otakon 2007 - i decided to make this costume the sunday before otakon... so that left me with very little time to do it since i still have props and costumes to finish... so IT'S UBER GHETTO

shirt - modified tshirt... i modified a few tshirts into sleeveless shirts before and didn't have a problem... this time i dunno why but it came out funky... so i asked my friends for help

pants - went with tan cargo pants. yes i know its white... but i dun like white pants...cargo pants are better than regular pants since they have pockets!

cape - didn't get to finish that

sword - li does have a sword in the manga i dunno about anime since i haven't watch the whole series yet. made from a boken. added details. the silver paint was stubborn. even though it felt like it was dry, it wasn't because fingerprints appeared when i held it. it didn't help that the few days before otakon was rather humid.

goggles - made from a few cans of monster, PVC pipes, plastic, hotglue, some fabric and a old choker

katsucon 2008 - got a wig but nothing else added
