Getting there.. (Posted 17th July 2011) Pretty much everything is hemmed. I made a piece of the costume shorter and redid the hem. Just need to paint the hood, stitch it to the top layer, make and add shoulder pieces to the main top, finish painting the leggings, top layer and hood. ..and attach the bottom pieces to the under shirt. I decided to keep the short shirt as it is.. which means everyone can see my butt 8'3 I can already hear a certain someone yelling 'Silly Novice!' at me~ |
|
So far (Posted 12th July 2011) Every piece is stitched and painted. Still need to hem some bits and have tried on everything.. the hood might need to be altered but I'm debating weather to remake the shirt and shoulder piece or not... both are already painted and hemmed but the shoulder piece is too big while the shirt is too small. |
|
-- (Posted 1st July 2011) Ended up asking for help. I pulled on the leggings while assistance places masking tape over the leggings and painted the stripes. There are a few unwanted marks so I'll be buying white fabric paint tomorrow ^^ Also: When I pulled the leggings off some of the paint stuck on my skin so I now have stripey legs! 8D I know I'm terrible .u. |
|
- (Posted 28th June 2011) Found some black material that will be used like a mask and some decent boots (Not perfect but good enough) and started to paint the leggings. ..and fucked up already. D: They're currently stretched over a piece of cardboard (I say stretched but these are loose over the material) with messed up stripes. I'm also aiming to get this all done alone since I'm fed up of always needing help. :/ And if I'm always like that I'll be fucked in uni.. bleh. |
