Princess Luna (update) Wing Patterns and Horn Prototyping part 1

Hi everypony
(This post is Pony related, so it seems fair that i use the language associated with the fandom i'm doing this costume for)

I've spent a large portion of today drawing pegasus pony wing patterns. Open and closed.
Ranging from patterns for wings for the younger characters, (e.g. Scootaloo), older ponies (e.g. Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy), I even did seperate patterns for the princesses, Luna and Celestia. Because no doubt, somepony who wants to do a pony cosplay will find them useful.
Photos will be up as soon as i find my camera.

This post also covers unicorn horns.
I made a small one today out of Du-kit, a modelling clay i referenced in an earlier post.
Making it was relatively straight forward.
I took about a third of the clay, then divided that in two.
made two shapes that resembled spikes.
Then twisted the two together. and your basically done.
But it seems a little heavy and a little small, especially at the length it needs to be for Luna, so i might try another way or find a way to make it lighter. this method would be fine for any unicorn character besides the princesses.


also considering doing costumes for: Lyra/Heartstrings, Twilight Sparkle and Derpy Hooves/Ditzy Doo
But i want to get some of my other cosplay costumes out of the way first, and i also want to attempt some Dr Horrible goggles, because those are just awesome.

That's it for this update

New Costume: Princess Luna

hi...
I didn't expect to be updating today.
This is one of the costumes i would like to get done before the end of 2012 (No i do not believe the world is going to end in 2012, it's just after that point i'll be getting ready to go or be going to University, so not much time for cosplay.... :(
This one makes me a little nervous though... Not as nervous as the Kaylee ruffle dress, but this one could be a little tricky. Especially after this character's sudden change in appearance from her first appearance in the second half of the pilot of season 1 to her next appearance in early season 2.
I'm talking about Princess Luna from My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic

I'm gonna go with her season 1 appearance, just because i like it more, and it's easy to match colours to, because she's not in darkness like she is in season 2.

Needed

Light blue semi-long wig - Need to buy
Dress - could be tricky as i want something a little old fashioned for her in a specific colour - might have to make myself....
Ears, Wings and Horn - I can make these myself
Shoes- buy
Crown- I could make this... but it could be just easier to buy a little kid tiara and decorate that.

That's it for this post
Happy Cosplaying
