Sailor Moon took place at a time when anime ladies were born with legs that were roughly 3 feet long. When they entered High School, their legs grew to a size that was nearly 82% of their total height.

Prehistoric SpongeBob THIS IS HISTORICAL FACT! Through many years of selective breeding, the spider legged anime ladies of the '80s and '90s went all but extinct, eventually replaced completely by the moe ladies we have today.

It only eats through styrofoam, EVA, craft and floor matt foam is fine to be spray painted. (Those 3 versions of the foam are the same kind of foam just different names)
this tutorial is GREAT for people limited on supplies for cosplay, but i have to say that you really could have put in more effort to pleat the skirt properly

She used polyester jersey for the skirt and it’s not very easy to pleat that kind of material.
The seamstress in me cringed when you didn't pleat the skirt properly but it turned out cute nonetheless

Y’all need to stop hating. Her cosplay is cute, cartoony and it’s her deal if it starts to fall apart! I think it was pulled off really well and turned out adorable.
Holy crap! The supplies almost cost $200! "DIY for the rich" is more like it. EDIT: After 4 years, my opinion has slightly changed; if it's DIY, I expect it to be as inclusive as possible no matter the income. But to be honest, I originally made this comment by really nitpicking things. Despite some stuff like proper fabric scissors and a sewing machine making this a lot easier, they aren't really necessary for doing this build. If I were to recalculate the absolutely necessary material, it would probably be closer to $100 max if you didn't have some stuff they already had. I still think it's a bit much, but someone doesn't have to go 100% step by step, this video is just for ideas on making the costume. I even feel sad since they've stopped doing DIY Costume Squad and Homemade How-To. I can't help but feel some sort of guilt for criticizing them when they were just trying to give some ideas to start on costume crafting. I miss them, and I took them for granted.

She says at the end it was about $80, with $30 of that being just the wig. Not even close to 200

Deina Venckūnaité Surprisingly, the sewing machine only costs $20. You can add up the stuff yourself if you want. I grabbed the prices from google. And yeah, cardboard. I reinforced it with more cardboard in order to last much longer. Also had other supplies, but they were mostly old plastic material such as discarded plastic cookie trays and a soda bottle. The money went mostly to hot glue sticks and paint.

try getting hot glue out of a wig without damaging it... try taking care of a wig full of hot glue... good luck... it won't happen :,D
Ok as a veteran to cosplay I have some tips and light suggestions. When doing boots you are usually better off making boot covers than just spray painting them. I have personally struggled pulling boots off of friends who spray painted them, and plus the paint tends to crack and flake everywhere. The other thing is hot glue isn't really the best substitute for actually sewing. It may be fast, but judges at costume contest usually look for that and it is a pretty poor construction choice. I'm not saying that hot glue is bad, just it doesn't do very well making a whole garment out of it. Hope this helps anyone looking to start cosplaying!
Would love to see a DIY tuxedo mask to go with the sailor moon. Your tutorial seems very easy to follow.
For those of you who might be new to cosplay and prefer spraying their shoes vs painting them, I would recommend Design Master Floral Spray Paint for leather or vinyl boots! It's long lasting, vibrant and won't crack/peel when wearing - Unlike normal sprays & paints. I used this method for my Sailor Saturn boots and they're still going strong! Of course, this is my personal preference.. Angelus Acrylic Leather Paint comes highly recommended, as well!
Even though I do not agree with the hot glue for some of the fabric pieces... I still think regardless this was a great tutorial. I think everyone bitching could just simply sew it instead. I really liked the idea and how you simplified it with everything you did.
Thanks alot. I'm going to use this video to help me create my Sailor Jupiter Costume
Even though I used thread and a sewing machine instead of hot glue this tutorial was helpfull to make my own Sailor Saturn costume. I only have problems with the boots. Still the tutorial is really good and you explain it step by step. Good job. ;)
Look guys, not everyone knows how to sew. If you're bitching about hot glue, then maybe just use industrial strength fabric glue. I did for some of the pieces. I also sewed a lot more of them than she did, but still...she's trying to show people of ALL skill levels what to do. She already said in the video that you could sew some of the pieces that she chose not to. As far as gluing the pieces on to the wig? Yeah, I agree. I almost lost it. I put hair clips on the backs of mine so that they can be taken out and the wig can be serviced. Either way, it was a good and simple tutorial.
This whole show is about showing that cosplay is more accessible than you would think, I think this is a great tutorial for people who are just starting out making their own cosplay's it's not 100% accurate but it is recognizingable and if they're happy with it then that's all that matters. As long as they're not trying to compete with it it's fine
I wish i could show you what i made for my daughters thanks to this tutorial. The best one i found and easy to follow.
85% of comment: people complaining about how she's using hot glue on some stuff instead of sewing. If you guys are whining that much about it, then please retreat to your Tumblr blogs to rant about it. No need to do it here.
This tutorial helped me a lot with a Sailor Venus cosplay! Love it 🧡🧡🧡
Claire! My daughter is entranced with you and your sewing skills. She's 3.5 and we're trying to instill craft skills in her and she has watched your Sailor Moon video maybe 15 times We just started Princess Tutu since she is doing ballet class - could you manage a ballet related episode? Even Princess Tutu or some Hayao Miyazaki stuff (Nausicaa?) would be inspiring for her!

If you want your daughter to have good craft skills, please don't encourage her to hot glue fabric/outfits together. Teach her to sew.
this video showed up on my timeline after a couple of years since i last watch it lol, bring back memories
Everybody I know around her age ( my brother etc. ) says sailor moon was a show they watched when they were a kid. Like, was there only one channel “back then??” KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!!!!
I think the folded cloth look of the skirt is pretty important to her original design. Otherwise, this is pretty cool.
yay! it looks awesome guys :) i'd love to see some steven universe costumes; garnet, pearl and amethyst deserve some cosplay
Really impressed with how the arm sleeves/rolls came out. The costume looks great!
U should take it to comic-con 😜
For all the people mad about hot glueing. This tutourial is actually really good for first timers or on the cheap. You can always replace the glueing with actual sewing if you know how to do it. And put pins in the back of the hair jewels if you don't want to glue it to the wig. No point being all whiney because she did it another way.
I was hoping to see the rest of the squad dressed up as scouts already. Thanks for the video on one of the original cosplay icons.

Can you guys start providing links to where you get the wigs for future videos? With both the LiLu cosplay and now this Sailor Moon cosplay, you've just been like "Oh yeah, I got this super awesome and super cheap wig at a secret place! Good luck finding it!" That Sailor Moon wig looks amazing for $30, but I'm totally bummed that no link was provided to where you got it

That's actually really amazing It's pretty cheap but it still looks amazing!
That costume looks so awesome!
Wow this came out great, good job.
this is so great! im in love!
Well done. Gonna have to check out some of the other DIY Costume Squad videos.
Amazing! Great tips for making this great costume, thank you! 🌙
Such a fun show, you guys are so creative. I'd love to see a Xenomorph costume!
Me: eats that weird tasting cotton candy The guy who just sold me a bag of poly-fil: ...
wow that was incredible attention to detail
Claire, amazing costume !!!!!
This was super easy to make and cheap for me because my mom is a clothes designer so I have fabric everywhere! And I made one and I'm super happy except I sewed all of it and only used about used 2 dots of hot glue
This helped so much! I am going to attempt this for a Sailor Moon collab ❤🌙 I can't wait!🎉
Why is everyone so salty. Her costume is amazing for a DIY one! Why can't we just appreciate the fact that she put in her effort to make that in a day 🙄
So pretty! Good job
The costume looks great to me :) Good job. I would love to see you make Asuna from Sword Art Online and Hatsune Miku!
Great video only thing i would recommend is using leather paint instead of spray paint for the shoes as spray paint can crack as it is not as flexible and leather paint isnt expensive.

anime characters are usually unrealistic when it comes to skirt length so I feel this is an incredible build
i love it plss make more
I love it!
Lord of the rings related episode would be my personal favourite ;) Especially that hat from the Hobbit movies ;)
I think it's really good!
Love your videos Claire max
Late, but props to them for not making the front bow ridiculously massive. I know it's accurate, but I always thought on other cosplayers it looks weird and too huge. I don't cosplay (too broke for cons, no one to go with) but I do admire it. It's a dream of mine to dress up as Sailor Moon or Jupiter, but I'd love to lose weight first.
this is the best tutorial. so complete and simple
Awesome!!
i loved
Perfect!!!!
Amazing great tutorial guys
Oh boy I love it! I hope more D.I.Y. anime costumes pop-up! Also looking forwars for the predator one! I'm a bit surprise they didn't ride along with Pokémon Go! sucess and made a Ash Ketchum or Red one LOL
MAD MAX! either Mel Gibson or Tom Hardy. I know it will be probably too easy, but you guys shroud make those once in a while!
nice job on the sailor moon costume
I want to work in your studio! 😩❤️ I loved the entire costume. Only thing I would’ve done instead was used red bows from Christmas and brown paper bags from the grocery store 💁🏾♀️
Hola.Espectacular .me encanto
I LOVE SAILOR MOON
I gave a like just because it is sailor moon and you chose my other favorite scouts Jupiter and Venus.
awesome cosplay 👍👍👍
man I wish I could sew in a straight line hahahhaha this is great
That was awesome
OMG YOUR SO AWESOMLY GOOD
13:14 Woman: Cosplays as Usagi. Me: Please, marry me!

Sailor moon is definitely one the best starter cosplays
you look toats like sailor moon! my personal favorite is sailor mars!
holy shit i just realized this is the same person I follow on twitter. This was her before she put on a ton of muscle. That is quite the difference!
As far as helping amateur cosplayers figure out a base for this outfit, this is fantastic. I'd have noooo idea how to start off with the shoulder and glove pads, so this is vert helpful. As for the details? Yeah, they're wrong, but this was supposed to be a newbie diy anyway, so it works. If you're struggling with the gems, try resin. There are loads of great channels dedicated to resin crafting, so give that a try! And as for the skirt? Why not sparkles AND pleats? I mean, have ya'll SEEN the Sera Myu musicals??? All that stuff's glittery OFF THE WAZOOOO! That was even approved by the original creator herself! So yeah, sparkles rule :P

I'm making a chibiusa cosplay right now and yeah, this about describes it. All hands made, resin gems, layers on layers of sparkly translucent fabrics, even a color shifting corset. This is OK for beginners but it's all very cheaply done and will not last, and really doesn't capture the sailor moon aesthetic
You look real good!!!!!
When using glue on stretch fabric place over a form before applying. The glue stiffens the material and prevents it from stretching in the area applied.
Amazing
Hello CineFix/DIY Costume Squad
Honestly this will help XD
My friend and I are going to cosplay as Sailor Venus (me) and Sailor Jupiter (her) I was crying when I heard you guys say that. Good job on the costume anyway
wow I like♥
Love sailor❤❤❤❤❤✌😍# so good
It looks great! My only problem is that I can buy a nice quality cosplay for $49. Normally when I make my cosplays it is because I am trying to save money.
Hey CineFix, so basically I grew up playing and watching Silent Hill, and this year for Halloween I wanted to make a famous character in the game, Pyramid Head! So what I'm saying is to try are make Pyramid Head's Mask or whatever it is, and also make the robe, it doesn't seem hard but the details on the helmet its self are a lot harder than you think, you gotta make it look brownish rusted kinda look, and paint blood on the robe and everything, so if you guys can do diy to make Pyramid Head before Halloween that would be amazing! Thanks Sincerely, Phoenix Draws
i missed this :D
You made that look so easy
Wow 😍
Wow it looks so prettt
SailorMoon, Power, Makeup!

I died a little inside when she used so much hotglue...
