Gah, i finally figure out what i want to do for amageddon, mokona, tails and possibly starkiller (heavy training gear) and now i realise i dont have a clue how to make them.
if anyone can suggest what to do in terms of materials or just how to actually design the things (i is a noob to cosplaying sad ) that would be appreciated

There are millions of resources out there, in books, online tutorials, forums- the hard part is finding the one you need.

1. Analyse the costume and break it into steps. It's daunting to think "how do I make a starkiller costume" -start with "how do I make a cape?" "how do I make gauntlets?" then break it down again "how do I stitch" .

2. Find someone who has cosplayed the character and flick them an email. Most people are delighted to tell you how they made their outfit, or answer any questions you have.

Right, yeah sorry for not putting those on. Kinda slim pickings in terms of photos/pics of the characters available but heres some;

The last ones pretty huge but good for showing details.

@Mischa; Thanks for that. I think i saw somebody who did do the starkller one before so i will ask them.
