Yes but as you can see my bf who play Anakin is in the shot, also another person dressed as a Star Wars character. I wasn't refering to the Tardis. I also don't appreciate being called a retard. I'm British, of course I bloody know its also Doctor Who... Haven't you got anything better to do?

I truly admire your Trinity.
I'm only wondering what trick you've done to your hair. Looking your pics from the past four years, it seems you have a long natural hair. So this time, have you just tied it into a tight bun or cheated some other way – what is your secret? ^^
*sigh* As good cosplayers as you are rare. Your Padmé and Trinity and Lara Croft all are so accurate and marvellous and... Just wow. Hope you'll keep doing all the butt-kicking female characters.

Awwe thank you for the compliments! I really am just a perfectionist. I won't do a costume unless I can do it right. I'm also part of the UK Garrison and their standards are high, a costume won't be cleared for use until it is as acurate as it can get.I also get paid work from companies like Manga and Ubisoft to be official characters for them.
I do have long hair, I actually found that when I had the Trinity haircut a few years ago my hair was too thick. It was a nightmare to keep in place, so yes, I do use a bun and am careful to only have front shots of the costume taken at events.
Have you done many costumes?

I see. :> Never heard of the UK Garrison before, but I just checked the website. Impressive. And being a perfectionist is just good with things like this. At least there won't be any purists whining to you. And getting paid for being awesome seems a good deal. ^^
Every time I get caught into a series, I can't help wondering how the costumes would look in real life if it's animated, or how they could be done if it's live-action. Doodling and drawing (I swear I've improved after I started not-updating my gallery) the character concepts so that I soon know their design by heart... Sadly, I have done no proper costumes, still enhancing my sewing skills, but I wish I'll someday get done an idea I've never seen anyone do.
Cons are rare in this part of the world, and they're mostly about anime/manga scene, which is kind of sad. So I've never even been to a con. This year, I really should attend the one convention where all the RPG people go, to see how the basic geek culture looks IRL. But it's real good a pastime to sit back by your computer and see tremendous cosplay shots from all the other places, too.
This became the usual rant about me, me, and me. So yeah, it'd be nice to get to know as talented a person as you... Do you sew your things from the beginning? How does your process go when you start making a costume? I'd really love to know basically everything.

Lol wow... Yeah, the anime scene is full of really silly kids most of the time huh? Right, well, I don't do much sewing myself. I find the fabrics, plan the costume, dye the fabric, search for items I can alter... It really depends on if you can find things to alter (sometimes even in a charity shop!), I find e-bay is great for that stuff. If its complicated sewing I have a seamstress make it for me. I provide them with all the info and the fabric then they can make it for me. I don't trust myself to make stuff like that. I do love dying stuff, dressing wigs, building weapons and working with special effects make-up. You should come to the UK for a con sometime! We might be planning to run off to the US to go to Dragon Con. Yeah, the UK has some good cons but the US ones rule and they have better guests most of the time. Are you on facebook? Maybe we can add each other, I have more pics on there
