This week on WorldCosplay, Zone-00 continues with the witch of the North, Ruiko!
It was a cozy cosplay in winter, that I really liked! The cape was pretty heavy... I've actually thrown it away because I never used it again but now I really regret it... So I might make it again but then again the character is a little girl and that doesn't really fit me... Soon it's been two years since I made this cosplay for Frostbite 2013, how time flies!
Well Frostbite 2015 is coming fast... ARGH I just remembered that I forgot to buy the buttons for the vest... But the jacket is almost done!!!

WC Week Bishamon
Tomorrow on WorldCosplay, I'll start posting pictures of my Bishamon cosplay from Zone-00!
In this blog there are links to older blogposts but I suggest to read this one before reading the older ones.
It was a disaster hahaha, I don't remember much when I was sewing it but I do remember making the shoes and the pearls on the glasses. But the disaster was at the convention, it was the first time I was binding my chest with sports tape and that was a big mistake... My skin didn't like it all and it left pretty ugly scars and it took a while to heal as well. But I did have fun with our group Benio cosplayer, sadly our Benten was cosplaying the next day when I had to leave.
Now a bit of Frostbite progress... Alois pants are done, as well as Ciel's. My vest only needs buttons and the stripes, so the biggest parts that need to be done are the jacket and shoes. But I'm happy with the progress so far. My friend Ciel is also starting to look good!

WC Week Ventus
More like Ventus Keyblade Armor from Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep.
I've also made his normal outfit back in 2010 but sadly no good pictures, this is one that I have to remake! I love him as much as I love Roxas! So it goes without saying that I'd cosplay him. Aqua is also one that I'd like to make but my height suits better for Ven...
Back to the armor, it was something I planned for a long time, checking out the armor pieces throughtly, figuring out how it worked. It took also a while making it and after this cosplay I haven't made many cosplays cause I felt like I got a burn out from it. But I am pretty proud of it, the proportion was very good, the coloring could have been better but I rushed it for a competition.

I'm back! WC Week Riku
Finally back home and it feels like I'm more exausted than energized...
The cosplayball went well! Got some pictures taken and had fun goofing around mostly around the photostudio as Tifa Lockheart!
And as for WorldCosplay, Riku from Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance version! Boy this one has lots to tell but has already been told aka click on the label Riku and you'll find all the old blog posts that I've written, in which you'll find lots of yummy pictures~, but I'll sum it up in this post just in case... I made it for a competition and it's one of the cosplays that I feel pretty good about but it doesn't really suit me, I knew it wouldn't but I just wanted to make it so badly! Later that year the awesome Xen took some awsome pictures! Which I believe are the best pictures ever taken on any of my cosplays!
And tomorrow I need to hurry up with my other cosplays for Desucon Frostbite! I ordered some new wigs and hope that they'll arrive in time...

Tomorrow Cosplayball!?
What? No WorldCosplay pictures this week? Nope sorry guys! I'll be leaving tomorrow for two weeks, staying a few days at my friend's place in Helsinki then spending Christmas with my family and then a week in Estonia for the New Year! But you can expect new pictures to show up on the fifth of January!
Anyways! Last year PKSC organized a cosplayball and I cosplayed as Rinoa plus Seibai as my lovely hubby Squall, SQUEE! They are also organizing it this year and it is tomorrow!!! Click here for last year's post!
Last year Rinoa was made pretty much on the day of the dance party which made it a little uncomfortable to wear since it could have been done a lot better. Well this year I pretty much have it all done, except yesterday I screwed up my dress!!! So now I have to redo it! Luckily it is quite a simple dress and hope I won't make the same mistake again... But the reason I am a bit panicking is because I do have a lot of other things to do! Last year I was able to make it in the nick of time, partly because I lived 20 minutes by tram from the place but now that I've moved it takes four hours by train to get to the city and I'll be gone for two weeks so I have to clean and do a lot of other stuff! So I need to get everything done in time!
But this year's dress is gonna be Tifa Lockheart Wall Market version!
Now for the big question: What color is Tifa's dress? It's a simple question, at first I thought it was purple but looking at other cosplayers they always have blue dresses!? So I started wondering, Cloud has a purple dress so why would Tifa also have one in purple? Just another shade of purple? Maybe it's different color in the US version or PC version? For the anwser I decided to use Photoshop as my guide, I took a couple of screenshots from youtube videos of the scene both PS1 version and PC, which were pretty much the same color. It's kinda deja vu problem, Kiki's dress!!! A color between blue and purple!!! After zooming in and using the eyedrop tool I'm still confused about the color, but it is definitely blue but with a hint of purple. In the end this color is a pain in the ass to find in a fabric store... And so my dress will be blue also since the selection of fabrics sucks here... I'll just have to work with it!
