Sorry for not getting back to you sooner! @-@ There is a link to the tutorial I used in the description, all I changed is making the sides a little narrower so that the front and back were easier to see, but my dad took over and did that so I don't know the exact measurements Could check for you if you'd like, though? :3

Thank you for your answer ^ ^
It would be very great if you could look up the measurements, because I have absolutely no idea how big i should make it @_@

I'm sure it still looked fine I wouldn't have been able to make this at all if my dad didn't help me

Eh, mine [link] looks alright, but nowhere near as great as your's.

I recently fixed up some salt dough to sculpt an eye for the next one I make. However, the base will still be paper...

Holy heck that's paper? @-@ That looks so cool! 8D

And paper's not bad; I made a Millennium Rod out of cardboard and paper and it worked out XD

Yeah, it's paper. Thanks.

I made a miniature Millennium Rod out of a foam sheet, skewer, and Christmas bulb several years ago. =Fail.

lycanthropy666 In reply to Bayleef- [2009-09-10 18:20:21 +0000 UTC]

do you get the plywood from a hobby/craft shop or a hardware store?
i want 2 make my own puzzle because the one my uncle made for me years ago got smashed. i'm good at modelling, so i thought this would be a good project.
was it hard to make?

awesome work, by the way! awesome of awesomeness detail!

I wouldn't trust my measurements exactly; it's been over a year and I can't remember if they're right

I actually read this comment but totally forgot to check the measurements when I went home yesterday D8 Sorry!
I've no problem letting you know; is there a time limit by any chance? I'll try to get it as soon as possible but that could be Saturday week at the rate I'm going

And yup, it's made of Plywood With clay for the extra features and a curtain-handle for the hope at the top ^-^ Pretty simple, it's just cutting, gluing and sanding the wood right can be tough XD

NakuShiryou In reply to Bayleef- [2008-12-03 19:58:06 +0000 UTC]

It's alright!
There's no time limit (infact, we have a little TOO much time).
I could be patient for weeks on end, I'm sad to say.

Ah, plywood. The mother of all home made cosplay props (along with cardboard, styrofoam, and paper mache).
I hope we'll be able to pull this thing off as well as you did!

Purely as one cosplayer to another, could I ask a question?
I believe you've cosplayer Yami or Yugi before (if not, then completely ignore the rest of this and go about your life).
Well, me and a friend are planning on cosplaying the two (someday in the future) but it sometimes seems like we're the only two people in the world who like YuGiOh and that we might be blungeoned to death for even attempting.
So I was just wondering how your experience was, if it's not too personal to ask.

Thanks for you time either way!

Haha, well that's good! I'll be going home next Monday if not sooner, so I'll let you know then ok?
I'll also try and find the walkthrough I used... I changed the measurements and some of the process around to make it a bit easier but it's all you'll need to make it really

Haha, very true! If all else fails, Paper Mache and cardboard will save the day!

Haha, yup, I cosplayed a very poor attempt of Atem And to be honest, it was a great experience! Loads of fun and got a fair few complements even from people who didn't know the series There are a lot more fans out there that you'd think (Cause they're in hiding XD); if you'e going to a convention then checking out the forums is a good place to find out if there are other YGO cosplayers (there usually are) and you'll be set
I know it can be off-putting being a fan of something that gets so abused, but cosplay is all about having fun! Personally, I've never had a problem with bashers, but if you do just ignore them, cause they're jealous of your cosplays XD

I'm so glad you've agreeds to help me in the first place!
You really are a lovely person, and I'm glad to wait any amount of time.

I'm hoping not to turn to the cardboard cutout backup plan, useful though it may be in a tight spot.

I'm so relieved that you had a wonderful time.
I'm still abit nervous, which is to be expected I would suppose, but I'm at least a bit more at ease now.
And definitely take your advice about bashers.
Though if they start to bash my Yugi partner, then this Yami might have to pull out a Mind Crush or two, perhaps starts a few shadow games...
>D
Or, you know, I might just tell my mommy.

Ack! Late response is late! D8 I'm sorry, just catching up on stuff at the moment
Ok! I got my outlines and they're a little different than the design should be, but I'll give you what I made XD
Here's a link to the measurements I used for my puzzle and a little info on it:
[link]
And here's a link to the tutorial I used to make it ^-^ I took a few shortcuts, but it's fairly simple considering
[link]
Sorry again for the wait; I'm so slow! D8



Well that's going to be a natural concern; I was ok cause I'd been on the YGO board for ages before deciding to join them, so I knew there was already a large group going Still, my sister and I went as Beyblade characters, of which we were the only ones, and we had a grand time that was also! So don't worry too much ^-^
Mind-crushing bashers is very good though, yesyes No fire though DX
Ooo! Telling mother! Good move!

It's alright! All the time in the world over here.
And in time for Christmas! A lovely gift, then.
Thank you so much for your links!

I don't know if there would be any boards here.
Florida is the arm pit of civilization, I'm sad to say.
And what do you mean, no fire? It's not a good punishment if there's no fire. D;

And while I was waiting for you to reply, my Yugi sent me a link to all these hilarious works of art that were just adorable. We both end up quoting some of the comics/jokes daily.
So can you imagine my surprise when I looked up one shizzle-fine-dizzle day and saw ~Bayleef at the top of a picture she had sent me?
So while I'm at it, I just wanted to say I love your work.
And though it may be a long while before our cosplays are complete, be sure that one of Yugi's cosplay props will definitely be a muffin.
The question is: what kind?!?! **suspense**
