Description
this was the first time i really got into doing armour with btw its her in this i just drew up, molded and laced the armour. she did all the cutting, detail work and paint.wig, shoes and the rest of the cosplay is primarily hers too.
this was taken on the rainbow crosing in oxford street 1 week before the government did a night sneak and removed it while people were sleeping so that they couldnt protest the removal.
it had been painted for the gay and lesbian festival in the most infamous place and it was bringing in alot of tourism and income to the local businesses but some politician deemed it too dangerous to keep.
so glad i insisted she go shoot rarin and all even though it was one week before Madman.

is there lots of homophobia in Australia? Because I can see no other reason to remove such a beautiful road feature!

yeah sadly our PM wont even let us vote on gay marriage and she is a woman and a redhead.. you would think she would have compassion

Huh... well that's a bummer, were the "safety reasons" due to some form of road hazard it supposedly hosted or just an excuse because homophobia?
Either way, a very cool humanized RD there in... ancient Pegasus Empire or Crystal Empire armour?

People were standing/sitting/laying on it - an active roadway - preventing traffic from moving.
Meanwhile, the government has no money, so they just throw $90,000 at something.

Ah, well then that seems like it could be addressed with a sign or something rather than getting rid of it altogether...

Hmm... well if they're not stating exactly what kind, it sounds more like an excuse than anything else.

That is a really good cosplay!
It's a shame that the dumb government had to mess everything up and remove such a cool little symbol.

i know!!!! especially as they are not marketing the event to its fullest capability. short sighted narrow minded politicians!

This is a great cosplay. Other than the rest.
Everything is in place. And the blade - new way to incorporate cutie mark than on outfit or on skin. And it's nice that you managed to take that photo on that road,looks like a rail road to Cloudsdale

Too dangerous, my ass. Politicians are complete tools. I hope they repaint it.
As for the cosplay... I don't normally comment on cosplay, but this one really stands out. That armor, and that sword... just awesome! Not to mention the amazing background!

oh i agree. it was an EXPENSIVE thing to have done in the first place andthat put up a few people's backs but the benifits were starting to really outweigh that in the area.
thankyou
