As the title says, Anti the infinite holic luka is almost done! (^・ω・^ ) What is left to do is to sew couple buttons and add some ribbon and roses to the headdress. Not much is left and tomorrow I probably start to design how I'm gonna make Guchuko's outfit and scythe❤(ღ˘⌣˘ღ)❤ But now back to Luka I managed to sew the third layer of ruffle and sew lacing to it's place ( it has been pinned in earlier pictures). Those ruffles took forever!!! The skirt part has atleast 14 meters of white ruffles.
Picture of third layer of ruffle and lacing pinned
Lacing attached :3
Then I had to attach even more ruffles, this time for sleeves. The sleeves took together 6 meters of ruffles. So it's no surprise I was quite relieved after all ruffling was done ( ˇ෴ˇ )
After everything was done the dress looked something like this:
I had been just hurrying with the sewing, so There was string hanging everywhere, since my sewing macine don't automatically cut strings ( ≧Д≦) So After I cut all the visible strings I ended up having a plastic bag full of random strings XD
Yeiii ＼(^▽^＠)ノ
Then I made couple ribbons. It's kinda sad that the wig is so long that the ribbon in the back is not visible, so it feels like I made it for nothing. But it's already been made so there's nothing I can do anymore
Have I ever mentioned that I love ribbons? ❤❤
TADAH! Dress almost finished! So happy
And here's comparison, it still needs petticoat so therefore I'm holding it
The past few days I've been working on Anti the Infinite Holic Luka and it looks like I might be able to finish the costume by the end of the week (ﾉ´ヮ´)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧ After I finish the costume I start working on my beloved Guchuko ❤❤❤❤❤❤Can't wait to get my hands on Guchuko. But first things first, here's some WIP pictures of the Luka:
no zipper, skirtpart not attached yet
After I had sewed together the skirt part it looked way too flat so I ended up doubling the skirt part. I had to buy more fabric for it and even though I bought the exact same fabric the color was a bit more greenish than it was suppose to. The color doesn't differ that much, but in certain light u can see the slight difference in color.
No zipper, but skirt attached, JUST LOK HOW PRETTY IT LOOKS XDDD ヽ( ★ω★)ノ
It haz zippaa! (* >ω<) and a lot of random strings hanging XD
making ruffles
couple meters or ruffles, 22 meters or so
attaching ruffles
Overlockering seams
ruffling up the second layer
And the Costume looks like this after all those sewings (I'm gonna make a petticoat so the dress will be more fluffy):
Still a lot to do, mainly ribbons and ruffles. But I'm getting there (´∇ﾉ｀*)ノ It's already starting to look how it should look, and it's recognizable.
I does look like it, don't cha think?
ALMOST FORGOT! I did make this little outfit for an cafe's gig :3 U have seen the skirt earlier, but the top and bow are new (´∀｀)♡
I have made a little progress on luka's anti the infinite holic outfit. Not as much as I was hoping for because I have been busy with schoolwork and hobbies. and when I have had time I have spend it doing nothing or sewing something else than luka XD But anyways here's some progress:
ironed seam and seam to be ironed soon - the magic of ironing
parts put together ( zipper is going to the backseam and I haven't yet sewed shoulderseams)
When I had cut the skirtpart and sewed them together, I realized that it's way too small. I have to make the skirt two times wider than it was in the begining, so it's not really a big change. But to make it I have to go buy more fabric.
the satin ribbon is not attached yet, I just wanted to know if the ribbon I bought was the right size. I think it's perfect :3
This is whar the dress looks like now. It only has one sleeve attached and it needs still a lot of work... But a little progress is better than no progress at all....
And when I was supposed to do Luka, a skirt happened:
About my other cosplay plans for this year, I've kinda decided to go for Guchuko, since I get so excited when I think about cosplaying her. The wig and props are going to be challenge for me, but I already have a plans how to do those. Let's see if they work out as planned XD
For patterns I used basic pattern which I altered to fit for Luka's outfit. It wasn't really hard to alter patterns since the dress is quite simple. Though the skirt part takes a little patience, because it has 5 layers in my version (*´ω｀)o
Above you can see how the patterns are altered (unfortunately there is no picture's of altering the sleeves or bows ;___;)
second step: cut the fabrics. -- still in progress
Here are the fabrics...
and here I have already cut the black parts. white parts are still waiting to be cut.
So not much progress really but better than nothing, right? ＼(^▽^＠)ノ
I might have talked my cosplay plans for the future before, but I might as well talk about them again ( ﾉ^ω^)ﾉﾟ
Though these are more like a what I hope to do than what I'm actually planning to do. Some of these I have been wanting to cosplay for ages, but some of them are quite new on the wishlist.
Luka - anti the infinite holic
First I'm going to put Luka here. I have already cosplayed Luka, though not with this outfit, obviously. I'm not a big fan of the particular song this outfit is from, but I'm a big fan of Luka and I also happen to like Lolita-like outfits... so therefore I want to cosplay this ｡◕‿◕｡
Guchuko from potemayo
The second character and outfit that is in my wishlist is Guchuko. This cool laserbeaming creature from potemayo has been on my wishlist for ages. I love the anime and Guchuko (◍•ᴗ•◍)❤
Then there is chobits... Chii has so many cute outfits I want make (´▽`ʃƪ)♡ But there is also Kotoko and her cutiepie traditionalish outfit ❤
Kotoko from chobits
Chii from chobits
Then there are couple pinkhaired girls ~ amuto, misha and rabi~en~rose. What can I say, I really love cute characters... ehehhe
Rabi~en~rose from Di Gi Charat
Amuto from shugo chara in her amulet spade outfit
Misha from pita ten
Luka has also another outfit i have fallen for, that is her geisha outfit. It's from project diva. It looks just so awesome I can't resist it. XD
Oh So pretty !
And the list goes on, next is up Vanilla H, from galaxy angel, though the outfit I wanna make is from galaxy angel II where Vanilla is older. Unfortunately there aren't many good pictures on the internet of this specific outfit, but luckily I have manga's where I can see the full costume.
Then there are some revealing costumes on my wishlist which I haven't made earlier 'cause I don't want to wear any too revealing outfits, doesn't matter if it's for cosplay or not. The first one is Meroko from full moon. The outfit isn't that revealing, but I have still consider it a bit too revealing for my taste. I just want to make it because of meroko :3
The second one is Sejuani from League of legends. She's my favourite champion in the game, but once again her outfit.. showing skin a bit too much... I can't imagine how she could survive surrounded by ice （。ˇ ⊖ˇ）♡
I could continue this list forever but I think it's better to end it before I get too excited. And what would be a better end than post all the rest characters I want to cosplay in the future - or atleast those I can remember at the moment yes the list does go on and on, I want to cosplay also Totoro, zakuro from tokyo mew mew....
Yuzuki yukari from vocaloid
Miku Hatsune from Vocaloid Her outfit from LoL
Ahri from league of legends
Sheryl Nome from Macross frontier
Fin Fish from Kamikaze kaitou Jeanne
ah, there are too many awesome characters and outfits.. hopefully I can manage to do some of these in the next year :3
