cosplay make-up

Hi everyone,

I always wanted to make a post about cosplay and make up.
I find make-up very important in cosplay because it makes such a big difference. But because the characters are so special they need some extreme makeup. I spend a lot of money on eye shadow and special lipsticks the last few years and I was fed up with it. So last time I was on eBay I bought some big makeup pallets for a very cheap price at Keyhere store.
I bought "Pro 88 Warm Color Eye Shadow Makeup Palette Eyeshades A" and " Pro 120 Full Color Eyeshades Palette Eye Shadow Makeup"
I only payed 21 dollars for it and that's around 15 euros for two makeup pallets :)
Its so handy because my cosplays all have different colors and need different eye shadows and now I have all the colors I need ^^ I'm thinking of making makeup tutorials of the characters I have cosplayed and so I can show you how I did my makeup. So 'm still thinking about it ^^ maby one day :)

Hugs and kisses!!!

BIFFF competition

Last Sunday we participated in the cosplay competition for the Belgium representative for ECG.
My costume was almost finished but them my sewing machine broke down so I was stuck! Then I also needed to work on Saturday until eleven so I didn't have time to go to a store to fix it :S When I came back from work videll was there so we could go to here home so we could practice the act together.
Sanne was also there to practice but she wasn't looking to well, she was very pale. The next morning she called us and told us she could not come to the competition. It was so sad :( but it was the best thing to do, health is more important than anything!
We didn't know if we could still participate with only two people but at the last minute it was allowed. But the next problem was that we didn't have an act anymore :S So we had 15 minutes to figure something out :S It was soooooo stress full XD
At the last moment the act was finished but my skirt ripped while practicing so I had to repair it. But I had to hurry because we where next in line for the competition. So we went in stage and started our act. But 20 seconds in to the competition the worst thing happened and my skirt ripped open and fell. Man that was so scary I didn't know what to do and I picked it up and continued with the act :P LOL I was so embarrassed. But the judges where very very kind and commissioned.
We won the special BIFFF price and where soooo happy ^^ I really thought we would not win after the stage malfunction :p The three representative for ECG where sooo beautiful! And I hope they will have a blast in Paris!! Can't wait to see there act *_*
I would like to thank videll and sanne so much! it was so fun to make the costumes and practice the act and bifff was amazing ^^ We will participate again next year ! count on it :)

hugs and kissed XXX

One crazy week!!

oké last week was a little crazy!

We had a very fun cocktail party with a few friends of mine. It was so fun and we made four different cocktails ^^
I my self and Sanne don't drink any alcohol so we made two NA cocktails and they where soooooo yummy!!! After the cocktails we went to party all night long and I didn't get to bed untill 7 in the moring XD auch :P I was sooooo tired!

After a good day off sleep I started on my big cosplay project! I made the first designs for my costume. I made the base for the leg and arm armors. It tool a lot longer that I thought it would :S
After those armors I was stuck again because I needed a lot of glue and paint to finish them. Last wensday I went to Hasselt and got everything I needed. I also went to the "stoffenspectakel" its a big big facbric market that moves around the country I was was so lucky that it came to Hasselt last week!!

Now, the big challenge is just starting!
From last sunday untill this friday is the only time that I have to finish the whole costume!!
Oh noooooowwwzzz XD thats so little time for me >.<
So here is the report from the last twe days:

Sunday:

First I finished the leg and arm armors, I painted them and added some shadows to give them some depth. I added the leather belts to hold them in place.
Last saturday I bought some hot hot hot shoes!!! And I just caint ruin thet for cosplay so I'm going to try and safe them by working over them without touching the shoes.
So sunday I made the green cover to put over the shoe.
Late in the evening I started on my little breast piece. I took an old bh and changed the straps with leather ones.
after all this I was so tired and I needed my bed rest!

Monday:

Today I started on the upper arm pieces, I made one and finished it, I made the base for the second one but my glue is finished so need to wait for some new glue.
I also started on the armor part of the top and I finished it ^^ wiiiiii It took al long time but its done!!
I made the pathern for the shoulder pieces and the skirt.
I also figured out how I'm going to make the shoes work. I just need some glue to get started.
So I still have lots of work to do !! but I really need to finish -_-

First day of blogging

So, after a long time of thinking about it I just did it. I made my first blog!
I'm going to write in english so more people can read it :P If anyone is ever going to read it at all XD My english isn't that great but I think its understandeble.

So to start things of,
I've been cosplaying since 2005 but my first convention was in 2006 and since than I've been cosplaying like crazy. I have around 20 cosplays and more to come. I'm also studying film school and I'm in my last year. My cosplays have been put on hold for the last 6 months because school was just crazy. But right now I started again with a new costume and a new group.
Videll, a good friend of mine showed me the artworks of Shunya Yamashita and I fell in love with them!
When I was looking trough the books I found this design in Wild Flower. I loved the way the costume fits on the body. And also the amazing bow! The detailes are amazing but not that easy :P
So I started the first stap of cosplay and I tried to figure out how the hell I would start on this costume! After a few days I could see the light! right now I need to get my pay check and get some supplies!

I'll see you guys soon!!
