I thought I'd pimp this out here too~

http://stores.ebay.com/FANTASY-SHEEP-COSWIG-LAND


They have GORGEOUS wigs, and I'm doing a group order for them. I want to order in December or January. I also want to get an order worth at least $200 so we can get free shipping, but we'll see how it goes.
JOIN MY G.O., TELL YOUR FRIENDS, SPAM THIS FOR ME. ♥
Don't see a wig that'll work for you? Ask Fantasy Sheep if they have a good wig for your character [including images helps] as they probably do! I've done it and they've listed wigs for the character I needed that they didn't have up before, as well as told me which other wigs of theirs might work well for me.
They simply have so many wigs that they aren't all listed all the time.


So far we have:
myself [2 wigs; APH Prussia wig & short blond wig; $44]
Kayla [not sure yet]
Lyn [1 wig; APH Germany; $22]
total - $66

totals don't include shipping obviously, as we're trying to get free shipping. If I have to ship the wig to you you'll pay for shipping. I'm in the USA, so if you're closer to the east coast than China, shipping should be cheaper. I'm also willing to bring the wig to the anime convention Animazement [the only convention I currently attend] and give it to you in person [for free obviously] if you'd rather.

Sorry if the image stretches any f-lists. OTL

Well, I've gotten one pin done for AA! I'm going to do a non-chibi pin next and see what I like most, then go from there.

Ah... I just figured I should post this here too, as I did it on FB so HEY, WHY NOT? Also I'd love any/all feedback critique. Esp. on the style of the chibi, as I never draw chibi so yeah, it was a bit weird for me.

Does the flag BG look okay, or should it be flat with no filter on it to make it look all textured? I'd like some opinions on it, as I keep going back and forth between liking it and not. xD;;;

Edit:
I've just gotten done a kolkolkol pin and a Heartless pin. I feel so productive. xD

Edit 2:
I've gotten a North Italy pin done too! I feel so accomplished today! :D

Feel free to critique/comment/whatever any of them! Feedback is loved. ;3;

Okay, I have two styles I'm playing with for buttons and stickers for Artist Alley. I don't know which people would like more though. Any thought/opinions on which I should go with would be very appreciated. ♥

obviously these would be cleaned up and coloured for buttons, but you get the point~

Well, I've never made a hat before and boy does it show. Everything is too big. @_@ I know what I've done wrong though, so the next hat should look better. It took about two hours to make [including the time it took me to make a pattern for it]

a picture! )

As I said, too big [even the face I put on looks huge and tbh I sort of half assed it as I already screwed up on it by that point anyway haha] and all but feel free to critique or whatever, idk.

[Also, I'm thinking I'd charge about $12-$15 per hat when I make some good ones. Too high? Too low? I am awful at making decisions. xD;]

I'll be doing Artist Alley this year [if I can swipe a table] with two other girls, and I'll be selling buttons, bookmarks, prints, hats, and stickers. It's my first time but I think I can manage this... I'm mainly selling Hetalia, Kingdom Hearts, and Phoenix Wright/Apollo Justice as I don't have a lot of money for merchandise and I want to go with stuff I like/know. Once I get my feet in the water and figure out what sells, what doesn't, and what I should have had, etc., I'll get more ~daring~, but until then I'll just bring a few of everything and hope to at least break even. I still haven't figured out pricing for everything but I've been planning a lot so all should go smoothly. The hardest part will be getting all this drawn in time. As I have very little at the moment.

Well, I'm off to go work on a hat or two [maybe I'll make one in doll size too and see where that gets me?] and try to sketch up another button. [As even with a few months until the con I'm already freaking out about getting everything done in time. orz]

I realized some newer characters [like Australia, Vietnam, Holland, Thailand, etc... I tried not to include the tiny, barely existing characters, though I figured one or two what have been seen in strips or something might be good to have] weren't in it so I've added them, and I've also put a "on top" section with a random gender for the het section. I was thinking of adding human names as well [something like this.], but I'm not sure if that would be nice or just unneeded clutter. Anything else you can think of I should do? Or do people not even use this thing anymore? xD;

[I'd post this on the anon meme but I'm not sure that's even still going... I know life got distracting for me awhile back and I stopped going to it, and since then I really haven't kept up with what's going on over there. I've miss a LOT, I'm sure. "OTL]

Okay, due to the sad, sad Hetalia cosplay wigs on ebay I've decided to try to make one of the more difficult wigs to see just how easy it is to fuck up a Hetalia hairstyle. I may sell it after, as this is just a practice/for fun kind of thing [and I've wanted to attempt to do a wig styled after Korea for ages! It looks like such a fun challenge!] but only if it actually turns out nice. But hey, who knows; maybe I'll fall in love with it and keep it for myself. xD

I've never done something this complicated [the closest I've come is my Canada wig; which seemed to get it's fair share of love for such an unnoticed character ;D] but I think it could be a fun thing to try out. I have it all planned out, but it actually going as planned is a whoooole other issue, so I figured I'd keep track of my progress here so if I do mess up I can try to find out where it was I messed up, or maybe even get some tips/advice about this!

I want to make an accurate wig for Korea, which includes the little face in his hair curl. my concern is how small it has to be. I don't want to make the curl and face huge, but I may have to make it a little big.

I have pictures of the basic idea. It's rough, uneven, and not even the right colour, but it gives you an idea of what I'm doing.

Read more... )

I'm still looking around on ebay for a nice, long-ish wig [so I can cut it to the right length and keep an extra piece for the curl] and once I find one I can get it and go to town. I have most the supplies I'll need and I can do a few test runs with the long pieces of hair I cut off.

I'll make another post when I get more done.

Again, any tips/advice/etc. would be awesome! :D Thanks!

P.S. If all goes well I'm thinking of making little Korea hair curl clip ons for people who already have a good wig and just want the curl; or for people who just want to wear it randomly or something. xD Anyone even remotely interested? I know I'll probably make one or two just for fun/practice and I thought I'd throw it out there.

uugh, nothing I'm drawing is turning out right, and I can't seem to write more than a paragraph at a time. I'm not happy with my latest doodles and am missing my tablet a lot. :| I have a fic to write for a friend's birthday and I'm only at about 1500 words, which is a lot for me, but the story isn't near done [I'll probably need another 1000 words or so] and while I know what I want to happen and am enjoying it I just don't find the words flowing like they usually do.

Overall life isn't bad I suppose, but these artistic blocks are so annoying.

I've bought more books, maybe I'll go read one of them for a bit. [although, knowing me, I'll just end up continuing to re-read HP:GoF... I still need to finish The Jungle Book and Let Me Go. OTL]

Okay this didn't turn out as ranty as I thought it would, so much as me just complaining about stuff, but whatever.

This is Kirichan_, I've renamed to iamSylar, just because I'm tired of such a blah, weeaboo name and was lucky enough to be given a rename token and figured I might as well have a fun, fandom-y name. :)

I totally need a Sylar icon now haha

Oh man, I really wish I could do this. *__*



EDIT:
Also, I have books. :DDD They were all $1-$2 [paperbacks $1, hardcovers $2] and I got all excited and got a bunch, because I can not pass up that sort of deal. I haven't read any of these, so idk if they're good, but they seem interesting and for such a good price I didn't want to pass anything up, so I didn't put many back. xD;;;
List of books and pictures )

Aaaaand now I just need to find a place to PUT them all. OTL

I still also have to read Watership Down, Lolita, An Honorable German, and a Murakami book I've checked out of the library. xD; idk when I'll get around to reading all these books; I'm a slow reader anyway... orz

Okay, I'm seriously tired of this lj name and now that I have a rename token I want to use it. The name I wanted is now taken, so I can't think of what I should rename to. There was an lj comm that had good names up for grabs listed, but I can't find it for the life of me. :/ And LJ's purged names list is cluttered with too many crappy names to be very helpful. Any help thinking of something or pointing me toward the lj comm for good purged names would be awesome.

Either way I'm going to change this account name eventually. OTL

for those of you who don't know, a few days ago another little kitten [who looks a LOT like Charlie] showed up. We assumed it was the third kitten, and that he'd been separated all this time.

Well, FIVE more kittens just showed up[literally just now], so we really don't know what to make of this any more.

EDIT:





These were the only pics I could really get of them.

Well, I'm 19 now.

I almost got my tattoo today, but then I hung out with Kemi and didn't go through with it. I want it, but I feel like getting it now would be rushing it. I've been wanting the tattoo for two months, so while I've wanted a tattoo for years, I feel like I should think it over more first; just because.

I had fun hanging out with Kemi, we made fun of Twilight and watched Hetalia. It was a pretty chill day, but I really enjoyed it. I got some money and two DVDs, too. :3

okay, I've been updating on twitter a lot, but I figure I should make a real update here real quick.

First, and what I'm sure is most interesting for people other than me, is that we are keeping both Charlie and Sam. :) How many cats does one have to have to be a crazy cat lady? Because with 8 cats/kittens and the wild cats we feed, I may just be one. xD If nothing else I'm ready to cosplay Greece.
The kittens and their mom[who we can't keep; she doesn't get along with our other cats] are getting fixed atm, and we'll pick them up later today.

My wigs arrived for Marth and Russia. I looove the colour of the Marth wig. It's perfect. I'm getting wig heads for them tomorrow hopefully, and then I'll cut them.

Speaking of cutting; I got a haircut. It's super short now; probably the shortest I've gone yet. I love it.

Also, the beret I ordered for my Smeargle Gijinka cosplay came today~ I've been wearing it randomly and feeling French. And the back of my neck feels a little cold now after the haircut, so I've been wearing a scarf at home. I'm quite French, really. Does this make me French-Canadian? My bb says all I have to do now is grow some facial hair stop shaving.
Vanilla runs away from me with my beret on; I don't think she likes the French much. :/

a picture ~just because~ )

and that's really all I can think of to update about. I thought I had more to say. ._.
 
 
Emiko Akimoto
Well, we have more kittens on our porch. We wont be keeping these, though, sadly. We have six as it is, so yeah...

We've been taking care of the mother for awhile, as she's either been abandoned or is being neglected. Her kittens seem to be about two months old, and there are two, but there might be a third.

One is black and white, and mum named him Charlie as he has a little Charlie Chaplin mustache. The other is all black, and we've named it Sam, since we aren't sure of it's gender yet and Sam can work either way. Also, because I mentioned that the main character from my favorite book was named Charlie, so she asked for other character's names in the book, and one was Sam.

I don't have a picture of Sam, but I do have one mum took of Charlie.

14 June 2009 @ 09:05 pm
Well, Animazement 2009 is done, and I'm already getting ready for next year. I'm going to be putting as much time as I can/need to into making Marth from SSBB. I have all the cape fabric, so I'm going to start on that. But first, I want to make the armor; since the cape will need to drape over it, so I'd like to get it done first. It may also help me figure out a good way to drape the cape in the front. I've never made an outfit myself like this, let alone armor or a sword. I've done props and wigs, but this will still be a fair amount of work. The armor, actually, doesn't seem that hard, and I want to get started on it soon. I need to find a place I can buy larger sheets of craft foam, and also thicker craft foam for my base. It'll then be covered with styrene, or if that doesn't work, poster board. Sealing paint on craft foam seems annoying, so I'll definitely cover it with something. I'd prefer styrene, but having a back up plan is ALWAYS nice. xD But this means I should have something to put it on while making it. Some pillows and stuff may work, since I don't want to make a dress form if I don't have to. I'm lazy like that. :D

As for the boots, I've realized my Hungary boots SHOULD work quite well if I just make boot covers for them. I might as well use them if I can. :3 I also need to work on the headband; I want to cover it and then add some detailing, and maybe find a new/different gem for the top. The one I have is okay, but... eh.

I also need to look around for good gloves; I'm tempted to try and make my own, but I'll try shopping around first.

There was a wig I LOVED at cyperous I wanted to use for Marth, but last I knew they stopped shipping to America, so yeeeeah. Time to go back to shopping around. The nice thing? It will only need MAYBE some cutting, and MAYBE some crazy minor styling. Unless I find something ~perfect~. So this will will be super easy to do and I doubt I'll need to put it on a wig head. Which is awesome.

Oh, and I KNOW I'm going to freaking DIE in this outfit. I'm thinking maybe wear it at the con for idk, a little bit of a day, and then do some around town photos when it's cooler. Unless I can, idk, put tiny fans in the armor or something haha. xD

Oh, and I also plan to be gijinka Smeargle, but whatever. [My inner artist could not resist haha] That's beyond simple and just for fun. I'll also be bringing Canada back, as I barely wore him before. I still WANT to be Russia, but idk if that'll happen.[I also need to ask my bb if I can borrow her pipe; since I like it and don't really feel like making my own OTL] I wont know for a few months yet, so as it stands my list includes Russia but may change. And Klavier... I should have time to pull him together.

Okay I'm done rambling now. :D

I love love love this series, but only a hand full of my friends seem to know about it. Well, the first few episodes are now on youtube, so go watch. If you like it you can look into finding the rest of the episodes to watch; as all of the first season is NOT on youtube. Slayers Next is season two, don't go watch that next.

Don't want to watch on youtube? Fine, go to Hulu and watch it there, then. They have more episodes than youtube, by the way.

Anyway, I just thought I'd throw this out there, since I really need to rebuy this series sometime and want to get more people into it. It's a pretty old anime but I still enjoy it. [aaand I'm awful and haven't watched the new season that was released a while back. OTL I got up to about ep7 and then just never finished... I'd rather buy it than watch it online so I'll just have to wait and look around for it I guess, since I haven't seen it on dvd yet, and I've heard Funimation licensed it, so yeah.]

I'm excited, but I'll have to get up early. @_@ He's on one day at 7am, the next at 5am, and the day after that at 10:30am. Well, my sleeping schedule is about to get fucked. xD I'll take screen caps if the lag isn't too bad. And post the other ones I took from when he was on Mr. Brain. They're on another comp so yeah.

Oh, and the first show, the one at 7am... the Black Eyed Peas are also on it. It's... an interesting mix of guests, I'll say that. xD

I'm thinking sleep early and get up at 6 or so when he's on at 7am so I can tune in an hour early and try to avoid some lag... and then sleep late after that, and stay up until the 5am show and sleep when it ends at 5:30 and not sleep in any so I'll be good and tired to get up at least an hour for the 10:30 show... maybe earlier, it depends on how bad the lag for the last two shows have been, so I can't quite say yet when I should get up for the 10:30 show.

After all that I can start trying to sleep like a normal person haha.

uugh I'm tired why am I still awake? :|

Gackt is going to be on tv tomorrow. I wont be getting much sleep then either haha.

aaand apparently I'm not on automatic billing? I'm not a paid lj member now but I don't really care I guess. I'll just be a non subscribed user until I realize again why I like having a paid account and need to find some cash to start paying again lol~

I need to use my DW account more. I took a nice name so I really should do something with it. Maybe I'll rip some more CDs for the jmusic comm or something. Or if I can get some Hetalia cosplay photos from my bb [your mom did take pics right?] I can post them here and there; since I was cosplaying during the photo shoot and thus have no pictures of myself. OTL

Oh, and Squeeky sent our scavenger hunt photos in... don't ever ask me to take a sexy picture, I have no idea how to be sexy [with a GUNDAM no less] and it clearly shows. But I'm good at standing by things and getting friends to kiss for more points so I'm not a totally worthless addition to a team. :D?

I'll share this though, because I saw it on the way to the con and found it amusing. [/dork]

I'm surprised I got such a good picture in a moving van. My camera usually makes things look blurry with the slightest movement, so yay~


okay yeah idk I'm tried. I guess I'll go sleep now; no one is online anyway.

And the people fixing it need to keep the back door open, so the kittens are in mum's room with the door shut; as they're inside cats. [There are too many dogs and shitty people around for us to feel okay letting them out.] ...Okay, they were. Mum went to check on them and two got out of her room; Gackt and Joshua, and they are now in my room, since she didn't want to risk more getting out to put them back in. So I'm sort of stuck in my room too. I'm okay with that though, I just feel bad for the cats. I know they don't want to be stuck in here. I opened the window for them but they're STILL [understandably] unhappy. And Joshua almost got outside a moment ago when he got out of mum's room, so we need to keep them shut in somewhere... :/
EDIT: They're back in mum's room.

In other news it's Tuesday, making Animazement three days away[two if you don't count today]. :D

Edit: It's 5:15 and we just now have air~ :)

I'm still trying to get things done; our AC dieing REALLY threw me off, but I made the case for my Canada glasses and now all I have to do is trim wigs and finish my Hungary boots. I'll do the boots tomorrow, and when we get the air fixed I can mess with wigs. Because I need fans on; it's so freaking hot here. And it's raining so we had to shut all the windows. :/

Anyway, how is everyone else?

I got more cosplay shopping today; just general stuff we'll need for the con like hand sanitizer, ear plugs, cups and plates, etc. Now I just need to finish up last minuet cosplay stuff and start packing.

Hopefully things are going well for everyone else.

Two weeks. This is just crazy. I need to start really getting ready and stop hanging out with people now. xD Yeeah, I'm not having a repeat of last year. My bb still needs to get her wigs. I'm not sure why I still have them, I just do. "OTL I'd bring them for her but I reeeeally don't have room. :/ Hell, I need to down size as much as I can as it is. I only need to trim my Canada wig, get a case for my Canada glasses, and finish the trim for m Hungary boots. What about the plushues? ...I'm going to try to find time for them, but my bb said she'd make Austria for me. :D ♥ ily. c:

I still can't believe how ready I am for this con. I mean, seriously. I'm usually buying last minuet things and trying to finish stuff. Not that I don't have stuff to do and all now, but it's not stressful like it usually is. It's really nice. Of course, I haven't gotten money for the wigs I have to order/cut/style/what-have-you yet, so there's do there's that. :/ I really don't mind, I just hope it doesn't cut it too close, or I don't know how I'll pack and do last minuet things when I have wigs to work on. @_@ That's if they arrive in time. I mean, two weeks REALLY isn't a very long time guys. IDK, I guess I'm just worried something will go wrong. "orz

Tomorrow I'm going to do ironing; like ironing the flags and stuff, and maybe trim my Canada wig. I need to get something done, it's getting crazy close and the "oh shit it's going to be here any day now" feeling is setting in and I reeeally want to get something done.

Hey AZ con goers; the APH photoshoot will be at 10:30pm on Friday. We'll just meet up in the lobby and go from there, I suppose~ :) I don't care if you're cosplaying Hetalia or not; you should totally come hang out. ♥

Obviously I want to go to a NOIZ concert and I'll find more panels to go to, but these are just the few that caught my eye. And there are a lot I want to go to that look interesting; but until I have some descriptions I'm not saying one way or the other. So I should finish Roxas' Peter's faceup and make his Sealand cosplay already. xD; And yes until he has a real name I'm calling him Sealand/Peter. "OTL

wow, only twenty days left! @_@ This is crazy... Progress has slowed a bit, but due to lack of room in the van [packing all those flag poles and my sitar will be fun haha~] I may have to drop Klavier, so I haven't touched the wig yet as if I'm not even bringing it I can spend my time doing other things.

This also means that, of all the things I OMG HAD TO DO, the biggest thing has now dropped off my list. So, while I don't want to drop him it would make my work load much lighter.

Also my Canada glasses haven't gotten here yet so I'm kind of freaking out, but they're coming from England iirc so this wait is normal and I need to stop being paranoid. edit 2: iieee they arrived today and I love them! I'm wearing them now to get used to the feeling of wearing glasses; as I barely ever wear even sunglasses, so yeah. xD But I'm thrilled they arrived. :D

and now to go rush order a wig for a friend. Because she swears she can pay me back. She's mailing the money soon, but it wont get here in time, so we'll see. :| I know I'm taking a risk of being out $36; but if she doesn't give me the money she isn't getting the wig; so I'll sort something out... xD edit: I recounted just to make sure, and it wont get here in time so yeah, not ordering. I've left her a message but she's offline.

Let's see, what else... oh, I helped my bb make a plushie the other day. I should be working on my OWN plushies I have to make, but you know, whatever. xD; [Gah, I'm not looking forward to all the layers of Austria's hair or making his clothes. I'm going to try and do that this week though. Modifying Hungary boots > plushies. :3]

Comment with words(s) that make you think of me, that you would describe me with, or that you think just fit me. Anything is fine; positive or negative, one word or ten words, etc., I'm down with whatever. This isn't a meme thing, you don't have to repost it on your journal or whatever, but you can; I'm just really curious what sort of words people will say. Maybe I'll even learn something from it. Anon posting is on iirc if you want to say anything without me knowing it's you or whatever. This post is public but if you don't know me well don't feel you have to say anything, but if you want to go for it. Even if you know me really well you don't have to do this; but I am really interested so I'd like it if at least someone humored me haha. No sentences; just words. :)

Thanks.

Okay, Animazement is 26 days away! 25 if you consider the fact that I'm not doing any of this until tomorrow... Anyway, I thought I'd make a bit of a check list for myself and make it public so I'll feel extra committed to getting it all done. Trust me I'll just feel more like I need to finish stuu if people know about it. xD

[x]-cut Canada wig
[x]-touch up the Larxene wig
[ ]-modify Hungary boots
[ ]-touch up Demyx wig
[x]-buy gloves for Hungary
[x]-get some sort of Canada themed shirt [EDIT: I made one. HUR HUR I'm such a dork. :B Now I just have to buy it and I can check this one off...]
[ ]-make plushies of Austria, America, Canada, and maybe others; like Prussia. [...this is mainly because it'd be cute to carry them around, like the Austria one can peek out of my pocket when I'm Hungary, but sort of just because I want to make plushies. ._.; I want to eventually make all of the Nation-tans. xD; I still need to finish making the other Organization XIII plushies...]
[ ]-make Sealand cosplay for my MSD [make patters, cut fabric, sew, do his faceup, and cut his wig]
[ ]-Make England cosplay for my SD [make patterns, cut fabric, sew]
[ ]-Start other Hetalia cosplays for dolls if I somehow have any time left. [make patterns, cut fabric, sew, mess with wigs, find accessories]

DAYS LEFT

None of this includes packing or figuring out how much room we have in the van or making lists or ANYTHING like that, just the stuff that I need to sit down and finish/do. I have 12 things and 25 days. I need to finish one thing every two days and I'll JUST get this done... okay, I think I can do this. Well, most of it at least... I'm mainly worried about the doll outfits, as I've never made full outfits before, or anything like this for dolls, so we'll see how it goes. OTL If anyone knows of good patters I could downsize or just reference while I make my own patterns I'd love you. :D

So I got up early to see Gackt on tv this morning. Wow was the channel lagging! I got kicked off MULTIPLE times and for most of it the audio wouldn't work but I got a few screen caps. :3

five pictures of Gackt~ )

Squeeky will have WAY more, so I'll edit with a link when she posts it. :)
