Update: Rita Mordio

I have nearly finished Rita :)
The yukata and blastia necklace are finished. All that's left are the boot cover and gloves and obi.

Toodles for now!

Update: Rita Cosplay

Well with a week left before KitaCon, I've really got to get a move on. I was hoping to have Rita mostly finished by now, but I've still got quite a bit to do. Lillymon's been postponed now probably until the May MCM Expo in London, or until the October MCM Expo :(

Anyway, I've come bearing updates! The tunic is now practically finished - all that's missing are the pockets.

And I've made her goggles. Yay :) Well, my Dad made them.

And I'm currently working on Rita's blastia necklace.

The above 2 are paper drafts

This is the front of the final piece

The blastia necklace is basically made out of a pizza box spray painted gold and a red glass bead which was sewn on to the cardboard.

Toodles for now :)

Fabric Ordered!

I have finally ordered the fabric for my cosplay! WOO!
That only cost me £20 :( But it will be worth it in the end - I hope.
I've also decided to try and make another costume in the 4 weeks we have left.
I've figured that if I can get Rita done this week, then my next one should be done in the last 3 weeks. Not that I'm going to rush Rita though.
So my next costume is Lillymon from Digimon! (Guess why? lol). She's awesome.
Here's a picture of her:

I've already figured out how to make her costume, even the wings, except from her hat. That's going to be tricky. And how her wings attach to her. But apart from that, it's all planned. I'm just waiting on the calico to make patterns :) Toodles for now!
