Finn does Cosplay

Alright, so just some updates and stuff from my last post until now. I've had a change of plans in terms of my ability to go to cons (seeing how I'm starting college and all) and some of the cosplays I'm working on. Cons:      I'm not going to be able to go to DragonCon and probably not gonna be able to go to NC Comic Con in November. However, I am looking at Queen City Anime Con in Charlotte and some cons in Georgia and Tennessee near the NC border. I am making plans to go to IchibanCon in 2018 unless if something comes up for college. Cosplays:      Amaterasu and Dr. Junkenstein are going to be completely held off until the summer unless if I can find some time to work on them during the school year. As for my current cosplays, I will have to hold most off during the school year unless if I can find some space for them in my dorm. Rey will be worn during summer cons to help with the staff and weather. Link will be all year (however props may no alwa...

I actually did a make up test for once in my life, but it was mostly an excuse to mess around with the ears and to start working on the wig for it. I don't really have much done for the actual costume in terms of the hat I had to improvise for now. But yeah. For the actual make up I really just put on some foundation and used a little bit of darker eye shadow on the nose and on the edge of the brow. I'm not a make up guru or anything, but that's what I do really when I do make up make up. I did the eye shadow thing around the nose mostly because I wanted to eliminate the look of the 'ball point' end of my nose, and to help it look a little straighter than it is With the wig, I had an old blonde wig that I got a couple years ago and I dont remember what it was for but I still had it. It was longer than desired so I decided to cut it a little, and it'll need some fixing in the back (that's not really shown in the pics), but other than that I'm pretty...

Just a quick update on future plans coming up shortly for my cosplays! I'm putting Dr. Junkenstein on hold for a little bit in order to quickly do Link from Ocarina of Time. It shouldn't take me very long outside of the sword and shield for Link, so I'm expecting it to finish in a short amount of time. Dr. Junkenstein is no longer going to have the tire, and the grenades are going to be changed (not sure to what but eventually). After I finish up Dr. Junkenstein, I plan on working on Amaterasu starting with the wig before the kimonos. Other pieces will probably be done throughout the next couple of months (ie: necklaces and Issun).  In a couple of months I'll also be remaking my Vince Heliotrope cosplay, and it will have EL Wire through it so it can light up! I'm excited for that! I also plan on going to Dragoncon 2017 and hopefully NC Comic Con Nov. 2017.

Alright! So, I'm taking a small break from working on other cosplays to quickly push out this one! I'm currently starting to work on Link (Ocarina of Time version), and going to go ahead and get this one done while I can and before I go off to college. So anyway, here are some small sketches I did at 3 in the morning with notes before I actually start posting things when I start on the costume itself within the next week. Sketches: Notes: Page 1 *We are mostly focused on the outfit for this page a) hat is made of same fabric as the tunic, tightens in the back b) elf ears w/fake piercings. (Will use spirit gum for attachment and some flesh latex to hide any gaps) c) tunic and undershirt are going to be made d) reg belt for the waist, make "belt" for the sword (I ended up calling it a shoulder strap. not really good with terms for this) e) make gauntlets f) white leggings (bought) g) boots Page 2 a) sword and sleeve printed (Ordering them 3D pri...
