OH MY GOD LOOK WHAT I JUST DID !
Ok, so, the story starts exactly a week ago.
I was playing some casual games of TF2. The round hasn't started yet and I started looking around at my teammates.
That's when I saw an engineer pass by me with the "packable provisions" cosmetic.
I had never seen this cosmetic before and. I. Wanted it !
I didn't want the cosmetic, I wanted it in real life, as soon as I saw it I wanted this bag.
So, as for an other project of mine that isn't finished yet, I stared planning.
I sketched out the original cosmetic and then reworked it a little, to roughly fit the shape of a classic backpack, as well as adding or changing details to my liking. And made a liste of everything I would supposedly need.
That was a week ago and today I was finally able to go out and buy everything I would need.
I had the bag, I had the fabric, all I needed to do is start measuring and placing everything.
Like that. Then to sew it all in place.
Adding the details with paint and the pocket, etc...
AND IT'S DONE ! LOOK AT IT !
I'm so proud of what I was able to do !
It's not perfect, I don't sew very often and I probably could have done it better but... still... I think it's so cool !
It took me around 11 hours and a half to make it, I worked on it non stop as soon as I got home with the supplies.
I'm posting this right before going to bed, It's 2am right now... I'm so tired... but I have an awesome bag !!!
(Edit: I rebloged it with a little DIY of it... Kinda.)
