Picking up again. (Posted 5th January 2012) I am picking this costume up, once again. |
|
Progress~! (Posted 15th June 2011) Time; 2:3o P.M. Whhaaa~! Mask, zipper pull, braids, and shorts have been done. Hopefully this will be done next Thursday, but we shall see~. C: |

Entering panic-mode...NOW! (Posted 8th May 2011) Time; 6:o2 P.M. Only have about 45 to 46 days left! D: Not a thing has been done for this costume between school and other commissions stuff! _| ̄|○ Some plans have changed, also. So the alter red bathing suit (which will look just like Tao's undergarments, just with a red top) will be worn under the costume. Which seems more comfortable; so no complaining here~. (*´▽`*) |

Pattern idea for costume and help for stuffing the paws (please?). (Posted 18th April 2011) Time; 6:55 P.M. A rough sketch for an idea for what I should try out with the mock-ups. Ugh, right now if I want a good quality costume, it seems the hood will be about nine pieces. D: Hopefully the other costume pieces (coat, sleeves, etc.) will not have to have more pieces to them. Since at the moment the coat is about four pieces, and the paws only two (not counting the paw pad, claw openings, etc.). Also; halp?! I want to stuff the paws, but I am afraid to run into it yet. I will not have any invisible seams or hand slits in the sleeves for my hands. For I will have a group with me so they will unzip my coat for me when I need my hands. (I will have a tan body brace on with fake looking suspenders sewed on to look like Tao's real deal under the coat.) So It will look like I am showing off skin; when I am not. ;D Please comment and, or message me any info. |

Frabrics and threads. (Posted 17th April 2011) Time; 11:36 P.M. Materials for the costume. I am so happy that I found thread that matches the colors so well and for cheep, also. The fabrics are not to heavy, but they do hold a shape; which is perfect. Since I live in a dessert; so something like fleece in 1oo° weather = not fun. |

Comments
Hey if you need any help just PM me mew ^^ Tao is an excellent character I approve muchly :D
Ah~, thank you so much for the comment and the future help! x3 /clings to
Yes, I will need much help, so expect some PMs soon. > 3>;
<3 Looking forward to this! I'd help you with the whole stuffing the paw's but i've stuffed my paws and given myself no opening for my hands, i plan not so use my hands the whole day. (oh boy..) Stupid idea on my behalf i realize i have friends helping me throughout the day. Perhaps where the paw applique would be, put little pocket holes for you to put your hands through? then when you pull your hands back in it should rest nicely against the fabric as if no pocket was there if you make it just enough to put your hand and forearms through? just an idea i'm not sure how that'd play out.. Good luck!
Thank you for the comment and information! :3
And, and good luck! (I will need it.
I'm looking forward to seeing how you do this! Good luck!

But so far it is looking well.
