Description Dear any and all Tales of...games:

You have to be some of the best games I have played in years. Abyss, Eternia, Legendia, and now Vesperia. You are better than most RPGs I have played and I love you forever!

<3-
Me

So yes. I cosplayed from Vesperia at Otakon this year. Yuri had been started months ago and had gone unfinished. After some poking from my inner cosplay kid saying "HEY! FINISH THIS", I finished him. I have a few Tales costumes, but Yuri is definitely my favorite. He came out so clean and I was so happy.

And yes. If you have seen my other photos, I am a girl. I designed my shirt to bind me for this without actually physically binding. <3

Character: Yuri Lowell from Tales of Vesperia

The shirt itself is drafted to be form-fitting. It also forces me to stand up straight so it helps to flatten my out a bit more. Though, this technique only works on smaller-chested girl. I used an invisible zipper to close it over to give it extra tightness.

Its actually kinda hard to fully describe. @_@0

Thank you so much! You both looked amazing as well!

It was some much fun running into you guys! Who knew? It only took 10 minutes for us to realize we knew each other. XD

Oh well hello there! I realize now that I don't think I told you(or your group) how awesome you all looked decked out in your Vesperia duds! You made a really amazing Yuri ... with amazing Repede balancing posture skills.

Thank you lady! It was so awesome to run into you guys and spend twenty minutes taking pics until realizing we knew each other. XD You both looked amazing and it was great to get pics together. <3

And I still love that little Repede. He was too cute. XD

Oh you're a really pretty Yuri <3

And good Trick with the Shirt T_T;; I'm gonna cosplay him too, but I never think of such a possibility.

Thank you!

Its actually a really amazing technique I figured out about halfway through making it. Completely unintentionally. But when I remade the shirt, it surprisingly worked out in my favor. XD

I did love your costume. I was the retarded looking Asbel from Tales of Graces this day. I was actually there when these photos were shot....you are a very cool looking Yuri, and these pictures came out really well.

However ...I am going to say this as nice as can. o_O You def. weren't approachable.

Thank you!

I'm sorry I didn't seem approachable. I <3 Tales of Graces and would loved to talk to you. My Rita and Estelle actually don't know much about the Tales games and did the costumes as a trade for me to do Sailor Pluto. So, I was a little miffed they didn't play the game like they said they would and I was covering their butts with photographers. >.<

If you see me at another con, please come over and say hi! I always love meeting other Tales fans.

I guess the whole β€˜Don’t judge a book by its cover’ definitely applies to this silly misunderstanding! ^_^ I actually had that problem with my Angel Sanctuary group…I do applaud my friend for going as Rosiel but she had no idea who he was. Photographers are always a mess, I just bought a new Nikon so I can’t wait to take it to Katuscon with me!

Hopefully you go, so I can take loads of pictures I want more practice with it. XD

I'll be bringing Yuri to a bunch of other cons. I have every intention to make more of his outfits XD <3

Awesome. I didn't get to make Droite in time like I wanted to. But me and my Gauche have plans to finish our outfits.

How'd you make the shirt work as binding? xD Just tighter? o-o

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

residentexorcist In reply to Mel-Mousy [2010-08-09 04:29:28 +0000 UTC]

Its actually the cut of the shirt itself. I tailored it to fit a bit more snug in certain places. It also forced me to keep my back straight like I was in a corset. The belt and shirts were great for my posture that weekend. XD

That...and your avatar is very hypnotic. *Watches Guy go back and forth* o____o

Mel-Mousy In reply to residentexorcist [2010-08-09 05:01:28 +0000 UTC]

Ahhh gotcha. xD I'm planning on being Yuri, so I was wondering. xD Not that having binding is much of an issue for me, butyeah. I'll probably end up buying it though, seeing as how my sewing talent isn't THAT great.. nor do I have a sewing machine. xD -handsews the cosplays I made so far- But haha, posture.. That'd be great for me ff. It'd shut my mom up. xD BUT ANYWAY your cosplay's amazing! Cool to see that people go with Yuri's purple hair, too. Instead of the black. (I kinda use figures to figure out exactly what color some characters should be.. Yuri has two figures out, both purple, so yay!)

Haha yep. xDD
