Idgi? The Uranus' wig may need some help, and that Usagi cosplayer has to make peace with her age and accept that pancake make up can't hide the ravages of time, but her costume seems okay save for the mega-buns. Everyone else is on point.

What am I missing?

[Anonymous No.9507046]

...okay, on second look, maybe the Usagi isn't the only one that needs to make peace with their age in that pic. The Venus really is the only one that looks right.

getting that fucking bodice right stylistically and in proportion to your boobs.

Years ago I figured out that people making it need to make the dress right THEN make a bodice piece that can go over the bodice of the dress by tacking it down. That way if you make a mistake or find out the stuff you are using just isn't working you don't have to start again on a new dress. You can just cut a new bodice and try again. The overlay can be hidden by the trims and pearls your use.

Advanced makers can hide a corset in the first layer of the dress to keep it up without straps and then make the outer layers the proper shape to hide the corset.

I mean, from a sewing standpoint that's not how I'd do it because you need the scalloped edge up top to be sewn right from the get go to tack the pieces to.

Realistically, I'd just figure my measurements, how many circles Serenity's dress has in canon, and then figure out what diameter each circle must have to have that many circles across over bust. I could go to the trouble to make a mock up, but really i'd probably just pin the disks to the lining to test it before finishing the garment.

Any advice on getting a good Usagi wig? I'm going to a con in two weeks and my friend (her first con) wants all of us to dress up. Not full-cosplay, but 'characters in casual-wear' sort of thing. I've been looking around and I'm seeing wigs where the buns are detachable and I'm seeing ones that are all sorts of different color blonde. Should I get a 'pre-styled' wig? Or would I be better off getting a really long blonde wig and styling it myself? Any help is extremely appreciated!

>QueenieCosplay

Yeah, wow. Caking on make up does not help assuage the effects of time, damn. Do a Queen Serenity or Neo Queen Serenity or even Sailor Cosmos, but seven pounds of foundation and a MAC stores worth of eyeliner isn't helping that face pass for anything under 27. The frothing cup of crazy really doesn't help.

Most Sailor Moon cosplayers seem fine, but it's like every 15 years there's a new loony toon out to top the last loony toon in terms of sheer batshit craziness. And it's always Usagi they latch on to, too.

If Queenie or w/e made the wig and then used the chicks photo of herself using the wig Queenie made and is trying to sell, I don't see the big deal.

If she didn't make that wig, however, and is using her friends picture and the image of her friends wig to sell her own shit, that's fucked up.

Trying to hide her age by pounding on the make up.

Look, you can't de-age yourself with make up. I'm in my late twenties doing a costume of an actress in her early twenties.

Other than taking care of your skin, there's little things you can do to *soften* your age like using light brown eyeliner instead of black or going lighter on your brows as opposed to dark, but simply putting your foundation on with a spatula is just going to age your face upwards. Don't do it.

[Anonymous No.9510398]

>>9510394
She is probably on the middle to higher end of her thirties and needs to stop cosplaying teenagers if she is going to cake on that much make up. She legitimately looks 35-37 but with pounds of makeup looks 38-40.

[Anonymous No.9510399]

>>9510393
It's a shame because unlike Usagi Kou that Queenie chick does seem remarkably good at sewing fukus. Hell, if she'd tone down the mega-buns, her Usagi wig has to be among the best Ive seen.

Also: there is no such thing as one size fits all foundation. This is someone with dry skin using full coverage foundation (maybe powder, too) that is bad for dry skin.

When it comes to skincare, remember: prevention is easier than getting rid of the issues after they're there.

If you have some fine lines that retin a cant touch, don't go to one of those "beauty spas" or "medical spa" things in strip malls. If you're developing fine lines and Retin A and Vitamin C haven't helped, find a good dermatologist and have a consultation. You don't want to go to Larrys Discount Botox and have half a gallon of botulism injected into your face like this unfortunate creature.

Skincare will never work if you treat it as a every six months get an injection kind of thing. If you put yourself into an e-z bake oven and then inject yourself with Botox and make up like this chick, the only person you'll be fooling is yourself.

Take care of yoselves, gulls. You'll be grateful when you hit this chicks age.

A bright nude lip and black eyeliner aren't minimal make up. Minimal make up also means hues that aren't going to pop out at you like a harsh pure black and a nude pink three shades lighter than you are.

Minimal make up for someone of her age and skin tone would be a softer nude pink lip (not one that is bubblegum pink and far too light for her, I'd say maybe more of a coral pink?) brown eyeliner and light brown if not dark blonde eyebrows.

At 5'1, I'm digging around for my tallest, platformiest heels to wear under a Neo Queen Serenity dress.

I feel like Serenity/NQS would have the long, willow-y features of someone tall.

Usagi is drawn short, but with long, graceful features. So you could have the right height but look a bit stumpy (even at 105lbs, short is short,) or you could be a little tall for Usagi, but have the same lithe features as her. It's either a lose/lose or win/win depending on how you look at it!

I thought the same thing after seeing it on Clare Danes, but I don't think I could justify $500 a yard. You'd either have to sacrifice fullness or work really slowly, like buying the fabric one year then waiting anothe year to complete it.

I wonder...

I wonder if you could actually use that fabric but *under* the pleated chiffon? You could still get a full skirt and pleated fabric, but also get that nice diffused glow. Hmm...

[Anonymous No.9513713]

>>9513564
It's 172 a yard on ebay so it's /slightly/ cheaper, but still pricey for a dress as voluminous as Serenity's.
I used about 10 yards of fabric per layer on my dress (double circle skirts), but that can be cut down to 5 or less if it's just an underlayer.

[Anonymous No.9513805]

>>9513713
Alright gulls, I think we have a plan of attack. I think the chiffon would create a really nice diffusion of light, and using the LED fabric as an underdress would help cut down on the fabric at least.

So if we let ourselves daydream, what about the bodice? >>9500903 # showed you can do some amazing things with the embroidery.

Would you do conventional bead embroidery or work LEDs into the embroidery? Or do you think minimalist like the earlier LED dress?

What about the back bow?

[Anonymous No.9514046]

>>9513805
For LEDs, you could use conductive sewing thread in the embroidery? I'd personally just go with nice beading, since LEDs wouldn't present as well in sunlight. The staff could be clear acrylic tubling with a rope light inside, probably.

Anyone know where I can read more about this? All the google results for Naoko Takeuchi biography I'm getting are the run of the mill stuff- worked as a priestess, pharmaceutical school, published a few manga, Sailor Moon was successful, the end kind of deal.

I wish people would stop complaining that they can't sew or do anything else when if you take a quick look at their profiles they clearly make other things. Not to stir up drama, but the more anons that perpetuate this the longer it will go on. It seems unnecessary to keep whining at this point when it's been over a year since the drama started.

The construction on this one's a little unfortunate, it looks like it's falling off of her.

[Anonymous No.9518564]

>>9518537
The beadwork is great and I could see making the dress look like it's going to fall off of her on purpose given the context of the dress, but I think that was less done on purpose and more that she hadn't quiiiite figured out under structure, underlining, interfacing and boning yet.

Still one of the cleaner attempts at the beading, though.

Anon, you could easily have a straight edged bodice. The overlay could have the scallops. Interface them right and they will stand up without help from the dress.

Omg, I see it.

The chiffon overdress looks way better when it's pleated!

On, for me, unprecedented news in Sailor Moon Cosplayer Drama: it seems like the chick from up thread actually learned a pretty good lesson.

Sucks people didn't have their costumes on time, but I gotta say, it's nice having a bad commissioner admitting their mistake and adjusting. She's a talented seamstress with bad time management, so only selling pre made costumes seems like reasonable, mature response.

How rare.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Sailor Moon cosplayers group is closed so I was just going by what I saw on Instagram.

Don't know about the etsy thing, that is bizarre, but I have no idea what Etsy's policies are when people complain so I can't really answer that one. But if people complain, maybe it's etsy policy to issue an immediate refund regardless of what the purchaser asked for, idk.

That meme, though.

Damn, I wanted to believe. So close to having a cosplayer take the mature route, admit they were in over their heads, and learn from their mistakes.

I can respect that a lot more than being a passive aggressive jerk because you got caught.

She is so full of crap. She's upset she got caught missing so many people's deadlines and they wanted refunds because she did not follow through with her end of the deal. A lot of those people would have not filed refund claims had Queenie actually responded to her clients in the first place. Queenie is lying like a madwoman and is trying to place blame on others instead of fully admitting she was at fault. She took on 19 commissions and did not order supplies in a timely manner and did not get started on working on several of them until 3-4 months in. She is lazy. And blaming Arda for the bun mess up is hilarious. They triple check and sign their orders. She ordered the wrong buns plain and simple and is blaming Arda.

Hey everyone. I'm going to be making a neo queen serenity cosplay from sailor moon crystal over the next few months. Any fabric recommendations and tips on how I should do the detailing on the bodice?

[Anonymous No.9525609]

[Anonymous No.9525618]

>>9525583
For the fabric of the skirt, it's far more cost-effective to get the chiffon in bulk. You can get 25 yard bolts of white chiffon off amazon or fabricwholesaledirect (They doubled the price recently, unfortunately, but it's still cheaper than getting individual yards). If you're doing double circle skirts for the layers, each layer is about 9-10 yards of chiffon. I'd also recommend doing a fishing line hem to give the dress more body and volume.

There are a variety of ways to embellish the bodice, but if you're not committed to doing something like tambour beading (the best result imo) then flatback pearls will give a cleaner looking result than normal pearl beading. Use glue syringes so you don't have a mess on your fabric.

I've seen some people buy pre-embellished circles and just attach those to the bodice, if you want the super easy route.

[Anonymous No.9526041]

I like good ChibiUsa wigs.

people make droopy cones, don't fill out her pigtails, or forget the bangs like they do on Usagi too.

Who cares if they are fat! This costume looks great on them from the neck down! It is well made and lovely and they actually look skinnier in this. Now if only she actually had a good wig and better makeup.

And btw this costume will make people with big boobs look fatter. I just had a kid so I have some weight to loose and it is going to take time to loose it, but before I got pregnant I was skinny and had a large chest. I had been that way since early high school, When I was 5'8" and weighed 145 pounds. Something like this would make me look fat when I was bony.

[Anonymous No.9533132]

>>9533057
I gotta agree. She put all that effort into a gorgeous costume only to look terrible in it. I can't wrap my head around it. Obviously she's willing to put in the work into her costume, why not put the time to also work on looking good? There's a reason people don't want fat models, they tend to detract from the clothes and make them look bad.

Also, fat chicks: empire waists are not your friend. No one is thinking 'wow she's got big tits,' they are thinking, 'wow she looks like a blimp.'

Sorry you got shitty responses anon. I'm pretty busty too (37" bust and 23" waist), and I got the dress to stay up and look good by creating a full length corset-back bodice and just attatching the skirt in the correct place outside of it. The corset-style will compress your boobs quite a bit in addition to providing support to the weight of the skirt. Don't gather any of the skirt except the outside layer so there's less bulk under your boob.

[Anonymous No.9534229]

>>9534060

This is how I planned on doing mine... Though I was going to gather all the layers at the waist. But I did plan to taper it in.

[Anonymous No.9534510]

>>9534460
I did 2 double circle skirts of chiffon and one crepe satin underlayer. the doubling will give you the volume you need at the bottom without the bulk at the top, and then expanding the waist+ gathering for the top layer will give you the same look as her dress. The layers get thick really fast with multiple layers of gathering, otherwise.
