Okay, I'm going to start actually using this journal.

I'm in the process if putting together a (new and awesome) web page, so this journal will be more of a costume progress update thingy than just a costume database. Also, I'm probably going to change the username from cosplay_bin to something that matches/is close to the domain name I get.

Right now I'm in the process of getting the fabric for 2 costumes.


Lucca Ashtear (Chrono Trigger)

and


Eterna (Depth Fantasia)

I have the fabric all picked out for the latter, and will probably buy it either this weekend or next. Having trouble locating fabric that I like for Lucca though....

I want to try to have this costume done by the end of this semester. So, I decided to start running some tests on what techniques would be best to create the bracers, and through the magic of multitasking, the pattern on the vest as well. I photographed the process so that I wouldn't forget.

( Round One )

All in all, I call the experiment a success.
