ello! welcome to Dokukinoko, aka, Poison Mushroom >:3
im not entirely sure how this "world" thing works exactly, im just following along with wut the other kiddies are doing. Might as well conform with this, because if you dont conform then you are JUST CONFORMING TO NON-CONFORMING! @_@

well, i guess since this is the intro then i shall introduce myself. Hi, im Clarissa...but i go by calamity, or any shortened version you can make out of my name, i dont mind. My first Anime was probably Sailor Moon, but at that time i didnt even know what anime was. I wasnt introduced to Manga until after i was in highschool. I went to college for a year majoring in studio art, then transferred colleges and switched my major to Art Education...i decided that sucked and after some cofusion with class schedules and a missing student advisor (missing cause i did not know who he was and couldnt find him)...i dropped out of college. A couple of months after that i was asked if i would be willing to learn to tattoo by a friend of the family. bored and jobless, my reply was "sure, why not". Thus my career in the tattoo industry. Now i work full time in a tattoo studio...and my Otaku passion is burning brighter then ever.
On my days off i usually hang out with my friends or make cute things (clothing accessories, jewelry, origami, paintings, sketches, clay figures). I tend to try a lot of different tools to make stuff, as long as its hands on. Some of my recent projects include masquerade masks and lolita mini top hats.

I need cosplay help

so i was thinking about doing a cosplay to an up-coming convention where i live, but i have no idea who i'd like to go as..(i love technical costumes) but to be frank, im short and chunky, so finding a costume to suit me is kinda hard, im usually pretty good at making my own props and stuff, so i think the challenge of making a costume would be really fun. Here are some pictures of myself...if you can think of any ideas for me please let me know...im getting a big brain cramp from thinking about it too much (and i wouldn't mind female or male characters)
