COSTUME: Handmade
Yes, I know nowadays he sports a short cloak and bits of gold, but this is the Black Panther I knew in my childhood... the nice easy one to customise ;-)
Started by cutting down the head band on the Falcon's head. Then slapped on the milliput... IMHO, one of my best sculpted cowls yet.
Costume was easy - my straightforward two-piece outfit with a vinyl belt. What doesn't show up terribly well in these pics are his glove cuffs and boots, made out of black courdoroy to try to reproduce the lined effect of the comicbook.
