Fullmetal Alchemist Cosplay Help

[cindchan]

I looked through the Search option and couldn't find anything to help me. So if there is a post out there that answers my question, kindly point me in the right direction.

My best friend put across the challenge to me to make a Hawkeye costume from FMA. She's one of the military people, if you don't know who she is. I need help with the costume. I know there are many cosplayers out there who have done the military costume. So if you are one of those cosplayers, I need your help. Could you please inform me on what pattern and material you used? How did you make the tails?

Thanks!!
