Idears about my Tsukasa costume. >.o;

Post by Nanaki Tsukasa Mikage »

Okay, so far I have the pants that go above his ankles that he has under his cloak. >_> Yeah that was easy to get. XD;

This is what I have planned. :P For the undershirt, the turtle-neck sort of thing with the robe-like sleeves, since it'd be REALLY hard to find a big one piece cloak that has a high neck and those sleeves, I'm probabaly gonna make it two parts.

The high-neck sleeved thing as one, and then probabaly a cloaky looking dress. :P it won't look like two pieces though, because of the light tan hooded thing he has over it, that will cover it so it looks like one! :D

As for that, I have that piece too, same color, it's thin too, and totally plain with a zipper. ^_~ But my mom is crafty, so we're going to cut the sleeves, and then use fabric to sew the hem, so it looks like it. :P Cut the sides at the bottom a little, like Tsuka-kun has it, and for the zipper, since on what he wears, he has that red-brown pattern going down the middle. XD With the help of fabric we can cover that, and make it look like an ordinary pull-over. :D!!

Shoes... hm.. that's a hard one. XD Where the blazes to they sell plain looking things like those?! X_x; Me and mum saw these slippers in K-mart, but they had.. fuzz going down the middle. T_T Otherwise they would have been perfect. BAH.

I finally got an idea for the staff too. ^_^; Broomhandle, of course. :P But for the top, I thought of something like this. Maybe sew and stuff, make two identical shapes out of fabric, for both sides of the staff (large of course, so it takes on the shape when stuffed), and then... stuff it with something soft, and maybe knot something on the inside to hang the ball thing from. X_x;; Other than than I'm blank on ideas, or I'll go to a shop.

Hat. o_o;... Er.. my very first thought was a normal hat, like a winter hat that fold up on the bottom, because it sort of looks like that, but Tsukasa's doesn't looks to... TIGHT. x.x; Unless I find a really beeg one. Otherwise, we can use fabrics and stuff. :P

Wig'll be easy, in NYC, they have many wig shops in the Village, paint for the face I can get any ol' where.

It may sound complicated and like it won't come out good, but I'll take piccus when I finish it. xB And I shall try my hardest!

^_^ I know I'm planning a bit early, as the Big Apple Anime Fest in all the way at the end of August, but I'd rather do it now, so I don't rush in the end, and I wanna try and make a Ceres costume before the event too. ^^;

And a greater thing, on Wednesday, I start my new job at this thrift store! And the lady said she'd give me free things here and there along with payment!! A lot of clothes come by those places, so I'm lucky, hopefully I can find something for me costume.

I really hope this comes out good though. XD :: crosses fingers ::

Whoo! :D Good luck and stuff, sounds good to me. And planning ahead is always a good thing. It really stinks to realize a week before the convention that you have only got 7 days left to finish things up. n_n I'm working on Tsukasa and my costumes for A-kon and Anime Expo right now. I am not going to let procrastination happen this year! ^^ Oh, and for the boots, sometimes it helps to check online stores. Or Ebay. Ebay is good for odd costume stuff.

Wai wai thank you! ^_^;

I wanted to cosplay for AXNY last year, but had no time, xD which is why I want to do it now so I have much time to spare. Mwuaha, the though of pictures come to mind though. XB Since they take much piccus of the cosplayers I'm like "That would be freaky if I was in a magazine or something o_O"

But hai, it sounds a bit choppy, but the way I see it in my mind is.. it's not as easy to type it and make it sound right.

<3!!

putting something from mind to paper isn't always easy... that's why nothing of mine goes anywhere... it never hits paper... and when it does, i'm to picky, and it doesn't go anywhere else...

Yeah it's hard to word. XD; But the image is pretty clear.

And I'm a procrastinator. :P So this is a first where I'm actually trying with something, so hopefully I can do it right.

Yeah I'm actually going to the stores myself. XD; And when I want too, usually I'm like "Eh, I'll go tomorrow." and that leads to about a week. XD;

And of course, fun. :D! I never noticed how fun it is making it, specially with the image of me running around harassing people in it. XD! Makes me wanna do it more, and the thought of people noticing who I am, and making great new friends. X3!

it's always fun harassing people when nobody's acting like themselves... did some rp on halloween last year... went as one of my D&D character... it was fun... everyone else in my little group did the same thing...
