a cartoon girl with pink hair and black eyes

Asako Shura @asakoshura.bsky.social · 6d

I'm going to try to do something for Halloween at least, although I'm not fully sure given the amount of work and other such things that I have to actually deal with too. Which is...definitely lots and lots of fun, I swear.

I had to unexpectedly watch a neighbor's kid all weekend, and that left me with actually no time to work on any other projects. Even when I got the chance to work on stuff, I was kinda too exhausted to.

So yeah, very much on the scrambled side of things, but thank you to everyone who checked out this week's update.
Hopefully, I'll have something more fun to show off next time, or even a proper photoshoot.
Please stay safe, and see you next time.

sailor mercury from sailor moon is standing in front of a full moon with her shadow behind her .

Asako Shura @asakoshura.bsky.social · 13d

It doesn't fully help that I'm kinda stuck in a Sailor Moon mood due to recently getting my hands on the OG series, which has been rather interesting going through. The amount of references is just...unique and interesting. Might need to cosplay them later.

Had a pretty big emergency over the weekend, on top of everything else going on, so I didn't get the chance to really work on anything, yet alone try to take any pictures.

I need to reread it again, but wasn't an important detail about 1984 that it was written in the past tense, after the party was gone?

a girl in a pink and white dress is holding a blue book

Asako Shura @asakoshura.bsky.social · 20d

I'm not sure if I will actually get a chance to wear her this month, but I'm definitely going to try to find somewhere I can show off, or at least some kind of cosplay shoot. Either way, it was fun to work on, and I recommend the tutorial for others.

I followed that tutorial from last time, and while I still need to seal the whole thing together, I managed to get the hat done in only about 1.5 hrs. Which, considering how it turned out, is actually pretty nice.

"Oh, it's you? Don't worry, I'm sure I'll be fine."

I decided to draw #Stacia from #UnLight, one of the games that I'm incredibly sad isn't anywhere near as popular as it should be.

Asako Shura @asakoshura.bsky.social · 27d

If I'm lucky, I should be able to get everything ready over the course of the week for a small convention over the weekend. Not making too much of a promise, but it should at least be cute when I get everything done.

Nurse Joy cosplay tutorial - Hat

Asako Shura @asakoshura.bsky.social · 27d

Weekly #cosplay update 37!
I managed to find a good cosplay for Nurse Joy's hat, with the hardest part of the situation genuinely being just me figuring out where to even get all of the foam I need, since no one really has white foam anymore.

a video game character is standing in a room with a plant

Asako Shura @asakoshura.bsky.social · Sep 30

Hopefully, I'll be able to get enough of Lusamine done that I should be able to still finish Aigis this year too, although I'm still not fully sure where exactly I should wear her when I do get the chance. Open to suggestions on any conventions I could try.

I managed to finally get in the wig for Lusamine, as well as more of the supplies I need to make the Nurse Joy! I'm not sure when I'll get a chance to actually cosplay them both, but I'm definitely going to try to this month.

a cartoon character is drinking from a teacup

Asako Shura @asakoshura.bsky.social · Sep 23

I'm not sure if I'll cosplay Haru or someone else, but I AM going to do at least one cosplay shoot next month, since Halloween is the best time of year for going around in cosplays, and gives me a better goal for the ones that need work.

While not the best example, I did realize that I can use parts from Nurse Joy to "replicate" parts of Haru, since her jacket doesn't really fit onto me right anymore. So that does mean I can try to do a quick cosplay shoot of her later.
