Discord Cosplay Part 6 - Pants

Yeah, part 6 of the Discord costume process. This is how I made the pants, it will probably not be a very long post. The only posts for this costume I have left is how I made the shoes and the extra accessories.

The pants were really easy to make all I used was:
- Pair of skinny jeans
- Short fur fabric
- Stanley knife
- Hot glue
- A friend :)
- A long television series of your choice (Mine was Grimm Season 1)

So grabbing my jeans I folded my jeans in half so that you see the backside of one whole leg and laid it flat over the fur (NOTE: I made sure that the fur direction was down my leg). I traced the out line and then re-folded my pants so that the front part of the leg was facing out and traced this onto the fur. I marked which was the front and the back. I cut out the pieces and went onto the next step.

I invited a friend over started watching Grimm. Then putting on the jeans I had my friend hot glue *VERY CAREFULLY* the sides of the fur pieces along the seams of the jeans. That's all it took to make the jeans but it took a long time because we were doing it carefully. This is probably not the safest method but it was effective in that the fur sits correctly on my leg without bunching up too much. Also while we where gluing we avoided the area where the belt loops where because I needed to be able to take on and off a belt.


AND there you have it the pants. Sorry it was such a short post but tomorrow's should be longer, It's all about how I made the shoes.
