Asami Sato Default Outfit Worklog / Tutorial

Check out more photos of this cosplay here

First of all, I made a big mistake of sewing the buttons on the wrong side. I looked at the reference photo and forgot to consider that it was a mirror image. I didn't have enough time and resources to do the entire thing again so I just pushed forward. With that in mind, here's my Asami Sato cosplay worklog and hopefully none would make the same mistake as I did if ever anyone decided to follow through with this. *kicks self*

From KorrAsami with Love; Iinchou goes to CosMania 2016

Finally after months of planning, my friend and I finally got the chance to do our dream OTP cosplay Korra and Asami. Since we live far away from each other, we rarely have a chance to do cosplays together (long distance and all) so we've been really looking forward to it.

I wanted to post Asami's worklog first but things just got pretty hectic before and after my trip that I only had time to sort this out today so I'll be going with this for the meantime instead.

2016 (Late) Life Updates

It's been pretty mellow lately. With the end of the year approaching, I just want to take everything easy. I have two more cosplays I wanted to finish but with the pace I'm going at now, i think i'll only be able to finish one of them but hopefully I'll be able to write a worklog of it before this month ends.

Although it's been pretty laid back recently, I'm happy with a lot of changes that occurred for the past year that made me even more motivated to pursue this hobby. I'm excited to make more costumes but for now, some personal updates...

K.K. @ TorCH Iloilo 2016

It really pays to give the costume a test run before debuting it on an event/shoot. The first time I wore my KK costume, I didn't have any idea how it would look like and while it didn't really turn out bad, there are some factors I haven't taken note of that needs to be anticipated.

TorCh(Tournament of Champions) Iloilo is a local cosplay event/competition in the city that took place last August 6. 2016 and I finally got the the opportunity to wear my KK cosplay again. After a few repairs and maintenance check, I'm really happy because of some improvements since the last time I wore it.
