HEY. HEY GUYS.

Spoiler:

Not bad for three days of work, amirite? Wink

I drafted the patterns for the duster and the skirt myself. Arm-warmers were winged :B Shorts were converted from a pair of pants, camisole was in my wardrobe. Um. I neglected to take a picture of the finished duster by itself with its 4.8m of bias tape. But here's some of the skirt!

Also my magical magnetic needle/scissors:

^ wow i wish i was that productive, lmfao.

^Bawww <3 Thanks alot C: I've been like, working on 4 cosplays at once <3 Nearly done *A*

And I've been doing more work on my dress tonight. Added a little clip at the back, sewed my zip in properly, sewed the straps on better, sewed the third tier on properly. Tomorrow I shall make me some more ruffles for the last tier and sew my second sleeve and probably the blindfold too!

Belt, missing bias tape. Duster, with bias tape!

Spoiler:

I might need a white fabric pen (bleach pen?) if they exist and some white bias tape too. Then onto the wings painted on the duster and weapons... then I'm done? Wow, that was quick. There's not even any 'Geddons I'm going to soon. :0

eta: Finished the belt yo! Made the bias myself, fixed up the paint a little (acrylic and a bit of water, correction pen, charcoal pencil and ink pen) and yeah. Wicked. 8Db

You can get bleach pens, but sometimes bleach gives you colours you weren't expecting, so make sure you test it first. Failing that - TWINK! Very Happy

Last night I finished the moulding of the backplate, put a few more coats of paint on the shoulders and breastplate, put the first coat of paint on the backplate. Woke up with morning - more paint on the breastplate, shoulders and backplate, moulded and painted the navelplate.

To do tonight - a coat of gold paint, possibly two, on the backplate and shoulder. Rivet all armour together, make straps to enable this. Make spiky knees, attach to boots. Tacking stitch skirt so that it doesn't make Kitten's dreams come true every time I move.

Also, pack my responsibility of the exhibition and cosplay panels. *sob*

I may never want to pleat again.

Each pleat is hand sewn where it meets the next and there are five rows (one is just over the edge of the table)

Mina dress from Dracula. I have now cut all the fabric for the pleats and I have 6.5M left from a 22.5m length I originally bought.

Plus lots (lots) of scraps to make the leaves. Oh the leaves. Well I did figure out how to make them and I know how to make them fairly quickly. But with so many hundreds of the suckers:

I may still go mad.

I hate cutting out patterns SO MUCH.

On that note Subaru's jacket has been cut out. Will cut out the interfacing either tomorrow or Sunday.

WOW, KYOKYOGIRL, SHINY! @o@

Been hot gluing and making Estelle's blastia out of cardboard.... I may need to do it again, since I've figured out how I could fasten it onto my wrist (WHICH IS SO TINY OMFG), instead of having it big enough to slide over my hand....

By **seraphik**. 28/08/10, 11:47 am

serah progress... armband finished last night. pleather + hot glue + paper fasteners = ???

I was making the other layer of my Lenalee skirt, until my sewing machine decided it doesn't like staying threaded.

By Squishy blob. 29/08/10, 12:01 pm

Painted a hairclip for Melt! Miku and got a pattern for my magnet dress. Mum paid for it, which probably means she'll pay for fabric and stuff too >D.
