Materials and Tools:
- black jumpsuit
- waist gun holster
- leg gun holsters
- toy guns
- toy bullets
- wig
- gloves
- black boots
- black elastic fabric (belt)
- red duct tape
- X-ACTO knife
- black spray paint
Instructions:
1. Spray paint the bullets black and let dry.
2. Fold over a piece of the red duct tape onto itself and use the X-ACTO knife to cut out the shape of the belt buckle. Attach this to the black elastic or fabric you have for your belt, using fashion tape or hot glue. You can attach the belt using a safety pin.
3. Layer your accessories over the jumpsuit and then attach the bullet pieces by unlinking and relinking them on your arms to fit.
4. Style your wig using a bristle brush and hairspray to keep the shape.
It's all about Black Widow's moves.
Practicing your high kick is a must!
And that Blue Steel puckered lip face. Rosee is nailing it!
