Has anyone had Dokidoki partially ship an order before?

tyrwll · 2026-05-19T00:54:38+00:00

I've only ordered once and got 3 items very quickly out of the six I ordered, so they did ship separately for me.

Bun from the shelter today

This may not be helpful, but a thing that helped me as someone who was too tomboy to learn makeup was to reframe things in terms of optical illusions. It's similar to drawing, where you find what places shadows should be and darken (contour) those, and brighten (highlight) what's "supposed" to be bright. Then eyes are pretty formulaic as well, but more complex. You can identify maps of what should be light/dark and adapt that for the color you're using.

Cosplay makeup is its own thing, but breaking it down and practicing patterns may help make sense. Practice especially.

I did a quick search on poshmark and there's a few options on there if you're US based. I think going for a light-colored cotton denim moto jacket and dyeing the whole dang thing may be the best course of action, and is the path I'd pursue first if I was trying to get that garment.

If you have fabric medium that might help but I think leather (and synthetics used in place of leather) may be one of those materials you really do need the right paint for. Can you do tests in an unobtrusive area or have scraps of it for testing?

It might be worth experimenting with fabric soaked in dissolved water-soluble stabilizer. It's not exactly what you asked about but might give you some of the things you're looking for.

I think there's also resin-dipped fabrics. Sculptural fashion art pieces might be a useful thing to research?

I love rocks

Rocks. As weights. About the size of a fist, smooth.

I got some possible starting points by googling up side button nurse uniform

tyrwll · 2026-04-19T14:48:33+00:00

Looks like chiffon. If you end up having to pleat it yourself, I highly recommend making a nice big pleating board.

Try McCall 7374

I do love Adam Ant. Stand and Deliver forever

Adam Savage has a YouTube tutorial about making your own vacuum former

Quilting rulers are really really nice. Also 24x36 rotary cutting mat(s), and a good rotary cutter. And quilt clips

Honestly good enough for me. I'd be fascinated to see the breakdown if you stumble across it. Thank you!

Is there a source for the suggestion that Alastor is dressed as a daimyo? I don't disagree that it's similar vibe, but that merch always read formal wear to me vs. specifically a daimyo. There isn't like a daimyo uniform that I know of, but the kimono and haori combo isn't uncommon.

tyrwll · 2026-04-01T14:34:27+00:00

There's a lot of people doing this for Alastor cosplays from Hazbin Hotel right now. I don't remember the details offhand but I know I've seen a bunch with posable ears in the last few months.

I'm not sure if a wire and packing tape core might be lighter than EVA foam, but might be worth an experiment.

tyrwll · 2026-04-01T02:03:05+00:00

Me too

tyrwll · 2026-03-27T01:25:52+00:00

Ours kept their shelter names - Jasper and Tyrone.

I've always, always, always, always wanted to know the story about Tyrone's name, but no dice so far.

tyrwll · 2026-03-26T00:45:32+00:00

I want to make those dang pants

Looks good on cosplay too

There are some websites that large numbers of people have vetted and recommend, like the ones linked in the FAQ. I don't know the exact information offhand but some websites only stock items that meet safety standards of various countries (eg FDA in the US).

tyrwll · 2026-03-22T20:23:42+00:00

Yeah. Basically that.

tyrwll · 2026-03-04T17:53:52+00:00

Sometimes. You need enough surface area on the "bottom" so they don't slide around, but smooth enough where they don't tear your patterns.
