So I wrote this post on September 13th, then promptly forgot about it until October 21st… I sometimes wonder how I manage to build cosplays.  Anyhow. As it seems most of you just can’t get enough of my lame sense of humour… another panel write up! Weapon making Intro Written by Toast Cosplay & TinyChampion Cosplay Original Panel hosted by Toast Cosplay, TinyChampion Cosplay and Featherstone Cosplay Planning: Templating/Sizing: So this one had a fun animation too, just like my armour one. However because this is my blog, you just get images. Cry, it’s okay baby. This is Cloud: Now although this is a niceRead More →

Beginner’s Armour Making Tutorial

At Anime Revolution this year (2014) myself and two of my cosplayer friends decided to take on a challenge, running beginner aimed armour and weapon making panels. We had mixed opinions on who they were aimed at, but generally came to the conclusion that we just wanted to improve the general level and props and weapons that we saw around our local conventions. After sharing a few horror stories of things we had seen (eg. a single cardboard layer scythe and things made out of raw styrofoam) we put together our panel. During the panel we were asked as to if we would be willingRead More →

Last post for Haseo, at least until I decide to build a few more pieces for the costume.  I have started on another project and will post some updates on that in little while.  In the mean time I may discuss some tools or materials. I still have to build the weapons (the guns) or another of his weapons (Twin blades, scythe or chainsaw sword).  Although I have built the twin blades in the past for my Haseo first form cosplay, and did still own them when I wore this cosplay, they were some of my learning props and didn’t fit with the rest ofRead More →

Anther multi-part post!  Trying to finish up the Haseo posts so I can get to slowly posting newer things :) The wig: I have always been a little afraid of wigs, my wig for my first form Haseo cosplay did not go over well.  I didn’t like the pure white colour of it, it was too thin and it wasn’t long enough to do all the spikes.  On top of all that, the back part didn’t even stay up correctly.  However it had been a few years since that wig and I’ve learned a fair amount since then.  I picked a non-white colour this timeRead More →

All of the previous pieces had much better build process/detail photos than all the remainders.  For the most part I was either rushing these parts as the convention was racing up in me or they were done earlier in the process when I wasn’t taking as many photos. Next up, shoes! Reference photo, this time from the .Hack//Trilogy movie. These cannibalized a pair of boots that I didn’t like all that much, they were clipped down to fit the height of the shoe.  I added a bit of pleather to the top to hide the edges caused by cutting the boot down, however most ofRead More →
