Due to some problems at work, slow internet and a lot of other stuff I haven't been able to update for a while.

So sorry for the long wait. I'll try the next following weeks to update regularly (but I can't promise anything yet...)

First of all, my thoughts and prayers to the victims  in America (Boston, Texas, etc.).
Secondly, here's a small update of my cosplay progress.

List of things that still needs to be/ has been done:

   Cosplay Undertaker (Kuroshitsuji):

           Finished:
               - Lining coat has been added.
               - Buttons has been sewed on.
               - 2,5/12 pendants.
               - Sewed 6/9 buttonholes. (made a small mistake when counting them previously ^_^´)
               - Found chain to hang on pendants.

           WIP:
               - Adjust length of coat.
               - Create other pendants.
               - Sewing buttonholes.
               - Finish cookie jar.
               - Style wig.
               - Create other coat. (The one with the big sleeves)
               - ...

:-s A lot of things still needs to be done if I want this to be ready in July. Cross your fingers!

Sorry for being late with this update, however the last few weeks has been really busy for me. Between studying and some problems with work (which mostly are solved), I barely got the time to update everything (photos of cosplay will be posted soon, etc...). I will try to do this the following days, so please be a little patient. Thank you.

Coming soon...

Well, a lot has happened the last few days / weeks. With its ups and downs. I've been busy with work. Finally got Assassin's Creed III on Christmas' day (yay !), unfortunately I haven't been able to play alot. A few days before Christmas eve' I was cooking a dessert which needed caramel sticking to the sides of the cooking pot. Be carefull when you do this! While I was turning the cooking pot in order to get the caramel to stick the sides of the pot, I got some of it on my thumb. Result, a second degree burn on my thumb and I've been unable to use that thumb much... At the moment, it's healing pretty well. Got some burn salve to put it on daily and its bandaged most of the time in order to make sure no dirt or anything else can get into that wound.
Anyway, I've been trying to work on my costume for Undertaker as well as I was able to. Managed to paint 2 of the 6-8 small lockets. Although I had to be a bit creative since it was difficult not to use my thumb. But in the end, I think it looks really well. Pictures of it will be added soon.
Found as well a basic pattern which I'm going to use to create the first coat. (Normally Undertaker wears 2 coats, 1 with giant sleeves and the other which is a more tight-fitting one. The last one is the one I'm going to make first.)

Since it's the last hours of 2012, I wish you all a Happy New Year and the very best for 2013!
