Looks great both of you ^_^

I got the materials I needed to start working on Kojuro's armor for Mike. Though i found out I may need to buy some more green paint -_- I am going to try to mix the dark green I got with some white and hope I can make the color I want.

Black~Rose · « **Reply #701 on:** February 10, 2012, 08:58:50 pm »

I am going to strip the paint and re do them with leather paint because the spray paint chips pretty bad X_X Trial and error I guess. I am learning.

Wow everyone's cosplays are turning out so fabulously! ;OOO; Sooo amazing you guuuyyysss!
I got the tights I needed to make armsocks for my Tavros cosplay today. I'm really excited to start working on them, I think that'll be my project for Monday! > W<

I forgot to take pics of my Shinra cosplay today... >.> I wore it for 12 hours today. XD From school to just a couple hours ago.

But it looks AMAZING! I love my wig, it looks just like Shinra's hair

Did a make-up test for my BMO Gijinka a couple days ago.... I was trying to use as little of my Ben Nye stuff as possible, so the color is no where near as even or deep as it will be when I actually do the cosplay, but I'm really pleased with the product! I have a lot going on the next couple weeks, but I'm hoping to get back to making plenty of cosplay progress again once March hits!

@Cyberincision: FFFFFF... those are both amazing!!! Yukina is like my dream cosplay, and I've always thought Android 18 was awesome so I am super pumped to see these! =D

And you're actually using body paint!!! Your BMO is going to be super amazing!! I can't wait to see it in action at con! The Adventure Time group is going to be so wonderful

You guys all look great!!

I'm still trying to decide what I'm going to start on next. Probably Sophie or Rose. (:

nyahaha · « **Reply #709 on:** February 12, 2012, 09:18:54 am »

I got most of the stuff I need to make the Gold Robot's jacket and pants~ I'm still missing a few things, so I'll get them next weekend and get started on sewing!

Black~Rose · « **Reply #710 on:** February 12, 2012, 10:20:47 am »

I'll be finishing up Kira's goggles today

nikkiolie · « **Reply #711 on:** February 12, 2012, 10:23:02 am »

Laurie bought the material to make her Yukimura jacket. I'm going to start working on that probably tomorrow after I get some measurements from her.

Chibachi Nero · « **Reply #712 on:** February 12, 2012, 01:57:58 pm »

I babysat yesterday so now I've got the money to finish up my costumes! I just need ribbons and socks for PB and some new lipstick for Rose, but I'm also getting some stuff for friends. I should be able to go shopping before the end of the month to get what I need.

Black~Rose · « **Reply #713 on:** February 12, 2012, 05:18:59 pm »

Kira Goggles

CyberIncision · « **Reply #714 on:** February 12, 2012, 10:27:29 pm »

Now to begin construction on my Dorothy Wayneright dress

Maiku · « **Reply #715 on:** February 13, 2012, 12:33:21 am »

Everything for Kojuro and Parn is now cut out and ready to be sewn. Tomorrow I'll sew Kojuro's pants and under-kimono, I'll also probably sew together the base for his chest armor.

veraca · « **Reply #716 on:** February 13, 2012, 02:45:57 am »

Over the weekend I washed the trim for Richea x.x; nice and clean. Forgot to iron it though... but it's not nearly as crinkled as before, so that's good. But there are some parts that twisted in the dryer, so they might need to be ironed before I can use them.

I also have a familiar sight of Richea's wig on my tripod in my room with a plastic bag on it.... I spent like 30 min trying to make it as smooth as possible on the top. It's a tad crooked on the head, so I'm going to adjust it after the glue finishes drying x.x; I sprayed the heck outta it.

CLAP_attack · « **Reply #717 on:** February 13, 2012, 03:53:38 am »

So Ive procrasted a lot and the days till kumoricon are depleting. dgfasdgfd
Weds ' I plan to go out and get the rest of the supplies I need with my friend hwo also needs to get supplies LOL.;;
so ..
yeah.

fluffpuffgerbil · « **Reply #718 on:** February 13, 2012, 07:27:50 am »

Today I might take Shinra out for a "test run" at the mall!

I'm debating whether or not to go ahead and look for pieces for a Celty cosplay. I've been wanting to do something artsy and working on her helmet should be fun.
Plus, I think I could pull off her leather one-suit nicely. ;P
Just, I'm not sure where to get a leather onesuit....Or maybe I could just find a tight leather top and tight leater pants? Whaddyo think? I honestly dont' want to have to buy anything else online

icanhaspocky · « **Reply #719 on:** February 13, 2012, 09:17:42 pm »

A few days ago, I bought the fabric and such for Maka's jacket, only to realize that I forgot to get buttons for her cuffs O.o I'll just have to get them next time. Haha. Although I'm sure the jacket will be mostly done by then.

TalaRedWolf33 · « **Reply #720 on:** February 13, 2012, 10:33:34 pm »

Alright so! Ima gonna get started on my Fem!Heavy and Cubchoo gijinka cosplays sometime this coming week.
I've got my leggings, and boots for my Heavy. Still need black vest, red shirt, and to make my bandolier. Just can't decide how to make it.
Anyone have any ideas?

Chibiorochimaru · « **Reply #721 on:** February 13, 2012, 10:49:10 pm »

for your bandolier I know some costume stores have belts for that, maybe get of those and alter it a bit for an over the shoulder fit?

As for progress I started on my Tentecles for tentaspy and started fixing up my Medi-Gun >< Not very modivated as of late.

OokamiYami · « **Reply #722 on:** February 14, 2012, 12:19:11 am »

Bought a Build-A-Sound voice box and recorded Ragnarok's scream for my Ragnarok plush toy, plus just ordered a doll armature skeleton for Ragnarok as well.

Oh yeah, I got pants for my sister's Luka cosplay as well!

veraca · « **Reply #723 on:** February 14, 2012, 01:57:44 am »

Oooh I'm excited to see how the Ragnarok will turn out, Ookami! ^^

I'm styling my new Roxas wig. It is a bit on the orange side, but it isn't too bad I think... Currently it's hanging upside-down via plastic shopping bag and tripod with a soda can holding a spike in place as it dries...

Tanuki19 · « **Reply #724 on:** February 14, 2012, 07:28:10 am »

^ I think it looks good!

nekovamp13 · « **Reply #725 on:** February 14, 2012, 09:48:11 am »

I'm trying to fix my coat for my Cheshire cat....Gonna take a while for that, so I'll be starting on my claw.

I just bought my wig for male Rarity, so that should be on it's way soon.

I haven't really done much....

nikkiolie · « **Reply #726 on:** February 14, 2012, 04:20:29 pm »

I started working on Laurie's Yukimura jacket. So far it is turning out alright. My sewing machine wont sew through four layers of pleather so I have to hand sew most of it, but it gives me something to do at work. I got all the pieces cut out and the body pinned together. I am hoping to get it all sewn together tonight. Then tomorrow I will sew the sleeves to the jacket and then finally add the top stitch to the whole thing, and all the detailing (studs, black stripes and the coins on the back)

Here is the progress I have on Yukimura's jacket

refrence picture
http://i.animecrazy.net/spring05048.jpg

This isn't for me so it will be a little better fitted on Laurie.

veraca · « **Reply #729 on:** February 14, 2012, 08:57:37 pm »

Oooh looks really good, Nikki

@Tanuki - it photographs lighter than it is for some reason. It's much more goldeny orange in person.
I got some more spikes done, and its' right side up for now. I also shortened the long top spikes cause they were looking too long and thin for my liking.

But my boyfriend might make his. And for that I found a great how to on instructables.com

I'm gonna go to Goodwill today to get some stuff I need to finish my ears for Ches. And I'm gonna look through the clothes to see if I get inspiration on what to wear for him....Besides the coat and boots, I don't know what I wanna wear XD

Also, I bought the vest for male Rarity! And I'm gonna work on Kid and probably Pluto...

Titus_Love_Doll · « **Reply #734 on:** February 15, 2012, 12:35:59 pm »

I been working hard but i need some help and i have to sale my lolita to get it all done and finished lol woot lolita

Drauska · « **Reply #735 on:** February 15, 2012, 04:47:12 pm »

My secret cosplay is gonna start coming together soon. Just got the street lamp globe in the mail today to start making the helmet! Woot!

CLAP_attack · « **Reply #736 on:** February 16, 2012, 05:02:49 pm »

got my cosplay ! have a lot to fix on it ... and still working on the blades c: .. about .... 30% done !

Tanuki19 · « **Reply #737 on:** February 16, 2012, 06:16:36 pm »

My Rose shoes came in the mail today. I had found another pair of blue flats at goodwill the day after i ordered these but the ones i ordered are a better color so I'll just keep both of them. The other ones can be backups XD

nekovamp13 · « **Reply #738 on:** February 16, 2012, 09:59:12 pm »

I found a perfect jacket to use as my base for Matt's vest so I'm probably gonna end up being him to con now XD

Also I took out the zipper of my jacket for Ritsuka so I can put a different one in.

And I figured out a way to solve a problem I had with my Cheshire coat.

Chromophobic · « **Reply #739 on:** February 16, 2012, 10:06:59 pm »

My Jareth wig came in~ Sadly I dont have any photos of it yet considering Ive had a really rough week...v.v But this weekend I hope to style it more and post photos. :3
AND my wedding dress pattern came in for Yuna :3

OokamiYami · « **Reply #740 on:** February 17, 2012, 03:02:38 am »

Ragnarok's upper torso is complete. Now to work on the ball-shaped shoulders and the two spikes on his back in the morning. :3

Chromophobic · « **Reply #741 on:** February 17, 2012, 06:02:50 pm »

@Ookami: Looks good!~

Got pictures of my Jareth wig. Sadly my camera died so I had to stick with my cellphone camera. >.<
Still needs to be styled, and I am also going to find some blonde clip-on extensions since the wig is a tiny bit shorter then I thought it would be.

veraca · « **Reply #742 on:** February 17, 2012, 07:21:43 pm »

A punky in 613 might work for Jareth.. It's what my roommate's named my wig until I style it XD It's "Jareth!"

CLAP_attack · « **Reply #743 on:** February 17, 2012, 08:35:44 pm »

did two days worth of cutting and sanding ! all theres left to do is touch ups and painting .. ahhh yes.

not a recent picture but it sorta shows how the blades cave in to look like .. blades.

veraca · « **Reply #744 on:** February 18, 2012, 03:43:13 am »

I just finished the hoopskirt. I have to still adjust the top of the petticoat (evil thing) and get the trim on the skirt itself. I can try to do it alone, but it's pretty hard to pin something into place and make marks to cut and stuff when you have to lean over yourself x.x

toonafeesh · « **Reply #745 on:** February 18, 2012, 12:59:21 pm »

To be honest, I've been slacking so much! I haven't had time to work on cosplays in between school, homework, work, and swim team. But Swim Team is over, and the family I cleaned for is moving away so I only have to worry about school stuff.

Anywho, my goal today is to tidy up my cosplay room (I'm so happy! I finally have a room to put all my stuff in!!) so I can actually work, etc. But then I'm going to style the Canaan wig that came in a couple weeks ago. And then I'll probably finish sewing her shirt as well. Then tomorrow my hopes are to finish Clare's other pauldron, and then carve them, and attach them to the armguards. And maybe if I have time, I'll put a layer of papir mache on the sword <-- my nemesis.

EmAino · « **Reply #746 on:** February 18, 2012, 02:32:37 pm »

Keep trying to find a Uranus wig that I'm happy with, but not meeting with any success.

Will probably order the boots like right after I get off here though.

Rofflz · « **Reply #747 on:** February 18, 2012, 04:04:48 pm »

Today I'm going to try and be very productive. I'm trying to finish as much stuff as possible before I move.
So my plans for today are to finish Stocking's dress and bow. Finish Mio's skirt and start her blazer/coat. Start Len's Meltdown shirt and accessories and style my Len wig. T^T I hope I can do most of this today.

ichigo_m. · « **Reply #748 on:** February 18, 2012, 09:31:48 pm »

I'm thinking of adding either Madoka, Homura, or Mami (from Magical Girl Madoka Magi) to my list for K-con. But I can't decide which.... Any suggestions?

Chibachi Nero · « **Reply #749 on:** February 18, 2012, 11:14:51 pm »

^Based on the pictures you've posted here, you'd be a really cute Mami.
