I might possibly be doing a Minami cosplay, and I was wondering if anyone else intended on cosplaying Lucky Star. If there's enough of us we could schedule a photo shoot

Sugarlat · « **Reply #1 on:** August 11, 2008, 01:45:45 am »

I could possibly do a Miyuki if I have time...
Summer/winter uniform or um...cheerleading outfit?

nyahaha · « **Reply #2 on:** August 11, 2008, 07:35:56 am »

im doing tsukasa in summer uniform, one of my friends is being konata in summer uniform, and another friend might be Kagami in the summer uniform (we dont know if she can get it finished)

Argh....I don't have a pleated skirt pattern...Hmm...I can't order one now..It would take to long...
Um...I might be able to make it...I've never made a pleated skirt before...I can try....
I'll have to go to Joans and buy pattern and about 2 yards of blue fabric...I'll probably use an old white t-shirt or something....
Hmm....stressful...now I WANT to cosplay it!

i posted in the big cosplay progress thread, but in case you dont see it ill give the pattern here too. its butterick #4686 skirt B. if you want i can also tell you wut fabric i used. i think butterick is on sale now...

It is quite painful how close to the con it is right now. I wish that I would've realized my urge to cosplay from Lucky Star sooner ^_^,

Maybe I'll get a really great Minami wig, and wear my TMoHS uniform. I could say that I was cosplaying Minami cosplaying Yuki

Oh the joy of cop outs!

Sugarlat · « **Reply #6 on:** August 11, 2008, 10:20:38 pm »

I was going to do that with Konata XDD
But I couldn't get my hands on a blue wig in time...
So now I'm relying on my magical ability to make cosplays quickly with high quality!
Nyahaha-chan! I finished the skirt and I'm starting on the Sailor fuku collar....but I need to know what size of bias tape to use...
And how to attach it.....

That sucks about the lack of wiggage. I found the perfect Minami wig on ebay ^_^

Sugarlat · « **Reply #8 on:** August 11, 2008, 11:32:47 pm »

If you want it you better order it now so it comes on time.

oslapedo · « **Reply #9 on:** August 11, 2008, 11:37:20 pm »

I know ^_^, I shall be ordering tommorrow, it should get here just in the nick of time!

Sugarlat · « **Reply #10 on:** August 11, 2008, 11:55:53 pm »

[/goes digging through the closet for a white shirt to destroy for LS cosplay.]
I'm to lazy to make one...i hate attaching sleeves...
Oh here's a picture of the pink wig I'll use for Miyuki.

oslapedo · « **Reply #11 on:** August 12, 2008, 12:02:41 am »

That's a great wig! I think I'm about to rupture into spiraling depression because the single greatest Minami wig ever isn't available ANYWHERE.

nyahaha · « **Reply #12 on:** August 12, 2008, 07:38:45 am »

im so happy that there's a miyuki! ummm ill find the size...*searching through room* FOUND IT!!!! ok so its white, single fold, 1/2" wide, and there's 4 yards of it (the brand is wrights, but i think thats the only brand...im not sure)

nyahaha · « **Reply #13 on:** August 12, 2008, 07:48:12 am »

oslapedo,
i found a wig that might work, its on ebay, but its from hong kong so i dont know if it will make it
http://cgi.ebay.com/PW167-Lake-Green-Medium-Spike-Cosplay-Party-Hair-Wig_W0QQitemZ130246218853QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item130246218853&_trkparms=72%3A1075%7C39%3A1%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C240%3A1318&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&timeout=1218552190312

if you go to cosworx.com they have the right color, if you find the right style...but the wigs are kinda spendy...

oslapedo · « **Reply #14 on:** August 12, 2008, 11:24:16 am »

It'd make it in time, at most taking 2 weeks

It's a pretty good wig, but when I think about the one I had originally discovered...

Scroll down a bit to see the best Minami wig ever.

oslapedo · « **Reply #16 on:** August 12, 2008, 12:31:51 pm »

I know!

I really should've just gotten before. I've soured the entire web and haven't found another rendition of it *sniff* Worst case scenario I just wait until they sell it again and do Lucky Star next year *sniff*

Also is that the same color you guys are using?

nyahaha · « **Reply #21 on:** August 12, 2008, 04:47:02 pm »

it should be do you remember what the name of the fabric color was?

Sugarlat · « **Reply #22 on:** August 12, 2008, 05:27:56 pm »

It was called River blue like you told me, and I got it in the quilt section.
it was like $4 a yard

oslapedo · « **Reply #23 on:** August 12, 2008, 08:55:56 pm »

I don't really have a budget since I'm trying to not spend any money at all

But I should've gotten that Minami wig while I coud've. Ah well. Maybe I'll settle fo the one you showed me.

nyahaha · « **Reply #24 on:** August 13, 2008, 07:35:29 am »

Sugarlat-yes its right, thats the stuff i got whoopies!

Oslapedo-i hope you find one that works! im looking for a cheaper tsukasa wig. someone else won the bid D=. but i think i found another yay!

nyahaha · « **Reply #25 on:** August 13, 2008, 12:15:47 pm »

i just bought a tsukasa wig! yay! i cant wait for it to get here!!!!!

oslapedo · « **Reply #26 on:** August 13, 2008, 12:34:11 pm »

Yay! I still am having no luck on my front! xD

Sugarlat · « **Reply #27 on:** August 13, 2008, 01:22:46 pm »

I'm working on the sailor fuku collar...
I shortened the skirt just to touch my fingertips and I'll add on the tape...
I got twill tape instead cause it seemed better...
How far from the bottom of the skirt and the sailor fuku collar edge do i put the tape?
I don't want to put it to far or to close...

nyahaha · « **Reply #28 on:** August 13, 2008, 01:57:10 pm »

i think like 2 inches from the bottom...remember there are two lines so put them an inch apart from each other

nyahaha · « **Reply #29 on:** August 15, 2008, 07:48:54 am »

ugg. i lost the gosh darn zipper for my skirt, now i need to go buy a new one...

Sugarlat · « **Reply #30 on:** August 15, 2008, 08:47:43 am »

I used an invisable zipper.
I need to buy more twill tape XD
I only have one line on my skirt and i can't close up the shirt until I add the ribbons on the cuffs.

nyahaha · « **Reply #31 on:** August 16, 2008, 04:09:28 pm »

wahoo! i got a new zipper!!!!!

oslapedo · « **Reply #32 on:** August 16, 2008, 07:49:03 pm »

Yay! And I don't think I'll be able to do LS this year. I'll make sure that next year I'm a super fabulous Minami for you guys though ^_^

Sugarlat · « **Reply #33 on:** August 16, 2008, 08:01:56 pm »
