I decided to put rikku aside for now and work on something a little less daunting.
Ninja! Since I am not the biggest fan of Naruto ( I actually do not care for it all except for some characters like Hinata) I decided to do an original cosplay. SEXY NINJA!
I have yet to figure out the top so please disregard the t-shirt. I also need to clean my mirror apparently so please ignore that as well. Anyways, I bought the scarf and arm warmers at Hot Topic and I bought the head band at Suncoast. What do you guys think? I still need to buy a lot of red satin for a sash around my neck. The satin will be tied around and the ends draping down in back. I plan to use the left over satin for accents throughout the costume. So besides buying the satin, I also need to purchase fishnet footless tights that have the same design as the arm warmers. Shoes is a different story altogether. Here is the picture.
This is just a quick little update...
Well, I have all the pieces to my female Ranma costume, but I wasn't able to showcase it this weekend. My boyfriend didn't get his wig in in time, and I don't want to debut the costume without him. We went to A2F (Arkansas Anime Festival) IV this weekend. Again, I went as Sasori, and I carried my Deidara plushie around. Daku went as Kakuzu (he also lost his Deidara wig and headband). I promise I'll dress up in the Ranma costume soon and have Celeste (my roommate) take pictures for you guys! Gomenasai!

Well, I was asked to be a guest poster on this world, so I'll share my first cosplay project.
My first cosplay project was Akasuna no Sasori, of "Naruto Shippuden" fame. It actually wasn't very complicated. My boyfriend ordered the Akatsuki cloak from Ebay. I couldn't find a cheap Gaara or Sasori wig, so I went to my local costume shop and found a Columbia wig, from the movie Rocky Horror Picture Show. For pants, I just wore plain black capris. I couldn't find a way to make the sandals, so I simply wore black flipflops. Seeing as I'm a girl, I had to wear a shirt under my cloak. Looking back, I wish I'd made a couple of small puppets to have carried around. Well, here are some pictures!
DDR's kind of hard in that cloak...
I was even able to do the black cowl! However, that one only works because it's a close-up. I used a black Halloween cape...
For my next project, I'm working on a female Ranma Soutome ("Ranma 1/2) costume. I'll be wearing it at A2F IV, which is around the end of April. My hair is naturally read, and I usually wear it in the pigtail, so I have the hair down. I also have the pants and shoes. I have the fabric and pattern for the shirt, I just need to get it to a seamstress.
If any of you Otakuites plan on coming to A2F IV, PM me, and we'll see about meeting up. I'd love to meet some of you!
