I ♥♥♥♥ your wig stand! Also, giant hair bow! :D

[sparklepipsi]

Would it be Sailor Moon cosplay without a giant bow?? I think not! xD

[reddheart]

Pretty pretty things! :)

I saw that your skit is up, but I have to watch it at home to really be clear on what's going on. With no sound, all I get is muted Clover Kareoke XD I am sure it will make more sense when there's an audio track!

[sparklepipsi]

Yay, thank you :D! And yeah, the song was basically the inspiration for our skit, so it probably will make a little more sense with the sound... although it's still in japanese, so maybe not...? haha!

[reddheart]

*LOL* I didn't understand the song, of course (I no has Japanese!), but being able to see it end to end was good and it was enough for me to get the gist of it.

Those damn Clover wingses *covetinghands!*... I want my own pair demmit..not because I know the characters you two did so much but because I always thought those wings looked awesome sauce. Hi, I'm an accesory dork XD

PS: I thought you would like to see this ;)

[midnight_rocket]

Looks purdy~!

Haha... If you ever have need of an outer senshi, I have Uranus's princess dress

[sparklepipsi]

Yay! We'll definitely let you know! It would be fun to do a full inners/outers group sometime :D

[phavorianne]

Eee~ How pretty! I like the color you chose! For my Princess Jupiter, dark green was the only green I could find the matching fabric in, but I really do think it's supposed to be more leafy like you said. XD I'd always imagined her dress to be something like a cabbage. LOL

[sparklepipsi]

Aw, I like the color of your dress, too :D! I actually think yours is a lot more accurate than mine... I just used a burda pattern with the bunchy slit up the side cuz I'm too lazy / don't have time to figure out the layers properly ^^;;. Your layers are so perfect! I love it *__*;

And honestly, the reference pictures are all so different from each other I'm sure you could make arguments for any shade of green... lol. I only started questioning myself when I searched for Princess Jupiter on ACP and saw pretty much everyone had picked dark green. Then I was like, wait, did I miss something? xD;

[phavorianne]

Aww, thanks~! Yeah, the layers are weird, and putting on my dress is kinda weird, too. lol @_@ Sometimes, getting it done in a timely manner is most important! XD

Haha, I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of the Jupiters picked a darker green because it was the closest color they could find. Very often when I'm searing for green fabrics, it seems like there aren't many options besides very pale or very dark. :x

[tavariel]

Beautiful! I think that green will look great on you. <3 We are going to be epic.

Can our photoshoot be outside so the SHINE won't be so ridiculous? I need to wake up early to take progress pictures of Mars in the sunshine...my flash-only pictures are not working out, lol.

[sparklepipsi]

Yes, I second outside photos >__<;;. Flashes definitely do not agree with that fabric. Unless the photog had preset up lighting or used a long exposure indoors, I'm sure we would just look like a bunch of lumpy messes, haha xD; The above shots were taken on my cell phone, of all things... my camera, no matter what I did, simply did not do that fabric justice ^^;;

And yay, I'm glad you like the color! For a minute I was afraid I might be ruining the group with my "wtf were you thinking" color choice... but I love it ; 3;!!
