yes i must be mad, but i'm gonna have these dolls made for my shoot.

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

perhaps i'll sell them away after that, anyone wants? lols.

made the clothes first. too big for my barbie dolls.

Photobucket

then finally got my dolls stuffing from maomao to make the bodies! they look rather long. let's see if i'm hardworking enough to 'chop' the legs.

Photobucket

made the hair/hat yesterday. awwww.

Photobucket

now i'm thinking what i should draw for the face. perhaps they don't need one since they have masks. a bit lazy to do the masks. no inspirations. zzz.
me and rina finally got down to 'training' our muscles last sat.
bwhahah. results not so bad. this is just the prototype though. still need some more muscles and tattoo. shall not post all the awful pictures rina took while i was wearing the suit since she was drawing on me. yikes

Park Wan Kyu - Fate (from Hong Gil Dong)

kyaaaaa~~~ gong-jai yahhhhhh <3





내가 너무 약해서 내가 너무 나빠서
그저 이렇게 널 보고만 있어
나의 지친 마음도 나의 깊은 상처도
오랜 기억처럼 잊어었나봐..
나를 감당 할 수가 없어~
너에게만 매달리게 되
너 이렇게 가지마~~
내 심장이 너를 부르잖아~
미치도록 잔인한 인연에
더이상 아무것도 할 수가 없어..
슬픈나의 모습도 슬픈너의 눈빛도
그져 스쳐가는 바람이려나
거친 바람소리에 귀를 막아보지만
너를 보는 눈은 막을 수 없어..
같은 하늘아래 너와 난
다른곳을 보고 있나봐..
너 이렇게 가지마~~
내 심장이 너를 부르잖아~
미치도록 잔인한 인연에
더이상 아무것도 할 수가 없어..
끝이없는 마음에~~
버릴수가 없는 이 욕심이
나 이렇게 원하고 원해도
널 자격조차 없는 나인걸..
그럴 자격조차~~없는 나인걸..

Because I am so weak, because I am so bad
I am just watching you like this.
My worn-out mind and my deep scar
I must have forgotten them like an old memory.
I cannot handle myself,
I end up clinging on to you.
Don’t leave like this
(Don’t you see) My heart is calling out to you.
In this cruel fate, that drives me crazy,
There is nothing more I can do.
My sad appearance and the sad look in your eyes –
I wonder if they are just a passing wind.
Although I try to block my ears from the rough sound of the wind
I cannot block my eyes from seeing you.
You and I under the same sky
We must be looking towards different places.
Don’t leave like this
(Don’t you see) My heart is calling out to you.
In this cruel fate, that drives me crazy,
There is nothing more I can do.
In an endless feeling, this greed I can’t abandon
Although, like this, I want and want
It is I that has no right to have you.
It is I that has no right to have you.

by the way if you didn't notice, i changed my imeem player to the little ipod on the right hand side and it's playing all the music i like... with videos!! holy cow this is good!

yep it's all k-dramas. hohoho i will consider putting other stuff later but i spent half my day finding the videos i want to put in already.

and i put my self-made MV inside too (iljimae and daejanggeum). watch watch!

and the song fate is reminding me of my prince. jang geun suk just looks so so so sad in the show it breaks my heart.
and my armour i did for a week while watching hong gil dong. speaking of which... it's a really funny drama but the ending had me traumatised for 3 days. gong-jai! my prince! why!!! *gets lovestruck for a while*

ok, back to monster hunter armour. well, it's not very accurate i would say, but it's er... good enough i think for my level. sighs i just can't do anything 100% right. *bawls*

starting off with the skirt since that's what i worked on first. i used those hard type of underlining for the base, and wrapped cloth around them. it's my sewing-free job! all uhu glue! that's why i can watch hong gil dong and do this at the same time.

putting the individual pieces using one of the base strips, this is what i get.

Photobucket

then i did the skirt guard

Photobucket

and stuck them together. the skirt is buckled together using velcro.

Photobucket

this is the front piece of the skirt. used a ribbon so i can tie them to my waist. it's supposed to be underneath the skirt pieces.
now, why does the color look pink here? it's supposed to be orange. ARGHHH.

Photobucket

then i did my hand and leg warmers. ok, i needed to sew up the sides for these. but i didn't sew any of the edges! i used white type to keep the edges from unthreading. i hate sewing curly things actually.

Photobucket

warmers with the brown ribbon glued on.

Photobucket

when i post this it should be completed already. this is the chest plate and shoulder guard. and here i should explain that i used black cloth tape for all the edge lining and clear colored folders for all the colored patterns. this shoulder plate is NOT round enough. clear fail. perhaps i will redo if i'm not feeling too lazy.

Photobucket

here's the corset i did, using the same method as the skirt. it's joined up by machine stitching. too hard to hold corset together with uhu glue.

Photobucket

i did the butterfly pieces for the back and for the headgear.

Photobucket

and the butterfly is stitched behind the corset after positioning it with pins.

Photobucket

then there's the headpiece. actually this is the very first armour piece i did for the whole costume (remember in my previous post i said my helm sucked). it's done using craft foam and wrapping cloth around.

Photobucket

put on the colored pieces separately and lined the insides with white tape so the thread won't uncurl from the edge of the cloth.

Photobucket

i then sewed the 2 pieces together, and did the front cover as well.

Photobucket

the little butterfly goes to the back of the helm. here's the final headpiece with that ahoge sticking out in front (held up using wires inside)

Photobucket

the front shape is still a bit weird. but i AM TOO LAZY now. and i still need to figure out how to make this helm stick to my head. i mean i can wear it now but it's not like tight fitting or anything. it kinda bobs up if i don't find a method to tack it down.

Photobucket

now i only have the chainsaws left. headache...

and boy it's hot when i put all these stuff together...

hmmm? why did i ever get talked into doing this armour? phwehhh...
i undid the stitches and redid it for about 3 times before i finally got it right. though it still looks not very right. GAHHHH. what am i doing?!?!?

Photobucket
then there's my nails i prepared for kyoko.
argh speaking of the shoot on friday, it was really vexing. spent 3 hours to prepare only to arrive at the scene of rain. and got my gown all dirty and brownish at the edges. good thing there's still the home-made in house studio shots. hope it turns out well...

and i lost one of these nails!! T.T

Photobucket

Photobucket
my 2 weeks of holiday is ending in just another 8hours... sighs. time just keep flying when you don't want them to. and i supposedly just got off msn, but i'm blogging now. GOSH. i have to totally keep myself off the screen!! (after these updates of course)

first up, my castor plates. a bit too late now but oh well.

Photobucket

actually resprayed it again.

Photobucket

and i resprayed it AGAIN. all of them don't look that different anyway. wanted the new but not too new feeling but oh well.
