lil update for the masses💥💥💥

Mesh part underneath is mostly done! It blends in with the mannequin so it might be hard to see- but! Besides a few adjustments in the chest window and collar, its ready for the LED lines running across the Grey suit once they arrive ^^ might update with some 3d models later if I feel like it but I have no energy for more blender rn

Stickers for conventions are also sketched out so expect some of those in the near future!

I think I fixed the Emmrich pants ass problem, at least, to the best of my current ability, without sacrificing all of the breathing room in the front.

I'm going to start putting this image after documentation of a part of this cosplay that was a massive pain:

TKB Fit + More Cosplay Update

Ya'll seen the body progress pics but time for the stuff that goes ON and WITH the body update!

Did a mock up of putting together the Millennium Rod to see how it would eventually look without glueing it together just yet. It's an amazing print and can't wait to start priming! (If you're interested in your own Millennium Items @rosalind-hawkins can print EVERY single one for an amazingly decent price!) Only problem I have as of right now is how loose the sheathe is with connecting to the rest of the rod but I'm going to attempt to use a similar fix that us model builders use to tighten old/loose joints on our Model Kits. It's essentially taking a clear nail polish and putting a light layer around the peg that connects into the socket. But honestly some layers of primer/paint might produce a similar result.

While at the hobby store yesterday I picked up some Krylon since I mentioned in a previous post that Rust-o-leum is unfortunately unsandable after application and was recommended Krylon paint and primer. Even if this ends up not being entirely sandable I'll still have them for the base colors of my stuff.

Real reason I went to the hobby store though?

Having time to think about it, I will be using the gold acrylic markers to paint the dark wood beads I intend to use for the TKB robe collar chain instead of using a rattle can. One reason being there is room for so much error and mess ups/smudges if I use a can paint as opposed to individually painting them. And so far its hard to choose which marker I want to use.

They appear to be the same tint but it feels like one is more reflective and shiny than the other. The UMark Metallic Gold appears more vibrant where as the DecoColor is a little duller. But the DecoColor appears to be more reflective with light than the UMark brand. But because I have way more DecoColor, I will likely use it instead. The robe chain is one of the projects I'm putting off until Gremlin arrives because I'll be able to work on it while also attending to puppy supervision.

I will also likely hand sew the Shenti together rather than machine sew as it would help me personally produce a more accurate stitch. Machines sometimes move too fast. The Sash I will likely machine sew the velcro in but for the false folds I'll likely do those by hand as well. For me things are just less anxiety inducing when I have full control of the situation. While yes you CAN Control the machine.. I had a heavy foot and will make it go too fast lol.

I really need to paint some thing with the Krylon Metallic Gold and see if it'll match up with the DecoColor Gold. That would make doing touch ups SO much easier. Pray for me guys.
