took me 2 hours to sew 2 seams //shakes fist angrily at cold

i should be able to finish this tonight seeing as i've already sewn the main panels in

By Rikki-Leigh. 18/03/10, 02:51 pm

Wow. I made progress today Very Happy

Started cutting Squalo wig. It's pretty easy this time around. It's pretty much perfect from the start except for the front needed shaping and the bottom at the back needs to be shortened.

New polyfilla and gloves get! Tomorrow after work will finish the other side of the sword, then hopefully sand the day after.

@Rikki: ...that was totally not what I expected to see when I opened up a picture of a wig for Squalo, lol. I know WHY the clips are there, but all I see is 'schoolgirl'. orz

So Close to finishing Raspberyl....whats left to do

* Finish wrist bands (sew on white to one and make the other)
* Sew on rest of white and make skulls for the boot bands
* Make horns/Wings/Tail? (only making tail if I have time)
* Dye the wig some more and style it.
* Piant Boot soles pink XD

This thing is still 100% hand sewn (getting a sewing machine on Monday)

Here is what it looks like so far O_o

Spoiler:

Now Stephanie on the other hand....yeah lets not talk about that at the moment.

*cackles maniacally* Oh Abby, I can't wait for our Disgaea group - Raspberyl is looking great! Very Happy

I can't wait either XD....My Rozalin Cosplay (yay sisters bringing it from home) should be here on Monday so Kai can see how much work it needs (old cosplay was made crapily O_o) and hopefully fix it up in time Razz

I think this costume is now my favorite out of all the ones I have ever made General Progress - Page 9 755823

XD Don't worry. I was staring at it before I stopped and I was like ".... Squalo, you are officially a girl."

HNNGH i just finished my underskirt after working on it for about 9 hrs straight (that's just sewing... the painting i don't even want to fathom right now). i am never doing a scalloped hem that long ever again, but i'm super pleased with how it turned out. 8D unfortunately i can't move at all, pretty much... but uh. am hoping i'll be able to get some assistance.

... Wow. Just. Wow. My inner fangirl is squealing right now 8D That looks amazing, Seraphik!

iwuvanime; CUTE SO CUTE.

I looked up whirlpool stitching Lumissne but couldn't find anything about it other than premade bra stuff D: Thanks, though! I'll just stick with the straps, it will save me some headaches.

Amaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaazing, Lucy! *o*

LUCY I WANT YOUR MAD SKILLZ!!! That is AMAZING!
Can't wait to see it IRL!

@ Thread
I JUST MADE A COSPLAY HANDBAG!!! ~~for guitar tabs lol~~
it's so cute and wonderful and I have no idea why I am so excited about a handbag lol

and now to my lilithmon dilemma, to use the shiny side of the fabric or not? General Progress - Page 9 532605

By sakuramiyabi. 19/03/10, 04:42 am

@Mandie: depends if its the whole thing being shiny 83

If you're making the black parts out of something with a nice shine i think you'd want to go for a slightly duller purple fabric base 83

but thats my take on it <3

By Icarus. 19/03/10, 07:36 am

uh, I've locked the wheels on my skates with a crap load of wire
(note for anyone that wants to do roller skate/blade cosplay: DON'T )
Getting the base of Len's sword done-ish, cut out the sheath, & Len's jacket is getting there... ~~OMG 2 WEEKS FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF-~~

Measurements of the top (where I stand) is 9x22cm (I think) and measurements of the bit I'll be precariously balancing on is 2x14.2cm :3

I've had more work done on it since these pictures were taken.

Spoiler:
