So... yes. My England cosplay is (officially) finished. All the minior adjustments that needed adjusting have been adjusted and it is ready for me to wear... Whenever it is I'll be able to wear it (likely Saturday at Youmacon unless a friend of mine demands we do a photoshoot over the weekend at some earlier time.) My father and I are ordering a pair of boots tonight (real army boots~) and those shouldn't take too long to arrive (beause Amazon is pretty good about their shipping.)
In other news...
I'm ordering a Prussia plush-doll. It's cute, adorable, and, at least I think, in his 'pirate-like' outfit. It's handmade by someone on DeviantART, but she's really good.
Here are a few examples. The Prussia isn't seen there, but I can safely assume he's probably as good as the others (I'd buy them all if I could, seriously... Or at least an America, England, Japan, China, and Prussia) They are $20 a piece (for fast-shipping) and, in the end, I doubt my father would be very happy if I spend that much money on some dolls. So I opted for Prussia. Because he's Prussia, there were two left, and... well, it's PRUSSIA.
Let's see... What else to ramble about today~
Oh! I KNOW!
So, when I get the chance to run to a fabric store after I get my next paycheck, I plan on making this...
Cheer, China fans. Cheer.
Why am I making this you may ask?
Well, because I think it's cute, honestly. That's my only reason. I think it's cute and I want to be able to carry it around when I cosplay China (which will be done before or after Prussia. I'm still trying to decide...) I may ask my relatives for Jo-Ann's gift cards or something so I can do both. Woo~ That'd be fun.
Then I'd just have to decide between Lion, England, Prussia, China, and Naoto for cosplaying at cons. I may have to, you know, go to more so I can use them more often. *snort*
I may end up selling my Tear Grants, cosplay. I don't use it that often anymore... *sigh* I wonder if I could make anything from it. Or if I could drop the lingering attachments I have to it. Which I probably could... But I'm not sure anyone would want it. Still, It's in the same condition it arrived in and I've only used it three times, so... I'd say it was a safe buy.
Any girls out there interested who might happen upon this? I'm sort of small, though... but it's pretty big on me.
So... Yes. That's all the rants for now. Maybe I'll stop by later to let out a small shout of joy for my new boots. My Persona 4 stuff should be coming in the mail soon, too. Wheeee...
