Ladies and Gentlemen,

Behold, my first ever cosplay, from back at Otakon 2004 (which was my first anime convention too, when I think about it).

Heh, I've been wanting to put this pic up for a while, but I was too lazy. Today, I was just sitting around and figured I'd put it up since this is the only pic from Otakon 2004 of this costume. I would put it in the Otakon 2004 folder, but this is a bit of a stroll down memory lane for me, so I figured I'd leave it in the default galleries.

Oh man, I really can't look at this now without laughing, from the black jeans to the duct tape gunblade (not to mention the gloves that are missing due to the fact I left them in the car >_<), it's only been two years but I've already learned so much more getting tips from a wide variety of people that man...the costume was so ghetto! And my hair was short!! XD!

I do plan on redoing this costume sometime, probably for next year (Squall's one of my favorite characters, after all).

In either case, I never posted this pic before and today, I just felt like it. You never forget your first, after all. ^_^
