Maten Sutra complete! :) (Posted 21st July 2012) The sutra is complete now. I did a fabric layer underneath and then double folded it over and fabric glued it to the edges. I've varnished it with a matt finish varnish to prevent accidents involving rain or drinks. It lies nicely on the shoulders... I think the wallpaper was a good idea in the end, it gives it the right kind of weight and consistency, I think, but we'll see how it works with the finished outfit! |

Making the sutra (Posted 14th July 2012) I have finished making the central portion of the Maten Sutra. I decided to go with white wallpaper. The sutra's supposed to be paper (I think), and I would like it to have that kind of density (hopefully it won't rain!). The script I've written on it doesn't mean anything, it's really a collection of symbols that I made up as I went along, but it does the trick. I did have a good look at what was written in various official art, but it's mostly illegible sadly, so I've opted for this. with a dark green fabric overlay. I have yet to purchase the fabric, but I think that cotton or something a little heavier will do nicely. I'm still trying to work out how that's going to attach - I don't want it to end up with corners, but if I cut it as one long piece I run the risk of it not looking particularly neat. Hmmm. I'll buy the fabric first, I think, and then try a few things out. |

Ahh yay! Saiyuki cosplay is so hard to find! I get so excited over it! I can't wait to see this!
I should be there with a Hakkai too with any luck! Oooh, I saw your Goku cosplay on your profile. It's really fantastic. :)
Thank you so much! <3 If ever you wear Sanzo again I must try and get pictures with you. I shall see if I can get photos of you two as Sanzo and Hakkai~!
Totally! We shall make plans, I'm sure we can manage to coordinate our cosplays for an upcoming event. :)
Oh you made my inner Son Goku scream for dear life when I saw you! Awesome Job my dear ^_^
^_^ Thank you! It was awesome to meet you. :)
saiyuki cosplay is always great to see. really cool. your Sutra looks really good. I know when I made it for my friend I couldn't find any reference, so I just had to wing it.
