Progress update (Posted 29th April 2011)

Almost finished the blouse! :D I redid the black the cuffs only I hand sowed this time without using fabric glue. It took 4 hrs but im pleased with how it turned out. Sowing is actually a lot of fun and quite easy once you get the hang of it. Still need a lot of practice...though. Also Need to get a new skirt because the one I brought is well too big for me and some special fx make up

Its almost done (Posted 19th February 2011)

Yes, this cosplay is almost sorted just need the skirt and tights, and I will work on the extra bits when it gets closer to expo. Going to leave this cosplay for a while so I can concentrate on my Black rock shooter cosplay now and oh yeah need to some uni work grumble -.-

progress 1 (Posted 13th February 2011)

Ok so yesterday I went shopping with my sister. Ended up buying a blouse but it wasnt the length I wanted. Later we went to lewisham and I brought some leather. It was my first time in a fabric shop so I didnt know what I was going to get. But it was easy to figure out and the amount of fabrics they had in that shop was awesome. We also went camden after-wards to find a pvc/leather skirt, but they were either too pricey, too small or too big.
When I got home instead of using the blouse I brought I cut the blouse I used for my rolling girl cosplay into a crop top. Its not completely finished yet but I tried it on and its a little too short, I think well for me it is.
But Im going to cosplay black rock shooter on the saturday so what difference will it make? I had to cut the sleeves on the blouse so they are a little uneven. I have weird shoulders so I don't know? Thank God its not that noticeable at the moment though. I still need to sow on the leather so I'm going to try doing that by hand as my mum wont let me use her sowing machine. Hope I don't mess up! Ive got loads of leather left so if I don't like it I'm just going to have to redo it all over again T^T

Random (Posted 11th February 2011)

omygosh I saw someone in my animation class watching episode 6 of PSWG today. How brave I mean there was scenes of Panty taking her panties off you know!! lol xD
I tried explaining to my friend what he was watching but she just gave me the biggest WTF look ever. Figures -.- I felt rude watching it behind his back afterward but I was too nervous to say anything ah well :3 It was that episode when Panty and Stocking were having that big showdown with the demon sisters at the school, I think? My memory of it is kinda hazy since I finished watching season one a while ago -.-
Sorry this wasn't relevant to my cosplay but it was surprising for me. xDDD

Wig arrived :D (Posted 3rd February 2011)

WTF it arrived here so quickly. Its a lot different than I expected it's really blonde, with only a slight mix. It wasnt pre-stlyed either, my mistake but the seller didnt exactly clarify whether or not it would be so I assumed. Its actually really nice wavy and quite long O.o Well Im no expect on wig quality but I think it is :D
Will add a picture later.
Just tired it on, I think the cap is a bit too small so it feels a little bit tight. Right now I'm really glad I got a really short haircut (mohawk :D) done because I hadn't cut it the wig would of looked too bulky at the top. My hair is unfortunately too thick so I cut it for the sake of cosplay wigs :D
It looks kinda weird on my skin tone, it makes my dark scars stand out more. Nooo -.- lawl. Which means I'm going to have to work ten times harder on my make-up than anything else.
Better start watching some make-up tutorials
I might have to style it myself as well O.o Not looking forward to that...aah well -.-

Pantys wig (Posted 21st January 2011)

Ok just ordered my Panty wig, I was going to buy a simple blonde one that I could style but got a prestyled one instead since it wasnt too expensive. I think the hard part is over now, I find online shopping so nerve whacking. :S I hope I get my purchase soon and that it will look good as well.
