Scissor Blade-made from chann-bee's tutorial (http://chann-bee.tumblr.com/post/82388152318/super-budget-ryuuko-matoi-scissor-blade-tutorial), with template credit to (http://katzmatt.net/public/scissor/matoiscissorSINGLE.pdf). Took approx. 3 days to make. In lieu of Gesso and multiple layers of paper-mache, I used house paint (probably not the best idea, but hey, it works) to make a smooth surface and used Rustoleum Paint+Primer 2x in a red colour (can't remember orz;;)
Fabric was a suiting cloth from Jo-Anns. Pattern for sailor collar, glove, and Senketsu eye was drafted, shirt was a basic blouse, and skirt was pleated from same fabric (probably a bad idea because it took too long to iron it down.)
- Personal Thoughts:
- This is the actual first cosplay I made entirely from scratch--will debut at Otakon 2014. For now, here are some selfies as well as construction/wip pictures.
