Hey all.

Same basic recipe as before, with two exceptions. 1) I sculpted the chest emblem flat and painted it, instead of the the 3-D like last time. And 2), I shaped the cape differently. I call it the Snape-cape. Dorky, I know, but I borrowed Snape's cape style from those Potter flicks. The ends of the cape aren't as long as the back center. The bonus is that it's more poseable, because of the shape and the creases I lock in, and it holds the folds and layers much more nicely. I also did a cleaner job with the yellow 'S' emblem on the back.

Critque away!

Ima huge fan of your cape style & this one rocks as usual. What type of cloth did you use? Also beautiful paintjob, the blue really pops.

Hey bro! The cloth is some generic fabric I get at JOANN'S (YES, JoAnn's) for like a couple bucks a yard. It's the stuff on the roll.
