Progress II

I got a lot done today /o/ Instead of making lists, I will instead post photos because it's more fun that way. Under the cut - Ukitake test pics (with better bangs!), new haircut, and mostly-done Reno wig.

Oh, nice Ukitake costume ! And I love the Reno wig. XD

Thanks :D I'm pleasantly surprised with how well both of them are turning out so far.

ahahahaha your glasses are so cute. And Reno's wig looks amazing, considering how hard his hair is to reproduce in a world with gravity. XD

It's not actually gravity that's the problem! I have high-hold hairspray for that. But Reno appears to have roughly twice the amount of hair as a normal person. This wig is extra-thick and it's still not quite thick enough for all the spikes he has.

XD Yeah, he has a shitload of hair. It looks good though, for being like, real. hahaha

The guy who's going to be wearing it was here with me last night (I worry about everything, he worries about nothing, so having him around keeps me from going crazy over sewing stuff XD), and we were both going 'wtf he has so much hair'

I enjoy all your cosplays cuz you put forth %500 effort into your costumes and you really know the proportions of your body. I know you already wrote a rantpost about bad cosplay and people not putting forth the least bit effort. So thank you for reminding me that there are those out there who actually care about their costumes.

I know that sounds a bit out of nowhere, but I respect your mad skillz. Hahahah. And because everytime I see your pics, I want to cosplay xD

I am generally full of nerdrage, and bad cosplay is totally one of my pet peeves :') I try...and get neurotic about all the details, and then generally drive everyone around me crazy in the process. But the end result is awesome!

And no worries, I appreciate the compliments ♥

Wow. Beautiful work on those!! I love all your details!

I love the Reno wig. Shiny...

I find the little details really make the costume, so I try. Unfortunately there's no way I can get the zanpakuto done before con time :( There may, however, be photos of Kyouraku's pink monstrosity later tonight. It has shed all over everything in my living room, including me :')

This is my second attempt at wig styling ever (Ukitake there being the first), so I am really excited with how it came out :D
