BODYSUIT bodysuit BODYSUIT

I finally got around to it. I said I was gonna do it and now I am. Under the read more.

First four pictures are the old suit, last three are of the new one.

The bodysuit used to be fucking BAD. In the desire to find lightweight fabric that wouldn't overheat me, I went and got this fabric that was.. just the worst. It was too thin, not very stretchy, and it RAN.

Any raw edges exposed to a force stronger than a gentle tug would separate and become unrepairable. Imagine your costume fucking separating at the seams cause something pulled on it a little.

I got most of the way before I said "this sucks ass, I'm restarting." So I went to Joanne's and dropped another 70 dollars on this wonderful modal knit thats discontinued as fuck. It's thick and doesn't show sweat until it's reaching clinical levels due to the modal fabric on one side and the spandex on the other! It absorbs it and disperses it so it doesn't show on the outside.

I definitely did get hot in that costume, but way less than I expected. Honestly I got cold more often than not @_@

N e way it's just a bodysuit pattern I modified to add the split in the middle. It clasps at the bottom and I think I went overboard with the snaps cause for some reason I was convinced they would pop so easily. They didn't lmao.

The gloves on this costume are part of the sleeves, so I can't free my hands lest I want to take off the whole suit.

The buttons are 3d modelled by me, printed, sanded, and painted by hand because I was pissed that no one sold buttons that looked right and I refused to compromise 💪💪

Evidently as you can tell, the ruffles are also sewn into the collar and actually did not give me any issue with the stretch when putting on the suit!

Captain yells in the abyss about cosplays and broken dreams 🙃

Curse my hobby for 15 years having been cosplay and my college degree also having been costume making because I very much still have the "maker's mindset" despite having no energy to actually commit to cosplay for the past 2 years. The pandemic killed my enthusiasm for convention-going for obvious reasons, and I took up drawing digitally. However I still approach new media with crafting costumes in mind, thinking about what outfits would be fun to pour hours into making a reality, browsing fabrics and materials (and occasionally buy things whoops), and frequently daydreaming about having fun at conventions again along with doing cool photoshoots.

My last large WIP was Mother Miranda and there's still months of work to be done before she's wearable. Never finished my Angie doll for my Donna cosplay either. I do still want to finish MM after 2 years tho... EXCEPT NOW THAT DAMN CRAFTING BUG IS TRYNA BITE ME AGAIN WITH AGATHAAAAA

Goddddd I want to make that 1950s dress so bad! It'd be so cute to dressin black and white, to painted up to look like I walked out of the show. And that sexy frock coat... UGHHHH. THE DESIGN IS SO RIDICULOUS WITH THE BACK BUT I WANT IT. I WANT TO PATTERN THAT STUPID SEXY SHIT.

But with everything... do I impulsively try to make things before my ADHD fucks off and I get bored, or keep waiting to see if the desire fades all while dying to give in? And... do I even have the energy to try anymore without my chronic illnesses keeling me over while I barely juggle extra work shifts and life? 😭

actively losing my mind rn because we’re coming up on a year since I played Edna in hairspray and I’m still getting hit with waves of Post Show Depression. HOW. I cannot exist normally and haven’t been able to since last october because I love her so much

[ragsy]

Halloween is so weird when you're into cosplay as a regular hobby because the holiday rolls around and suddenly everyone you know is showing off their costumes online and you're like "wow, since when have all these people I know been cosplayers?? Cool" and then you realize. Wait. This is just the normal time of year for most people to be wearing costumes. You're the outlier here

Ranking Claire Redfield’s outfit repeats because I’m a huge bitch and also proving a point a little bit

Revelations 2

The blueprint. This is Claire grown. She’s got her dress shirt under a more sophisticated/business casual red leather jacket with blue skinny jeans and heeled boots. Perfect way to serve looks at a Terrasave welcome party before you get kidnapped and trapped on an island with infected. Started the trend and as the great Sidney Prescott once said; “you forgot the first rule of remakes, Jill (Valentine). Don’t fuck with the original”.

Resident Evil 2 Remake

The second incarnation of the template for a Claire Redfield outfit. A solid interpretation. A red leather jacket with the now essential layered tank top for a female protagonist. Blue skinny jeans again with brown biker boots. Pretty standard and practical for a girl with a motorbike. Safety first though she wears her helmet. Kept mostly fresh and appropriate for a 19 year old.

Infinite Darkness

Downhill from here. Now we’re just mashing the two previous looks together. We’ve got the red leather jacket, this time the dress shirt is collarless and ill-fitting. Blue skinny jeans yet again, and black boots. The combo is a little odd to me, like wearing flip flops with a tuxedo. Maybe I’m thrown off because the button-up looks to be business casual, if it were black instead of white it would change the look. But I’m not here to give fashion advice, I’m just policing repeat offenders. Maybe not the worst but most definitely not the best.

Death Island

This is the worst one probably because it’s the most recent version of this look and I’m tired at this point. I wouldn’t say it’s a terrible outfit on its own but this is the fourth time we’ve seen this be done and while the last one was a little bit of a fashion emergency, this one’s just a snooze fest. I see no soul in this. Here we yet again have a red leather jacket this time paired with a plain black undershirt. We’re not done overcooking this repetition because, you guessed right, she’s wearing blue skinny jeans and black boots. A revolutionary take on an outfit we saw almost 10 years ago I must say. I’ll give Claire some credit though, she’s got the red leather jacket industry on lock. She’s only wearing the same shit to keep the economy together. It is so bad, I want to give you a zero. But that’s not possible. So I give you a one.

There seems to be a distinct lack of creativity going on and it’s really sad. I could point out so many artists who have posted their own fan redesigns of Claire that are clearly recognisable as her that are so varied and brilliant. It’s possible to separate Claire from her red leather jackets, skinny jeans and boots. People will still know it’s her. It’s a beyond dead horse at this point and I don’t see it resurrecting (zombie joke) so I beg of whoever is in charge of the character designs over there, please get it together.

on another note, the local manganime / comics / games convention will begin at the end of the month and guess who i'm going to cosplay as ( yes you got it right, it's miss manager barbie herself )

[artsy-1diot]

my method for making shit is so very organized
