[Yunie_chan]

My friends and I are going as Yuna, Rikku, and Paine from FFX-2. We are going to be White Mages and Festival Goers. ^^

[EveofAbyss]

EDIT: Hey Eve of Abyss...if I bring an Angelo plushie can I trade for your gun arm like in your sig? XD

Of course, haha. I was just saying I need to get a live-action enactment of the siggie, lol

[Delphi]

Yay! Now I just have to try and raid my closet again for my build a bear doggie or just get a new one. Considering it's been years since I've seen that doggie I might have to get a new one...>.< But I will have one!

[Mykath]

I'm going to be doing a Zidane cosplay (kind of a mix from dissidia and FFIX).

[Mei Long]

I'll be bringing my Rinoa costume (Hi Irvine! Loved your gun, btw!) and my sister will be trading in her Ellone costume for an Edea costume if we can pull it off in time. Sorceresses unite! And you get a Matron! ...Kind of. 

Anyways we were these two. Just excuse my hair since it refused to behave on the last day of the con. Figures...


EDIT: Hey Eve of Abyss...if I bring an Angelo plushie can I trade for your gun arm like in your sig? XD

Hey there! Thanks much. Man, that gun was such a last minute thing. It was originally gonna be priority (months before sakuracon)... then I volunteered to make joke weapons from Persona 3 and it got pushed back. XD I am remaking it so it is coooompletely accurate and looks better for Kumoricon. *nod* It shall be even more kick-butt!

And AASLJDFKDLAJG!!!!! We get a Matron?!?!? *tears of joy*

[Delphi]

And if my friend can get the time off we may also have a Fujin. It'll be great. She's small but she has a HUGE voice. So beware the RAGE of the Fujin!

Man I'm excited to see everyone again too! I can wait to see all the improvements on everything and now that we all kind of know each other it'll be be even more insanely fun.

Yes, you shall have a matron! This is gonna be one of our last costumes before we head off to college so it's kind of a last hurrah kind of thing. Everyone luvs Maton. 

[nikkiolie]

One of my friends is going to try to go as Genesis. Her hair is perfect for him. It is the right colors and with a lot of gel it can be styled the same way too.

[LtCommanderRichie]

I have original FFVII Yuffie about a quarter done ^_^; But what's done is amazing, so it should be way fun to hang out with you guys! If I get too tired of carting around the Demyx sitar or the Way to the Dawn, or if either costume breaks, I'll replace one or the other with Lucrecia or maybe Gillian. I suddenly have a very needy urge-y thing to cosplay Gillian just so I can hang out with all the Crisis Core people... It's either that or Cloud!

Yay! You must do a Crisis Core cosplay in '09! That is when I am doing Angeal. But as for this year, yay for Yuffie, since I'm gonna be Barret again.

Fujin is AWESOME! O_O Man, this year shall be aaaaaawesome. FF8 shall riiiiiise! I love final fantasy cosplay. XD

[Black~Rose]

Yay I am still aerith and tifa!!
I got color contacts for tifa too so I'll have brown eyes. and a wig (cuz I cut my hair short lol)

But the short hair means that Lucrecia is a no... TT_TT Oh well I be her next year or something when I have long hair agiain.

How are you gonna do Aeris with short hair, but Lucrecia is a no go?

lol I have a wig for aerith but getting a wig for lucrecia is like.. IMPOSSIBLE! Lol

[EveofAbyss]

OooooO, gotcha.

[LtCommanderRichie]

It's not impossible... It's just a styling nightmare that involves foamcore and lots of styling products. And possibly stubbing. And sewing that damned hair wrap on. *Trails off into angry mutterings because her hair wrap always slides off after long periods of time*

Other than that... Original FFVII Yuffie Kisaragi is a GO! Kind of. Oh well, the Materia is what matters, and I have a whole bunch of bright red/orange ones that I'm in the process of naming. But yes. I need to Bondo the metal garter of doom, do the leatherworking for that, find a shirt and shorts, make the headband, find fishnets, do all the armor work for the gloves, make the gloves, find the fishnets for that...

All I really have done are the individual pieces of the giant arm sock of doom. Good news is that I no longer hurt myself with my giant shuriken while doing her little in-battle magic casting jig.

Anybody wants Summon Materia, I'll consider giving them to people at the con. Once upon a time they were decorative resin grapes the perfect size for Materia. Then I got my hands on them.

[Hitokiri Kenshin]

I'll be bringing my Barret with me.

[EveofAbyss]

I'll be bringing my Barret with me.

*gasp*

There's.....another Barret cosplayer? I thought I was the only one. I'm shocked. Stoked to see you, though.

[Black~Rose]

I now have the colord contacts for tifa and the wig is comeing

[Hitokiri Kenshin]

I'll be bringing my Barret with me.

This will be my first Kumoricon.  Did him at Sakuracon this year and last two.  Here's pic:

[Delphi]

Hey! Hitokiri Kenshin? Are you the guy that found me a Squall when I had the sign that said "Lost Squall in Time Compression. Have you seen him? -Rinoa" with the Ellone? (Pretty sure it is you but I have been wrong about these things before!)

Your Squall was a pretty good sport about being drug away from videos games for a joke. XD

[Hitokiri Kenshin]

Yeah that was me. And here's the pics if you haven't seen them:

[Delphi]

Sweet! Thanks!

And thanks for playing along with the joke even if my sister and I were confused about what was going at first. You the first one to actually go find Squall and drag him back instead of pointing so we were wondering why you disappeared.

[Mitsukai Mizu Amaya]

Hmm... I am in the process of a Garnet Til Alexandros XVII cosplay. The dress from the end of the game, complete with - hopefully - the tiger racket. Do I count? =^-^=

[Nayanezgani]

I may do my corsair from Final Fantasy 11 again this year at least a little. Not sure though.

[EveofAbyss]

Yeah, that totally counts. Good luck with the Tiger Racket. Can't wait to see it.

[lin_hikaru_7]

I need to figure out which day will have the most Turks walking around, and which day will be filled with AVALANCHE.

Before Crisis Elena, is a-okay (if I'm lucky someone will known who I am), and with luck and skill and materia original game Yuffie will make an appearance too!

I have a friend whose doing her best to sort out her Sephiroth wig, I think it'll be fine and we'll see her around with her posse of rabid fangirls.

[Black~Rose]

my friend ariel will be a part of that posse fer sure lol

[lin_hikaru_7]

Ehs, warn her that the Pope already married Seph and I two years ago.

She was a Reno then, but still, a hot piece of fangirl bait. Fangirl bait that I shall have to be very protective of.

ariels not THAT kind of fan girl lol the most she'll do is ask for a hug and picture ^_^ no worries

[EveofAbyss]

Well, I just realized I am going to be cosplaying as two characters from FF. Now I have the dilemma of choosing which one to wear to the photoshoot. Oh noes! I like them both!

[Black~Rose]

Pick the one that is least likely to be cosplayed by other people as well, thats why I'm going to the photo shoot as Tifa.. TOO MANY AERITHS!!

[Sugarlat]

Don't forget there's a lot of Tifa's too.
Her first outfit is the easiest to make but the second advent children one is very poplular also.

[Black~Rose]

I didnt see very many last year lol

[EveofAbyss]

I saw at least three Tifas last year, but yeah, it is pretty even between Aeris and Tifa, they both get done a whole lot.

I'll probably do Barret, simply because I don't think many people would recognize Azul, lol. (Pity, nobody plays Dirge of Cerberus T_T )

[veraca]

Well if I knew what time and place this'll be at I'd come!

I'm cosplaying as Lenne, but her boots are a no-go and I can't get her earrings done x_x And her skirt, let's just say remaking it 8 times and still messing up. Least I have the shirt done - doesn't look TOO great - but I'm satisfied with it.

Sewing by hand isn't fun x_x

[lin_hikaru_7]

Last year I forcibly made a buddy cosplay as pre-game Tifa. We have some adorable pics of falling asleep on each other at a pizza parlor.

Sewing by hand? Yuck. I can do it for small, detail work, like mini-plushes, and dolly clothes, but the idea of doing a cosplay as fangled as Lenna by hand, you get kudos, and I hope you have good luck.

[veraca]

It's because we don't have, and are too poor to buy, and I don't know how to work a sewing machine XD;

The skirt's a nightmare. I finish it twice, have to redo it. I finish it a third time, redo again. Finish it more and more and just now I finished it but I sewed it to the wrong side of the waistband and here I am banging my head going "I'm not sewing it again after I just finally got it right! NOOOOO!!!"

[LtCommanderRichie]

You. Azul. Doitnao.

If I'm lucky I'll have one summon Materia left by the end of the weekend. The item menu guy is promised one, Uberwekkness on coscom is promised one 'cause she's another original game Yuffie, lin gets one too because of the Yuffie factor, a couple other people are promised some... I need to get some green decorative resin grapes so I can have magic Materia too.

I need to Bondo my garter and get the leather on it so I can sew it to my pants.

You're probably going to have to find me as Azul at some other point in the con (don't worry, I'll wear it a lot), cause I've decided that Barret would just be all around better recieved and used at the photoshoot.

And I wants materia too! ^_^

[Black~Rose]

Wich looks better?

this wig http://www.cosplaymagic.com/final.html


or my styled wig?

[lin_hikaru_7]

I think I like yours better Rose. The color is more accurate, and it doesn't look like it's made of mohair.

But are the spikes on the wrong side?

[Black~Rose]

nope they are on the right side, my cloud plushie's hair is the same direction so yeah they are acurate my webcam mirrors everything though

[LtCommanderRichie]

I dunno... The cosplaymagic one is a bit too yellow in my opinion.

And don't worry Eve, you get Materia too.

[EveofAbyss]

Yay! Now Barret will be able to heal in battle and won't have to wait for the menu or Aeris! ^_^

Or do many other awesome things depending on what type of materia it is, heh. It's all gravy!

[LtCommanderRichie]

It will more than likely be a Summon if I can't find any green decorative resin grapes. HOWEVER, I'm keeping my Knights of the Round.

[EveofAbyss]

Well yeah, Yuffie must have KoTR, for sure. How else can she defend Wutai?

[LtCommanderRichie]

With Leviathan, of course. I should probably ration my Materia-giving so I can keep KotR and Leviathan. Gotta keep my patron god and everything...

[EveofAbyss]

Yeah, that's only logical. Eventually I want to find out how to make materia and just make a load, enough to give out to everyone, but that is a ways off.

[LtCommanderRichie]

Decorative resin grapes, Mouse sander, 1500-grit sandpaper and car polish. If I see a Genesis Rhapsodos I'm totally giving them one no matter what.

[veraca]

Or if you know someone who knows how to, I bet someone could make them with a glass blower ?
