Hi it's Ainlina ! Let's go for a new video !
We'll make Samus' catsuit today.
I wanted to show you how to make catsuit with 4-ways fabrics, I use only 4-ways stretch spandex in this video !
For the props : gun, bracelets, wig etc, I'll make another video in February.
Today I show you how to make the catsuit only.
It you don't use 4way-stretch fabric, this video isn't really suit for you =)
It's a bit more difficult if it's only 2-way stretch !
You can use this tutorial for other characters like comics one, or video games or animes/mangas one !
For Samus I used 170cm of light blue, but it was a bit too short so take 2m, you'll see I got some seams on the wrists and ankles.
It's not bad for Samus because she has accessorizes there, but if you don't want some take 2m of fabric.
I'm 175 tall for 51kg, so you might need more or less. It depends of your body shape and height.
But I think 2m should suit to almost everyone.
If you're short, Ithink you can take less tho.
For the other blue fabric, I just took 1m, it was perfect.
For the seams, you'll see I use a sewing machine, but it's better to use a serger but I just don't have one =)
aaand let's go !
For the pattern, you'll need some fabric or paper, cisors and all.
I lie down on the floor and a friend drew my body shape on a cheap fabric,
Then I verify all the measurements with my own one, to make sure it's good.
Then I cut it.
And I check on myself that it seems good.
Then let's go for the catsuit ! You'll need your fabric and pattern of course.
Spread well on the floor your fabric, and pin your pattern. Spandex is really fluid so you have to make sure it stay in place.
Then I pin the whole body, without the sleeves and collar etc.
And then I sew it with a triple-stitch because Idon't need it to be stretch.
I use 2 stitchs : a triple one, and a stretch one. It just depends if I want the seams to be stretch or strong.
Look like this at this point, I cut in the back for the zip.
Then I pin the pattern of the dark blue pieces on me, to "draw" the pattern on me.
Only on 1 side because it's symmetrical.
Then I correct the drawings etc on the floor because I4m a bit messy when I look in the mirror.
And check your reference image so you don't make mistakes !
Then  I cut all the parts. Take your time in order to not make some mistakes.
This is when I doens't look like a catsuit anymore, there are pieces everywhere !
Don't throw away the pieces, you are going to use it as a pattern for the other fabric.
And make sure it's symmetrical.
Then I use the pieces I just cut to pattern my dark blue fabric with it.
Pin everything well in order to make sure it doesn't slip away.
Then I pin the dark blue on the light blue, 
You'll need some patience, it's quite long, especially if you have a lot of curves and angles like me.
And make sure you don't pin the wrong side etc etc, because it's easy to be wrong when it doesn't look like a catsuit at all !
I sew everything with the stretch-stitch so it's stay stretch when I put the costume on.
I'm making piece by piece in order to not mix up all my different pieces and parts, it's easier to built it like this than everything in the same time.
I made the thorax, and then the legs, and etc etc
Take your time on this part, and it'll look like this :
I didn't put the zip yet because the dark blue fabric is really stretchy in fact.
Then, she has some pink pieces, so I cut everything in double in order to line these, so it's thicker.
She got this on the back and on the breast.
Then I pin the invisible zip in the back,
and I sew the zip. It was quite long because I had to make sure the different parts join well when I close it.
Then the gloves ! I don't cut a hand shape in fact, Ithink it's easier to sew when It's a rectangle, and I cut the fabric after the sewing. 
When you cut your gloves, pink the seam (you cut perpendicularly to the seam) for the curves shape.
Then I fix the gloves on the catsuit, 
I forgot to film for the foot part, but I used the same techniques as in my 1st video, go check it out !
I use a stretch stitch to fix my gloves.
And finally, you sew the collar to the catsuit !
I just cut a rectangle folded on itself in order to not have an apparent hem.
And now the result ! I don't have wig or makeup for Samus, I just show you the catsuit.
You can't even see the seams on the wrists and ankles !
And the crash-test succeed, I can do whatever I want with it it won't crack !
And it's finished ! Thanks for watching, I hope you liked it,
