So I'm back at school now, and I've been working quite hard on my end of semester projects and studying for my exams! I only have two, but they are going to be hard enough. But I'm taking a break right now to get ready for our end of semester performance, so I felt like I had enough time to blog today! :D
So today, I want to talk about my plans for my cosplay at Anime North 2012! Whats cool about this year is that I've already made and set my cosplay plans! Normally I'm switching cosplays up until the month before the convention, but this year I've already chosen my cosplays and I'm sticking with them!
My main cosplay (for Saturday), is a character named Melty from a video game (and soon to be anime) called Shining Hearts!
She is a witch, but all her attacks in the game are based off of ice cream! Hahaha. She is so me. I also am very excited to have a large hat like hers, because last year I got major sunburns on my shoulders and back. So now I get some sun protection built into my costume! :D WOOHOO!
I really like the character designs from all of the Shining series, but especially the ones in Shining Hearts! I actually have a group coming with me as a few of the other characters as well! And I'm thinking of making Melty's sidekick (Sorbet, the little guy by her feet), into a sort of purse! Functional, and actually goes with the costume!
For Sunday, I chose a much simpler cosplay, but one that still has lots of impact! I chose to do my second Vocaloid cosplay, Matryoshka Gumi!
I was going to do Matryoshka Luka, since I already have the wig, but Gumi's design is much more vivid and eye catching.
I'm going to (most likely) be teaching dance covers at a K-Pop workshop on Sunday, so I wanted something that I could move around in easily! Plus Sunday is usually a more lazy day for me, so I want something that won't be to cumbersome or uncomfortable either!
I'm really excited to do the makeup for this cosplay! It'll be a good chance for me to start working on my more theatrical makeup styles! I haven't decided on whether I'll powder my face or not yet... but we shall see!
And those are my costumes for Anime North this year! I've already ordered both of the wigs for these cosplays, and hopefully they'll arrive in the next couple of weeks or so! I'll post pictures as soon as I get them! I hope they look good ; ^ ;
Anyways, since I have all this free time, I'm gonna try and work on my FSEs now ;___;
Until next time!!
