Dark and Krad wig commissions

Here we go, proper pictures of the Dark and Krad wigs I made for Lea and Zuumie.
This was my first time at doing wigs that had to be able to get rustled on stage, without going out of style.
Also they wanted a more "realistic anime esque" look, not too natural and not too anime (hardcore spiking)





The Dark wig was borrowed, therefore it was very limited as to how much I was allowed to play with layers, and really perfect it. It had alot of fly-away leftovers (cut off the ones I could get away with), and the neck was too straight, and the sides too uneven, but all in all. I think it turned out good still.
But definite need of improvement on the next one that Zuum's ordered (can't wait), especially more layering on the top (Hello single spike, doesn't anyone like you?)




Krad's wig was pretty easy and I finished it alot quicker than I thought I would.
There was alot of hair on this wigbase, so I had alot of hair to work with, and it was easy to move around, (can't say the same about the ponytail though x__x)
The long part of the fringe is one of the things I'm most satisfied with, it turned out really good, and it actually looks like it've been there all along, when it's actually a glued on strand :D
Also I love the bottom back part, since I had to make a little "Faggot tail", for the larger one to cling too, the net was VERY visable, so I had to pull small strands into the back, to cover it, and also it gives a really good texture effect.




The wigs together (Here you can see alot of Darks flyaways x_x;;)
Since Dark and Krad are mirror images of eachother, I felt it was very important to give them a very definite likeness, and I think I've pulled it off pretty well. (look at top fringe 'spike')


But that's actually all I have to say about that. Sorry for the watermarks ^^;
I'm excited for upcoming projects, hooo yea~

(Btw... should I do this for every wig that has a little more advancement in it? you guys wanna see that? huh?)

J-popcon 2010

J-popcon is over, and I must say....  it was a con filled with much better costumes than all the other years.
Though there was alot of bought once, but oh well. I'm a supporter on every side, I'm mostly interested in wigs, which... was pretty... needed here and there ^^;;







My Ciel Phantomhive costume, inspired by the Nendroid of him = not so AMAZING and with lots of details.
But still I'm pretty satisfied with the turn out (Eventhough it's transparent in bright lights XD)

And the 'wigs I've helped prepping part'






Kiba's Madam Red, I've cut this wig out of a really long one, and imo... it turned out perfect. It really suits her so well, and I'm proud of it.

Lea's Krad wig, THAT I LOVE THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
It turned out so amazing (I say amazing too much), I was really satisfied with the face... flop... thingy... I've seen alot of... very unsuccessful tries on this one, and I was very into making it perfect and wearable.

Sabine's (borrowed*unstyled*) wig, that I fixed up, unfortunately. No real good pictures yet, before I get my camera recharged, but this is a little something something. And I think it turned out great, seeing what I had to work with for starters, not being able to cut it and all :P

So.... should I start taking commissions?

Teru Teru Momiji

Me and the gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous Zuumie went out today to take some cosplay pictures, unfortunately we completely lost the light on her part, so all the pictures are.... totally worthless to put it bluntly.

But Zuumie took some GREAT pictures of me in my Momiji costume :D
just in time before I have to restyle the wig <3



Who's in the forest strolling?
The birds and the bees sing Momiji!
The frogs in the pond are calling,
Momiji, yes, it's true.
The trees raise their leaves together.
Who needs the sun when we've got you?

Infernal to a lense

I know. I make the best titles. Deal with it.

So. As I've said.
Promised Kiba to make my Ciel for J-popcon, so I'm slowly working through it.
No process picture with the outfit itself yet, I 'tore' it off the mannequin, because I got tired of being taunted by it's unfinishness.

So today I practiced a little with the make-up, and I think I've settled on this look.

(of course my Sony decided to run out of battery, so.. cellphone x_x;;)










And a quick shot to show, how big a difference make-up and lenses does.
(I look stoned, but it was the clearest picture I got)

Secrets?

Just a quick shot of how the shirt I made for Kiris looks.
I'm really satisfied with it, and think it have the 'medieval' feel to it, that the whole Manhwa does :D





So... Kiba talked me into trying to finish my (so unplanned) Ciel cosplay, for J-popcon, since she's going as Madam Red.
So I made some practice make-up and tried to style a wig with the likeness of Ciel's hair.
I've already ordered a wig, tomorrow I'm going to look for fabric, and then see if I can manage to make the shorts.





Ciel eye-patch. Not showing it off properly before I've gotten the wig XDD
It's self interpreted, since I HATE the look of the one he's portrayed to use. This one is so much more hardcore >D




And because I got annoyed with my Tai cosplay, I started working on my Ritsuka shirt, made by leftover fabric. It's just something I'm working on on the side, it's not for anything special.


And I'm very excited about everything. Can't you tell?
