Marceline progress

I am going to try to make blog posts for all my future cosplays in progress. I will try to take more photos and attempt to continue to make videos (though I haven't been good at keeping up with that). For now, I'll post the progress of a cosplay in which I had my very first prop for.

The upside about this is I did take progress pictures of my prop, the downside is I seemed to forget to take any pictures of the finished product, full makeup and whatnot.

It's hard to see, but I had t hand dye the gloves yellow, I'm also not wearing my body paint.



The top is a big too bulky and rounded for my liking, and I almost didn't carry it around with me, but I plan to carve it down and sharpen the edges and repaint it to make it look better. I'm also going to add guitar strings.
I also did a quick makeup text with the lipstick (used a very fat eyeliner pencil actually) 
The pants I had to midify myself and I got to use some of the most beautiful buttons! I took a pair of my hand me down jeans and modified them to actually fit my properly.
What's really funny is that I pinned down the sides, and tried them on first, but I wasn't thinking, so when I went to take them off, all the pins turned inwards and stabbed down my legs.  had funny marks down my legs for a solid week!
These are the sacrifices I make for cosplay <3

Cafe Debut

This is a long over due post, but Momo Maid Cafe debuted on the 8th of December and it was a blast! We learned the hard way that December was just a bad time. However, our customers gave us positive feedback and the next time will be even better than ever!

Here are some photos from the day!
Our first customer had a lot of fun because we weren't too busy so we ended up all playing games with him and he got to meet all the maids and butlers!
There were more pictures taken, but I have those posted on the website, so go check it out!
