I liked that Nui's scissor blade, but it was the only way I recognized her as Nui. Otherwise I would've thought she was some shitty Leg Avenue lolita.

That Nonon wig is so weak. You can barely see her hat, and it's supposed to be huge.

[Anonymous No.7435081]

Asked this in the last thread right before it died, so I'm putting it out there again.

I'm working on my Satsuki mock-up, and I'm having trouble with the gold "stripes" on un-transformed Junketsu. Do you think it would be better to applique on bias-cut strips, or try to pattern out one or two pieces that fit in? I'm leaning towards applique, but I'm worried it will be hard to get it to lay nicely.

Everything else is turning out fantastic so far, I'm just stuck there.

[Anonymous No.7435088]

Definitely do the applique. Trying to pattern out pieces when you already have the materials seems silly and overcomplicated.

Their group was obnoxious too. The entire KLK meetup was so unfriendly and full of pretention, it was just uncomfortable. A friend of mine who was new and halfway through the series and cosplaying felt uncomfortable when I brought her to the meetup because the entire group just felt so unwelcoming, so we just left. It was awful. Hopefully the next con will be better.

[Anonymous No.7435575]

I was planning on doing a Hoka Inumuta cosplay, but got caught up on his wires. Does anyone know a good way to do them? I was thinking somehow get some sort of thin light fibre or something and wrap it with light blue something or maybe put it in tubes.

If you try searching on ebay "light up shoe strings" some ones that glow blue should pop up. I've seen some people incorporate those into their cosplay and I think it would work well for yours too.

[Anonymous No.7435594]

>>7435575
It was more like those that hadn't been traveling in the same "troop" or whatever would try and get in for pictures, or try talking with the rest of the group, but the group led by the Nonon and some other mako with her would act incredibly stand-offish and direct all of the photographers with the big cameras to be taking pictures of THEM and no one else. And some of the cosplayers that were dressed particularly well, like the Tsumugu, they would swarm like flies (especially the girls, they whored themselves around that guy until I was second hand embarrassed to watch) I personally wasn't cosplaying, and they didn't bat an eye at me, but some of those who were looked very out of place amongst that one obnoxious crowd. They didn't look like they were having fun and it just seemed very awkward overall.
I agree, none of them were very good. I figured they'd at least be a little friendlier.

If these work for the measurements, they seem like they would work the best for the sleeves. Wrap them in a clear tube with metal wires for stability, For his part connecting to his collar, EL wire looks best, The pants part though, I don't really know about that part, especially because I'm considering where all the switches/battery parts are going to be

You'd want EL wires for the ones that go from his cuffs to his pouches and EL tape, side by side in however number you'd prefer, for the ones along his back and legs.

>pic related, the package of EL wire, EL tape, adapters, and extensions I received today

[Anonymous No.7435644]

>>7435630
So how would the EL wire work exactly for the cuffs. If each arm has 2 wires, would I need 2 wires with 2 battery packs, or is there a way to connect multiple wires to one batterypack/switch?

[Speed !Wagon/xREI No.7435672]

>>7435630
I meant inverters instead of adapters, sorry for any confusion.

>>7435644
If you look at the reference sheets, Inumuta would have one battery pack hidden in the pouches per EL wire, so actually, you'd need 4 wires and 4 battery packs despite the pairs being attached to the same cuff at the start. You can get battery packs that will feed more than one wire/tape though, if that's what you want to know. It'd have more connectors but require more battery power.

I'm looking at his jacket and my thought was to buy a White blazer and use it as a base for the rest of it. Add an invisible ripper, iron on the three star pattern and I can add on the Cuffs and collar to it without too much difficulty.

The only problem I'm having is finding a good blazer to start from, preferable one that doesn't have huge lapels.

I don't care if I have to wear a ladies size so long as it fits(I'm a pretty slender guy).

Or m I better of finding a pattern online and going with that?

[Anonymous No.7436208]

I've never used it before until this and I'm not a prop expert either. I messed up a little on the first attempt but I understood how it worked better on the second go. Once you get a carving technique going it was pretty alright but I guess I'm not the most perfect carver yet. It looks more terrible before you put the masking tape on, which really neatens it up I found. If I had more time I may redo some things but I just don't right now.

More on topic though, when will there ever be a probe regalia cosplay?

[Anonymous No.7436222]

>>7436020
You can if you direly want to, the wig would make you recognizable enough, but a lot of people would say, "I know you're Ryuko but.. what are you wearing?"
I think the only way it could absolutely work was if you had a group of other Ryukos doing the other outfits.

>>7436045
I'm doing Nonon too (default outfit though), and I bought a shako from eBay as a base.
The little emblems and fabric are removable but it's a bit of a pain.
I have white vinyl that I plan to cover the brim with and I'm going to build on top of it with Worbla, possibly craft foam depending on how I feel about money.

The thing is that no one really cares about your opinion, because you're black. It's the whites who will shit talk and rape any white girl who dares to cosplay as a black one. Death threads and tracking you over the internet included. Someone on /cgl/ posted about this the other day how her life was ruined by cosplaying a slightly darker skinned character.

Also Rei is a shitty character that no one even cares about (not to mention that no one likes her) so it's incredibly offensive that you feel offended that you, as a privileged cis-het white woman get some actual critique for "cosplaying" (read: blackfacing / doing a minstrel show) as her.

I had to put holes in mine, to accommodate two wires on each side. Couldn't think of any other way to do it that wouldn't be a pain. However, the holes ( more like small slits ) are small, and made just below the grey bias tape I used, so you really won't see them. I keep them on my arms attached to something sort of like a wristband.

[Maguma !ftEuMagUmA No.7439781]

>>7439772
Craft foam, cardboard, sintra, Worbla. You could pretty much make it out of anything and just make sure that you coat it in something/sand that shit to smooth it out if necessary.

My vote is cardboard. Always and forever.

[Anonymous No.7439786]

>>7439772
Faux matte leather. It's pretty cheap at fabric stores (and it isn't like you need much). I'd make the eyepatch out of the same stuff to keep it looking consistent.

>>7439781
Do not use carboard or craft foam. It will look terrible.

[Maguma !ftEuMagUmA No.7439795]

Then you clearly do not know how to use said materials. But the Matte Pleather is a wonderful idea actually. You'd just wanna reinforce the shit out of it though so it's not flapping around on your hips.

I wanted to use a smooth leather type fabric for the chest piece but it's a little bit shiny, would this look very bad? because I wanted to use the same material for Seki Tekko since I found the perfect red for it.

Don't just get regular imitation leather-- it needs to be Matte, else it will look shiny. If you don't have it in your area, maybe look online for some sellers? Honestly it will look better than shiny leather or cardboard with paper mache.

[Maguma !ftEuMagUmA No.7439817]

>>7439800
Because it's not clothing. The things on ryuko's hips, while small, are clearly hip guards. and they even double as pouches since she stashes the Scissor blade in em at one point. They are always sturdy and they never crumple or fold. There's no way that they're a fabric piece.

>>7439808
Yeah that would work just fine to harden and smooth it. I've used stuff like Polyfilla before to smooth out pieces that I've covered in plaster gauze.

As for the chest piece you'd wanna go with something more matte since it's an armor bit. If you wanna go with something that has a bit of shine it wouldn't ruin the design but it depends on the fabric. Do you have a picture we could look at??

[Anonymous No.7439819]

Because they're not fabric, it's armor. Clearly she has hip guards on her belt. They have obvious volume, shine, and depth to them.

Just because she's wearing a school uniform doesn't mean that all parts of the outfit are fabric.

>>7439829
Actually that material would work just fine, anon! The texture is a bit rough but if that's what you'd like to use there's no harm in it. If you can find something a bit smoother, I'd go for that instead of this. But this material you posted will work just fine for the chest and even for the hips if that's what you wanna do :)

>>7439837
What you can do is just make it with a curve. You don't necessarily have to get that pointed tip and those complex curves. Do what you can to the best of your ability. Lemme grab some material and I can cut out a piece and show you what it could look like and what you could do~

Oh my gah! Thank you so much, anon

[Maguma !ftEuMagUmA No.7439871]

>>7439844
So I basically eyeballed the design onto cardstock and cut it out and curved it a bit. What you could do essentially is use this same shape but with cardboard. From there you can do the paper mache and Polyfilla, you can cover it with the same pleather material for a smoother and uniform look to match your chest piece, the choices are yours, but this is an easy way to just build a base. Also be sure to make a stencil cut out like I did here so you can get the exact shape you want before you go through with all your materials. Nothing sucks more than wasting materials to get something you don't want at the end. And if you make a mistake, it's a learning experience and you'll be that much more prepared for round two or any other projects you go at!~

I hope this helped!!!

If you don't have boobs and aren't comfortable showing underboob, this cosplay isn't for you. Bodysuits will look bad because you won't see your bellybutton or the proper curves of your boobs. It'll look like you're wearing a bodysuit, plain and simple.

[Anonymous No.7441197]

Alright so I posted this a couple weeks ago but I'm posting again because I would like some opinions/advice because I'm stuck on how to approach a few things. The only progress I've made is ripping apart the shoulders to remake them better and dropping 10 lbs neither of which do I have pictures gomen. Starting to wire everything up to glow soon - it's going to be a pain but I'm psyched.

First issue is the thong/straps are a little too revealing in their design for me to be comfortable cosplaying with nothing underneath at a con but I don't want to be inaccurate and mess with the design.

I'm trying to think of the most subtle way to wear something under it that would blend.

My current "idea" is to use the full body underbust dance tights and to cut out a hole in the segment where my belly button is and then use a super fine lace in that section to make a sort of "invisible undersuit".
Just want opinions on if people think it will look like shit or if they have better ideas.

Second issue is the butt - in Satsuki's Junketsu design the back is next level thong status and the con I'm going to is very specific about "non thong underwear at the minimum" so should I nix accuracy on that and make the back strip a couple inches wide? Or just hope that my wig covers the sensitive bits.

Appreciate the help I just want this costume to turn out not shit tier haha

well you could always do it the old fashion way and grid it out. Just take that body shot and overlay a grid over it and proportion it out to your height/body and then you'll be able to count by squares how big they should be and it'll be proportioned to your body so it'll look right.

You should keep the thong accurate, just wear nude panties or shorts underneath. Also look up a C string if you want extra protection. In a con setting I'm sure people will understand even if the nude shorts are very obvious, and you can just wear it accurately for a private shoot. You've probably seen that amazing Ragyo with the nude cover-up. Yes it's not 100% accurate but she looks amazing and everyone agrees. That other fat ragyo with no coverup looks shit.

I'd say MDF. It's going to be a bit on the heavy side, but it's a lot easier to finish than plywood.

For the finish, I'd start with a base of glossy black. A layer of silver on top of that will give you a nice metallic finish. Translucent red on top of that will, well, make it red.

So, I'm very interested in cosplaying Ryuko when she's wearing Junketsu. However I'm at a loss for the armor bits (the thighs/chest/junketsu eyes).
I plan to get a skintone bodysuit (because her bellybutton and boobs don't show) and wear that swimsuit-looking part over it.
The rest of the cosplay is super easy to sew, but I have very little prop making experience.

Because she lost her eye.

Yeah.

[Anonymous No.7441667]

So I've been working on my Seifuku for Ryuko (pic related) and I'm really unhappy with How Senketsu's eye looks, it just looks so messy and meh. What would be a better way to do this? I'm aware the rest looks shitty atm since I haven't put it all together yet or neatened it up as I wanted to get the eye out the way

Do you own a sharp rotery cutter? I get real nice lines that way. You need to buy a cutting mat, too, but it's a good ~$30 investment for the cutter+mat set.

>>7441667
It's easier to press your seams as you go, rather than try to iron the entire garment once it's done.

If you get the chance, you might want to hand-sew the eye. With a bit of practice you'll be able to be way more accurate and precise than with a machine.

Satsuki is the next costume I'm working on. I originally ordered a black wig, pictured here, but I think I'm going to go with a black/blue mix if I can find one that doesn't look too blue in photos. I went ahead and did a quick trim of the black wig and a kind of makeup test, just to see how I want to style everything. I thought about keeping the bangs a big longer, since they do cover her eyebrows slight in references, but I think having them fall just above helps keep the intensity of the eyebrows from being lost in the wig.

Wish I had more to share, but I haven't started working on the costume yet. I've got my materials all gathered, with the exception of stuff for her sword.

[Anonymous No.7442246]

>>7442233
I actually think Satsuki with just black looks better, but maybe that's because all the non black Satsuki wigs look so off to me. Just clean the bangs up a bit, but it looks good. You have a great face for Satsuki.

[Anonymous No.7442249]

>>7442233
the bangs look really "flat" to me for some reason, I'm not sure how to explain it? Like, it kind of just slopes into your forehead... I think very minor volume could help?

I'll give it within a week for something shitty. Maybe 3 or 4 days at shortest.

[Jillian !renewXt2Xo No.7442332]

>>7442246
I initially liked black as well, but after looking at references, particularly of Satsuki when she's wearing Senketsu, black just seems too dark. But I agree, I have not seen a non-black Satsuki wig that didn't feel off. I'm waiting on a wig to ship that I think has the right shade, but if I don't like it I think I'm just going to stick with black.

I've thought about buying a dark blue wig and dying it to get the right shade of black with blue undertones, but I don't really have experience with dying wigs, so I'm not sure I could achieve the look I want and not ruin a perfectly good wig.

>>7442249
I know what you mean, Anon, I had a similar thought. The bangs seem really thin, but I will see if I can add some more volume somehow. Or at least keep it in mind if I use a different wig.

Thanks, this is why I like sharing stuff with you guys.

[Anonymous No.7442358]

>>7442233
Okay, this is probably a dumb question, but did you trim (or at least mark) the bangs while wearing the wig? I haven't trimmed mine yet, and I'm worried about getting the "V" correct if I do it on a wig head like usual.

Mine is also blue-black (Raven from Arda) and I think I like it better than true black.

[Jillian !renewXt2Xo No.7442399]

>>7442358
I did mine pretty quickly, so it's not cleaned up, but what I did was I cut some of the length of the bang off on the wighead and then finished trimming it while wearing it so I could get it to fall where I needed it to relative to my face. I used my eyebrows as a guideline. If I were to clean this up more, I'd put it back on the wig head just to make sure the sides and edges are even.

Fun? Maybe. Easy? Not a chance, and I'm not exactly skilled with props. Any tips on how to go about it? Expanding foam maybe?

For the racket, if you had a heat gun and a hula hoop maybe you could bend the hula hoop into the racket shape, then attach a handle to it? Spray foam the end and make spikes out of more foam or something. I feel like the strings should be made out of some sort of wire and then paint the whole thing like

I like the hula hoop idea, that'd work really well. You could drill holes through the hoop to put the rope in. Tie knots on the outsides so they stay in place, nice and taught, and then cover the knots with the spikes on the outer layer.

Just sew a piece of plastic into the collar, like they do with baseball cap brims. Get something solid but somewhat flexible, or use something solid but cut into several pieces so the piece can form a curve while remaining stiff.

[Anonymous No.7442942]

Maybe try attaching the horns to the headband via snaps or screws like homestucks do? Then wear the headband under the wig and attach the horns to the headband, that way headband is covered and horns are still visible? I hope I described it well. I haven't done many cosplays with headpieces.

It looks like you've got several loose hairs (fly aways) in your wig. I'd recommend coming a wig conditioner through it, it'll get rid of those.
As for the makeup, you need to hide your actual eyebrows a bit more, and it may just be the lighting, but your draw on eyebrows don't look quite dark enough. The shape is good though.

The flyaways are because the main part of the wig is braided and bits came undone when I put it on. I didn't want to unbraid it though because it tangles and wig-related products are surprisingly hard to find in my part of Canada. Everything I've found so far barely makes a difference or is way overpriced.
The eyebrows were solid black in the mirror so I'm guessing lighting combined with a shitty cam. I'll try to fix what I can for next time though, thanks.

If you have the right tools, it's a breeze. I'd at least go into the project with a jigsaw if you don't have access to a bandsaw. Any kind of powered sander (palm sander, rotary tool, disk sander, etc) will make the final shaping easier, but you can get away with a set of files and a lot of sandpaper.

You can get the same results that you would with less tools, it's just going to take a lot longer.
