Thoughts:

I couldn't sleep and my brother was occupying the computer, so I whipped up this cute little Asuka bikini. ^_^ I had wanted it for a long time and am very happy with the results! I already had all the materials I needed.

Construction:

Bikini: I used the top and bottom of a leotard pattern and cut the white lycra out. Then I used a panning technique to cut out white strips and replace them with strips of red lycra. Lastly, I put in the front zipper.

Sunglasses: I bought these at a dollar store. The rims were clear so I just painted white behind them to make them appear white.

Hairclips: I crafted these out of sculpy, painted them, glazed them, and attached them to metal hair clasps.
