Soo my cosplay plans changed a little. I’m still doing Yuna, Ringo, and Miku. I may not do Ciel Phantomhive anymore. I decided not to because Black Butler is still very popular so there will be 9483578495 Kuroshitsuji cosplayers.. I’d rather be one of the few people cosplaying a certain character. It’s more fun that way haha. If there are so many of the same cosplay, unless yours is one of the best of them all, it’ll just be looking at the same thing. So I have 3 new ideas. I also figure that if I go to Otakon next year, I need 3 epic cosplays xD

One is Zhen Ji from Dynasty Warriors 6. She’s one of the few female characters you can actually play in the game. She resides in the Kingdom of Cao, and her husband is Cao Pi. (hehe one of my favorite male characters) She’s one of my favorite female characters. Sun Shang Xiang being my first of course.

Anyways, I was on Skype with one of my friends I met from AnimeNEXT. Somehow we got to the topic of Dynasty Warriors 6. He wanted to cosplay as Cao Pi and I said I’d cosplay as Zhen Ji (I like her outfit anyways ^^).

So we’re going to do that for Otakon 2011, unless my other two cosplays I have planned fall through, then AnimeNEXT 2011!

 

The next cosplay idea I have is a Sakura one from Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicles. I have to finish reading that actually.. But the storyline breaks my heart, even though I partially know what happens in the end, but still! I love the idea of a Sakura x Syaoran storyline.

This one is in the making actually, I’ll most likely have this one for AnimeNEXT as well. I already began making the dress portion of it last night for no reason xD I just wanted to see if I could actually do it.

It’s actually coming out pretty decent actually. It’s long and flowy 😀 The only problem I have is that.. I didn’t use a pattern when I made it. I sort of took a piece of fabric and started snipping and sewing away. Soo.. we’ll see how it comes out in the end! ^^ If it works, I’ll use it, if not, then I won’t.

 

Last but not least! I wanted to do another cosplay, where the character had sort of a baby face or looked like a child. Mainly because.. I’ll only look
like a 12 year old for so long xDD Don’t worry I’m not that young.. but I get that a lot hahaa, so I figure do all the children looking one before my face matures and I don’t look like that anymore..

So I decided to do a Chii cosplay. I’ve always wanted to cosplay as Chii. There’s one Chii cosplay that I make, it’s my dream cosplay. But! My skill level isn’t there yet.. So I don’t want to make it at the moment. This is her from Tsubasa Chronicles, hence the animal-like ears. I’m probably just going to do her persocom ears.

As sad as it is to say, this is one of her simpler ones xD I love a lot of her other outfits, but they’re lolita-esque, so many of them are poofy, and I don’t really know how to make the cosplay round like that.. And it doesn’t help that I don’t have a dress form either.. D: There is one other one I really want to do, but the way the picture is drawn, it makes no sense.

I really love this one, I like the idea of Chii as a princess, she looks really cute and elegant. But! This would only make sense to me if the opening was in the front, but the way the picture is drawn, it’s open in the back. That and if it were opened that way, you can’t have a petticoat. Without a petticoat, the dress wouldn’t poof. Without a poof, it wouldn’t be much of a princess dress.

If I can figure out how to do this one then I will. ^^ Oh CLAMP.. You and your gravity defying clothing.. >< But yeah.. these are my new cosplay plans.. So I’ll end up having to do.. 6 cosplays next year?? o_O

I’m hoping to finish Yuna before next weekend.. Miku is pretty much done. Ringo is an easy one. Then there’s these three.. xD Zhen Ji will probably be the hardest. Sakura, I pretty much have the base dress done. Chii.. I may just do a circle dress for the one.. Not sure yet..haha

2011 Cosplay Plans

2011, air gear, black butler, ciel phantomhive, cosplay, final fantasy x, hatsune miku, kuroshitsuji, magnet, megurine luka, ringo noyamano, vocaloid, yuna

I’m going to upload my cosplay pictures (that I should’ve uploaded a while ago..) from this year! Did a photoshoot with all three cosplays. Will be doing another Tifa photoshoot in August.. This will seriously be my 5th photoshoot with her.. Hopefully my last xD The idea will get stale if I do it too many times..

I will hopefully be doing a “shipping” photoshoot as Kurama with my friend as Hiei. Then possibly doing a Miku Hatsune x Luka Megurine photoshoot from the song “Magnet” by the program Vocaloids 2. In the process of making the headphones.. which is torture D: I love the way it looks, but cutting out little pieces out of a butterfly wing is tedious.. May do a tutorial on it since someone requested it.

So anyways! My 2011 Cosplay Plan!

Yuna from Final Fantasy X! I’ve wanted to cosplay as her for the longest time. I am absolutely in love with her story (even though I have yet to play the game… Unfortunately I know the basic outline of what happens)

Her story breaks my heart. Ah.. now it seems like I love her character more that I love her outfit.. I still love her outfit hahaa, her story just captivates me even more.

I always thought of myself as a tragic person. Everytime I wrote stories, someone would have to die, or have their heart broken..

There’s other reasons too, but that’s another story for another day..

Anywhoo.. I bought her fabric!! Hopefully working on it this weekend.. Though I doubt I’ll finish the staff by then..

Ciel Phantomhive! I originally wanted to cosplay in his pink ball gown outfit.. But.. since Black Butler is gaining more popularity.. It’s like everyone else in the world is doing it as well.. And I don’t cosplay in the same thing as everyone else xD

I’ll do it one day.. just not now.. So I chose his outfit from the cover of the “Monochrome no Kiss” CD by SID. I’ve only seen one cosplay of this. Just one.

But since it’s a cover album art, they don’t show the whole thing.. So I’m just going to make up the bottom portion. I have an idea of what I want to do. Executing it may be an issue..

Ringo Noyamano from Air Gear. My friend has an Air Gear group and they asked me to be Ringo xD

Hers is relatively simple so it shouldn’t take me that long to make. Though I probably won’t work on it this summer haha.

Finally, Miku Hatsune from Vocaloid 2, with the outfit from the song, “Magnet,” a duet sung with Luka Megurine about forbidden love.

I don’t really like doing super popular cosplays unless I really like the character. I will still do them, but just when the fad is over. For example, I wanted to make a Lightning or Vanille cosplay from Final Fantasy XIII.. But since the game just came out.. 29365792465439 other people are cosplaying as Lightning.. So.. I’ll probably do it in 2012.. or maybe later than that.

But what sparked this one was my friend is cosplaying as Kururu from Air Gear and had a similar pink wig. And I said we should do a Vocaloid cosplay, and this one is probably one of the easier ones. (Too many Miku’s in the world anyways..)

Been making the headphones for this one. Will upload it soon!

So these are my cosplay plans for next year! If I (hopefully) go to Otakon next year, may come up with something else as well xD I have a ton of ideas for cosplays.. Wish I could just make them all xD
