#the wig is from epic cosplay which is my favorite place to get wigs and for the tattoo I made it with temporary tattoo paper

[sketchupnfries]

Thank you so much everyone for your kind words on my Cal Kestis cosplay!!! It was a blast to wear around the con, and I can't wait to wear it again!

My mom graciously was the one who made my cosplay, and she did an amazing job!!! She is a very talented seamstress, and I def need to learn how to sew from her haha BD-1 I got from Galaxy's Edge at Disneyland, and my lightsaber I got from Disneyland as well.

No. 17 - 2012

Character: Erza Scarlet (Armorless ver.)  Series: Fairy Tail by Mashima Hiro

Cosplayer Credits: - Natsu : My brother - Gray : Jaiden - Lucy : Kirky

Photog Credits: - Axel - David Ho - Nikki Smith Photography

==========

This is genuinely one of my absolute favorite costumes, and one of the ones I'm still so proud of today!

Like Shiki, I decided to make this particular version of Erza's because I saw an opportunity to make something I'd always wanted to make: a hakama! Does she actually wear a hakama? Not really, but who cares?! 

==========

My wig is from Epic Cosplay Wigs. The top is two parts. The first was made from white spandex and is essentially a tube top. I then cover it with drug-store gauze that sticks to itself once it's in place. The bottom, which you can't really see, is made from the same white spandex as the top. I made a pattern from a pair of tights I already had only it goes down to just before my knees.

The hakama is made from red denim-like cotton. I used Folkwear pattern 151, Hakama and Kataginu. I used appliqué (HeatnBond Lite) for the flames at the bottom; the fabrics were similar to the red. For my back board, I fused some spare red to a few pieces of 16th of an inch-thick piece of interfacing. It is washable this way but still stiff as a board and bendable like professional hakama.

I originally wanted to do the tattoo with Hollywood Ink Henna pens and a stencil, but when we got to the convention Friday, we saw they had temporary tattoos in all of the colors we needed and we figured that'd be easier and faster. Plus, most of us were wearing things the next day that would've shown the guildmark so we didn't want them to clash. I later bought actual temp tattoo pens from Stargazers.

I made Benizakura to go with this costume in 2017. It is made of 1/4 plywood for the core blade and hilt. The tsuba (guard) is made of 3/4 plywood that I sanded down to about 5/16 of an inch. I also sanded the hilt pieces from 1/4 to about 1/8 so the hilt came to 1/2 an inch. I used thin foam to finish the designs: the over-layer on the tsuba, the swirls on the hilt, and the pummel. Lastly, the tassel is made out of actual tassel, three wooden craft beads painted red, and screw in loop painted gold. The tassel was beaded and then, after strung through the loop, glue into the top bead.

And speaking of late add-ons... I also didn't have the time to make her earrings but I did eventually, so look out for them in some of these shots. They are made out of a half-inch square acrylic rod that I sanded down using a grinder wheel. A friend carefully drilled a small hole for the wire that I twisted, covered with a bead, and attached to a clamp earring, since I don't have pierced ears. Everything was spray painted to match.

Now my brother's costume was also a lot of fun to make. Aside from his height, he really does have a lot in common with Natsu, so it was a lot of fun to be these two. We got the wig from Fantasy Sheep on eBay; came pre-styled.

The scarf was made out of white fleece. Essentially, I made a pillowcase-like piece, inserted a thin layer of polyfoam, sewed the fringes between the "pillowcase"'s sides as it was shut, and sewed the different sections with black thread. I'm very proud of it because it bulges up and sections off like the references.

I used dark navy blue broadcloth for the front fabric and I insisted it should be reversable as per the Tenroujima Arc, I used grey broadcloth as the lining fabric. The trim is gold poly-cotton. I modified a simple shirt pattern I already had as the vest was not very complicated. We actually bought both the belt buckle and interchangeable belt from PiercingPros on Amazon.

Same fabric and idea as the vest, for the "skirt." I measured his waist, marking the middle, and then halving that measurement to add to it to get the bottom measurement, lining up the middles. (In case that was confusing, here's a formula: W = waist measurement; B = Bottom measurement; W + (W/2) = B) It connects at the top, under the belt with hook-n-eye clasps.

I modified the pants pattern from Kouma. I used white broadcloth held up with an elastic waistband. The calf ties are extra navy broadcloth fashioned like trim after bunching the ends of the pants and have hook and eye clasps on the inside seam. The knots are made separately and then sewn into place They were actually made by my friend Kirky.

This costume has won the following award: - Best Anime Group @ Tate's NOT at ComicCon in 2012

prompt: Aaron getting hyped for Purim (the holiday where we all cosplay)

(heck yeah! Purim is actually what started my idea of having Aaron be a LARPer :P)

Aaron fiddled with the long, blonde wig, finger combing the stray strands back into place. He still wasn't sold on whether or not he'd be reprising his Link costume, or tweaking it to a Legolas. But Bex had been dropping hints all month that her costume was going to be epic, teasing with pictures of shopping bags from charm shops and even a ridiculously large package from their favorite faux weapons fabricator. Mom banned the biggest props in the house, but that wouldn't stop his sister from getting something ridiculous like a Buster Sword or a mecha armor get up to just tease him with. His love of costuming had been well and truly nurtured as a kid and his rivalry with his youngest sister was one their favorite ways to bond.

He set the wig on the dresser and poked his head in the bathroom.

"You almost ready in here?" he asked Chris, breathing deep of the soap-scented steam that wafted out. His mate picked the best scents. The citrusy yuzu hair cream was one of his favorites. He'd burrow down with her later tonight, chin nestled over her shoulder, and the scent would blossom. He couldn't help his grin.

Chris blew him a kiss, knowing it would send ripples through the scent-scape.

"You know if you come in here we'll just end up distracted," she warned.

"I know, I know." He came in anyways, taking a towel and drying her back. "I'm just really excited to take you to Trixis. You've never been to an illusionist shop like this."

"Well no," she teased, "seeing as I've never been to an illusionist."

"Which still baffles me. I don't understand how someone can go their whole life without ever playing with a disguise charm. Especially knowing Mel--didn't she ever need to cover up hickeys or anything?"

Chris gave a low hum and turned around to place a kiss on the bend of his neck. "Are you saying I can give you one now and we can pick something up to cover it before going home for the holiday."

Aaron growled a happy answer, then stepped away. "No, bad baby pup. Down girl. We have to focus."

Chris took the towel with a laugh and began to dry he legs. "Fine, fine. Let's to your charm shop and build some costumes to rival Bex's."

As if summoned, a chime sounded from Aaron's phone. He sighed, but it wasn't an unhappy sound.

"Let's see what she's not actually showing me this time."

The text was a picture of a picture, from a photo album almost older than Bex. The whole family was lined up, Mom in a blue gingham dress, baby Bex in a little basket with a big black bow on her bald baby head. Dad was in a flannel shirt with straw sticking out of it, David in a big cardboard box spray painted silver and his metallic snow bibber. And in front, Aaron crouched with a mane made of brushed yarn and black whiskers painted on his nose in his Tigger footie pajamas. He smiled at the memory, knowing how David had fussed at him that the Cowardly Lion did not have tiger stripes. Aaron had insisted they were Tigger stripes, so what did it matter, and David had hit him with his inflatable hammer "ax". That had actually started the "no weaponry props" rule, and Aaron wondered if that was why Bex had sent it to him?

Is this a hint? he texted back.

Maybe ;)

Aaron grinned to himself and hit save attachment. He couldn't wait to get to Trixis.

Pish Posh Wigs Elizabeth Review

I discovered @pishposhwigsusa  just recently through @epiccosplaywigs. Sadly, I don’t own any wigs from Epic Cosplay. I have read some very positive reviews about them and considered the brand sometime last year for a specific wig that I needed for a coord, but I ended up settling for one from Arda instead. I follow their Facebook page so I can keep an eye on special offers and promotions in the event that I ever decide to buy one of their wigs.

About the beginning of August, they advertised some new wigs from their sister site (or a site that they are affiliated with). Pish Posh Wigs sells mainly lace front wigs, but they released a few full front wigs (wigs with bangs) and a very interesting new color they call “Hazy Gray”. Browsing through, I instantly fell in love with their “Elizabeth” style in the “Hazy Gray” color and after sleeping on it for a couple of weeks, I finally decided to order it.

The brand launched in 2016, so this was my first time ever hearing about it. Since their wigs with bangs are something that they started selling just recently, there aren’t any reviews about them yet. They are a fairly new shop, so there aren’t many reviews for their lace front wigs either, but since they are affiliated with Epic Cosplay, I figured the quality would be the same or very similar.

First, I want to review the wig itself.

This is the “Elizabeth” in “Hazy Gray”.  They have a few other wigs in this color as well and Epic Cosplay mentioned that they will have the color available on their site sometime soon.

Product:  4/5

The color looked beautiful on the stock image and they described it as having pink undertones, although they described it as having purple undertones on some of the other styles, so I was keeping my fingers crossed hoping that the color was in fact pink. Turns out that it is…both?

It’s such a strange color. The wig looks a bit more orangey on the stock image. The only way I can describe it is a very light ash blonde with pink and lilac undertones. They are not very noticeable, tho. Every now and then you will get slight glance of the pink or lilac, but you can’t really pinpoint where the fibers are, which I think is really fun and kind of tricks your eyes. The wig will look different colors depending on the lighting too.

Straight out of the package, the wig was already a bit frizzy towards the ends and there were a few small knots as well as a tiny bit of shedding when I brushed through it with my fingers. I had to brush it and re-curl a few sections and that seemed to fix the problems there.

The top of the Elizabeth is slightly darker than the rest of the wig. A soft burgundy color. The curls are very fun and bouncy and the fibers are soft and silky. Not shiny at all. I’d say the fibers are comparable to the wigs I own from Gothic Lolita Wigs and Rockstar Wigs.

Here it is compared to my milk tea wig from GLW, one of my favorite wigs.

The GLW wig is thicker. You can see some of the wefts on the Elizabeth. Not easily enough that you’d have to wear a hat to cover them up at all times, but you would not be able to style the wig any other way without them showing.

One of the weft on the Elizabeth was coming off. I managed to quickly sew it back in.

The tops on both wigs and the caps are the same. There is no skin top. Both wigs are heat resistant. This GLW wig is from a few years back (I believe it’s their “long curly lolita”. It is now wavy, tho. Need to wash it and re-curl it.) and is no longer available on their site, so it doesn’t include the combs on the front and back of the cap. Newer GLW and Rockstar wigs come with combs which are great for extra security. I tried on the Elizabeth after resizing the cap to fit me and it is very comfortable. The wig is not heavy, just like the GLW one. I’d say they fit and feel the same when worn.

I trimmed the bangs straight across and it is now ready to wear!

Since this is a first impressions review, I haven’t had the chance to wear the wig out for a long period of time. Once I do, I will update this review.

Pricing: 4/5

This wig was $40, around the same price as a similar synthetic wig would be at another site, but even though I liked the color and the fibers are nice, I feel that it is slightly overpriced considering the quality issues mentioned above. I feel that for the same price I am able to get a thicker wig with less quality issues from elsewhere.

Shipping: 5/5

Pish Posh mentions on their Tumblr page that they offer free shipping within the US just like Epic Cosplay does, but I was charged $5 for shipping. The wig came in a cute zip-lock bag printed with a scallop design and their logo, so the price for shipping is worth it in my opinion. I was a bit disappointed that the wig did not include a wig cap. I had gotten used to all of the other brands including one with every order.

I places my order on August 21 and the wig arrived on the 23rd from their California warehouse. Pretty fast. Just how I like it!

Ease of Shopping: 3/5

I’m not sure if it is because I view the site from my iPad, but it is difficult to browse through all of the wigs they offer. There isn’t a drop down menu anywhere on the site where you can go to a specific section like on other online wig shops. There are a few banners on the main page that will take you to a specific category, but I’m still not sure how to view all of the wigs they offer.

The site lets you create an account and there you can add the wigs that you like to your “wish list”. They also offer a points system like a lot of the other online wig shops where you’ll earn a certain amount of points for every wig you buy, which you can later use to get a free wig once you have enough points. You’d have to buy a lot of wigs, tho.

Over all, I might consider buying from Pish Posh Wigs again if they ever release any full front wigs in new unique styles and colors that I can’t find elsewhere. I’m not a fan of lace front wigs, so I don’t think I’ll ever be interested in those styles. I hope that this brand can get more recognition and feedback in the near future so that they can keep growing further. For now I think I’ll keep sticking with GLW, Arda, and Rockstar Wigs for my lolita hair needs.

Winged Victory Mercy Cosplay Write-up / Roadmap - Part 1 - The Noggin

So I dumped my Imp Mercy cosplay in favor of Winged Victory because working with 1 mm thin acrylic for the clear parts of the wings became extremely frustrating plus wearing full PVC pleather jacket and pants dehydrates me so badly omg. I made most of this in a month from November 2018 to December for Otakufair x Game Expo, then finished up a little more in January for PAX South. I do not recommend trying to do it in such a small time period unless you can dedicate yourselves to the project, and work on it day by day instead of leaving it off to the last moment. Alas, this applies to many goals in life. Overall, this project took me ~70 hours and cost me $115 USD. Not bad...!

Wig 

Epic Cosplay’s Ponytail Base wig in Natural Blonde ($27 USD with shipping due to using points from previous purchases). 

Styled with hair dryer and hairspray (Aussie Instant Freeze Hair Spray because it’s what I had already, and it’s pretty strong) on a foam wig head. I’m pretty lazy with styling wigs, so this was a good faith effort that would mostly be covered up by the headpiece.

Head band

C’est La Sara’s Winged Victory Mercy Wings + Accessories Combo Pack template for $9.

Disclaimer: Compared to the automatic PDF scaling of other PDF templates, this pattern felt more difficult to use and has a lot of empty space--which can prove very expensive if you don’t own a printer and have to pay page by page. If you mess up the scaling, it can prove even more frustrating. My printer at school would cost $40 for printing the template out if I printed it out as instructed. I messed up several times and had to hand scale things in order to get rid of all the empty space. Stella Chuu has more economical and user-friendly patterns IMO, but her template only contains the wings and not the other accessories. 

Materials: I made the head band part out of two layers of leftover Worbla Black (optional), and the thicker ear pieces out of leftover 1 cm EVA foam mats from Home Depot covered with Worbla Black. I don’t recommend using these mats as they’re pricey and have a bumpy side (see pics below) on the wrong side. Instead, I recommend TNT Cosplay Supply’s 1 cm EVA foam that’s smooth on both sides. :)  Support your Texas local businesses! Luckily, the bumpy side is mostly covered by my huge cheeks, but it does look less than ideal.

You most likely can just make the entire thing out of varying thicknesses of TNT Cosplay Supply EVA foam and skip the Worbla step in order to save money! Wow!! I swear I don’t work for them.

Head band process:

Traced out shape onto two layers of Worbla, sticky sides together, heated it up with heat gun, then cut it out when still warm/soft with scissors (this allows the edges to seal).

Laid down band flat to cool before drawing design onto Worbla with ballpoint pen.

Heated up pieces again and carved along pattern with pointed clay working tool.

Shaped head band into a curve by heating it up and wrapping it carefully around my Flexbond jug that is approximately the size and shape of my massive head, holding it in place until it cooled as to keep the curve. 

Alternative EVA foam option: 4mm would do the trick!

Garland leaves process:

Traced pattern onto single Worbla layer and detailed with carving tool.

Alternative EVA foam option: I actually tried to make this with crappy, cheap, and literally cancerous smelling craft EVA foam from Walmart. It doesn’t tolerate any heat at all, and is very flimsy, so I actually had to redo this step several times in an attempt to “save money.” Using better quality EVA foam (single layer, 2mm, from TNT cosplay omg) would probably be wiser.

Head phone thingies:

Cut spiral disc and L thingy out of 1 cm thick EVA foam, beveling edges, using traced template as a guide.

Traced template onto EVA foam of spiral disc, and cut it with same knife, beveling as to create the gross shape of spiral.

Used rotary tool to further detail spiral.

Smoothed all beveled edges with rotary tool

Covered everything with single Worbla layer, being careful to heat and smoosh the Worbla into the spiral with a clay working tool. 

Gluing everything together:

Worbla: bonds to itself when heated what sorcery

Alternative EVA foam option: You can stick everything together with hot glue or Your Favorite Foam-safe Adhesive like E6000. Don’t forget proper ventilation!

Finishing and painting

Worbla: I gave everything a gross sanding with 36-80-120-220 3M sanding blocks because I hate sanding

Painted on four layers of 50/50 Flexbond/water

Alternative EVA foam option:

Heat gently with heat gun/hair dryer so it’s BARELY sparkly to slightly melt the porous surface

Coat with about four coats of 50/50 Flexbond or wood or Elmer’s glue with water before painting

Spray painted with Rust-o-leum gold paint.I initially tried to top coat them with various substances (Mod Podge, Pledge Floor Care Finish, Krylon), but it left a blotchy mess and I had to go back and fix it later. I recommend just not procrastinating and letting the metallic paint cure and dry as much as possible (like, over a week in a low humidity environment) because top coating metallic spray paint is difficult.

Alternatively, you can just use metallic acrylic over spray paint if you have the patience to not have visible brush strokes. :) There’s not as much rub off and you have more control. 

Tied down headpiece with fishing line onto wig!

Coming up! Wow! Content!

Dress

Scarves

Medallions

Skirt

Back wings

Feet wings

Cosplayer Of The Month June 2017 | Chaotic Good Cosplay

New Post has been published on http://ges-sa.com/cosplayer-of-the-month-june-2017-chaotic-good-cosplay/

Cosplayer Of The Month June 2017 | Chaotic Good Cosplay

[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”25694″ img_size=”large” alignment=”right” style=”vc_box_circle”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_gallery type=”image_grid” images=”25693,25692,25691,25688,25686″][vc_column_text]Welcome to this wintery edition of Cosplayer Of The Month! The chilly season is definitely upon us now and we experienced it first hand during GeekFest 2017 right?? This is also where we got to know this month’s featured Cosplayer – Bronwyn from Chaotic Good Cosplay. She walked away with some of the awards from the GES Cosplay Contest and we wanted to get to know her a bit more and find out how she goes about crafting those amazing outfits….[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Hi Bronwyn! Tell us a bit more about the person behind the cosplay persona?

Hi! I’m an electrical engineer by trade. I love making things and absorbing inspiration from everywhere!

How and when did you get started in Cosplay and why do you enjoy it?         

I first started being interested in cosplay at Geekfest 2016 while watching the skits. I threw on a few things from my cupboard for ICON 2016 then there was no looking back! I did my first proper cosplay at rAge 2016 and immediately wanted to start the next 100 projects! The most alluring thing about cosplay for me is being able to take a whole bunch of crafts and hobbies that I enjoy and create one masterpiece from them! It’s really awesome to have a hobby which teaches you so many new skills

Do you have any hobbies or interests outside of cosplaying? If yes, please tell us more about it      

Plenty! With crafts I always have at least three projects going at a time! I knit my own jerseys, I love embroidering, painting and sewing, not to mention cooking and baking! I’m also a super big fan of many series and anime as well as a gamer. Whenever I have the time I also enjoy dancing, running and hiking.

We all know that cosplay has been become a very expensive hobby these days, do you have hints or tips for other cosplayers as far as cutting down expenses etc are concerned?

Plan ahead. You can save a lot by only having to buy from a supplier every few months. I always buy at least two/three items from a supplier at a time to make shipping/petrol costs worth it. Buying in bulk also gives you the opportunity to negotiate the price with the seller at many places. Also shop around. China mall is your friend!

What is the one thing that you try and avoid when making a new costume?

Leaving everything to the last minute! My work becomes sloppy when I am rushing and also then it isn’t fun anymore, it becomes more a chore than a hobby. Also if you are up the whole night before a convention you probably aren’t going to enjoy yourself as much

Every Cosplayer has a favourite part of creating a costume or something they are really good at, what is yours?        

This is going to sound extremely silly but the planning of the costume. I treat each costume as a puzzle and think of different ways of tackling the problem before I actually start making anything. I get excited about all the different methods I could use. Planning is invaluable because it saves a lot of money if you know exactly how to approach the costume before you start and removes a lot of anxiety from the actual making of the costume. And having a backup plan is always a good idea!

Tell us about your most epic fail ever, whilst crafting a cosplay costume         

Maya from Borderlands that I made for rAge 2016! I had never made armour before and messed it up completely so I remade it the day before and then needed to attach it to my leotard somehow. So at midnight I was slapping on contact glue where the velcro was going to go, using myself as a model not knowing that contact glue can give you chemical burns! Then at the con itself whenever I sat down my armour folded in on itself and created a nasty crease. And if things couldn’t get worse the side popped open and I had to ask a stranger in the bathroom to pin me back together. Fail! Haha! I learnt a lot from that experience though

Which character do you consider to be your Holy Grail of cosplays?    

Erza Scarlet’s Heaven’s Wheel armour! I mean have you seen it? It’s amazing!

Which international con would you really love to go to and why?       

All of them!!!! I think DragonCon is freshest in my mind at the moment though. They really had some amazing panels and some epic cosplays this year! So much FOMO!

Congrats on winning all those awards at GeekFest 2017! Can you tell us a bit more about your Nico Yazawa from Love Live cosplay?     

Absolutely! I chose Nico because we (Triple Threat Cosplay) did a skit as Bibi from Love Live! We decided on the animal costumes because they are so cute and fitted the theme of the dance. My entire costume is made of black and white fur with a wave pattern rippling through it. I spent a lot of time making sure that everything was perfectly aligned, fitted and hemmed properly but my big magic trick was that the entire thing is pattern matched!. Yup, even the flaps of the pockets. It was my first time attempting this technique so I was really chuffed with the results. I also made my own pom-poms out of the scraps and styled the wig myself. Those pigtails were hard to get to be that bouncy but it was absolutely worth it!

South Africa’s convention scene has been growing leaps and bounds over the last couple of years. Do you have any tips for the other cosplayers as to how to stay comfortable throughout the day?

Think about how you are going to get into and out of a costume and how you are going to transport it. You don’t want to have to leave half of your costume behind because it didn’t fit in the car! Make sure you can sit down, eat and drink in your costume (as well as use the loo by yourself!). Do your research! See how other cosplayers have done the same character before and find out why because it may just save your bacon! Lastly bring a change of clothes just in case as well as eye drops and a LOT of water.[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”25685″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” onclick=”img_link_large”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1445504261410border-top-width: 3px !important;border-top-color: #aa71e2 !important;border-top-style: solid !important;”][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]

Thank you guys for your nice comments and words!

Thank you so much everyone for your kind words on my Cal Kestis cosplay!!! It was a blast to wear around the con, and I can't wait to wear it again!

My mom graciously was the one who made my cosplay, and she did an amazing job!!! She is a very talented seamstress, and I def need to learn how to sew from her haha BD-1 I got from Galaxy's Edge at Disneyland, and my lightsaber I got from Disneyland as well.
