Hood and shoulders (and ears!) done. The hood is made of layers of craft foam and painted. Ears are paperclay and glued onto the hood. Still need to add the ponytail, but I think I might want a new wig first. (Thinking the Luthien from Arda + ponytail clip in pale blond).

My only problem with the hood is that the shuffling of the foam against my shoulders makes it very hard to hear anything, ah well.
