Ok well quite a few of you remember my old topic of me working on Neytiri.. but me being a dumb dumb somtimes, I deleted it.. yeah dumb dumb move. lol Anyways so Im going to repost some of the old stuff back up (Including new) As well as my new Tipani armor from the Avatar Game. (decided to slap them together sense its Avatar related)

Well here is Neytiri..

(old stuff)
















The suit (which is now finished)






NEW**



Wig with ears


~~~

Ok now for my Tipani armor, I will be using the same tail, wig/ears, an skin. Granted its a different character nick named Abel Ryder. There really is no need for me to remake everything in that regards.

ok so here is the references...





So I started off with the mask an will be continuing from there, I might make a few slight changes to the design, but here is a almost finished mask






Sorry for the repost x_x

Wow, this is looking awesome Kish!! All the necklaces and accessories look really cool.
I loved that armor from the game! I always thought it was the coolest! And I can tell that the face is going to look so realistic! Keep up the good work, I want to see more!!
~Akisha~
Thanks =D Yeah the Eyktan Nawma armor was my favorite as well. It didnt look corny like some of those were XD. But I will keep ya'll posted. I have my tail made for Neytiri, just need to paint the stripes an add the tail wrap (Im so sick of painting stripes though) I should be getting a photoshoot done for Neytiri really soon.

Hey girl you know i have been waiting to see where you go with this.One suggestion i know you have problems with latex,but wearing contact lenes would really accent you face makeup.You well know that the strongest detail to thier face was their eyes.Check out EXOTICLENCES.COM you dont need a eye exam and they are fairly priced.They have some that would work great.Take care and good luck
~Akisha~
Thanks for the compliments everybody!! Well I had my photo shoot, I was VERY happy how well my make up stayed on. Though it made me realize I need to make my stripes a bit darker. But it was about 90 degrees an it didnt melt off my face. I also need to get a good makeup for my dots. My white eyeliner didnt work. But otherwise Im very happy (I also need to finish the tail wrap on the loin cloth an tack down the leather on the tail. (Ive done a bit of a ceremonial outfit, hence the Moat like wings) Anyways enough blabbing here it is!!

Warning.. lots of pics..















Now these are my faves..













Wooo what a shoot!! I want to thank my brother for helping me yet again.. now its on to my Tipani armor

I've never seen Avatar, Akisha, but that costume looks SUPERB!!! you really nailed the look down to a T. Awesome work, hope your other costumes are just as good as this one if not even better.

You should keep me posted up on your work.. I would love it =)

Absolutely wonderful. Well done.

Just a thought (and not cheap) but have you considered contacts? They might put it over the top to the "untouchable" status smile.gif Either way, fantastic design and detail.

~Akisha~
Thanks Jehdin! Yeah I have looked into getting contacts. I know a site was just suggested to me for getting contacts without getting a prescription, but Im wanting to do it the right way. My sight is off a little anyways, so I will look into it when I get my eyes checked.

Thanks for the compliments everybody!! bigthumb.gif I cant wait till october

Alas...
PANIK33

Easily the best Na'vi costume I've seen

All you need to do is grow 10ft tall and it will be perfect
~Akisha~

thanks you guys. I really appreciate all the compliments ^_^

I think the only thing that could use improvement is the wig for some reason at least to me it looks a little odd, but other than that it looks great!!

Ive done some touch ups with the edges around the ears, so the ears look a bit better, an one reason it looks kinda funky is the hair in the back is actually shorter then the hair in the front x_x I dont know why it was made that way, but thanks for pointing that out =D I'll see what I can do to improve on that. Maybe rearrange some flowers an straighten out the cap some when Im wearing it
