My Cosplay Journal
Well my convention is less than two months away and I have been working on my cosplay. I don't have any pics yet of the whole thing put together put I took some pics of all the different parts


These pictures are from when I first started my Zelda cosplay, I pretty much rebuilt everthing in this picture. I still have the crown and sword but they still look like they do in the pic because I decided a bow and arrow would be cooler to carry around and I started making a new crown out of a different material. I still may make the sword but I think I will make it out of solid wood like I did my bow.

Progress pics of the front panel of Zeldas dress, the only thing that is 100% done right now... I like how it came out and I actually put a pocket in the back so I can carry around my car keys and money without a backpack or bag so I would detracked from my cosplay. smile

All I need for these items are the gems, which I ordered and now am just waiting for them to come in the mail and also i need to stain the wood on the bow and then paint in the gold highlights but they are really close to being finished heart

That bow is made of WOOD people... WOOD!!! I had my first experience with power tools and carved that baby out of a block of wood and I'm very proud of how it came out. Once I got over the fear that I was going to cut off my fingers it was actually a very fun experience. Now I want to make a bunch more stuff like Zelda's sword and some keyblades for Kingdom Hearts. At first I was just going to paint the bow with acrylic paint but than what would have been the point of me taking all that time to make it out of wood. So now I'm going to stain it a darker color and go in and paint in the gold details, that way you can see that it is a real wooden bow

Here is the pic I was going by

Holy crap, how do you make this stuff? It's amazing! I hope you put up a full picture of what you look like in the costume! It's looks so awesome, but I'm probably too small for it lol. Anyways, excellent job. wink
