Cosplay most proud of?

Im goin to kick off this one with a pic



Im the one in the middle as Hisagi from Bleach. It still needs tweaking like binding my chest and posing properly (along toning up the arms >.<) but I was v proud of my weapon as it was the first time I had ago at props. It was so cool to have people stop and look in approval just with the words "Nice one!". I even had a fan girl, which made my day lol.

That cosplay does look seriously awesome on you!

Sooooo good at crossplay lol

Now i need to learn how to post pictures on here

took me a while to figure it out. if u want to link on from ur facebook, right click it and then properties. paste and copy that code between the [img/] [img\] thingys and it should show.

Gotta be this one, first cosplay I ever made, and got the best reactions!

Both awesome I'm way too lazy/obsessed with lolita to put any real effort into cosplay lately >_<

I do love your Harley Quin Outfit Shadow and so does everyone else by the looks of things ^_^

I'm still rather fond of my Tamama cosplay


Also my latest one;

I'm a car, I'm a car, feed me petrol, I'm a car!

I'd be happy to help. Yoshi the little Mario Dinosaur right?

The one and only! might be worth pm-ing her as she has to work alot and might not see the thread.

lol thanks Nanao but I'm doing well on the head atm, ofc any tips are always welcome! It's always good to hear about different ways of doing things Though i must say, i'm sure sure i could handle wearing a papier mache head hehe

Just becareful if its too hot; papermache doesn't breathe and can get soggy ( ew).

Yeah think i'll probably pass on the papier mache hehe, iv'e almost done the head for Yoshi anyway, but plenty more to come! I pretty bad at any papier mache anyway mind you

I might put a tutorial on here for people to reference. Yoshi has quite a big head so it shouldn't be too bad.
If I were making a Yoshi mask I'd go for a small ( headsized) beachball. Mache that. Then get two smaller balls/balloons/tinfoil rolls for his cheeks and another large ball, but smaller than the head, for his muzzle. Then two more balls or egg shapes for his eyes. Sight would be interesting; I'd either dimple the nose on either side and situate the eyes lower to see out of or make it out of mouth, with some red gauze.

If your eye sight is effected or you costume empeds you ( walking, manuvability) get a spotter/watcher to walk with you. They can tell you of upcoming hazards, if anyones about etc.

That's almost exactly what I did anyway but with polystyrine balls and foam and stuffing because I wanted it to have more of a soft toy feel. Appreciate the tips but since I've almost done it I probs won't be making it again lol.
Visibility wise I basically have the eyes where the eyes are lol, works out pretty well

cool, can't wait to see it.

Can't wait to finish it lol, iv'e deffo not found it easy and it took a long time to work out the head stuff, as Nanao said I was having alot of trouble, it's only just now that iv'e got it sorted tbh ><
I will be coming to you for tips galore when I start my next project!
