Now Roy, Stop picking on Edward.

This costume is my pride and joy! This isn't even the most recent picture of it! I made everything you can see, except the pants. The boots are heavily modified combat boots, the red jacket was made from a pattern in a Japanese cosplay magazine. The black jacket is a heavily modified woman's jacket pattern. (I had to take the darts out... so hard..) I drafted up the black t-shirt so the neck would be where I wanted it. I made the gloves so they would have the signature edge that you see in the artwork, and also so they would fit my tiny hands. The clasp is made from sculpy and attached with four hat pins, and the belt is hand made from real leather that I dyed myself. I also styled the wig myself. I'm not sure if you can really see in this picture, but I have yellow custom contact as well.

I also made Roy and Riza's costumes. It's my friends Xan and Vazor. Making the patterns took the longest time. The fabric is a wool blend, and the belt and the front thicker grey sections are made from leather.

Wow. All of these costumes are really fantastic. The fabrics really show that you've studied the original images extensively to find what not only matches colors, but is representative of the weight and texture of the fabric! Props for all the research! It really shows!
Working in theater, (even though I am NOT a costumer. ;.; I can't sew well to save my life) I can't help but cringe every time I see a red-satin coat for Ed, when more likely, given the general placement of their fictional country and its parallels, and the parallels of the time period, it'd almost certainly be wool. xD
Also-- FANTASTIC job on the belt!!

Thank you *so* much for appreciating my detail! I put in *so* much effort into finding all my fabrics. I am sad to report that I have lost that particular Ed coat, but I have make a suitable replacement. I even added pockets to the new one! Also, the blue twill for Riza and Roy is no longer available from the people I ordered it from. I really wanted to make more uniforms, but I'm not sure I will now, since the fabrics won't match....
As for the belt, part of the credit goes to a fellow ed cosplayer. She did hers first, and then sent me a how-to, allowing me to take advantage of her experience, and thus make my first attempt even better!
