Hello everybody!! Today it’s time to write about my Morrigan necklace so let’s go!

To make the pattern, I wrapped myself in plastic and masking tape to get a basic shape. I drew its shape with its details and I cut it out to obtain the pieces.
As always, I just made one half to make it symmetrical later.
I made most of the necklace using Worbla but the pendant, that was the same from DAO and I already had its mold. I made the necklace base with a Worbla sheet and I shaped it with the heat gun.
Then I cut the strips and the leaf shaped ornaments and I stuck them using the heat gun again. The smaller blue ornaments were made using thin craft foam.
I glued the polyurethane resin pendant with epoxi glue.
I primed the collar with a couple wood glue layers and priming spray. I hate priming Worbla as it’s got a terrible surface. I hate its texture. It needs a lot of work to smooth it out.
After priming, I had to sand it conscientiously till it looked smooth enough.

Once the surface was ready, I painted it with a layer of brown acrylic and, to finish it, I used my favourite golden paste.
And done!
I don’t quite like the final shape of this collar. I mean, it’s not bad, but I’d like it to be a litle wider. I was in a rush while making this costume, so I didn’t have time to remake it.
Anyway, I hope you find this tutorial useful.
As always, you can follow me on my social media and feel free to ask me anything in the comments below.
