Update on mask!

It seems that I forgot to tell you all about Saturday's work on the mask!
So, I'll be updating you on both days!  Like a double feature, at a theater!  ;D

Saturday started off with sewing the balaclava, one of the most tedious things to sew, honestly.  I'm definitely buying them from now on...  Although, come to think of it, I won't actually be using them any longer since I'm done with foam/balaclava base heads.  Hurrah! Ha-ha.

After the balaclava was finished I started carving out the foam pieces of the face (muzzle/jaw, brow, cheeks) and put the ears on (unfurred)  Unfortunately though, since I can't seem to find my micro SD card adapter, photos of the unfurred foam base will have to wait.  :(

And that was Saturday!

Sunday I was unable to work, due to a very busy day!

And now, to Monday!  Which is today, I might add.

Today I worked for about 9 1/2 hours, possibly a bit more than that, but It's hard to keep track sometimes.

So today's project was to fur and finish the mask completely.  I got close to that goal.

Here are the photos!

Please remember these are all work-in-progress photos.

 I was watching a movie, hence the people on my computer :P

So now what's left is;  The neck, the blue hair floof, and the tongue.  Which will all be tackled tomorrow mornin'!  Seeing as it's 2:00 in the morning here and I am tired.  I would love to talk more about the things that were done on this mask but I can't think straight right now, so perhaps I'll edit this later.  If you have any questions on how I did anything, I would love to answer them!

Frustration!

Well, I was unable to work on any of the costume yesterday, due to having to get stuff packed to stay at my grandparents for a few days.

So today I pulled all my stuff out of the car, unpacked it to start working on the mask and guess what..  I forgot my balaclava pattern...  (I reeeeaaallly hate making these things..)  so I can't do ANY work on the mask, and won't be able to work on it until Saturday, my deadline is creepin' up so this is very very stressful for me.
And I'm in the middle of nowhere, so I can't go to a store and buy a balaclava.

Agh.....
Well I'll do a post on Saturday then, I guess.

Aaaandd Heeeere I go!

Well today I am working on a partial suit, a wolf to be exact (surprise, surprise eh? I love you wolfies, but jeez louise, the fandom sure has a lot of them!)

This will be finished by September 7th, and I'll try to do a blog every day, with progress pictures and information on what I got done that day.

So today starts off with making a balaclava (I hate making these things, I think I'm just going to buy them from now on...)  and then building up the foam base of the mask.  (This is my last foam base by the way, I'm done with 'toony and foam base masks) That just about sums up what will get done today, It's possible that I may get more done, but I doubt it... It's difficult for me to do more than that in one day!

When I'm finished working today, I'll post pictures and fill you in on how I did what and why!

So, go and have yourself a great day while I work!  :P
