Taichi Yagami - Shirt from Digimon Adventure Tri

I could of course have found an orange shirt to modify, but where's the fun in that? When I made Ryouga's shirt from Ranma 1/2, I referenced a burda pattern for a collared shirt (replacing the collar with something totally different). This time, I'd follow pretty much the entire pattern, with only a slight variation in the pocket style. Also making it a short-sleeved version and adding the little button loops that's on Tai's version.

This shirt was a lot of fun to make and I'm really happy with the result. I free-handed the "17" on the sleeve. Not bad for my first attempt with satin stiches, but probably the only part of the shirt that's a little sloppy.

For the 15th Anniversary, Bandi released an "official" verion of Taichi's Googles from Adventure 01. I may have paid a little premium to import them, but this will be the 3rd cosplay that can use them (and Daisuke's outfit from Adventure 02 will be the 4th), so at least I'm getting good use out of them!

The white undershirt is pretty plain, so that's just store-bought, as is the pair of jeans I hemed to match the length.

Xiaolang Li's Rashinban Board

I got a chance to play with the new Universal laser printers at TechShop. My next Cosplay is going to be Xiaolang Li from Cardcaptor Sakura, so I wanted to make his Rashinban board.

Daisuke Motomiya - Jacket from Digimon Adventure 02

So Bandai released the official version of Taichi's Googles from Digimon Adventure 01 and I had to have them. I've done Tai's outfit from 01 as well as the school jacket and orange shirt from Tri. Of course, at the start of Adventure 02, Tai gives his googles to Daisuke after his are broken. Since I already had the googles, that means my next outfit needed to be Daisuke/Davis from Adventure 02!

Taichi Yagami - Jacket from Digimon Adventure Tri

I've been so exicted for the 15th Anniversary of Digimon Adventure and to see the original digi-destined team in HD.

I had recently finished my cosplay of Taichi from season 1. Once promotional images started to be released I knew wanted to make a go at the older version of Taichi as well. I had never made a jacket before, so this would be a new challenge.
