Shiki costume

[AznOtaku]

30 minutes.
A lot of PVC.
Photoshop + tiny image of a Taoist seal.
A wooden sword.

My Shiki sword is complete. Waiting for it to dry, but complete.

Anyway, all I'm waiting on is my friend, who's a costume-maker, to finish my costume. I haven't had the time to see the costume, nor did he send pics, but he said it'll be done by Friday, which is great since my party's on Saturday.

I'm just worried that, with the 5000 NT, or $150 and 6 day budget I gave him, he wouldn't create a fantastic job. He originally wanted 8000 NT, or $250, but after talking with him, he said he'd make what he can make with the budget...

I'm scared.

Of course, the sword (and 4 Taoist seals.) I would very much like the sword to be longer, but I have no choice. It's 52 cm long. Due to lighting, it's less white than reality.

I'll be doing repairs to the sword where I feel needs repairs.
