Research surrounding the project
Overview of development of ideas, based on Victorian aspects. 
Development of ideas for the Widow and Victim concepts.
Sculpting testers with clay.
Playing with impact points using clay and an airbrush. 
Initial sculpt for mask.
Initial paintwork design. 
However, I found this to be too flesh coloured for the conecpt.

Fabricted the costume and small details for the hands. 
Sadly I was unable to take many proof images of this.
