Some of the things we'll be doing soon are as such...
~Making stencils
~Practicing styling Abel's air defying wig
~Start testing out how to make patterns (For Seth's top.)
~Starting to make the foam templates
~Sketching out the armor pieces as well as the outfits
~Make a list of all materials we need
~ Get our portfolio set up (I'll explain this in a minute.)
~Researching how to make patterns, more armor techniques
~Ask for advice from other cosplayers
See? There is a lot we can do now. Today we're going to sit down and talk about the finer details. As mentioned above we are making a portfolio for our bigger cosplay projects. The cosplays we plan on entering into a contest will be in the portfolio. It will mainly be filled with progress pictures, explaining in full detail how we did this and that, ref pictures and notes about our plans. I'm mainly making one to keep me organized while working on two major cosplays. We'll do it for the wings and the props as well. It'll include the patterns we used as well.
I hope I can get my paws on some tracing paper soon so I can start working on the designs for the armor and for the costumes. I'm nervous to be starting such a big project but it would be a lot of fun to wonder around as our favorite characters at Sakura-con instead of waiting until fall. We don't know if we'll enter them into the contest or not. It depends on how well the costumes are going and if the wings are done on time. So I won't know or not until later on.
I will upload some pictures of the "portfolio" we're making later. Nicolas has already printed off the pictures we will be using for our references. Thanks for reading! We'll update often as there is a lot to work on with these cosplays.
