I thought about choosing a cosplay.

PROGRESSION: EXCELENT

Not sure you can really call it progress, bit the really final and instrumental piece of Grimmjow arrived in the mail and after some fitting and trimming, fits nicely.

And to post some progress. Finished making my Fighter gloves. Now all that's left is to finish EDG's Gunner costume and I'm ready for PMX!! OH BABY!~

Finally finished this wig. I tried to do what one anon said about fluffing the curls, which should not have been an issue... Man, those curls had a mutiny to the point where I had to pull the glue off of the fibers and re-pig tail the left side. I tried. They fought the good fight and I gave up.

>>5129323
Those bows are perfect.
Don't fret, Anon, you did amazing~~~

>>5129323
What is this for, it is GLORIOUS.

>>5129323
Holy crap, that wig is amazing!

>>5129323
HOLY crap, anon! Are those.. can you do magic? Those are the most perfect hair bows I've EVER seen.

>>5129323
I just came everywhere. Are you a wizard?

Finally I finished my Little sister dress! I started it early this year and now I'm glad it's done. I'm pretty happy how it came out. I know, Eleanor has short braids, I don't know how to braid my hair to make it look shorter.

>>5129638
I have no idea what Little Sister is, but that dress is adorable.

>>5128899
Sweet jesus...

>>5129638
Its adorable, but its to clean...and not ripped at all. Especially a white dress should have the stains and such that the patterned and darker dresses have in the games

Hey seagulls, I'm going to the Texas Renaissance Festival next weekend and a friend and I bought cool masks at the mall for the very occasion.
However, we don't know what to do.
The mask I got is silver and gold, and my friend's is purple, gold, white and maybe a little green (same style as the pic)
Suggestions? :c

>>5129823
Eleanor's dress is pretty clean, and it's the only withe dress in the game. You can see the difference from the Neca figures

>>5129895
derp, forgot pic

This is my Desmond(AC:Brohood) progress so far, I think it's altogether now and I need a haircut.

>>5129638
Hooray Bioshock and ooh it is very nice, I like it muchly!

>>5129823
I agree, even if just some subtle dusting.

>>5129323
I don't know what this is for but this is awesome.

>>5129909
nice

Forgot that I had finished this, sorta. I think I'm going to add some snaps on the inside of the jacket. But the buttons and epaulettes are attached. Now to finish the wig.

>>5129638
thats pretty sick dude

>>5129638
oh sweet babies
that dress fits you pretty well

I've been working on my Wanda costume for a post-Halloween party tomorrow but I ran out of time to finish the wig (specifically the bangs). I pinned them in a curl for the time being. However, do you think this looks good enough for con-wear too? Or like a cop-out? I'm just afraid of messing the bangs up if I do style them :[

>>5129339
>>5129545
>>5129553
>>5129604
>>5129612
>>5129909

Wow anons, you guys made my morning. I really appreciate the complements. I wish I was a wizard, but I made this with my feeble mortal hands.

To answer the question of what it's for, it's for a costume I'm designing for myself. I don't have the sewing done yet, so I can't show you.

The pic is the inspiration for the wig. Again, thanks guys for the complements.

>>5129638
Very nice! It could do with a thin pannier for that extra bit of non-floppiness, but other than that it looks great.
As for the braids, just do them further back so they fall behind your shoulders like the in the figure and it'll be fine.

Okay I am getting started on my cardcaptors cosplay! I dyed the fabric pink and got the patterns cut out, and finished the bow for the hat. before I can go any further, I need to get some interface and some lining fabric to finish the pink part of the dress and the hat
and with my Homura, I am working on patterning out that god forsaken collar of the black shirt she has under the white and gray shirt.

I'm retardedly happy that I can finally post in a progress thread. Back to the front page with you!

But yeah, I'm getting there. Slowly. I've smarten up and got curved needles and I bought another bottle of Motions Oil Spray. Hnng, it smells like almonds.

Got my fireball all wired up and ready to go!

...kinda, still need to figure out a way to get the flame looking more like it should and also a way to make the LED brighter...

>>5132263
you don't make LED's brighter, lowering the resistance too much will blow out the led, don't think "oh theres probably just a small chance of that..." NO, too little resistance they will blow and become useless

buy brighter leds that is the ONLY option

>>5132281
Was thinking a combination of brighter LEDs, a reflective plate under them, and more than just one.

Will need to let the paperclay dry for a few days before doing anything else, but...this mask is starting to creep me out...

got my hood and ears done for dog tier Jade. No make up in pic, sorry

>>5132422
Your sewing on the hood looks a bit weird, same goes for the ears. Are the ears even attached to your wig? I don't know if it's the picture but they look like they're just sitting on the hood to me. Also, I'd like to see a picture with makeup.

>>5132422
The ears need more fluff to them. Fix it I say!

Captcha: possibility humnte

>>5132457
They're on a headband. The hood is a lot bigger than I wanted and with the back parts that dangle it's heavy so I have to fix that.

They're just some crap ears I had till I find my white fur since I have a box of it I'm not going to buy more

Other than some small fixes, I finished Rider's wig.

>>5129323
Holy mother of fuck, that is genuinely one of the most glorious wigs I've ever seen. Could you give some tips (or maybe a tutorial, we'd be eternally grateful if you have the time!) about how you did that? I would love to style wigs to be that clean and smooth-looking.
>>5129638
That fits you so very well!! Did you draft the pattern for it yourself?

Unfinished skirt and wig for my Homura Akemi cosplay! I haven't got anything else yet so the other clothes are just placeholders. I'm really looking forward to doing the rest since I haven't cosplayed for a long while now.

I've never had a wig this long before so I'm kind of worried about the inevitable tangling... I need to get some of that silicone spray people say is a good detangler.

Ears are done.
Which means Boris is complete.

>>5134340
I want that skirt!

Can you tell me what fabric you used and how you made it? Pwetty pwease?

>>5134409

Unfortunately I just bought it because I managed to accidentally stumble across a skirt that was the right style and colour - it's just a polyester fabric, sorry I can't help you much more than that! I'm sure there must be tutorials around for box pleats though, try google?

>>5134483
different anon, you shouldnt post something in a progress thread that you didnt make without at least mentioning it.

I'm fixing these things, hoping I can salvage them and add a stronger headband.

>>5134501
Terezi? :D

>>5133356
I'm not sure if I'm going to posting a tutorial for this wig. I do have all of my progress pictures on my cos.com which can give you an idea of how I started it. I'm thinking about opening commissions for to make this particular wig. If I end up not doing commissions I will probably do a write up. You're more than welcome to ask me questions about it either on the photos or pm.
http://www.cosplay.com/gallery/189663/

As for keeping things smooth I use hair spray constantly. For bringing the fiber around the bow (I used a base bow made out of batting) I sprayed the fibers then bent it around the batting and sprayed it again. I also will use got2b spiking spray intermittently depending on what I'm doing, you don't want to use it too much as it will start to make droplets.

Hope that helps anon, again feel free to ask me questions. It would be better to ask on cos.com as I don't check here a whole lot.

Brought out the Dremel and sandpaper and reshaped my rings for Mikuni from [C]. They were previously about 2mm taller (thus uncomfortable) and far less smooth, and the design on the one was just a plain rectangle. (And then, while getting screencaps for my coat, I saw the real design).
First coat of gesso drying now, going to give it a second coat before repainting. Lot of bubbles in the Smoothcast it seems.

>>5134504
Yep! >]

I'm planning to do god tier, since we have the design now.

Mah buddy Jill (Anon Jill, not Zal) and I took advantage of the mad sales at Jo-Ann's today. Pic related.
We got stuff for Panty and Stocking cosplays, I got stuff for Sonoshee, Karina Lyle, and then random sewing things I needed.
AND I STILL CAN'T TAKE GOOD PHOTOS, GUYS.

Part 2. Our savings!
Jill saved about $200 and I saved $260. Receipts as proof, yo.

>>5135273
>>5135268

Well hot damn, woman.

>>5135273
>Dat feel when I missed this sale

Also, this is awesome!
All of my support and cheering Don!

This is a long ass post explaining a lot of features and work on this prop. Sorry in advance.
After less than 24 hours, my Yoko rifle is done. We worked over 12 hours yesterday to finish this before the con this weekend, and then about 8 hours today, totaling roughly 20 hours. I swear, it's a miracle that it came out this great.
I had help with the construction, but I was still heavily involved with the process of making this rifle! I don't take full credit, though, my friend was gracious enough to let me use his shop and tools.
First off, the handle and magazine, as well as the butt of the gun are made of MDF. We heated up some black plastic (my friend informed me it was industrial-grade plastic) and bent it over the butt of the gun and nailed it down with a nail gun. The muzzle is also made of the same plastic, cut into 6 strips and attached to a piece of PVC that we slid and glued (with the help of some wedges we fashioned out of spare wood) over the barrel, also PVC, just smaller in diameter. There's a cocking mechanism that we had to figure how to make too. Basically, it's a piece of PVC that fits inside the other piece, with a screw+little wooden circular cap on top (acting as the pin) epoxied onto the inside section of PVC. There's a spring in the back to create tension as you pull back on it. It's held closed with magnets, because it kept sliding down and open before we put magnets inside. The magazine clip is also removable, and I can store my ID, cash, and other small objects inside. The barrel itself has to be screwed into place with a Philips screwdriver.
The gun is well over 6 feet tall. I'm 5'2", but my Yoko boots add 2-3 inches. I left a ton of crap out, but I'm tired of typing. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
Sorry for the long post, again. I'm still in the process of painting this and adding the pink strap. I'll keep posting my progress as I paint.

finished an hour after power hour.

>>5135268
Oh! Which outfit are you doing of Karina's?

>>5135268
Ok, what was this sale? I've seen people talk about saving a shit ton on my FB too. I am signed up for their DM and email so I feel like I missed something huge. What was going on?

>>5135499
I don't know what you guys are talking about, you can get nearly everything on sale at Joanns.
They have 25% off your total purchase this week, I believe. And 40% off an item. You can also use more than one 40% off at a time, so I'm signed up for their mailer twice and online. You really don't have to pay full price for anything there.

>>5135499
Pretty much what: >>5135700 said.

Don and I bought a bunch of shit and used coupons (40% off one item and the 25% off on your entire purchase). It was grand.

The next entire purchase coupon is 10% off. It ends on the 12th I believe.

>>5135499
Same here, and I for some reason thought it was closed on Sundays.

>>5135457
I am doing her casual outfit, Blue Rose's outfit, and possibly her singing outfit (black dress thing) at some point. Oh, I'd like to do Blue Rose's blue silk gown at some point too. Pic related.

Work hard, Kira does not approve of laziness

>>5136921
Oh wow, that's a lot of them, but good luck! I can't wait to see progress. I want to start her Hero Outfit eventually, but I've ben putting that off haha.

I went and got the hides to make Barnaby's jacket yesterday, and I honestly just can't wait until I start on this jacket now because oh my god these things are so freaking quality.

The red is moose hide, and I think the white is deer but I'm not entirely sure.

mmmmmmmm my room smells like a tack shop I love it so much.

I guess it's sort of progress, but I finally remade my Toxic Avenger hoodie after the cat walked all over it while it was drying a few years ago. I wasn't actually planning on rewearing it anywhere, though.

>>5136978

>MOOSE AND SQUIRREL.jpg

I fucking lost it.

Shitty quality is shitty, but everything is painted!
The barrel/magazine clip were painted separately and aren't shown in the picture. I have to paint the yellow stripes on the butt of it, but that will be done in the next few hours.
Also, bump for more progress, people.

>>5134937
When things can go wrong...
So the first coat of gesso didn't dry properly. Not sure why, maybe the pot went bad or I should have mixed it better. Basically had to sand all the gesso off, and that was not fun with slightly gooey gesso. So, shit is not as smooth as I wanted. Oh well.

Bumping progress thread with minor progress. Working on Airi's stockings. Still need to attach them to the stocking.

>>5139943
Derp, forgot photo

Finished my skirt for Rei today...Now I just gotta do everything else haha. Sorry for the horrible picture, it was late.

>>5138274
Sometimes with gesso the first coat has a hard time sticking to the material (espectially plasticy things), so it takes a looong time to dry. If you'd had left it over night it would have been fine. :/

You should also thin it with water before applying.

>>5140088
nice pleating
also think you'll just make a good rei

>>5140099
Thank you very much! I can't figure out how to get the pleats stiff though so they hold their shape...I'm probably using the wrong kind of fabric so I'll have to research that for future ones.

>>5139945
*fap fap fap*

>>5140094
Welp. That would be my impatience getting the better of me once again. I was even sitting them in front of a space heater on low to hurry it along.
Thanks though.

>>5140106
spray starch! you can get it at the grocery store in the laundry detergent aisle. spray some on your pleat and iron it down. keeps pleats nice and crisp.

of course this assumes that you used some kind of cotton blend fabric.

>>5129323
This is amazing. It's posts like these which prevent me from losing faith in /cgl/.

shiiiit picture but I'm just so damned excited to have my Rose Tyler wig! I can't wait to start on the roots!

>>5140139
Ah thank you! I will have to try that.

>>5140163
its scary how much you actually look like Billie Piper

Cultivating hopeace--chaptcha gets the Dr's mission

>>5140191
>>5140191
.....I have never been paid a higher compliment in my entire life.

Gotta get the extension springs this afternoon for the digits and I'll finally have all the parts to finish my Elemental battle claw. Then I can get it done and start on the arms proper.

Just not sure on how much to curve and sharpen the claws. Right now they are rough and dull as fuck. I want to make sure it's con safe.

>>5129323
>>5130856

OH MY GOSH GIVE ME YOUR DA SO I CAN STALK YOU~ LOL i really want to see this completed~ :D

>>5140367

Where'd you find the hardware for that?

>>5140191
THIS THIS BY DEAR GOD THIS
>>5140163
but really this is looking amazing, I only wish I can dress up like rose and look like her [problems of a small tan woman]

>>5140191
Maybe she IS billie piper (and is just denying it in the subsequent reply)

Added the collar to the chest piece, will be painting the ribcage and detailing it before I lay the white vinyl on top for a smoother look.

So far I stoped everything I was doing and worked on the book of clow. I noticed how the book wasnt 100% Anime accurate, so I was wondering how it would look if I repainted the sides gold and add red gems afterwards.
so far here is my progress. I am already liking how the re painted version looks compared to the original (the one on the right is the original). I just need to find a way to seal the liquidex on where it wont chip off :x
any suggestions?

>>5140716
Hey Torii; you can try sprayin a coat of acrylic sealant. If you can't get a hold of that stuff, Michaels sells these laminating kits that you just spread on and let dry.

>>5140737

Clear paint would do the same thing semi gloss

>>5140604
>>5140556
>>5140191
Y...You guys. You've made my life so beautiful.

I haven't seen a help thread around, so I'm asking in here. Can anyone recommend a stronger glue then hot glue or super glue? I have some wonderflex pieces that need to stick to fabric, but neither of these options are working and I'm not sure what to do.

Just finished Crow's collar from Deadman Wonderland.

WOO!

>>5141554
I'll take five.

Holy shit

>>5141554
I LOVE DEADMAN WONDERLAND.

>>5141412
Try E6000.

>>5132200
Does Motions Oil Spray compare to using silicon in helping to upkeep a long wig?

>>5140466

Lowe's, it's just regular found parts carefully dremeled and JB welded to do what I wanted. I'll get new pics once I get the rest of it together tonight.

>>5141660
seconding E6000

take note it takes like 24 to cure fully.

how do i bangs, cgl?

Still can't get the flames upright, they keep falling under the fan and subsequently being sucked in because of this. Gonna try a tube design...hopefully that'll catch the wind and pop upright.

On a positive note, new lights, switch is mounted and I even set up a nice little disconnect so I don't have to pull the whole damn length through my sleeve every time.

>>5141554
Dude, yes!

>>5141554
Is the line drawing a sticker?

Car shops can cheap decal work and it won't look sticker-ish.

It's pretty much impossible to take good pictures in my room but I'm pretty much done with Midnight Venus! Still looking for rings and my fake nails are painted and ready to wear. I don't know if I'll be able to finish the TV, so I'm gonna put that part on hold till I finish my other stuff.

>>5141957
>>5141660
Thanks guys, I'll give it a go.

>>5142316
Not a sticker, but decal paper.

I haven't sealed it yet, so it's still kind of shiny and sticker looking.

>>5142379

Nice. I know some folks use a decal setter to cause the film to evaporate but that shit's $5 for 1oz. Are you using something more general or just top coating it to even out the look?

>>5142319
dsfhiosdfhiosdfsdfhiohioiosdfhsdfsdfosdfgioguo

this is good.
so good.

>>5129323
Wow, that wig is amazing!

>>5142393
I actually used Micro Sol Setting Solution on it because it kept bunching up. I'll be using Kyrlon's Crystal Clear Sealant to make it sit better and blend.

>>5142488

Nice.

>>5142393

You know what sucks? Decal setter is literally white vinegar plus some small additive. But I have no idea what the additive is.

>>5142512
Thanks bro.

>>5142515
You serious? God damn it. I use a ton of it on my Warhammer minis for transfers and such. It's expensive for what it is.

>>5142182
That looks spiffy and all, but what is it for?

>>5142521

And how much does Citadel charge for washes when you can get a half gallon of future for $3?

They take us for saps, but damn if I still don't buy their yellow washes because I haven't figured out how to replicate them satisfactorily yet.

>>5142532
Story of my life when I painted Imperial Fists and Lamenters, bro. Uggghhhhhh.

God damn.

>>5142535
It's not so bad really. I've had one bottle for a while now and it's lasted me for around 10 MG Kits, 6 of those being Katoki kits.

If you don't know what Katoki means with decals, it means fucking decals EVERYWHERE.

working on my new clover skirt. Progress thus far, liking it a lot more than my last.

>>5141554
just take all of my money.
this is so beautiful and thank you for cosplaying crow ;A;

Made my friend a Casey bag today. The bubble can be pushed down into it and holds a wallet and cellphone easy. I really adore her and and fairly happy since I just glanced at a pic of Casey and made a pattern from that. Eyes need to be fixed with correct ones. Now to make a crocodile for our Dave cosplayer

Puppetable Elemental Battle Claw is coming along, all springs are installed. After I finish waiting for the epoxy to cure on the cable leads, I'll seal both halves back together and mount it on the arm.

Mounting the internal handle, cutting the cable access door and more stuff to follow. But I still thought it was starting to look pretty damn cool. Hard to keep the cables tight and take a picture at the same time though.

Yoko rifle is all done.
Hand sewed the strap onto the 2 separate hooks. I know the black parachute clip isn't accurate, but my rifle comes apart, so it had to be easily removable.
I love this prop so much. I might post better pics later, but for now this'll do.

>>5140447
Pardon the late reply, anon but you're welcome to stalk me. I tend to post a lot of my progress on my cos.com.

IS dat some battletech?

>>5145068
Wow all your stuff on DA is amazingly well made.

Get back on page 1, progress thread.

Got my Frankendress for Originality Miku all pinned awkwardly to my now-inaccurate dressform. I feel this project is taking more effort than the payoff is worth, but oh well. Got this far, not too much more to the end.

>>5141679
I prefer Motion's because it's easy for me to get. I've never used silicon but I've never had a problem with Motion's being left on a wig either.

WHY IS THE PROGRESS THREAD ALL THE WAY BACK HERE.

Okay, so I'm working on Terra/Atlee as a last minute deal. I was stupid and didn't use interfacing while sewing my zipper to spandex (hi, I'm a moron) and just did a light stitch to hold it in place before I actually sewed it on. Now, the bumps aren't horrible, but I'm not digging them at all, so erm.. is there something I can do, or am I gonna have to take this whole thing apart and do it all over again? ;-;

Also, ehm, picture. The shadows make it even worse than it actually is, but yeah.

I just spent four hours ironing interfacing to my coat. Yay?

>>5145088

Maybe.

Bumping from Page 12

>>5136980
Is that a Sgt. Kabukiman NYPD mask?

Even page 5 is too far back for the progress thread!

Bumping with a new Makoto (iDOLM@STER 2/im@s anime) wig being worn with just eyeliner and contacts, booya. My old wig was totally horrible and bad, but I actually like this one. It's a little bit more anime than game, but that's so that it suits my face better.

It doesn't look like much but I had to custom-dye the color (that the webcam doesn't show) with three methods before one of them took, straighten the entire wig weft-by-weft (because the only method that got that particular color was boiling a heat resist wig in RIT dye), and then cut and style the wig itself. Way more effort than it looks like! I'm using a slightly different ahoge technique this time than I normally do... I'll find out this weekend if it photographs well or if I should redo them with the older method!

>>5148814
My god, I don't even recognize you like that.... what have you done with Hanyann!?

>>5148814
I swear every webcam on earth has screwed up colors

Finally stretched the fabric over the EVA foam and painted the green strips. Will be doing the collar next and then the "SoftBank" lettering.

>>5149478
Derp. PVC fabric. Not fabric. That'd be dull.

>>5148814
I agree with Freeman, you look totally different lol

>>5142169
i don't mean to be rude, but can somebody please tell me how to do this? The bangs. The blue-black part is thicker than the pink and its hard to separate them.

Sorry for the crappy picture and not having the rest of the costume on, it's in the process of being painted.
Wig wip for my Disciple cosplay (the horns will go under once it's done and the wig will be a lot bigger). I actually have a question on styling. I'm not experienced with it at all, as you can see. I wanted to flip out the ends, but no matter what method I try to make it hold, the fibers remain straight. Round brush and low heat dryer, good hairspray, fabric glue, etc. I'm guessing I just looked up the wrong tutorials or I'm using the wrong materials, because it doesn't seem like it should be that difficult. Thanks in advance for any help. I'm glad to see a lot of quality progress pictures, keep up the good work everyone.

>>5129864
Customize like crazy!! I had to create a mask for a ball and I started with a plain white mask and came up with this.
>>5129323
I SAW THAT WIG FLOATING AROUND ON TUMBLR I SAID IT WAS THE PRETTIEST WIG I HAD EVER SEEN. You are amazing. <3

>>5149500
try a razor comb! it's what I used to get that soft piecey look in this thread, and it really is nice for bangs because it lets you thin hair!

>>5149518
What is your wig fiber? You may end up wanting to get a bunch of curlers and not roll them up all the way and then heat the hair and let it cool around the roller. I had to do that to get flip-ends on a wig recently. You might also want to see if flatiron curls (like what you do on hair) work on the wig; it's worth a shot!

>>5149535
Thank you <3 All of the other characters I've ever cosplayed have had straight bangs or plain ol swept aside bangs.

Start of my Liz Thompson hat. :)

>>5149535
Thanks for the advice! I thought of trying curlers, but I don't have any that would be the right size. I'll look around for something though. Also, the website said it was hyperlon fiber.

>>5128874
Zodd The Immortal from Berserk
what i got so far still a lot to do

>>5141412
umm dont know if they would work sens i never worked with wonderflex but maybe try one of these?
rubber cement,

Crazy Glue

did my test run of a papercraft Varia Suit helmet recently, and then realized half way through assembly that the helmet was actually for the Power Suit. Since it was a test, it was just my regular printer paper thankfully, and not my nice card stock paper.

I've just started doing papercraft stuff recently, and thought Hey, why not do a metroid cosplay?

I'm starting on the final Varia helmet in ten minutes.

My planning for the build goes like this:

>Build helmet in sections
>fiberglass the inside of each segment
>put segments together
>fiberglass the seams between each section
>bondo the outside
>sand
>repeat last two steps until outside is smooth
>paint
>attach visor
>done with helmet
>repeat with the rest of the suit

>>5150824
uh, what reference are you using that has a different power suit helmet from the varia helmet

>>5150853
Well, if you examine the details of each helmet, the Power Suit's is more narrow, and doesn't have the "tabs" on the top and bottom of the visor.

In addition, the back of the Power Suit's helmet curves downward a lot more than Varia's,

>>5150890
Again, what reference are you using? The "tabs" you're talking about was a stylistic change that came with Prime 2 and has been on every visor since (except for Brawl). The helmets should be exactly the same

>>5150961
Well, I'm always used to the Prime 2 design I guess.

*shrug* Whatever then.

Extending Jubei's catpants into a full body in preparation for his Dark War design...

>>5151910
CATPANTS: UPGRADED

>>5153170
IT'S GLORIOUS!
>>5150979
Finally finished piecing together the helmet,except for the tubs on the front, which won't take any time at all.
