Ok I just got a step closer to my costume, I got my "fabirc" for my costume

nyahaha · « **Reply #2352 on:** August 29, 2009, 04:31:31 pm »

I started on the geta for Red XIII, but when I went to salvation army, I found some there that actually fit my feet. And they were on sale, so now I don't have to make them, and I have another part of red XIII done. Also, last night I made Satoko's tie. Just gotta do her sleeves, and get some new tights for her.

The flat side should be in back.

I ALMOST ALWAYS load them in flat side in front, and that affects A LOT.

Sweet googly moogly. Lavi is done too. I finished all his accessory bits!

That knife actually used to be a plastic Party City pirate dagger. It looked kinda like a cutlass, and I cut off the hilt and hand guard and part of the blade to make the correct shape and then painted the handle red. It's not exact, but it's pretty dayum passable.

DooFeRthePanda · « **Reply #2363 on:** August 29, 2009, 10:06:01 pm »

wow were almost done with rkkus wig its soo pretty!!!!!!!!!!!

veraca · « **Reply #2365 on:** August 29, 2009, 11:03:03 pm »

Sew them on? oO; And add fabric glue & hot glue.

Awsome color for the Link wig. Look between Link pics and decide on what hair you want, cause he's got 2 or so styles for his bangs.

mangakaluna · « **Reply #2366 on:** August 29, 2009, 11:09:35 pm »

Thanks veraca!
The wig looks even better in natural sunlight <3 I'm so pleased!!
I'm not going to try styling it until I get my hat done, so I know what needs to be covered =3=

Just a random thought, if you wanted to try something fancy with tail positioning and such.. what you could do is wear a belt backwards underneath the outfit, and use wires attached to the buckle to stick out and hold/position the tails.

Then I'd say just sew the tails on, and when you take the outfit off, if it's possible, simply undo the belt when you're removing the tail portion of the costume, and it all stays together for the next day and easy re-assembly.

This is, of course, all assuming the outfit is designed to cover the entire mid-section. It's not such a good idea of a portion of your stomach and/or waist is visible. Unless you used an orange belt. XD

OwO I found great Link boots at Ross today. I am happy.
But I couldn't find any cream-colored leggings D:

mangakaluna · « **Reply #2370 on:** August 30, 2009, 03:56:46 pm »

Link costume so far!
I still need to hem the sleeves and bottom, add eyelets and lacing to some parts, and spiff up the tunic a bit for the actual outfit part.

Still need to make the hat and style my wig.

LtCommanderRichie · « **Reply #2371 on:** August 30, 2009, 05:20:00 pm »

Your wig looks fine the way it is, actually.

GAH. I can't find my black shorts so I'm gonna have to make my own by Thursday. Slaggit D:

mangakaluna · « **Reply #2372 on:** August 30, 2009, 05:26:06 pm »

It needs a little bit of a trim and some hairspray, I keep getting stabbed in the eyes by the bangs, and they won't stay parted properly.

animeotakujoanne · « **Reply #2373 on:** August 30, 2009, 05:41:31 pm »

Failage once again.
Me and my friend spent two days working on my cosplay jacket for taiga but were only able to make a test copy, thus we cut out the material for the final version and what not. However, when I went to the thrift store today, I found the perfect jacket that was all sewed and what not, and I just have to alter it to get the corners/length that I want. So now I have all these cut out jacket pieces laying around for me to do someday (When I not have only 2 days to work on it V.V)

chelseahavoc · « **Reply #2374 on:** August 30, 2009, 05:59:50 pm »

=O soooo you know how i added a handle to my mask... i took it off and but the ribbon back on it... turns out it didnt press too much on the crecent moon... it just elaves a nice crecent shaped indent on my forhead xD

veraca · « **Reply #2375 on:** August 30, 2009, 06:41:09 pm »

XD Isnt' that painful, Chelsea?

chelseahavoc · « **Reply #2376 on:** August 30, 2009, 07:01:35 pm »

not realy... just makes me more of a moonie xD

LtCommanderRichie · « **Reply #2377 on:** August 30, 2009, 07:39:21 pm »

D:< I am not a pleased Richie. No I am not.

I can't find my @!&*#$^(@*&ing shorts for my secret cosplay, and I fail at making pants. I'm ready to physically maim something.

YAY! Finished one up! At least my part of the costume.

IMO it looks terrible on me, it's not a good shirt or hat for my shape. But the girl who is wearing it looks god damn adorable.

Pidgey Gijinka though. I dyed the skirt (which is at home with her), made the shirt, made the hat feathers, and the wings. She still needs to paint the duck on the shirt, add the snaps on the wings, and paint the hat. And if I have time I'm going to make her a yellow messenger bag.

Now onto Togekiss.

its a little short to

but i can just where some shorts

tofutakeout · « **Reply #2385 on:** August 30, 2009, 09:25:07 pm »

I've gotten a lot done in the past few hours. I'm almost done with the main part of Meg's harness. After that I can hem the shirt, attach the harness belt things and then make the leg straps. The gloves are completely done(a bit big but I can manage). I've got the pants and the dye and I plan on doing that tomorrow. Hopefully I can finish everything else tonight. If not I'll only have a little to do tomorrow. ^_^

Then all I'll need to do is do some paint touch ups on one of my duel disks, get a white belt from my friend sandy(whiten it if need be), and then get my headband made for jasdero. Might also borrow some extra pink stuff for jigglypuff.

Pounded away on the sewing machine after Pidgey was done. Togekiss is almost done on my part. I just have to hem the bottom of the sleeves and the bottom of the dress thing. I'm actually kind of on a roll so I'm going to try my hardest to finish that tonight.
I've also decided Pidgey is not going to get a backpack.

I still have toilettries and stuff to pack, and I have to get my hands on the white ribbon for Christmas Roxas. Other than that I'm all done ^_^

No idea. But I wouldn't know.. I live relatively close, so I always either wore my costumes there, or since I usually only have 1 costume, it usually fits in a bag.

Sugarlat · « **Reply #2397 on:** August 31, 2009, 05:03:33 am »

I was actually thinking of packing a few minutes ago lol

12/20 done

LtCommanderRichie · « **Reply #2398 on:** August 31, 2009, 07:34:09 am »

Because I have an interesting ride situation involving going between houses, so I had to pack most of my stuff the weekend before last. Now I only have small stuff left to pack that fits in a couple shoe boxes and a backpack with my rave outfit in it. Which, by the way, is pretty awesome. In my opinion. Still trying to decide what wig to wear with it, though.

It's primarily red and black with some pink. Black wig with big ponytails, short purple wig, or long blond wig?

I vote for the long blonde, but that might get uncomfortable with the rave and close vicinities, so I'd also throw a side vote in there for the short purple.
