Description Suki- Kyoshi Warrior Version (Avatar: The Last Airbender), 10/31/10

I just loved how the reds of this shot matched, and my expression was just too awesome!

Wore this to Otakon 2010 (was a little less beat-up then), and will be wearing it again in 2011!

Photography: Mum (Of all the awful shots, we finally get a good one! )
Cosplayer: Me

Wow this is amazing! I love how it came out (coming from someone who's never even seen the Avatar cartoons or movie) this costume has a very oriental feeling to it and you did a lovely job with the face paints. I also really like how the Gauntlets came out. the head piece (sorry I'm not sure what to call it ) is a nice touch that finishes the costume. Lucky you got to go to an Otaku convention! let me know how the next one goes! you get a favorite for awesomeness!

Well hey, you'll see a new costume from me here in the next few days, so yeah! I JUST got back from Otakon last weekend to depart on a family trip, so I've been gone- but I should have time to sort/edit photos on our one long driving leg!

That was the objective, thanks. I worked especially hard on the armour and the headdress (I call it a headpiece too, there's no technical term, lol!), glad to hear it went well!

Also, that makeup takes a solid 45 minutes to do every time I put it on. Glad to hear it looks good, it'd a bit of a pain, lolol!

Definitely a bit different, definitely out there- got some stares from the neighbors when I did a test run. At least this was Halloween, so they were expecting it!

Haha, I bet it was! Hopefully I can get enough money to start cosplaying. I really want to do it. But I already need so much money to do so many other things.

Ah yes, cosplay can be a bit expensive.

Might I recommend trying a "closet cosplay" at first? Goodwill and other thrift shops have some great finds that with a little dye and modification can be turned into something really cool!

Anytime, and good luck!

Oh, right! Also, don't limit yourself to finding items in the right colour. Joanne's (or any fabric store) carries packets of RIT Dye for about $3. A friend of mine wanted to make this suit: [link] but would've never been able to find a suit in the right colour. A tan one cost her $12 at Goodwill and the dye $3, so for $15 she had a really awesome looking costume! Just focus more on the style of the actual clothing itself, and remember that you can always make edits too.

Thank you very much!

The makeup takes me a solid 45 minutes to an hour to do every time I wear it. Glad to hear the mess I made in the sink was worth it!

The headgear took a solid day, lol. It was so much fun though! I bet you'll never guess what it's made out of.

I did too, obviously! Thank you!

I'll definitely be wearing it one day- all depends on when the Soul Eater group wants to do their big group thing (apparently there's going to be a Soul Eater lunch, maybe...?), and when I can make a Vocaloid shoot.

I hope I can see your cosplays too!
