the making of AoE mephistopheles

vincent said that the show was as good as FMA so i had to watch it... and it was awesome! so i went to like another xerxes/undertaker-like character called mephisto pheles this time. bwahhhh.

he has this really cute bat-like umbrella and it seems he likes pink a lot.
and he appeared to be the tallest character =.=

Photobucket

just look at how well he goes together with xerxes. hur hur.

Photobucket

Photobucket

so i've more or less completed his stuff. was actually supposed to do it with laogong at AFA, but i was busy chionging for my pitch and didn't have time to complete it. T_T next event please!

started with the modification of my audrey burne top and joining the tail to it.

Photobucket

painted the buttons on it

Photobucket

and attached thick thread for the swirly collar and cuffs

Photobucket

then mended the bottom so it has the v-shape

Photobucket

now it looks like this

Photobucket

next i made the vest with lining

Photobucket

i quite like how it turned out... maybe i'll wear it out. heh.

Photobucket

and the back

Photobucket

easy.

the hat was made using foam. had a previous template from shirogane, so just needed to cut and made sure it fit my head. it's ll kangaroo glued-on, and my handicraft was so bad some parts looked pretty yellowish. oh well.

Photobucket

swirly thing was done with 2 strips stuffed with cotton and twisted together, then glued on.

Photobucket

normal gloves template, just draw the lines around my hand, cut and sew. routine. (but it still looks sucky)

Photobucket

cape is done with 2 colors and in 2 layers cos my white cloth was too little, so i had to cheat... which part did i cheat on, you ask? WELLL... guess!

Photobucket

Photobucket

then added in the ribbon lining. i like this ribbon!

Photobucket

bought pink pants but couldn't bear to paint over it so i bought stockings and drew over it instead. too lazy to draw the whole part so here's what i have only that's enough (since he has shorts and boots to cover the rest anyway)

Photobucket

made the cane using some curtain hanger that is extendable and painted it gold. suppose to build the tip and the ice cream part with clay but the 2 packs of clay i bought was all solidified! there goes my $4 in the bin. ended up using the epoxy i had. well it was much stronger anyway...

Photobucket

and the base of the ice cream is some stuffed cloth. HAHA

Photobucket

that needed LOTS of painting and repainting

Photobucket

to eventually look like this. the green's still a bit dirty though

Photobucket

next is the bat-umbrella. not sure how to convert from bat to umbrella and vice versa, so i just settled for only bat. made the sweets pattern out of felt.

Photobucket

then bought pink cloth to make the bat base. wings had metal wirings to support.

Photobucket

then i stuffed the bat through the rod

Photobucket

wings will be added on separately for easier traveling purposes. so it kinda look like this when i set it up

Photobucket

cute eh? it's lying on top of my CD rack in the living room now. i had to make it face inwards so it wouldn't scare anyone passing by.

also worked a bit on the hp accessory but too lazy to continue for now...

this is the fire ball and the earth ball

Photobucket

he hangs so many weird balls... jeez. this is colorful ball.
