Well now, this was kind of on a whim. I'd become obsessed with Hetalia and wanted to make one of the characters for an upcoming convention. Japan's uniform looked like it'd be the easiest.

And this project was actually pretty easy, especially considering the short amount of time I had to finish it. Admittedly, the pants were not made by me. I just bought them from a thrift store because of time and money restraints. Also, the pants I did buy were the best pair I could find but they're ankle length, so they're not really the best.
The wig was a bit longer so I had to trim off a couple of inches. I'm pretty happy with the end result.
The jacket is actually not accurate if you're looking at Japan's jacket design in the anime. I used an official colored sketch of Japan for my reference, therefore the collar only has one strip of yellow on the very top as opposed to the anime style where the yellow strip is on top and on the bottom of the collar.
