My first cosplay but also the hardest..
I don't even remember how much time I spent altering the coat but it still took me til 9a.m. in the morning on the day of the con before I was finished. I procrastinated too much though..

Anyways I found the coat and turtle neck at thift store, the earring at Wal-mart and luckily enough I already had a dull-edged katana and the boots.
Since I didn't have much money at the time, I stole buckles from old shoes around the house to use for my outfit..^.^;. Then I cut and fashioned out the buckle straps from excess material from the coat for both arms and the front.
Sewing on the grey was probably the easiest part..

Finally complete since I found the right wig! T.T
