Selling my Hayao Miyazaki costumes!
« on: June 03, 2008, 11:12:28 pm »
Hey all, sorry for the shameless self-promotion, but it turns out that I won't be going to kumoricon this year because I'm getting rid of all my worldly possessions and going on a ritual journey across the states and back, then south to Argentina. So I'm selling my costumes.
-Lord Yupa from Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind. This costume is several years old, and quite rugged, still in excellent shape, with prop swords and the spore mask. I've never seen another Lord Yupa around. I attended last Kumoricon, and this year's Sakuracon, wearing it.
-Noface, from Spirited Away. This costume needs a little bit of touch-up work, as it's new and just barely finished in time for last Sakuracon, but I wore it to the con anyways, and got a simply staggering amount of attention. My friends made me take my helmet off when we were trying to get somewhere, because otherwise it would take us hours to reach our destination. I must have gotten over a hundred pictures taken of me in this costume. It's sized to fit me (6" 1', 200 lbs) precisely, might take a little bit of modification if you're a significantly different size. The mask could use a little bit of touch-up paint in the very center where it rolled over onto a wash cloth when an undercoat was still wet and it took an imprint. Overall it doesn't spoil the effect.

I'm asking 200 for the Lord Yupa cosplay, and 120 for Noface, which was a good deal simpler. I will consider other offers based on how many people would be interested in buying. If you live in the Portland area, I'm happy to set up a time to meet to show off the costumes. Emailing me is the best way to get in touch. Thanks!

have safe and enjoyable travels
And now I'm a catgirl?

The voice of the one I love
was all I could hear as I lay broken in the darkness
My own voice faltered
My wings no longer had the strength to fly
