Yaaay, this has nothing to do with cosplay!! Except the fact that I uh, worked on my Sheik costume a tad bit earlier. The front needs a few pieces sewn on and then I'm done with the shawl/flap thing.
I added my youtube Subscribe widget to the bottom of my blog BUT here it is. I think it's cool XD
Just Switch Already!
Sheik Progress Yay!
I'm sorry Fado but I cannot break bread with you any longer. =_= I mean...you will be sent to the end of the list right now. I'm just upset with how my "tunics" come out. I suck at them. I FAIL and I hate it. So I don't want to work on Fado for a long time.
What does this mean, Miss Sheik?
This means Miki takes his place. Yay! I've been saving so many pictures of her so I can have all the right angles for the best references. I REALLY adore her outfit and voice. She's just so cute. I'm pretty excited for this costume. I've decided I would love to take her to AOD along with Sheik and Lavi. :] I know I'd love for Squalo to go as well but I'm not so sure I'll have enough time to cosplay as him during the whole 2 days of AOD. It's a sad thought, but a true one at that. I think I will work on Squalo after AOD because I'd love to take him to Fanime.
Right now I'm having trouble finding the perfect wig for Miki. Her hair color is always a little different in the pictures I have but it looks to me like it's an orange with like a hint of red or pink in there. It's a lovely color and I DID find a wig that could work but I lost the bid for it and so I am still looking. UGH. Oh well, I will find it.
OH YEAAAAAAAAH!!!!!!!!!!!!! I purchased something AMAZINGLY AMAZING the other night and I won't tell what it is until it comes in the mail. I will take one photo and post it online. I'm super excited about it too. It was a nice handful of monies but I had to. I don't regret it at all. Not one bit. :D
Anyway, I said I'd go like 20 mins ago on facebook so I am going now.
Vocaloid. OY!
I had sworn I would NEVER EVER EVER cosplay a vocaloid and guess what happened? I FOUND HER. Freakin' SF-A2 Miki, a new vocaloid from another program. She's so adorable. I love her hair (aside from the fact that long wigs suck..) and I ADORE her little cyber outfit. Her voice is kind of raspy in some songs and I love it. She's just too cute and after listening to a lot of vocaloid songs and attempting to learn the famous Love*Joy song I've come to accept the fact that I will indeed be cosplaying as a vocaloid. XD I'm sorry if I have disappointed any of my followers. Ah, I can't wait to be a cute little singing robot girl.~
Ahem. Aside from that I will be pulling out some fabric for my Sheik costume and working on it soon. Perhaps even tomorrow. I REALLY want to and need to. I don't know why I have been slacking ;__; AGHHHH. In anycase I think I'll add one of my favorite songs of Miki and then say good night. :3

;__; Oh wow.
I haven't written in this blog for like 24 days! Uaaagh. I wrote in my personal blog yesterday but it had been a while since I had written in that one too. A lot of happened since I got my job. Personal stuff and some cosplay progress.
I think I'll stick to sharing the cosplay progress right now...
I worked on my Luxray costume and it's like..70% completed! I'm still unsure of what wig I will use. I don't want to get a new one just for it so I might borrow a friends black wig, three of my friends have them...so I'll see once I'm finished with the costume.
I also worked on Fado, but the whole costume makes me mad. I don't like dealing with it..it makes me mad, the sight of it angers me! Okay, not angers..but I get irritated. :[ In anycase, I have tons of costumes I want done and now with the job..I have no excuse! I need to work on stuff, I just get lazy and hardly feel motivated at all. .__.; I also miss someone very special and I don't know when I'll hear from them.Bleh.p00p.....

Bodysuit Pattern....? :[ Ugh.
I worked on my Luxray costume the other day! It's coming out better than I thought. I had some mistakes here and there but it was a learning experience. Every (or almost every) costume I make has something new I have not done before on it. I think that's the best way to learn. :]
I haven't started on my Sheik costume but I did find some wigs that I really like. Specifically this one. I think it's a beautiful color and looks a bit cartoony which I want! The thing I'm having a problem with is the body suit. I was thinking of buying a pattern to make the base but I found none. Is it because they don't make them...or is it because I should just make the outfit in pieces? I was hoping to make one bodysuit and then add the different colors/shapes on top. But now I'm thinking I might just have to make my own pattern and make it all in pieces. I looked at some other Sheik cosplayers and there's a few I really like but no one has done the feet as accurate as I want to make mine. Maybe because it gets complicate? I don't really know. All I know is it makes me want to cosplay Sheik even more! It must be the competitive spirit I sometimes have. I want to be REALLY good, not to "Show people up" but because I loooove Sheik sooo much and am a huge Zelda fan. I want to show that in my costume. :]
Anyway, if any of you have any tips for me please feel free to leave a comment. I'd love any type of input. Also---I want to find the perfect red contacts eventually! ^___^; I just got to find a safe spot. I doubt my eye doctor will have red contacts just layin' around. People tend to lean toward blue and green contacts. XD Heheheheh.
Oh! I hope my friends have fun at Sac Anime. I stayed home and I'm okay with it actually~

Sheik Got the Job!
Yes I did. I got the job! I'm super happy to be working now. I will be earnin' my money and earning experience working with children.. eep!
It's going to be an adventure but I definitely need to grow up.
So on the topic of cosplay since this IS suppose to be my "nerdism" blog... I have been really leaning toward cosplay OOT Sheik again. I mean I never let the dream go. I just really think I am ready to make it. I have avoided spandex for a few reasons but I might...just might..cheat and work off an already made zentai suit. I don't know. It depends. I won't work with shiney. At least I'm hoping I can avoid it. :[ Any thoughts on this?
I really love Sheik. Obviously. So I want everything accurate. I will look for the perfect wig and I will get my eyes checked eventually for good contacts so that I can have the red eyes.
I even want to start stretching and perfecting cartwheels so I can do some awesome photo posin'.
I LOVE SHEIK. YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND. It must be perfect. Or close to that. ;__; She is just an awesome character. Yes, I refer to Sheik as a female. :P
On another note, I started playing Spirit tracks again. It's pretty fun and cute. Kind of annoying dealing with that..tower thing but uh aside from sneaking around bad guys, it's fun. :] I haven't been playing Harvest Moon as much but I'm in Winter of the first year and Julius has NOT asked me out. =__= How will I ever get married at this rate? I've given him soooo many presents and he only has 3 hears meaning we're just friends. This game made becoming more than friends way harder than it really is. Maybe I'm barking up the wrong tree...seeing as he loves perfume, roses and pumpkins but I dunno. I might have a chance! AHEM.
But ah..yeah. I posted a new video on my youtube today. You can check it out if you'd like. I think I will go now though. My tummy hurts. ;___;

A Day at the Park in Cosplay!
International Cosplay Day. It was fun! Only a few of us were able to attend but we still had lots of fun just goofing around. We had a few stares but there was this one guy who walked by and was like, "Nice cosplay!" and we were like "..... oh....thanks!!!" We weren't expecting anyone to know what we were doing because we live in such a "Small-hick-town"...kind of place. XD Yeah.....I mean I live in Hyrule.-cough-
In anycase! It was fun. We played in the playground area, took pics and made videos. I was going to upload a video but my computer was having issues with the program and was refusing to export the edited movie. ;__; So I can't upload it to youtube yet!!! Made me mad. I wanted it up last night. I'll try again though. I'm sorry. :[
I also texted quite a handful of people wishing them to have a happy International Cosplay Day!! Unfortunately my fiance doesn't cosplay so he said he wasn't celebrating it. I think he gets jealous of cosplay since it takes lots of time and money away... I don't know. He's a very inward person so dressing up + pictures are not his thing. XD It's fine....my friends were lots of fun and hilarious. But uh yeah. What did you guys do yesterday? Did you all dress up? :]
