After months of off-and-on work, my first sewing project (and biggest art project period) is complete!
Big thanks to Best Dressed Bears on Etsy for making the patterns I used! I edited the base of the lab coat pretty heavily (I used the sweet dreams pajamas as a jumping-off point) as well as made minor changes to their free mittens pattern, but the pants are unchanged. (If you plan on making their pants for your Cinnamoroll BAB, be warned that you will have to re-measure and edit the pattern to account for his large tail or else they won't fit properly!)
The TF2 Momocon photoshoot has concluded!!! This was so much fun and it wonderful to see this fandom still thriving! 🐍✨ All photos from the photoshoot can be found on my twin's (the host) instagram @/big.mood.tsubasa (she is also Miss Pauling in the pic with me and another BLU Spy! @hoshi-tsubasa) 🍰💖
Thank you to everyone who attended! For those who missed out today I hope I was able to see you at the TF2 panel that was hosted later in the day!
So I wore my BLU medic for the first time in forever! The jacket is completely new (and I might have sewed the final coat the day before con and barely slept Wednesday night) but the props are the same old babies from 13 years ago! Also, the patches I embroidered myself on an embroidery machine! My first time doing that. The files themselves are from @dreamdancerdotfile
My wife @dessartem was BLU Soldier for the first time! People loved her, especially the Pain Train prop she made. Also BLU is underrepresented in general so that's cool to see. Her coat I made from a vintage trench coat from Ebay, it was so perfect, I just had to shorten it, and add elastic sleeve cuffs / shoulder tabs (using the fabric I cut off).
IT IS NOT DONE DW, I still have blood and weathering and more cleanup to do, and I feel like I should've painted the base black instead of white cause it shows up in some cracks but!! I am making progress!!!
