A very VERY late post! Sorry guys, I guess I've been busy so now that it's finally weekend....
you'll see Ieyasu Tokugawa from Sengoku (Basara) Gakuen!
We had this large group at Tracon 2011 and was one of my favorite times I've had while cosplaying! A long time being overweight this was a time that I had gone down in weight and was pretty happy thou it was a bit embarrasing with my stomach showing but also a time that I was not ashamed to show it! Which was a great feeling of relief! Of course over the years it's been jumping up and down my weight problems but not near the heaviest point that I've been, it is still a struggle but slowly I am starting to accept and like my own body...
Go and check it out at World Cosplay! And tomorrow I'll submit another Ieyasu picture and then starts a new week! Can you guess which cosplay I'm gonna post next?
Back to Ieyasu, we did also have a photoshoot in early 2012 which I have posted about, look it up here!

Kuroshitsuji and WorldCosplay
Fabric has finally arrived! Took about three weeks, but still this is not all the fabric that me and my friend need for our Kuroshitsuji cosplays but for example the color black is almost always in stock so that's something that I didn't order... Also the lenses for Ciel has arrived! She has never worn contacts before so tommorrow I'll try to show her or more like give her some tips. Nows a good time to mention that I won't be wearing contacts, no my eyes are not blue like Alois but I'm not allowed to wear contacts...yet! Was it in february I went through eye laser surgery so I'm not allowed to wear contacts for a year, I think, but hey hurray for no more eyeglasses!!!
OH! Now is a good time to keep your eyes open on my WorldCosplay profile! I've removed the old photos and edited them so every week I'll upload a new character!
Last week was Midna from the Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, this was done in 2010 for an event called Bakacon, the bodysuit was bought and with the help of a friend we painted it three days before the con! I remember the stress that time hahaha, the head piece took a little longer getting the size right and finding good reference pictures about the details, but it was the head piece that got me doing Midna cause it was a challenge for me at that time.
This week I'll be posting Ciel Phantomhive that I did for a PC-meeting 2011ish? This one was also done rather quickly since the shirt just needed the frills added and the trousers were cut to shorts. As for the vest, made it for another cosplay which was never finished, glad had some use for it!
A friend of mine cosplayed Sebastian but sadly I don't look good in any of those pictures or it's more like the wig was uncut so it was too long in the front and just doesn't look good in the photos!!! Sorry Sebastian it has nothing to do with you, you are handsome hahaha but I must say I'm embarrassed that he has posted some of them, one today... Oh well if he thinks it looks good then I'll let it slip by...
So now you'll be getting weekly updates! Until I run out of pictures to post on WC, I'll try to tell something about the outfits and hopefully come up with enough text hahaha...

Parties's Over
After two Halloween parties it's back to studying... So what did I wear?
For the first party I was Bambi/Bambi's girlfriend/mom/whatever just something cute.
As for the second party the theme was movies so there has been one simple outfit that I have wanted to make and it is Kiki from Kiki's Delivery service! As lazy as I am, I started on the costume a couple of hours before the party so it was quite a hassle but turned up okay, still need a bit fixing...
Too bad the weather sucks right now, it's not really possible to take outside autumn pictures since it has started to snow but somedays it melts away but still daylight is short too... Guess I'll need to come up with other places were to photoshoot this cosplay.

Halloween soon and other plans
Wow it's been a while! Sorry guys, been having it real stressful and lots has happened like moving to another city and going to school. You could also say my passion for cosplay almost died but now slowly getting the strenght back together..
So there is a Halloween party coming up and the theme is movies, animated also counts, I won't reveal the costume yet but a little sneak peak and a hint which is Studio Ghibli.
Also by the looks of it, next year I'll be atleast going to Yukicon and Frostbite. I was planning on skipping on one but I got my classmate interested in cosplay so I was thinking that for her first convention Yukicon might be good for that.
One of her first plans was to make Hinata from Naruto Shippuuden, then I got thinking it would be great to cosplay from the same series but it didn't really spark for me to cosplay any character from there.. But she was liked the idea so we started listing other series and ended up with Kuroshitsuji 2 as Alois Trancy and Ciel Phantomhive. She's a bit nervous about sewing but with my guidance I think she will do just fine!
Since I moved, the fabric store here doesn't have as much variety as in Helsinki so I need to order the fabric... Plus a sneak peak at a quick make up test and wig styling which needs the be redone..

@Turku, Cosvision & Kikucon
Oh my god, Cosvision is probably my best convetion this year, it cannot be topped.
Actually I don't remember much from the first day, A few people took videos of me, but mostly I was chatting with friends catching up! I was kinda waiting when Miya would have time to photoshoot but it got late and I had already changed to normal clothes heading out to eat so we decided to shoot later.
The next day my friends were hosting the cosplay competition as Tulio and Miguel the next day, their Chell wasnt able to come so I got the honour to performe her small part on stage ;D their performance was awesome!
After my part I rushed to see my friends panel Meihenä cosplayn maailmassa, they and the audiance seemed to have lots of fun!
Me and Miya were finally able to have our photoshoot, thou very hurried, cause she had her Q&A panel, which I went to see. Afterwards I went with her, Kaname and Erika to the greenroom and got some food, and afterwards me and Miya went to her room to discus about the plans for tourguide in Helsinki for Kaname the next day. After that we were starting to head back home, thou I wished that I could have stayed a bit longer...
But my convention continued on for a third day! Or at least it felt so!
Me and Milla waited for Miya, Kaname, Erika and Sofia to arrive and starting our quick Helsinki tour which was not much... We went to the Moomin shop, walked through Esplanadi to the Market and the passed by the Cathedral on our way to the Kahvila Suomi to have lunch. Kaname was so friendly and I hope he enjoyed his time in Finland! Ah~ my heart was pounding so hard!
Then the next weekend was Kirsikankukkacon aka Kikucon. I had no plans to go there but my friend needed help so I was helping out at the Manga Café table. It was kinda nice to see so many new people interested in these kind of things, I mean this was a good convention for beginners, first-timers, which made the atmosphere filled with ease. That's why eventhough I was working all time, to see new people enjoying their first convetion brought back memories, this was a very pleasant convention!
