Things I am looking forward to learning.

One of my favorite things about cosplaying is learning new things. And as you can image our planned Trinity Blood cosplays will be pushing me to learn new things. These will be two HUGE cosplays so I really want o focus on improving myself and using new techniques. So here is a list how what I am going to be learning.

~Hand Embroidery

~ Colored resin jewel making

~ Using EVA foam to create a breastplate

~Using molds to create 3d details for the breastplate

~Making feathered and fairy wings

~Making a corset (MAYBE)

~Using fabric paint

My fiance is in charge of making all our armor, expect the breastplate for Seth. It'll be something new for him. I told him if he chose to do Abel's priest outfit he had to do all the armor and he agreed. Which is going to help me a ton. 

He will be learning how to

~Make armor out of foam 

~Making armor out of Worbla or Wonderflex

~Making resin gems

~Casting resin

Hand embroidery is going well. I'm making mistakes but am learning from them and am doing much better than my first try. It is challenging but I think if I keep up with practicing I can get much better by the time I need to use it for Seth's outfit. If not, there is always trim I can use.

The next post will be about details on Abel's outfit. But it may take me a while. I'm getting some of our old cosplays and stuff cleaned up to sell so that'll be my focus for the next week. Thanks for reading!
