Jean cosplay almost done!





 
I'm just melting here because they're so awsome ;___;
(this has nothing to do with cosplay and stuff but it gives me energy to keep going ~)


I cant remember taking a picture of that black part before so just in case i do it now! It mainly looks like that and then i just simply wrap it around my waist attaching it by two snap fasteners. And oh, i finally cut those straps to the back of the jeans. 

 
Then the upper part of harnesses or what ever they are again (i never learn the right 'names' for the cosplay parts lol) I decided to do black one as i still had some black fabric lying around my room haha.. I also wasted my money to a belt (17 euros -silent sobbing-) and those tiny parts that i used for attaching the upper part to my jeans. ( I thought of buying suspenders but i couldnt afford buying them and it was easier to destroy those..)

I cut two holes to the fabric and attached the belt to it by using textile glue, for my surprise it stuck nicely. (finally i did something right yey!)


Then the last parts were just simply attached by using a pop rivet (my new best friend). It took actually time because my best friend, the pop rivet, didnt want to behave nicely once again (sigh).. But i think it looks nice after all and was wort of doing anyways ~ I dont think I'm going to do the other parts of harnesses as the jacket covers most of them. I'm going to make some detailing, but not much anymore though.
And this is how it looks like on me. I'm sorry for shitty ipad quality but no can do lol.


So over 2 months have passed and this is what i've gotten done for now. I need to fix some things, just as my jeans (theres some stupid blue stains.. ) and to add black 'ropes' to 3dmg and some attaching stuff.. but not so much anymore. I dont know if im going to make the cloak, that'd be interesting though. I might to do it if i end up being bored and having some extra money. So the next photos/ updates will just contain some little details that im going to add before the con. Kawacon is going to be awsome! ;__;

''Is is really almost done already?''

Straps & belts, or whatever they are


I've been listening to this while sewing my cosplay costume, It's so damn good ;___; (It start's with a text saying 'work hard' how ironic ha..)

Anywayss, after I had sonmehow finished the 3DMG gear I moved working on the starps. The straps.. I thought it would be easier to sew them than making the 3DMG but well.. I've injured my fingers with the needle so many times for now that I'm loosing my mind.. lol


 I started by buying an old leather jacket (because buying 'real' leather was too expencive..) I paid 2 euros for ir and if i had bought leather from store it.. was around 22 euros i think.. I just simply used my belt to see how wide straps I should cut. 

 I started with these, and I think they were the most hard ones so far.. I sewed them to the jeans as it is easier to put them on :D


Then I attached the second straps, It looked like this on me ..
Then one moree .. xD I need to add that little strap there.. and decide what kind of straps im going to attach to the back of the jeans.. 


 So for now it looks like this on me. I tried to attach the boxes to my belt with a white rope but I think i bight to change it.. I just tested how it would look on me hehe ~ (sorry for the flash.. there wsn't enough light back then so.. :___: )

 And oh! I almost forgot.. I repainted the blade handles and added thos black lines to them. I just need to figure out how to attach that belt and the boxes to my waist.. That'll be a big problem.
