Thanksgiving and more cosplay ideas
Happy Thanksgiving!
I made a cake earlier and dinner was good although it was a little weird not having anyone over this year. When I was a kid, all of our relatives on my mother’s side would come over (4 siblings and their families). Some of them eventually wanted to start cooking their own Thanksgiving dinner so fewer of them came over time. We only had 2 or 3 over last year. But this year, they wanted to go out to eat in Chinatown with relatives on the other side of their family instead. My mother didn’t particularly mind since it meant less work for her. But as long as I can remember, we’ve always had at least a few relatives over for Thanksgiving so it was a bit strange to have no one over at all.
On a more cheerful note, I got Japanese volume 6 of the PSOH sequel in the mail yesterday. Haven’t taken a thorough look through it yet but ooh, I like this picture from the back cover. ^_^
It might go on my list of possible D costumes but if it did, I doubt I’d get to it soon since there isn’t a picture of the front and I’m not good at art. ^_^;; Don’t know if I’d do the scythe. I lack prop experience and can’t imagine it working well for many poses other than the one in the pic since the blade curves like a hook. And with the giant tassel, it has to be the most impractical scythe design ever. :-P I’m also amused Taizu the mobster is in a robe with pink clouds instead of his usual dark suit.
I also kind of like this one. It would be fun for Halloween. Could work for the Costume Con theme of “Vampires, Villains, and Vixens” too but I don’t think I like it enough to bump some of the other things I was considering making.
I think the above was actually supposed to be Taizu’s imagination or something because in the following pages, D is dressed for Halloween in a robe with cartoony ghosts, bats, and jack-o-lanterns. What the hell? XD;
I kind of wonder if Matsuri Akino has been trying to come up with something silly for him to wear every few chapters because there was already an outfit with cartoony birds in an earlier volume, and one with giant fish which weren’t cartoony but looked silly anyway just because they were so huge.
