So I made the costume in 2005. Made the automail (FINALLY) and revamped a few pieces in 2007.

I loved the costume before (it's so comfy!) but with the automail I think it's my favorite yet. I've put it off for two years and finally said "YEAH IT'S GO TIME, METAL ARM!!!" And I totally owned its face. It's got a slide out blade and everything! I'm reworking the blade system for Otakon hopefully, as the one I've got now is a little flawed.

Not much to say about the costume itself, it's pretty generic actually. I can't read patterns. Just because it says "easy" doesn't mean it's easy to figure out. Ahahaha. The automail--my baby--is Wonderflex, 6 tubes of epoxy putty, and ABS plastic.

Whenever I got a "HEY SHORTY" yelled at me OUT CAME THE BLADE and then they took it back. :D

Ed is too cool.
