How to make Bootcovers Part 1 of 2 - permanent by Mokuyo

How to make Bootcovers Part 1 of 2 - permanent by Mokuyo

I was asked many times, how I make my bootcovers.
So I made a tutorial for you with my latest bootcovers for my Rei Plugsuit 3.0
It's the first tutorial I made.

I hope it will help you at least a bit.

Here you see permanent bootcovers.
In the next Part (wich I still have to make) I will show you my way to make removable bootcovers (like the ones for my Trick or Treat Ciel, Rei Testplugsuit or Kirakishou).

Looks awesome! I'm about to make boot covers for the first time in my next cosplay, hopefully it'll work~

If you still have any questions, just ask me ^^
And you should also take a look at part two if you haven't already ^^

But I'm pretty sure it will work!
I would love to see your results! <3

Question.. So it the bottom sole open then? Coz you didn't mention stitching it closed

Mokuyo Featured By Owner Jul 17, 2014 Hobbyist Artist

For the permanent bootcovers I haven't made a fabric sole. I used the original sole of the shoes.
I myself only use fabric soles for the removable bootcovers. Just watch Part 2 of the tutorial <3

Ah! Schade, dass Part 2 noch nicht fertig ist.
Ich bräuchte die Hiolfe für mein Hikari Yagami Cosplay xD
Aber dies hier ist schon spitze, weiter so!

Mokuyo Featured By Owner Apr 22, 2014 Hobbyist Artist

Part 2 werde ich anhand meines nächsten Cosplays machen an welchem ich bereits sitze.
Ich sollte also nicht mehr sooooo lange dauern ^^

KleinerKolibriPixel Featured By Owner Apr 23, 2014 Hobbyist Digital Artist

Das wär cool xD
Danke!

Mokuyo Featured By Owner Apr 24, 2014 Hobbyist Artist

Auf jeden Fall ^^
Halt einfach die Augen offen ^^

I wanna try, wonder if it'll work on non-stretchy fabric @_@

Mokuyo Featured By Owner Mar 28, 2014 Hobbyist Artist

I guess for non stretchy fabric you need a zipper, buttons or something other to close the Covers or els you will not be able to get you feet into she shoes.
But the rest should also work with non-stretchy fabrics. Maybe make them a little bit bigger for the first try.

I'm happy when I can help with this lil' tutorial.

BellaHime Featured By Owner Oct 25, 2013 Hobbyist

UAHH danke dir für dieses tutorial *_*

du glaubst gar nit wie sehr ich dich dafür liebe

HAHA

endlich kann ich schuhe überziehen probieren, weil ichs endlich verstehe HAHA

hast du zufällig auch ne idee bei stöckeln?

auch einfach mitabzeichnen oder würdest du das extra machen? :3

Mokuyo Featured By Owner Oct 25, 2013 Hobbyist Artist

Awwwww, das freut mich riesig!!!!
Hm, willst du die Absätze mit überziehen oder sollen die so bleiben wie sie sind?
Absetze überziehen kann ich (bis jetzt) auch nur permanent, Stoff nehmen drauf kleben, überschüssiges wegschneiden.
In jedem Fall beim Aufzeichnen den Absatz erst mal weglassen und separat machen.

BellaHime Featured By Owner Oct 25, 2013 Hobbyist

ja den würd ich dann auch mitmachen

okay. dann muss ich mir billige schuhe kaufen, die ich verkleben kann *HAHA*

danke dir

Mokuyo Featured By Owner Oct 25, 2013 Hobbyist Artist

Und noch nen Tipp, zum Absätze bekleben, nimm den Stoff diagonal, dann passt er sich besser an die Form an.

hier kannst du ein klein wenig meine beklebten Absätze sehen ^^

BellaHime Featured By Owner Oct 25, 2013 Hobbyist

ahhhh okay

dankeeee

Mokuyo Featured By Owner Oct 25, 2013 Hobbyist Artist

Mokuyo Featured By Owner Oct 21, 2013 Hobbyist Artist

I'm happy I could help you with my tutorial.

joakim-desu Featured By Owner Oct 16, 2013

omg thank you so much, i'll definitely need when i make a plugsuit cosplay

Mokuyo Featured By Owner Oct 17, 2013 Hobbyist Artist

You are very welcome!
Which plugsuit do you plan to make?

joakim-desu Featured By Owner Oct 17, 2013

hmm, I was thinking either Kaworu from You Can (Not) Redo or either Asuka from the same movie, it'll be though but i was thinking if i did Asuka's i could wear her hoodie so I don't have to make everything so perfect

It won't be until some time though

Mokuyo Featured By Owner Oct 17, 2013 Hobbyist Artist

This idea sounds great!
And when you are a bit more confinent with making plugsuits, than you can Kaworu's ^^
I wish you lots of luck and fun!
If you want to, send me a link to your finishes plugsuit! <3
