Yinyincs is an ebay store known to steal photos from other companies. Th...

Which would impress you the most? (image heavy)

Okay, so I admit it. One of my favorite things about making costumes is making the insane ones, the ones that people look at in the manga and go 'no way anyone can make that.' I also love doing costumes that no one else is doing, at least not in large quantities. And I love ruffles, bows, ribbon, al...

My friends and I are going to Matsuricon; we have a table in Artist's Alley :D We're going to do a few Bleach characters, but I don't think we have Toushiro, sry. We're more on the Arrancar side of things

Ooh if you're that tall you should do Sir Integra from Hellsing! I've always wanted to see a tall woman doing her :D She has a couple of costumes. This is the most well known: http://www.advfilms.co.uk/titles/hellsing/images/operatives/integra01.gif But personally I think this one is way cooler: htt...

Need a D. Gray Man pic!

I'm looking for quality pictures of Miranda Lotto's exorcist uniform in the manga "D. Gray Man." Does anyone have any or know where I can get some? I can't seem to find any!

Thanks,
Lavender

I've actually made four dresses from the books and I'm here to tell you that unless you are a) really willing to experiment, b) willing to mess up, and c) have a lot of time, those are really tough dresses to make and to make them look right. If you've got all that, though, I say carry on! What fabr...
