The circle moon thing is a little off it's rotation. It'll be a separate piece on top, so I can fix it. And I adjusted some of the design to look more symmetrical.
I bought some stupid cutting thing helper and didn't even use it bc the circles were too small. So I can return all that stuff.
I also got soap molds. Would any of you guys highly recommend AGAINST soap molds? Considering heat and or something else like weight? My Michael's didn't have that acrylic mold stuff so I went with second best. I figure I can paint or spray a gloss on top to give it a shiny look. Please someone speak up if you feel as if soap molds will be terrible bc I could return it and get my money back for it.
Got some shoes at Walmart. Tried a pair inside them to see how they'd work. (Thanks be to Miko for the best idea ever for height! I promise all the credit goes to you when ppl ask me!) I'll be like 6 inches taller. Woot! 5'8"!!! I think that's tall enough for Syaoran anyways.
Found the best circle things for the chest/cape clasp thingee. So I'll be simply gluing those together and spray painting them. With some add-ons on the sides.
Found a super tall curtain rod. Can't afford it. I'm putting money aside right now, so I've got to wait til I get paid.
I'm looking forward to painting my props. Haven't even started on my sewing bc I can't find belt buckles.
Blah blah blah. Enough about my costume. I've been working on it all day. It's my friend's b-day today so I'm going out!
There will be more staff progress tomorrow!
