You KNOW that once I have a Corvette wig and ears (assuming her bunny ears are the same as her regular outfit) I'm making this, right? I'll just use leftovers of the blue fabric lol

This one in particular is clearly meant for hosting, so the beverages are a bit fancier than you might serve daily, but serving alcohol in coffee at breakfast wpuld be nearly unheard of now, even through that lens

If you can't have caffeine, don't worry, we have hot watered down cream for you!
Cambric tea : to those whose nerves forbid the use of tea or coffee, this mild, nutritious beverage is cordially commended. There is no milk-and-water insipidity about it, if the cream be genuine and the water on a fresh, violent boil. Recipe: the make 3/4 cup (175 ml) 1 sugar cube, 1/4 cup heavy cream, 1/2 cup boiling water. Put the sugar in a cup; add the cream; let stand a minute to melt the sugar, and fill the cup with the boiling water.

Ice cream! The ice cream is Model Magic. I also individually shaded all the corn flakes, even the ones you can't see I need to wait for this to dry so I can do another resin pour (chocolate sauce)

Tore them up into corn flakes I need to do a bit of work to add realistic depth, and they're a bit thick due to material limitations, but in the glass, they're certainly passable (Also I made too many oops)

Bottom layer is mystery goo, likely mint flavored and agar based. AKA resin Next is ambiguously granola but cornflakes sounded more fun Ice cream (Model Magic) and syrup (resin) and more ice cream Then 57 strawberries and some cookies (polymer clay) Ambiguous fruit will be melon. Again, fun to make

More leotard I have the layers basted now. I like to line leotards for a little bit more smoothness, and depending on the fabric, opacity

Did some tests with scrap vinyl for the outer trim, and while this needs some more finesse in the shape and size, the best method seems to be... the same method as the cutouts. It's just too shaped for anything else to work in these materials.

"Have you been sitting there this whole time struggling on the cutouts trim and then having to seam rip the center front trim three times" Yes I'm getting flashbacks to my first build of this and to my unworn Kei Dirtypair cosplay

The cutouts, no surprise, need contouring. I pinched in the excess and transferred the shape to the pattern, which I then cut and overlapped
