This costume, along with a version of Lirin I did with my partner was created and debuted at Otakon 2003. This was our first experiment with wigs & our first full costume construction done entirely by ourselves (without consulting a seamstress friend). In general, I am very happy with how the costume came out, although my boots still need work, as they tended to "flop" more than was good, and I will likely continue to work on them before the next con.
