Got more repairs on my sitar done, I'm just waiting for paint to dry at the moment so I can go finish my paint job. Also made the pendant for the necklace of my secret costume and finished the shirt, though it still fits a little funny. It's fine otherwise, though. Gonna need a strapless bra to go under it. Should probably go to Wal-Mart next week for the rest of my costume's jewelry and sunglasses and such. If I can't find my shorts I'll get a pair too.

Look at me, posting in incomplete short sentences stating exactly what I've done. Why don't I just go find an overcoat now and get an inkblot mask to go with it? Yeesh.

I'm trucking along with everything today. Worked on meg, She's pretty close to done now, soon all I'll need is the pants. ^_^

I'm getting together with my Debbito soon so she can make Jasdero's headband and I can cut/trim her hair(if need be).

I'm thinking of making/getting a pink skirt for jigglypuff just for added pink.

Still need to get the jacket from Sage to work on for her. And then all I need is a green button up shirt. :/

@Elizabeth
You look so cute! You make a really good haruhi. :3

Ok, I have ALL of my friend's Sailor Mars done except one thing.... The hip roll thingy. I can't figure out how to make it so it will attach to the leotard. It's gotta stretch so that you can put the outfit on, etc. HELP PLEASE!?

make it so it can attack via snaps or velcro

lychee-twist · « **Reply #2204 on:** August 27, 2009, 07:36:40 pm »

If you did that it might tug and look weird at the spots where it's not snapped together. What about making it with a stiffer inside so it's more like a belt so it keeps its shape? I dunno really. Just throwing out ideas.

veraca · « **Reply #2205 on:** August 27, 2009, 09:11:08 pm »

*scribbles like mad on cosplay list*

I'm gonna do a lolita version of Aqua on day 0. +_+ I will. My friend's lending me some pieces and I can mix and match and it'll look pretty good. Don't know if people'll get that I'm from KH but meh it's day 0 so who cares?!

Winfred · « **Reply #2206 on:** August 27, 2009, 09:11:26 pm »

AH HA HAAA I finished my silly wizard hat! Now I just need to add some minor details to the whole thing and I have one vaguely girly black mage get-up.

LtCommanderRichie · « **Reply #2207 on:** August 27, 2009, 09:37:32 pm »

I just put on my bustier and mask for Maria (I kinda have to do both or else the butterfly will be getting everywhere since they're connected) and I have the repairs to my mask and the placement for my bow all figured out. I'm so happy this is all coming together, seriously! I just glued down my bow, and once that's grabbed I'll start fiddling with making it stay in one place. I just hope I don't get tangled up in the loose train again D: both of the dangly flowy bottom bits of this darn thing are about seven and a half feet long. So they'll just barely be brushing the ground. if they're too long I'll just have someone nip them a few inches.

D: someone a few houses down is having a drumming jam session. As cool as it is, it's loud and I can't concentrate. STILL! Watching Tremors made me wanna do a cosplay from that. GAH DAGNABBIT the drumming did it again.

You know, a pleather bustier is extremely warm to wear. Like, extremely. And I can't master the last verse and a half of Diamond Crevasse. I can sing along to the rest, but not that bit. Noooooooo.

Hi, I'm rambling again.

I need to finish my keyblade, make kairi's bag, figure out what in the world to do with my hair. xD For the keyblade I really only need make the flowers, leaves and shell. steal my paint back from my boyfriend (or let him paint them xD) and give the end back to him to finish assembling it. D: I have tomorrow and saturday to do that... (Sunday is spent watching Fiddler on the Roof!)

Bag I haven't even started yet T_T I need it to be useable so I don't have to carry a purse as well xD

My hair is the BIGGEST problem. It comes down to my waist... which is perfect for my Yuri Sakazaki cosplay. She's my signature cosplay (as of last year) because of my hair... but Kairi has short hair D: I don't mind dying my hair burgandy for Kairi it's just... cutting it. >_< I think I might need to get a wig this weekend.

PaperRoxas · « **Reply #2209 on:** August 27, 2009, 10:16:02 pm »

I hope you can get all that done

I need to have dad finish cutting out the design for the staff Yuna has, he needs to cut the rod he bought down, make a wedge/hole that the design can slip down into, I need to sand all the edges, prime it, paint it, and bam >D

veraca · « **Reply #2210 on:** August 27, 2009, 10:18:31 pm »

Sounds like it almost all 100% done ^_^

I'm impressed people are trying to get stuff done with a week left!

CLAP_attack · « **Reply #2211 on:** August 27, 2009, 10:19:37 pm »

All I have to do is Havoc's wig. Hopefully before I leave to Florence for a few days Dx

LtCommanderRichie · « **Reply #2212 on:** August 27, 2009, 10:19:51 pm »

Trying? TRYING?

There is no try. There is only do, or do not. I am doing things, and they will be DONE by the con.

So there.

I like your way of thinking.

NekoAkiko · « **Reply #2215 on:** August 27, 2009, 10:26:50 pm »

I hope to get it all done as well... D: If I don't have the keyblade finished fine. I'll go buy more felt and just make a bigger papou fruit to carry around with me. x3; I can sew that last minute xD Or I'll just carry around my tiny one. The bag will be finished. @_@;; I forgot about the belts.. uh-oh xD DARN YOU KAIRI!

I stress and do things at the last minute. :\ I hope everything turns out okay... I'm a perfectionist...

H-Holy slaggin'- GUYS.

HOLY CARP.

MARIA IS DONE. Like, 100%. I can't think of a single thing I'm missing out of that design. In fact, I'm done.

Done.

That's a nice word.

So much soul eater.....X_X -is going to die from fangasms-

So I hope to finish All of Meg's shirt today. I'm going to try to construct the harness thing she wears at my friends house. Or at least figure out how exactly I'll make it. I was thinking mostly just cardboard and some thick black fabric/vinyl or something.

It's not as satisfying after the first day.
Then all that time you spent working on everything is open, and you just don't know what to do with yourself.
*that was me... all this week*

chelseahavoc · « **Reply #2229 on:** August 28, 2009, 10:50:04 am »

yeah being done for a long time makes you axious and want to sew something else xD

DooFeRthePanda · « **Reply #2230 on:** August 28, 2009, 10:51:53 am »

i've been sewing for the past few days and omg it hurst my back having to hunch over most the time T____T

LtCommanderRichie · « **Reply #2231 on:** August 28, 2009, 10:54:01 am »

My sewing boredom resulted in my secret cosplay :'D but that's coming out great, so no harm no foul.

The worst critic that could ever judge you is yourself... What you think sucks could actually be a really good creation, so just give it a try... could you take a picture of it so that we could see?

tofutakeout · « **Reply #2236 on:** August 28, 2009, 12:18:45 pm »

Well this day has officially gone to hell. All I'll need is blinding heat and that'll make it loads better. >_<

-starts sewing-

oslapedo · « **Reply #2237 on:** August 28, 2009, 12:19:59 pm »

Is it really hot up there? Because it's way cold in Roseburg right now, weird~

I need to find my lost cosplay T_T

Chaotic.Fox · « **Reply #2238 on:** August 28, 2009, 12:21:23 pm »

Its not that bad.... Course I havn't really left the house except for a few minutes...

tofutakeout · « **Reply #2239 on:** August 28, 2009, 12:23:44 pm »

its getting there. The weather man said it would rain then he said it would be warm. It was 80 but it's slowly sinking into the 70's. I'm so confused. I just want to stay hunkered down in my room even though this is like the warmest room in the house. X_X But I need to work on cosplay.

DooFeRthePanda · « **Reply #2240 on:** August 28, 2009, 12:45:08 pm »

here is my jacket so far. just need the buttons for the front and then the sleeves. gaaah the collar is all funky on the corners but i think i can work it...oh well its my first so i guess its pretty good(no pattern either ^___^)

it doesn't look that bad, and once you get the sleeves on, it should look better anyway... But don't sell yourself to short, it is much better than what I could ever do.

I ran out of my light blue spraypaint, but I'm probably going to home depot around 2:30 unless my mum can find some while she's coming back from wherever she went.

Yeah, if that made sense. I'm rambling again.

Got up on my stilts, by the way, and started figuring out my moves for my walk-on. I'm like a giraffe trying to tapdance when twisting around on those things.

Also, I still need music D:

I understand how hard it is to create stuff, but you did really well, you just need the sleeves and some buttons, and it will look a lot like the actual top.
