metal corset 2

This is the metal corset that I just finished... about 75 hours in total. It is fitted to me but it is adjustable for the most part. It is made entirely out of 18ga. brass and 20 ga. copper. Everything was hand textured and formed. The rivets were all hand made as well (all 135+). and the front panel is acid etched. It is lined with wool felt in an effort to make it more comfortable, which was probably completely futile, so it will mostly be a sculptural piece.

I hope to get some better photos of it in the near future on a body because it looks much better when it is worn.
