Wow, really lovely cosplay! The head-piece is amazingly done, I love that you got all the details with the yellow part.
And the wings look perfect from what you can see here, fantastic! Just a question from a fellow cosplayer; would you share how you made the wings? You see, I'm going to do a Mercedes cosplay as well. Almost done, I've only got the wings left actually, but I am having a very hard time with how to make them. I would be very grateful if you could help me with this, and I'll credit your help when I post a photo of my cosplay!

Thank you!
The wings are made of clear plastic which I spray painted with blue and green. The black parts are of soft foam which I glued on both sides of the plastic.
Hope this helps!

No problem! I don't really know how to explain it, it's a bit tricky. It's really hard to explain in english, it takes really long to explain even in my mother language. :/ I used bras and sewed in some metal supports on the back and put the wings on them. That way it looked like they were attached directly onto my bare back without any kind of straps or other things. I'd have to show you a picture so it'd be understandable, but sadly I don't have any. :C I'm sorry. (I only have a picture of my back when wearing the full outfit, just click it bigger -> [link] )

I'm already done with the wings now. Didn't get to do it with the bra thingy but it went pretty well!

Thanks. It's a pity it's winter and really snowy in here. I'll have to wait for summer to get some full body pictures outside. : D

Yeah I've understood that it's fairly cold and wintery from Glowie.
Unless you want to go out and freeze your butt of in a wintery scene I think that would serve you best. ;D

At the very least, I do remember you now (after this kinda embarassing moment)! I met Glowie today and I realized that you're the same person from Facebook who commented a picture I was in. And I heard about the link between Glowie and you. It's sad we missed getting acquainted while you were here in Finland not so long ago. So at least it's good we met through dA!
You too, take care, Martin! : D

I can imagine how it must have been, but as said no offence taken. How would you have guessed? :>
Now you know. About meeting up, yeah I can imagine it happening sometime in the future. But for now I suppose you understand if I rather want to focus on being with her rather than meeting a bunch of people. I want to spend the bit of time I have her on.
We've met and hopefully will stay in touch.
You too Ina ^^
