For the wig, I would use <a href="https://www.arda-wigs.com/products/ferrari-classic?variant=27836534150" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.arda-wigs.com/products/ferrari-classic?variant=27836534150</a> in either wine or maroon ;3

2018-01-14 18:37:16 +0000 UTCDo you have any tips on making sleeves for Popola's suit and references for the back of the shirt-thing from OG NieR? Any wigs you'd recommend for it? Thank you :3

2018-01-14 17:36:51 +0000 UTCHave a variety of hoops to hold the fabric - it's the easiest way, especially if the designs are changing sizes. Lots of patience, don't push yourself too much, cause you will send up waking up and not liking what you did in the middle of the night :3 Also, be sure to mark your design ( if you do) with something that won't be seen, or can be washed - I had a problem with using something that made a stain later :<

2018-01-14 00:54:31 +0000 UTCI have a project with a lot of satin stitching in it coming up, and I've only satin stitched very few times. Do you have any tips or tricks for nice satin stitching?

2018-01-12 23:14:52 +0000 UTCI would make the designs of the tip, middle part and guard area flat out first. Then use different cylinder shape objects to give it the shape I need after heating it.

2018-01-12 22:43:40 +0000 UTCWould you give me the link of a photo in order to visualize your question better? I want to make sure I picture the right thing in my head before leading you to it.

2018-01-12 22:41:45 +0000 UTCThe cheapest way would be to trace the shapes and paint it on your flat sleeves, collecting all the references you can find and draw yourself the whole pattern first. One other solution is to create the design in Photoshop and print it on fabric. If you are patient enough I think that painting can look very beautiful, for that as long as you take your time with a steady hand and a shape tool to avoid going over the lines when you paint.

2018-01-12 22:40:32 +0000 UTCOh I did not think about worbla at all! I could use some of the scraps I have remaining for that. Thank you so much !!

2018-01-12 22:35:19 +0000 UTCThere is a way that I would do and did before is that you could make inverted shape and then with some soft clay you put it in the inverted shape and remove the clay and rince and repeat, clean with sand paper when dry. Explained differently, you make a shape that you like that is dry and hard, after that you could use some greasy spray to avoid it from sticking and could use worbla on top spousing the shape until it forms somekind of a mold. It's a cheating and cheaper way to make mold, it works well depending on the complexity.

2018-01-12 22:33:16 +0000 UTCI am trying to make Gilgameshs Ea from fate, how would i make the blade part complete circular as in the picture?

2018-01-12 22:29:39 +0000 UTCSeconding this! I'm curious how you guys did those

2018-01-12 20:39:45 +0000 UTCI hope this isn't to silly of me to ask, but for Nier, are the elaborate and detailed designs on his arm pieces painted, sewed, or printed on the fabric? Hoping to one day cosplay NieR1 and do it justice that you both have! <3

2018-01-12 19:54:09 +0000 UTCAny advice for anything involving zippers? Some of my armour I was aiming to improve upon needs zippers to be sewn on, though my current layering consists of a vinyl fabric on top, and a sheet of craft foam with 4ws fabric underneath, and my current efforts to get the 2-3 layers to work together have been giving me trouble.

2018-01-12 19:32:23 +0000 UTCHello hello ♡ It's me again ;-; I was wondering how you would proceed for creating repetitive shapes with either clay or any sculpting material without having acess to molds or casting? I need to create small tokens with a moderate amount of details for pauldrons and I have no money to do silicone casting and so on. Should I create a paper template? Is there a cheaper casting method I could use? Please halp senpais ;-; 💙
