Kirin Armor (Monster Hunter) @ Anime USA 2009

Photo credit: ACP, Anna Fischer

Monster Hunter is LOVE.
Kirin armor is CUTE.
UNICORNS. *w*

I liked playing with the different fabrics and textures on this costume. The silver bits are snakeskin print leather. Orange is upholstery velvet. Blue is snakeskin print spandex. And fur~! I love fur. I used a minky fur for most of mine because I already had some in my stash. :)

I hurriedly made a pseudo greatsword fully intending on fixing it to be accurate but never got around to it. ^^;; I don't really use great swords though so I think I'll make the sword and shield set that I actually have in game.

Mio Akiyama - Don't Say Lazy vers. (K-ON!) @ AMA 2009


photo credit: forgot

I got dragged into moe-land. I was so hooked... like on a bad kdrama.

Never falling into a moe-trap again!

I think I chose a fabric too heavy for the dress. It's the first dress I fully lined so the construction is really nice. Just wish I chose a lighter fabric!

Worn again for Katsucon 2010.

Sami/Domino (Advance Wars) @ AMA 2009

Another easy/closet costume!

Sami's my favorite CO. So spunky! And her mechs are totally usable for a "Zerg" rush.

I managed to finangle Neoqueenhoneybee to cosplay AW with me for Katsucon 2010. ♥

Kya/Kaya (Avatar: The Last Airbender) @ Katsucon 2009


photo credit: Spooky Electric

Neoqueenhoneybee and I were debating on who to cosplay from this show. Eventually, we decided on the mothers Kya & Ursa! We had a blast every time someone called us Katara and Azula.

A fairly simple costume. I bought the necklace so the rest was really easy peasy.

Also very comfortable and soft.

I ran out of the nice fur so I had to make do with the craft fur from Joann's. Still I think it turned out quite nicely.

Han-lolita @ Katsucon 2009

The remake of the first han-lolita concept. This looks a bit better than my first attempt.
