A really good friend of mine is the lead artist on the video game Brawlhalla. he designs characters, backgrounds, weapons, etc. (He’s also the guy who drew the artwork for my arcade machine.) His team goes to all of the major video game shows and has a booth setup where people can come play the game. They asked me to make a costume piece from the game that they could take with them!
They chose the character Bödvar, who looks like a viking with a horned helm. This piece would be quick and easy for someone to throw on and quickly take a photo. Check out how I made it!
