Thank you very much! I seriously owe you one, because I never would've gotten through it without you.
If you ever need anything, seriously, I'd be happy to help!
Unfortunately the entire back half ripped right across the middle, haha. I'd only have to replace one panel for it to be good as new (minus minimal wear), but augh I don't have time for that right now with class. @.@

Oh wow. I haven't ever watched Avatar who or know anyone is, but it still looks really really good! And that armour really did fool me. Craft foam, you say, huh?

Thank you very much! Avatar is a great series and I highly suggest you check it out.
Yup, Craft foam! You can usually get a good sized sheet for under a buck. Maybe ten, fifteen of those made the entirety of my armour?

Oh wow, it must have been at least a month since my last reply and I still haven't painted it. But I do have the chain finished?
I wonder why Maka and Tsubaki would be battling?

Hi! That's me on the far right. I was going for Kyoshi style! Azula, but it appears there were technical difficulties . Awesome pic (and costume).

I figured you were fire nation posing as Kyoshi when we had the stare-down pose (lol, which was epic too. )
Edited the description to credit you in there too! Yay, now we have all the Saturday Kyoshi people~

StarsOfCASSiOPEiA In reply to JessyMcBump [2010-08-05 22:20:21 +0000 UTC]
Oh, but of course! I'd be happy to help! ^^ Is there any part of the cosplay in particular you're having trouble with?
1000x I recommend making it, because then you know it'll fit and it'll be just the way you want. (Plus I'm just a big DIY geek, so.
) Probably about the same price to boy or make it, depending on how detailed you get (or how many sales you hit).
I put costume info like the makeup/wig/basic materials in the artist's comments, which should get you started! Feel free to ask if you'd like more detail!

Ok Im fine for right now I wont be going until next year. How long did it take you to make the costume?

StarsOfCASSiOPEiA In reply to JessyMcBump [2010-08-06 10:22:55 +0000 UTC]
I work veryyyy slowly, lol, and on-and-off. Armour took a solid week of summer to be 100% finished and fitted to me (and I had to re-design the side supports to elastic, so that wasted a day.)
The skirts weren't too bad, maybe a day or two each? The shirt was a bit of a pain (because I kept messing up the gathering on the sleeves), so that maybe took three.
I'd suggest not sticking to my time frame absolutely, start a coupe months early and work when you can.

You're awesome. <3

Hahaha, I saw you guys a few times too! I remember my group all squeeing over the Teen Titans.
Oh yes, that's when you were wearing Soul Eater garb, right? I remember that too! You guys are awesome as well! I really hope I do as good a job as you all did when I (attempt
) to make Maka for next year. XD

Avatar is really fun, there's a lot of random "Secret Tunnel" singing and fake battles. Definitely a great (and friendly!) series!
Best of luck on the Rave Master stuff! Not the easiest set of cosplays there.
