Ahsoka Tano

From Star Wars Rebels

Why Ahsoka?

Ahsoka Tano, a Togruta female, was the Padawan learner to Anakin Skywalker and a hero of the Clone Wars. Alongside Anakin, she grew from headstrong student into a mature leader. But her destiny laid along a different path than the Jedi.

What can I say about Ahsoka? There is so much strength and wisdom within this character, especially when we meet her again in Rebels. She had suffered from trauma, the death of her close friends, the destruction of her world with Order 66. And yet, she still seeks to do the right thing and to push forward to be true to herself.

How It Was Made

First and formost, I had this beautiful headpiece from Twi'lek Paradise. It was a full latex pull and the crown was made from leather.

The dress was made from a four way stretch microfiber. Brown leggings with a suede belt for texture was very important to break up and add dimension to the look.

All the armor pieces were created from craft foam purely for the purpose of mobility and comfort. I knew I could give the texture to appear like leather, but have it be the foam. I got the patterning from the Team Tano group on Facebook and made some modifications to the look so that it was scaled properly to my sizing.

The lightsabers were from a seller on Etsy and are 3D printed.
