haru's marth cosplay

oh dear.
youmacon is in twelve days and this is all i have done:

i have to:
*finish my armour
*cut my bangs
*get a belt
*make gauntlets
*make boot covers
*finish cape
*finish tiara
*make my broach

anyways.
I figured posting it somewhere would make me feel shameful and motivated to finish xD

edit:
things that i finish from now until youmacon are highlighted in purple.

Trust me, I know what it's like to be time pressed...MCM expo is in 6 days, and I need to finish my prop xD

ffff, thanks guys. this shame/motivation thing is helping o n o
the plan for today is drafting patterns for my boot covers/gauntlets, finishing the tiara, coating the armour 3-4 times, attaching cape pieces, and starting the broach.
hopefully i'll have more done today x_x i already gave my armour one coat of sealer today! woo! that makes five out of 7-9! XD

i'll have pictures of the whole gang/youmacon pictures after the con probably.
link is all the way finished now, but ike, roy, pit, and i have work to do ; n ;

you have so much to do Haru-chan, *sends good vibes in your way* hope you get it done in time (your friends also) (:

Haruhi <3 · 10-18-2009, 09:59 PM

this motivation seriously helped.
so far today i:
*finished my tiara
*got a new idea for my broach
*drafted my boot covers
*FINISHED sealing my armour. (now i all have to do is paint and future clean it! woo! maybe i'll have time for weathering or 3-D effects now :'D)

and i'm getting ready to press, pleat and attach my cape! (aka- finishing it XD)
maybe i'll even paint a coat on my armour today. WHO KNOWS. bah, i'm excited.

edit:
oh god, pleating and sewing took like three hours XDD
oh old sewing machines.

Sakura_Gaara · 10-19-2009, 02:58 AM

wauw you did a lot Haru-chan! *ish happy for you*

you'll get everything done in no time, you'll see (:

ps. I hate sewing ._.

Haruhi <3 · 10-19-2009, 03:00 AM

bwah, thanks for being happy!
i feel like throwing a little party for myself by reading some yaoi bed-time stories, but i should probably go to bed :'D
i'm exhausted because i've been working for like 6-7 hours today! <3
i'm so happy to get things accomplished <3

my cape looks loads better than it did in the picture <3
it's fuller and the cowl is more even and what-not. ohoho, excellent.

ps.
i LOVE it!
(obviously) xD

How's the progress going?
BTW I have a feeling it's gonna be epic

Haruhi <3 · 10-20-2009, 10:22 PM

well, i got my broach half-way done and my armour's first coat of paint is on!
i can tell you, the broach is coming along way better than i thought it would.
and the armour looks a million times better already xD
and the cape looks better because it's actually uh, attached XD and the pleats help for the fullness of the cape.
i decided on getting my bangs professionally cut the night before the con at my hair appointment.
kind of cutting it short, but uh, still.

i'll probably end up buying a belt this weekend, and hopefully i can get a good start on my boot covers on thursday <3
i think that our group is going to turn out good too!
i'm not just saying that to say that- our cosplays have been going above and beyond my standards lately and that makes me really happy ; u ;

Edit: everything is falling into place and is going to work out perfectly.
i'll be done tomorrow or the day after, and hopefully i can have a picture up on thursday before the con. if not, expect lots after!
