Haha I'm a little worried about not getting my cosplays done either! I've been away at uni all year which means I don't have my sewing machine or room for all of my supplies... so my cosplay work is limited to whenever I'm home, which isn't too often. Although once exams are done, I have a month to crack down and finish my cosplays! This AN I'm mainly working on Oboro from Fire Emblem Fates (which I technically started after AN 2017). I'm done her wig, spear, armour, and leggings, but I still have to pattern out and buy fabric for her undershirt, shirt, dress and skirt lining! I'm not greatly experienced with hand-making all elements of my cosplays so working on Oboro should be a little challenging and hopefully fun!

Uni eats up time and emotional stability.... Can't wait until 21st April! Yo never played fates but quick google search she looks cool (she also looks really sarcastic)! Is she gonna be your main (Saturday) cosplay? Hopefully your project works out! It's really satisfying to finish a project and learn new things that can be used for future projects! Good luck!

Thank you for making this! Very good idea. I stickied it. As for me: I have my outfits ready save for a few minor details that I need to get working on (fixing Cindy's boots, and I have work on some stuff for 2B for her fake boots). I'm also working on a sword for 2B (the Faith sword). If I have time I would like to do her black box as well... Ahhhhh I need to have better use of my time. 50 days is lots of time, but it goes by fast and i am also working out every day too! That's also part of my cosplaying.... speaking of.... i need to go work out right now.

Last year I lost just over 30 lbs for my Cindy cosplay lol. This year is about maintenance and flexibility.

I'm making a large portion of my cosplays from scratch and it worries me I won't make it in time for Anime North esp cuz I've never made things like Armour or large props before...

lord save me, i somehow thought it's be possible to be in the middle of planning my summer wedding, while working/paneling 2 conventions, and making 4 new costumes for said conventions all around the same time frame. Just shoot me now.
Only one new cosplay for Anime North this year which is Ozen from made in abyss. her jacket is almost done. I'm dredding the trial and error that will be the wig and turning my 15year old goth platforms into her boots. I'm also wearing Mito from FoodWars, which i've only worn at Colossalcon so far. Tom from Mystic Messenger as an easy night cosplay-same with drunk Yuuri in booty shorts for after hours, and Shura from Blue Exorcist whom i've done a few times.

I have an idea of how to modify hockey shin guards for the leg armor and the shield i have an idea for as well... shouldnt be too hard if i put my mind to it
