Bird of Paradise

Bird of Paradise - Petshop of Horrors - Bird of Paradise
Front View of my pride and joy. This is my first built-from-the-ground-up cosplay. The only things store-bought were the base wrist-bands I added the stones to, the brooches on the chest and attached to the upper arms, and the tank top underneath it all. This costume took approximately 130 hours to complete because there's a lot of detail work, but also because I'm a complete novice. I learned so many skills with this costume!! o.O I really wanted to do this cosplay right -- a character like this cannot be done halfway, so I put a lot into it. I hope and feel that I did it some justice.

A very special thank-you to Garry for the picture and letting me use it here.

Thanks to both of you for the comments!

LadyoftheThread: I appreciate your PoH love!! Keep it up!

PinkApple: I still think you have great Sculpey skills. You and my friend Chief-chan should go head-to-head "Iron Chef" style - that would be fabulous! I have never played with the stuff and bow to you two's skills.

Absolutely gorgeous! I'm in love with the headdress and the detailing, and the flowers too! You definately did the character justice, and your hard work really shows, I love it!

And thank you for the comment on the helm, It means so much to get comments of that quality!
