While everyone is away to Comic Con I am trying to catch up on all my AX adventures XD I finally uploaded my AX pictures which you can view in my Convention Photobucket ^^
Risque Cutie's Convention Gallery I'll be updating it with other conventions soon. I need to organize my photos. I just found it convenient this way =D The only picture I forgot to upload was one of NyuNyu in her Iron Mouse costume *der* I should resize one and add it...
There's stories behind several of those photos, but everyone will probably get tired of listening to me haha so onto the next section of my post...
Under the LJ cut I've included one pic of what I wore each day and commentary on them. Just in case anyone was curious ^^;;;
Friday -
Momoko from Berryz Koubou's Gag 100kaibun Aishite Kudasai PV
Picture by
katielovespink This was the costume I wore in line for the 7 hours I was in Reg Line. It's the one I got the sunburn in XD Also note that I'm not wearing my gloves (they're in the purse) as I had taken them off to run up to the hotel room ^^; Also, yes, the shoes are wrong as well, but I had the boots on in the morning and when I finally decided to face the line of doom I changed into more comfortable shoes which I'm glad I did! I wouldn't have survived wearing the boots >_< I had decided to wear this outfit on Friday because I had intended to wear it for the SOS dance competition as it has good movement to it and for the karaoke where I had planned on singing Gag 100kaibun Aishite Kudasai. I didn't make it to either event *grrrr* I've now worn this to 3 conventions and I think I'm going to put it into a bit of semi retirement. I need to take the shirt in anyhoo as in photos it makes me look very pudgy hahaha XD OH! And about 5 people actually recognized what I was from! Some random guy in the Hyatt passed by me and said "Nice Momoko." Not too bad I think!
Saturday -
Himawari from xxxHolic
Photo by Impgard
Even though you can't see it in this photo this outfit is about 98% inaccurate ROFL It started out as being for Komari Imaike from HanaKimi but when that didn't happen I decided to bring it anyway to have something else to run around in. I had the sudden idea that it just might work for Himawari and even called MeiMei up to make sure I was doing the hair right and see what colour socks and shoes she wears. Well that depends on whether you're going by Manga or Anime so it's all good. I didn't think about her yellow ribbons, but after she gives them away she doesn't wear them in the manga so it's all good ^^ Anyhoo this is the only new costume I had for AX and this is the only photo you'll find of it. I intend to wear it again with a little more accuracy. Roughly 3 people recognized who I was attempting. The Yuko and Himawari from the picture I took said they saw me earlier and thought I was also Himawari and while I was on the escalator talking to Mei at one point some people yelled at me "HIMAWARI! xxxHOLIC!!!!!" until I waved at them XDDDD Also what's rather funny is most people I knew and talked to that day in this asked me if I planned to wear a costume ^^;;;;;; I guess it looks like something I would normally wear? Well...close actually LOL
Sunday Morning -
Tomoyohime from Tsubasa
Photo by dead.pepper
Not much commentary I think for this one lol You all know how I feel about Tomoyo <333333's And I can't thank dead.pepper enough for the photoshoot. And thank you Zory for being my Kurogane for atleast a little bit~! I do have to say this is the one costume that was the most photographed of mine for the weekend. I couldn't budge very far for awhile. I even was interviewed while wearing it ^^ I intend to wear her one more time and then I think take a break from this version unless people beg me to wear it somewhere or there's going to be a really awesome Tsubasa gathering somewhere. But I do know I WILL be making another Tomoyo costume in the future. Just need to decide which...
Sunday Afternoon -
HinaIchigo from Rozen Maiden
Photo by RyuHayabusaDOA2
I rushed to change out of Tomoyo for the RM gathering and although I was late I'm glad I made it! It was a lot of fun and there are some great group pics taken! We were only missing one doll and there was even a Jun who was super nice. But the ground was HOT even through all the layers. I would love to attend another RM gathering, but I really think Hina is also going into semi retirement. She's a lot of fun, but I've worn her twice in a row and I want to wear other costumes.
Monday -
B/W Lolita - Original Design
Photo by Spooky Electric
I didn't get to finish my gingham Loli so I took this one out and wore it. I changed my hair, stockings, and shoes from the first time I debuted it and I think also from the time I wore it to ALA last year XDDD ah well...It's comfy and most people actually like this Loli of mine so it's all good. Unfortunately I look very wasted and drained in most of the photos which I probably was by Monday >_< I still enjoyed meeting all the Lolita's at my Tea party <3's
Sorry for the long post XD
