Old cosplays I'm going to remake!

Image
Hiii~! Realizing that before Linkle happened, the "newest" cosplay I've made was Fiona Belli from Haunting Ground! It was long ago since I made it and most of my older cosplays are now fabric/material donors. There are definitely still some I want to remake and cosplay in the future as well (and get better/up to date pics)! Here are the ones that came to mind.. Sheena Fujibayashi - Tales of Symphonia Now my wife Sheena here is still one of my favorite female video game characters of all time. She really left a mark on me and I want to cosplay her again, though this time it'll be improved! I want the whole cosplay look more crisp and accurate, the colors of choice were way off and the blue wig I used isn't doing it for me anymore. And also I'm going to have Corrine on my side! I've always wanted to learn how to make plushies. ^^ Also proper boot covers that actually hold together! Though I must add that there are other versions in the game I'm intereste...

Papaya Girl part 2

Hello! UwU Made some more progress on Paya. Now that I have wig and accessories I started working on the under-shirt and skirt plus a makeup test, haven't done those properly in a while! There is also another lens review coming so stay tuned! ^^ These are the clothing I'm referring. For both shirt and skirt I combined materials from two of my old cosplays, since I have no use for them anymore for one reason or another.. Drum roll please....! Alice Liddell - Alice Madness Returns Photographer: Shiro Samurai Now this one was a rushed project, literally used this only for one photoshoot and kinda forgot about it. (probably for a reason, it looks horrible sos) Now all it was good for was fabric donor lol. Glad I kept it!  SenHime - Hakuouki: Sweet School life Photographer: Shiro Samurai I was actually kind of happy how this one looked on me. I really wanted to keep it around and maybe wear it again after some fixes, but when I tried it on, it was way to tight on the chest area. Now...

Papaya girl part 1

Hiii~! I'm bringing Paya back! I tried to figure out her outfit one or two Summers ago, but threw the idea out. Though to my credit I wasn't too far off now that you can find proper concept art of her. I'm so happy to get to her again~. <3 She's so cute and sweet girl and I'm having a good time playing Breath of The Wild, so a cosplay project from that game shouldn't come as a surprise. ^^ I started from the wig, cuz that's always fun. I have this white wig with quite short cut bangs, so I started cutting and styling it. That was the easy part though, the side parts and the bun were really something. Now the sides I had to redo like once so they cooperated with me pretty well. Pretty nice, starting off quite strong. The bun part was horrible to work with. The end result was always either too messy, the placement wasn't right or the bun wouldn't hold together at all! I had to work with that sucker like 5 times and even now I'm a little paranoid...

Lens Review: Vassen Color - Super Pinky Wine Red

Image
Hiii~! Another lens review -time! This time gonna take a look at Vassen Color - Super Pinky Wine Red , yay! I already showed one pic when I did a makeup test on Volta (The Arcana Game), so it definitely is about time to give you the actual review lol. Here we go!  Lenses in the vials. I took more pics of them too, but for some reason they got lost or my camera didn't save them.. Gonna double check from now on! The lenses look nice and red though.  One lens in Both in, facing window, cloudy With flash Yellow light Back against sun In shadow The color is very pretty! The name pretty much says what type of red we're dealing with, the look is so interesting. Perfect not-so-in-your-face red, love them! Let's roll for the distance pictures~ Important!! Please  noot  note that I got these lenses from a friend who lost interest in using big circle lenses and by the time I got most of the lenses many had already expired. This is the reason why I'm not grading comfort because ...

Backyard photoshoot - Linkle edition!

Image
Hello everyone! While I was doing a makeup test for Linkle and a lens review I decided to use this opportunity to take some pics of the whole cosplay as it is. All I'm really missing is the compass and the crossbows and a little detail from the cape that I noticed just now <_< Oh well, this was a nice way of testing the cosplay out.  Practicing social distancing and also for the old times sake these pictures are taken in our backyard. I guess it kind of works. :D  My bf was the photographer :3 "OwO What's this?" I need to learn to do cosplay makeup again lol. I haven't done it for ages.. even everyday makeup really. Next post is going to be about the compass and crossbows. I'll try to wrap it up then and have some new pictures taken hopefully! :3 This is it for now, Sallukka rolls out!

Lens Review: Neo Celeb Blue

Image
Hi everyone! It's lens review -time again! This time taking a closer look at Neo Celeb Blue ! I have so many cosplay plans that have blue eyes so I took this opportunity to do a Linkle cosplay test. :3 I'd like to add that I don't have vial pictures, but at least you get to see how they look like in the case. Let's go! Yeah these lenses aren't the biggest ones, so enlargement effect isn't gonna be that noticeable. Though the black ring is gonna give some of that "kawaii"-effect.  One lens in Both popped on, facing window Yellow bathroom light Flash Outside in the shadow Back against sun The color isn't really in-your-face blue unless you take a closer look. Definitely in the smaller size so popping these on is easy! Not only easy to put on, but also very comfortable. Didn't really feel them on my eyes that much. Over-all gives a cute look! :3 Now to the distance photos.  Summary: Color: 7/10 Probably on darker eyes the blue isn't that notic...
