u may got something there
-
Since you'll be barechested, I don't want to use a harness of some sort unless we really have to. The only reason I'm getting away with a harness is because I have to wear something over my top.
Anyone else in the thread have any tips for Sills' wings?
(OH Sills! Get on AIM some time today. I'll send you reference pics!)
-
hold up i will in a sec
-
Ooh, you guys are planning a Skypiea group? (: I did one at Akon two years ago~

@Youshi:
I was living in California at the time, actually. I went to Fanime and AX that year, but I wasn't into One Piece yet. 2006, right?
Yes, I am gonna be Eneru! I found a site that has a great tutorial for wing harnesses that I think I'm going to modify and use, but I love any advice and tips!
Also, I am going to use a hula hoop (lol) for the hoop, but I'm a little lost on how to make the drums lightweight. I want to make them look perfect, to look like real drums, but sturdy and light.
As for the manchest…I don't have the mad skills that JM has when it comes to chest shirts like her Jyabura one, but I do have a nice tutorial for turning a nude leotard into a manchest that looks very nice. It's just painting and shading.
I'll try to post a picture of it. =)
I live in California, well, all the time! 8D I was at Fanime that year, too~ I was Shanks. :>
Basically what our Ener did was take a hula hoop (like you!) and affixed a… hm, I don't know how to describe it exactly, but it was a thick piece of leather, about... seven, eight inches across, folded over and the sides clamped shut. Then, someone held the hoop up so that the leather was against her back and she bound her chest with it underneath. The effect was really great - you could tell she was binding, but the hoop looked badass. 3
The drums... hm, I don't know what to tell you there. Craft foam, maybe? :x
Hah! JM's manchest was the hit of the con, I swear it got more action than anybody else there. XD~ Please do post yours, when you get it done!

Hey guys, i thought I would post my progress on my cosplay for AX. It took a whole monthe basically to get where i am from scratch, but I present to you a 80% UNLIMITED ZORO and Shusui 75%.

klayr:
I only lived in California for about a year, in SoCal, actually. That year I was….Lupin III/Sailor Neptune. Nothing to write home about, anyway.
How your Eneru did her hoop is about the same way that a friend of mine did hers as well!
It'll be a while before I can start work on that; at least a month, so it gives me time to brainstorm.
Thanks for the tips! And I think we're gonna try for Anime Expo next year!
EDIT: Whoo, Omni, those drum kits are sweet! Maybe I can find them cheaper somewhere else! But how to cut holes in the side for the hoop? And make sure they're the right size?
-
um maybe instead of cutting the drum. Buy a hoop bigger than what you had originally planned and then place the drums where they will go and then cut out that section of the hoop and then glue those two ends of the hoop to the drum?

[qimg]http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y120/InterstellarHero/100_3182.jpg[/qimg]oh wow that looks amazing so far!! I am jealous of how much more accurate it looks than mine already. Are you keeping it black? Because I am debating on repainting mine black….
And this coming from the resident Zoro fangirl... Holy shit that cosplay is looking HOT so far!! <3
-
Omni:
I actually found the perfect size of frame over on eBay in the perfect darker brown shade. Woot! And a place that sells inexpensive rawhide covers for drums! Thanks for giving me the idea; PirateNeko says that she can probably help me cut small holes in the sides with a dremmel tool.
I'm excited now; I hope everything turns out well. I always feel like when I tackle a big project, something will turn out subpar. I just have to take my time!
MoonNeko, Coral, you guys up for an Anime Expo trip next year! >3
-
Good luck Youshi! I can't wait to see how it turns out!
-
ahh crickey, request for that full body shot of you as cindry ^^
-
am i invited to go to anime expo with yall
-
If you can afford it, Sills. =) I think we'll be taking a plane!
Get on AIM for your references! I been waiting all day!
(OME I hate children. They're throwing their basketball against my wall outside and yelling really loudly. IT'S MIDNIGHT!!)
-
You're welcome and good luck~! X3
-
Damn I really want to do Law but there is no Color of him yet lol Should I just go Black and white and hope for the best? XP
-
@PirateNeko: Im actually gonna do the details into the sword. I already picked out the colors, Royal Blood Red for the Insignia on the sheaths and Light Lilac for the edge of the sword. And I might rust and break, the Yubashiri sword I have for respects (might)

i cant get pn my computer is down. i am having to use my wii.

Boy, we had a really good Eneru on the forums a while ago. I think it was before you got here… She doesn't really post here all the often though. I think Her Name was Kaya-chan. If you ask herm she might be able to give you some tips.
-
Kaya-chan! Yes, that's my friend whom I mentioned!
She's in Japan right now, though. =)
-
Dumping the rest of this last month's Skypiea and Thriller sets, have a preview.
!
-
Cactusmomma, the scenery with the cross is so fitting in that second picture, and gorgeous! Way to find a perfect place to pose!
-
Thanks!
I'd like to take Omni and her boyfriend Chris over there when they come up next for some corrected TB goodness (now that anime colors are out and Oda went nuts with Nami's jewelry). The place is a historic family crypt with this huge meditation garden on top. I love the place for it's gothicy feel, but it doesn't scream graveyard, so no one can get huffy about it being a family resting place.
Let's just hope our girls don't get bored in the area when we do the little Robin/Nami picnic.
-
Okay peoples!! If there's any Ultimate Muscle fans out there and maybe.. JUST maybe someone knows of this series..maybe.. Here's a pic of my newest cosplay xD Spoiled because it's not One Piece and honestly.. it's not done yet and I just feel like posting SOMETHING since I'm soo proud of it T__T My sis worked sooo freakin' hard on it and there's no way to pay her back but draw her yaoi pictures while she sews xD LMFAO
!
edit
Sorry, I haven't posted any cosplay progress in ages..forgot how to do the spoiler tag xD LMFAO my sis walked me through it like I was a retard, but I am, so it's okay thanks sisand btw.. those are my Paulie boots. Wootness.
-
Haha, I totally need to be suplexed while you're wearing that, MoonNeko. I'll wear a dress or skirt, for the lulz.
Seriously, I love where it's going so far. <3
-
You know, I was just thinking of hoffy, in that yellow dress again…you were trying to cosplay Asuka, weren't you hoffy. :) very nice.
-
Hoffy.. there's no way my pitiful arms can life anyone xD LOL But.. if we can find a way to imitate that pose without me actually lifting you, that would rock. Then I'll look up your dress :3 Sooo appropriate XD LMFAO Glad you like it soo far, my sis will be very happy ;3

Got my Bellemere haircut again yesterday .o.
Too bad Im going away fr 2 weeks to the Solovki Archipelago tomorrow. After that I should start working on a Bellemere cosplay! I
m still unsure about ripping all the cool details off Senriku… Or should I just buy another gun? Or probably just have Bellemere with Senriku XD A-anyway.

I love your Brook Klayr xD I've been waiting to see that mask since I heard from you guys a while back that it was gonna be EPIC XD And your Cindry is gorgeous, damn her and her beauty T__T is obviously quite jealous xD
And thankfully it appears in your 5 inch platforms that you didn't sprang an ankle xD My sis had like.. 6 inch plateforms for a costume and she fell down some stairs.. I mean, I laughed cause it was funny.. thankfully she was Okay xD dies She'll kill me when she reads this comments.. xD
-
Thanks again, MoonNeko! <3 <3 <3 I know, our Cindry was so gorgeous, and can you even believe that that was her first girl cosplay ever? You'll be seeing her again soon, as our Bellamy in the Jaya Arc shoot we did. (: I know you're looking forward to seeing that, as well~
Actually, I did quite well in my platforms! They were really comfortable and easily to walk around in. That one photo of me lying on the ground, however, I had to be helped up. XD!
-
Oh wow, that's ironpuncher! Ha, that's cool! Small world! You guys look like you had a lot of fun!
Was your Brooke costume hot? Our Brooke nearly had severe heatstroke! I hope you were okay! (That was…Fanime?)
