So to differ her abit, I am using Xiao Qiao's alternative instead. So designs first. Da Qiao Done in Photoshop: Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao: For fun~ Done in Photoshop Da Qiao's fan, it's half closed. Done in Photoshop and Illustrator. Da Qiao with her new fans. Done in Photoshop I'll be tearing up old cheap chinese fans to make new ones: The fabric is a really nice purple the lightening ruins it though: Will update soon!

I've seen some Da Qiao DW6 cosplayer photo but they wear the same costume as Xiao Qiao DW6, so your cosplay will be more special ^^

The fans I got are abit large...like 35 x 60 kinda of large compared to the one in the picture so I don't know if I'll shorten them somehow or leave them as they are.

General Posts: 294 Group: Members Member #4,157 Joined: November 11, 2006	I think I'll only make 1 fan. The fan I'm using is a 35 x 60 inch fan. It's a XXL one. So I think it'll different her up if instead of two large fans, one jumbo fan. I even thought of her move set which would be completely different then Xiao's. The only other reason I thought about it was I don't want to drag XXL around Anime North with me.

Breaker of Destined Fate Posts: 590 Group: Members Member #12,299 Joined: December 30, 2007	Ah but your version will be BETTER because you made it yourself. It's more satisfying. Anyways, one quick wig change and BAM it's Xiao Qiao's alternate colors anyways! No biggie right? XD that's cool to have a jacuzzi in the room. Your mom must feel like she lives the spa life.
