Cosplay Lineup - 2015

I already mentioned about future projects in my Journal, but here's the listed cosplays that I would explain construction while cleaning out my old submissions and/or replacing them. I'm currently at the starting point of all 3, so I can document the process if people would like, otherwise I'll just post completed versions when finished.

-------

-Hattori Hanzo from Samurai Warriors is my first listed cosplay that was planned for Anime North 2015. Sentimental value for this character, since I'm also a martial artist. This cosplay is very technical heavy, ratio is extremely important, and a lot of unassuming difficulties for something that looks simple in design. Reality vs Fantasy, for example, chainmail is not form-fitting, no matter what people tell you! >:[ This costume would address how to get a outfit to fit YOU, and not you to fit the character.

-Auron from Final Fantasy X, this costume was a long time character that I dreamed of making, but didn't think I could because I look too young (I knew there were perks to getting old!). A few friends are helping me with aesthetics, and I'm ridiculously happy to finally be able to tackle this legendary guardian. This cosplay took the place of a certain dragon... listed below for AN'15. Auron is fabric heavy, so WIPs will include different sewing skills, and techniques. His katana will explain how to make oversize durable props, and some facial fun to look older.

-Volga from Hyrule Warriors is pushed back until I can get a group of friends to join in the madness. (I was originally going to make Link, but pfff... since when do I take the easy route?) Also the fact that I have no villain costumes, Hero's Shade is about as evil looking as it gets in my roster. I heard being a villain is fun, and you get to steal candy from babies. I do love candy... WIPs will be dedicated to forming all those fun armour shapes with cardboard, paper mache, etc. This costume won't start until next Summer. (edit: screw it, he needs to start now~)

If you would rather have just a specific one, that works too. Just comment below, it's very helpful, and lets me know this account is still worthwhile to post cosplay related things, since I took that hiatus break. Same as always, feel free to ask any questions on past cosplays too, I'll answer whenever I can. I love hearing about other people's projects~!
