So I decided to tell all of you about my cosplaying that I do. It will change and hopefully by this time next year, it will have exploded.

So lets begin by listing who I have cosplayed so far:

Aerith/Aeris Gainsborough from Final Fantasy VII
Squall Leonhart from Final Fantasy VIII
Scheska from Fullmetal Alchemist
Nina Einstein from Code Geass
Marluxia from Kingdom Hearts
Xemnas from Kingdom Hearts
Kyrie from Devil May Cry 4
Ise Nanao from Bleach

By far, Marluxia has been the most popular. Which I find to be ironic. But hey, I'm not complaining. I love getting my photo taken by random people.

Now for upcoming cosplays:

Diva from Blood Plus/Blood +
Female America (America from Axis Powers Hetalia)
Lucrecia Crescent from Final Fantasy VII


Yes. I am going to create my own version of a female America. Its quite a bit like America's outfit but slightly different. Just a little more...female. That will be debuted at Anime Milwaukee and maybe even Detour.

Diva and Lucrecia are both for sure for Anime Iowa and if I can manage to get their outfits complete earlier I want to debut one of them at Detour or Anime Milwaukee. It depends on how well I can find the parts of the outfits. Diva's isn't hard, its her white dress with blue ribbon but finding a dress to start with may be the issue. Or finding fabric. Lucrecia won't be too hard, just need a lab coat, and her shirt and skirt.

I have retired a few of them. Only cause I don't want to do them anymore. Like Aeris/Aerith for example. She is everywhere. And in huge numbers. So I am no longer doing her, and the same for Nanao, Sheska and Squall. I still use my FMA military outfit but its more for the Miniskirt Army. No one ever seems to understand that Sheska actually has a skirt in the Anime. Bleach is way too popular and I have lost interest in it and Squall is just too cool for me.

Marluxia probably won't be around much longer as well. He probably will die after Anime Milwaukee...even if I do him there. Xemnas will make his appearance instead of Marluxia. Sadly I wanted to get a Saix wig and be Saix cause he's epic like that but I can't find a wig.

And my cosplays may change depending if I do end up in Hrtznaoplz or somehow the APHWorldConference. I auditioned for Saix, Xion, and Xaldin for Hrtznaoplz but I really don't think I will get any of the three. But you never know and it would be awesome to beceome a member. I plan to audition for America for the APHWorldConference (hence why I am in the process of getting/making America's outfit) but I doubt I will be America. Once again though, who knows? It could happen. But I love America..specially his alien friend.

I really only need a blonde wig for him. And my lack of money doesn't help. I have had to order parts for America's outfit cause we don't have anything like it around here. But I'm excited and very happy.

My next con isn't until March so I have tons of work ahead.

Any suggestions for cosplays? Or conventions? I have a long list of conventions I plan to go to this year. Anime Milwaukee, Detour, QC Anime Zing, Anime Iowa, maybe GeekKon, and maybe DaishoCon. It will be a busy year and I'm very excited.

Hope you had a great holiday season so far! And in case I don't write until late December, have a great holiday season, no matter what you celebrate!

XOXO
