Hello. Already planning my aeronaut 's captain coat for Dragoncon. (My god I'll need a hat!) My book is currently on loan amoungnst my brood and a second on the way to dissect for costuming. Alot of his descriptions are vague, relying on the reader to provide the imagery. The gauntlet requires room around the arm but can be worn under a coat, but atop a shirt to slow burns. Leather to hold and copper spiraling around encasing the palm and arm/forearm (control? energy transfer which the crystal amplifies?) Again, the sneaky depends on reader supplied imagery. Clothing roughly Edwardian twisted for upper air streams (spires are 10,000 feet tall- almost 2 miles)and LOTS of steps. When talking to my cosplayer, they remarked "like your wind thingys in the flower bed?" when I described the gauntlet. I find that as good as any place to start. It's the goggles that are giving me issues on design and wear ability (with a HAT! A largish hat?).
