Really? UtaPri Calculators!?
I'm not sure if this will be enough motivation to do maths.

Friday night drinks + Valvrave Episode 20
I wanted to relieve some stress built up from the whole week (I had to OT at work every single night for the past week because I had to finish off my boss' project that was due today, but deadline got extended till Tuesday).
Since there weren't any meeting tonight I decided to have a drink (or two) with my bishies (Yes that's my husbando Ukyo at the back), and enjoy some anime.
I went to the local liquor store after work and picked up this Fuji Apple + Ume (Japanese plum) cider. It's not bad, but since it's got plum the cider is slightly sour. I personally prefer cider made from Pink Lady apples because they have a sweeter fragrance. I also saw a Fuji Apple + Ginger cider, which I'm tempted to try next time.
So enjoy the following SS's from VVV.

| Classy, they made reference to Don Quixote. |
 |
| Oh whyyyyyy. |
 |
| How on earth was L-Elf able to write on the ceiling? Oh right, they can float "at will". I still don't understand Valvrave physics. |

| Stop it with the depressive thoughts L-Elf ;_- |

[Cosplay] Beware of Traps
Behind a pretty face there may be a...
Trap!!
Just goes to show how amazing make up is, how PS is an amazing creation and how dedicated some people are to the "lifestyle/hobby" of cosplaying.

Seiyuu appreciation post: Brothers Conflict (Selected) Cast
Just realised that it's been a while since I last spammed about seiyuus. There was a BroConf event yesterday and night (there were two sessions). This is a snapshot of the boys that participated. Note that OnoD and HiroC didn't attend cos they had to host a separate event: Dear Boys Matsuri~, which apparently was just next door to the BroConf event. And Namikawa had a signing event, so he didn't go either. It's really cute seeing the boys semi-cosplaying as their characters.

[Cosplay] Yaya
As you have seen in my latest art log, my heart's been captured by Yaya from Unbreakable Machine Dolls. I found this Hong Kong cosplayer, Sakurahime, that cos'ed Yaya at a recent event.
~She's so pretty!

Pumpkin's Palette: Yaya (Machine-Doll wa Kizutsukanai)
I finally finished drawing Yaya! :D ... after 2.5 weeks.
I amaze myself sometimes.
You start noticing the physics of girls' bodies after watching sufficient harem anime, though I reckon I still need to watch more so I can be more creative with poses.

Again I changed my colouring/shading style. Do you like it now?
*Updated ver: added flare to the bg and changed some shadowing; this is the version we use for our banners.

Brisbane Supernova 2013: Code Geass CC R2 Cosplay
It has been well over a month since I did my last post, though in my defense uni obligations plus workin' on my cosplay costume consumed most of my time. So there.
Anyhow here's my journey through the process of creating my first serious cosplay ever. Enjoy.
First of all, I chopped up some old bed sheets and made a model with my pattern. Had to fix the sizing several times.
Next, traced the pattern on to the cloth with some tailors chalk. (all together, the cloth cost about $30)
With the zipper sewn on. Found a lovely tutorial. As you can see, I used a LOT of pins. Needless to say I was pricked silly the entire time. ( You know in anime? How the girl tries to sew things for the guy and ends up with a handful of bandages and cuts? It was like that. Except maybe less blood)
Prickly column of death.
Followed by progress pic, the columns of cloth pretty much sewn together by now :D.
Ironing interfacing onto the collar, as you can see on the pic on the right, I made it thicker on the two ends for added standing-uppiness.
Makeup costests!
Note the contouring and stuff.
I ended up going with the third one.
Ok. All done. Ready for it?
The final unveil!!

On to the details! Above are a set of fail chest panels, besides being horribly uneven I tried to sew the gold bias tape on after the panels were attached to the dress (?) Bad idea. Had to unpick the entire collar and the panels and the upper stitches. I think I teared up a little.
 |
| New back and front panels with bias tape sewn on BEFORE stitching to dress thing. |
 |
| Sewing the armholes, the white strips attached to the cloth are fusible interfacing bits to make the material stiffer and more fancy looking. |
 |
| Ok, ok I know I cheated. Meh. What are do gonna do bout it ? |
 |
| Chopping out the lining cloth. |
 |
| So satiny ^-^ |
 |
| FINALLY DONE. NO KIDDING THIS WAS HARD. |
 |
| Test try without collar and lower gold bias tape. I did iron the leg flaps after this. |
 |
| Coloring the arm cuffs gold for uniformity. |
Ironing interfacing onto the collar, as you can see on the pic on the right, I made it thicker on the two ends for added standing-uppiness. |
| Test trial with belts and collar and cuffs. |
 |
| Buttons came in the mail! |
Layering on the fabric paint for the Geass design down the front.
It's actually a bit crooked... But no-one needs to know that heheh
 |
| CC themed nails. |
Makeup time!!
 |
| With gold circle lenses on from lensvillage.com I got I-fairy tofi-gold lenses (maybe cause they were on sale. Hey hey! We're working with a student budget here) |
Makeup costests!
Note the contouring and stuff.
I ended up going with the third one.
Ok. All done. Ready for it?
The final unveil!!
