Cosplay'n'things...

This year for ALA '10 and AX '10, I'm trying to go as Prince Soma (Kuroshitsuji) and France in his Austrian Succession uniform (APH). Of course, being the horrible cosplayer I am, I have little to no skill and take forever. I have yet to buy the rest of the material for France, but I have started on Soma. I'm nowhere near done for either of the two outfits, but eventually, I will be...eventually. For sure, I want to get Soma done for ALA, but I can hold off on France since I have his WW2 uniform already done...-stress, stress, stress-.




Don't you love how little my brain functions ? Red on red. Yes, Nee...you're so smart.
Anyway, this is all I really have done. The vest is what I made, but the shoes and earrings I bought because they happened to appear in my life and I wanted needed them.





The front and back of the cosplay. I had to hand bead everything because no one could do it for me (lol). And yes, I know Prince Soma has nothing on the back of his vest, but it was so plain that I decided I wanted something there. Besides, he's a prince, I'm sure he could afford to have it done. Also, gold looks more regal, so I changed the trim color too~



Went to Little India which is like half an hour away from my house and bought these shoes. They weren't the best quality, but we paid 15 dollars for them anyway. We got ripped off, but they were so perfect for the outfit and they have beading so I guess the price is okay.

I'm not sure if the shoes were made that way or if I'm just dumb, but I seriously don't think they have a left and right shoe....



Bought these beauties at the town's cultural fair. They are seriously my favorite part of the entire cosplay. <333

I went to Michael's recently and found some giant golden pendants with little gems in them. I'm sure I'll use them for Soma's jewlery. I hope they're still in stock, though...(Michael's is expensive. D8>)

And finally, I get to blind you with my face. D8>
What I got so far I put on...



Obviously, I did not bind for this, though I really should have to. Ughhh, I wish I weren't as gross looking. But Thanksgiving induced comatose caused me to not wipe off my eyeliner so I look like an emo addict of some kind...

I'm so excited for Anime Los Angeles this year!

I'm going with two of my friends from my high school, Judy and khtosanimelover. I haven't bought my tickets yet (fail) and they both have. We're still struggling to find two more people to room with us, because we'll seriously have no place to stay if we decide to go with only three people. OTL. For sure, my mom can't keep dropping us off and picking us up, I don't think Judy drives, and khtos isn't legal to drive minors yet.

Oh ho ho, basically, we're all screwed. We might, though, end up having to stay at khtos's house or meet up and get down there together, which is a pain since I actually want to go to a few morning gatherings too. Hahah, ah well, hopefully something turns up before January? -prays-

Unrelated to everything else. I don't know why there are so many random French boys/men who keep IMming me and asking me to be their friends. I don't even know them. Sometimes they even ask me to get together with them, but I haven't ever met them. Sure, my skype name is France due to the roleplay I'm in, but still, I don't even know them...

Of course, my French is getting much better because I can only speak to them in French...but I don't understand French slang...OTL

I'll probably change my skypename soon.
