Description Firstly, I must apologies to all the ladies out there that it is not my smexy hubby in this costume, just me and my attempt at crossplay.

Now this costume was interesting to wear, what with the bare chest and all.
Damn it Chrono, why to you have to have your chest exposed!

Well one sports bra, a home made compression shirt and a flesh toned top later I kinda got the right effect.
Thought that was really the easy part, and I could breath just fine.
However, the things I could not do well was walk through crowded hallways, sit or kneel (can you say tight pants?) or do anything that involved using my fingers like answer my phone, text message, eat or go the bathroom.
I felt like a very helpless demon.

But that said, I would wear it all over again in a second That's how much I love you Chrono!

There are few new things added since you saw this costume last.
I made new wings (because I sold the last pair) I got a new wig and made the arm armor a bit smaller and made new boot covers.

Oh, and I won a judges choice award in the cosplay contest! That totally made it even more worth it

That's an amazing cosplay! Well Done! It's as if I'm really staring at Chrno! Do you mind telling me where you got the wig from? Because I kind find a good enough one D: And how on earth did you make the arm guard? O: This is talent!

Oh wow this is really good!
I have a question, you see I'm trying to be a demon for Halloween, and I don't know how I'll make the ears.
Was just wondering how you made yours?

I made the ears out of Crayola model magic and stuck them on the back of my own ears with spirit gum.

I see you play boys. Do boys play girls at these things. Are any of them good at it?

nolwen In reply to Doubledub [2008-04-05 15:40:49 +0000 UTC]

Yes, and yes. The boy crossplayers I saw were really well done. Sometimes better then the girls crossplaying as guys

This is Vegas. I've seen a few dudes go to a lot of trouble to look like girls. But Girl anime characters has gotta be challenging.

Omg I totally saw you at the cosplay contest! But it took like... 3 hours 'til I thought, "Hey, that was a really cool Chrono. Wait, doesn't Nolwen have a costume like that? " lol so I wasn't sure. GJ!

nolwen In reply to tompkinsxx [2008-04-08 01:16:01 +0000 UTC]

Haha, that's funny.
Well, my friend had a double take when I walked on stage because she thought I was a guy. So I guess I did a pretty good job
I always love it when people don't recognize me

GAAAAAAAAH!!! *squee!* Chrono is so pretty! T^T

And props to you for dealing with the whole "Girl cosplaying as a bare chested man" issue! That was handled with exceptional finesse, as per usual! -^____^- Great work, I really am in love with this costume. :3

Thanks! maybe someday I'll be brave enough to just tape everything aside and have a real bare chest O_o
Not likely though

chronocrusader5 In reply to nolwen [2008-04-08 20:07:25 +0000 UTC]

Sounds painful! XD Plus, you'd still have a really strange lack of chest- male, female or otherwise. ^^'

Very cool. I know I'm working on a couple cosplay outfits myself. One easy.. one not so much so.. I think I'll have an easier time making a more traditional kimono and screen painting the outer layers. Most of it's solid colors, but the parts that aren't aren't the kinds of patterns you find in a store.

Hexe-Cobalt [2008-04-03 19:40:20 +0000 UTC]

Haha, great costume, though I can imagine the trouble with the bare chest. Then again, would you REALLY want him to cover it up, eh? I know I wouldn't XD Heh. Anyway, that's got some great accessories there! I'd really like a better look at the thing as a whole though....

and trouble with the nails? Were they stick on? That sucks. See, my solution to all that is to simply grow mine out a few weeks before hand and then file them to points and...voila! Not that i've ever tried that, but I'm sure it would work....my nails can certainly get long enough

nolwen In reply to Hexe-Cobalt [2008-04-08 01:09:19 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I wish I could grow mine, but I have this nasty habit of biting them off. Plus I couldn't do anything with long nails like play guitar or even type properly I'm hopeless.

Hexe-Cobalt In reply to nolwen [2008-04-15 20:13:11 +0000 UTC]

yes, typing does become a little more difficult, but most of the time i honestly can't tell the difference...until i cut my nails and i realise i can type 10x faster and i'm like "WOW!"...haha, happens every time...

Yay! That would be much appreciated. I have yet to find something that allows me to breathe and keeps the chest flat.
