Kemp Pain In The Butt

The details!!! 🤩

You ever start a cosplay in 2021, get it wearable in 2024, and then finish it in 2025? Uhhh yeah who does that 😬

Anywho, I got Summoner Yuna photos back!!! I won Best Journeyman!

Outdoors photos from Carnivorous Sheep Photography and stage photo from Saurlokphotography

Skirt*

Reminder we can always upgrade or fix a costume! I had to rush Summoner Yunas shirt last year to get her wearable in time. I completely deconstructed her and am now properly finishing her. #finalfantasy #cosplaymakers #cosplaywip #summoneryuna #cosplay

Found some old faux flowers in my stash and made some hair pieces

Scarf was dyed by me, hot pink sash needs final touches, skirt is done, red sash is cut out, coral scarf is done

Apparently most of my WIP photos were not saved to my phone.

Everything minus the wig was from my stash! I dyed some white table cloths pale pink and used a red table cloth for red accents. All fabric was previously thrifted

I am still workshopping the process, but fabric spray paint is how I deshined this wig!

So the hardest part of this build was fighting the shine on these epic cosplay wigs 😩

New build log! #apothocarydiaries #maomao #jinka

20 mins is probably the longest i can personally watch before ADHD kicks in 😅

the good thing about being a cosplayer is that everyone will offload spare craft supplies and fabric onto you

the bad thing about being a cosplayer is that everyone will offload spare craft supplies and fabric onto you

Im not sure if she has it but Yaya Hans cosplay collection is now sold by mood fabrics

It takes some creative problem solving, but even details builds can be done on a budget. As you can see about half of the material was from my stash and half was purchased for this build.

Saving and using scraps, thrifting material, repurposing wigs, it all helps reduce cost

Pretty much 😅 i didnt cosplay at all that first year between new house and new puppy cost. Good luck!

A canon event i fear. It does eventually slow down but for me that first year was a lot of house related purchases 😂

This is so relatable. I closed in December 2022 and i was making so many Home Depot trips that first month 😂

Congratulations!

I figured probably should add some of the finished looks to this thread! Both photos taken/edited by carnivorous_sheep_photography on insta
