The Flash Costume

Commission: "On a budget"

This another costume made for a non-deviantart commissioner.  It is a "on a budget commission" and semi-detailed costume.

This was the first time I made a superhero costume and I didn't have a clue how to make it. My first choice for the fabric was spandex but the commissioner requested a non-spandex costume, so,  I had to find a different type of fabric.   I didn't know what would work well for a superhero costume. At the end I bought a fabric with 3% of lycra to have a moderate stretch.  

The cowl/mask was the one thing that was a pain in the neck to make. I had to made it two times. But at the end it was a lot of fun to make and the best thing is to know that the boy was happy with the costume.
