It's one of those rare times when I have a bunch of projects virtually done and I'm digging for the last bit of energy that I need for the final push to get them out the door. (I have seven -no lie- SEVEN projects in that queue.) I'm going to have to spend a gajillion dollars on shipping too --especially now that they've raised the rates. Again. Feh.

Here's one of my projects: a Lust dress from Full Metal Alchemist:





I opted for a dark green (almost black) velvet (like my friend Grandis did with her Lust cosplay a few years ago.) I made the long spikes on the gloves by cutting triangular shapes out of styrene and then fashioning them into long cones which I then stuffed into sheaths that I'd made out of velvet. I had to sew zippers into the gloves too since they weren't stretchy. Lotsa work.

I will answer my e-mail as soon as I can. Busy week (well...busier than USUAL....)
