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! :)

Here's the Plan

Well, summer's coming up pretty quickly. After the series of unfortunate events leading up to Anime Boston 2014, I decided that I never wanted them to happen again. Now, I will probably end up doing something very similar at one point in the future (and it really can't be helped), but I have decided because of this to (attempt to) plan out my summer. Last summer I was loaded with AP homework, community service self-defense classes, working at my dojo, going to Drum Major Academy, and trying to squeeze in some cosplay (which for the most part, I didn't get around to) but this summer is going to be THE SUMMER OF COSPLAY! In my New Years Post, I revealed that I was planning on making a Hajime Ichinose cosplay and I still am, however this project is insanely large and insanely out of my comfort zone. Due to this, I've also complied a list of other cosplays to make so that I can generally keep my head on whilst inevitably failing many times with Hajime. This list includes:
  • FINISHING MY FRACKING ALOIS TRANCY COSPLAY ONCE AND FOR ALL!
  • Completing either my C.C. or Homura Akemi (both of which I have already begun).
  • Making my Senior Dress-Up Day costume (which I thought was going to be Zelda but now that I've taken on Hajime she may be off the table. I dunno--we'll see).
  • Starting both a 833 M17UN4 C4P70R (Bee Mituna Captor from Homestuck) and a Trickster Dirk Strider (also from Homestuck).
  • Designing and making the shoes, legs, and bodice of my Hajime Ichinose. (Preferably the arms as well but saving the wig, head piece, and skirt for later.)
Well, that is the plan. If I can get all of these crossed off my list (or even like three of the five crossed off my list), I will probably cry tears of joy. Look forward to it. And now back to the present. I will hopefully be going to Promstuck on June 8 on the Boston Common as (most likely) John Egbert. Hope this has you pumped! What are you doing for your SUMMER OF COSPLAY!? I'd love to know!--Leave a comment or email: wickedcosplay@yahoo.com. MadDog out!

  1. That sounds like a good plan. I am looking forward to seeing your C.C. cosplay. Which C.C. outfit are you going to make? Her first white one or a different one?
