Submitted By Joey Lopez
From Joey, "The armor is created from paper mache mash that was formed over a plaster cast of my daughter's torso. The chakram (frisbee thing) was also made from paper mache. I made the rest of the costume from an old leather duster purchased from a thrift store. I cut the duster and salvaged enough leather to create the skirt, gauntlets, arm bracers and shoulder armor."
