Witcher 3 Geralt of Rivia Costume

Del Nero Designs is excited to announce that we have been commissioned to build Geralt of Rivia’s Costume from Witcher 3. We will be building the entire costume minus the swords (which may be commissioned later). Once completed components such as the Chest Armor and gloves may be offered separately and will be listed in my store as the build goes.

Update 11/14/15
Work on My Witcher 3 Geralt of Rivia Costume has begun. I am starting with the Silver Sword.Given to Geralt at the beginning of Chapter II to fight The Beast of the Sewers. A silver sword is one of the two main tools of the witcher. It is a delicate blade only used against creatures who are vulnerable to silver, such as the undead and most types of monsters. It is light enough to be wielded in only one hand, leaving the other hand free for another weapon or for the casting of Signs.

The witcher’s silver blade actually has a steel core which is plated with a thick layer of silver which is lethal to magical beasts. This weapon was made specifically for slaying monsters born of magic, those which can not be hurt with common steel weapons.

Started working on the Witcher 3 Geralt of Rivia Costume leather chest armor and chain-mail pauldrons. Started by forming a chest on my Male dress form and molding wet leather around it. Once dry I refined the shape and hand dyed and stitched it. Still need to bind the edges, add eyelits, straps and buckles.
The Pauldron’s have been started hand stitching is required to bind the chain-mail to the leather base and there is all the hand whipped stitching on the top portion. Hours of work..but can be done while watching TV so time goes by quickly. See images below:
