Ramblings (animu related, etc), Wig photos, and... "COSTUME PROGRESS" LOL
Voting for cosplaylab's Tsubasa contest is up. I entered. The end. :D
Okay, official Death Note dub, you kind of fail. Light is a SOCIOPATH. NOT QUATRE!! While Brad Swaille would be PERFECT for Tamaki, he just can't pull off UBER SINISTER like Mamoru Miyano can. And OH SMACK, don't even get me started on L's voice. I hit mute whenever he starts talking. *TWITCH* Conversely, Naomi's dub voice is... well, WAS freaking perfect. Great casting on that one. Ryuk is decent enough, I suppose.
I watched the first episode of Rental Magica... has anyone on my FL seen this? Is it worth going on? I'm pretty picky about anime these days, so if it's closer to lame and generic than interesting and original, it's not worth my time. Rental Magica to me kinda seems copycatish and I'm not really one for Meganekos. For some reason, I just don't like em. I think it's probably some sort of deep-ridden hate that stems from MKR, when Fuu got the hottie and Umi (TALL GIRL) got NOTHIN.
Actually, this is getting WAY off topic, but I have feared glasses all my life. My vision started deteriorating in 5th grade, which was right before schools stopped giving eye exams. I still remember my last school eye exam. I couldn't even begin to tell the nurse lady what letters I was looking at, so I was just guessing what I THOUGHT they might be and hoping I was right. They actually made me go into the office for more testing and the nurse asked, "Are you aren't just saying the wrong letter so you can get glasses?" I wanted to CRY. I HATED the idea of wearing glasses. Once at summer camp, after finding out that one of the resident "hotties" had asked one of my friends, Ashley, to the dance on the last night, I remember asking, "Ashley?? But... I mean... she wears GLASSES..." and everyone just staring at me and saying, "...so?" That was kind of the first time it hit me that glasses did not = AUTO-FUG. Not that I thought Ashley was ugly, oh no, she was cute! I just never thought any GUY would be able to see past her glasses. How weird is that? XD;; I was a strange kid.
Anyway, I finished styling my Nana wig last night! I was too lazy to put on make-up at first, and just got this picture.
And I wasn't really digging the wig. Then I was like "GAHFINE." and put on make-up and a black shirt, and it just looked 99.9% more Nana-like.
A little b&w to mix it up.
I started to play around with PS on my make-up, and was going to undo the changes, but decided I liked them too much. I guess I'll try my best to get my make-up this heavy come time to actually cosplay her. It makes me look 20% more Asian. ;D (Why 20, you ask? The world may never know.)
Ohhhh, but Nana wig-cutting isn't the only thing I've been up to lately! The night before, I was partaking in even more RIDICULOUS shenanigans... Of the atrocious, closet cosplay variety...
HINT:
That's right, sports fans, it's CLOSET YOKO TIEM. Feel free to laugh now. (Those are indeed my black mage thigh-highs flipped under at the top and turned so you can't see the yellow. XD
I promise I'm not groping my boob, I was just covering the tag (which I didn't feel like removing).
HAY, with a costume like this, you HAVE to do a butt-test, OKAY?!
...More than one butt test.
...In different types of lighting... >_> Don't judge me.
And now for the TRUE horror that = too much time on your hands.
MY YOKO COSTUME IS COMPLETE!!! SEE U GAIZ AT ANIME BOSTON. ROFL. Oh, photoshop, y u make me do this?
Alright, that's all for today! Time to go work on that Costume Designer process paper due tomorrow... >_>
