Casual Saber

 Hi everyone!

If you know me, you know I've been in Fate-hole for quite some time! I've always liked Saber's design in Stay/Night, the armor is just iconic! Regardless, that's not what we're making today. I need a simple/comfortable costume to bring with me to this years cons, so I looked at different versions of Saber (there's so many!) and ended up with this....

Here she is!

I already have the shirt, stockings, shoes and a wig. All I had to sew was the skirt and the bows. Easy! 

With the skirt I kinda winged it. I made a rough pattern, but ended up having to add side panels, since the result resembled more a pencil skirt. Easy fix though! 

Testing testing...

lil bow to the back :3

If you see dust/cat hair, no you don't.

The wig is actually a Jean (Genshin Impact) -character wig from MyCostumes. I have thought about cosplaying Jean before and before I styled the wig I tested it on (I had to trim the bangs a little) and did a quick makeup test. I had a lot of fun and was a bit surprised how much I enjoyed Jean already! I honestly might add her to my cosplay list! :D

The lighting isn't great, but you get the idea.

For wig styling I just turned the ponytail into a bun and wrapped a braid around it. I straightened and cut the sides a little, not too much so I can re-curl them for Jean. :3 I also trimmed the bangs a little more. 

Looks messy, but that's best I could do now ;_;

Shoes are from my closet, they're not perfect, but close enough! So close that all I could do is change the shoelace to brown and it would be almost perfect!

These are sooooo comfortable to wear!

Here's the finished product :D


I felt cute, not gonna lie :3


I'm still planning on making Saber's excalibur for this. I'm gonna make at least one other version of her and I'm gonna need the sword anyway. :3

See ya later!

    I'm all for simple cosplays especially in the warmer months! Lugging around thick material isn't fun. This one honestly looks simple enough to be a daily outfit as I don't think many people would realize it's a cosplay. I also love the bun! It came out super cute. 💖

      Yeah I've started so many complex cosplays and never finished them ^^'' That's not the case with simpler costumes though! x) It's definitely a cute outfit! I'd love to wear that skirt more often. Thank you so much!

Crystal Mommy part 2

 Hi everyone! This time we are working on Venat's mask and other little accessories she has on her robe. Picture found from google, probably the most clear shots I could find where the mask is seen clearly Ancient mask sold in Square Enix-shop The overall silhouette of the mask I cut from from 3mm foam sheet. I did a couple paper drafts first to get the size right.   I also drew on the pattern for some reason? Good thing I did though.. I wasn't sure what I was doing. I tried covering it and do the details with black worbla, but that didn't turn out right... I'm Buttman! And here's the botched detail work... It's very goofy and the placement is so off! RAHHH Me with this (and every) cosplay So.. I heated it up just a little bit and ripped the worbla off from the mask. It wasn't glued on or anything and came off pretty easily... The worbla mask shell.. a husk even. The foam itself was fine, a few scratches aside. The design also was visible, so I decided to us...

Tracon 2024 Summary!

Image
 Hi everyone! Tracon was held 6.-8.9 once again in Tampere Talo. We skipped last year since there were so many wrongs in Tracon 2022. I heard a lot of good things about last year though and decided to attend this year. Main entrance   Our trip to Tampere started on Thursday after Don finished his shift. The train trip went well and hotel wasn't far either. I was quite tired, but didn't skip skincare. I tried one of those Disney Villain face masks and felt my villain arc begin. The mask left me feeling sticky and gross. After night cream though my face felt ok. Still would not recommend, especially if you have sensory issues. I got if for free though, so can't complain too much. I don't know if the serum did anything useful. Ehhhh First day of convention! We woke up pretty late, but the con wouldn't open before 15.00, so we could take the day slow. My cosplay for the day was Venat from Final Fantasy XIV. The weather was nice, but also quite warm, we were prepared for...

Nekocon 2024 Summary!

Image
 Hi everyone! Nekocon was held 13.-14.7 in Kuopio's Musiikkitalo once again. My journey there started on Friday. My traveling companion and boyfriend Don had work that day, so we planned to leave once he got back home. Departure ended up taking an hour or two longer though. Driving there went ok, though google maps gave us a weird route to a different place. I don't know if it was a typo on our part or maps just being weird, but after a while we found our airbnb. Firith and Shiro Samurai were super nice and fetched our tickets for us, so we didn't have to wait in line during the con day. Thank you guys lav juu! ❤ The main entrance The ticket The theme this year was creatures and weirdos, which was a perfect opportunity for me to bring Ix Elizabetta from Welcome to Demon School Iruma-kun!. Last time I wore this costume was Desucon 2023. I've made a couple improvements since then, like a whole new skirt with better patterns, new tail and fixed sleeves.. I still need to ...
