Cosplay In 20 Days Or Less: Day 10

            Cosplay in 20 Days Or Less: Day 10

Recap: I am getting roughly 3 hours of sleep each night. Someone please help! (I put that because no one reads this.)


The sword is cut, the tail is shaped, the blazer is washed and the paint has dried.... You know what I remembered though?
The school ties. One of the signature pieces of the cosplays and I forgot about them xd....

I will figure it out.... Onto the pictures!


 This is the (first coat) painted tail flames. All and all that is hot glue melted to look like little sprouts of hellfire... literally...
It is melted onto a Christmas ornament Hehehehe....
(This pic is with flash)
 This one is without flash. I will still do a few more coats of paint but after that I plan on gluing fur around the base of the ornament and letting it fluff up around the flames. I will most likely screw that up :)
 Now hot gluing Ornaments and painting them is something that I have been doing for a while. This is Calcifer the fire demon from Howls Moving Castle, I made him using the same method. He also lights up and will eventually say "May all your bacon burn!"

 
 






 
This is a Chidori (Jutsu from Naruto) that I made.
Same method. It also lights up.
Please excuse the background mess. My room got cleaned...
I am possibly moving sometime in the next semester
so I don't see the point in unpacking everything -_-


I don't have a Sasuke or Kakashi cosplay yet so I have never actually used this prop...
I just made it on a whim.

 Cutting out the sword pieces...
I had to be reminded to breath.
This was so stressful. I didn't do much prop wise today but my heart cant stand anymore stress so I just decided to take it easy.

  Karera came and rescued me just in time. I was fumbling with the Contact Cement when he got home from work and he came over and totally saved the project. I am going to have to find something to use to brace the tsuba because atm it is weak. I ended up having to make
 the sword in 2 parts because my poster board wasn't long enough.

<----This is the tail after I wrapped it in electrical wire. That was tedious but I will do it another 1000 times compared to the sword. After that I taped the flame end onto it and called it quits.

So that's all I have for today :/ Oh, I did finally put the chain on the jeans that I will be wearing. So that's nice!
Heh... I'm screwed aren't I?
Well I am feeling a little discouraged at the moment so I am going to go die inside just a little bit.
Hope you come back to read tomorrow, I promise to try and be in a better mood! :) I leave you with this GIF of Calcifer.
