Shinobu-chan cosplay wardrobe

Shinobu-chan wears so many cute outfits during the series, I think I want to make them all! I also love the marker illustrations the artist has done for the series, I've tried to gather as many as I can:

Shinobu & Kaede-chan with Onsokomaru

This is the Anna Miller's waitress uniform.

with megane! (glasses)

Shinobu-chan neko-matta version!

Out on a safari.

She looks like a christmas tree XD

a cute little vest and pigtails

From the Sasuke episode,

Shinobu in school uniform pulling her "little sister" act.

Her regular garb, but I love this illust ♥

Mata ne!

Shinobu-chan in progress!

Despite my constant battles with the sewing machine, I was able to make lots of progress on my Shinobu costume last night! I also have almost finished the Sasuke ninja costume for my all purpose asian to wear :3

I'm pretty happy I can take Shinobu to the Morikami shoot! I'll worry about having more props (Onsokumaru!) and accessories later on.

Sewing frustration =_=

I've been working on and off on the Hanekawa costume, it's not a priority since there really isn't a group cosplay that I have to complete it for, but if feels like I've been working on this costume the most because of all the problems I've ran into trying to make it myself... and Koyomi's jacket.

Apparently it is almost impossible to find a pattern for a men's jacket, there are more patterns for women's but they're more business like, and those puffy sleeves~ pft, what a joke.



I kinda sorta learned how to make a pleated skirt:

pleat making contraption, made from scratch!

skirt test

skirt with waistband pinned

Except all these layers refuse to sew through the sewing machine =_= I've tried heavy duty needles, different tension settings, maybe it's the thread I'm using!?

All aspects of this costume have been too frustrating, I just don't want to do it anymore...



Instead I'll moving to Shinobu-chan YEY! Goodbye Tsubasa cat >_>

Birthday Wishlist!!

Some stuff I wants...





Annelotte from the Queen's Blade Series

Eventually I would like to do a Queen's Blade cosplay, and out of all the desgins this is the girl that appeals me the most (and that is not just downright indecent). They recently released the alternate/evil version for this character, and the figure with her original color scheme is becoming scarce :(

Oh.. Annelottu~ on eBay | on shopmania | on toystop

Shunya Yamashita's "One Voice" Artbook

Need I say more? I basically worship anything this man draws.

His previous artbook "Wild Flower" has been whored plenty on the internet, so I there's some scanned images, everytime we go to Nick's house, who has a copy, we take it out to ogle and the pretty designs.

Shinobu-chan

Also on my cosplay list... really wants her. So cute I could burst. AND has Onsokomaru!
