Cosplay Accessories : Hair Clips, Earring, Glasses

    I made two accessories from scratch and that's hair clips and earring. For the glasses, I tried to find a distributor with a design as close as possible to Alban's glasses. Unfortunately, these glasses are not ready for sale now. I think it is necessary to find another distributor, because at the first purchase yesterday it seemed that a lot of problems occurred. So, I was a little hesitant to buy a second time. 

    For the hair clip, I use eva foam with two different sizes, then it is colored according to Alban's design. For the finishing part, I gave a clear colored spray paint on the top of this hair clip. 

    On the earrings, I spent a little time making / cutting the shape of this triangle. The smaller the shape of the accessories, the harder it is to make, but on the one hand this makes it easier to make them in bulk. So, when making / restocking these accessories, I will make a very large amount.

    The above products are already available on my e-commerce storefront. This store has been integrated for overseas sales, so that people from Asia (under the auspices of this e-commerce system) can already order products from their respective countries.

 Thank You Customers!

    I am very grateful for the enthusiasm of the customers in my e-commerce store. Many of the products I made from the previous few months, finally got their first buyer. For me this is a good achievement in the development of my store.

Ecommerce Order | Early - Mid April 2022

    This month is colored with products from Nijisanji EN, Chainsaw Man and Spy X Family. To be honest, I felt that I got an achievement when managed to get a buyer from abroad. At this time I got a customer from Thailand. This is the first time my store has received a customer from this country.

April First Batch | E-commerce Order

    From March, there were quite a lot of customers in my store. They buy a wide variety of products and I'm happy with the development of this sale. The beginning of the month has been colored by customer looking for Luca Kaneshiro's brooch. I don't stock up much for this item, So that when purchased, the item is immediately sold out.

    This April. I am very grateful to God that I was able to complete many orders well. When customers responded and rated positively to my store, it had a positive impact on my mind. Actually. the orders at the beginning of April came quite consecutively and fortunately I was not too overwhelmed to do it because I've calculated the time of the workmanship of each items I sold in my store.

    I will include a photo of each item sold with the customer's name on the thank you letter. For me, making a thank you letter to buyer is an expression of my gratitude for the purchase of each item.

 Art Block : CSP Pro Vs. Paint Tool Sai 2

    I've been having art blocks since January 2022. I tried to draw from the start of the pose, but couldn't finish any artwork. Eventually I piled up a lot of reeference poses that I made myself. I thought, even if I'm just drawing a rough sketch, it doesn't matter, maybe I can use it in the next few months.

    I had a lot of trouble because I wanted to sharpen my skills with Clip Studio Paint Pro and run into some obstacles. I was originally a user of Paint Tool Sai 2 and already have my own style and color palette. When I tried to bring that color palette to CSP, it turned out that the result was different with a more doff color impression. I was quite surprised and at the moment I'm still facing the same obstacles.

March Artwork : Genshin Impact Fanart

    Finally in March, I ventured to try again using CSP Pro I started sketching Kamisato Ayato and the results turned out to be quite satisfactory. Really, when you're comfortable with drawing applications (pen stabiliser, interface and tools) I think it will be quite time consuming to re-adjust yourself. 

    I sketched and colored using the two apps above. Of course, there are advantages and disadvantages.  I can't just stand still and am currently trying to conquer it by looking at tutorials on YouTube and trying it directly. I think if I consistently try and practice then there will be good results to be had.

    These are the two artworks I produced in March. It's quite a bit but this is a good start from someone who has just experienced art block.

 Genshin Vs. Nijisanji EN

    Starting in February, I added a new product variant such as Nijisanji EN Vtuber cosplay accessories and in March this has shown significant changes to the order of goods in e-commerce stores. Nijisanji EN products have now reached out to buyers. To be honest, it is more difficult to develop Nijisanji products compared to Genshin. For me the selection of my goods is very important, so in the manufacture of one product I need to explore many stores to get the materials as I wish.

    Some of the Genshin products I made a few months ago have been purchased by buyers. At first I didn't expect that anyone would buy because the price was quite above average with the size of the product. It feels like when the goods reach the buyer and get a good rating from the results of your hard work it is very pleasant.

Thank You for Purchasing Our Products

    The products in our store in March reached one overseas buyer (Singapore ) and the rest from local buyers (Indonesia). The fun thing is when you can attract buyers from different regions (usually we get buyers from West Java and DKI Jakarta). But this time we managed to expand to Kalimantan and Central Java.

    This March I also tried to open customized accessories to customers. Actually the desired product is in the storefront but the size is too big and the customer asked if I can do custom on the accessories. At first I refused but after a few conversations afterwards, I accepted and managed to finish well. The buyer is also happy withh the results and give our store a five-star rating.

    I will put a photo of the product that has been purchased by the customer below. There is no scattered customer data, only photos of products before they are sent to the delivery courier.

 HAPPY BIRTHDAY LUCA

    Today (04/10) is Luca Kaneshiro birthday, I devoted this blog entry to commemorating Luca's birthday.  I made several Luca's accessoies, such as : a gun and a heart brooch in March and the rest (chain triangle brooches & necklace set) this April. Actually, I have no plans to make Luca's complete accessories entirely because of my limited abilities. When I make a product, I want it to be used well and also useful for the buyer.

    Therefore, it is very important to test the product before it is shipped / marketed in e-commerce, so that you can ensure the shortcomings and turns off when the product is launched everything is in good condition.

LUCA KANESHIRO COSPLAY ACCESSORIES | E-COMMERCE PRODUCTS

    I made hairpins, suit brooches (chain triangle brooches, gun and heart brooches) and necklace sets for Luka Kaneshiro cosplay. With a lot going on in March (personal affairs in private life), fortunately in April I was able to release quite a lot of new products.

    There are many trial and error processes in making this, but not all of the processes I captured in photos, so this time I only posted photos of products. The store link I will put below, let's visit to have a look.
