Zero @ Expo (Posted 18th June 2010)

And so May rolled around and myself and EmilyMai22 launched ourselves fully into the Cosplay-madness on the Saturday, Vampire Knight as our day 1 cosplay.
Zero was comfortable to wear, was really annoyed that I had to do it all without the jacket.. so I was less recognised. But was very fun.
I really loved having the tattoo on my neck, helped me to stand out.
The violet contacts gave me no problems at all during the day which I was very happy for.
I think the only down sides of Zero was that his wig wasn't as nice or as well finished as I'd hoped it would be, though that can laways be rectified and I need to figure out a better way/kind of pen for drawing Zero's tattoo.. my white shirt collar was not so white by the end of it all.

The Progress So Far... (Posted 12th May 2010)

Well.. I've got the shirt and trousers sorted.
The wig is (touch wood) in the post, and I've got my compression shirt already, and stitched a skin-coloured vest so it doesn't show through the shirt which took me aaages (meaning about.. 2 hours)
Hopefully my Bloody Rose gun is also on its way (fingers crossed it arrives in time)
And I've got some contacts all ready for this cosplay, so now all that's pretty much left is sorting out a stencil for his tattoo and then styling and cutting the wig once it arrives, then I think thats pretty much it.

I don't have the uniform jacket yet.. but I'm still debating weither to buy one or not.. probably gonna depend on how much I enjoy the character (which I'm already excited about)
