So I am planning on making pokeball accessories for my cosplay....Does anyone know if bake clay is better than air dry clay? Im planning on painting them after they set instead of buying colored clay....Im going to make pokeball earrings and a charm for my spike collor....

Thoughts?

Bake clay is Much better then air dry in my oppion...Air dry breaks and cracks easyly..and Bake clay is easyer to paint

nyahaha · « **Reply #604 on:** August 08, 2009, 10:48:49 pm »

I agree with that, I personally prefer the baking clay.

Due to an accident, my Butterfree wings have been ruined. ><'
I'm afraid I don't have the time to make another one from wire and spandex, does anyone know a good 'board' like material to make wings out of?

Deviant Spider · « **Reply #607 on:** August 09, 2009, 12:48:05 pm »

Thanks for the clay imput guys! I really have never worked with air dry clay so I was skeptical. My horns were made out of orange sculptey clay and I realized I didnt have orange paint so I used nail polish. Now they are shiny and acutally look realisitic. Im going to work on the pokeballs in the next few days

Xo_aria.....Im trying to find a good solution to my Charizard wings too....Im thinking of attempting a simple cardboard design, then molding it with paper mache to give it definition and durability. Then lastly covering it with fleece or flannel fabric with either hot glue or fabric bonding glue... Its going to take a while for the paper mache to set but hopefuly it will turn out

BlackjackGabbiani · « **Reply #608 on:** August 09, 2009, 02:21:21 pm »

Can anybody help me with a ride and stuff? I very much need to get this costume put together and I can't get to the stores by myself. Details are on the previous page.

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #609 on:** August 09, 2009, 02:30:24 pm »

I would but I lack a car and such. That and even if I did, college eats up all my free time.

Man of the Public · « **Reply #610 on:** August 09, 2009, 04:55:21 pm »

@Blackjack
Couldn't you use trimet? I mean that would be pretty easy.

tofutakeout · « **Reply #611 on:** August 09, 2009, 07:39:17 pm »

HAT IS DONE. :3

Sorry for overload of images but I couldn't choose a good one. :/ Because I'm fickle like that. I'm so happy I finally posted some progress pics though.

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #612 on:** August 09, 2009, 08:00:33 pm »

OH GOD TOFU ITS SO CUTE~

I would seriously pay you to make me one, no lie. I look terrible in hats though.
My only crit about it is the little circley dude on the head, it looks a little wobbly in some pictures. But I almost can't tell, so it's probably a-ok.
Seriously it's so cute that I am dropping f-bombs over here, if only the forums allowed cursing. Then I could fully express myself.

tofutakeout · « **Reply #613 on:** August 09, 2009, 08:09:09 pm »

....Thank you. o///o It looks...wobbly? sorry, I don't understand really. But whatever the issue I can try and fix it. ^_^ heh that many f-bombs? Thank you again.

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #614 on:** August 09, 2009, 08:24:43 pm »

I dunno, it's probably just me but in the last picture it looks like you went over it a couple times so the line isn't as crisp if that makes any sense? It may be my mind tricking me though.

tofutakeout · « **Reply #615 on:** August 09, 2009, 08:58:01 pm »

Ah I get what you mean. Well I was thinking of darkening anyways because I thought it was to light of a line, so I'll try to fix that. Thank you.

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #616 on:** August 09, 2009, 09:22:48 pm »

What exactly did you use to draw it on if I may ask?

tofutakeout · « **Reply #617 on:** August 09, 2009, 09:39:17 pm »

lol A ball point pen. I had nothing better and I didn't really feel like embroidering it because that would take too much time for something so simple.

But VERY time consuming. Additionally, I don't think a lot of this is near any place the bus goes.

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #619 on:** August 10, 2009, 09:08:04 pm »

Now starting on other peoples costumes~

My boyfriend ordered his shirt for Prof. Oak cosplay. We were going to get a wig for him too but we decided against it. His color is almost perfect and I don't think I'm going to get an almost buzzed look on one side of the wig without it being difficult. He's going to grow his hair out until con and I'm going to style it for him. Yay less work!

fleur_fraise · « **Reply #620 on:** August 11, 2009, 09:17:57 pm »

I finally finished Beautifly! I spent more than five hours sewing the wings today, by hand. But it's done!

And a terribly unflattering picture of the full outfit:

BlackjackGabbiani · « **Reply #621 on:** August 11, 2009, 10:44:16 pm »

That looks awesome!

Mei Long · « **Reply #622 on:** August 11, 2009, 11:37:40 pm »

Those wings are pretty! Great job! And I admire your hand sewing skills, I can't hand sew to save my life. XP

katayamadono · « **Reply #623 on:** August 12, 2009, 04:28:02 am »

I think I found perfect wings for my Venemoth. Just to get a hold of them and edit them enough... grargh.... And the bangs of my wig wont stay up!!!!! I'll figure something out.

DooFeRthePanda · « **Reply #624 on:** August 12, 2009, 08:03:15 pm »

workin on my mew(last day) 2mrrw, styling the wig and makin the tail....hmm ash is done except the gloves. yup. I MADE THE TAIL TONIGHT ITS AWESOME SAUCE!!!

Dubaby · « **Reply #625 on:** August 12, 2009, 09:37:44 pm »

I FINALLY got the leaf stuff that I needed to cover my ears and tail =]

Now I just have to start working on it this weekend and see if it'll actually look as cool as I imagine it will or not XD

DooFeRthePanda · « **Reply #626 on:** August 12, 2009, 09:44:02 pm »

i bet it will it will look lovely!

BlackjackGabbiani · « **Reply #627 on:** August 13, 2009, 03:33:30 am »

I got Hayley's tights, shorts, bandanna, hat, vest (mostly) and belt, and need a shirt and shoes. Anyone know where I can find cowgirl shoes (they're very small. I'm not sure if they're properly boots or not) in a 9 1/2 wide?

xcthulhux · « **Reply #628 on:** August 13, 2009, 08:41:30 am »

im cosplaying as ace trainer, but im doing it on the second day, not the first.

Man of the Public · « **Reply #629 on:** August 13, 2009, 04:28:57 pm »

I'm going to need some black paint and gorilla glue to finish these glasses.
Anyone have some they can spare?

BlackjackGabbiani · « **Reply #630 on:** August 13, 2009, 05:06:46 pm »

I have a question about the shoot. Why in the world are we going to WASHINGTON PARK for it? That's way out of the way, and we have both Pioneer Square and Waterfront Park in MUCH closer--and WALKING--distance.

Dubaby · « **Reply #631 on:** August 13, 2009, 05:16:46 pm »

Wait.... how far away is Washington Park??

I'm not familiar with Portland so I'm not sure about the distance and if it's too far away I might not be able to go to the shoot. = [

Because it's in the woods.

Also take the MAX to the zoo and you're there. Not that big of a deal.

DooFeRthePanda · « **Reply #633 on:** August 13, 2009, 06:13:58 pm »

workin on my mew gloves then ashs(all i need for ash is the gloves woo)

tofutakeout · « **Reply #634 on:** August 13, 2009, 06:21:55 pm »

edit:wrong topic. >_>

But hey my jigglypuff is swanking. I put on half of it to do a test and my step mom was just adoring it more then the rest of my family. wants me to make her something.

YOU GUYS I'M EXCITED FOR THIS. Go pokemon!

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #635 on:** August 13, 2009, 07:46:14 pm »

My bad, I meant Waterfront, but I am totally RETARDED.

I also get Friday and Saturday mixed up all the time, durrrrr. If it seems ridiculous it's probably me being confused.

Kawaii Punkd · « **Reply #636 on:** August 13, 2009, 07:54:28 pm »

Ok~ That clears up a lot, cause I was thinking if it was going to be at Washington Park I'd miss the meet-up, cause that's too far away for me to venture away from a convention I paid to be at all weekend.

Only thing I'll leave the con for is a family emergency and a trip to Uwajimaya, which won't even be happening at Kumori. Seeing as the only Uwajimaya is in Beaverton (Though I might consider it if it were a trip to Anzen).

That's ok Boogie, I get Tuesday and Thursday confused XD

Dubaby · « **Reply #637 on:** August 13, 2009, 09:54:01 pm »

haha... It's alright Nikki!!!!!

Waterfront it is then! =]

BlackjackGabbiani · « **Reply #638 on:** August 13, 2009, 10:18:13 pm »

Phew! I had a terrible flashback to when a friend of mine and I tried to go to the Rose Garden (the one with roses, not the one with basketball) and waited for the bus for over half an hour, and then imagined something like 30 of us standing around in costume on that hill, and--yeah.

Waterfront is way better. It's, what, three blocks away? Four?

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #639 on:** August 13, 2009, 10:27:17 pm »

Oh lord, that would be terrible.

And I calculated it awhile ago and it was four blocks I am pretty sure. We will have lots of space for the massive amount of Pokemon we seem to have.

Griff_the_dragoon · « **Reply #640 on:** August 13, 2009, 10:45:01 pm »

well 4 blocks is not that bad
it could be worse... now that i said that it will

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #641 on:** August 13, 2009, 10:52:12 pm »

4 blocks is not bad at all. Then again you are talking to someone who has to walk 2 and a half miles to get to and from school everyday.

Griff_the_dragoon · « **Reply #642 on:** August 13, 2009, 11:17:49 pm »

no not saying is hard at all infact it could be further for all i care i would still walk the distence

xcthulhux · « **Reply #643 on:** August 14, 2009, 09:31:29 am »

even though i won't be dressed up as a pokemon character the first day, i would love to go, just to see all of you poke-cosplayers in a group.
im a pokemon fanatic >.>

DancingTofu · « **Reply #644 on:** August 14, 2009, 05:58:30 pm »

Well, seeing as the hotel's on 6th, and the waterfront is one block past 1st...

It comes out to 7. But yes, it's close.

Dubaby · « **Reply #645 on:** August 15, 2009, 03:38:13 pm »

So I finally got the time to start working on my Leafeon tail again and it's really irritating because the only glue I could find in the house turned out to be kind of a pain in the butt to use....

So I got a couple leaves onto my tail before giving up, my really good glue is at my moms work so I'll be able to get it tomorrow when she gets back in town. Then I'll REALLY be able to finish this cosplay up once and for all!!!

Here's a pic that shows kinda what the leaf stuff will look like on the tail... as you can see I really only worked for like 2 minutes on it before quitting... XD

SageBell · « **Reply #646 on:** August 15, 2009, 03:54:47 pm »

under people there needs to be
Quinci - Candice

DemonSpawn · « **Reply #647 on:** August 15, 2009, 03:57:35 pm »

M'kay so not that this matters to like, anyone XD, but Teddiursa was my secret cosplay (I had two but dropped the other one for some personal reasons, it's finished though, hopefully I'll wear it next year.) anyway, Teddiursa is either done or almost done (I have to check with the friend helping me with my dress, she's awesome). I don't get the actual hat I commissioned until I pick it up on the first day of K-con but I made a moon and ears to use till I get it.

Chaotic.Fox · « **Reply #648 on:** August 15, 2009, 06:18:45 pm »

If need be, I happen to have the stuff to cosplay Prof.Elm....

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #649 on:** August 15, 2009, 09:05:21 pm »

If you do it you can chill with Professor Oak then, haha.
