Omega Ruby / Alpha Sapphire Mega Bracelets!

I promised I’d post a semi-tutorial / WIP pictures eventually…

I went through a lot of iterations to get what I wanted, you can see the prototyping in the initial images until I finally ran out of time and just had to go with it.

The first one was made from wonderflex with 12 gauge aluminum for the frame. Its very durable, but its also lumpy and I feel like I got the color way too dark.

The second one is EVA foam with a 20 gauge floral wire inlay. Coat it with spray on plastidip and then painted. I also added an elastic band on the inside to keep it in place, it doesn’t stay on nearly as well as the other one did without the band, but it looks a lot nicer. The color is a bit lighter than I would like but its pretty close to the source art.
