Artist's Comments

This is a mermaid costume that I recently made. I have been planning on making this costume for so long now! I finally got around to making it, and taking photos at the beach. Quite a complicated experiment! =P But I had so much fun creating this and wearing it on the beach :D

Thank you!! :D It took me about a month to complete everything - the fins, top, necklaces, crown, and all of the beading - though I didn't work on it nonstop.

Thanks again, glad you like it!

no problem :) it turned out really well! i've always wanted to try to make a costume, mostly for cosplay and stuff, but i tend to stop working on something half-way through it xD

Thanks again very much!! :) I love making costumes for cosplay too, and I know what you mean, sometimes I stop mid way through a costume and want to work on something else =P

i've never worked with fabrics before, so it'd be tough if i ever decided to make one :p i'd end up sewing my fingers together

Oh, that wouldn't be good! =P Well maybe try hand sewing first if you do ever decide to sew a costume, that way you probably wouldn't sew your fingers together =P Do you have any specific costumes in mind that you'd like to create?

haha yeah, i could do that xD well, i'm obsessed with kingdom hearts, so i want to make a costume of kairi :] the only thing that bothers me is the fact that i wear glasses. they'd make the costume look weird, but i can't see without them, and i don't have contacts :/

Oh Kingdom Hearts, and a Kairi costume, that's cool! :) Aww don't be discouraged from making the costume because you wear glasses, I'm sure the costume would look awesome, glasses or no glasses! :) Give it a try sometime if you can! Good luck and have fun if you do make a Kairi costume :)
