Waxed Clothes

These are some photos of the actual clothes we plan on using for the final piece.
The black shirt was hand sewn by Chris out of recycled fabric. We dipped it in wax and then moulded it into a suitable shape. Once it was dried we painted it using white acrylic to make it look more distressed.
The checked shirt was bought from a charity shop, it was dipped in wax and shaped. However the group feels that it needs more wax added to make it look less patchy.

What next? We plan to wax another item of clothing to make a full outfit and then paint into the garments more.
