| WAS A SECRET But after loosing 2 dress sizes and finally more confident about my body shape- i'm defo putting this ahead. I'm not a massive X men fan, but I love this outfit so much that I had to give it a go Will be worn at Kita-con :D Update- 19/03/11 IT IS COMPLETE!! Going to wear at Manchester expo- but only after I re-do the boots with a more comfortable pair of base shoes so I can actually walk! Gonna try and get a few hours of this at London on saturday :) I will ignore the pain in my left foot!!! Only problem people have to put up with is that this Phoenix is now blonde xD | |

DONE (Posted 19th March 2011) First came up with the idea for Phoenix waaaay back, but I wasn't confident enough to go for it. Then one day I decided to buy the base catsuit on ebay, which was my best desion EVER. So happy this is complete, was originally a dream cosplay, and now i've finished it xD |
 |
gloves (Posted 15th March 2011) They failed again T__T since i'm cutting things close to kita now, i'm just gonna buy a pair on ebay for now, and attempt making them again after kita. |
|
Boots (Posted 15th March 2011) First of all a massive THANK YOU to the article/tutorial that Ranma 1/2 wrote on this site, without it I wouldn't have known where to start! However, because of the fabric I used, the boots were so hard to make! After several attempts, this was the best I could do, I know that they aren't perfect, I might attempt them again after Kita. |
|
bad times and good time (Posted 6th March 2011) Today I did some more work on this, I spent AGES working on the gloves this morning, and they failed :'( but then I worked on the emblem and I'm very happy with the progress so far xD |
|
Catsuit verdict (Posted 10th February 2011) So I put this costume up, but to be honest I wasn't 100% sure if I was going to go ahead with this since I had no idea how I would look in something so fitted. However I brought the base catsuit and today it arrived- and I nervously tried it on... And I don't look bad at all- still in shock but I think I can actually pull this cosplay off :D- Phoenix will defo be done for Kitacon!!! |
|
in progress (Posted 19th December 2010) not done the main factor which will decided if i'll defiantly be doing this costume, but I found a few bits that can be used in this :) |
