Description
What an intense labor of love and frustration this damned costume is. But dear god is it my favorite of anything I've ever done.

The good
-In my opinion, it's incredibly accurate:
There's white tubing along the bottom seam, zipper seams, and side seams.
The red lining in the collar of the white jacket has the "quilting" marks.
I cut the shuriken-like zipper pull out of metal and polished that sucker down to 600
The pants have the little silver tabs on them.
Painting checkers oh god it hurtsss!
-The wigggg! It came out so much better than I thought. I've never styled something like that before but it worked!
-I dyed my own eyebrows to match the color of the wig, whaaat.
-The black shirt's collar is also lined properly like crazy.
-The white jacket has interfacing and lining inside.

The bad
-Heheh, the checks on the back around the sleeves aren't painted on because I was doing this costume absolutely down to the wire. And some other checks are kinda sloppy here and there unfortunately.
-The pants do not flare out enough at all.
-While we're in that area, shoes for the lose. ~Mizuenzeru helped make the shoes I had worn the first day, but since it was such a rush job they ended up giving me a blister after a few hours. So here I am, in my comfy airwalks until I can really dedicate some time to making the real deals.
-Whoops, y halo thar eyebrow ring.
-Oh hay, say halo 2 my friend, natural hair! He's sticking out from under my wig!

But nonetheless, I loved loved this costume. And that if why, of course, I'll be fixing this sucker up in time for Otakon. I'll also have a keyblade in hand. It's going to be sweet.

And check out 's Axel costume. Not that she needs the views, but she's my Axel, so I love her regardless.

Also, keep an eye out. We'll be posting pictures from our mini photoshoot that we took inside the con. Or what I'd like to call, "Lucky my girlfriend knows someone with a Digital Rebel."
