(pics at bottom) I had really wanted a visual kei looking shirt but I dont have money to spend to get them shipped from Japan. Besides they tend to not fit me well, or there were things I liked about individual shirts I saw online that I wanted to combine. Basically after having looked up stenciling I went down to a dollar store and picked up 2 extra large shirts. Then, headed over to my local craft supply store to buy the cheapest fabric spray I could find.(Which was about $5) The collar I made off of watching a steam punk How to from Thread Bangers.(Check them out if you haven't already) I used one of my father's old shirts he cant fit into, bleached it white, and altered it to fit my neck better. With the shirts I made stencils and spend much time painting them then I altered one to fit better, cut it up, added fabrics to the cuts, cut off the sleeves, cut off the neck, made new sleeves and added the tails, then made gloves out of the old sleeves. ^-^ Since I already had much of the material it only cost about $7 Side notes: The tail is still not complete but I couldn't wait to post pictures. I'm sure it might be faster for you all to make these kinds of shirts but I procrastinate a lot so the time is a guesstimation =P <center> <a href="http://gi62.photobucket.com/groups/h114/8F3ULG1TVL/DSC00581.jpg" target="_blank"> <img src="http://gi62.photobucket.com/groups/h114/8F3ULG1TVL/th_DSC00581.jpg"></a> <a href="http://gi62.photobucket.com/groups/h114/8F3ULG1TVL/DSC00550.jpg" target="_blank"> <img src="http://gi62.photobucket.com/groups/h114/8F3ULG1TVL/th_DSC00550.jpg"></a> <a href="http://gi62.photobucket.com/groups/h114/8F3ULG1TVL/DSC00553.jpg" target="_blank"> <img src="http://gi62.photobucket.com/groups/h114/8F3ULG1TVL/th_DSC00553.jpg"></a> <a href="http://gi62.photobucket.com/groups/h114/8F3ULG1TVL/DSC00558.jpg" target="_blank"> <img src="http://gi62.photobucket.com/groups/h114/8F3ULG1TVL/th_DSC00558.jpg"></a> <br><br> <a href="http://gi62.photobucket.com/groups/h114/8F3ULG1TVL/DSC00576.jpg" target="_blank"> <img src="http://gi62.photobucket.com/groups/h114/8F3ULG1TVL/th_DSC00576.jpg"></a> <a href="http://gi62.photobucket.com/groups/h114/8F3ULG1TVL/DSC00574.jpg" target="_blank"> <img src="http://gi62.photobucket.com/groups/h114/8F3ULG1TVL/th_DSC00574.jpg"></a> <a href="http://gi62.photobucket.com/groups/h114/8F3ULG1TVL/DSC00573.jpg" target="_blank"> <img src="http://gi62.photobucket.com/groups/h114/8F3ULG1TVL/th_DSC00573.jpg"></a> <a href="http://gi62.photobucket.com/groups/h114/8F3ULG1TVL/DSC00572.jpg" target="_blank"> <img src="http://gi62.photobucket.com/groups/h114/8F3ULG1TVL/th_DSC00572.jpg"></a> <br><br> </center> I thought to add these since the other pics didn't show it complete.. lol and theres some.. cam whore ness =P
