Firefly - Jayne Cobb Costume

This costume was completed in April of 2013
and worn at Mobicon 2013, DragonCon 2013, and Wizard World 2014. 

I absolutely love Firefly and my favorite character is without a doubt the bring a grenade to a knife fight mercenary, Jayne Cobb. Yet it wasn't until I saw the Karen Hallion drawing (posted below) 

that I actually wanted to cosplay as Jayne.

Drawing by Karen Hallion

 At first I replicated the drawing... 

And then I decided to make it my own...

Assassin's Creed - Wild Western Assassin Costume

I wanted to have an Assassin's Creed costume but wanted to make one of my own design. 

I decided to do a Wild Western themed assassin that had a few influences from The Dark Tower. 

I did all the leatherwork (spur straps, hidden blade bracer, belt and holsters). The hooded jacket was an old duster that I dyed and handstitched the western themed suede trim (adding the pointed hood in the process). The buckle and custom hidden blade was made by Ammnra Creations. 

The rest was purchased and/or modified.

This costume was completed in July of 2013
and worn at SDCC 2013, DragonCon 2013, and DragonCon 2014.
