I've worked long and hard on this costume, having contributed well over 60 hours of work into it while utilizing a the latest wing structure.
The entire wing was designed to fold within six inches of space around me, thus meeting the six inch requirement by such conventions as Anime Central. The shell is interchangeable which means I could easily make it black, white, or any other color. The way the harness was designed also means that the wings can be easily fitted on to any other costume with little alterations being required.
This cosplay has been one of the most involved cosplays to date having made the vast majority of the pieces, jacket, sleeves, and wings.
