My name is Amara. 8/10 people pronounce it wrong.
I like cosplay, robots, figure skating, animu and mangos, video games, Miyazaki, pretty junk, pre-2008 lolita fashion, talking about things that I have eaten recently, androgynous women, oceanography, and probably some other crap I can't think of right now.

I run an effing nerdy Rose of Versailles blog.

Finally ready to begin painting, wish me luck~ #cosplay #wip #worbla #sao #Lisbeth #breastplate
I think I’ve just figured out my armour painting method, I love how this looks now! (as far as craft foam goes) #cosplay #wip #armour #sao #Lisbeth
First time I’ve ever used worbla~ I think I’m a convert <3
Still needs details/trim added, more forming on the back, gesso, sanding, and paint. #cosplay #WIP #Lisbeth #SAO #progress #worbla

IT BEGINS (Prototype 1) #cosplay #wip #plugsuit #mari (Taken with Instagram)
tumblr edit: (i am 99% positive I am going to scrap this thing, and it looks all lumpy because it is pinned on, and there is black craft foam underneath because i ran out of white because i am just testing the water ok)
Painting on legs is done!! the paint I used is 1 part white, 2 parts gold… but it still just looks white for some reason…
Also did vacuum forming for the first time tonight for the “kitty” bulbs on my speakerhands, and helmet bodywork is all done (but not painted)!
And speakerhands are not available for photos right now because I am having to redo the gloss on them >:/ TIP: NEVER USE KRYOLON GLOSS COAT, OPT FOR RUSTOLEUM CRYSTAL CLEAR AUTOMOTIVE SEALER (GLOSS) + TURTLE WAX SUPER HARD SHELL
Anyway yeah, worst quality pictures ever… but whatever, I’m anticipating the ones of the full costume that will be happening in less than two weeks :3c
progress report before I take a quick power nap, then get back to work
My hand hurts from dremeling…
So tired… have to keep going… ￣ᕙ(⇀‸↼‶)ᕗ
Saboten is in a week and a half, I can sleep when I’m dead
Everything is messy right now!
And nothing in this picture is actually 100% complete except for the shoes… but I have not posted enough progress lately due to busybusybusy… so… there we go, now I don’t have to feel lazy about it anymore :P
This set up will be fun to explain to my family tomorrow.
