Been awhile since I've been on forums. Got my savings for Vash the stampede coat half-way there. Should still be able to get it at end of June. Then I just need a black blazer for Wolfwood. If I can't get a good blazer I will do the female version. Got the materials for the cross punisher and will start that in a couple of weeks (still carving way to the dawn for my sister's riku cosplay) Cheers!

>dye blonde wig with Scarlet Red
>get Rosy Pink
>okay...

I'll just dye it again and be sure to let it sit for longer next time.

Other progress: ordered my Black Widow bodysuit (HOPE TO GOD IT FITS), and contacts and body paint for Scanty.

YESSS, BLACK WIDOW IS MY LIFE. I like my Starfire wig's color for BW but there's no way that I can use that wig for anyone but Starfire once I style it.

I m freaking out D: my vk uniform is $30 and i m short $10 and she wants to meet up friday so we can do it >< and im trying to sell stuff for $10 dollars D: and its like dang $10 before tomorrow at 2:30 >< gah what am i going to do

sandrobotticelli · « **Reply #1665 on:** May 20, 2011, 08:43:01 pm »

I usually don't do sketches for cosplay ideas, but I actually did this time. I did a quick sketch of what I want my Bianca cosplay to look like, or a general idea. Depending on the width I pick for the wig the hair accessories will change. I'm planning on doing some fabric shopping tomorrow~

govi · « **Reply #1666 on:** May 20, 2011, 11:46:56 pm »

Going to start sewing on Iroh's tunic and pants next weekend, and already have the boots painted. The only thing that I really still need to get going on is the armor.

Tanuki19 · « **Reply #1667 on:** May 21, 2011, 10:54:20 am »

I've been helping my friend look for some kind of jacket thing for her Panda Hero cosplay but so far no luck DX

luvan1me · « **Reply #1668 on:** May 21, 2011, 05:32:06 pm »

wait are you talking about the pink haired version's jacket right? the camo patterned one?

cuz i found this one: http://cgi.ebay.com/Quality-Camouflage-Reversible-Jacket-Size-Large-/190534968626?pt=US_CSA_MC_Outerwear&hash=item2c5cc4e532#ht_500wt_1156
and this one: http://cgi.ebay.com/NWT-Camouflage-Army-Military-Fashion-Hooded-Jacket-XL-/170540344866?pt=US_CSA_WC_Outerwear&hash=item27b4ff2622#ht_500wt_922

it's really hard to find a good jacket like that :/

Tanuki19 · « **Reply #1669 on:** May 22, 2011, 06:54:14 pm »

i actually found a good army green sweater dress at St. Vincent De Paul's today!

BLACK WIDOW BODY SUIT, GET.

The only innacurate thing about it is that the sleeves are too short, but those'll get covered up once I make her gloves and wrist bullets. Also gotta dye my real Natasha wig again to a red, make her belt, make a gun, make a knife and find new boots.

StarryShay · « **Reply #1672 on:** May 23, 2011, 05:06:25 pm »

Where'd you order it from, it looks good.

oslapedo · « **Reply #1673 on:** May 23, 2011, 05:14:22 pm »

A fetish store on ebay called nawtyfox, I don't think they have zentai suits though.

Isn't that hair already red? Nice suit, though... I think I'll look up that eBay account and get it, or something like it, for Chauna...

Update: WHOA!!! THEY HAVE SAILOR SCOUT OUTFITS!!! MAYBE THEY HAVE NEPTUNE!!!

Update #2: ARRRGH!!! THEY HAVE EVERY SCOUT EXCEPT FOR NEPTUNE!!! (Maybe I can send them a message and see if they have her, but not on their site...)

Just looking for a wig for My vk cosplay

LtCommanderRichie · « **Reply #1680 on:** May 27, 2011, 05:49:01 pm »

Bought my wig for Loki at the Arda booth today at Fanime. Can't wait to start putting beads and stuff in it~

When I get home on Monday I should have fur swatches to choose from for my cape. I just have to find a few good references so I can decide on length and shape.

StarryShay · « **Reply #1681 on:** May 27, 2011, 05:57:28 pm »

$18 on cosplay.com, I am sorry.

fleur_fraise · « **Reply #1685 on:** May 27, 2011, 09:48:13 pm »

Hey Shay you could get this one and straighten it. I have two wigs from this shop (my black curly one and my Miku one) and they're both super nice; plus it's only $25 including shipping.

chelseahavoc · « **Reply #1686 on:** May 27, 2011, 09:55:42 pm »

started work on rinoa! made extensions to clip into my wig and the duster is all cut out waiting to be sewn n.n

Drauska · « **Reply #1687 on:** May 31, 2011, 09:45:02 am »

Got the cross punisher started. It's all drawn out and in a couple of weeks I'm headed to a friends house to use her husbands scroll saw to cut it all out. I think I will be done with it ahead of schedule. Sisters Way of the dawn is almost all carved out. just need to plaster and paint it.

LtCommanderRichie · « **Reply #1688 on:** May 31, 2011, 10:14:13 am »

Got my swatches for Loki's cape and I'm definitely going with the thicker one, the shag is thin as hell and just doesn't look very good at all. Gonna have to wait until I pay off tuition/the room for Fanime gets billed to me before I do though.

Titus_Love_Doll · « **Reply #1689 on:** May 31, 2011, 02:03:03 pm »

Finally got the new measurements and problem area photos taken for my HG commissioner. Five emails sent and now I just have to wait to hear back from him. This costume WILL be done for Kumoricon. 8C

Then after HG is done my next project will be Angelica Teach from the new Pirates movie. (To go with my boyfriend's Jack Sparrow. Hurrrrrr.)

I've decided to start getting to work on Raven as soon as possible.

The other day I bought a pattern for the cloak since it was on sale, so that's done. I have gray tights and I already know what brand of body paint I'm going to buy. I have shoes that I need to paint with fabric paint.
For the cloak I'm going to use the same kind of fabric that I used for my PB dress, which I bought at Fabric Depot. Next time they have a big sale I'll get some.
As for the wig, Sahara is giving me one of her old ones to either use or practice with. I'll do a practice and if it turns out well then I'll dye it slightly more blue than purple.
For her gems on her belt I think I'm going to commission someone, and I know just who to ask...

LtCommanderRichie · « **Reply #1695 on:** May 31, 2011, 11:58:26 pm »

Did you know that depending on the artist, a character design in a comic book can change from issue to issue?

fml fml fml fml fml fml there are no concrete designs for Loki and I can't decide which one I like better effffffffff myyyyyyyy liiiiiiiiife

Though now I get to have fun with my design. Perhaps a melding of the more popular two...

LtCommanderRichie · « **Reply #1696 on:** June 01, 2011, 10:54:47 pm »

More progress~

For some reason the supports for my horns look absoballyloutely massive on my wig head but they look just fine on me. Honestly, if they were much smaller I wouldn't be very Norse.

Thanks for the tip! Too bad I'm broke XD;; I love that sale. It's so worth the 45 minute commute!

LT., you're right, haha. Norse mythology seem to hold heavily on the "Go Big Or Go Home" thing. The shape looks great. I know exactly what you're going for, and I haven't seen "Thor" or anything of the sort yet.
