Hachiihoney Posted January 21, 2023 (edited) Hello everyone! Finally out of new member status and I'm super excited to be sharing progress of my girl Honey, dressing up as Marin Kitagawa from My dress up darling! I sadly didn't take as many photos as I would have liked during the process of finding and locating bits and pieces that makes Marin, marin, but I would like to present the first pass of her almost complete cosplay! I'm still waiting on some japanese school shoes, a better fitting bangle and some additional stuff here and there... Including a face up I decided to commission an artist for. Will update this thread along the way as I nail her details down~ Thank you for sharing this journey with me!

Hachiihoney Posted January 21, 2023 Found some older work in progress photos of the back view of her wig and attaching her nails will some hobby craft glue to her extra hands~ 💖 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RetroKanojo Posted January 21, 2023 I've never seen 'My dress up daring!', but your Marin really looks adorable. Judging by the name of the series, I assume she's a fairly fashionable character with lots of alternative outfits? That's perfect for a Dollfie, isn't it! I'm really curious to see how she'll look once she's all done, definitely keep us updated! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The anime series is adorable and fluffy, and I'd definitely recommend it. 💖 Yes she's also a really fashionable character, and the outfit combinations are endless! Indeed super fitting for a dollfie for sure ~ And I'd definitely keep this thread updated! Thank you so much for following 💖 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I adore her character so much and I hope I do her character justice 😭 Her costumes are so varied and I'm not sure if I am able to do them all... But maybe after I'm done with the default Marin, I may choose to make some of her cosplay alter egos~ 😅 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
baldylox Posted January 24, 2023 I loved that anime and I really love your Marin! She's beautiful! Thanks for sharing pics of her with us! Billy 1 I gave up counting the girls I own, they keep multiplying and won't stop. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hachiihoney Posted October 19, 2023 (edited) Been quietly working on looking for a suitable head, wig, skirt and accurate shoes for Marin, and finally happy with the outcome and vibe! Hoping I do her justice too. Can't wait to take her out for photos someday, but this will do for now 🩷✨️ Thank you for sharing this journey with me!

Xiongmao Posted October 19, 2023 Well done - I really want a Marin but Volks have just decided to release a Frieren instead. My Dressup Darling is a great show to watch with your dolls - it features a lot of dressing up plus there are dolls in it too! We need to finish watching season 1, but we're currently trying to finish Toradora! My Dollfie doll family December 2024 😊. Towa believes they are 34 in number.

They had an azone release of her as well as a harmonica humming one~ I've finished season 1 and i'm just holding out for season 2 to watch with my girl when it's released 🤣 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
