KWY Atelier: Working~ working~

I had to move around the city last year and finally found THE place, so I started decorating with my office (of course)

It was long and painful but I did it.

Many know already that I like figures so I had to start with that!
Since I receive sometimes costumers to my atelier I needed a place from where to show my cosplays so they'll see what I'm capable of.

I not only make cosplay but daily cloths too I'm trying to work more on that and it really is a big motivation when people like the finishing product and it's even more awesome when they are geeks and otakus that like the decoration, it may have to change one day though...

Still I need to work in that place so I had to set up everything right away~

I'm still working on the decoration of the rest of the apartment ..It's going to take some time >_<

It's my little sactuary, there's stuff everywhere but only I can find myself here, I know where everything is and I feel so confy ...

Yes~ More figures~~

While in the process...I found an ideal spot for my Reimu <3

Reimu works with me all the time!

The result is rather chaotic with so many figures around but I like it, it says who I really am:
A crazy otaku girl, with crazy ideas. My office/atelier may look messy but I still like it!

Here's a few more photos:

Mata Ne!

Almost from the depths of R'lyeh ...almost!!

Yes! A new post! A new post!

OMG! Another post! yeah I know took me time and I'm ashamed of myself no worries (I'll take an ice-cold bath later...)

I'm sorry for the lack of updates but lately my life is kinda like a roller coaster, which it's good really , I mean I don't waste my time too much (just enough)

I realized the other stuff, like : I'm almost done with school, what I'm going to do after? What do I do with this blog? and of course my hobbies.
I like to share what I know with everyone and all but I lack of many things (time being the main one) but that won't stop, I will continue showing stuff around here, sewing mostly!

So yeah there will be updates this time, starting for from this week end and the it will come when less you expect it! Mwahahahaha!!!
So here I go again...

It's aliiiiiiiive!

Yeah, we are back from the Pit!

Since some stuff happened this year, the blog had to be on Hiatus without notice.
I moved twice but this time I'm staying in this place for sure.
Since this blog is about anime and Cosplay and I haven't had the chance to do/watch/read anything lately I'm going to start fusing the 2 blogs Osasaki's Place and the main site to add more content.

I'm also making a Facebook page when things are going to be a little more developed.
Contests will be held more later in the year (for Xmas if I'm able to put everything together) , there will be also Many tutorials to come for cosplay, fashion, DIY cute stuff, etc
We are now accepting collaborators for the site to add more content like video games and event over seas,
Just send me a message and we'll talk about it ^^

There also going to be some changes here and there like the Layout (again) and I'll even change from Blogspot to my own server :3

Hope you guys like it!

How to Pose Gracefully For Cosplay Photographing ?

Here is a guest article that was submitted to me about posing for cosplay photography that I would like to share:

Thanks to Au-chan to give me this opportunity to post this cosplay artiche here. This time i wanna share some tips for cosplayers . Usually we see many cosplayers being taken photos in conventions, but how to pose gracefully and make better cosplay photos, there are some tips below.

First, do not make head and body in a line, which seems rather stiff. When body faces towards the camera, turn head left or right slightly. The photo will be more elegant and lively. In the same way, when eyes look straightly to the camera, turn your body to a certain angle to seem more vivid, dynamic and enhance the three-dimensional sense.

Second, do not parallel your arms and legs. Under any situation, do not parallel arms and legs. When arms and legs are parallel, you will seem stiff and mechanical. So, you can bend your arms or legs. What’s more, you can make them at a certain angle. So, a picture with dynamic and changeable pose is created.

Third, try your best to accent your curves on your body. For female cosplayers, they attach much importance to show their curvaceous silhouettes. The most usual way is to stand on one leg. Then, lift another leg to lean on it. Turn around the hip until it shows the slimmest look. As the waist bends down, the bust will seem rather plump. Meanwhile, put one of your hands on your chest, which offers a necessary width to the picture.

Fourth, straighten your sitting posture. Shot while sitting, you shouldn’t sit with your entire body into the chair. In this case, excrescent fat will hunch and make your legs seem cumbersome. The right posture should be to lean your body towards and sit by the side of chair. Keep chest puffed out and abdomen in. Saggy shoulders and protruding stomach are both avoided.

Fifth, keep distance from the camera. Generally speaking, it’s much better to stay in a distant place while taking a figure photo. When the camera lens is rather close to people who will be photographed, it will become malformed. This especially makes sense on camera lens with a short focal length. Thus, make sure you have chosen a proper focal length and keep a certain distance with the camera.

Sixth, pose your hands properly. Hands do not occupy a big proportion in a photo. However, improper hand posture will damage the overall beauty. Pay attention to the integrity of your hands and do not make them look like distorted, fractured or caritive. While being akimbo or putting your hands in the pocket, you had better show parts of your figures to avoid an interceptive look.

A right posture is half done. To make your cosplay experience more significant, just pay more attention to how to pose for photographing.
