tsukinofaerii: Whosoever findeth this hammer, if she be hot, shall wield the power of the gnarly Thor (Truth on Paper)

I've decided randomly and with absolutely no experience what-so-ever to make an Organization XIII jacket. With my vast monetary and temporal resources, it should be a snap.

Wow, sarcasm can drip.

Anyways, I've been pondering this idea for a while, but stumbling on some cosplay sites lately has pretty much pushed me over the edge. I want to play Axel. Badly. Really badly. Worse than I want to go to YaoiCon (which is amazing because I've never been to a Con and logic says that doing that should be better than being able to spike my hair, fall to the floor and say "he made me feel like I had a heart" in the best death scene EVAR). Since I've never managed to design and create any piece of clothing ever, I'm going to make a Barbie-sized one first. It won't have anywhere near the detail (no pockets!), but I'll be able to use smaller swatches of fabric and spend less time sewing. Three or four of them should give me the details of the pattern I need to make. In general, I think it'll be less expensive and as equally educational as starting with a full-sized one. I'll post pics as I go. It'll be something fun to drag to work with me. The Barbie one, not the real one, that is. @.@ Whoo-boy, the real one's going to be interesting. I haven't used a sewing machine since Jr High Home Ec. (10 years!) Everything I've done since then has been by hand. Even the Renaissance dress I made in my High School history class was done by hand.

One day I hope to manage a Shadow Heartless Plushie. *_*
