I’ve made a few costumes, and worn them them to a few cons. Looks like she could unbutton the shirt, undo the belt buckle and pants, and basically take the whole thing off down to the upper thighs. Like you would a jumpsuit with a front zipper.

Hopefully she at least has a hotel room nearby, because doing that in a public restroom could get harrowing lol

Thanks! And the Imperial office on the left in the scooter, and someone in a Winter Soldier(?) cosplay upstairs. That’s one of my favorite things about “hallway” convention shots vs. organized photo shoots—you get to see an eclectic mix of fandoms and a taste for the feel of the con. Makes it all feel more alive.

There were soooo many Vashes at DragonCon! I’m not familiar with the manga/anime, but it’s pretty cool and intriguing that the character is so popular after having been introduced so long ago.

Appreciate it! My sewing still sucks, but you can’t tell unless you’re up close. And I wasn’t convinced the guitar would look right until it was like 90% done

Looks great! Is the hat like a pastel green? Did you find a hat already in the right green? Or paint an existing hat? Or make it from scratch?

Yeah I like making costumes. It’s creative, hands-on, it gets me away from a screen (3D modeling aside), and it still intersects with my nerdy interests like video games or sci-fi and fantasy worlds.

And as a bonus, I get to wear it to nerdy costume parties when it’s done!

Oh this was at DragonCon 2023!

Edit: Oh dang never mind, I see dtjaaaam’s 2017 watermark. Well this costume was at 2023 also haha
