Love Love Valentine's Weekend

hello

Yesterday I went to a Valentine's party. It was once again at Aniplay store. They had contests, sorteios, tournaments and delicious food once again. It was a two day event but I only went saturday. I met with my dear Friend Tânia and we took a few pictures together.
I cosplayed Jill Valentine with her S.T.A.R.S. uniform. I was a bit bummed because I mixed the cargo pants I was supposed to take and instead of hers I brought Zidane's so they were supper short:X. You can totally see it in the pictures so I choose to only post the close ups online:( I will have to, another time, make another shooting this time with the full cosplay. Next time though i'll tight the shirt too because shes really lose around my belly and paint the gun because I really dislike orange points:(

The venue was so full! Its like more and more people are coming to this parties, I couldnt even take proper pictures to post here, I think there was over 300 people that or so I've read. Its does gets a bit in the way to check the stuff you want but it is good that the quantity of "otakus" is increasing thus making it a more profitable market and one that holds better.

Place to sit and eat

and thats it for now:) hope i'll have more cosplay to post next time.

Updating

Just to keep this updated.

Ivé been sewing some stuff here and there and using some old fabric:

This is a little project I've been waiting to make for a long time! The official ones are way beyond my budget so I ordered the patch and made this from scratch. The fabric is Jersey Knit (malha de jersey), the only elastic fabric my machine seems to sew. I chose to add a hood and kangaroo pocket because its more my style and despite not being perfect I love the jacket!!

I now have a wardrobe with mirror so I can take full shots of my costumes! Also I would crop the photo but I'm on my sisters computer and her settings are Japanese so I cant work with photoscape:(




Ive also made some progress on my next cosplay, its Aurora from Dysney. I'll be making a full post about it but here some shots of the skirt and corset for now:

pressing seams

making buttonwholes

fabric cutting

fixing some some mistakes with pins

This is for Portoshoot on the carnival, when I was searching for fabric I encountered so many unfinished projects:x I will be making sure they have full priority from now on so no new plans hopefully though thats usually a typical cosplayer lie.
