You could even make buckles with some sculpey, paper clay, or hell… some foam.

My legs frickin' HURT like all hell after walking in sandals alllll day =_=;; GOD I hate them… Sure had fun though, if we weren't such penny pincher's we totally should have gotten some cotton candy for you!!! I love my feather xD OHHH You need to upload that video of us too xD The belly dancer one.. oh yes.. it's great.. xD I'm sooo going to hell.
NUUU no video . . . NO belly dancer .. . . the world should not have to suffer the way I did . . . .
anyway thankies for letting me go with you coral . . . I had a blast just about as much fun as ikkicon. . .
Im totaly gonna try to roll with that Idea I mentioned sunday. . .
-
coral, i think your cosplays look fine. ^_^ what's up with the feather though? lol that is so something luffy would do though.
so what did all the people at the Ren. fair think, there being people dressed up as anime charicters? lol I should do that. XD
OOOH the feather LOL >< well my sis kept seeing some AMAZING Renn Fair attendants with hats with feathers and she wanted one in her hat and there was a shop that actually sold feathers AND had a red one! Well we couldn't resist and it seemed like something Luffy might do as silly as it was… that feather is freaking awesome O_O I should've bought a white one to stick in my TB Usopp hat >> the feather I have looks... like it's sickly and dieing... LOL
and er we got recognized by two people, one being a younger girl who probably liked anime, and one an older man who actually flat out asked us if anyone had recognized us ^^ there was some random emo kid running around in an Organization 13 coat... with blue jeans and sneakers but... well I guess he kinda tried, and some kid with a '300' shield.
It was pretty fun ^^ thank you guys for the compliments and Youshi! I hope the cape came out ok! It sounds like you guys got alot done ^__^

Last sunday at approx. 17:30 pm, I saw Luffy and Nami (both in Alabasta outfit) in Essen, near the catholic city church (at least I believe it was the catholic city church) in the pedestrian precinct.
Was that coincidentally someone from this board?

Did you take pictures?
-
I bring…cosplay progress!
!
I am thinking about scaling the paws down a little so they aren't so crammed in there.
-
not exactly cosplay, but my friend and I were having fun last night. We tested out my ears for my hiruma cosplay, and then it just evolved. She's kinda into vampires. lol
!
-
OH MY GOD.. i cannot WAIT To see this Hiruma cosplay.. OH MY GOD.. he's sooo freakin' awesome xD The ears look great, and I don't know why but I LOVE those gloves O_O
-
UGH.
Paw Prints officially are the bane of my existance. I've been sewing them on for the past four hours; I don't know WHY it seems to be taking so long to get these bastards on the damn jacket.
-
After NINE hours straight of work on this damn thing, I'm done for the evening. Will finish it tomorrow and start on the pants.
SO tired of sewing right now!
-
Lookin' good, babe!! I can tell you are working hard on that Kuma jacket! <3
and omg I love those ears for Hiruma, CU!
-
Did you take pictures?
No, I was in a bit of a hurry and just saw them when it was too late, so I hoped with a description of the both, maybe someone answered. Nami was carrying a clumsy Clima Tact, Luffy had a Strawhat Jolly Roger over his right shoulder.
-
Honestly I don't think we have any One Piece cosplayers from Germany on these boards. But I could be wrong or someone could have just been visiting Germany or something. I dunno.
-
Hey Bri! I will be online tonight around 10. I will probably be a bit distracted as I need to work on Perona and the my part of the panel for ACEN! I had to take the lace off Perona's sleeve because I was apparently stupid while sewing it on. XD Plus I need to dye more of the lace and scallop the edge of the skirt. Should I make the capelet? Or do you think I can get away with out it? I think this is my order of Priority: 1. Finish the shirt. 2. Finish the skirt. 3. Make the crown. 4.Make the capelet. I am also debating on whether or not to just buy a Red umberella to hold during the photoshoot. XD Ugh so much to do and I have only one more day off before ACEN. Long nights are ahead of me.
-
i've pretty much given up all hope of finding teeth at this point. the only other thing i can think of is asking my dental assistant cousin in calgary when i go to visit the weekend before.
-
Kuma Hat is like…40% done. Pants are in the wash after being dyed. Wig is styled and awaiting hat.
Jacket hasn't been touched all day because I wanted to make the cute bear ears. >_>
-
Hey, does anyone know of a really good way to make a Luchador Mask? I think my sis and I SHOULD be able to figure it out, but just incase I thought I'd check with you guys and see if you knew of a place. I don't want to buy a mask since most of them cover everything on the face but the mouth and eyes, and since this is for Burgess of the BB Crew, his doesn't cover is whole face.
Anyways, any help would be totally appreciated, thanks in advance if anyone gets back to me ^__^
-
Maybe you can find a partial mask on eBay and use it as a pattern? It's possible!
Anyway, here's Kuma pictures! I had to guess about the pants; there were no pictures of his pants in color from Thriller Bark that I could find. So I made them match the hat.
!
Then, a picture of PirateNeko's Usopp cape and not-yet-done overalls.
!
Annnnd…
This awesome friend that an internet friend made me for my birthday!
!
-
Those are cute bear ears!
And now I wish PirateNeko was coming to ACEN. I need a TB Usopp!
Since people are wanting wig pictures…
!
!
!I need to straighten it some more. Also you can totally see my Gwen Cooper/Nico Robin wig on one side and my Jo wig on the other side. Plus there is a wig in a bag still that you can somewhat see in the picture.
-
Charli hun, that looks great!! Can't wait to see it on you in person!! <3!!!
Omni I love that wig! <3! I want to see your Perona so badly!
Anyways, some progress pics and such…
Me as Usopp... still incomplete obviously, but I was trying the nose and wig on as I was stirring the overalls in the dye...
And also, I finished my sister's Perona boots…. She wanted them a bit higher, like just below the knee, which turned out fine...
Here she is posing in the boots before I cut them....
Finished!
-
gyah I'm so behind x__x; heh…
Youshi I think your Kuma is gonna look GREAT ^^ I'm glad you got so much done I'm sure that it leaves you alot less to worry about since the con is approaching FAST!
also O_O OMFG PirateNeko... that wig is SO much more aweosme than mine ;__; where did you get it? it's the perfect curly Usoppness and the nose looks GREAT heh >< reminds me of what my nose used to look like before it was caked with a ton of make up... LOL
Good luck with the overalls and OMFG those boots are looking awesome O_O I wish I had stuff to take pictures of >3> LOL waaaaaah -
huggles Misty ^3^
D'aww thank you!!! That means a lot coming from an AMAZING Usopp cosplayer like yourself ;3;
Actually the wig is a cheap ass pirate wig from a Halloween store… We had to cut it down and de-tangle it a bit, but it seems to work!Yeah, I still wish I could cosplay Perona so I could wear those boots e_e;
-
omg really?? but it looks so good O_O I love its' curly ness! Plus you'll have a bandanna AND a hat over it most likely so nobody will see what it looks like without that though it does look good to me O_O and dawww >//> I don't feel amazing… I just enjoy cosplaying LOL
and... I wish I could cosplay as Perona too those boots are freaking AWESOME O_O but I'd be just as happy to see pictures of a Perona cosplayer heh ^^also I forgot to say O_O Youshi those paw prints are ADORABLE <3 I want one now... LOL >< and yes... hand sewing is a BITCH ... my silly Chopper hat was completely entirely hand sewn x_x; I know your pain... LOL
-
Holy shit you hand sewed that entire hat?! Wow….
And if I could find a picture of what the wig looked like before Charli cut it..... which I just tried, but alas... maybe I can show you the packaging I still have, the guy posing in it looks retarded lol! -
I bring you more wig pictures! This time f my jrocker Hideki. This is a wig (or actually wigs.) that I have sewn together and modified myself. It was my first time modding wigs to such an extent and I am quite proud of myself. Right now it is just the finished pictures. I will post the before and during pictures later.

Looking good, omnichild! Did you sew the pink wefts into the blonde wig? (:
-
You should really think about resizing those, it's a little hard to tell what I'm looking at.
-
@ Klayr: No I didn't sew any wefts. I actually combined two wigs together. I placed the blonde wig on top of the pink and then pulled the pink wig through the netting of the blonde. Thanks!
@ Junkee: Fixed.
-
Ah cool. I don't know who it's for, but I like the pink. It's a really cute wig. :3
-
wow, that wig doesn't look too bad actually. maybe i should try that.
and neko, why do you make sucj an awsome usopp! no really. omg. your perfect.
-
Some Perona progress!
Shirt: I had to resew on the lace because the first time (not counting the time I taped it on. XD) I was apparently drunk. One sleeve turned out ok, although I miscalculated the amount of lace I needed and one set ended up being a bit short. And then the other side, I didn't place the two pieces of lace far enough apart. I also still need to put the lace up at the bust area and put the picture on the front. Oh and I should probably actually sew the hem on the bottom otherwise Bri will eat me. The pictures are all from before I had resewn the lace.
Skirt: I need to scallop out the bottom and then add on the lace (Do you guys also think that is lace on there or am I just crazy?)

!@ junkee: The wig is for Hideki, who is part of Laladei. Don't worry, you will have never heard of him as he doesn't actually exist. Some other people and I decided to make our own fantasy jrock band. Hideki is the flamboyount and flirtacious second guitarist/ back up vocals.
@ Captain Usopp: Trust me, it takes a long time to make! I worked on it three to six hours each day for a week. My fingers hurt! I haven't put it on yet, so I don't know how it will fit yet!
-
Go Omni xD I can't wait to see this done, it's looking pretty good so far :3

Thanks! I am really nervous about wearing it though, I wish I could lose like fifty pounds by next week and have a nice flat stomach! But that of course is all wishful thinking.
-
Maybe you could wear a tight flesh colored shirt underneath? That may help if you're embarrassed about a little middle bulge. :3

lol I am actually going to do just that…well sorta. I am going to either buy a corset or try binding my stomach a little. XD
-
Ah that's cool. I wish I could offer more help with stomach binding ideas, but the only thing that comes to mind is maybe compression shirt? But then you'd have no boobies for Perona. XD
-
Um, yet another question from me (that seems to be all I'm doing, and I apolagize), this time about a different costume, since I abandoned my Lucci attempt. This time I'm a fairy for my convention I'm going to, and I was wondering about spray in hair color for my costume. Is it a good choice, since I can't possibly get a wig in time, and I'm not allowed to dye my hair? I've heard lots of people say no, but they never explain why. I've worn it once before at Halloween and it turned out great, but still people say no, for some reason.
-
I am dirty blonde and used temp die to die my hair black last year. it was virtually back to normal within a week. within a few days it was mostly out.
I think more people just perfer dealing with wigs rather than their own hair. I don't think one or the other is better. it's just preference.
-
I'm not allowed to dye my hair because we're coming home a day later, and on Monday I have school, and I can't be at school with blue hair.
Oh, so theres nothing bad about it other than it makes your hair feel stiff? Because thats the only bad thing I could find about it.
-
hair spray makes your hair stiff. hair dye just colors it. and if you can't dye it, and you can't get a wig, then your kinda stuck, arn't you. unless you just shave it all off the next day and say you had cancer on the weekend or something.
-
Thank you so much! That helped me decide that I'd rather spray my hair then leave it. Besides, even if I could dye my hair, my mom wants me to save my money up for things I can buy at the convention.
-
I think the reason people don't like spray in hair color is because it gets all over your clothing. I wore pink in my hair once, and wore a black shirt, and by the end of the day, my black shirt was hot pink.
It was pretty…bad.
So be careful!
-
Oh, well, it didn't get on my clothes when I wore it at halloween, do you think maybe it only sticks to certain fabrics? Because I had my hair sprayed with three different colors that night and none got on my costume.
-
I was wearing a cotton polo shirt. Hm. It's gotten on everything I've worn it with.
Odd.
-
So I didn't finish everything 100%, but I did get a good amount done. All I have to do to Kyra's sword is put the red binding on the hilt and hope that the gold end-piece I made with sculpey will go on there without breaking. Yes, I managed to make all the gold end pieces to the swords that had em, along with the details on Yubashiri. All with sculpey. I baked them in the oven for like 15 minutes… They seemed to turn out ok, I'm just afraid they won't go on the swords right.
It also didn't help that today was hot as hell, my allergies acted up really bad and when I was working in the garage, I was getting eaten up by mosquitoes T_T not fun....
progression pics...
!
Kyra's Kuukaku sword…
Climatact…
Working on details with sculpey… man that stuff sticks to your hands >_<
Scabbards painted, Wadou is about halfway finished there…
Wondering if there is an effective way to smooth these out….?
-
Those swords are totally awesome.
-
you know neko, if you have time, i bet you could make a bunch and sell them at anime cons. People would buy those up so fast. and you could charge a pretty penny for them. $30-40 I bet.
-
Good job Neko! Those look fantastic!
