OH HEY I don't mean to totally jump in and hijack this thread BUT I believe I have something you seek

Here's some more photos (yes I'm hiding my face because I can ONLY IMAGINE what would happen if anyone from my professional life somehow found out that not only do I dress up as video game characters, BUT I DRESS UP AS THE VIDEO GAME CHARACTERS WHO I ALSO WRITE GAY PORN ABOUT)



Another one of Edgar



A LOCKE ACTION SHOT with a Jayne from Firefly.



Annnnd a close-up of me and all my nerdy pins on my nerdy 3-day pass lanyard. AND BEER, OF COURSE, BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY I TREASURE-HUNTED IT FROM THE COLD BEVERAGE FRIDGE AT THE CON CAFETERIA

Turks Drunk At A Bar.

OMG, THIS. Please find photos of that PLEASE that's awesome.

notraffic was showing me some other photos of you guys' costumes that you sent her (or someone sent her? katmillia? I don't even know, my fandom world has suddenly exploded exponentially in like the past few days) and you all looked awesome too!!!! Like seriously, I'm jealous of the fact that you guys got like, pro-looking photos WITH AN FFVI GROUP. There were like, no FFVI people at Comic Con (and not many FF people at ALL unless you count a bevy of UNFORTUNATE RENOS). We didn't even think to check, until like, the con was over, to see if anyone posted on any forums about an FF group photo or anything.

And THANK YOU about the jacket! I also have a picture of the back--



I was actually kind of proud of this, getting that fucking purple thing on took a lot of crazy double-sided iron-on stuff and like, careful cutting of silk scarves and things. The jacket itself was like, $12.00 at Rainbow. BARGAIN

YOU KNOW-- I'M STARTING TO GET THERE TOO (and I'm also almost 30)

I'm sure eventually I'll be putting my fandom self on blast all over the place. OH WELL!

WHAT

RENO/RYDIA PORN? WHERE

OMG that Rydia costume is amazing. Did you make the whole thing??! Katy's Reno is really cool-- was she doing a steampunk version or something? Either way I like the take on it. I'm guessing this con is in Ohio... when/where?! notraffic and I are searching for MOAR CONZ to plan attending in the future. AND. There is a bar at this con?! There was no bar at comic con... just like, loose beers in the cafeteria. But a BAR at a con-- that's just like. Heaven. of all types for me

UM I ALMOST CHOKED ON MY TEA WITH LAUGHTER IN RESPONSE TO MR. BUNANSA'S EXPLOIT WITH CITRUS FRUIT

I'M GONNA JUMP INTO THIS CONVERSATION TOO (hey this is safety_caesars from LJ; I pretty much never use DW but apparently this is where the party's at right now)

YOUR COSTUMES ARE FRIGGEN AWESOME!! And I seriously LOL'ed really hard at the mouthface in the last one XDD

Uhhhh I just wanted to say HEY to you both and I especially love Edgar's armor and Locke's jacket there, and is that a tattoo on your arm? :D

OH HEY welcome to the comment party! I don't use my DW either... I have this account for commenting and whatnot. THANKS for your comments on the costumes!!! I was getting kind of worried because for a while I honestly thought that costume was just not gonna happen, but then it like... seriously flew together at the last minute (thanks to the dollar store. Seriously. Dare I say that LOCKE FOUND MANY TREASURES THERE).

Yes it is a tattoo... it looks really weird in these photos because of the way it's cut off, but yeah. It takes up most of my upper arm. I can't wait to get another, actually XD

Christ. Here I come back to post some SRS FANDOM BIZNIZ shit about Gundam Wing and FFIV and suddenly DER R POASTS EVERYWERE LULZ.

Okay, so for now, I'll just um, address the costume question. ^_^

Really glad you all liked it. Edgar's situation as sort of a dollar store spending spree. Well, I got some children-size hockey gear, and then sewed a bunch of crap onto it basically. The entire thing is made of a few placemats, a bathmat, and curtains. I had a really fun time trying to sew fringe to that blue shit...but the armor was hardcore. However, I personally thought the blue stuff looked cool. But that's basically what it is--a blue plastic bath mat (wow, I'm making myself sound really cool) sewed over hockey gear, which has blue fabric sewed over it to cover the annoying logo bits. The pink bits are place mat-things, the sparkly shit is like, earrings I took apart or something and sewed on, and the shoulder bits with the fabric are...fabric, that I sewed on. I sewed on a lot of shit. So that's what it was! :) Glad you liked it. Some lady at the third booth in at anime Artist's Alley was like, "IS THAT DAMASK? I LOVE YOUR DAMASK," not knowing who I was supposed to be...yet that quote was probably my favorite part of the con, except for the doujinshi girl telling me that Rufus/Tseng was "the way to go." FTW. But either way, it was fun, and as [personal profile] deadcellredux mentioned, we're totally going back next year. ^_^

I will totally get back to the SRS GW/FFIV TALKZ SOON...when my brain isn't spliced into like, 50 pieces. (Generally, THIS IS WHAT FRIDAY AND SATURDAY ARE FOR IN MY WORLD--the days I'm off.)

Anyway, I also love creative crafting!! I'm shit at sewing, but what I can do is make stuff if you give me materials. I actually have become really fond of making costumes, and a few times in the last couple years I've made some Halloween costumes that turned out surprisingly well. And it's fun, especially when the final product doesn't COMPLETELY suck balls. There were tons of things I could've improved on obviously, but damn, I WAS EDGAR FUCKING FIGARO FOR LIKE, THREE DAYS OKAY YEAH. Anyway, hah, next year we'll definitely go as something else. I honestly am really quite fond of the drag!Cloud and Honeybee Inn hookers in hornet costumes idea that [personal profile] deadcellredux's boyfriend came up with. WE'LL SEE. ^_^ I'm sure you will, BUT PLEASE POST TONSSS OF YOUR GUNDAM WING COSPLAY PICS. OMG.
