Yes it is a lot lacing 99centtaco, average calculation is around over 40 feet of lacing of all the Snake Eyes items , including pockets, gun holster ect......
When i do the double leather lacing, one feet long, it takes me about two hours to do it, depend how happy i'm in that moment :wacko, multiply by "40" , yes "80 hours" of lacing on you free time because i'm busy father , student and worker, on the firts two hours you start hate the needle and the leather:angry. But the result is pretty.
I just counting the hours of leather lacing, not the time of cutting all the leather parts, stiching holes made by CHISEL and a hammer, (make sure the holes are on the straight line), glue, velcro ect.........
But i almost done, except for some details, the belt, and pockets. But for the premier of the movie i will use a black military belt with nylon pockets, they look ok, in that way when i have extra time i will make the rest of the leather parts.
I have been working on this costume on researh and hand on by seven months now.:wacko
