I like this alot! I don't think many people think about this. But in the original Tomb Raider games, her hair color was a lighter shade of brown. Which you have, and this makes me happy, since Tomb Raider Legend has influenced many to be wearing their hair, not only as an off shade of the brown and a bit closer to an amber, but in a ponytail instead of her original, trademark braid.

I am hoping to go in the same outfit to a con next month! May I please ask you about the straps/holster on your leg? Did you buy them or make them yourself? And details? This is the only problem I think I may have. :) I hope I am not causing you any trouble. <3

Thank you so much! Ah, I must admit I gave little thought to my hair color -- I had intended this to be an "easy" cosplay and just used my own hair in its natural color... doesn't it figure it wound up being as complicated as anything lol! (That's just the way I cosplay, I guess haha...)

No trouble at all, I love trying to help my fellow cosplayers out :heart: Let's see, I did make all of the belts/straps/holsters myself... I used cheap black vinyl from the upholstery section of the fabric store -- the stuff with a white, almost felt-like base and then a thin layer of plastic/vinyl on top. To make the patterns for the main belt around the hips, and then the two straps that clip on to that, I made a strip of newspaper and just folded and snipped at it until it curved nicely and laid about as flat as it was going to lol. The straps that go around the legs are just straight strips, originally velcro'd together, but I found that they stayed in place better if I just stitched them into a ring instead of leaving them adjustable. The holsters are rounded pieces of plastic canvas (you could use anything somewhat firm, even cardboard if you wanted) covered in the vinyl, with little velcro straps hand-sewn to them, and then the whole thing is hand-sewn to the appropriate leg straps. All the straps are made of two pieces of vinyl sewn into a tube, turned right-side out, and topstitched so they lay flat. If you go with this method, TAKE YOUR TIME when turning the skinnier straps, especially the curved ones, because they can be REALLY tricky.

Sorry for the late reply, I hope this can still help! Best of luck and have fun! :D
