WCG 2008

Aug 12, 2008 21:47

Been planning to cosplay as Link on WCG 2008 since quite some time ago. I just hope my Link could win an award, for the hardwork and reward :P Last year's ComicFiesta I couldn't get in as I went late for the event >.< .

I reached early at Suntec and changed to my Link costume slowly. By the time I was ready, it was around 11.45am. I went around the event area in and out and spot quite a few cosplayers. None of them are friends that I know and it seems most of them cosplay pretty well ^_^!

Link's sword was made too heavy and sometimes I can't hold in my pose for too long. Still, I'm proud of the overall work ^o^ All the sanding of the blade, spray paint, applying and shaping the putty...etc etc. Also I'm soooo happy and proud to show my shield all around XD I love it ! Love it ! lots ! Okie okie... I think I mentioned about all these too many times ^^u

And so.... Congras to Link XDD ~! You won First Prize ~! Just like the game itself that was on the high ranking for months when it was out! Things would be even better if ka ma and me all kopped the Top 3. awww...  WCG cosplay competition wasn't like what I thought it should be like. It was overall... too breezy ~ and I think they changed the voting system to 50% (instead of 20%) with regards to overall score. Thanks alot to the people who were willing to vote for me XDD


I like this picture taken by Eugin after the event.
We all went up to the 6th floor for mini phototaking
^_^. It was kind of interesting to take there as
there was no event and all was quiet and clear.

The escalator was not in use and thus i was able
to pose here. One main reason why I choose to
rest my left hand in front of my face was to capture
the arm guard design clearly ^^. When I first did Link,
I couldn't finish on the arm guard design on time. It
was easier then I thought to finish up and I'm happy
with the results.

This photo shows the my sword overall design well too.
The sword hinge was also the first time I worked with
epoxy putty. The initial color of the hinge wasn't
satisfying and thus a day before WCG I applied a
slight spray of pearl silver and it turn out much better
then a matte grey.

Only disappointment on that day: My cap/hat kept
sliding off -_- To the point when in some pics, I looked
like an female elf with short brown hair. Aww... with or
without the hat makes so much difference >.<



Another fav pic taken by Eugin ^^
Love the background lights! This pose
was meant to focus on the shield too ^^



Eugin took a good shot with this pic too! The overall lightening is soft (pic too small to notice) and very sweet ^^. First time ma cosplay girl and me guy too :) (sadly forgot take head shots with ka!!) Pretty ma too~! She looked very much like a fairy to me XD

With the Link-love burning within !! I set the next Link Project Upz !!

*YESH* ! Phantom Hourglass version!*
Overall cos looks similar to my first Link, except the difference in Shield and Sword design.
And suprisingly, eugin supports this project OoO ! One important Cosplay Mission coming up !
