Shint Hati progress part 4! I'm almost there, but i still need to style the wig, its a disaster πŸ™

This week I stepped outside my comfort zone and did a voiceover... a huge step as I used to be teased for how I sound. So if you don't like it, do me a favour and scroll past πŸ€πŸ‘‹

Still to do: style the wig, and find the leg pieces I KNOW i made πŸ€¦πŸΌβ€β™€οΈ

Would you like to spend the day with me? πŸ”₯
Custom jacket and modified shorts is the fit of the day! Off to cheer England on in the World Cup, so cosplay will have to wait πŸ™ˆ

Also its still too hot to be wearing all that armour πŸ₯΅

This week is way to hot to be running around in a cape! So here's some of the painting progress I've made on Shin's armo...

This week is way to hot to be running around in a cape! So here's some of the painting progress I've made on Shin's armour pieces, and a simple few clips of the process:

I dry brush some black into the grooves before I airbursh, which might be a bit weird, does anyone else do this?

Then I mix the colour (remember to thin your paints πŸ™„) I like to use metallic black and some brown on armour to make it look aged but still metal.
Its been so long since I've used it I'm rustier than the armour!

Hope my UK pals are coping with the heat!

Part 3: Cloaks and Armour! (And a bit of silliness) If you'd like a more in depth look at how I paint armour, use an airbrush... or if there's something you want me to cover next time, please drop a comment and I'll do my best to cover it!

Part 2 of resurrecting the cosplay I found abandoned in storage πŸ‘€

This week: sewing on all the fastenings, important QC check, and attempting to work with layers of fabric during a UK heatwave.

Maybe not the smartest move but the sew must go on!

At least it's finally starting to look like a wearable cosplay

A closer look at the historical stays I recently sharedπŸ€“

Can you believe I deconstructed, altered panel by panel, and rebuilt these to fit me during lockdown?! It was a challenge, but I know I enjoyed it πŸ₯°

Years later, it's still a project I'm incredibly proud of.

Would you have started again from scratch, or taken on the alterations? ✨

Throwback to these historical stays I made while studying at uni - a labour of love!πŸ’›

They were originally drafted and fitted to another student in my class, using hand-dyed silk and detailed hand embroidery. During the pandemic, with a lot more time on my hands, I decided to completely deconstruct them, alter every panel to fit me instead, and then reassemble the entire garment. πŸ₯΅

The silk has faded quite a bit over the years, but I'm still proud of the craftsmanship and hours of handwork that went into this piece.

I'm considering re-dyeing them and giving them a new lease of life... should I do it?
