Hihi~ Once again I wish to make an announcement, my computer has just returned to a functional state if you saw my previous posts that it was broken. Will buyers, if you haven't contacted me to verify your order details, please do so as soon as you can. As far as I can recall, two buyers have not confirmed their final details with me, if it is you, please do so soon. Otherwise it could delay the production process. We are entering the Halloween season and makers of costume products are having huge order backlogs.
As stated in the title of the post, the first suits will be good to go in nearly no time. The suits have arrived today and I will need to make a few hours to dye them. After dye-ing, they should dry over the weekend and I will be able to ship them to you.
All the masks have been casted and some sanded and polished. The cold temperature these few months made fibreglass resin poor to work with and slow to cure. That stage has been over now, and things should progress more timely from now on. I am now easily reachable contact me at anytime to get follow ups. I hope everyone has a good weekend and take care~^_^
Phew after a long duration of grueling torture, I have finally regain my freedom. That grueling torture which I'm speaking about are the days without a computer to use T_T. Haha... turned out that I realised that I can nearly do everything I need without a real computer thanks to the availability of iPhones and friends~^_^
Being free to move around again, I have hit a hard truth that I am super duper back logged in my duties and will have to get down to sorted them out asap. Having said that, I might be slow in my updates for a while (and since when is that new >_<)
There are a couple more mask orders which came in. Dear buyers, I truly thank you for your patience and support. I have casted all the masks and are still in the process of sanding and filling them. The wig orders are on their way and the suits should arrive in a matter of days. IF YOU ARE A BUYER, please drop me a message, either by MSN-Live or Email so that I can double check that I have not missed any details over the computer-less days. Also I will be able to give you personal updates if you request for it. Once again thank you.
The image above is of Mai Shiranui in her casual attire. The mask is no longer with me if you have been following the forums, the rightful owner has already received and have been using it. There are new images by the new owner in the forum gallery as well. The above signature picture is taken by me as a test for the mask when it was still with me... which is a long time ago. This only shows how backlogged I am lol~>_<
I have not have time to crop and prep the majority of the casual attire images to put them up but the other themed ones(waitress and cheongsam) can be found in earlier posts.
I have edited and published a new video of the Mai Shiranui mask attached below. Now that I've mentioned it, I wish to talk back on the topic of my computer again. I have sent the old high spec gaming laptop for repairs and will be back soon which I will sell it off afterwards, any interested parties?~^_^ That said, I have gotten a new laptop, brief specs are: Asus N61-JQ Intel-i7 ATI-HD5370-1GB 500GB-HDD 4GBDDR3 15.6" Blu-ray/DVD laptop. Its superb. It met all my stringent requirements for a new rig and also at a really affordable price~^_^ What most intrigued me is that the Quad Cores of the i7 in this latest model are actuall Quad Dual Logic Cores, which means I have a total of 8 Logical Cores. I'm overjoyed when I found that out by surprise. My friend's i7 only has 4 logical cores. Read more in the forums.
The new video is attached below. If you like it, I hope you can give it a full rating and do leave some comments. Thank you for visiting and I hope you will enjoy visiting the forums as well.~^_^
Have a great day~
My ultra high spec gaming laptop has bricked T_T and worse bit is that the warranty finished in February this year T_T T_T... I'm expecting an expensive repair as high spec gaming laptops with high spec integrated nVidia GeForce 8600M graphics cards costs a nuke and an international space station.
Worse bit is that service centres have been known to put non warrantied laptops on a lower priority but not sure if thats the case. Which means i might need to wait longer than normal. The thing is, if the repairs quoted me more than $400, I will buy the Asus G2S (my lappy toppy) mainboard from Ebay and replace it myself for $240. I can even upgrade the notebook CPU to 2.4Ghz Core 2 Duo for $85 more. But that of course will take about 2 weeks to arrive to me (usually 10 working days) which means... 2 weeks of using web and blogging on my iphone :(
Actually, whoever said mobile phones will take over computers in the future is spot on... they actually work pretty well, Just need to bear with a few microscopic issues.
Apart from that, I've been really really busy lately with my businesses. I haven't forgotten or neglected the kigurumi mask orders one bit, the accompanying HQ zentais are on their way~^_^ But I must warn that they will take a little longer than 2 weeks (i used to be able to finish and sell a mask in 2 weeks) more like 2+ months now. Well, still within market standards lol... and beaten it. Ok, nvm~ ^_^
The heading picture is a picture of Mai in her casual attire, something she might be wearing on a date with Terry Bogard~ Thats also the one of the pictures in the set which I wished to release if not for my lappy toppy turning into a paper weight. I'll put it up eventually, i really want to, Mai's so cute~>_<
In the meantime, do visit the forums and check for updates.
Its easier for me to reply there than make a new post cos I have limited heading images at the moment ^_^;
Will keep you updated~^_^
The new mask orders have got their HQ suit orders placed as well. If no problems alike to the last time occurs, the suits are expected to arrive to me in about 3 weeks time. Which then I can dye them and put them out to dry before shipping them. Thank you for your patience.
The image in the heading this time is also that of Mai Shiranui in casual attire. This is the last of the third shoots taken with the permission of her new owner. I will need the new owner to know a few things to watch out for as its a ponytail design and afterwards, hopefully more pictures will start popping up soon. There are two tops worn in the casual shoot, some videos have been taken as well. I'll be posting them up once I get the time to prepare them.
I'm going to be head over heels busy with several issues these upcoming weeks. Juggling with other work and the kigurumi hobby. Haven't got time to kig as much before, and I have a few spare masks that only recently successfully gave them away. Thank you to those who see value in the masks that have been idling from under use and taking them off my hands. I hope you will be able to enjoy them soon and perform as one seamlessly with them. Keep in touch messages in the forums or in email. I'll keep the updates constant, but feel free to ask anything anytime.
I found a little time on the weekend to put Asuka in a rather saucy kig, didn't take any pictures... but, had recorded a live chat video on Stickam. That day, Asuka went on Stickam and two other video chat places entertain viewers and spend time chatting. She wore a fully body shined black latex catsuit. You might notice that the back isn't as shined as she tried her best to do the shining herself >_<;
The live chat lasted about 5 hours and by then, Asuka is in need of a break. Took some videos for keep sake, and I've embedded them below. There are two videos altogether, I can't seem to save the Stickam videos right off without downloading a special program. So I thought never mind, I'll just leave it there, you can visit my Stickam page to view it. I think clicking on the video works. I hope you enjoy, give some feedback and ratings~^_^
I have officially started work on a new mask, laying the fibreglass and resin today. It will be another Saya custom for the anime/manga character Esther Blanchett from Trinity Blood. I kinda liked the anime very much when I saw it a couple of years back and is had definitely crossed my mind that Esther was really hot. So now I have to make a mask in her like, I guess that is gonna be really fun~^_^ If you're not familiar with the character I'm talking about, drop by the forum thread here, where she is introduced properly~ http://www.kigurumicosplay.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=845
Nowadays I'm really busy with a few things and will be multi-tasking a fair bit. Haven't got much time to chat online but I try my best to every now and then, making sure I at least read all the new forum topics and replies~ On occasional instances when I have a bit more energy left and felt like kigging, I will go on to Stickam and announce on twitter. Oh and thank you all for following me on Twitter, I'm not a Twitter-holic but I try to use it as a simple means to notify the general public if anything new is happening.
Took some time to prepare the second of three sets of Mai Shiranui photos which I took before I shipped the mask off to her new owner. The attire use in this case is a pink hot chinese dress that absolutely hugged Mai's Curves ~^_^; No, the third shoot doesn't have Mai's official game/anime costume, I don't have it and besides, the person whom that task will befall on is Cloe whose Mai's new owner~^_^ If you missed what happened earier, you can check out some of Mai's making and discussions in the forum topic designated for this mask here: http://www.kigurumicosplay.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=824
I posted the rest of the nicer pictures I took of Mai Shiranui in her cute pink cheongsam below. Come to think of it, its been a long time since I used the gallery. Most of the newer (and prettier too) pictures are all not found in the gallery but in the blog itself. If you've missed any, be sure to browse back to check the older pictures out~^_^
