Cosplay made and worn by me.

So this was a super last minute cosplay idea I wanted to do before FanExpo (so I could show Yaya Han ) I made the entire thing on the fly and it took me around 2 weeks. The staff was literally done the day before and I was waiting for paint to dry before I put it in my car to drive to Toronto the morning of the con :/

This was first attempt at armor and I am quite pleased with the results; I think I did Yugi's fav card justice n.n

I contacted Evil FX Props & Armor  for advice in making certain aspects of this armor and I recommend checking out his stuff - he's amazing and super nice!

Check out the Dark Magician Tutorial  album on my Facebook page  for full instructions on how I made the armor, staff, and outfit!

This is super well-done! It's so funny how many details go into the top of the costume, yet the bottom is more plain xD

Thank you very much! I try to use official figures as reference so that I can stay as true to the original anime as possible. Not all my photos show the whole body, but you can see the details on the greaves and shoes here  and here  ^_^

I saw, and I really love the whole costume! You really did awesome on it. :0

It's awesome when you can use the figured for reference. They're really helpful. I've seen it done with Yami cosplays as well.

Thanks again!  And yes, I use the figures as much as possible. It's how I figured out what the back of the wigs should look like for my Yami Yugi and Marik cosplays too.
