So I have everything pretty much down for AWA this year: pre-regged, hotel room, artist table--woo hoo!!!
Now, I'm not going to be able to cosplay this time, only because I'm tight on money (I'm using it to get my artist table products made), so I'm just going to wear something fashionable everyday...^^'
please visit my table! I'll be sitting with the amazing Shadi (shadowivy on DA)! Here's the stuff I'll be selling (copied from my DA)
Blood Type Bookmarks:
Price: $3
Greek Zodiac Zombie Mini-posters (a work in progress):Price: $4
Character Badges (work in progress):Price: $2
I will update this when I get my other products done! ^^
My commission prices are $10 for a character drawing or bust drawing (in pencil).-It is $2 dollars more to add another character.
-$3 for a background (you will get decent backgrounds now, since I'm taking a perspective class XD kekeke)
If you want your commission in color:
-$3 more for digital coloring (inking is part of this price)
-$5 more for marker/color pencil coloring
NEW! Sketchbook Cover PaintingsI might do mass-painted (? lol) sketchbook covers (fanart covers basically)...but for now...
-mini painting-$5
-full cover painting-$10
These will all be finished with matte spray.
Be aware that I cannot/will not draw:-complex buildings
-vehicles
-hentai (but I draw suggestive drawings)
-yaoi (again, I'll do it suggestively, same with yuri)
-yuri
-chibis

-I draw in a more realistic style, so I can't really do drawings like Lucky Star or DearS (I'll still accept drawing them, but just don't expect them to look anything like the characters ^^' )

So I was pondering about cosplay and I thought it'd be cool to do a random fighting character. I know people get naggy if you don't know much about the character or the series it comes from, but I don't care. ^^' I'm doing this for fun and aesthetic. Though, I don't think people know much about her either (did this girl say her??? this might be her first actual COSplay...XDDD; ).
Crimson Viper. Street Fighter IV. f%&# yeah.
XD I think this chick is sooo hot! I just love her look! I really hope I can pull her off. What is great about girl fighters is that...well...they have some massive hip and thighage going on, meaning I can cosplay her! XDDD;
I think that's all. XD
Alright, first blog of the century...lawl.
So, yeah, my gallery is like...non-existent as of now, but I'm still trying to see if I can get my materials for my next costume.
I would put up all the pictures of the older cosplay...but they're so amateur. I'd just like to start off new for this site. I dunno, I might make me an old cosplay section in the gallery later. I also need to get decent photos taken for my Chika (Host Club), and Yashamaru (Basilisk) costume. I would take pics of my Amano Zidane, but I think I need to re-work it a bit. ^^'
So what costumes am I planning for AWA 14 (2008)? Well my "challenge" cosplay for this year will be Kishibe Rohan from Jojo's Bizzare Adventure (Part IV)!!! He's such a cool character (and he's a manga artist...like me! lols though I'm not as famous as him XDDD).
Sadly though, I really don't have the finances for cosplay at the moment (I currently don't have a job, because I don't like working during college). So for now, I'd like to do commissions. If anyone is interested, check out my deviantart page for any updates about it:

Hmm so yeah...with this costume (I'm doing the one when Rohan is first introduced...sadly it's the least revealing (for some reason he has outfits showing his belly XDDD; and I'm not skinny enough for those lols). This time I would like to put effort into my outfits and put more functionality along with the aesthetic. If no one knows already, sometimes I cheat on my costumes, lol, meaning that they don't exactly function, even though I look fine (like, either my sleeves can't go up over my head, b/c I sewn it down or the crotch of my pants are limiting my walking ability XDDD; ).
So now I want to use more accurate material (I'm aiming to use actual jacket and vest material for Rohan's outfit instead of the standard cotton that most use for cosplay), and also make it functional as a regular outfit (I might have to put some leeway on the buttons though and make those snaps--I dunno how to make actual buttons yet ^^').
Oh, and at AWA this year, I'll also have a table (er...well...theorectically...I think one of my friends will split a table with me...I think I should try and be sure this time...^^"), so please visit me! I'll be selling some nice trinkets and things and I'll also be doing commissions.
Now I haven't done a table in a while, and I was quite n00b with it before, but now I'm more knowledgable of how the tables work, so what I'm meaning to say is that first I'll have an new set of things to sell and that my prices may be a bit different if you have purchased from me before (I doubt anyone will remember me, I only had tables at MTAC (Middle TN Anime Convention).
I am open to selling and doing commissions online, again, drop me a message here or on DA if you want something, but also realize that my con prices (only on commissions) will be slightly more expensive, only because I'm doing them in such a tight time schedule, so please consider that.
Hmm...well other than that...uh...I dunno..._; meep... oh...and yeah...I dunno...I don't think I have any other costume that I want to do at the moment...uh...except for tee hee...Nero (Devil May Cry 4)...buuuut, that'll be a another time _;
