~~Almost done with Soul's wig. Just a few more spikes to cut and spray, then onto the pants!~~

Finished the wig, pants, and headband. I used up almost all of my hairspray on this wig. I hope I don't need to buy more for Red XIII... here is a picture...

Sorry bout the really bad quality...I used my phone.
I still need to do buttons, and paint the shoes. Then I'm done...

SOUL! WE ARE GOING TO BE ONE EPIC TEAM.

Holy frack, your Soul is awesome.

Once I actually get up I'll eat and then start patterning out the design on Maria's skirt with the stencil I made last night. GOOD LORD THIS SKIRT. It weighs far more than I feel it should, but that's okay. At least I actually have it mostly done, eh?

nyahaha · « **Reply #1953 on:** August 23, 2009, 10:06:14 am »

Thank you

Im doing the buttons now. I think I forgot to say that I needed to do those

BAM! Just gotta make a silly wizard hat and get silly striped pants and I shall be Girly Black Mage-tastic.

tofutakeout · « **Reply #1955 on:** August 23, 2009, 10:22:28 am »

ha ha, silly wizard. XD

well I've now also taken on the job of making an Ike plushie for my friends Kyle costume. ^_^ But I can do it. I just can't stop sewing for 24 hours straight. X_X And I need to run and get Amy's jacket from sage soon.

The Sphinxyness · « **Reply #1956 on:** August 23, 2009, 12:15:17 pm »

Gah, why did my sewing machine have to be broke now.. >.< I still have to make Shiki's hoodie, Shiki's skirt, Mr. Mew, her necklace, and buy myself a pair of brown boots.. xD Anyone know how to put a new needle back in the sewing machine when the little metal hook thingy that helps hold the thread fell out of where it was originally from? >_<

Kawaii Punkd · « **Reply #1957 on:** August 23, 2009, 12:44:50 pm »

Professional sewing repair places can do something with it.

I think they have to hold it for a week to do all the repairs on it, at least that's how it was for mine when I went and got it fixed a few years ago.

If you want, see if you can take it apart and just see what's up, sometimes that helps for me when I get caught up with my machine. Mine is super easy to take apart though.

LtCommanderRichie · « **Reply #1958 on:** August 23, 2009, 12:54:23 pm »

I HAVE FINISHED THE SKIRT OF EVIL AND DOOM. HOWLEECRAP. Now I just have to fix the eye holes of my mask and get the bow on my shoulder and I'm finished.

Teehee, and I have the perfect shirt to go with my Decepticon PJ pants for my PJ Demyx. I just have to order it.

veraca · « **Reply #1959 on:** August 23, 2009, 01:29:35 pm »

*stretch* *yawns* Waiting for sealing to dry on the keyblade still... I might be able to start sanding the globs though.. I left it on the cat crate inside next to the window, so it got sun as it came up this morning while I slept XD; *has to keep taking it in at night*

From what I know, I'm going as:
Christmas Roxas (find that dang shirt)
Lolita Allen (T-T I want my plush Tim..)
Soul (red room)

That's all for sure... Depending on if we get the car or not for the day the masq is completely decides if I have a 4th costume. I'm probably just gonna go on Friday as Daisuke cause his outfit's REALLY simple.

oO; *looking around hearing some odd crying/snoring sound*

@ Nyahahaha: I saw your soooul~ I love it~ ^_^ How'd you get the pin done out of curiousity

soundninja12 · « **Reply #1960 on:** August 23, 2009, 02:08:50 pm »

I'm glad to have 2 cosplays under my belt now

That makes me feel like I might actually finish.

I think I'm going to work on Lucas today. Maybe sew the red stripes on his shirt even. I hope I have some red fabric, that would make this process much easier.
I'm getting my hair cut next thursday, so I can practice putting it in the Damned fo-hawk.
Ok. Wish me luck.
I'm off to check my fabric box for red fabric.

@ Nyahahaha: I saw your soooul~ I love it~ ^_^ How'd you get the pin done out of curiousity

Thank you! Which pin? xD the blue SOUL one is painted on foam that is hot glued, and the EAT one is from that website you showed me.

veraca · « **Reply #1962 on:** August 23, 2009, 04:07:08 pm »

@ Nyahaha: Foam? Oh I should've tried foam >> All I had for my SOUL pin was pizza cardboard XD; I'm glad you got your EAT pin in time ^_^ It looks awsome~ And so does your wig. I wish my wig could look that awsome, but it says "no fat locks!" >>;

Well the sealant dried with globs that were white... So I took liquid black acrylic and touched it up, and touched up the black & white on the face a bit.... And now it's got a coat of sealant on it again. No more after this. It's done. I curse it to break/burn/char. It's done.

someone on deviantart or something like that said they used foam. And thankyou! aww, what kind of wig do you have? I almost didn't get one in time. I found a cheaper wig from some sports/costume ebay store xD It's not the best quality, but it formed quite nicely.

I think your keyblade is cool! Jack is so cute! : D I can't tell that there were ever blobs there.

DooFeRthePanda · « **Reply #1965 on:** August 23, 2009, 04:23:40 pm »

nyahaha · « **Reply #1966 on:** August 23, 2009, 04:25:39 pm »

good job on the wig! It looks great!

veraca · « **Reply #1967 on:** August 23, 2009, 04:53:05 pm »

@Nyahaha: I bought a wig from eBay back in Feb. It was this puffy mess where it was all one huge fluffy tangled spike x_x; It was horrible. I'm ashamed I had to wear it to Sakura cause I didn't have time to style it. It looks SOOOO much better now though ^_^

Argh that ..white dot at the top is a glob! *grumbles* I'll put a dab of paint on that in a sec >>; Geeze.... I can't escape them!

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #1971 on:** August 23, 2009, 05:39:59 pm »

Lots of art homework. I have to do 4 pages of drawings of artifacts, 3 pages of on site drawing, design a steam punk vehicle and do a final rendering of it, and write a short script and storyboard it out D:

Oh and animate a walk cycle OH GOD I MUST WORK NOW

My Navi cosplay is about 30% done. I'm going to JoAnns sometime this week to pick out fabric and whatnot.
My Nidorina cosplay, however...iunno what I'm doing with that.

tofutakeout · « **Reply #1974 on:** August 23, 2009, 06:13:12 pm »

HA HA so I just got the cutout for the Ike plush from my friend today and I started in while family was visiting. Right now it is perfect weather to work outside. ^_^

Is that what you're studying?
If so, I'm a very happy child. Most of my best friends want to study psychology.

I'm trying so hard not to do that this year since I have so much more to do. I'm about 70% from not procrastinating but I can feel it slowly dropping.

pencil · « **Reply #1981 on:** August 23, 2009, 06:50:27 pm »

I'm doing opposite procrastinating. I'm putting off making a phone call to work on costumes 8D
Anyway, got the Cosmo Dragoon about 90% done. I left out some details, but I'm not a prop maker so I had no idea how to do them XD

veraca · « **Reply #1982 on:** August 23, 2009, 06:53:17 pm »

oO; I've been studying stuff similar to psychology- but more so along the lines of "character development" for stories and stuff. Got to read all sorts of morals and things last year, and this year I'm taking more Greek things- like we're starting off reading The Iliad. Which I should really be reading instead of (lots other stuff).... XD;

Anyhow, touching up the keyblade AGAIN. Dang globs.

I also re did my styrofoam Timcampi cause I doubt my friend can send me the plushie one in time.
I cut off the wood tail that was there before, inserted lots of hot glue and pushed in the .... whatever they're called ... Pipecleaners? They aren't the awsome darker gold ones I had for the wings. Not sure where that pack went but oh well... then I made them all circly ish.

Very cool, pencil =3

Everyone is going to look so extreme this year. Oh god, I can't wait.

LtCommanderRichie · « **Reply #1984 on:** August 23, 2009, 07:01:06 pm »

Ladies and gentlemen, I am win.

That bottom hoop skirt looks ARGH HORRIBLE to me, though all the tulle was kinda smushed. It'll probably look better when I floof it out for the actual con.

And I spent time I could have been using to work on Maria's mask figuring out the perfect combination of colors to make my own Sheryl wig. Hmmm, if I ordered both component wigs now, went to JoAnns tomorrow and sewed LOLFASTHURRDURR, I could probably make an entire one of her outfits by con-time.

Bad idea *slaps self*

veraca · « **Reply #1985 on:** August 23, 2009, 07:07:51 pm »

That is so full of win, Lt O.O

*slap* No! Don't you have enough to be doing for this con? Just get it all done and siiiigh and sit back and relax some before the event of putting them on for the con xD

soundninja12 · « **Reply #1986 on:** August 23, 2009, 07:08:31 pm »

Unless the ceiling is less than 8 feet, I ought to be fine. And there's no way that the ceiling is less than 8 feet. Even then I can just duck.
