How has this NOT been started already?!
Costume progress is a staple of convention forums, people.

There are less than 2 months before the con, so hopefully everyone has at least started on their costumes. Post your cosplay status, to-do list, or even progress photos right in here.
Stuck on something? Ask for help!

Part 1: Learn to tie a pagh (turban) DONE
Part 2: Make the accessories out of resin
- Positives made, working on the negatives for the molds now.Then pour and pray.
Part 3: Jacket and gloves.
- Patterns cut, fabric bought
Part 4: Bastok Battle Standard
- HA! 1/3 done the inner symbol (hand embroidery)
- This part may not be done in time.

Friends costume (Yangus from DQ VIII)
- Fabric bought, pants done. Need to cut fur vest
- This is by far the easiest.

Ooooh, resin. That stuff scares me to use, but I see people get such good results with it.

I play 40k, so resin isn't a real pain, it just smells. BAD. The painting of it is just like any other model

I made the sleeves for my glados vocaloid cosplay. I just need to add the aperture science logos (iron them on), and add some black to cover up the icky satin that freyed and just because she has black on the ends. XD Besides that I do have a shirt I need to de-sleeve.. then I just need to buy the material for a skirt or maybe hit savers again.. I swear it's darn near impossible to find pleated skirts anymore.. IN SOLID COLORS.

That's why you sew one, silly XD

Anyways, I got distracted by mega computer issues and was unable to meet my January deadline for Cure White. Seeing as all I have left to do is finish up the boots and make the bows, I think I'll go ahead and make that other costume too.

Need to hit up the Gem Show first....

I will be cosplaying as keiichi maebara and his most notable item is his baseball bat he carries around. Would i be able to just bring in a regular aluminum bat or would i have to make it out of plastic?

Well I have the pattern and fabric cut for my new France cosplay but I still need to sew the entire thing and buttons have yet to arrive.

Sailor Uranus Fuku
I finishes the armor.... I have made the Hip roll and the skirt and an in the process of combining them. Once that is done I just have the gloves,butt bow, choker and collar. I am undecided on if I will make a new tiara. Oh and I still need to cut the wig! Oh and the Sword!

Princess Uranus
She needs everything! I am even worried that I won't have enough fabric which maybe I could buy more.

Sailor Neptune!
Well I have the wig and the skirt is hemmed but I need to wash the fabric again. I have the Armor done but I need to make the collar Choker, Tiara, Shoes, Hip roll, collar, pretty much everything bu the Armor!

Well I guess I will update even though my last post was yesterday.

I finished My Fuku. All I have left for that character can not happen until I get paid. So I have the wig to cut, the sword to make, and the Tiara if I so choose! Sailor Uranus is almost done!

Now for my Princess dress!
I made the entire base last night and today I just have to hem the entire thing, Most of it is pinned, and I need to make the straps. I also need to make faux buckles but those also cannot be done until I get payed.

There has been no progress on my other two cosplays but oh well I can get them done in no time!
