Mello Jacket Done & Painting Mello's Gun (Day Thirty-Five)

I finished my jacket! Yay! It makes me look like Santa! Not yay! Oh well. I also did a really bad paint job on the prop gun my friend made for me. I may end up not taking it with me, but we'll see. It's a rather nice gun, but I think I could make a couple of modifications to make it nicer. Smooth out some edges. I'll put it on my to-do list.

I've noticed that I get really irritable when I'm in the middle of a sewing project. I don't want to text or talk on the phone or leave the room or nothing. I'm just like "No. Working. Go away." And it's not like I'm mad at the person, a lot of the time I do actually want to talk to them. I just get so focused. And never ask me how it's going or how the project looks. You'll either get "It's going," "It looks," or an incomprehensible, annoyed grunt.

YaoiCon tomorrow! Yay! It's my first time~!

Mello's Gun Promised (Day Three)

I had a birthday party today (well, yesterday, the 26th), which went overnight, so I couldn't post or do anything cosplay-related.

For my birthday, I was however, promised a prop handgun for my Mello cosplay. I have yet to see it, and the propmaker, a good friend of mine, couldn't come to the party, so I have no idea when it'll be done.

I couldn't even go the whole party without talking about cosplay, but in my defense, my friend bought it up first. They actually brought it up a few times. They really support what I do and find it amazing that I'm learning to sew, and can do it well.

In fact, I'm rather proud of myself. I love the clothes that make, they're unique, and since they're custom, they fit my body well. I always get a great response, before I mention that it's for a costume, anyway. Then all I get is "Oh..."
