Description

SEPH-I-ROTH~

I had sooo much fun with this cosplay. I can't even tell you.

--Worn To--
Sakura Con 07
J-Fest 07
Anime Evolution 07

--Creation--
Okay, head to toes...
The wig was from ebay, the colour was custom to Sephiroth's but had to be cut and styled. The styling was hell since I had to re do it several times, unfortunately I did not have the proper supplies to make a lasing style so... oh well.

The armor was also interesting. I had planned to make the armor out of plastic using a tutorial I found online, but I was unable to find the needed materials in time. So I just made do with what I could make. I mad a frame out of wire and used layers upon layers of papier mache. It was spray painted, topped with a clear acrylic, then the detailed edges were done with hot glue. I wired the three pieces of each side together and glued in Velcro for attachment to the coat.

The coat was the best piece in my opinion. The pattern was drafted from an existing coat. The pleather I used was thin and easy to sew and took barely any effort. I sewed in the leather straps for the chest and the buckle closure at the front.

The pants... were a mess. I will never sew stretchy pleather again.

The boots were a pair I already owned with some boot covers sewn over them. The boot covers and boots were purposely beaten up to have a used effect on them.

--Good Stuff--

Walking around as Sephiroth is simply fantastic. And I also wore it in the Anime Evolution Walk Off and became the runner up >3

--Bad Stuff--

At Sakura Con and for a meet up, I tired different ways of binding, and none worked properly o_o; So I just ended up wearing a tank top underneth.
Pleather is really, really hot.

--Memorable Moments--

Walk off. >3
