Commission finished: Vash Coat from Trigun http://www.californiacosplaytimes.com/copper/albums/userpics/10004/normal_MVC-440F.JPG http://www.californiacosplaytimes.com/copper/albums/userpics/10004/normal_PICT2965%7E0.jpg http://www.californiacosplaytimes.com/copper/albums/userpics/10004/normal_MVC-4...

You guys are so great. :P I will never get any compliments from these costumes directly from other people because they no longer belong to me once I send them out. Since there isn't a brag board around here I thought this is the best place to display my newly finished commission work to claim some c...

Darktiger what is your usual time requirement for an order?

general rule with commissions is 2 months minimum for most commissioners

under 45 days is rush 30-50% markup

anything under 30 days is almost impossible (maybe with a 60% mark up)

you have a sewing machine?

there are plenty of suits like that that you can modify or embellish to look like the tira suit. Having something skin tight made is difficult for commissioners who don't live close to you and it can cost more then buying one and altering it yourself. So if you have some sewing skills I suggest you ...

But just to make sure, when you're speaking of "news paper cut-outs" you are talking about a pattern?

That is correct you are making a pattern for your shoe through a very unscientific way of measuring, known as draping.

thankies. :p You're posting around more lately. Having free time?

to get the shape you will have to have to make a few mocks with newspaper. wrap a piece of newspaper about the size of your shoe and get an indention then cut out around the lines. then try to estimate with that shape how much fabric you will need. I suggest trying a few newspaper cut outs before tr...

I have recently completed a sesshoumaru costume and I have noticed from previous postings that this costume is popular. If you need suggestions you can post here or PM me. http://www.californiacosplaytimes.com/copper/thumbnails.php?album=89 http://californiacosplaytimes.com/copper/albums/userpics/10...

Have you tried looking for loafers instead. Or you can sew fabric on top of a pair of shoes to get the right color and the fit of the shoe compared to shoe socks. If you don't like hand stitching you can always opt for hot glue just spread it thin and don't use too much. It will hold for one wear th...

Well if you don't like sewing you can get away with using a multitude of gromets aka eyelets. You can purchase a gromet press at joanns for $16.95 or one from Walmart for $9.95. The ones at joanns are of better quality. for costumes like kougas you can get away with stringing the whole costume toget...
