I'll definitely return as Momiji Sohma with the giant lollipop and freaking be on time for the chess pre-meet!! >:C Sucks being late!! Meilin Li might come with me (It's for Sakura Con 2013) and I'll do a unique Hitsugaya Toushirou cosplay!
This next year will be a challenging one with wigs because I'll not only do one with high pigtails, but I want to have a really thick double wig for Hitsugaya!
And, for the first time, I'll be cosplaying the con's mascot!! I'll be the boy and my sister as the girl!
I have finally started planning my Sailor Uranus cosplay!!

I might enter in the all ages, but I'm not sure if I'd be accepted as a piece at Kumoricon 2013 if I was in Sakura con's chess game.. :<  I might stage ninja again (I did it last year and had a blast)!!

I've got it planned xD I had these plans on day 2 this year. My spy was supposed to be done this year, but I couldn't get the fabric until the Saturday before con, and didn't have enough time to finish it. Morrigan has been planned since last year, Espeon was an idea prior to con that just got set for next year, and GLaDOS is because my human version sort of... failed miserably this year xD

I started planning the second day of Con, only two are subject to possible change.
I've ordered shoulder patches for my Stargate uniform and they'll be here soon, I'm going to put money in my account so I can order my shirt for Fem(Human)!Teemo.

Amy Pond is one that I've been wanting to do but I don't know if I can and Fem!Tobuscus was a side thought... Does anybody think I should go through with it? It'd be pretty easy, but I need to find converse heelies.... My friend agreed to a possible Fem!Pewdiepie and Fem!Tobuscus team... But I'm still thinking on that one.

Post by: KinkyFriedChicken on September 05, 2012, 10:37:54 pm
I actually just got done planning everything, there are still a few "if, ands or buts" to sort out but so far I've had half of a few already made.

My full cosplay list for 2013:
Sherry Birkin [Resident Evil 6] - 50%
Chain Chomp Gijinka [Mario] - 0% (Design already made)
Outset Island Link [Wind Waker] - 25%
Rover Gijinka [Animal Crossing] - 0% (Design made)
Double [Skullgirls] - 100% (Need to be fixed slightly, but otherwise done)

And my possibility cosplay is Ryth from Jet Set Radio Future!

This is gonna span between 3 cons thank god. x D

Sailor Pluto, most likely her lab coat variation (Sailor Moon)
Lina Inverse (The Slayers)
Mamoru Kusanagi (Blue Seed)

I didn't go day 3 of 2012, and I missed a guy cosplaying Hayashi Kato from the Green Hornet.
Darn (((( =( )))) sad now... I hope someone knows who he is...

I went as Mulan Kato last year, and for sure am going to improve my cosplay and go as her again next year. I would love to cosplay with that other Kato from day 3.  :-X
Also I'm thinking of going as one of my OC's, a French magical musketeer-type cosplay. I got most of that ready already too.

OC's don't get attention, but that's totally fine with me.

I can't wait to go next year!

I haven't made any giant plans, but I do have plans for what to work on after I get a job.

Link : tunic & hat, find where his sword went
Emil : remake the shirt and modify for new shoes
Roxas : get new shoes and make them properly
Yuna/Lenne : remake the shirt out of the easier fabric

In short, buy a lot of muslin and get to tracing ;.;

oh god guys. i have options.

my two current dream costumes are fem(ish)!alex mercer, bunny version based on this (http://devlinne.deviantart.com/gallery/?offset=24#/d2g1lnd) fanart.

the other dream costume is tribalstuck!gamzee makara, but i have my doubts about that costume because of the amount of skin showing. it'd be pretty hard to paint, and i just don't know if i want to deal with that.

and there's like, a million other options for other costumes.

what am i doing with my life.

Title: Re: 2013 Cosplay Progress Thread
Post by: bunny_jean on September 07, 2012, 12:09:44 pm
Okay, so I think I've decided:
Sakuracon 2013:
Spellthief skin Lux- League of Legends (need to make/acquire the whole thing)
Riza Hawkeye- Fullmetal Alchemist (need to get and style a wig, maybe add other details)
Kuranosuke Koibuchi- Princess Jellyfish (complete, might get flats to wear instead of heals >_<)

Kumoricon 2013:
Shiro- Deadman Wonderland (materials acquired, need a pattern, needs to be sewn, need wig/contacts/other makeup)
Sophie Hatter- Howl's Moving Castle (complete, might get a different wig)
Cubone gijinka- Pokemon (need to design outfit and do everything else)

I might also add in Natsume from Mawaru Penguindrum somewhere and a Sailor Moon Stars character....

I have my plans mostly set in stone, debating on doing one more.   I'll also probably bring Unohana back if there's a Bleach photoshoot....I would just need to redo the wig as it was giving me all sorts of grief.

Got my plans pretty much set. Though the days may change depending on somethings.

Hope to start on Aqua soon, as well as start planning to make my boyfriend's Terra costume. My sister hopefully can help with the armor pieces of both costumes since she's an amazing armor/prop maker.. XP

For Kanna I have the kimono pattern. Just gotta find a simple white fabric and just start planning and sewing and stuff...

For Leela, I'm just going to Goodwill and finding pieces for that.

Gotta figure out eye contacts this year, cause I've never worn any... >.> I need ones to black out my eyes, and blue eye color ones....

I'm kind of cutting back this year because I want to save some money because collegeeeeeeeee. So I'm only doing God Tier!Karkat for Sakura-Con, and that's partly done already. I bought and modified the shoes, and ordered the pants and both shirts. I need to make my horns, fuss around with my wig some, make the hood/cape, paint the symbol on the shirt, and mess around with makeup. I might get mesh whiteout contacts? Depends on price, mostly. We'll see.

All of my cosplays for next year are listed in my signature xD
My OC, Cain.
Rin Okumura
and Satan, the controversial page on Facebook.

So far... I only have the pants for Cain. But I know where I'm gonna get everything else. Except for the red body paint for Satan. ;-;

So, um... does anyone know where I could red the body paint?
And how I should make the blue-flame horns for Rin?

One of them was the wrong one. Instead of the earth symbol I got a star trek shoulder patch (as I was told by my father, who is more acquainted with that show than I) so now I'm waiting to receive my correct one... Should be here in just a few days~
I start work on tuesday so next update will be after my pay day, when I order things for Fem!Teemo!~

Post by: bunny_jean on September 12, 2012, 07:13:43 pm
Changed my line-up a bit already. lol New version is in my sig.

Got a bodysuit pattern that I think I will be able to alter for Shiro (her's doesn't have a center front/center back seam, it has princess seams and I'll have to do a crotch gusset. ;_;). And I have all of the materials for her, although I'm not 100% happy with the pink I got (it was NOT the same color as the swatch I was sent), so I might try some RIT color remover or bleach on it (in swatches of course), to see if I can make it a little lighter. Then I just need to get a wig (I got one but decided I wanted a longer one), red contacts, and white mascara.

Also got a leotard pattern for Eternal Sailor Uranus. A whole group of my friends and friends of friends are doing a whole group from the Sailor Moon Stars arc, and I'm going to be in charge of the leotards and general organization of tasks. I'm going to be altering the pattern, so I need to make a prototype before I make everyone else's.

Other than that I've been making lists and doing pattern research. :3

I was hoping someone would make a progress thread! XD
Well, I have no idea when It will be done, but for years now I've wanted to do some Marvel superhero cosplays, and I was very unsure of what I could do, or even pull off. I knew if I was going to do one it was going to have to have a really big connection with me as a character. After seeing the Avengers so many times, and dabbling in the comics, I've decided on the one cosplay I plan to work on over a long period of time.
This is going to be my baby.
This is going to be the one cosplay I make from scratch that will be so well made, that I could wear it to so many cons, that it will last forever.
So, for Kumori-con 2013, I'll be going as Captain America.
I've decided on the suit he wears in the Avengers, because I rather like it, But the few outfits he has in 'The first Avengers' I may make at a later time.
8D I'm going to be making his shield before anything, so I'll keep progress on it posted here.

Got my line up all ready.  Kagura and Velma I will be wearing to Sakuracon as well.  Tomorrow I start buying the materials to make Deunan Knutes weapons and her armor pieces.  In June I will be making a full body form, buy a Zentai suit for underneath and start building on that all summer.  Did the figuring in my head and this build will cost me about $400 to make.  Her night vision goggle will have electro luminesent wire so it will glow.  The ESWAT emblems and her short sword will get chromed as well.  The assult rifle is gonna get a laser sight put in.  no wig for that cosplay.  gonna get my hair cut and dyed to match.  Entering that cosplay into the cosplay contest for sure.  I have a friend that is gonna build Brearios as well.  He has already started making his 5 1/2 foot long assult "cannon"

Already have Kagura's fans, they just need to be painted and dyed.  I also found a good cosplay site that has an awesome Kagura kimono and wig that I will buy with my tax return.  As for Velma she should be pretty easy to put together and I will have to find a good brown wig for her.

I might bring out Desert Punk again next year and this time I won't forget his cape at home.  LOL

Well, I finally made some progress on Fluttershy (yay.)

So my main plan for her is to make a cute, yellow sundress for her with leggings (either brown or yellow...). I was at my local Joanne's about a week or two ago and I found a good dress pattern for her. Since I plan on actually losing weight for next year (about 20-30 lbs.) I'm going to wait on making the actual dress until I meet my goal.

Medic, I haven't started yet (because of my diet plan.). However I am looking for a lab coat pattern that I can use. I may as well work on the props (ubergun, medipack, Archimedes...) I need, which WILL take time (especially the ubergun. Uhg...)

Already have Kagura's fans, they just need to be painted and dyed.  I also found a good cosplay site that has an awesome Kagura kimono and wig that I will buy with my tax return.  As for Velma she should be pretty easy to put together and I will have to find a good brown wig for her.

I might bring out Desert Punk again next year and this time I won't forget his cape at home.  LOL

I'm making a costume from Phantom of the Opera for Halloween (Christine's Masquerade Dress for those familiar with ALW stage show.) Though I'm not sure if I should wear it at k-con. Mostly for lack of noticeably. xP

I think once again I have planed way too much to work on this year

Remilia Scarlet from The Touhou Project (I'm also making my friend's Flandre costume)
Trainer Red from Pokemon
and
My Sailor Moon OC Sailor Cosmic

Luckily I'll have most of Red finished way before Con since it's my Halloween Costume, I got some fabric for Sailor Cosmic already, and I'm reusing a Alice Human Sacrifice Meiko dress my mom made a few years back for Flandre! But the wings for two Touhou costumes will be hard.
Then I got my plans for Wonder Northwest! Which are going to be hard because I'll be trying to work with lights for the first time

You're gonna have fun carrying that thing around all day.  I would use a sheet of fosshape and use the sled as a mold to get the correct shape.  Then use resin to harden it even further.  Then I would use colored chrom to paint it and add the arm straps underneath.

But using a saucer sled...Awesome idea!  Perfect shape.

I reason I'm using the seld itself and not using it as a mold like you suggest, is because If I use actual metal, it looks more authentic. I plan on this costume being the height of my cosplay career, the best I have made to date, so I'm looking to make it perfect, plus, all the working out that I'll be doing to get the body shape I want, Pffft, carrying a 5 pound thing on my arm shouldn't be a problem.

I agree, a Dremel I could use in many different ways. I'm excited to own one!

Queen Chrysalis (MLP)
Megara (Hercules)
Clare (Claymore)
Hokuto (Shikabane Hime)
Francesca Lucchini (Strike Witches)
Shiek (Zelda)
Kidagakash (Atlantis)

But now lets be realistic. The ones that have the highest probability of actually getting done are Yuffi, Chrysalis, Hokuto, Francesca, and possibly Clare if I don't go to Summer Camp.

As soon as my blank stencil sheets come in i can start making my Deunan Knute Assult rifle, side arm, and dagger.  They are out for Delivery today.  here's to luck that they leave it on my door step.  Woot!!

Just ordered a one gallon smoothcast resin yesterday that when mixed is 2 gallons of resin.  I should get a lot done with that.

I was commissioned to make 2 Death scythes, Lavi's hammer, Miranda's time weapon, Princess Zelda armor, and possibly some other stuff not to mention all my props and armor this year so that 2 gallons of resin will come in handy.  I'm stoked!!   ;D

Finished cutting and painting my mask for an eventual revision to my Sebastian cosplay.
Now all I have to do is acquire a hot glue gun or some other way to attach the tie strings to it.

I am going to make the bracelets the same way. I need to buy a mold to cast the gem on the neck and the gem for my wand is drying now. I hope I can get it out of the mold alright and it will look good. I may have put too much dye in the resin though and may have to redo it. Other than that I just need to sew the shawl and its done 8D

Thank you :3 It looks like I need to add one more tube after looking at refrences ^_^; Its very simple. I got plastic hollow tubes (like the flexible kind) and used spray paint in a cup so its liquid paint in the bottom (the spray is too much otherwise) and then I poured that paint into the plastic tubes. I then moved the paint around until the insides where fully coated and dumped out the rest.

I hope that wasn't too confusing. I still need to make the bracelets so if you want I can take pictures of how I did it.

Here this will help a lot. This is the tubbing I used. I poured the paint on the inside but you can paint the outside

I also got my wig yesterday. I just need to style the base and find a way to securly attach the ponytail and then I am very very close to being done. I also got a working mold for the gem at the end of the wand. I made one gem yesterday but the resin wasn't clear so it didn't have the red see-through look I wanted and now I have to buy other resin but I can also buy the mold to make the red gem on the necklace at the same time and that will be done

Here is a refrence picture btw

I started working on my head wings for Morrigan yesterday. I should get close to finishing them either today or tomorrow. Here is what they look like so far. They have latex drying on them so they are grey now but once it dies it will be black, then I just need to paint the webbing fuchsia then add a layer or two of clear latex then the finishing spray. I will also make the little spikes today and get them either attached or ready to be attached.

There are a couple cosplays I'm prioritizing- like Ran-Map(Kuro), Alyssa(FF13-2), and Silica(SAO)- so hopefully I'll get those done. I'm actually planning on wearing Ran-Mao to Sakura-Con, so that's a major priority. But other than planning, nothing is done! But I'm starting this weekend(hopefully) if I get my money.

Oh wow, I've been so busy with work haven't been able to do much of anything.
Well, while going through massive amounts of boxes looking for holiday decorations, I found a whole bunch of my uncles old army gear.

All of the shirts fit perfectly! Though I'm not going to dare with the pants...
I'll work on getting in shape to fit those... But in the mean time, I've got to sew on my Stargate patches to the shoulders of the shirt and then that'll be good for now.

Have yet to work on much of anything else... But I have a red sweater to use for back up if I can't put together the Kissogram outfit for Amy. Just need a black skirt...
Going to see if my friend can make some Teemo mushrooms for me. She's been working on plushies and since I have the money, I can just buy them off her to help with her costume.
Still questionable of the Tobuscus or Pewdiepie costumes. Might try again for elves if I can make the costumes in time.

My progress towards Bane begins today. The biggest step, the most important one, is weight loss. I will be eating correctly, cutting all junk, and working out daily as well.

Aside from the body work, I just found an ideal Bane mask that I can order from GCFX. I only have to decide which would be better, to buy it painted or paint it myself. I have little experience in painting details, so I'm not sure which way to go. I've got time though.

Here's what it should like:
http://cdn.crushable.com/files/2012/07/bane-tom.jpg (http://cdn.crushable.com/files/2012/07/bane-tom.jpg)

Here's what it looks like pre-painted:

The sculpt isn't perfect, but it is worlds better than I can do on my own. Comparing the images, I'm pretty sure I'll go with the unpainted mask and paint it myself. What do you all think?

Got my Ino skirt done and pieces cut out for the top and arm thingys. Also on the lookout for Zoro type pieces at thrift stores. So far I have a practice sword. Maybe I'll be kid Zoro for one of the days? Haven't decided yet.

I got my tights for Morrigan done this weekend. I haven't been able to work on her much since I haven't had money. I pretty much have everything I need to finish. I just need to find the time now. I will get a progress shot soon since pretty much the whole front of the costume is done minus the big wings.

I got the skirt and shirt of Ino done, as well as half of the bandaged short unitard thing she wears underneath (I'm actually trying to make it look like bandages, so lots and lots of hand sewing on the mannequin will be done this weekend). The arm bands and the headband are what I haven't started (and the hair, since I'll need lots of sun and lemon juice to lighten my natural blonde to her's). As far as Zoro, I have nothing except for a shortened list of wig possibilities and a knack for getting lost.

I can't like that Niki :P I am way to used to facebook.

I have some updates and a progress picture. I got the heart cut out on my top and my tights done for Morrigan. The feathers are just pinned on in the picture. I still need to add more latex to the body suit and trim the legs a bit higher in the back and its ready. I also want to take off the black straps and try putting in clear ones. I am also going to see how it holds up if I just use fashion tape to attach it to myself with no straps. All in all I am very happy with how it looks so far. And the mirror is very dirty x.x

Looming awesome thus far!

I haven't made much progress with my cosplay plans, other than getting a new Pinkie Pie wig, and talking to Nando about a possible special prop for it. I probably won't make any further progress until I get my tax return. I am also bouncing an idea around about changing male Pinkie from a raver to a soldier.

Well, I've dropped Fem!Tobuscus and instead added Jack Frost since I'm making the cosplay for the DVD release. Might drop Teemo, depending on if I have enough money for him. I've got to start on Amy here soon and I've got to order pants for Sam and sew on my patches.

Practicing painting frost on a cheap t-shirt, it came out fairly well. I've gotta find a better hoodie then the one I currently have, it ended up too light and I'd be afraid of dying it darker.
This is my first costume making from absolute scratch so I'm pleased with the progress so far.
I have to order a wig when I cash my check next week. That should be fun finding the right one.

I do have a Lilith for Sak. You should cosplay from it anyway. Its really fun wearing it.


More progress. I have all my wings cut, shaped, and the webbing attached. There is only three in this picture but I just finished my last big wing and the two small wings for Lilith are on the counter. Now time for the long process of adding latex. The white ones have two layers on them already and I think I am going to leave it at that till I get the black latex. I like how thin the webbing is and how it moves very easily and looks realistic. So once those dry I am going to turn them over and put the red on the back.

Having only played the first game, I find that none of the male characters would be worth cosplaying as, except for maybe Lord Raptor.  Along with sexy, I find Morrigan's outfit to be fun and creative, which is why I usually find favor in these cosplays.


toonafeesh, you'd make a good Lilith.  I agree that you should do it.

Holy crawdads everyone's cosplays are looking SO FAB right now!!

Kumoricon is still quite a ways off and it's not 100% I'll go (though damn I'm gonna try my hardest to!!)

Right now my plans for Sakuracon are Meenah, Aradiasprite, and Eridan.  Ones that go over well might be transfered to Kumoricon.  (Possibly Meenah again, def Aradiasprite assuming she doesn't flop orz)
I would also like to maybe add in some other cosplays, such as Pleinair or Paprika or something fun like that!  But still a ways for me.  XD

My current cosplay progress is as follows:

Meenah -- p much done, just waiting on white contacts.  I do need to do some repair, such as putting gems back on the bracelets and fixing up my trident.  (I'm trying to reinforce the tips, but I'm unsure what exactly I could use to give them proper support, maybe bondo or some sort of resin?  I'm currently asking around on cosplay.com for suggestions)

Aradiasprite - I've ordered and received the wig, only I'm pretty sure I got sent the wrong color, so I'm going to send it back to get inspected (I'm pretty darn sure I got sent maroon instead of apple red 8( ) - Hopefully it isn't the right one and I will get shipped back the wig I need, 'cause otherwise I'll have to buy a new one and this was already 50 bucks! XO
I have the base for the dress, but still need to collect materials for the sprite trail/tail.  I have ordered all the PAX and eye makeup I need for this, and already have the shoes and tights.

Eridan - I have his shirt sans symbol, glasses, and shoes.  I still need to make his cape, customize the rings, buy the wig, finish the scarf, and paint the pants.

After trying multiple ways to get that Mr. Popo eye effect I am finally caving and just decorating a pair of circular glasses to be used for pictures. Gotta paint the rest of the lenses and frames black. Finished my harem pants and am working on the detailing of the vest till I can go get the suede dye for my shoes and the fabric for my turban! Things are happily falling into place on this cosplay.

I would like to loose the flab around my stomach and love handles before SakuraCon, since I will be wearing this there.


Though I personally think you look great now, I am assuming that you're going to be Kida from the Disney version of Atlantis, so some loss might not be a bad idea.  Good luck in your goal!


:o    WHERE DID YOU FIND THOSE...?

I ordered them from Catzia. ---> http://www.catzia.com/ (http://www.catzia.com/)
They do run small though. I'm a size 7-7 1/2 so I ordered their 8 and its tight. These took about 2-3weeks to get here if i remember correctly.


Thank you!


*goes to look*


HOLY CRAP!!!  THEY HAVE MY SIZE!!!  ...maybe I should go up one...?

Can't decide which gold ribbon to use on my Mr. Popo vest. The colors are a little off on the gold cause of the lighting, but I would really appreciate some input!
The right side has thinner wavy gold and the left has a thicker straight gold.

I would choose the straight gold, or see if you can get some gold fabric to make bias tape out of (rather than using ribbon). Bias tape covers the whole edge, and works around the curves of the armscye much easier.

I will check into the bias tape! The straight ribbon actually sits pretty well I just did haphazard job at pinning it so I could get the picture! XD I have waaay too much gold ribbon now.

Post by: kappa roll on February 27, 2013, 02:02:34 am
^ i second the bias tape notion.

bias tape is great, because it creates a clean, professional finish. and if you get double fold bias tape, you won't need to make a seam edge finish on any of the places where you use the bias tape.

Post by: Washougal_Otaku on February 27, 2013, 06:15:47 pm
@bunny_jean - If bias tape is what I think it is, I third this idea!

On the site it says if your a 1/2 size to go up to the next size

That's good to have, as well.

Um, favor...  Could it be possible for me to give you the cash, and you use PayPal to purchase it for me?  I don't trust PayPal, not with the crap they've done to me in the past, so I prefer working with someone who's had a good relation with them...
Title: Re: 2013 Cosplay Progress Thread
Post by: bunny_jean on February 27, 2013, 10:06:52 pm
Yes, and if you can't find actual gold bias tape, you can get gold fabric and cut on the bias (45 degree angle to selvage) some strips, then iron it into double fold bias tape. There are even machines that will do it for you, but they're not cheap.

Hey everyone. Thought I'd finally hit this thread up.


My progresses are:
Kirito - I have the costume itself finished (need to make new armor though), and have the sword almost done. For the sword, I forgot that he had these partial dome things on either side of the blade bases....Made those today and glued them. Gotta re gesso the area now lol
Costume - http://sailor-jeimi.deviantart.com/art/Kirito-finished-354993339
Sword before I put the domes on (I don't have a newer pic yet) - http://sailor-jeimi.deviantart.com/art/Kirito-Sword-WIP-354494335


Cloud - I decided to make an original PSX FFVII Game version of him. I'm on the 3rd cloud cosplay now..Yea..Awesome..lol I unwrapped my buster sword (it was wrapped in bandage for the KH1 version) and have put my materia in the sword's slots. I have also made the harness and SOLDIER belt but they need sewing and the belt neds backing. I also made boot covers but I'm like only half way done with ONE of them lol Also, the materia in the sword's slots GLOW!! They are awesome.
Costume so far - http://sailor-jeimi.deviantart.com/art/Cloud-ness-356627489
Sword (really it's only to show the materia in it but still - http://sailor-jeimi.deviantart.com/art/Just-my-sword-356124323


Other then that, Pretty done except for the female costumes that I haven't had started yet (being commissioned later).

Well before I had to head to the ER for some serious medical issues, this was the progress I got done with Saria:
(https://www.kumoricon.org/forums/proxy.php?request=https%3A%2F%2Fsphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net%2Fhphotos-ash3%2Fr90%2F486823_4241947537479_1956780902_n.jpg&hash=157d52fdec96f2ccc5c4c6451e603d0eacdec889)


This was literally a living hell. It's made out of broadcloth, so it was really stiff. And my sewing machine, Bertha, kept screwing up with the bobbin. Anyways, I'm really happy with how this is turning out. I'm going to the Zelda Symphony Concert, and I'm entering the costume contest; so this has to be perfect.


Another side note: I didn't use a pattern with this. I just kind of outlined a shape with pins to make a dress kind of thing, blindly put in the zipper, and then by some effed up miracle was able to bulls#&t some shorts into the bottom half.

Current Progress Report:
Matryoshka! Gumi: 80%.
Requires general maintenance, including stitching up here and there, a new pair of bottoms, and possibly a new pair of boots + gloves eventually.

Gijinka! Tiger (Monster Rancher 4): 30%
(https://www.kumoricon.org/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi1164.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fq570%2FTyanimalgirl%2FKumoricon020_zps3fe4dc34.jpg&hash=4a5f4bf7d3ece81a36f66bad91c62094761c0ec1)
Jacket pretty much completed, after god knows how many fights with the sewing machine. Goes down to about the bottom of my ribcage. Not too bad considering it's my first ever attempt with a pattern. Due to my lack of experience and my machine being...well, it's usual self, the zipper is not perfect. But hey, it's on there!
The zipper is what I call "idiot proof", meaning I ended up accidentally getting the kind that does not open up at the bottom. So I just slip it over my head (I probably would have ended up doing so while rushing to get ready anyway -.-). The sleeves are snug, but not painfully tight, and the shoulders are a little on the loose side, but I have a feeling that it'll help in the sweltering summer heat. Now I just need to find a way to cover the awkward stitching on the collar.
I need to get the connector screws for the horns (apparently, they are only available through special order at both Lowes and Home Depot, darn!), a bit of wonderflex, and I need to find the gloves, pants, and boots.

Gosh, I feel so intimidated with all the wonderful cosplayers here!

Things (And personal fandoms) have changed over the past half year, so I'm updating with what I'm hoping is my final list for Kumoricon 2013:
Momiji Sohma in his summer uniform with giant lollipop is returning, for Cosplay Chess.
Hitsugaya will be returning in his captain's robes and in a new soccer uniform for the Probending Tournament.
I'm still planning on cosplaying Haruka from Sailor Moon in a fancy, lacy dress of hers, but depending on what materials I make this out of, I might not be able to comfortably wear it for this convention.
This one's new... Afrika Korps uniformed Prussia from Hetalia. I'm a Hetalian now. And His Awesomeness, Prussia is my favorite character, but most of his outfits have at least two layers, which would kill me at this convention, so lightweight cotton uniforms for the win!

I've also managed to snag a pair of white boots from my sister. She never wears them, and they'll work great! Now just to get to work on the other parts!

 My current wip are the tails for my shiny ninetales gijinka. My wrists are killing me and the reoccuring thought is "The things I do for cosplay."(https://www.kumoricon.org/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi245.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fgg75%2FSakuranyu%2FDSCN0056_zps888d9694.jpg&hash=4560b6a0e033f1942b0b1be872424b104b69ef1e) 400 out of 2640 white fluffs completed.

Black~Rose, You make an AMAZING Sailor Venus!!


On to me. I decided that I may not be able to pay for Jessie (Pokemon) in time for this con, so in her place I decided on a Touho/Hilda (Pokemon B&W female trainer) cosplay. Here is my progress so far.

So, you can tell this isn't accurate lol I mean yes I have a white shirt and the vest, But I will be making a new vest, buyint a TANK TOP rather then the while shirt I have, and getting the correct shorts (I have a skirt here instead because I don't have shorts). I am also making the arm things and the bag.

I started working on my new gauntlet and claw for Albel today. I got it patterned out and shaped from the worbla.

I still need to add more more raised details on the arm parts. Also tomorrow I am going to remake the claws so they are more cured like the white one in the picture below.

On a side note. If anyone is interested in making armor I strongly recommend using worbla. This is my first time using it and I am so in love. It is so very easy to shape, easy to cut, its strong yet very light weight.


Tomorrow I am also going to work on the armor for Kuja's shoes. I don't have too much time left till Fanime x.x

I think you should go with the smaller one. It still looks just as accurate and recognizable, and you don't have to suffer so much :P

Also, I know this isn't what Kyoko wears exactly lol I have nothing for her cosplay other then the wig, bow, soul gem and grief seed.

I am currently working on Albel Nox. I got all the armor done and I am getting rid of the texture right now. Soon I need to start on the sewing part. Though despite the fact that I am not that great at sewing I did sew new pants for Judal this weekend. Actually within a few hours. I am very proud of myself.
Here are my pants. Sorry my mirror is so dirty. I just wish I made the crotch much much lower but oh well.

Encountered a set back with my tails... I do not believe I'll get all the fluffs brushed out in time due to my wrist acting up. I have 3 completed, and 6 more to make. Even with an extra pair of hands, I'm doubtful the yarn tails will work, also because of how heavy they will be. But! I found an alternative that just might work. I'm drawing out a pattern and going to get some material tomorrow. Although if this doesn't work, then I may have to scrap being a shiny ninetales and just be... a white fox. Let's hope it doens't come to that. -crosses fingers-

With me being a crazy, picky person when it comes to wigs had the wonderful idea to make a double think wig for my favorite character.. So far, I've taken all of the wefts from one wig out (All 64 of them) and I'm now starting to sew them into my base wig. I have a few rows done already, but it's taking so bloody long that I'll likely be working on it until con rolls around. Here's a few pictures showing the steps I've taken so far!

This is my progress as of this moment. I'm probably gonna make the round areas on the top and bottom of the handle BIGGER because they are still too small, but I'm out of boxes lol I also need to get the PVC pipe I'm using for the shaft. I kinda wanna go get some PVC connecters and put that over the round parts I have lol but they aren't needed.


EDIT2:
http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k188/RazorXCore_2006/IMAG0180_zps3a29ef7d.jpg
Still gonna do the whole "making it bigger on the handle" thing like I mentioned in the first edit, but I thought I'd tape it down to see sizing in my hand. Gotta say, I'm extremely happy with it.

For scale. I couldn't find a ruler where I was (Nor could I find a banana) and wanted to give some sort of size reference.

I have the hair for Sasha but I am getting things together for Mikasa. I have an Eren too. I am so excited for this costume! I found out that it came in but I am sadly out of town for a bit longer. On other news I have started on my gear today. I got the cylinder on the back pretty much done. I need some sort of rod type thing to attach the fan. I would like like it to spin. I just need to add the pieces that hold the rope in then it is ready to be primed and painted. I need to get some wood so I can start on a few more pieces. I also need to get some plastic so I can work on the scabbard.

You're welcome!


So, I haven't done an update recently, mainly because I've had nothing to report.  Recently, I've applied for a loan through Wells Fargo.  Provided that I get it, I will be able to pay for (at least) one more cosplay, and a hopeful upgrade to my Pinkie Pie and Sailor Neptune cosplays (like having the "suit" being a full-body rather than an over-glorified shirt).  Oh, and contacts; I will definitely need new contacts.  If I can't get it, then chances are that I'll just do what I already have, doing whatever changes I can (if at all) before con.

I was thinking about using puff paint/fabric paint.

Im debating whether or not I should get ears and a tail to add to it.
I know that if I cant find the right shorts to go with it, I am going to wear my capris instead.
But, if I can find the shorts, I need either yellow or light blue tights to go under it.

I recently purchased some tights that are available for adults in colors online from amazon.com (I can find their name for you if you want). The only issue I've run into is the elastic at the top is extremely tight and will take a lot of effort to stretch it out properly. I'm plotting to somehow cut it and add elastic to it so it isn't as tight, but the tights themselves aren't uncomfortable at all.

I got my tail at Wigland.  It was in the back of the store, right side.  The package shows them as long braids, but they are easy to undo.  I would highly recommend that as an option.

@ Tala : You might have to keep looking. Amazon does list XL and LXL as available, but not in stock. "Capezia Women's Ultra Soft Transition Tight". Due to the issues with the elastic, you might want to look for something else sadly >:

Idea one : The striped shirt, blue capris, yellow flats.
Idea two : Pink shirt with puff paint balloons, blue capris, yellow or pink flats.
Idea three : yellow tank top, pink button down shirt, blue capris, pink flats.
Idea four : yellow tank top, pink button down shirt, pink capris, blue flats
Idea five : pink tank top over yellow tank top, mixed pink tutu, blue tights, pink or yellow flats

I cant decide ;-;

Made a good bit of progress on my Teutonic Knights costume. I now have the cloak pieces cut out (Except for the crosses) and just need to get more white fabric for pants before I start sewing everything. The tunic is modeled off of a couple of shirts of mine and will have a cross on the front of it and French seams on the inside to make it more comfortable.

Here is my Lux wig (http://www.cosplay.com/photo/3397097/) and a few practice poses, I'm waiting until I have more money before ordering the worbla to begin her armor.


Zelda is almost done (http://www.cosplay.com/photo/3397098/), again waiting to order another wig until I have more cash flow. I should however be getting the materials for her gold belt very soon. (:


Asuna is done. Lyfa is almost done (http://i362.photobucket.com/albums/oo67/ribbonaquadrops/lyfa.jpg?t=1371273374). Just a few small details and props left. For her I'm working on being as "anime" as possible. I.E. working hard to be disproportionate/large chested & small waisted. So I'm wearing a tight corset and a few push up bras with this outfit.

As for Azusa the only thing I have so far is her wig.

Paint can look messy I find :/ You could use a thinner and make a template with regular paper or something and that should help. I saw something on OPB where a lady painted in shapes and then stitched in details and outlines for visual interest.

I finished the headphones up today. I still need to paint the gray between the 2 gray stripes, but I kind of like it being purple.

That looks so cool! I love it, I cant wait to see you wearing them. Ima have to get a pic of you for sure for my album. I love the purple!
My pseudo mom was thinking about making an applique and ironing them on. She has some transfer webbing stuff that you iron on, and then iron it onto whatever you want. So Ima try doing that, since I have some left over fabric anyways.
I was thinking about painting them on with puff paint, to make them look like real balloons, and then stitching around them to make them more visible. I have three shirts, so Ima experiment and see what works.
Also, I went out and got some pink make up, so Ima start trying make up ideas out and see what works. Then my pseudo mom painted my nails pink today to see if I like the pink. We ordered some yellow and sky blue nail polish (we use this special gel shellac stuff), and we're going to try that next time to see which I like better. I normally really hate the color pink, but Im totally loving all this pink for Pinkie Pie lol I don't know why though!

I had to mix my own purple for them~! ^^ It turned out really good. I'm so happy hehe I'm not looking forward to doing Neku's wig. I'm worried that wig pictured with the headphones, might be too short :/ It's kinda dark too. But it's the closest I have for right now.

I normally hate pink myself lol It's so stereotyped to girls, and it's usually hot pink that's such a garish color :/
You could also try some 3D paint- I think it's similar to puff paint. I think I saw someone once had painted the balloons and did the edges of them and the threads and ribbons around them in the puff/3D paint for Pinkie Pie.

I think that wig looks perfect, but once you put it on your head (not the wig stand) and it gets all situated, will it look shorter or longer? (new to wig wearing lol)
I think the purple is a perfect shade, you did real good!

Can you patch the shirt if you put on the balloons to cover the patch-job? For her nails, I think that pink with a light blue would look nice :)

Mmmm the wig kind of depends on how I put it on lol My Roxas wig looks fine if I don't wear it too far forward and blind myself. Thankfully, my head is the same size as the wig heads I use just about, and only my hair makes it bunch in strange manners.
I wore the wig when I first got it a while ago, but if I pull it forward the bangs shouldn't look as thin after styling.

I ripped it on the arm lol so the patch job wont be seen once Im done with it. Ima experiment with it a bit, and see what I can do.
I think the wig will be good then. It looks good on the wig head, so Im sure it will look the same on you. Im jealous lol my head is like three inches bigger than the wig head I have, so I have to pin things to it to keep the wig on. Also, did you buy a wig cap, or make your own? Or do you wear one at all? Im debating getting one.

Every wig cap I've had is brand-new tight and I can't be bothered trying to stretch it out. I just tie my hair in a loose pony tail at the base of my head and pull it up and pin it with 2"-3" long bobby pins. I use like 14-20 on average, depending on how flat I want my hair. I kinda curl it like a crown around my head, instead of in one mash. It works pretty well for me, considering my hair is to my hips by the time con rolls around. When I had short hair, to my shoulders, I just didn't put it in a pony-tail and just freely bobby pinned it. I dunno why, but usually my wigs sit very well on my head without the need for adjustment.

You might be better off using a piece of nylon tights as a wig cap, then a real wig cap... Some are worse then others in my experience. I've had thin nylon types that tear easily, and I have a thicker material that's netted that work decently. Really I've had the 'best hold ALL day' with just bobby pin insanity.

Thank you ^-^ I'm supposed to be getting my wig today, so hopefully it'll get here and ill be able to try those out. I have an overwhelming amount of bobby pins, so ill try that first. Luckily, my hair is shoulder length right now, and I'm cutting it before con so it'll be easier to put up under the wig.
Ill try my hand at making a wig cap today. I've got several pairs of nylon knee highs that don't fit me so maybe i can stretch them enough to fit over my head lol If not, ill just run to walmart and get some.

SOOOO...I have three cosplays for the upcoming Kumori :3 Definitely not in order xD I have no idea what I'm doing which day.


Suoh Tamaki from Ouran Highschool Host Club
Hatsune Miku from.................Vocaloid......But the music video is secret black vow.
Haine Rammsteiner from Dogs: Bullets and Carnage


For Tamaki: 0%


His is basically the easiest, so...xD Still need cosplay/shoes, wig, contacts


For Hatsune Miku: 90%


I have the dress and shoes along with a fancy fan, wig is being worked on, and I'll be using the same contacts that I'll use for Tamaki. PRETTY DARN CLOSE TO FINISHED.


For Haine Rammsteiner: 90%


I have the cosplay (just need to fix up a little part of it), have the wig. I just need red contacts (fun 8D) and the guns. Since my Miku cosplay is GINORMOUS (not even kidding. I can hardly walk without help. I am going to die in the heat good lawd) I took a picture of my Haine :3 Please excuse the horrrrrriiiiiddd quality:

I finally finished Neku up, save for his wig. I got the wristband made and a lanyard made for his MP3 player. Eventually I'd like to buy a white lanyard but that seems hard to find >:

I just bought fabric yesterday to start work on a cosplay challenge I'm trying: make a cosplay in under $40. I'm kind of cheating though cause I'm probably not going to make the boots, and I already have a wig. If I have enough time/money later, I will try to make the boots though. :)

From world beat this weekend I'm the Ashley Ketchum, I did finish ash except for the gloves however As a trial run I did find some things that didn't work.

1} Button needs a snap behind it instead of a safety pin for easier removing
2} While the bigger pokeballs look more accurate they fall off: Try to use smaller balls or find an alternative way to hold them to the belt
3} Making fingerless gloves is a pain and should not be attempted until further notice. Buy some gloves and redo them.
4} Shorts work and look way better then capris
5} Shoes need some extra support if walking for hours on end.
6} Looks good with or without wig

So I've clearly got some stuff to work on before con. ^^

So my husband figured out an awesome and cheap way to stay cool in his beast costume, so thank goodness, we're doing it for sure! To prove it, we're posting a picture of his newly finished 'stilts' (they're kinda bulky though! teehee). His costume was majorly beat up by the end of con, so we are re-working a lot of it to make him taller, leaner, and scarier, with the touch of friendly beast we all know and love. <3

Oh no, we've already thought about that. If he isn't allowed in with those it'll be disappointing, but we'll work around the schedule and stuff. His head was already problematic enough last year and it won't be any easier this year, so we're going to go all out even if he has to wear it only for short periods of time. : )

Stilts are usually allowed so long as you have someone to watch where you're going and are careful. It's the head that you would probably have to take off due to security inside the buildings.

That looks really good, zeal! ^^

I just bought some more fabric. I had the wrong kind for the skirt. So I had to get some different fabric. Right now was good, cause all the fabrics I need were on sale 50-60% (twill & interlock knit). I also got some more thread that I needed and some red for the pouch- though I'm still not entirely sure I'll use the red.

Tomorrow I'm going to make a test buckle for the straps to make sure the material is correct and behaves how I want.

I got the buttons gesso'd and painted and some more straps done for the jacket. But everything is coming along great~ ^^

I didn't see stilts mentioned in the con  rules specifically, but it does say that the hotel gets final say on what's allowed.
I bet you could email then or maybe the hotel liaison with pictures and ask ahead of time, that way you can plan better.  The hotel is pretty accommodating.
just thinking about it I would recommend wording it like platform shoes vs stilts, as the look more sturdy then stilts.

Woo! Ordered my wig and tie for Rainbow Dash and a blue hat for John! I feel great making actual progress =w=


I will be going to various stores today (mainly Walmart and Goodwill *cough*)for everything else. All I need to do is buy a lab coat for Rainbow (my dad said they had em at a local uniform store so I'm gonna compare prices with that and online), foam for her wings, and felt for her ears. For John, I still need to buy shirts to cut and sew for his jacket and a Styrofoam ball for a Pokeball ^^

Ordered my paint and wig for Amethyst, still have to find a red wig I like for skyla then sew the straps up and fiddle with the clothing (dye job is really not good oops) then I make the gem for amethyst's chest and they should both be pretty much done. (o^o'")

About 90% done with my jacket for John! I just need to add the other sleeve and paint the yellow on. I also started painting the first coat of paint for his Pokeball. I just need to let it dry, paint a second coat, glue the ball halves together, and add the final paint detail!


Not much was done for Rainbow Dash today, except her prop. I decided to buy a small glass bottle and fill it with rainbow colored sand (it's supposed to be a rainbow sample). I colored the sand with food coloring except for the red, which was hard since i ran out of red food coloring. So I mixed acrylic paint with water for a dye, but that just made it look pink. Oh well. It's now a pink, yellow-orange, green, blue, purple sample xD

I don't have much to update with other than I've been messing around with the shrink film for maths and shrinkage. I still have to make 2 more buckle things cause of course, I made the ones I thought I made right, too small. *cries*

I was confident though to make the necklace charm as large as I wanted. It turned out on the smaller side of what I was hoping for in terms of width, but it's fine like it is ^^

My ninetales cosplay is almost complete. I just need to attach the decoritive string to the sleeves and make a fur stole to hide the straps of my tails. The tails need to be recolored and renforced once again but this time I have stronger thread and a better needle to work with. The only thing about her cosplay is the darn top.

I thought I had grabbed a novice pattern but it's actually intermediate and the instructions make no sense x-x Anyone worked with a burda 7083 pattern before?
 
On the other hand, I'm starting to work on senbonzakura luka and sandplay luka again. Senbon I just need to fox the shoes and attach another snap to apron, and sandplay luka I must fix what I started, sew the sleeves, remake the headdress chain and break in shoes. Also figure how to stlye the wig which I have an idea on already.

I've never worked with the pattern itself, but i looked it up and its kinda like a wrapped tunic dress right? The dresses on the front are greenish?
I suggest (if the pattern didn't cost too much) to go get a different pattern, one for a robe or a wrapped kimono style shirt and then just add length if you want it to be like a dress. If not, then just shorten and take in some of the areas with the robe pattern and you have yourself a wrapped style shirt. You may even want to take a trip to your library and see if they have any kimono sewing books. I have one that my grandma uses to make me my kimonos and its great, with easy to read instructions. You may even want to just get a size larger than you wear shirt in the right color, and alter it to make a shirt like how you want. I'm not really a seamstress, but it seems like you may want the easiest possible pattern to go by, and in my opinion, a kimono pattern without the length or the sleeves would be perfect.
If none of this made any sense, just disregard it lol
Title: Re: 2013 Cosplay Progress Thread
Post by: veraca on July 07, 2013, 11:15:05 pm
I don't know if your mind works like this.. But you could get a large t-shirt and cut it to open the way you'll want the kimono top to open and then baste up the sides for where you'll want your seams to be, or where it'll go over itself.  Then just trace that onto paper (make 4 pieces, 2 front and 2 back) and then add seam allowances and sew up the seams.
Actually when I made the jacket  for the costume I'm working on, I used a tanktop that fits me without needing to stretch and traced it onto paper I had taped together. Then I just kept adjusting it's lines until they looked and measured right. The arm holes were the hardest, but I did get it to work finally.

My swords are in the process of the handles being painted. I got the criss-cross pattern carved into one and paint on it. Tomorrow I will do the other. I should also have the bike levelers tomorrow so I can add those. This weekend I will put fiberglass down on the blades to give them strength and then one of the three parts of the 3D MG will be done! I will also work on getting the blades a little straighter x.x

I said it on FB, but your stuff is looking good, Nikki. Really excited to see you at con!

As for my progress, I am just waiting on things to get here. I ordered Baku's leather cap and goggles. Once they get here I will paint the goggle rims silver and begin the process of making some tapir/donkey-esque ears for to attach to the hat.

I still have essentially the entire costume ahead of me, but you have to start somewhere.

Oh, and I also am planning to make his sword out of expanding foam, craft foam and PVC pipe. Probably won't get to that until next week. After last year's trial run with expanding foam on Ward's harpoon, I feel this sword should probably be a slightly smoother project. I feel good about it.

First update of the year :3 I'm starting stuff earlier this year so I can get everything done.

Spy: Dress has been ordered and will be here at the end of the month. I got the mask and supplies I need to modify it. Make up is already owned. Once I get the dress, all I'll need is the cigarette holder and to figure out shoes (I'm a size 11, 5'11" who doesn't wear heels much- if anyone has suggestions, lemme know >.<). The dress might have a non-detachable sparkly thing, so I might need to make a black waist wrap.

GlaDOS: Still looking for a black turtle neck. Once I get that, I'll get the supplies to modify my boots to make them thigh high Sailor Scout esc boots. Then I just need to finish the boots, add the Aperture symbol to the white shirt, and get some old cables for the back of the outfit.

Espeon: Espeon needs the most work. I've got the raw materials for the corset, but I need to sit down and make the thing, which will take about 12 hours of work, if not more. The wig is ordered and I have the materials for the accessories, but I'm short for the ears, face fluff, and tail. I found pants I can order, but I'm not sold on using cords (I wanted denim). I also have no idea for shoes, though I've gotten the make up figured out.

All in all, just a couple weeks of work left, then I can start on next years costumes. Just gotta get off my butt and do them xD

Asuna (ALO): Done (http://www.cosplay.com/costume/454244/)! :D I might be making "bare-feet" shoes for her though.


Lyfa (ALO): This is for my friend however I'll be wearing it first! Here's what it looks like on me so far (http://www.cosplay.com/photo/3410124/). All that's left on that is the wings, the hair clips, the sword and a few small details on the jacket. However I will be making another Top, Corset and Belt so that my friend can wear it.


Sakura: AWESOME! xD This was a last minute decision that I made a week ago! I'm making Sakura for the cosplay contest with my friend WinryRockbell127 (I think that's the numbers xD) as Syaroan. It looks so awesome, but I'm gonna wait to share it. Just a little beading left for this one.

Does anyone have experience coloring brown/black hair without bleaching it first? I need to color my beard pink, but don't want to actually bleach n' dye it so much as temporarily paint it.

To be honest, you can get leather belts at Goodwill you could probably repurpose. Probably cheaper than buying actual leather, idk though.


As for the beard, you could find pink hair chalk? It's temporary, washes right out, and should cover dark hair.

Its not ideal, and any spray hair color company will tell you not to do it, but you should try the pink hair color spray that people use on Halloween. Just make sure you cover your mouth and nose before doing it. Or spray it into a bowl until you get a good puddle of it and then paint it on and comb it through a few times. That has worked for me when using it on my brother.

What are they made of? I have to stretch all of my shoes cuz I've got wide feet, and i may be able to help. I prefer the newspaper method for stretching heels though. Wet some newspaper and ball them up, stuff them into the parts you want stretched until the look like they're over filling. the newspaper will dry and expand and slowly stretch the shoes. Its worked for me.

I have 2 wigs for Sailor Cosmos in the mail, and a wig and hat for Resistance Caitlyn.


I got almost all the fabric I need for Cosmos, Caitlyn and Cure Blossom at a garage sale with a basement FULL of fabric. It was crazy. Now I'm just trying to wash all the basement smell out of it.

I'm going to do that tonight and start on the skirt and collar! I'm hoping to have her pretty much all done except for the boots by the end of the weekend.

I am no longer flipping out as I have removed Lux from my costume list! So much more calm now. xD


But now I have a question!
So I'm accessory shopping for my Cadence right now.  Here's what I already have (http://i362.photobucket.com/albums/oo67/ribbonaquadrops/CadenceACcessories.jpg?t=1374869921): her ring, necklace, and hair clip. And have decided on which crown I want to get (the left). However I don't know how I want to do my wings..
I already have ears and will get a horn from YayaHan but should I make my wings like she does or one of these ways? [1 (http://theharley.deviantart.com/art/Cosplay-Wings-WIP3-206263779)] [2 (http://spplushies.deviantart.com/art/Side-Project-Wing-95734103)] [3 (http://dust-bunny.deviantart.com/art/Wing-Tutorial-199229716)]

I think you should do wings like these : http://www.deviantart.com/art/MlP-FiM-Princess-Celestia-Cosplay-318994798 (http://www.deviantart.com/art/MlP-FiM-Princess-Celestia-Cosplay-318994798) (I know it isn't Candance, but I couldn't find any pics of her with wings like this) To me, it looks more princess-ish and sticks to the MLP style that they have in the show.

Chibimano is still in the same state I left it in from last K-con, may be finished by late august, may not  :P Hopefully it will be.
For my friend's Japan I just need to finish the waist band of her pants, hopefully tonight so I can give them to her tomorrow. Also need to finish up her Rukia skirt. That will also be finished tonight or tomorrow at the latest.
For another friend's Sexy!Fem!Snape cloak I need to get her measurements as well as the fabric for the project. This may have to be finished late august which makes me really nervous about getting it done on time.
Lastly,the Crocanaw I'm making for a completely different friend is approx. 50% finished, which makes me really happy.

I know how you feel. Sharpies, pens and bookmark tab thingies- they all magically disappear in my house.

I haven't gotten much done besides the pauldron having epic issues. First my cat chewed the small square piece to pieces and ribbons, and then chewed off the piping from the edge. And now the 'repair' fix piping I put on somehow shrank too small and broke off. So I have to do a third repair to that. It's getting to the point where I'll have to super glue it on.

I can't wait to go dancing at the park at con! Recently wore full cosplay [minus wig and ears] while dancing with fans and I couldn't stop watching myself in refelective surfaces. The colors of the fans just popped beautifully [in my opinion] and the swirly skirt was fun to twirl in. Found I needed to add a waist tie to it for it liked to fall to my hips, and my top would slowly but surely open to expose my under tank, but ties have been added to that too. Found out I cannot wear my detached sleeves with playing with fans or I'll hit myself  in the face over and over again XD
Had to fix a pair of ears I got from ebay. There was only one hair clip holding them to my head and they were rather loose. Snipped those out and sewn in two clips so the ears would hold their shape at the base and stay on better.

So it won't be this Kumori since I don't have the funds for the wig, but I had this kool idea after talking with someone selling cosplays.
On coscom there is this person I talk to that is selling a Yoko Littner Bounty Hunter cosplay..However, no coat though or shorts..But she is also selling a White Rock Shooter cosplay..Hmm..Both have white, black and red in their outfits. So I thought, Since I can't afford to get both AND finish them as each character..Why not mix them..Here's my drawing of the result:

I'll totally have it in time for Kumori next year, But for sure for Akicon (without the scythe for that though, because I'll be in the AA for Aki) And for sure Sakuracon with the scythe..


Azura, if you see this, don't you dare say it (about the scythe thing, you know exactly what I'm talking about) >.<


PS:
I know the drawing isn't accurate. It's close enough to get my point across, I did that in like, 5 minutes..

Baku progress:

- I got my pig nose, just need to paint it with a bit more realistic paint job.
- I am currently foam-coating the hilt of his sword, carved out of styrofoam.

Slow-going, overall, but it's looking good. This foamcoat just takes foreeeever to dry. For something that requires multiple coats, it's going to be a while.

The part that goes around my waist has been painted since this picture. I need to paint the inside and the bottom and it is done.

This weekend I will also work on making the front piece of the scabbards then I can attach that and use the cord to attach everything and I am done! I also need to get some strong velcro to help keep it on me XD

Yeah...making a moogle mascot, along with finding the parts for its human form is quite the female dog...I might have to ask for help from an expert seamstress and architect (aka Mom and Dad -- who are actually a seamstress and architect) to save me from going all Trance Kuja on it.  Right now, the wings are kinda the bane of my existence.  I'm not the most "symmetry capable" guy and I didn't exactly inherit my parents' skills in their respective crafts, so I might just have to live with a little lopsidedness for this year.

At first, I was mystified on how to make it look fluffy and bulky without having to pack on an extra 50 lbs or so (don't poke fun, I'm not the brightest bulb and this is my first time actually making a cosplay).  But then I realized that I'm pretty much making a hollowed out stuffed animal, but keeping the plush.  And I'm trying to retain as much mobility & vision as possible, since I'm gonna try my hardest to get this into the Cosplay Chess game.  Also taking cooling & hydration precautions into account, so I'll be donning a few cooling bands (maybe a vest too, depending on temperature forecasts) and wearing a light hydration pack, maybe installing a fan if I feel like stabbing my face with a soldering iron out of frustration.

As for the human form, it's just a white hoodie vest, white cargo shorts, white and pink Fivefinger shoes, white fingerless gloves, moogle ears with a red pompom attached to a spring, and a muffler fashioned out to look like its wings.  Basically what a moogle might look like if it wished to be a human for a day.  A short spear is also being made, along with a pair of steampunk goggles to add a bit more character.

It's hell, but I'm actually still having fun making it and really can't wait to have fun moogle prancing throughout the con!  Kupo!~  <(^o^)>

Been cutting down the expanding foam for Baku's sword. I have a question. To those who have used expanding foam before, what do you do about the deflation? Every time I use expanding foam, it deflates somewhat. Cutting it into a shape is a little problematic, because it just keeps gradually shrinking. 'Sup with that?

How did you make your ears? I've made ears before but when i went to make them yesterday, i completely blanked and couldn't figure it out at all.


I made them really simple, honestly. I had leftover blue fabric from making my wings, so i just drew out the ear-shape as how i draw them, stitched and cut, and stuffed them lightly (they look a little like devil hons if i keep them at the wrong angle Cx )

So the stuff involving fabric, I haven't done anything with... But I did gesso the pauldron and then got the base coat of silver on today. Most of stuff that's metal painted is finished being painted. I just turned the pauldron over to inspect the inside for cracks and had to repair a huge crack with glue, so we'll see how that holds up. I might need to add more after the first bit dries.

I love it! Digimon cosplayers!~ <3

My day was a bit of drama lol
All that issue with my thread being a *** to me, I accidently slipped and changed the stitch length and now it works? Seriously? After I fought with it during the entire jacket, skirt, cape, pockets and most of the pouch? NOW it works?!
Finished the 2 bands for the red pouch, giving them slack so I can safety pin them tighter when wearing it. I couldn't find the dark brown twill the skirt's made out of- so I made due and used the knit to make the belt holders- and lo'and behold! The twill was out in the kitchen... Of course *rolls eyes*
I also made and sewed on the little brown clippy things to the jacket, and cut out the gloves.
Also, Neku's lanyard came in the mail today!~ <3
Next on the list: shirt, boot covers, pauldron, and belt. And some fine details^^

Got pics of some of the swag that the human-form moogle will be using!  More to come once more materials/pieces are delivered! (I work full-time, swing-shift, so I really have to rely on UPS/USPS for a grand majority of what I need since most places are closed by the time I get off work... :'( )

I was able to fashion a spear for moogle usage, using a dismantled broom shaft and a blunted spearhead I was able to convince my former theatre prop manager to part with.  The broom shaft is much sturdier than anything the spearhead (which is surprisingly high-quality steel) used to be attached to -- what I did was drill a screw all the way through one side of the bottom of the spearhead, through the shaft, then out the other side.  After ensuring that the spearhead will hold tight without any possibility of budging, I filed down the part of the screw that was sticking out for aesthetic (and safety) purposes.

And yes, that is a cat's spring toy I am using for the pom-pom on the moogle ears headpiece...

The top part of the bottom skirt has been pinned and sewn so it is no longer dragging on the ground, endangering the lives of those around me.*
I ordered a corset yesterday and it will hopefully arrive before we leave on the 30th. I will probably be sewing the appliques at the hotel weither or not if I have time at home. Mostly because not doing some sort of crafty thing on day 0 hotel chill time just seems.... bizzare.
Gloves need to be sewn back together and I gotta locate the headress and buttbow @n@; I also found some shoes that give me some height but they are the tallest heels I've ever worn [y'all have been warned XD ]

I'm conflicted though.. should i do two cutiemarks, or just one in the corner of the skirt?

That pauldron looks awesome, Veraca. I look forward to seeing the full outfit.

As for me, I made ears (https://fbcdn-sphotos-b-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/556351_938948458021_697401662_n.jpg). That's what I did today.

Hopefully, tomorrow I can figure out how to attach them to Baku's hat and then finish his sword.

I'm actually in the same boat of "how to attach?" I'm leaning toward using some bias tape and velcro as probably the best option for it to stay on well and still be adjustable~ :D

Oh, the hat is a leather pilot cap. I actually figured it out and just got the hat/ear combo finished. Thanks for offering help though! What I did was cut a slit and push the ears through with some fabric folded inside, which I then hot glued to the inside of the hat like a hook. So, they're anchored in there quite well.

No I think everyone does that I spent all day looking for white suspenders and a vary specific tie, I walked into an antiqes shop asking if they had either and the girl responded "You from the con?" she said people had been in there all day looking for obscure items.

Yatta! Last night I finished the last part of my new costume for Kumoricon (which I started, by the way, on Saturday, 24 August). I created the costume for Gintama's Sarutobi Ayame (http://gintama.wikia.com/wiki/Sarutobi_Ayame ) to wear all day on Sunday of Kumoricon. I wanted to have a comfortable outfit to wear all day for costume judging and the Cosplay Contest - and of course it has to be something new. Thankfully, I already had most of the fabric I needed sitting in my stash, so all I had to do was cut and sew everything.

I did a makeup and wig-styling test run for Rainbow Dash today. And FINALLY FOUND A WAY TO STYLE THE WIG WITHOUT IT LOOKING DOPEY. I tried to sew on the ears to the wig, but I quickly gave up, so with that plan scrapped, Rainbow Dash is finished. Well its con-ready. I have another idea I may or may not do of splattering colors and fake blood onto my lab coat.


I am LITERALLY 99% CLOSE TO GETTING JOHN DONE ALTOGETHER. I still need to glue a small part to the jacket, and then I need to find my Pokeball, which is somewhere, and lightly glue it shut.

I changed the title for the consideration of not taking the space and time of making a new thread.
Especially if it would only get lost or not used.
There's no need to make a new thread, many times in the past have people merely updated threads. I was only doing the same. I'm sure others can tell that this was used for the previous year. I've updated the first post as well, just in case. I apologize, I was only trying to make things easy.


Now then, I've been planning a Jack Frost cosplay for the last year and a half, but I've only finally gotten around to finishing my hoodie. I need to buy the pants soon and finish my staff. That'll be on my to do for next month. I want to have it done by at least the beginning of December.

I have all the fabrics for Elsa, but I need to crank out the sewing machine when I have the time, I tried to get some patterns that would suit any needs for the dress. But I'm most likely going to go fabric shopping again to see if there are any other ones that may suit better.

Started on Nuregami. Need to get glossy varnish for the orb. Finished the giant kimono part, which I can't even hang up, since it's apparently so heavy it broke the friggin' hanger. Somewhat finished the obi and accessories, which will be a pain to get on with the face and shoulder paint applied, so I might need to redo or edit it. Made fun little anklets with bells. Finished making the beaded necklace with a bunch of foam balls, clay, and painting them....3 times to get the right color. *twitch*

Finally decided to finish Fate Testarossa for this con. The weapon I never took apart and used for other things like I normally do, so I still have it, the head was never attached so..I just last nbight finished up putting all the parts of the head together, as well as glued all the parts of the handle in place. Shouldn't be too long now. Still need a leotard, then finish the shoes and get a new wig and I'll be done.


For Alice, I made the hat pretty much..I will be using money left over asfter Sakuracon to buy the material for the dress, and buying stockings. I might just paint my pink shoes red because they match hers. Then a wig.


Also need to buy the material for Sabrina. That'll be a hoot..AS well as basically everything else..

I'm looking through materials and stuff I have. Hopefully I can get the time to fix up Yuna's songstress shirt and the obi of summoner. No real work on gunner-Yuna yet, aside from planning what to buy.
I did get to work finally on Yuna's staff. I have the top part of it all cut out and glued together; just waiting for the gesso to dry before I can start sanding it down and then gesso it some more. I really want to make sure it's 100% covered in gesso before I spray paint it, since I've heard that the paint chemicals can eat styrofoam.

InstaMorph is now my best prop making friend. I tried making the okami symbol on the forehead with it and some hot glue and fabric, and I was not dissapointed. The instamorph itself has got a bit of a rough surface, but it's practically indestructible once it's cooled. I literally took a rough version of it, bent it backwards, beat it against the desk multiple times, and not a scratch! It just bends back to it's original shape, if it's thin enough to bend. It's a little hard to mold, but it's light and flexible if thin enough. Definitely recommend for prop details and other small things! <3
Anyway, got my Nuregami wig, and my new Gumi wig (poor old one is falling apart). Remade the under-kimono to be more comfy and cool, made the tabi, geta, and anklets.

I've ordered my binders that act like shirts, and once those are in, just gotta use irons, buy some accessories, and get some new pants then I'll be done!
I feel lucky to have the hair that I do, I don't need any wigs for my chosen cosplays. Just hair products.

Yumichika's nearly done, I just have to get socks and fix the pants and weird orange thing. Squalo will be done once I get patches and a sword. For Bossun I just need to get the wristbands and pins, finish styling my wig, paint my slingshot, and make the weird anklets. As for Jolteon.... Well I have half a skirt. I need to cut out/sew on zigzag spikeys out of fabric for the ruffles and make the top. So. Many. Spikeys.

Tamaki Suoh - 100% finished, besides just a bit of styling.


Guro Lolita - 90% finished, just waiting on the wig, tights, and shoes. Need to style wig upon arrival. Contacts and makeup needed.


Clear (Dramatical Murder) - 75% Got umbrella, scarf, shirt, pants, belt. Wig on it's way, don't think I'll be getting the white shoes, so using black combats instead. Contacts needed. Gloves needed. Jacket on it's way. Need contacts.


Mahiru Koizumi - 90% Need socks and shoes. Maybe I'll have a camera? Need to style wig. Does anyone know a good tutorial for straight across bangs in a sort of...Choppy style? Similar to this (http://cdn.myanimelist.net/images/characters/11/185551.jpg).

(in order of who I have on my signature.)

Echo- 20%
~Need a short black wig, along with matching bun extension
~Find and alter a turtleneck shirt
~Find some bandages to wrap around arms
~Maybe get black duct tape to wrap around waist

The Master- 100%
I might get a red collar if I find one in time, but if not, I'll go with what I have.

Delphox- 98%
~Find a stick
~Maybe get black gloves

Lady Loki- 99%
~Fix the horns

Tony the Clock-100%
However, I might get contacts. I also feel like I should get another jacket that isn't a wool/wool-like blazer. I just feel like there should be more with it......

Equius-......%
I think I'm going to borrow most of the stuff from my friend, though I might get some things. I honestly don't know. XD
I do believe that she is going to do the horns and the rest is my ordeal, but who knows.
(It was her idea, and I agreed to it if she does most of it. I am not in the Homestuck fandom, so along with that I don't feel comfortable dealing with making the cosplay on my own out of fear that I'll mess it up.)

Will Graham-10%
-Get either a grey blazer or his field jacket (I'm most likely going to do his grey blazer because I honestly can't find any jackets that are like that, and I don't have the sewing skills to make it.)
-Find a red plaid shirt
-Get a brown belt
-Buy square black glasses
-Acquire blueish grey slacks
