DAZCOS US Size Adult Chi Chi Blue Dress Cosplay Costume

Product Information

It's perfect for working on cosplay, because I know that everything I make on the mannequin will fit me too!

I remember struggling so much with it, while it's actually a joke compared to a lot of other costumes I've made. To make sure the boots would keep their shape, I made a foam base and covered this foam base with fabric. I had quite a hard time finding the right shade of dark blue, but I'm pretty content with how this color turned out! As an act I decided to do the part with Chi-Chi's first appearance in the series (where she battles a dinosaur) combined with her picking flowers for Goku.Before this costume I've made 4 pairs and each of them fell apart quite quickly, no matter which tutorial I followed to make them. This was the base for version 2, I was a lot more pleased with this one and started shaping it more to become like Chi-Chi's helmet!

She looked incredibly cute, was very though, but became all girly and fiddly when her crush was around! In Chi-Chi's character design most of her hair pieces are quite "square" and I decided I wanted to literally recreate this effect. Which I actually quite like, because it's just after the part where I throw the blade from my helmet.

To be honest, I couldn't really point out in the design what these were, so I ended up just making small covers to have the effect. I checked all the photographers from last years' competition and a few new ones, but almost everyone seemed to have skipped going to the solo competitions and I only found pictures from the duo and group competitions.

View spoiler Hide spoiler I just re-measure myself every once in a while to see if I didn't get a lot fatter or thinner and see if the mannequin is still good. So the process you see here happens with at least 3 layers and most of them have to be undercoated in 2-4 different positions so everything can dry well. Seriously, industry-professionals having a Youtube channel that they use to show how they make their amazing stuff are the best! Normally I'm not the type for video-tutorials (I prefer pictures), but when a friend showed me his Youtube channel I was hooked! I’ve considered writing up a glove tutorial eventually since I wanted to toss one together for Sora’s (since a tutorial for that is non-existent) XD I’ve come across a few here and there.I always think it's funny how parts look burned so quickly, but nothing of that will be visible after undercoating and painting! I always start out with a paper prototype and if that prototype works out well, I make patterns from them. I got both positive and negative reactions on my color choice, but I think it looks very 80's, so I like it!
