LOL that last pic is priceless!! You make a great Luffy!
Ahahahha CKOanime, the expressions are priceless. Absolutely great idea.
Hahahaa I LOVE the expression eyes. That was a great idea, awesome XD
Thank you guys. I just found out how to do this multiple quote thing haha.
If you don't mind me asking, how did you do the scar? Also, awesome job on the shirt! I still need to figure out what I'm doing for my shirt. Thinking that I'll modify a red dress shirt, but I won't look too hard for anything until next weekend
I got the typw of skin color makeup from a costume shop along with rigid collidion . I first made a stencil so that way it can be easy to have the scar made.
Progress ho! Well kinda. I bought shoes for my Laki cosplay a couple months ago and was just too lazy until now to upload them. Also recieved my Ada (pandora Hearts) shoes in the mail the other day. They are fantastic and I can't wait for my PH photoshoot in May.
One thing I find crazy about the shoes is the sizing. The heels are a 7.5 and the flats are a 9. Both fit me. Well the 7.5 is a perfect fit, while the 9's are slightly big. But normally I wear an 8.5 and those shoes only came in whole sizes and the 8's were too small. lol oh my feet are weird. And enough rambling, picture time!

They're GORGEOUS Omni!!!! OH MAN.. those black and white heals.. SOO AMAZING __

Thanks for the info. I might have to try that rigid collidion stuff out. It sounds interesting and not too difficult to use. The makeup part might be a little harder, to try and get the right color. Do you happen to know how well the rigid collidion stays on? Don't want it peeling off or anything halfway through the day. Also do you know how much I would actually need of it? I see 1 oz bottles and .25 oz bottles online.
My friend's neighbor unfortunately wasn't home yesterday, but he left a message for her. I'm hoping to have a backup plan just to be safe :D
I just wanted to wish everyone the best of luck on any costumes you are working on!
I've been sort of a failure of actually working on my own stuff and there is only one month to go ;o;

your going to sakuracon right? yeah I've been super lazy myself. I need to hurry up >_<
Hey, can anyone help me figure out what type of shoes Catarina Devon is wearing? I can't seem to find a good match on ebay =/

Yepp. I got most of both my costumes done, I'm just missing easy key parts. Like the pants & undershirt on Luffy Oyabun and the crown for Ivankov.
Gotta get myself in gear!

From the picture on her wikia page, this seems the closest to me http://www.6pm.com/magdesians-amalia-r-black-stretch-nappa It seems like the kind of thing you could find at a Goodwill store if you have on nearby. I know the one by my house had a couple very similar to this.
In some of the shots it looks like it has no back though, so then it would be a mule like this pair, http://cgi.ebay.com/Black-Leather-Slip-Mules-Clogs-Heel-Shoes-7-/380325118743?pt=US_Women_s_Shoes&hash=item588d24c317 Hopefully one of these is similar to what you are looking for!
I wonder if these would work?

They have a bit of a purple tone to them, but if I decided to go for the purple pants look, then they might be ok. however, I still would rather do the red pants.
CatMonster: I think they would. Plus flats are comfy and always an excellent idea. Is there a particular picture you are using for reference?
Mostly the manga page where she first appears, there's an almost full body shot of her.
Nothing is done, the collar isn't attatched, the shirt isn't hemmed. The tattoo is missing and I haven't made my eyelashes, but my wig came and I had to try it out.
!
@Kitsch
hahaha love it.
Hee! Haw!
Brilliant!! Can't wait to see the whole thing, Kitsch!
Heehaw indeed! Looks great.
You're doing the clothes he wears in that cover with Dragon, right?
Areebee: Exactly! My friend is doing Dragon. His shirt will be pink. We are very excited! We also bought elephant watering cans. They are so cute!~
Thanks for kind words everyone! I was having a bit of a moment feeling like it wasn't going to work well.
That's one of my favorite covers. Can't wait to see it finished!
Hey, official invitation to post outside this stench filled section with everyone else.
You'll have fun!
Hey, official invitation to leave people alone and don't post anymore on this forum!
We'll have fun!
I'm heading up to Cactusmomma's this weekend for some stitch'n and bitch'n. I'll mostly be bitch'n as my body is being used for two different fittings and even if it wasn't I don't have any fabric I need to work on my stuff. But my hubby will be working on stuff. So you'll see progress eventually. XD
Bought fabric for Blackbeard's coat today, as well as fabric for the sash, figured since I'm doing Alina's version of Devon, she'll have the yellow sash too. Saves me money anyway, lol. I almost did not buy them because I wanted to use my 50% off coupon on the most expensive fabric, but they were already on sale, so the coupon was no good. I talked the cashier into letting me use it this once. Saved like $20 =3
I'm trying to figure out a nice way to mount Ivankov's crown on my fro. I initially was going to just stitch it to the wig and call it good, but I wasn't really thinking. That would cover about the crown and also isn't really accurate, since his sits on the top of that magical hair. Any ideas on how I might do it? Wire was about the only thing I could think of and even then a good mounting system is eluding me. :/
Been working on a Piplup gijinka for my daughter. I am mostly pleased with how it is turning out. The bottom of the romper could have turned out better, but meh for a noob sewer/cosplayer like me I am pleased.
OMG she's looking so adorable Omni!! OMG she looks so slim and tall xD
!
A kind of last minute project before Sakuracon. I've had the wig lying around for months after a dye experiment going from neon pink to a nicer dark pink. Originally a Bonney wig, I used it as a learning project for chopping, dying, and styling. Overall I'm pleased with the results and I hope to finish the rest of the costume for the convention next week.
@coral: lol she is slim and tall! 50 pounds at 4.1 feet. And she just keeps growing. I can't wait till Otakon, when we meet you guys and you and your sis stand next to her. I will probably die laughing. XD <3
@ Kitsch: good job!
If Naoko feels like she's heavy/big at all, once she meets us, the linebacker twins, she will feel SOO much better about herself xD LMAO!!!! She's soo adorable. Damn her and her cuteness, DAMN HER..shakes fist
@Kitsch Oh man, that wig looks freakin' amazing O_O I'm guessing it's for Bellamere? and if not, I can't think of a soul other than her it could be for xD LOOKS SOO AMAZING, those sideburns O_O
peers back into the newly formed forums of AP/cosplay
@hopelessecko: lol luckily she doesn't ever feel bad about her looks. She is actually a little full of herself…
@Kaizoku: About time you got your butt back in here!
Ladies and Gentlemen… he is done... I give you, Eustass Captain Kid!
!
I've wanted to cosplay him for awhile, and now he's done. I have some minor things about him to fix, but that shouldn't be a problem~
Naoko's piplup is almost done! Yay! Just the feet and buttons left.
I also started her Lisanna. I need to do the collar and front trim. Then some hemming.
Eeee Kidd looks awesome, iMustang <3 And Piplup is too cute, Julie ;A; I wish I was going to Acen to see all of Naoko's adorablenessssss, cant wait to see the princess peach/daisy pictures!!!
iMustang: Those giraffe pants are amazing! Love your kid :3
omnichild: The piplup is so cute! She is so well suited for gijinka XD Kinda makes my super cutesy gijinka I'm going to wear this weekend seem awkward. XD I feel like you are a pro at throwing together her costumes! They always look so nice and well done.
@Arei: I just wish you were going to ACen, so we could hang out again. T.T
@Kitsch: -blush- Thank you so much! I am totally not good at making costumes at all though! You should see them in person, they don't look as nice. XD But her cosplays are my sewing practice. XD
Naoko is just too adorable, Omni!
BTW, I'm going to try going to Acen next year, planning on setting up an art table there. How good is the artist alley there anyway?
It's pretty decent! They put it before the dealer's hall, so people get to see everything on their way in.
So much progress has been made..just have to do the collar and cuffs on Daisy.
@CatMonster:

It is freakin AMAZING. AMAZING AMAZING. The stuff here hardly compares. Their dealers room/artist alley is unbelievably massive XD
It seems a couple of my friends that went with me last year are interested in going again next year, and even more people are wanting to go, so I can't wait for next year XD It will be a blast~
And Eeee~ cactusmomma I cannot wait to see the girls in those outfits <333 They will be the cutest kids at the con!!
So far, they have plans to do Daisy/Peach, Karin/Sakura, and Lisanna/Cana together.. I'm going to start putting costume progress shots of what's done once photobucket coops.
Sweet, so we will make sure to go next year! I hope to have way more buttons and artwork done by then. I already started drawing up timeskip OP buttons.
Cactusmomma, those are ADORABLE!! The colors look so good! I can't wait to see pics of the girls wearing them <3
@cat: OMG! That would be so exciting if you came to ACEn next year! We would have to plan a cosplay group or something. gkajlkajdglk Hahaha I already have cosplays planned for next year and I am not even close to finished with this years. XD
Lisanna's collar is on now. But before I can do more of her, I need a zipper. So instead I made a hat!
This is the start of my Dawn/Hikari (pokemon) cosplay to go with my daughter's Piplup. The wig is my unstyled Juvia wig. although I think that colour works nicely for Dawn, so I might have to buy another one. So all I really have of Dawn is the hat without its designs. XD But really I don't have a con in mind for Dawn, so I don't really care. XD
You have a nice face why did you warp it XDDD
Haha cause I had on no makeup and am breaking out really bad from all the babies touching my face.

I'm really excited too! My friend that is doing the art table with me is actually from around there. I'd love to do KOF again, or OP, doesn't matter.
Well I decided to be unlazy and take a picture of my minor Lisanna progress. Which is sewing on the collar. Guys..Guys…you don't even know how ridiculously proud I am of this collar. I had no idea how to sew it on or anything. Some minor imperfections but omg! yay me! Although hot pink thread would have been a better choice that light pink thread....especially since I can't sew straight lines very well...
3 weeks woman! Get crackin'!
Just finished this for Naoko. Rai's Sakura shirt is being given an extra panel in the back*.
*Swear to god, these kids.. I fit it to her last night, fit great. Try it on her today, 6 inches too tight. WTF?
your image is really cool :wub:
