I have a question, and it just came to mind... Do to not being able to pre redge, when I go to pay for my con badge, do they accept checks, or do I have to pay with cash?

nikkiolie · « **Reply #57 on:** August 24, 2009, 09:21:03 am »

I think they take checks as long as you make it out to kumoricon but maybe you should email a staff member that question >_>

Sutie · « **Reply #58 on:** August 24, 2009, 10:00:44 am »

gah, I've been producing more cosplay items than.... well I dunno what. but it seems like there is no end! I hope I can get everything done

ok, I'll probably just bring cash anyway, but it was something I was wondering just in case.

nyahaha · « **Reply #60 on:** August 24, 2009, 05:57:29 pm »

I went to joanns today, and got fabric for satoko's tie, felt for some new leeks for Mikuo, and cord to tie on Red XIII's anket. also while I was out I found one of those big crayon bank things at the dollar store. I thought it would be cool if I ever cosplayed as a really small person...like a laptop persocom or something, so I got it. xD

Hidamari · « **Reply #61 on:** August 24, 2009, 06:09:31 pm »

Tonight I'm continuing on Shay's pants and my pockets for Nitori. I'm also sewing up her backpack real quick. I have a lot more to do, plus I'm only on chapter two of Lord Of Flies. I have to read it and write an essay before school starts :x

DooFeRthePanda · « **Reply #64 on:** August 25, 2009, 11:59:51 pm »

i'm almost done with wooper already i started at 4 though and kept takingbreaks. its coming out pretty good to.

bou12345318 · « **Reply #65 on:** August 26, 2009, 12:08:01 am »

I'm almost done with all my cosplays I just need to make some props

Serika · « **Reply #66 on:** August 26, 2009, 12:26:39 am »

I've finished Kou, Jay, and Fenimore for other people... Shirley's about 70% done, and Gas Station Attendant is missing a hat (and a gas pump if I have time...) but I'm mainly concerned about getting prints and stuff done in time.

CLAP_attack · « **Reply #67 on:** August 26, 2009, 12:33:56 am »

Anyone know , Cheap , around town , Boots for a Roy Mustang Cosplay? XD

Payless?

As for stuff that needs to be done: I need to get my badge, cut bangs into my stupid wig, and fix my pants.

Kagome219 · « **Reply #69 on:** August 26, 2009, 12:43:01 am »

I'm just about! All I need to do is get my hair cut and buy ace bandage. ^^ My friend will be bringing my completed Espeon ears and tail when she comes down. The only "maybe" thing is to hem my Haruhi pants. xD

CLAP_attack · « **Reply #70 on:** August 26, 2009, 12:45:33 am »

Ah , Maybe rain boots there xD But I'll see if my mom will let me. If not, then the shoes I have now won't kill the costume

ichigoxcupcakes · « **Reply #71 on:** August 26, 2009, 01:32:10 am »

ok, if that happens to where you don't start on your kimono today, don't be surprised when you hear a knock at like 3 in the moarning (is joking.... or am I)

soundninja12 · « **Reply #76 on:** August 26, 2009, 10:22:26 am »

I'd be kinda honored. I live 3 hours away...

leonmasteries · « **Reply #77 on:** August 26, 2009, 10:25:03 am »

oh, well I can't make it because my car doesn't work, but shouldn't you be starting work on it now instead of replying so that way you can get it done on time? You can take a break every hour or so and come back to the forums, but get to work.

soundninja12 · « **Reply #78 on:** August 26, 2009, 10:36:31 am »

But the pattern is complicated, and I need help with it.
And no one is here to help me.

leonmasteries · « **Reply #80 on:** August 26, 2009, 10:47:43 am »

ah, that sucks... hmmm, think, how can you work with a complicated patter?

soundninja12 · « **Reply #81 on:** August 26, 2009, 10:55:19 am »

I'm waiting for my momma.
The sleeves are all weird, and you have to do this insane twisty thing with them. My mom barely gets it.
That's what I need help with, Griff.
My mom is good at sewing, and she'll help me when she gets back from work.

DooFeRthePanda · « **Reply #82 on:** August 26, 2009, 10:56:42 am »

omg 8 days till i leave for portland sooo excited just finishing up my wooper. i dont think i'll post up pics since the con is soo close anyways.

leonmasteries · « **Reply #83 on:** August 26, 2009, 10:56:49 am »

is this the Botan cosplay that I see in your sig?

soundninja12 · « **Reply #84 on:** August 26, 2009, 10:58:41 am »

Yeah. It's my hardest costume to make.

I'm looking at her pic now, and the hardest thing I see will have to be the arm pieces that go all the way down to the floor, or is it something else that's hard?

Chaotic.Fox · « **Reply #86 on:** August 26, 2009, 11:14:52 am »

I am still behind i have a lot to do, if i have the time and the money i am gonnna remake my Stein shirt, along with my Ashitaka Costume, (which now looks possible with my bow done and my sword in the works.) If I also have time I am not gonna cosplay stein and instead attempt CT Smith.... and if for some odd reason I get alot of money my way, I might even attempt a cosplay that is not really anime, more of a game... Something Called Monkey Island

Wig.
I have to style it myself, and I know that a ponytail doesn't look hard to make, but it is. Harder than you think.

Kagome219 · « **Reply #88 on:** August 26, 2009, 11:16:04 am »

@Katie: Good luck with Botan! I remember when my mother made my kimono a few years ago- it was really hard. x.x

'kay, so... I started (more picked up) another cosplay I wanted to do a while back- Kari from Digimon (season one). I already had the shirt and pants, so this morning I hemmed the pants, made her scarf, and added the "buttons" (white chunks of fabric B: ). I plan to head down to the party store and Dollar Tree to see if either have a whistle. Once I get my hair cut I'll have her costume done. : D (Without shoes, this time.) There probably won't be a way to fit wearing her at the con, though. D:

Asylymescapeie · « **Reply #89 on:** August 26, 2009, 11:21:09 am »

OMG I have to find shoes for my costume and I'm making a kimono and I'm barely started!! I live 6-8 hours away depending on traffic...

leonmasteries · « **Reply #90 on:** August 26, 2009, 11:24:47 am »

@Sound: well hopefully the wig will be fixed soon, so don't worry, because you can fix that quite easily, I'd be more worried about the kimono, even tho you can go as botan in her street wear when they were dealing with the people possessing insects (been a while since I've seen the series, so I don't remember the name)

@Asy: good luck on your kimono, so what time will you be heading to con? or what day would be a much better question?

I was going to make her fish sweater from the Dark Tournament parts. I thought that it would be a fun thing to own.

soundninja12 · « **Reply #93 on:** August 26, 2009, 11:47:47 am »

Dana, You got this!
I'll have to spend a while with you in the artist alley, we don't want you to be lonely!

leonmasteries · « **Reply #94 on:** August 26, 2009, 11:48:06 am »

@asy: I will be heading down there on that friday as well with my friends, depending on what time they swing by to pick me up, but it's going to be during the day, so that should be fun to see the people arriving somewhat early, and who knows I might try cosplaying that day if I'm not helping with anything.

@sound: ya, that will be cool, because your doing something a lot of people normally wont do, and I admire those people the most... Because I really don't like to see a lot of the same cosplay, I want to see variety so as to have a much more diverse con instead of 50 naruto's, 50 ichigos, and a bunch of the same. That's why I am going as one that if I'm not lucky, will probably one, maybe 2 more of the same character at Kumoricon, which I'm fine with.

soundninja12 · « **Reply #95 on:** August 26, 2009, 11:51:15 am »

I hate being people that a bunch of people cosplay, it makes me feel irrelevant, and even if your cosplay is amazing, there are too many people cosplaying the same person to actually pay attention.
Thus, one of the reasons I dropped Sora.
And I also seemed to choose the one character from OHSHC that no one wants to cosplay. Go figure.

leonmasteries · « **Reply #96 on:** August 26, 2009, 11:54:52 am »

that's good, I despise being grouped with a bunch of others because I am wearing the same thing as everyone else, which is why I refuse to cosplay as mainly any naruto character or bleach character, because I can gurantee that I will find at least 2 or more of the same character wandering around con. So at even tho you chose the one character no one else want's to cosplay is, that means you are more original... As for me, I am going to skip taking pics of anyone who's wearing an outfit that many other people are wearing, because it's no fun, I am looking for people that are original and look decent.

Chandra Nalaar · « **Reply #97 on:** August 26, 2009, 06:46:35 pm »

I just found the perfect ledger for Kyoya today, which now covers pretty much everything I can actually take on a train. I'm already mostly packed up right now, and I can hardly wait.

lightbeam911 · « **Reply #98 on:** August 26, 2009, 10:02:54 pm »

I just ordered my skirt and blazer from Alloy.
...
Watch it get here the day after the con LOL.

I'm such a procrastinator. And therefore, I just started my cosplay three days ago, and all I have left to buy are some hair clips 8D I work well under pressure.
I also owe my dad 38.00$ from the final cost.
He just doesn't know it yet.

DooFeRthePanda · « **Reply #99 on:** August 26, 2009, 11:40:52 pm »

omg one pony tail is hard (misty) but doing two is HELL. i'm suprised mine came out good for my first wig styling!
