Costumes~!

Those sound so cool, DSK! Which Clara version are you doing?

Gahhh I'm not done with Azula and the convention is on sunday   I know I'll finish, but I'm freaking out! Haha I'm updating my progress on my blog if you're interested in checking it out *self promotes :p *

Thanks! I'm going to do the Asylum of the Daleks outfit. I'll post pictures when I've got it done

Cool, Shaak Ti! It's really fun to see the process you are using to make it! I bet it will turn out great!

Sounds like cool cosplays, Shaak Ti and DSK!! I bet they'll look great!

I finally got pants the other day for my Attack on Titan cosplay(I'm going to do Armin, Levi, Sasha, Eren, and Mikasa as of now), which I'm happy about! Only have to get a few other things now.

Thank you!

That's awesome! That will be really fun!

I'll have to get a picture up of my Clara cosplay! I'm really happy with how it turned out!

I saw so many great costumes yesterday! There were a ton of Firefly! Every other person had a Jayne hat XD There were also a bunch of really cool X-Men costumes, and some good Frozen ones. And of course, the 501st was awesome as always.

I think it is so cute when families cosplay together! We saw one family where the mom and dad were Zoe and Wash, and their little boy was Jayne. It was too cute!

Ok, for my next costume idea, I'm thinking I will dress as the Winter Soldier! This one will be a lot more challenging than Clara, but I think it will be a lot of fun! Plus, my hair is just the right length so I won't have to use a wig or anything.

If anyone has any tips or happens to come across any on tumblr, pinterest, etc., please share! The toughest are going to be the arm and face mask.

OOOH ARMOR I LOVE ARMOR

*cough cough*

So, are you going as a Fem!Bucky? Or just regular Bucky? You're costume's going to be so cool!! And you'll have lots of fun making it, the difficult ones are always the most fun

Haha ok so I do have some tips!

Face Mask: You'll probably want to devote more of your effort to your arm and the rest of the costume, so I'd say make it simple and take a ski mask and add vinyl detailing to it. That way you don't actually have to make the mask from scratch, and it's already made so you can breathe :p

Arm: There are quite a few variations on how to do something like this. You could craft foam, and paint it, which is probably the most effective way. Styrene is also a lightweight material, and I've heard it works great for armor! Here's some tutorials: craft foam , styrene

So, yeah, if you have any more questions feel free to ask

*also* if you decide to bind (but there's really no need to), make sure you do it safely. Buying an actual binder is best, but depending on your chest size, there are some safe ways to do it yourself, such as wearing a fashion corset and lacing it tight on top, or layering sports bras. DO NOT use the ace bandage method, it can be dangerous!

Honestly, the way his vest it made, i doubt you would need to

Thank you so much! I appreciate all the advice! I'm going to be just regular Bucky, and I'm pretty flat in front so I don't think I'll have any problems there. Thank you again for all of the links! I can't wait to get started! I'll post updates of how it's going!
