| CHEEK CHEEK CHEEK CHEEK I adore Escaflowne, and Dilandau is delightfully insane! 28/5/12 - Costume officially in progress due to the acquisition of a katana I will be modifying up for Dilandau's!! EDIT: Dilandau had a great reception at Ame, although some things will need to be touched up and sorted out for Expo when neko_riddles will be my Van (which means more variety of photos taken!) | |

COMPLETED (Posted 8th August 2012) Thank fuck |
 |
Gloves (Posted 4th August 2012) Made from stretch leather, and the red parts are craft foam covered in red stretch leather. They are hard as hell to put on and move my fingers in but they look good and I can still hold a sword, so yaaaaaay |
|
Also (Posted 19th July 2012) I've started the headband thingy, moulded it in shape just need to attach some wire into it (EVA foam) so it will keep it's shape definitely when PVAing and painting it! Got the purple gem for it all ready! |
 |
Start of shoulder armour as of yesterday (Posted 19th July 2012) This was the beginning, cardboard base stuck over saucepans the right width to keep in shape as I added expanding foam over them. They are currently still covered in foam curing and the next time I'm free for cosplay I will be attacking them with a craft knife and sandpaper! If for some reason it does pearshaped my back up plan is to use upholstery foam to build up the layers. |

Awesome work on the shoulders! ^__^
I'm just upset I never go to see this in action T_T
This is so amazing - must of taken forever to make :)
Surprisingly it took me about 3 weeks to get everything done :) It was pretty tough and there were times I wanted to give up and try again later but I didn't want to let everyone down XD
Aaah, Dilandau! The photos look great, well done for sticking with it. Will keep an eye out at Expo :)
This looks amazing! See? You need not have worried like you did after all! I'm proud of you! :D
Amy: Thank you! I'm glad you like it :D
Gemma: OH STAHP IT YOOOU <3
definitely one of your best cosplays by far =) cant wait to see it myself, oh and you know what, fabric choices were spot on in the end <3
Aww you think so >w< yeah I agree, one of my favourites definitely. Glad you like the fabric choices! Pleather made a lovely effect but it is tricky to work and a sauna to wear lmao!!
All that stress and being cooked in the costume was well worth it! You looked great as DillyDallyShillyShally :D
We forgot to have a Melzi for dinner when you were well cooked though, damn! ;P
Pahaha sorry, I would have been a bit too much on the fatty side XDDDD
