Hello people! After so many requests and questions about “how did you make Sakura’s feather cage for your cosplay?”, I thought about doing a quick tutorial and here it is:

1- With thin wire (it’s very easy to shape) and a sport ball, start to form the curves with the help of a pliers. You can use adhesive tape to unify the wires.

2- When the ball is almost entirely covered with the wires, leave an open space so you can take the ball off with care. If any of the wires gets out of place, you can glue it back with the tape. Make sure the ball’s shape is just like you want it to be and, most important, make sure it’s firm and strong.

3- With wrapping paper previously cut in strips (you can also use journal paper if you want) and white glue, start to fill in every wire until it gets the shape you want.

4- You can cover it with pulp plaster (aquaplast), because it’s cheaper. Otherwise, for those who have more experience in props, you can use worbla for a much stronger finish. If I would do this again, I would absolutely use worbla as my first option ;)

5- Last but not the least, use spray paint in gold to paint everything. The flowers were made in modeling shape paste, but you can customize and, for example, use eva materials instead. Or, you can also buy artificial flowers that look like these and glue them on for a more realistic finish.

I hope this was helpful for you and, if you have any questions, don’t mind asking! ;) Follow my work: https://www.facebook.com/SakuraHimeCosplay/

‘Card Captor Sakura’ Character Cards (Manga Bonus)

Today I felt like sharing something super special with the world :3

So here you are, straight from my childhood, the bonus character cards that came with the ‘Card Captor Sakura’ manga books as they were published here in Spain. My guess is that it is a feature copied from the original Japanese edition, but I guess that the very knowledgeable @thecardcaptormuseum will know better than me…

I remember checking carefully the new books as they appeared in my usual shop to make sure that I was getting one with a card - aww, nostalgia. I bet many of these cards were stolen (that shop still has many of these books left, but none have their cards anymore). And I wonder if we will get a Spanish edition of the new CCS manga with any similar bonus, it would be so cool!

They are made of simple cardboard, very thin with no extra protection, so they are flimsy delicate. But as you can see, if you treat them with care, they can last forever in mint condition ^w^

The original run of CCS was 12 books, 6 for every arc. Since every book brought one card, that makes 6 Clow Cards and 6 Sakura Cards:

Every card featured the same character as the soft cover under the Sakura sleeve. They were, in publishing order: Sakura, Tomoyo, Shaoran, Toya, Kaho, Kero-chan, Yukito, Nakuru, Spinel-Sun, Eriol, Clow and Sakura again.

As I said, the quality of these cards is not up to that of the official Clow deck (not that I am complaining - they are one of the best bonus gift everrrrr). They look a little different, too:

The bonus cards have less textures and more basic colours; they also lack the rounded corners and feature texts: ‘Cardcaptor Sakura’ and ‘Clamp Kodansha’. Even so, they are so nice.

Perks of being around during the first run of a series >:3
