This is terrific. I have not had the best of luck with padding a dress form to match a certain client's measurements and she doesn't live close. This is a great help. My only suggestion would be to add various lines with a marker before removing it from your body: waist, princess seams from the shoulder, side seams, neck, etc.
yeah yours worked out better than mine. Found a tutorial on a website but didn't want to ask anyone 's help. Meh. I stuffed mine wit old clothes but it's kinda heavy. You can also use a clothing hanger to hang it, if it's not too heavy. Make a hole in the cardboard neck piece, put the hanger's head through, and i guess put it in before you tape the length back together after cutting it.
Yeah very glad I found some pillow with poly fill so it could be light and cheap bc otherwise idk what I would have done, good solution with the clothes though! Good idea on the clothes hanger too! Forgot not everyone has a mannequin stand lying around lol
List of items you need: 2 to 3 rolls of duct tape Plastic wrap Sharpie marker Scissors Cardboard Poly cotton fill (she saved money buying secondhand cushions) Someone to help you duct tape your body lol Thank you Sabrina I love your tips I am going to go out and buy my stuff today. Yay.
Thanks! I can't take credit, many people have done it, I just wanted to share the specifics on things that worked for me. Hope it helps if you're looking to make your own!
Hers drapes more securely because of the silver fabric the chains are draped on, but I like yours better because as you displayed, you can fashion it over many different outfits for different effects. I also think it looks better with more body coverage like your examples had. You got inspired and made it your own! Great job!
Thanks! Yeah it's definitely inspired by and not an exact replica but it like a cross between jewelry and a dress it's almost like a good accent to an outfit
Thank you!! Agreed, definitely thought it popped on the black! And I'd say it's roughly 5 lbs. Noticeable when you're just holding it but not too noticeable when wearing it
En effet, j’ai passé votre vidéo car comme je l’ai dit précédemment vous parlez beaucoup et l’anglais n’est pas ma langue. Je sais très bien que faire une vidéo est un travail conséquent et j’ai vu aussi que vous y avez beaucoup de plaisir. Allez, bonne continuation.
I think the amount of commentary was fine? It takes a lot of effort to film videos like these. You can always skip through the video if it’s too much instead of commenting about it in a non constructive criticism way :)
i literally had this idea for my ghost type pokemon ginjika cosplay! I'm so glad that you decided to power through this project and post it anyways. This video helped me immensely as to what to do for my corset/harness! even the neck corset! this was so wild! thank you so much! i hope one day you decide to make a video on revisiting this project again and make it the way you envisioned it <3
great! I've been looking for a simple and inexpensive horn-making method for a while; this seems perfect for my needs! So glad I found your channel. One new subscriber. Also had a good time hearing about the cat / chipmunk saga. Two stories in one video!
I definitely struggle with "It's not perfectly how it was in my head, so I can't continue." So your two year gap I fully understand. The number of half-started projects, or projects only on paper, or only in my head: embarrassing. Sometimes powering through and just DOING it can be its own reward: even if it's not perfect, it's done. And that's better than not being done at all. If this is a learning experience, and one has the motivation for a second attempt at the same concept- having learned what does and does not work- then the second take can be even better. Thank you for illustrating how even a "fail," (which I would say this still looks pretty cool and you should be proud, even if it's not perfectly what you had in mind) can be a win. Whether it turns out pretty okay, or even if only as a learning experience, doing is the key. Doing something is better than not doing something. I know this is a lesson I am constantly trying to teach myself.
Thank you so much for watching! Yes! I feel like all artists struggle with the perfection issue. And I agree, sometimes I really think good enough us better than never finishing anything. But I too have a mountain of half finished projects. One day! Lol
I love the skirt design, I’m doing a Rosetta cosplay from tinker bell and I found this looking for a bit of help! I’m so excited to give it a try! The batting(?) was genius
