Finally, the breastplate for Venusaur is done! This project has me thinking about so many other original gijinka designs I'd like to tackle, but for now I'm just happy to approach the finish line with this one. Finishing a cosplay is really, REALLY hard for me without a looming deadline, and I'm sure others can relate. All that's left is the dress/tunic garment, belt, wig styling, and a few simple details. Wish me luck for finding the drive to do all the annoying tasks to get this baby done! If you're interested in seeing how I did the toad-skin texture, I posted a step by step tutorial for the process recently, and I'm happy to answer any questions you might have!
