/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

Painted on the star and sewed on the first round of lace. Now all that's left is to wait for more lace to come in the mail so I can sew that on too. Only one glove for the photo so I could take the picture. It has since been modified with conductive thread.
I can't believe I'm this close to being ready for Katsucon this early. It's kind of a nice feeling.

>>6535564
Who are you going as?

Lord's Blade Ciaran gloves are (halfway) done! This is the first time I've tried to make armor, and I'm pretty proud of the results.
Pardon the picture, I don't have a non-webcam camera available.

>>6535564
Jesus christ you're tall

Either that or it's the heels

>>6535564
Please use different lace, the lace you used is so cheap and tacky looking. Get some nice cotton lace and I guarantee you'll look infinitely better!

>>6535564
what type of diet do you follow? what's your exercise routine?

>>6535564
You would be the perfect Bayonetta!

After an painting tutorial (which is still in progress) the first bracers is done and god, I just cannot wait to see everything painted. Love the paint job of my husband SO much!

>>6535645
Also started with the last parts for my Protoss Wizard. Leg armor should be also done soon.

Made the base of my Cubone skull. Now it's time to papier mache

>>6535782
How did you made it?

Not much in this thread so far, but it's all looking fantastic. Keep it up guys!

>>6535788
Made a wire frame, then covered it in scotch tape.

>>6535782
you gonna slut it up or what?

>>6535855
Implying there's any other way to cosplay pokemon when female.

>>6535576
American Maid from The Tick (animated)

>>6535588
It's the heels and my mirror's angled. I'm only 5'4"

>>6535594
It is cotton lace. I can see what you mean, though- it photographs pretty poorly (I need a better quality camera than just my phone).

>>6535600
I don't really have one? I'm actually trying to gain back to a healthy weight right now as I lost quite a bit last year due to illness.

polite sage because no real contribution to the thread.

that bow is interfaced so much I'm surprised it's staying at all.

Not really progress, but after fretting about ordering purple fabric for my homura skirt, and ordering some swatches, I found that I had the fucking perfect fabric sitting in the bottom of my fabric bin.
Seriously so old it is from rag shop, but still perfect.
I wonder what I originally bought it for.

>>6535896

Wow! I love the front, how did you do the pattern?

>>6535943
heat 'n bond. I don't know what I'd do without it.

Newspaper template making of Tiger and Bunny's chest armor for friends.

Off to a good start, hopefully I can do more templates of the other parts later on.

>>6535960
>>6535896
How did you get such a perfect design with the heat and bond? (Especially the circle). Did you cut it out if a large piece?

>>6536246
Wow that's going to look so shitty.

>>6536487

Haha I'll agree.

Hopefully it'll look a tiny bit nicer after transferring the pattern onto better paper. ;)

>>6535583
Please let me make love to you as Artorias. It's fanon, right?!

What are those made of? I actually do plan on doing Arty, but I'm not sure what route I'm talking with my armor yet. Other cosplays for group functions in the pipe before him, unfortunately.

>>6537096
Waaa! If you live on the west coast we will have to eventually do a photoshoot!
I'm just making mine out of craft foam since it's the cheapest. Looks a bit iffy on close inspection, but it looks nice from a distance. I think Arty will be the hardest though because of dat chainmail... dunno how to replicate that without it being heavy as fvck

First leg is done, time for the second!

>>6537405
I love your progress pictures and can't wait to see it all done. Such nice armor.

>>6537409
Awww, thank you! I love this project so much, just cannot wait to finish it!

>>6537405
What are you using?

>>6537443
Worbla. As always. Like she has used for the rest of the costume. And with almost all her new projects.

>>6537443
Worbla, Worbla, everywhere.

>>6537281
Yeah, sadly no, Indiana here. Drop me an email anyway, though; DaSo cosplayers are always worth keeping in touch with. Never can tell when you might end up on the other side of the country for some reason.

It looks good, I like the edging. I may have to start Arty alongside my other projects instead of waiting...

>>6537405
Cool armor design. Very nicely made and intricate.

If I was to criticize though I'd say it seems a little bit too 2-dimensional. Almost looks like it's some kind of papercraft. Protoss armor is usually pretty bulky and ironman-like but this seems kinda flat.

>>6537490
Thanks a lot! But yeah, I know. I tried to make it bulky, but failed since I just don't have the money and the right materials to build it like I wish. So I decided for a flat, more Wizard like design and hope, that people will see the Protoss by choosing a golden color and some glowing gemstones.

>>6537493
How do you not have sponsors yet?

>>6537506
Should I have some? No idea. At least I get my Worbla for free, that's a great help already.

>>6536476
yeah, I heat 'n bonded a piece of the yellow fabric the same size as the black, then drew on the design and cut it all out as one.

>>6537506
Cosplay isn't nascar. Only a few silly companies actually want to "sponsor" a cosplayer and it's usually for some kind of dumb, one-time promotion.

Cosplay is a hobby. Not a profession.

>>6537726
>>6537506
I think if he stuck to one series, like how PikmanLink did mostly Nintendo cosplays, then he'd get sponsored.

And don't you shitfucks start PL drama. She was just an example, stick to the thread's topic.

>>6537751
She. Kamui is a she.

>>6537751
See >>6537726

Companies are not handing out sponsorships to cosplayers based on how good or bad they are like it's some sort of profession. Who is going to give her a sponsorship? Blizzard? Why the fuck would they even care about cosplayers?

If you want to get sponsored by somebody, play in the NFL.

Shirt for gunzerker printed. Now to weather it.

friend just got done casting bullets for me for Gunzerker.

>>6537818
Athletes aren't the only ones who have sponsors. Chicks in pageants do too, and there's nothing sporty about that.
Anyone that can gain publicity could have a sponsor.

Cosplayers are less likely because they don't do public spotlight shit as often. Companies would rather hire models.

I'm just saying it's not unheard of, just really really rare. If Kamui did, say, only Cartoon Network cosplays, CN might sponsor her.

>>6537897
I'm pretty sure that Precious is literally the only cosplayer in the history of cosplay that has had their cosplays "sponsored" by anyone.

>>6537921
Smaller companies use cosplay as a grass roots campaign, Nintendo uses PikminLink because she's good and they don't pay her to make her costumes at all, Blizz is run by a bunch of rich nerds who know they already have their fanbase tapped and can afford a hundred times better than what Kamui produces.

>>6537921
she's not the only one

>>6538073
>they don't pay her to make her costumes at all
Then it's not a sponsorship.

>>6538073
>PikminLink
>Good

>>6538117
At what point did I call it a sponsorship, dumbass?

working on Gwendolyn! here is the front part. Ruffles are fun

>>6538322
Why is the center fabric so dark? it should be sky blue...

>>6537405
And my second leg is also done! Time for some rest!

>>6538336

>>6538336
>>6538354
yeah I'm going of the concept art and it's bad lighting so looks darker than it is

Got a bit of progress done on Mari. Right now I'm focusing on her interface headband. They need a lot more sanding, and possibly a redo.

>>6538361
the darker blue is just from shadow, its supposed to be a baby sky blue, any of the frontal pictures with even lighting and ingame shows this...usually the concept does too, thats a poor scan

>>6538377
oh that still looks purple to me. I personally like the darker purple compared to the lighter clolors. Just my preference. But thank you any ways

>>6538377
I think the Odin Sphere official art is really inconsistent and it's up for interpretation. It changes from figure to figure as well.

>>6538391
Purple is Griselda's colour. Gwendolyn is blue.

>>6538414
Wasn't her Sister's costume more Pink?

>>6538322
>>6538438

I've always seen her colour as a periwinkle which is somewhere in between purple and blue.

Your fabric does look a little dark anon but I doubt many people will notice or care.

so borrowed my friends petticoat which is super princess long. I was planning on getting a smaller one and having a good amount of volume to get it more like Gwendolyn. This is super rough and needs a ton of cleaning up but its not too bad so far.

>>6538073
Dude...have you SEEN some of their "official" costumes they use on booth babes and stuff?

Spoiler they're total shit compared to Kamui's work.

I don't think it would be that much of a stretch for them to "sponsor" a very good cosplayer, since their official TCG company, Cryptozoic, does so.

>>6535862
There are actually two choices:
>Cutesy
>Slutty

Asians, flat chested girls, and modet girls choose cute, while the rest choose slutty.

Loving all of this beautiful progress! cant wait to see every ones finished product~
All I rally have fully done right now with Cure Blossom aree her boots, everything is laying in a messy pile :x

iron man MK IV

my fried is doing Warmachine

>>6538965
holy fucking cute! Those look great!

>>6538965
Cure Blossom!!!! Love it!

>>6538965
>Cure Blossom
Let me touch your face I love you

>>6538985
Aren't you the one from /po/?

>>6538985
I have seen pep projects from start to finish before, and I still can't figure out how it works. They almost always look so amazing.

>>6538867
>Spoiler they're total shit compared to Kamui's work.

LOL NO

>>6538998

nope this is the first i'm posting of this project

>>6539006
it's done by getting a gallon of rubber cement stuck to your hand lol

also i'm thinking of doing Rescue, pepper pots suit, but I don't know if i can swap in parts form this suit. i don't really want to make 2 suits if all i need to do is make a boob plate

but i may make a samus aran next

>>6538073
PL does get paid by Nintendo to wear and make costumes. The amount she gets is insane.

>>6538867
What? That demon hunter kicks her ass around the world and back.

>>6539007
she didn't make that. she's just modelling it.

>>6539153
No shit Sherlock, the argument was that Blizz doesn't need some podunk back woods piece of shit cosplayer to be their booth babes when they can hire pros to make amazing stuff - of course it all falls apart when you realize that Firefall ISN'T Blizzard.

>>6538867
>>6539146
http://joethemultiboxer.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/DSC01831-smaller.jpg

This is the official Demon Hunter, you might not agree that this is better than Kamui's work but i've seen both in person so let me tell you that this holds up to scrutiny and Kamui does not.

>>6539169

i noticed that lol i wasn't sure enough to say something though

>>6538370
Well, I'm getting there. I might have been done with my painting if it wasn't for my shakey hands. I hope I get it done tonight so I can seal it.

Bought fabric for Tekken 6 Alisa today. Had to go to three different stores to find something I thought would be acceptable quality. Got a lovely $25 per metre matte satin for all the purple dress pieces and some knit for the shorts. Couldn't find anything else decent enough/in the right color.

>>6538986
>>6538989
Thank you so much <3 I just finished taping the petals on the side down so they dont move and it looks better. I just wish the paint on the toes didnt look so bad

>>6538992
I would love that <3


Currently working on my bows for Rabi en rose, and I rain outta ribbon and all I need is a little piece, just 3 more inches

>>6538867
Cryptozoic doesn't sponsor us. We're employees, paid creating one costume for them in a year and work in it at their event. It's a pretty nice part time job, but not a sponsorship.
However a real sponsorship would be pretty nice. I often have problems because I'm not able to affort materials. At the end, I create my costume with a cheaper solution, but I would just love to try something new. Molding and castiing stuff, sculpting and so on. However I guess, I just live in a wrong country for a sponsership or even for a job which was something to do with costume creation.

Started today, finished the first half of my ANBU
vest.

Ripped out my original and replace it. I think it looks better. I've ran out of craft foam or I would have gotten to the top part as well...

I still need to make the other side. Paint and attach the welfts. Kinda like how you would make the Jessie from Pokemon wig.

>>6539635
Not sure why my image flipped on me

old picture, but i'm 95% done with the jacket (i still need to do the design on the back and i'll be set)
i busted up those gloves since they were cheap-o halloween store gloves so i'll need to get new ones and then i can move on to finding knee-high red converse in my size orz
also new goggles, those were just temporary

>>6538985
You sir are awesome. However please note your elbow cop is on updside down, the tabs are supposed to go the other way.

Also don't know if you need support struts or not, I know the guy came out with a pack later on with them in it,

Completely forgot to take pictures last night, was up till three or so in hte morning working on shit. However pic is the reason why I Didn't take pics.

Also, spiderman is now nearly done, been three months and the stores finally got the color of puff paint I needed, So I bought all of it. I wont be needing to worry about touch ups ever again. Will also be making the lenses and gluing in the shoes tonight. As well as finishing the MK III shin peice.

>>6539859
Ohh, I lied, Do have progress of the ankle flaps and Knee cop, main shin body has like a piece or two left, so didn't take a pic.

>>6539579
>flies all over the world every other day
>complains she can't afford costumes

Started gluing down gemstones! 30 down, a lot more than 30 to go

>>6540019
Do you really think I pay even only one of these trips by myself?

Christ I am tired of progress threads turning into Kamui dick sucking

>>6538965
Cure Blossom! Yesss! It looks amazing so far! Are you cosplaying with a group? (I need more Heartcatch cosplayers in my life)

>>6540262
I'm tired of progress threads turning into a bitchfest about everything except fucking progress. Don't you idiots have some cosplay to do?

Just a bit more sanding then it's off to the painting room for my Wizard helmet. I would have more progress but running my own cosplays concurrently with commissions that need to be done is taking up too much of my schedule.

>>6540274
Also progress on an Arkham City Harley Quinn commission, I guess it counts for progress? I hate making corsets but I have to admit, this doesn't look half bad.

>>6540282
It needs boning in roder to be a corset. girl look at that rippling side. not bad looking but you need to sturdy it up.

>>6540296
>girl
I'm a dude lol. And like I said, I really hate making these things. And I didn't really get paid enough to bother with boning. I still need to add the straps and the useless side belts that'll cinch it closer to her waist, and then make the two-toned tights (I refuse to cheat and buy the premade hot topic crap). Question though, anyone ever made tights? I need to know by how much I need to reduce the measurements so that it'll be snug without cutting off circulation.

>>6540305
If you can't make something properly you shouldn't be taking commissions. A corset isn't a corset without boning, and the rippling issue won't be fixed unless there is some kind of support from underneath. A belt may cinch it in but it will still ripple and rumple between it.

Unless the person knows they're getting a halfassed product, you should do your best and not sell yourself short next time.

You also can't make seamless tights without special machinery. Just buy a pair of fishnets, there's no point to making them. Unless you mean the boots, which should be made like boots... not tights.

>>6540305
My bad, I thought it was for Arkham Asylum.

Make them like tight leather pants, which hers are. They're not really tights and have seams.

>>6540266
There is another cosplayer who going to cosplay with me as cure Marine~ I am toooooooo excited to cosplay with her. Do you live in the east coast? I would love to do any precure with anyone c:

>>6540318
>>6540319
Sorry, didn't make it clear, but also that dress form is smaller than she is and has rather odd proportions, hence the rippling. I can probably simulate the boning with steel wire, but at this point I'm not gonna invest into it any more than I've already spent, since that pleather didn't come cheap. And not sure if you're the same anon, but yeah, I actually am using spandex with a leather texture to it, I just wanted to be sure that taking off at least an inch off the measurements would be the way to go.

>>6540344
Just do a fitting. You can also buy plastic rigilene boning cheap as dirt from most sewing stores.

>>6540344
Some people have success with stacking up a couple of zip ties per a rib when in a pinch, that might work

I got bored and decided I needed another costume for the con this weekend.

And yeah, I know its missing a glove - had to take it off to take the pictures.

Now to go find some shoes I can alter!

>>6540182
Well excuse me princess, I guess we can't all be fancy pants Kamui getting free flights around the globe.

>>6540344
The really big zip ties are great in a pinch - even though you're not getting paid much, you still want it to be something you want your name attached to, right? Even a little extra effort will make a fair bit of a difference to your client's satisfaction and the ability of your work to pull in more work. Plumber's coil works well too - and honestly, even shitty plastic boning doubled up would do the job.

My worbla finally came in the mail... 4 hours later I made the bases for both hip pads of my barbarian. Trying very hard not to look like I've just copied everything off Kamui... Shouldn't look too similar when I'm done though since the two costumes will be a lot different in proportion, painting style and decoration. Having a hard time smoothing the "joins" in the borders though.

>>6540282
Your stitching is absolutely wonderful... but do you have any boning in there, or is it just for show and not actually supporting anything?

>>6540274

Maybe it's just the angle but it looks a bit squashed to me?

>>6540388

Is that Mariah from JoJo?

>>6540371
>>6540381
>>6540442
Sweet, thanks for the advice, I totally forgot I had these ridiculously long zip ties around here. Yeah, I guess it's just me being impatient cause I still have 6 other outfits/commissions that have to be finished by Katsucon/February.

>>6540503
hahah I can see that now. Nah, it's not squashed, though I think part of why it looks that way is cause of the angle and that it's only the front half of the helmet. It's not an oversized one so it'll only fit my head and smaller sizes. I wanted to make sure it was snug to my head so I can look around freely in it. Gotta say though, you'd think the side of the helmet with the least detail would be easier. NOPE. I'm still sanding the back to make sure it's smooth...

>>6540329
Yup! I'm an East Coaster. I'm constantly looking for Precure cosplay buddies. But alas, none yet.

>>6540734
Yes :3

Thus starts my Year of Jojo Costumes.

>>6540789
You got one here! I would love to! I mean I plan on cosplaying from heartcatch again, and maybe even suite, smile and fresh

So here is the shin built. little bastard is more annoying than it looks. Hopefully tomorrow it isn't raining at this time of night so I can start resining.

Shoes are getting glued to my spiderman costume, and I'm about to tackle the eye lenses and see what I can do with the few odd missing puff painted lines tonight.

>>6540785

ah k

Haha...yea sanding is a looooooooonnnng process. Been working on a helmet myself but it's just taking a while. That and the weather doesn't want to play nice. The issue with living in a place where the main forecast is RAIN and more of it! -_-

I ordered the binder and ears for my cosplay. Pic not related.

>>6541194
>main forecast is rain
lol so you either live in Seattle or London.

>>6541363
SoCal has been having this issue for the past few weekends. Fuck if I'm going to try to work with expanding foam when it's rain every weekend for the past month.

I'm not sure how I feel about this costume, ugh. I just finished the wig but haven't made any of the costume. It's for Ohayocon, so I have like ten days or so? Either way I feel a little silly. I'm so hot/cold on this. Sometimes I feel way too old to be a little kid like Ikki, and I want to cosplay something more mature, but then I go to a restaurant and they ask me if I need a kid's menu.

I mean a yellow jumpsuit isn't that flattering.

To make it harder, my kid brother is cosplaying Meelo. I've almost finished his costume. But it's weird. I can't really get into the 'groove' you know- where you just feel like you know what you're doing and the costume goes together well. It always just feels off while I'm working on it. And I don't have time to sit back and think about it. Ugh.

Didn't cut the bangs because I want to reuse the wig and aren't sure on the costume yet. Blah.

made this in about 3-4 days
still have a few pieces that are still WIP like horns and arm armor
my fingers hurt...

>>6541398
I know what you mean, I was working on something a while back and only had two weeks to get it ready. I was in a rush and it felt really wrong the entire time I worked on it, I wasn't very committed to it and refused to style a wig or add details. I ended up finishing it on time but never wore it since I was so uncomfortable in the costume. (Which is odd since it was a character I liked and was well suited for - it was even a modest costume.)

Anyway, those hair buns look really cute, and if you do end up going with this I hope you'll post pictures! I haven't seen a Meelo or Ikki costume done, kudos on picking a few undercosplayed characters from an overcosplayed series. Sometimes things aren't meant to be - and cosplay is supposed to be fun, so don't push yourself into something you don't like working on! Good luck with the costume, I hope it all works out okay for you.

>>6540282
Do you have any darker color ribbon? The hot pink stands out like crazy when it should really be the same color as the corset.

>>6535649
protoss wizard? I am going to assume you mean high templar, and if you do those look amazing

>>6541404
LUCIFER!
Where did you get your wig from?

>>6541491
No, it's a mash-up protoss and D3 wizard that she made up.

>>6541484
It's actually just the lighting, but the ribbon is red; it's just a stand in til the actual laces come in the mail.

>>6541500
Cool kid award for recognizing the character~
I got it on ebay from a seller called wig-supplier. It was originally a pigtail wig but I put them both in back.
It's a lovely wig but it came much darker than I expected. I might sew in some lighter blonde wefts to make the color more accurate.

>>6541562
Yeah, I've been struggling to find the right shade of blonde for her myself, it's a surprisingly tricky shade haha. You look awesome so far, I'm keen to see it finished!

>>6541566
Yeah it's a rare blonde D:
And thank you! I hope it keeps going as well as it has so far

Almost finished with Miranda. Wish I had time to remake the the chest armor. I hate how it turned for. For my first time making armor, I guess it's alright but every time I look at it, I see nothing but imperfections.

>>6541981
Oh my god I love you, you are my hero. I want to do Albert someday.

>>6541528
Made up as in took the idea from a starcraft avatar that was special from a collector edition

maybe this thread can help me out here.

I've been thinking of doing a G.I-inspired Link for quite sometime now, and just found an old Army jacket in my attic, which I think would work perfectly for the tunic. I'm also going for a bullet belt, an army helmet with Link's hat on it, a skirt or kilt made of the same fabric that the army jacket is made of (or close to), some sort of leggings and steel toed boots.

it's obviously a long way down the road to completion, but since I'm ready to start i figured I might as well stop if something isn't right

>>6542128
>G.I-inspired Link
I'm sorry but that sounds absolutely pointless and silly

>>6542134
have to agree with this.

Sanding what's going to be my Marceline Axe Bass

>>6541363

Haha good guess! Vancouver, Canada here so you were close.

I'm here to announce that I have made RETROGRADE PROGRESS!

In other words, I probably won't be going to Sakuracon at all this year, or probably any other cons. Almost everyhting that could possibly go wrong for me in the past year has gone wrong - Murphy's Law Enforcement seems to have it in for me. I'm probably not going to end up homeless, and I am managing to provide myself with food, so that's something at least. I don't know if I should be waiting for the next anvil to drop, or if I should be relieved that there's not much else that can happen to make things any worse.

Alrightie, gonna give this a chance. Clover progress from VLR. I need to do something about the top because my bra is showing a bit. Also need to adjust the shorts a bit more, they were massive before but they just need to be perfected.

I ended up with a ton of cardboard boxes, so I'm putting together a Danbo cosplay for Ohayocon. I'm pretty excited. I hope to have it done over the weekend.

>>6542691
thighs look a little flabby otherwise not bad. Just wear thick tights and you'll be fine.

>>6542748
Haha I def plan to, I was just a bit too lazy for that one photo. But thanks!

>>6541981

Looking good so far anon, you're my hero as well! I'd love to see more pix of your progress as you finish. I've always wanted to try Rose, maybe someday...

>>6542691
Please be in London

>>6542332
shit im in bc too

>>6542788
Sorry, USA here.

Dark link boots are done!

>>6542926
Other side

>>6542926
>>6542930
Those are very nice!
How did you go about making them?

>>6542734
D'awww!

>>6542426
Wish you luck through everything. I hope things get better!

Almost there!
I have cut outs for the bow for rabi~en~Rose and her skirt done. I have the body part in the work for Cure blossom, and I have the armor cut out of styrene for Asuna. This doesnt look too bad.

Did the underskirt with ruffly bit for Youmu. It's taking so long to get things done, I'm gonna have to put off doing the original swords until next con...
At least I have her Koumajou Densetsu swords so it won't be all bad, but that's a bit silly.

>>6542691
Holy shit, that's Clover's new design? Wtf happened?

Progress for my Rainbow Dash punk style. The shirt will be greatly improved over the next few months. This was just slapped together for a relaxed convention this weekend. I wish I had some better ideas for RD though

>>6543307
ew

>>6543307
You should put "Die cis scum" on your upper arm.

>>6542734

I will hug you.

Gently.

>>6543307

>That pin

>>6543330
Wow. Guess I should've mentioned its a yaoi convention. It's a joke. That's all. I was going for a badass "Y'all can't touch ME!" Rainbow Dash. Thought it would be funny, and the vast majority of the friends going with me find it funny as well

>>6543336

I just got through the hardest part of any cosplay group: recruiting everyone. Next up, paper mache casts of their torsos.

>>6543247
ahhaha I'm not sure, she went...all out to be sure.

Been raining off and on down here so can't get any fiberglass work done. So in the meantime been finishing this thing up. Shoes are glued on and the line work is finished.

Now I just need to do the lenses and add a few mor layers to the spider to get it about as even as possible.

This is now officially my fuck around costume, as its cool, breathable, takes 2 minutes to get in and out of, and I dont give a shit about entering contests in this thing.

Might if I'm board add in a muscle suit underneath. But as I'm working on a full fiberglass suit, doubtful

>>6543905

>>6543929
Th-Thank you? I think?

All I can think of when ever I see Dr. Pepper.

>>6543945
the highest of compliments

>>6543982
Awesome, glad you like it.

I swear, one day I'm going to do a non comic or video game related character, and do something anime based, once I find an anime I like...

>>6543307
>>6543336
Jesus christ you are the epitome of hambeast ponyfag tumblr user.
Please never come here again.

>>6543307
I really hope by 'greatly improve' you mean get off your ass and lose weight. Even then, it wouldn't improve your lesbo punk version by much.

Hoping that this will turn more into a progress thread than a hate thread ...
Just finished Kinda putting together asunas armor. Just need to glue it so I can take the tape off. I am surprised how well this went for my first time working with styrene.

Aela's armour progress - most of the armour is basecoated now, but the hip plates need a bit more priming. Scuffing them up for pretty fun, I love really weathered, gross armour! Dress is being a pain in the ass, I'll have re-visit that in a few days.

>>6544335
English what? ***scuffing them up was pretty fun

>>6544305
Oh woah, is that black stuff styrene? It looks like foam or cardboard!

I'm here to show you my mediocre work. This is my Ramona hammer. I did the "head" styrofoam, covered with a kind of pasteboard, covered with newspaper and glue (art attack technics) and covered with spackling. Its look like a fucking box paitend in the pic, but I swear it looks nice.

The handle was a broom. The last step was sew a foam in it and put hot glue between the stitches. The next step is cut this fabric (a kind of faux leather) in strips and put it in the handdle.

>>6542128
I think it sounds interesting, if you do it right.
Off to a good start, I suppose.

>>6544347
Yup Yup~ I love it, its really sturdy. Thank you c:

Both bracers are done now.

>>6544335
Loos great! But better apply more primer on the curls. The structure of your Worbla is still very visible.

>>6539034
>The amount she gets is insane.
They pay for her hotel and travel to multiple places year round (which which would cost them thousands as it is), and probably pay her minimum wage for her to stand by the booth all day and do close to nothing.

Even companies like Nintendo cannot afford to dish out "insane" amounts of money like that. Your fangirl is showing and you should just stop.

>>6544710
I don't like how there's a big gap painted between trim pieces. Not your fault, though.

I'm out of packing tape. And I'm so close to being done. I just need to attach the bottom flaps better, attach the pauldrons (so no one can see my upper arms), and rig harnesses together!

>>6544710
So shiny, and impressive.
Fuck you guys are good.

>>6544946
I just wish i had more big slats rather than having to tape a bunch of smaller pieces together, but then again, this will only cost me whatever it takes to get more packing tape. So I can't complain too loudly.

Sage for not really contributing.

Finished Dualscar's armor, first time trying to make armor and im pretty happy with how it looks
cant wait to wear it at katsu now

>>6545177
Material?

>>6545181
just craft foam, wish I could make it in something else but figured I would go cheap in case i mess up and needed to buy more haha

>>6541465

You made me feel so much better. I decided to take a day off of cosplay- I was definitely too stressed trying to pull things together that it was starting to get in the way of actually creating. So a day off, some cleaning and de-stressing and I'm back on the horse. Still unsure about my costume- but my little Meelo has to be! I'm almost finished. I just need a final fitting and to attach the cape. I think I'm going to make a little dickie to go under, but I'm going to try it all on first and see where we're at.

Also fuck that one spot where the piping doesn't line up. Little bitch. Ain't nobody got time for that shit. Ohayocon is in a week!

>>6544822
I agree. Paint solid gold over dat shit. Makes them look like they have more seams than they should.

>>6543307
The hair is pretty awesome but the rest is a mess. You should look at and take some inspiration from other RD cosplayers, as a couple of them have done it right.

>>6545489
I think it's great that you're doing the airkids, I'm so sick of bad Azami and Korras. Please trim the bangs on your wig though, that middle piece is incredibly long and not at all like the reference.

>>6541562
HOW THE FUCK does the wig still stay on your head with two heavy-as-fuck ponytails on the back?! I tried to do the same thing and it turned out horribly; I had to make the ponytail much thinner and with much less hair than I had wanted it.

>>6539007
Um...that's not Blizzard booth costuming. I was talking specifically about Blizzard. Try again.

>>6539183
Your link isn't working. If you're talking about the Bridget Marquardt costume, I'm going to take a second and sound like Ayabi here, but it's made of fucking craft foam. Flimsy as shit, but looks good in pictures (like the Jojo OC rogue costume.) I'm certain Kamui's stuff would hold up better.

>>6545917
>>6545919
I double posted here, sorry.

>>6544822
>>6545907
Guess it's a matter of taste. I like these additional details.

>>6544953
Thanks a lot!

>>6539633

Finished vest
Now I need to make the bandages and a little bag, then figure out how im going to do the arm & shin guards

>>6545912

I'm still not sure if I'm going to be wearing the costume. I put together the shirt for Ikki last night and I looked a hot mess. I think the shoulders are too wide, sleeves too poofy, and I'm not sure if I want to bother fixing it, or if I'll have enough fabric from what I bought to do so.

if I don't wear it, no use in trimming the bangs. I'll just take it down and wash it off. I used the same wig previously for my Eleanor Lamb (little sister) cosplay and if I cut it I can't use it for that again.

my brother is definitely wearing that meelo costume though. NO ESCAPE.

>>6546325
Is this your first time making armor? I would suggest like eva foam. and just heat form it. I would just suggest making a pattern for the armor outta paper first, but I think you can do it!!


Got a little more progress done on Rabi~En~Rose, the outfit is almost done, just gotta put a hook on the skirt, fix the sleeves, fit the top of the top. and figure out the socks for the outfit. I am just going to use the shoes I used for Sakura to spare me some money. I made the heart on her skirt outta clay and baking it with the other clay things I made. I also have to drop asuna for katsu :C gonna find a costume to replace her with.

>>6546380

I don't yeah.

I'm so irritated with the fabric choices. The yellow I got is way too thin shitty broadcloth, but I was in the store for fucking two hours, it was the only yellow they had that wasn't a fucking hi-lighter. Same with the fucking orange, on the other hand it's too thick. It's lined. I think I'm going to take out the lining and hem it instead. And I think I'm going to have to line those fucking pants.

>>6546509
I really dislike the later versions of her outfit. Wish you had done the original design. Oh well.

Just finished the shirt for Jack Frost (after he... you know... but still in the past).
I think I made the slit in the neck a bit too long, but I am not too stressed over it. Next up, vest, cloak and pants.

>>6546553
Someone sounds a bit angry. I think the costume looks great though! One of the more color accurate ones I've seen (looks like it photographs well enough?), and your brother looks like he'll be an adorable Meelo. c:

>>6546556
Sorry love :< I went with this one because its a lighter pink, and For me finding a darkish pink wig I like was nearly impossible. Already finding a wig for her was terrible :C ended up ordering the new Suite Precure one Ayanamisatoru came out with.

>>6546553
I also think the costume looks good! I think you will be able to work this out! I believe in you!!

>>6546577
What fabric did you use for this? I am planning on cosplaying casca one day and this looks like a PERFECT fabric for her shirt.

>>6546625
Also if anyone wants a nice and long pink wig with thick pigtails here you go~

I am super butthurt about the bottom two ruffles. Basically I bought all my satin on Joann.com and one of the colors I bought ended up purple instead of the pink I saw on my screen. Okay, buy new satin... they stopped carrying that line of satin on the website and the local Joann's in my area doesn't have any pink left. I had pink satin left over from a previous costume and it looked fine in person material and color-wise, so I gather and sew it in and then once I take these photos it's just blindingly obvious how different the materials are.

I plan on taking off the bottom two ruffles and at least loosening the gathers so they match the rest of them in size, but not sure what I can do about the fabric difference. Considering doing sheer fabric overlays to mask it if I can't find something more suitable on my next trip to Joann's. Also after seeing someone do the Reese's pleats really well, I want to find out how they did and see if I can re-do the ruffles to be more accurate to the movie.

>>6546644
I didn't notice it at first, but I can see it now.
Good luck Anon.
I think it'd only be particularly noticeable on pictures taken with flash, or if someone's looking a bit too hard at you.

>>6546625
The fabric is just a thick, off-white/beige-ish linen I found at fabricland.

>>6546625
No worries, just personal preference on the red outfit! I am excited to see the headpiece from you! :)

>>6546644
I didn't notice the bottom two ruffles until you said something and even then I had to take a closer look. I wouldn't worry too much about it.

>>6546644
To me it just looks like the bottom two layers are ruffled more - I know it's probably the difference in how the diffferent fabrics work, but if you try removing some of the fullness/adding in more on the upper tiers, it might help.

First time project here. Working on a western style Protoman. Going to touch up the paint sometime this weekend and get some more tinting spray for the visor. Then all that will be left for the helmet is some battle damage and weathering. Not sure what I'll do for a gun yet as my local con banned all guns with any moving parts.

>>6546879
Crap, forgot picture.

>>6546644
I will admit I looked at it and thought you were trying to make the ruffles fade to a darker pink. I wish you luck though. I hate having to try and match fabric that shit gets real annoying real quick. I wish you the best though!

>>6546720
Thank you SO much. it is too beautiful.

>>6546737
Thats gonna be my favorite part, I plan on seeing about making bunny ear covers for my necomimi. I think I may wrap the headband of the necomimi with ribbon that matches the color of the wig so it wont be that noticeable. and im waiting for next pay check to do some fabric shopping for the dice and hair bows. I am SUPER excited about that.

I was finally able to varnish Mari's interface clips. They're drying their second coat now, and I'm thinking of doing one to two more coats. For my first prop I think they turned out rather decent. I would love to redo them and make a resin cast of them.
I'm still deciding on the headband. I picked it up because I thought the color was okay in store but it seems way too teal. The official art has it a a light blue purple hue but I couldn't find that.

finally done with the costume
now onto her staff thingy!

Day 2 of sanding Marceline's Axe bass. Just gotta make the head, carve some scratches in the body, and it should be ok to gesso.

Also I'm currently molding my vampire fangs into my mouth. Arurugurg my mouth has to stay in an awkward uncomfortable position for about 20 mins and it's killing me

Slightly more progress as I test fit my Jack vest. Still need to finish the arm holes and iron this thing, but I am pleased with it so far.

>>6547416
That would alternately work for el dorado.

Bah, I'm still not sure how I feel about this. I get super excited and giddy and in love with Cas, and then fall out of it.

Still not sure if I'm convincing enough to drop $100+ on wings

>>6546553

I honestly think that the fabric looks good! I do agree, you should hem the orange instead of lining it, though.

>>6547416

That looks really good so far! I'm excited to see more non-hoodie Jack costumes.

>>6547580

Just make sure your face doesn't look like you just smeared chocolate cake all over your face.

95% of Cas cosplayers look like that.

>>6547580
I can't tell from the picture but if I remember correctly, Misha has said that Cas wears his tie backwards.

>>6547631
But also like to add that you already look amazing!

>>6547624
Oh, I know. There's such a fine line between "'stubble' thick enough to show up in pictures" and "dirty lesbian hobo"
>>6547631
...I've never noticed. Come to think of it, I did see one picture with it like that, but didn't think anything of it.
Well I learned something new today.
>>6547379
Doesn't look too bad so far, but...is that just a bra? You might want to fix that.
>>6546553
So cute homg
>>6544710
still super jelly of your skill.

>>6546509

Thank you so much, yeah I don't really have much experience working with props or armor so I didnt know how to go about it

no much progress but eh its better than nothing!!

Drew up a plan for my Lambent Light sword for Asuna from SAO Its 32" from point to point and the blade itself is 25" Does anyone have idea what I should make the round thing and decorated piece out of? I was thinking craftfoam unless there is something else sturdier.

my boss said he has 3 pieces that will be perfect but its Teak wood.. I'm worried it will be too heavy but we will see!! Teak is such a pretty but expensive wood

>>6547648
it's actually not a bra but now that I look at it that's all I can see...
The character design makes it look like a bra anyways so I have no idea how I would change it.

>>6547648
>>6547896
I thought it was just a bra, too. Haven't a clue about the character so I can't help you fix it, though...figure out some way to dress it up a bit, maybe?

Try doing something with the bottom of the cups, that's the part that really says 'bra' to me.

>>6547579
why furry

>>6547896
My apologies, I shouldn't criticize a character I'm not familiar with.
I agree with this anon though >>6548068
I think it's the boning on the bottom of the cups that make it look like a bra. Also,lining the corset might help. The "bra" looks more opaque, almost like it's made of a different material.

>>6547407

Made the head, and did some of the battle damage detailing on on the base.

>>6547896
that REALLY looks like a bra that was cut apart and attached onto the corset which is a valid way to do it but you need to cover it with matching fabric. are you sure that isn't a bra? I can even see the side pieces and how did you get the shape moulded otherwise?

Worked on my Seymour wig, now waiting for it to dry before continuing. I'm attaching the wig hair using glue (it dries clear) and hair spray.

So far so good? I'm out of craft foam so I couldn't work on finishing the base for the other side and top of the wig yet.

Just finished drawing the outline of Katarina's pointy sort of blade onto some cardboard.
I brought some expanding foam also so the project is underway!
It's my first prop ever so I'm pretty excited.
: 3

>>6549765
umm...?

>>6535583

Jesus christ, those are awesome. What materials did you use?

>>6535649

How did you even

>>6549824
I'm not sure why the photo flipped on me like that. If you click on it It'll appear the right way?... Sorry, I'm really not sure why it did that.

Or if your wondering about the wig? It's for Seymour from FFX.
>pic of Seymour

>>6538985

Howww

>>6540394

Shut up. You're not contributing, you're not making any kind of valid point. Go away.

>>6541404

Wow, that's amazing!!!

>>6549831
not that anon, but they might be pointing out that it's pretty shitty looking. I've been holding back saying that because I'm hoping it'll improve.

>>6549765
>>6539644
>>6539635
This is just...really unfortunate. Wow.

>>6549859
It is a bit shitty looking. I know, it's a work in progress shoot after all with a very long way to go.

I'm still working on the frame base thing for the hair attachment things, I ran out of craft foam to finish it. The cardboard will be covered it was just giving me a tube shape to work with the foam. I've just started on attaching the hair to the front piece. I'm starting with the longer pieces and I haven't trimmed it yet so thats why it looks odd. The clips are holding the pieces that are on the other side, its hard keeping the hair there with it being upside down and all. I might add another layer of hair as well.

>Sorry for the rant.

>>6549860
...It looked worse before. The wire and craft foam bend so I can fix the positioning but I'm waiting to do the other side first to make sure they match up. It's about my face, well I wasn't exactly wearing any make up, just threw the wig on while working on it for a progress shot.

>>6549860
>>6549859
If you have any suggestions on not making it as shitty, by all means please let me know. I feel like I'm shoot in the dark a bit with this cosplay in general. The help thread wasn't much help with this wig.

>>6547666
I used sheet metal for mine, since I'm putting stuff over the edges anyway. Then it was kinda rolled into the shape and soldered together.

Please, please, please don't make it a perfect circle. The bottom edge is wider than the top edge. It is not perfectly round.

>>6540388
I love you, my boyfriend loves you, and my cat loves you for doing Mariah

No sewing progress but I put together and repaired the cabinets for the custom cutting and ironing table I'm making over the weekend and they're almost done.

Put a bunch of shelves onto the wall with brackets to hold bolts of fabric in the cutting room, but they were too weak and made me nervous every time I walked by them so need to find a stronger bracket alternative.

Things left to do before sewing crunch: tool pegboard, blackboard wall, mounted threadboards, tear out carpet and replace with laminate.

Feels like way too much...

>>6549902

Your craft foam base looks really haphazard, and if you don't even it out before you add more wefts, it's not going to take the shape you want. The key to doing ridiculous hairstyles like this is to make sure the base looks exactly like the reference, and THEN you can start putting wefts on. Don't depend on the wefts to make the shape you want!

It looks to me like you're just taking a big section of wefts and wrapping it around the shaft of your base. You should be doing one of two things: Either gradually layer up the wefts, or cut the fibers from the weft and make your own little wefts with fabric glue.

Pic related: although it's much smaller than your project, I used fabric glue on wig scraps to make this, on a base of wire, posterboard and felt.

You might get some ideas from these tutorials:

Shit, sorry, forgot to resize

>>6548274
Furry? It's a mascot....There's a difference. Since it's based of a character and not my own "fursona" it's not considered furry but a mascot.

It's gonna be Scootaloo from G3.5 For the lulz.

>>6550368
How do we know that when you just post a foam head with no description?

>>6550378
Meh, I'm just lazy. I got other actual cosplays I'm working on too but I normally don't do progress photos.

>>6549902

What you should do for the base, if you're dead-set on using craft foam, is layer that shit up and then use an exacto knife or scissors to carve it into the right shape, then start in with the wefts.

>>6550362
Well, the wefts wrapping is just that one section when I was trying to figure out what the hell to do with it. It's going to be covered by the surrounding hair. The other parts are the small little wefts I made with fabric glue like how you suggested. (well least I got that right.)

Hm, guess I'll just redo the front one? Does the side one look alright or should I redo it too?

>>6550064
thanks it's not actually but it was hard to make a prototype out of paper... I'm hoping to do craftfoam and then a layer of styrene for stiffness

I'm stuck now with the chest armor... so far I have a newspaper prototype so I can figure out how much styrene I'll need

More Jack stuff (cause I know you all just love the endless Jack cosplays!)
Lower cape finished. I did the capelet as well, but it will be remade since it made me look like I had massive football player shoulders.
Pants are a bit low(high?) on the calf right now, but that will be adjusted once I add the straps and weather them a bit. Also the velcro on the cape closure is just a place holder until I get a suitable clasp for it.

Finally done with all these scales... This was a tough job!

>>6550800
wow nice!

>>6550800
I swear to god that looks like it's edible.

Also, captcha the phone number of a budget truck rental place in Martinsville, IN.

>>6550800
Holy sweet mother.

>>6550808
>>6550813
Thanks a lot!

>>6550811
It's a cookie breastplate. If I don't manage to kill a dragon and to grill it, I still can make a cookies out of my breastplate.

>>6550800
Just put this on Facebook too I see.

Here's my shield progress. I've been bondoing for days and I still have a lot of shape issues. I gave up since I need to focus on other stuff. I'm going to draw the design and then put apoxy sculpt coils over the design.


>>6550800
That is just amazing. The shape is great.

Quick question for you Kamui. I know you blend worbla and wonderflex. I backed my shield with wonderflex strips to make it more sturdy, but the wonderflex is having a hard time adhering. I've heated and reheated... I couldn't get the worbla to be hot due to the shape, I didn't want it to alter. Have you had this issue? Is it because I didn't get the worbla heated enough with the wonderflex?

>>6550844
Boo forgot my image.

>>6547896
Wow, I really thought it was a bra that you were going to replace later as you continued progress on your cosplay. I didn't say anything because I thought I'd just be pointing out something you knew already. I would work on trying to keep the whites the same shade (though I don't know the character).

>>6550482

Sorry for the late response, I was out all evening. I'm glad you went the fabric glue route!

I'd definitely suggest taking a long hard look at the side one, because I'm not sure that it will work, but with the picture you posted I can't really see how it's put together, either. What you need to make sure of is that the end result of your bases look like a bald version of what you're going for.

it's done!

>>6538914
>asians
Yeah... You forgot Yaya Han, right?

>>6544710
The hightlight/shadow detail on the runes[?] is fantastic. So is the antiquing around the edges; great job.

working on 2 sets of Cammy bracers with Matts help since herp derp how do i make things. Looking much better than my last, super rushed ones.

>>6550844
Wonderflex glues on pretty everything which is out of plastic. So if your shield is out of clay, you'll have problems to fix it. I would recommend really to tense it over the shield at BOTH sides. IN addition Wonderflex has a little bit lower activation temperature than Worbla, so this can be the reason for your problem. But I won't use Worbla a material for sturdiness. Wonderflex is a much better choice for this job.

>>6551735
Awww, thanks so much!

>>6551615
I ... hate to say it... but that looks horrible.

Finished Ibuki's wig, Im verry happy with it

>>6542426
Just whore yourself out.

Painting goes on. My husband just finished the first upper leg armor for me.

>>6553174
wow! That is amazing work! Could you look at my post here >>6552682 and tell me what you think? I've never done armor before and I don't know if I am going in the right direction. Thanks!!

>>6552795
Very nice! The bangs came out excellently. However, is their any way to make the wrap stiffer? For me it's kind of floppy.

>>6553320
I forgot to add my photo of my progress.. crappy photo I know

Got this all constructed today. Next step resin tomorrow.

>>6553320
I forgot my photo.. and then it was upsidedown.... 3rd times the charm

>>6553343

You betrayed the LAW! XD

>>6550844
>>6551845
Thanks for replying Kamui. I don't think I clarified enough. The shield is made out of worbla, and on the back I added the wonderflex strips. Some are adhering well... other's not so much. I had to really force the wonderflex to adhere to the worbla (prior to bondoing). I finally had to heat up a metal tool and attack with the tool because my hands/heat weren't enough.

The clay that you saw on my first pic is bondo. You're right about the sturdiness, worbla while strong flexes a lot. The wonderflex and bondo have stopped the flexing quite a bit though.

Thanks again for responding.

>>6553336
this was before I changed the size of the wig, it stands up perfectly once I tightened the wraps, no mater what it is going to curve to the wrap because of the wieght of the hair (two 4 ft ponytails), I added a acrylic stick under the wrap as well to keep it as straight as possible.

>>6552795
Amazing! How'd you do the bangs? they look really clean and are standing up well.

>>6553629
I made a flat pony tail, sewed it into the right spot, made a wire frame to the top of each of those bangs, glued it in and then worked the hair in around them with ALOT of fabric glue and hairspray. I used some of malindachans guides on what material to use.

>>6553320
Actually I am making the same armor that you are making. I had a friend recommend me styrene, and it looks pretty cool. I bought it in black because its all that they had at the craft store around me, but you can get it in white also. I made a pattern out of paper then cut it outta styrene with scissors and then heat formed it together, I just need to glue it now.

Yes OMG! I can't believe I missed your posts.. Thanks that really settles it I'm getting styrene!

Finished up all my beading on my fancytier Meenah yesterday - I'm really happy with how the symbol turned out.

No problem I am glad I could help a bit! I mean I got mine from a hobby shop near me, Well they special ordered it into the store, which took less than a week!

Cant wait to see this~~

Need a little guidance. I just finished sewing one of the dice for rabi en rose. I wanted to know before I start the other one, do you think this one is a bit too big? I dunno I feel like it is a little off, but it just might be me because I dont have the wig to sit it on top of yet ...
What is your opinion on the hair dice?

way too big. half that size is big enough. you need two on each side, remember.

Thank you so much! I have the rest of the second one cut out but didnt start. thanks so much! imma go half the size now!

So far i have a sketch on what I'm gonna do. Hopefully it'll work. I have no money to buy the worbla, gloves and the foam yet at the moment.

Fucking hell I forgot the photo. I also need to work on the karate pants, but that shouldn't be too much work compared to the gloves and getting the godlike physique

Ok, because I hate myself and I wanted more work to do. I decided Sunday that I would do a 1 week speed build for the con coming up friday.
My goal, N7 Amor from Mass effect. Now, this isn't the first time I've built the armor, so its not completely new to me.
Here's where I'm at now
All pieces are cut out minus the shins, shoulders and feet
Most peices are marked for dremel and panel line work
I'm getting straps after work to start attaching everything together and do final fitment.

Now everything as it is is what I generally call soft molded. I wanted to just get the basic shape untill I start strapping them all together.
After they are strapped I can see what needs to be pushed and pulled and molded to fit me better.

This is also just a huge fuckaround piece for me. I know I wont have the electronics in by Friday, which while a bummer is just realistic.
Still, couple more days and I'll be done.

and here is the arm, I'll pass on showing the lower body as there isn't much detail on them untill they get shaped and dremeled some more.

Also, the upper and lower chest will be seperate for better mobility. I have seen several people build them all as one section, which always confused me.

holy shit, the hope symbol is a great touch

I JUST REALIZED WHAT YOU ARE COSPLAYING
NOW I AM GETTING TOO EXCITE TO SEE THIS AT KATSU.

So I tried out putting the bunny ears I made on the necomimi, didnt work because they were to big. looks like I am just going to have to attach the ears to the wig and not wear necomimi under them. sad days indeed. Instead I am going to do what I did to my Jade Harley wig and see if there is a way to stick them through the wig wefts so the base doesnt show.

Here is the costume.
I see that it really looks like a bra... It might as well be since I had to put a wire at the bottom of the cup so it's basically a bra anyways..
I don't think I'll change it due to the fact that no matter what I do it will A. always look like a bra or B. make my boobs saggy mcsaggers

Going to add another layer to ears to give them shape along the back.

I suggest shortening the snout a bit too.

Started painting Jack's staff.
