Welcome Beings of All Sorts

Welcome beings of all sorts! Somehow, you have found this blog. :D I congratulate you on that whether it was through success or failure! My name is Madeleine Schmuch aka MadDog and I am an amateur cosplayer. I will also be your guide here. This blog came to be because I needed to organize my cosplays and constantly work on them so that I would finish them. I thought that if I had a commitment to post I would work more often and would not forget important things. This blog started off as being called "MadDog's Sewing" but has since then turned into a guide to cosplay and has taken on the new name "MadDog's Wicked Guide to Wicked Cosplay." That being said, I'm terrible with names. This blog should really be called "MadDog's Tips That She's Found to be Useful and is now Sharing on a Blog in Hopes That They Might Help Somebody Else in Their Efforts to Cosplay." That name fits this blog much better however, it was a little bit too long. Moving on, I've added new sections to make this blog more informative but they are almost all ongoing sections. (If you need information on certain things now, please shoot me an email. Email: wickedcosplay@yahoo.com) Whether you just want to follow my projects or learn how to start cosplaying, I'm hoping that this blog will be a help. MadDog out! :)

More Fullmetal Alchemist Shoes (Pride Edition)

Hello again! I bring you more Fullmetal Alchemist themed shoes. This time around, they are more closely themed with the character Pride. I've made converse with Flamel symbols on them (Click Here to See) and flats with manga pages from Fullmetal Alchemist on them (Click Here to See) but now I bring you converse painted with shadows! All I did was use some fabric paint on some old shoes to achieve this dorky and amazing look. Hope it was worth a look. MadDog out!

DIY Dork Shirts (Edition: Dragon Ball Z and Attack on Titan)

So... I like Dragon Ball Z and I keep seeing the awesome ghi top in t-shirt style everywhere but I can't actually spend $20 on a t-shirt when I could be using it on cosplay... So instead I made one. I got myself a really cheap orange t-shirt that was even cheaper because I had a coupon and it was on sale and I used fabric paint to make the symbols on the front and back. That's about it and here's how it came out. I also said I 'd take a picture of the birthday gifts I made a while back so here's the Recon Corps shirt I made for my friend too. (Same method but with a little more effort.) Hope you like! MadDog out!

Other People Everyday Cosplay #3

So, it is the homecoming time of year and that means that (at least at my school) it is spirit week! (....woooo....) But that's not the point now is it!? To sum things up, today was crazy hat day and my friend, Mae, had made this wicked amazing Midna hat that she wore. I thought you guys would totally want to see it because it is amazing! So that's all. See ya. MadDog out!

Random Cosplay Tips #4

  • If you are going to be wearing shoes that give you blisters for the whole a day, do yourself a favor and put bandaids on your feet before you start your day.
  • Research before you take on crazy, what would usually be considered out of your ability projects.
  • It's always better to have too much fabric than too little.
  • If you can get away with it, use lightweight material when making your props.
  • Always aim for perfection! 
Just a bit of randomness to tide you over! MadDog out!

My Everyday Cosplays #5

HELLO!!! I'm sorry sorry I haven't posted in a while--I'm in the middle of tech week and the show I'm in is going up tomorrow night! The only reason I even have something to post right now is because we try to advertise at my school by dressing up weirdly. Today was Nerd Day so I ended up casual cosplaying as Misty (from Pokémon). Just thought you might enjoy. As soon as my life is back in order, I will post new stuff--I'm so sorry guys. (Also sorry if this post makes no sense. And the fact that this picture was taken in my school's bathroom. D: Yeah.) I don't own a solid yellow shirt so, as you can see, this is my drum major academy shirt turned inside-out. I'm wearing the tights not because Misty wears black tights but because, I don't know about wear you live, but here in Massachusetts, it is fracking cold. Well, that's about it. MadDog out!
