I think I'm ready...
Apr. 1st, 2010 02:20 amOff to Anime Boston in the morning! I haven’t been to a con since NYAF and haven’t cosplayed since Halloween so it should be a fun weekend. Not doing any contests but I am in cosplay chess again (should be amusing XD) and doing my seam finishes workshop (Friday at noon in 313!).
I had wanted to bring my Tamaki ballgown but decided I was too lazy to gather everything and dismantle the hoopskirt for travel after preparing everything else so that’s staying home. But to make up for it, I have two new costumes to debut this con, which hasn’t happened since like 2005! o_o; One is Count D’s artbook kimono, of course. And the other is a certain redhead that I’ve been meaning to cosplay for a long time! So, here’s what my costume schedule looks like:
Friday
Yoko in the morning/early afternoon
Count D’s artboook kimono in the late afternoon/evening
Saturday
Ekaterina in the morning/early afternoon
Count D’s artbook kimono again for a bit to do a photoshoot with
thedreamerworld
Count D’s tailcoat outfit for evening
Sunday
? for chess (come watch to find out what!)
And here’s a little teaser for this weekend…

April Fool’s! I’m actually cosplaying Youko from The Twelve Kingdoms. I thought it was kind of funny how whenever I mentioned to friends in person that I was working on a Youko costume, they would always think of Yoko from Gurren Lagann since the names sound similar when prounouced. :-P She is also a redhead though. The lighting in my sewing room made the wig come out much more orangey; it’s the same wig that I wore with my Daphne costume and this costume was what it was really intended for.
I sort of wanted to add something to that lavender panel in the front but I never did get around to deciding on what since I was so busy with the D kimono. Oh, well. I guess I’ll go back and add to it later on.
