Title: 2014 : Cosplay Progress Thread
Post by: TalaRedWolf33 on September 11, 2013, 06:49:34 pm
Here ya guys go ^-^ An all new thread for you guys.
If some-mod could please lock the other thread or something, people were concerned about it becoming confusing to meld the 2013 thread with the 2014 one.
Here, people can have an all new clean slate to post on.

Happy posting!

I bought my pattern for my Robin cosplay on Tuesday unfortunately I'm completely in the $0 area do to an unwanted dental bill because insurance only covered $30. So no real progress for a couple months. But here's my cosplay check list.

Sheeta - Laputa: Castle in the sky
Peter Pan
Sir Integra - Hellsing
Noriko Ukai - Gravitation

I'm working on Albel now. I got the gloves sewn and most of the armor ready to go. I will attached the armor to one glove this weekend and probably start on the shirt and skit.

On another note. I am also going to cosplay Korra. Once I get paid tomorrow I will order the costume. Then all I have to do is finish getting in shape! I got this! MORE BENCH PRESS AND PUSH UPS TO MAKE MY ARMS BIGGER!

Got my fabric swatches for Nightmare Moon.
Been researching what sort of things to use for my armor. I'm cosplay going to try my hand at Warbla. Never worked with it, never touched it, never even seen it lol But Ive got a year to go so hopefully Ill perfect it.
Sketching ideas for my Nightmare Staff

Been sketching ideas for my Pinkamina CupCakes apron, need to get some clay and felt for the horns and wings. Anyone have any ideas on how I should do her blade? I was thinking Twilights horn and then the blade... but i dunno.

Started seeing a thread on coscm for the new Pokemon X/Y, and I did a lot of looking around, and Serena is freaking adorable. I'm going to cosplay her. I may also bring it to Kumori next ear since it's not a "layers of clothing" cosplay meaning it will ne better to wear in the heat. And the hat should help keep my face from being directly hit from the sun, meaning less sweat ^_^


I'm thinking of buying this:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Sexy-Lady-Women-Short-Pleated-Woolen-High-Waist-Elastic-Mini-Slim-Skirt-/190841775388 (http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Sexy-Lady-Women-Short-Pleated-Woolen-High-Waist-Elastic-Mini-Slim-Skirt-/190841775388)
Or something like it if I can find something better (I don't wanna MAKE a pleated skirt haha)
Then, making the 2 side pieces she has on both sides (I think on both sides anyway, this series likes to e smetrical to make design easier) and making that a separate piece that has a higher waistband which will give the illussion of a high waist skirt all together.
Also, buy black chuck taylor style shoes (off brand stuff that doesnt have a big label on the side lol) and paint on the pokeball symbol.
However, I'm lost on the shirt..No idea what to do there..Nor do I know how to get that hat..

I just need to figure out how to get my Wiccan cosplay together. I'm really confused about how I'm gonna make everything from the neck up.
My Sailor Vulcan cosplay should be pretty simple. I hope.

Making my skirt pattern (sorta, it's just figuring out how much fabric I'll need, unless it'll cost more then an already made skirt). I also finished making my leggings. They don't go up as high as hers, but I would rather have a slightly longer skirt, meaning the leggings should be lower to see the tops.

And I also dyed my hair for Korra. I styled my hair quickly. I will get the hair accessories when the costume comes in. By the time I wear the costume my hair will be longer as well. AND I will be darker and have better makeup but I am excited and I think I can pull Korra off pretty well :3

Just make a new skirt for my Serena cosplay from the new Pokemon X/Y games.
http://www.cosplay.com/photo/3435500/ (http://www.cosplay.com/photo/3435500/)
This one is made with much better fabric and a closer color then the last one. Plus, this one pleated better haha
I still need to make the side panels that have the pockets and the waistband.

Post by: Sailor-Jeimi on November 02, 2013, 06:33:13 pm
Well isn't this just the lively of lively threads....Tripple posting huh..


Anyway, I got further with Fate, and gave up on Serena..


Here's my Fate costume page to make life easier:
http://www.cosplay.com/costume/463691/ (http://www.cosplay.com/costume/463691/)


I will be hopefully getting the stuff to make my scythe soon..I can almost never find pics of her holing it..But the Bardiche I have in those pics, rotate the head so the long part is sticking straight out, and add a scythe blade..Anyway, that will have lights so it'll look like energy for the blade. Also, I bought boots (arrived today) that I'm going to use as bases for her armored boots..They won't loook exactly right, but better then nothing..
I WILL HAVE THIS FOR THIS CON NO MATTER WHAT!!


As for Pokemon, I have a few Mew gijinka ideas, but I also found Mable, a Team Flare Scientist..Totally awesome:
http://www.mcmbuzz.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/flare.jpg (http://www.mcmbuzz.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/flare.jpg)
She's the one with the blue hair, standing on the left..I think i can do this..If not I'll still do Mew but yea..


I've also been working on a Rondo cosplay from Eternal Sonata..Here's Rondo:

So far I don't have much done. Nothing is 100% finished yet..But most of the armor is actually made already..Just need to seal and paint those..

Pirate Seychelles: I already ordered the sword and  black thigh highs, just need to make the outfit and buy the belt and hat etc, and the fabric.
Genin Kushina: I have the wig needs to be styled. also if anyone has any make up tips  to make skin lighter like arms hands chest and face I will have thigh high socks so I'm not worried about legs. Same as the previous need fabric to make the outfit.
Fem Luigi: I ordered the hat and white thigh highs already and then I just need to make the dress and I am all set with this outfit.


As for a fourth cosplay I am not sure yet but my choices are:
Serena-pokemon X and Y
Eska-Legend of Korra
I am open to other suggestions

Ooooh, I'm so excited!

I'm planning on being on a panel and being in the cosplay contest. It'll be a crazy weekend, I know.

My Kumoricon 2014 cosplays are:
Finland (Hetalia)- 90% done, all I need is the flag.
Alice Baskerville (Pandora Hearts)- 0% done, I still need to order it. XD
Discord (My Little Pony)- 1% done, I have a sketch labeled with all the materials I need, I just need money. XD
PoPiPo version Hatsune Miku (Vocaloid)- 1% done. Sketch is done.

I decided to be Discord because he's my favorite villain, and because I haven't seen many Discord cosplays.
I'm just worried about the contacts.
He has yellow irises and red pupils. I was thinking about using the ones homestucks use, but those don't seem quite right.

See you guys next summer, I can't wait!

Top Left: The fabric I got was too dark, so after some experimentation I decided to sand the fabric down with 120 grit paper to make it look more grey. The piece of fabric on top is how it originally looked.

Top Right: Showing the top to bottom differences with the red fabric after two dip dye sessions in red dye

Bottom Left: One devil cut out and next to it a sheet of paper-back web-fused fabric, ready to be turned into another devil!

Bottom Right: The devil on the back of the jacket, ironed on and ready to be stitched down!

-Rises from the grave- Hey! I'm back from the few-month-hiatus-dead! C:


So I am now starting to get ideas and make plans for future cosplays in general.


One cosplay I know for sure I wanna start doing is my FEM!Gamzee. I have this idea to sew the spotted pants as fuzzy pajama shorts for her :0) and possibly spotted stockings too, but the pj shorts is the main project I'm going to work on for the cosplay.


AS for the others, the progress is not planned yet until I lose at least 30 lbs. So if I DO stick with my diet plans, I'm positive I'll lose enough weight by the time K-con cosplay planning comes around c:

Started working on Elesis in her Pyro Knight outfit from elsword. Right now, all I have is the base of the sword done (pic below). It is made of insulation foam and right now only has a dowel for a handle. I am using this dowel as a stability piece and will be putting a PVC pipe over it. It is 5 feet exactly in height and wright now, weighs only about a pond or so..That part that looks like it's broken off and glued back on near the handle, is not broken. I cut it off so that I could have a stable structure inside it. The inserts and 2 sets of 4 pieces of scewer sticks taped together. This way it on't just snap on me.(https://www.kumoricon.org/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi88.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fk188%2FRazorXCore_2006%2Felesis2_zps2a62fbc9.jpg&hash=fe1984f83571afb1fa7a4ff3a48245fbc427a115) (http://s88.photobucket.com/user/RazorXCore_2006/media/elesis2_zps2a62fbc9.jpg.html)

My Ellie shirt arrived last week, so now just have to work on getting in shape then buy new pants for her and I'm done.


Going to work on my Elsa costume this week, I have all the materials I need, and now I also have the time.


I need to order a new corset for Daenerys as the one I had previously gotten was too big, and then I'll be crafting her skirt on my own, dothraki style.


Not sure if I'll be doing Teemo this year, it depends on if my friend is bringing Jinx. Sam is put in the back of the closet and will be brought out if I do not have my other costumes ready.

Finished my Sabrina cosplay from Pokemon (Anime Season 1 ver.)
http://www.cosplay.com/photo/3467423/
Not an "in cosplay" pic, but still..The wig is actually on it's way now, so I have to cut it a little in the bangs, and I need to go buy finishing line to make it so my Pokeball looks like it's levitating..But other then that..


On another Sabrina note..I may actually have another version..I have another cosplay that didn't end up getting done that has a sinilar style to the red in this version..I just have to add the other pieces..
http://www.cosplay.com/photo/3467423/
All the ones in this album are the same..
I WAS gonna do this one:
http://www.pokezam.com/anime/characters/gymleaders/kanto/sabrina.png
But that's the MOST commonly cosplayed version online..So..No..lol Plus, the version I'm doing, is the manga version, BUT also the CARG GAME VERSION!! I use to have ALL of her gen 1 and 2 cards..Like how they had trainer specific ones like titled "Sabrina's Gastly" or "Ash's Pikachu"..I had ALL of her cards when they started that in the first and second gens...Technically I had every card in those gens, but still lol I took special care of hers. Anyway, that version is the same as the manga version (the album linked above). So Imma do that and more then likely wear that instead of my anime one to this con.

I need to stop buying dresses before I know what I'm going to cosplay. I get half an idea when I see something, and then I buy it. And then I'm stuck with something that works with nothing else, and only a partial idea of what I'm going to do with it.

(aka: bought a dress for a maybe-Espeon-maybe-MewTwo gijinka.)

However, found a skirt for fem!Doctor. It's not quite right, so I might end up going with skinny jeans. :< At least I got a decent shirt to go with it.

Okay things around here (my house) have finally sum what calmed down at home so I have time to work on my cosplay for Pirate Seychelles. I made a pattern for a jacket based on one by Angela Clayton a very good cosplayer and seamstress in my opinion anyway I have the back of the jacket pretty much finished just need to sew the two halves together. This jacket is not the color that I want but due to lack of time to create a whole cosplay outfit I will only be making this jacket and a linen shirt for my Pirate Seychelles and use an old dress and white leggings to go with it. (this is to be finished by April for Sakuracon) but I will make a red thinner jacket for Kumoricon and that would be a whole new cosplay outfit except for the linen shirt. 


I have yet to start my other cosplays but I will make my Seychelles cosplay(different outfit same person) dress to fit better and be more flattering.

I posted this in the wrong thread, so I'll put it in here.

This is where I'm at with my planned cosplays, and what they all are:

Scotland - If I do this, it will be if I'm able to get a family-plad kilt. - I have a few websites that have possible kilts.
Ramblin Rod - I mainly need to focus on getting the sweater and as many buttons as possible, hopefully of varying sizes. - I have about 30 buttons.
Poison Ivy - A genderbent version, he will either be a steam punk type or a 1940s type. - Nada.
C. Hawk - An OC pony that is a true Seahawks fan; is similar to Rainbow Dash in design. - A t-shirt and a plan for the cutie mark.

Technically there's only ONE..The reason there are 2 with the same title is because someone started posting 2014 stuff into the 2013 thread and then even after this one was made the mods decided to make that thread have a new title..The people from that thread were still quoting things from 2012 and 2013 thinking they were 2014 related which was why we made the new thread..But no one seems to care that they are looking at a lot of older posts and not realizing it..

I've made a lot of sporadic progress on my costumes, likely all progress on one costume I might not even bring.

I've finished Yuna's FFX staff and all of the work on the obi. For FFX-2 gunner Yuna, I've finished everything but sewing on some trim to the gradient skirt, fixing my stitches on the shorts, and making the Jecht symbol and attaching it to the shirt. Also, debating if I'm going to remake her hair tail or not- I might, but that'll be one of the last things worked on.

I've also started drafting out patterns and bought fabric for another new costume for Kumori.

I'm really glad I started all of this cosplay work a few months ago cause it's given me enough time to look for sales and really look around for things. And make errors.... Always make errors haha... *groans* At least they're errors I can live with.

I'm sad that the forums aren't my go-to Kumoricon hub anymore. I need to change that.

As for progress, I finished my gun-arm for Barret Wallace last night. Compared to the 2009 model (pictured on the left), with a bundle of EVA foam, some poster board, 6 lengths of pipe and a sea of glue, I now have an updated gun-arm far more faithful to the design in the game.

Dude, EveofAbyss, those both look good that I can't really tell which one's the older one O_O I'd believe both could easily have been used by Barret before. I agree, but the constant scrolling and bumping mess on the FB kumoricon is actually more of a headache for me. I can't find photoshoots easily, or see various neat things like progress there.
Title: Re: 2014 : Cosplay Progress Thread
Post by: EveofAbyss on July 20, 2014, 12:04:00 pm
Thanks, Veraca. The one on the left is the older design. I embellished the bands and other details because I was afraid the game's simpler design was too basic and would look boring. (Of course now I disagree, seeing how the current model turned out, but I don't think I would have had the knowledge or skills to make it properly back in 2009.) I still like the look of the older version (inaccuracies aside), it's just lacking some basic prop-making techniques that really help in getting foam to look good. I'm glad to hear it was still a good fit for Barret though! Might give it away or something...

Also, yeah, I much prefer the forums to fb. It functions so much better here. Too bad it's such a ghost town, lol

I'm gonna try a kinda crazy (and kinda expensive) way to improve my vision inside my moogle mascot, since I'm going solo with no one to guide me, holding my stubby moogle arms.  I can hardly see out the eyes, and there's a huge honking blind spot right in the center of my field of vision.  I'm attaching my GoPro camera to the moogle's pom-pom, drilling a hole in the head, and fishing down the video out wire to a pair of video goggles that I'll be wearing, which will hopefully be displaying a live feed.  This is still all in the "pretty sure it'll work" theory stage, but my video goggles are on their way, so I'll be able to know by the weekend if I'll need to head back to the drawing board with a month left...

Changes will include:
-Shorter boots that have a cure "angle" top that it shorter on the inside and taller on the outside.
-Stockings. These will be black and blue just like Stocking from Panty and Stocking (that's what they were last used for haha).
-Ribbon rather than wire wrapping the scythe (Shown in pic below).
-Bat wings on the ankles of the boots
MAYBE changes (Things I'm still thinking over:
-Ribbon corset fronting over the stomach area
-Choker
-Wrist thingies..Like lace cuffs..

I have to work this weekend, so my cosplay time will be pretty short, but hopefully I can get the helmet completed by Sunday night, then I'll just have Barret's waist-guard to remake by Thursday (well, and Ox King's entire outfit, but that's another battle...).

So far what I have left, is to sew the yellow straps together completely (easy) then adding the velcro to make it so I can take them off and put them on lol then do the same with the yellow parts of the other side (the other bag is done, just not the straps) sew the armor on the shoulders, and sew the yellow shoulder straps and DONE!! lol

Besides digging out costume pieces and ironing, I haven't been doing much. For the costumes I'm taking, I'm pretty much all done. A lot of the ironing was on the elastic for Ciel. I do still need to sew (I'm thinking just basting though) an extension to Ciel's shirt so it'll stay tucked in better.
I just have to check out wigs and style Len's. I did finish up his headphones in one day and I'm nerdly happy about them cause they're basically just foam and are really light~

Completely done with Greeling, except for a makeup test and I need to iron the collar of the shirt. Really freaking excited for K-con right now.
