Planned Re-wear (Posted 20th May 2012)

So, I plan to re-wear this costume this year at October MCM Expo as part of Sjbonnar's Shaman King group.

I'm really looking forward to it even if it is months away yet!

COMPLETE (Posted 26th October 2011)

As the title suggests. This costume is complete now and ready to go to Expo.
Pictures will follow post-expo asIdont have time to take any beforehand; and because, at Expo I'll be getting pictures with my wonderful friend kadaj006 as my fabulous Faust VIII

SO MUCH EXCITEMENT NOW :D

And Breathe (Posted 18th October 2011)

Stress over.
My second wig came today. And its beautiful. Its hands down my new favourite of my wigs.
All thats left to do now is make a belt with the leatherette fabric left over from Laura's Tifa costume.
So close to being completed now; which is a relief after thinking I wasnt gona be done in time for Expo :)

Major Panic (Posted 13th October 2011)

Stress is really on for getting this costume done now.
I realised the other day that my wig STILL hasn't arrived. I ordered it at the beginning of August; and when I tried to contact the seller for the third time after two successful tries, they had disappeared from Ebay.
So I've ordered a new one
Hopefully I get this one in time.

Dress (Posted 6th October 2011)

The pink dress for this costume is now nearly completed. It just needs shortening to the right length, and a few darts added in the back to make it fit nicely, and then its good to go :)

Only thing Im missing now is the wig which still hasnt arived, dispite odering it 4 weeks go :(

Almost There (Posted 13th September 2011)

{This title remind me that I still havent seen Princess and the Frog}
But on a cosplay related note...

Everything is looking good so far. Its all coming together very nicely.
And the weapon that Kadaj006 is making for me looks absolutely amazingly awesome. So thank you very very much huni!!

Sy's Faust is also looking good. We did alterations to the jacket yesterday (which took longer than expected, but these things always do when Im involved)

I HAS SHOES (Posted 2nd September 2011)

... Like the title says
I has shoes.

Making good progress with this costume now.

And with Sy's Faust trousers

Wig (Posted 12th August 2011)

Ordered my wig today
This is the one I've decided to go with

I has a dress (Posted 10th August 2011)

As the title says, the base of the dress has now been sewn together. If Im honest, I didnt think it was going to fit, I thought it would need a piece adding in the side, but it does fit AND needs nipping in at the waist (bonus)
Now, I need to add on the belt loops and buttons and we're well on our way to having a completed costume, minus the wig, which I'll be buying once I clear my overdraft!

Also, Sy's Faust trousers are now looking to have taken shape. The dark blue strips need moving slightly, and the light blue one making a little smaller as they're huge, but otherwise, I think they're gonna look pretty neat too.

Basic Shapes (Posted 25th July 2011)

Today I've had just enough time to get the basic shapes of this costume cut out.

Now all that needs doing is sewing together and then the detailing can begin!

FINALLY. Some Progress (Posted 20th July 2011)

So, today, after much procrastination I finally got round to making a start on Eliza.
I haven't done much, I've only cut out the paper patterns. But on Monday when I get back to it I'll cut the fabric out and hopefully get the basic shapes cut out.
