One of my hobbies is role-playing games. Frequently, I have costumes created for these events.

The costume for my roll as Giovanni Villanova was pieced together from various specialty stores. It is a typical outfit of a Spanish landowner of the period.

The hand-made costume for The Caliph was based on an artist's rendition of a French nobleman.

Both images below were taken by my good friend, the fine art photographer Randall Siefert. Clicking on either photo will open a popup window of a larger image.
