Oh Robin...

 
 
I really do want to make Robin Ciel but then again that would be a massiv project for me, I've already been going crazy about the differences in the manga and anime. So I really want to do more research before I start making it, so it is a no to the cosplayball.

I love having a cosplay partner or group and so when making one when I know that I don't have anyone, then I often don't see the point in making. For Robin Ciel, Teacher Sebastian, Madam Red or Viscount Druitt would be a lot more fun to have with me... That reminds me, I do have a friend who was interested in Madam Red but I know for sure that she won't be coming to the ball...

So it is still open on what I'll wear at the ball, heck I might put the Robin Ciel that I bought but I prefer to wear something I've made myself and there is plenty of options.

As for Frostbite, it was a piece of cake to get the tickets! Next week I'm going to a job/trainee interview, which is good but also scary that I don't know how much time I'll have to make my cosplay and help L on hers! I might have a week or just a weekend to help her! Plus it takes six hours to get there! That really makes it tight! So tomorrow I'm gonna go check on fabrics for us and maybe some other stuff as well... I just hope that it doesn't rain...

Halloween, cosplayball and Frostbite

How was your Halloween? What did you wear? These questions are long due for this year's event.

Mine was great! Though I didn't finish my outfit and wore Kiki instead, which was a great choice maybe I'll wear it again next year haha.


Tomorrow the tickets for Frostbite will be available so finger crossed that I can get them for me and L! Since she won't have much time to make a cosplay, we decided on a simple pair that we both like from a series she loves haha. It's Gintama's Kagura and Sougo. If we have time we might do one more from the same series. What is so great about cosplaying from Gintama? Photoshooting. These characters are so crazy and fun that many poses you can be just silly and cool, almost anything works! The photos of L's Kagura cosplay from the summer Desucon just turned out amazing!

As for the cosplayball, now I really wanna do Robin Ciel, but that would get quite expensive. but then again any massive dress that I would like to do for the ball would be expensive... And I'm not 100% sure if I can come to the event. Today I did remember that I have Alois which would work for the ball. I don't really want to reuse Rinoa or Tifa unless I can get a partner since they are such simple outfits.

Princess Zelda was also an option but long blond hair...it just doesn't work for me, only the Skyward Sword might since her face is a bit more round than in the other games. I did get inspired again by Sona when she yesterday competed in the SM competition with her Link Magic armor cosplay from Twilight Princess but I just don't know...
