There's a little over a week left until Anime Matsuri 2013! 
I decided that I wanted a duel disk for my Bakura cosplay and I couldn't afford to buy one online, so I made one! Out of cardboard and paper plates. XD
I spent around eight hours total (yesterday and today) putting this together. I built the main shapes with cardboard and covered them in duct tape just to keep a consistent texture, then I painted several layers of white acrylic paint as a sort of base coat, then I painted the color on it and printed the text and card slots, gluing them on. Finally, I painted some clear acrylic polymer to seal everything in. It's still drying, now. c: I'm so excited! There's an elastic strap underneath it for wearing. c:
It's not the greatest homemade cosplay prop, but I've never done anything like this before. I think it's great! I can't wait!
I even get to test out the costume at school next week for Kid Day.
ANYwho~ That's all. c:
