So I just found one of the bags I used to take to summer camp with me. It's like, perfect for a Companion Cube. I was googling Chell cosplays and saw people who'd made giant Companion Cube backpacks, and I was trying to figure out how to make one of those myself. And now I have the perfect bag. I'll put cardboard in it to make it stand out square- ( Read more... )

( Me rambling about cosplay ideas. Mega Man and Portal seem to be a big influence. )

Realized that I should probably start thinking of who/what to cosplay as at MAGFest.
