wig (Posted 22nd May 2012) here is my wig, i made the hair band out of some old hair things that i had |
|
complete costume!!! (Posted 14th May 2012) yay ive finished! all i need to do is style the wig. here is some piccys but im not wearing all of the accessories. missing wig, contacts, bag/belt and other bracelet |
|
bowblade progress (Posted 14th May 2012) not took many photos of this dad has been helping, i wanted to make it transform but very difficult. |
|
gloves complete (Posted 7th May 2012) i finally finished my gloves!!! i made the pink sleeves seperate and added the extensions to the gloves |
|
stocking complete (Posted 7th May 2012) here thet are completed! the gold wings are made out of pink suede that i painted gold with fabric paint and then sewed on, they are a tiny bit too long which is why they look a little bit baggy around my knee. i will play around with then a bit to make them better. |
|
stocking progress 2 (Posted 7th May 2012) next i sewed on the other details arounf the tops and bottom of the stockings. i then painted the zig zag pattern on the gol strip |
|
stocking progress (Posted 7th May 2012) i started making my stocking by cutting out a pattern on paper that was the right size to my leg, i did front and back pieces, i then sewed the ribbon down the leg. |
|
bag progress complete (Posted 4th May 2012) i finally added the rest of the details with some parts i had lying around. all thats left to do is make the belt for it |
|
bag progress 3 (Posted 4th May 2012) gold! i started to glue the nice gold streamers onto the bag with hot glue |
|
bag progress 2 (Posted 4th May 2012) i put some nice brown buffolo fabric around the bottom of the bag and then sewed it all together on the machine |
|
front plate complete! (Posted 4th May 2012) i spray painted the fimo gold and then painted the craft foam black, the i super-glued it altogether! now just to attach to the dress |
|
front plate remake (Posted 4th May 2012) i was not happy with that front plate, so i decided to remake it, i made the raised detail out of fimo on top of a piece of craft foam |
|
Dress progress (Posted 22nd April 2012) i hand stitched the side panels on, next job is to add the details |
|
side panel progress 4 (Posted 22nd April 2012) finally i hand painted over my sketch with black fabric paint |
|
side panel progress 3 (Posted 22nd April 2012) i then free hand drew the pattern on with a marker pen |
|
side panel progress 2 (Posted 22nd April 2012) next i added the burgandy edging, i had to do this in sections to make it rounded |
|
side panel progress 1 (Posted 22nd April 2012) i made the toilet shape side panels with the white fabric 1st and then appliqued the gold edging on to it |
|
gloves progress (Posted 15th April 2012) i made the gloves using grey leather and then added the detail using white leather, black cotton and yellow pvc for the details, i still need to do the wrist parts |
|
dress details (Posted 15th April 2012) i decided to make the details out of some spare plastazote that i have, i cut out the basic shapes and then raised them using hot glue or 3-d paint by freehand drawing the pattern |
|
dress progress (Posted 15th April 2012) the base of the dress is now complete! i now need to add all the details |
|
dress progress ribbons (Posted 9th April 2012) those darn ribbons!! i bought lots of a wine coloured velvet ribbon for the decoration, pluse some light pink ribbon for underneath, it is near impossible sew two velvet pieces of ribbon together so i decided in the end just to use the wine coloured ribbon but zig-zag stitch along the edges with light pink cotton, it works well and looks good too! once i have finished sewing all on the ribbon on i will be able to add the zipper and take up the skirt as its not quite short enough at the moment |
|
dress progress (Posted 9th April 2012) once i finally made the base dress i started to sew on the pink |
|
dress progress (Posted 9th April 2012) AHHHH this dress is more complicated than i thought! i decided to buy a pattern for a mini strapless dress to help me make the dress but then i had to change alot of it to make the holes in the sides, here is the fabic i chose, its a faux velvet for the pink and a thick white satin for the base. |
|
progress - shoes 2 (Posted 9th April 2012) i made all the pieces on the sewing machine out of white leather for the bottom and light pink suede for the other pieces. i then tried to hand sew it on but its very difficult so i glued it all on instead lol |
