Getting started on Retsuko! Making furry ears

Image
Greetings! Not much progress on Linkle sadly, been sick for a while so I'm kinda lacking energy to do much. Only thing I got done regarding cosplay is Retsuko's ears. I'm not making a full on fursuit, just ears and tail, heh. I've done one pair of ears in the past, but I feel like they're not up to my standards anymore. I had to do a bit of research from other cosplayers and especially furries! I mainly used this tutorial I found on YouTube. That said, here's my take on the ears!  I started by sketching different kinds of patterns for ears until I found one that worked for me -> I cut the pattern out and tested on my head, perfecting the fit and possibly modify to my liking. When satisfied with the pattern, I copied and cut it on EVA foam, then copied the pattern once more on a fabric that comes to the inside of the ear. You can of course paint the foam too, but I lack paints so I prefer using fabric, lol.  After that I glued an iron w...

Current dream cosplays

Oh damn, Sallukka posting shit that ain't cosplay progress.. It's wayyy past 3 am here, I'm a little tipsy and I got the idea to write about this lol. So now that you know the setup I have here, let's go! Cydaea/Mistress of Pain/Maiden of Lust - Diablo III Cydaea has been a dream cosplay of mine for almost 10 years now. Cosplaying as a spider lady that won't bow to anyone is appealing to me I guess. Also she is my favorite boss to fight against in the game. Also making a spider-butt would be interesting and challenging. The design over-all is quite intimidating, but I hope I will be able to make this happen some day. If you happen to be into legs you don't want to miss this! Jessamine Kaldwin/Empress - Dishonored I've been a fan or Dishonored-games for years, and the first game has a special place in my heart. I love this games art for it looks like an oil painting that moves, the amazing soundtrack that I like to play while working on a...

Cucco farmer part 3!

Cucco! Holy shit I made some progress! The hell that I went through making the vest, finished wig and some other stuff. Let's begin from the vest, once I figured out a few things, it wasn't all that bad after all. Main problem being it didn't sit quite right, so I had to adjust a few parts, now I'm quite satisfied with the result, yay! The reference for the vest. I'm still lacking the buttons and the lace, so only small things really x) I started by roughly drawing the patterns and added my measurements. After making the actual patterns, I tested them by making a mock up. You know, just be sure it'll work. The result seemed fine to me so I continued with them. At that point I didn't realize the "cape" part didn't fit quite right to the actual vest, but it wasn't too difficult to fix after all, haha. Only thing I have to show about the mock up, whoopsie. Vest WIP Yeeyee, got a cape One happy boi The...

Hey guys! I've been working on Linkle yes, I'm currently working on the cape/vest and almost got it done and then found some fuckery and had to redo it again...and again.... Needless to say making this isn't as pleasant as the other parts so far... either I'm dumb or the damn cape is cursed. School also just started so I had to focus on other things, moving back to my dorm and all that jazz, so not much progress on Linkle . Once all this is sorted out, it should be easier.  Never mind me! Just trying to find some fuck to give.   But I wanted to touch on some other cosplay I would like to make while working on Linkle . I was looking through my cosplay closet, looking for some ideas I could work on. Obviously something a bit easier than Linkle . Then it came to me. I've always wanted to cosplay a character with animal ears and tail and seeing some materials I thought about this hard working fluffy lady... Retsuko from Aggretsuko ! Now brin...

Cucco Farmer part 2! (+ cats)

Hewwo uwu Big cosplay-making hours. I'm currently at my mother in laws house, looking after her animals, so I don't have access to everything I'll need for costume making. I made the cute skirt, necklace/choker, started on bootcovers, the armor parts on them and cut the wig. Showing the skirt. Sorry for re-using the same image from last post uwu Let's begin from the skirt. It's basically like any other skirt, except I measured the folds to that front part where the eyelets and laces go. I added a zipper to the back. I'm sorry for the lack of pics, I simply forgot to take them, but here's some.  Folded and wrinkly, I apologize ^^'' I promise I will Iron the skirt. The result, again, sorry for not ironing, I'm too shy to use my in laws stuff too much... Also I am aware of the lace being wrong color and I am going to get new ones later. I don't have that much to say about making the skirt. Just some issues with mea...
