Description : )
This is probaly one of the most challenging and expensive costumes to date! I sewed it with my fantabulous sewing machine (which seems to put up with alot!.) I used a pattern for the shorts and drafted the pattern for the top by myself I ended up having to get EMS shipping because Sakura con ended up beeing a bit last minute for me. The red fabric does have lines, and the straps on the back were functional with a small zipper in the collar. The wig took a whole can of hairspray, and the headband had to stay in the wig. Im very proud of this costume and think that it is definaltly my best! (so far that is)
Zero is :
Kallen is me
Photographer is

Enjoy : )

You should have a pic with Suzaku and I don't mean KallenXSuzaku. I mean Kallen kicking Suzaku's ass for being a douche . Ahhhh that scene was glorious. Kallen-Zero is fine too .

Nope !
I made it with my sewing machine and alot of fabric. I only used a patern for the shorts, the top of the jumpsuit pattern was made by me : )

Banyan16 In reply to wolfchan0 [2009-04-16 21:49:51 +0000 UTC]

Mmmk! I can give you a few tips.
you are definatly going to want to double line it, try not to make shorts to small cause its very uncomfy. My collar had a zipper on the back that opended at both sides and the back straps were functional, this worked very well. Make sure that you put alot of velcro on the straps cause mine came undone all the time. The leg warmers stay up with double sided tape (The kind from the fabric store) The armwarmers are made of stretch material. The black lines are all bias tape (which was very convenient becuase you dont have to hem the parts that you want the black to be on. Just make sure that it is pinned pretty well before you sew.) Make sure that the red fabric is stretch fabric or the leg warmers wont work at atll. Interface the collar and boobie straps.
There : ) Just a few hints, hope I was helpful.

Haha wig shanking is an awesome part of cosplay.
This looks like a challenging cosplay to draft a pattern for or however you did it. Results are worth it
