The biggest issues I had with this costume is not being able to see, mainly because foam needs to be added to the inner of the mask, it kind just smooshed my face. And I'd like to redo the slippers.

Scarlet Witch revamp




This Scarlet was of my own design. I wanted something comfortable. Plus going to SDCC wearing a cape isn't fun. I wish I had done underwear rather than shorts, but it was nice to have pockets.

Cost
Shorts: $10 generic store
Shoes: $30 Ebay
Leather cuffs: $15 event
Top: $7 generic store
Jacket: $30 ebay 
Fabric Paint: $5

total: $97 give or take

Bottoms - Shorts were originally pants made into cut offs
Jacket- Originally a large mens jacket, my friend Michele helped me take it in after I chopped the arms off. And I painted the back with black fabric paint. 



Pinup Sailor V

Pinup Sailor V


Cost:

Dress: $40 Ebay
Wig: $15 Ebay
Shoes: $16 Ebay
Glasses: $30 Etsy user Akujinscos
Gloves: $3 Ebay
Bows: Ribbon spool $10
Necklace: supplies already owned


 Construction:


  • Bows were self made with a hot glue gun. For the front and back bow I glued pin backs to them so they are removable. This helps when sitting, if they were sewn on would have smashed the back one with my butt. But more importantly, it makes it so I can still wear the dress as a normal outfit AND be able to throw it in the wash. The orange button was made from a large googly eye and painted over in orange, then hot glued on carefully. 
  • Necklace was made from a piece of white ribbon. Used yellow fabric paint for the moon. Tided in a bow in the back under the hair. 
  • Wig was self styled. Victory rolls, hair spray, bobby pins. 



Pinup Sailor V was a very easy, cheap, and comfortable cosplay. I wore it to Moon Crisis: A Sailor Moon Tribute Art Show and won judges choice in the cosplay contest.

Harry Potter Wands!

     So, I saw this epic tutorial HERE and gave it a shot. I made these wands for a Harry Potter gift exchange on reddit :] Supplies: Glue gun, chop sticks (longer the better), beads, brown acrylic paint (more than one shade), and a acrylic pain top coat.
     Top wand's end has a cool texture to it. I used beads in the glue and popped them out after the glue cooled. the beads left little round crevasses that gave a neat texture. The bottom wand has beads still in it. Giving it the bubbly look. Everything else is just hot glue. :]
