My hood pattern :) (Posted 28th July 2011)

For someone on Cosplay.com

Just an entry to say i'm done :) (Posted 21st May 2011)

Everything's complete. Stuffing just needs evened out once out the suitcase but apart from that. I'm complete finally.

shoes (Posted 20th May 2011)

ok so instead of the shoes i wanted (:/ they arent getting sent in time ffs) i've had to op for these, which in a way are better. I can't walk in heels since i've had a few problems with my knee's and back and legs etc. so these are ok they're really comfy, i modded them with craft foam for the gray parts, they're nice and chunky too! The leggings arent on them properly here they're just pinned on to see what they'd look like, also, i know you can barely see my legs but im wearing the tan tights that i'm going to wear with this cosplay :) so thats that done!

Complete! (apart for one thing) (Posted 13th May 2011)

Well the one or two things that arent complete is the top of the zip, i'm getting some orange fimo to top the zip and pull it back onto the coat so it sits better. i'm not wearing my tanned tights or shoes here because it was a quick throw on (which isnt that quick and takes three people to help me into it..) to show it 99% complete :) so hot :(

also arms need more stuffing,took some of it out to do the tail!

Mask 50% (Posted 10th May 2011)

this is the Tao mask half done :) just gotta put in the stuff i have for the eyes and mouth. My friend helped me vacuum form a base mould that i had made for it, I then etched in the eyes and mouth and then cut them out, i would have left the mouth and just painted it on but It was apparent that I clearly needed a way to keep it on for a longer period of time, so instead I'm making something for the mouth that is breathable. I've gave it A LOT of coats (i lost track of how many) coats of paint to make sure that you absolutely couldn't see through it, will test flash with it on at another time. Working on making the color Matte too if i can get around to it after other things. I don't mind it being shiney but I'd rather it was Matte. Once i have the eyes and mouth done on this im 100% done!

80% done! (Posted 1st May 2011)

Tao 90% done, already got the leg warmers but not wearing them in this picture, top of the zip *where the orange is* needs to be done and arms stuffed a little more! :D

I realize that i look really short in this >< damnit

Braid holes (Posted 1st May 2011)

Braid holes and zip pull is on, just sorting out the rest of the stuff thats going between teh gap of the collar and zip then attach the braids :D

Zip and braid holes :3 (Posted 1st May 2011)

Made from fimo! and baked :D then a small square taken out the back of the zip to fit it onto the current zip pull

Buttons! (Posted 1st May 2011)

got them sewn on along with the zip, just gotta finish baking the zip made out of fimo :3

Braids! (Posted 28th April 2011)

FINALLY after hard work searching and buying and searching and trying bah!

I got something sorted! and i'm really happy with the length and the thickness of them too! they just need a little shaping off at the bottom then i can attach them. I'm so proud!

Back (Posted 25th April 2011)

This is just to show the back of the tail and the tail hole and how it sits at the moment. :) my brother is just holding the tail up so the edge of the tail hole can be seen better.

Paws (Posted 25th April 2011)

So eventually I got the paw's sewn on by hand, not the best job in the world but i like it, i have such childish hand stitching skills haha. Feel alot better all this is out the way with, next the Mask, Buttons, Paw zip, and sewing the zip on!

Tail (Posted 25th April 2011)

Eventually got around to doing this! got some black fur and already had left over white fur from my Horo tail and ears, just had to trim it down, so they don't EXACTLY match but they're good enough for me. I'll get around to putting a wire in it so it stays off the ground, this'll be attached to a belt around my hips/waist :3

Tail hole :3 (Posted 25th April 2011)

Eventually got around to doing it. Used the same material as my ears and paw's. Cut a circle out in the back of the coat then used the same template to cut out the shape so it'd fit around. :3 Its not sewn on/applique on this picture,just resting on the fabric.

The fabric i used is over the shoulder just to show the color and texture i used :D

Ears 2 (Posted 10th March 2011)

Thar, all corrected and such. only on one side as hers are :3 (ignore the buttons on the mannequins, just there so i dont lose them and they're ready for being put onto the coat right after i get the zip sorted out xD) I havent sewn the zip on yet because i dont want to do it until i've sorted out the zip pull xD just so i know where im putting it on properly. :3, paws are done too will post pics later

Ears! (Posted 10th March 2011)

Started putting the stitching into the ears today, I accidentally put it on both sides then realised after that its only on one xD Fml. So i've corrected them since this picture :3

Claw slots :3 (Posted 7th February 2011)

sister helped me out on painting these :D

Paws! (Posted 7th February 2011)

Paws all cut and painted :) Fabric paint is a life saver <3

Day 3 (Posted 5th February 2011)

Hood part done, I did redo the back where it points as i didnt like it so now it fits better :) Hand sewn on since sewing machine would just kill it xD

Day 3 (Posted 5th February 2011)

Legwarmers done! Added the elastic and they fit perfect, just need to get some shoes and attache the toe parts to it :)

Day 3 (Posted 4th February 2011)

Stuffed the ears after cutting them out :) took me like three times to get it right on spare material before i got a size i was comfortable with, pinning them on was a whole different storie xD took 13 times taking them on and off to get it the way i want it, made one point slightly up and the other down :) looks cute,my brother is helping me attach small wires/string on the inside to make them move,but thats just a maybe!

Day 2 (Posted 4th February 2011)

got the hood cut out and done, took me two attempts to get it the way i wanted it, and hand sewn on because i didnt want to mess it up in the machine, just got the ears and the front part of the hood to put on (That pointed thingy)

Day 2 (Posted 4th February 2011)

Leg warmers half done! Painted on the smaller details as i couldnt dart or sew them in unfortunately :( just gotta add elastic to the top and then shoes!

Day 1 (Posted 3rd February 2011)

Collar done, I totally forgot to cut it out as one peice with the rest of the jacket even though i reminded myself like a MILLION times. before hand :( Collar doesnt go all the way around theres a gap at the back where the hood drapes down so that it just blends in with the fold's :)

Day 1 (Posted 3rd February 2011)

Sleeves done haha, not stuffed yet but going well :3 they're the perfect size too! Yey!

Day 1 (Posted 3rd February 2011)

Got the base of the jacket started and pinned together :D Pattern wasnt much help though :( so had to do my own!
