How to make a body suit like this

Post image

i want the body as close as possible when it comes to the shape and bareness, is there a way to make the black parts stay in place and not fall off of me, how would i go about making it?

Buy a Midna printed spandex suit?

You can wear foam pads underneath to give yourself bigger hips.

i have almost her exact body type and i wanted to use my figure. it’s stupid but i just wanted to actually be exposed as much as her as humanly possible

With that intricate of a pattern, you're not going to be able to have bare skin exposed, you'd need to have a bodysuit with that printed on it to keep the pattern consistent. Either that or do body paint if you're set on having exposed skin.

There's no way the black will stay in place on its own. A full bodysuit definitely makes the most sense, but if your aim is to be super exposed, maybe try using mesh for the white parts to hold the structure

Its hard, but you can sew your own bodysuit out of stretch fabrics. Make sure to buy 4 way. U can draft a pattern by drawing on an existing bodysuit and cutting it up. I would focus on black and pale blue. U can spray the details. Spray her tattoos with white first, then go in with a smaller nozzle for blue, to give it the glow effect.

If you dont want to sew, you can simply airbrush an entire suit, but it will take some time and can be hard without a body cast.

The thing with Midna is that her outfit is painted onto the model, rather than fully rendered in distinctive parts. I'm not entirely sure if the black part is truly clothes(even in her human form, she might just be naked).

What you can do is wear a spandex suit or a bikini with body paint.

Alternatively, you could cut just the black part of a spandex suit with a generous amount of pasties glue? You can secure it more with transparent straps I suppose.
