New mask completed~^_^

The new mask is finished. Phew, at last~
The costume for the mask has not arrived yet, so I reckon I'll either wait for it to arrive, or wear something else first.
But I can't think of what to wear which will look nice, as well as match this character. The details of the final stages of this mask's production as well as its entire production process has been updated into the forums.
Drop by to check out the full details~^_^

Winter as white lolita angel video added to respective gallery.

Hi everyone, I did an update today on the Winter lolita angel gallery page. Its been a while since the shoot was over and I finally got a little time to put up the video. If you pay attention to the entire clip, the video has a part taking with the black lace gloves and another section taken without the black lave gloves on. Oh and a section with the ponytail infront and another with the ponytail behind @_@... Check out the video and help me out by leaving a comment or rating okie~^_^

Have you been following my latest mask making process? Its almost finished. Today, I added in the foam paddings inside the mask and painted the mask skin tone. I suppose everything will be completed in 1-2 days time. If all goes smoothly. After everything is finished... it still takes a couple of days for the smell of the paint and glue and fibreglass to dissipate. I just can't wait to find out how its going to look like in the end @_@

PVC bodysuit euphoria~

I had to buy talcum powder in order to be able to put this on. The PVC skin toned full bodysuit is that tight. I was pretty excited when my PVC zentai arrived today, I can't wait to try it on. On the first attemp, I realised that it is unimaginably tight and so hard to put on I struggled for ages to get into it. To make matters worse, the PVC kept sticking onto my skin, making it very hard to pull it smoothly over every part of me. Took me a total of 20 mins just to put on the bodysuit. It was really hard to move in it, being tighter than a normal lycra zentai. Feels almost like 5 layers of lycra zentai with only one layer of PVC. Looking in the mirror, I realised that the colour suit is extremely glossy looking and fits most of the curves on my body perfectly. It was getting really hot then, so I took it off. Stretch marks appeared on the suit, I suppose PVC can't take too much pulling since its so tight. I thought I better get some talcum powder to ease the wearing process as I've heard it helps when wearing tight fitting plastic clothes.

So in the evening, I took out the suit and another costume to do a shoot in. I applied talcum to the legs, plenty of it. Then I slip into the PVC suit one leg at a time. The PVC starts to cling onto my legs as soon as it reaches to narrow part, but it was easier to pull it through this time with the help of the powder. I knew I had to do it quickly, as sure enough, the air tight PVC made the sides of my legs start to get damp very fast. If the powder doesn't keep the legs dry long enough, the PVC will stick to my skin again. I quickly squeeze the toes into the toes of the suit and pull the suit's leg over my whole leg as high as I can. I repeated the same for the other leg.

Wearing PVC clothes always made alot of noise, this time was no different. There were rubber friction sounds the whole time and its a noisy process -__-~ By the time I pulled the suit over both my legs, I can already feel the heat on the skin and the suit has began sticking onto the skin of my legs. Then I proceeded to put in my hands. Same procedure, so I'm not going to repeat it again. Just powdered myself ..lots. I had a less hard time wearing it with powder than without but it was still not easy. Maybe the suit is a little too tight, but I specifically requested for it, so that it will hug as close to my skin as it can.

After pulling the hood over and closing the zipper, it felt like I'm in another world >_<>_< still... mini shoot hehe. After taking the pictures and videos, I had a short live chat. Not that short in fact... lasted for about 4 hours. You won't imagine what had become inside the suit after that long hehe ^_^ I can feel little bits of water slushing around my toes, I know thats from the perspiration in the suit. The suit has now stick onto the skin 210% which left very little creases all over. I was quite pleased with the look as the PVC was soo body hugging, it left almost not creases unless my joints bend. All thats under the golden cheongsam now is a glossy, smooth plastic figurine. On the inside, its a totally different situation, but its invisible to viewers. It seems that the longer one has been wearing the suit, the harder is becomes to take it off. Firstly due to the extreme euphoria and comfort of staying in the suit. Secondly because its all stuck.

After satisfying my viewers and fans, I decided I need to change. Its quite late, and I was going to sleep in the suit initially. It was just too captivating to keep it on. For a while, I have the suit on before I eventually took it off. Inside the suit is all wet, I had to hang the suit up to dry. I expect a day. The suit has taken alot of stretching, its PVC afterall, not latex. Its rubber coated cloth. Being so good to wear and looks fantastic, its still however not a suitable choice for normal kigurumi use. It gets damaged too quickly and its too inflexible. If I were to use it eveyrtime for kig, it wouldn't last 20 sessions and peeling of the rubber will become obvious. The suit is not that costly, I intend to get a newer pair once this one wears out. The experience was simply ecstatic. You can be sure that i'll be revisiting this new world I discovered soon~^_^. I've posted some pictures I took below, I hope you like it. Do tell me what you think in the forums too if you wish~. Enjoy~<3

Fibreglassing stage completed.~yay

The casts fill with fibreglass has just been removed and the raw fibreglass masks have emerged. This time it went by alot quicker and smoother than before thanks to better understanding and experience from the previous attempt. I've given it some heavy sanding to sand away all the hard and sharp edges. Now all I left to do it to do some overall sanding, cutting to make things as smooth as I can before filling the uneveness with putty. Left a few more steps to go, but most of them are much easier than the earlier steps. Hopefully, by next week, the mask will be completed. Hang around, I'll post more pics of the work progress. Oh and check out the forums for a more detailed overview of the process.
