| Wore this at May expo 2010. i really enjoyed cosplaying lightning. Her character is so interesting and admirable although her outfit is really uncomfortable to wear, the thing that mostly got on my nervous was the bag she has on her leg, Ever tried running with one on? very hard and uncomfortable. All in all, i love her character and always will, fully enjoyed cosplaying her at expo and around my home town with serah. | |

Shoulder pad. (Posted 4th October 2010) I made this out of poly-filler and fibre glass then sanded it down into shape. Also once you apply the resin to the fibre glass it becomes really hot so make sure you use someone elses shoulder with padding other it or a mannequin. I already burn myself doing this 3 times ¬_¬. These photos are without the shape added to it. |
|
Boots (Posted 4th October 2010) Made these boots for exp(AGES AGO BUT DIDN'T PUT PROGRESS UP) i haven't got much progress anymore as my camera smashed and i lost some photos fml, but i'll upload the ones i have. These were a normal pare of black boots and i just put the shape out and stuff. They weren't finished here, they needed to be sewin and some bits of things added. |
|
Under the jacket (Posted 27th July 2010) Quick shoot of under the jacket. Sewing is rubbish on the shirt but it'll have to do |
|
Skirt (Remake) (Posted 20th July 2010) Remade the skirt. the other one the zips were straight down and lightnings isn't like that >_< it looks a tad see though but its not when you see it, that's just because off the lighting in my passage ^_^ |
|
Restyled wig~ (Posted 9th July 2010) This wasn't as easy a i though, but i was flicking though my photos and realized my wig was styled really shitty so i decided to restyle it. I've cut some more layers into it and the side bit that hands down over her shoulder i've put the curls it. She doesn't have tight curls, only loose ones. You could even get away with it just being wavy. Also her hair is wind swept to one side to make it messy looking (Hence why the spikes are there) Over all i'm quiet proud of something for once ; } |

That is crazy talk young female. I find you Hngggg-able... and uhh.... you can't... I dunno...
What i say goes. Yeah :3
Excuse me? Haha thank you?
Why no problem ^w^ Getting my stamp of "HNGG" is a comendable feat.
It translates into me thinking that you look very good in that costume XD
Ah right haa. Yeah i had to ask a friend what that meant. Thank you very much.
I jsut wanted to be creative >w>
I figured since you had like 80+ "Wow you look so good! :)" comments I wanted to be original! :3
Hahah too true. I like your creativity, well done haha.
Thank you for the comment though, was a surprise to have a different comment. :)
i still love your lightning, but to let you know someone on ebay from china is using one of your photos as their costume work to sell a lightning cosplay. Not sure if you know, but i thought i'd say something anyway.
Yeah thank phoenix.
And yeah i know, i've contacted them and stuff but they wont reply =/
Annoyed me quiet a bit.
oh good! Glad you know about it!
This is awesome! Thank you for wishing me luck on mine xx
Waaah *A*
Very good Lightning!
This cosplay really suits you!! You look amazing <3
Thank you rayi. Your vanille really suited you ~!
There were so many Lightnings in May I that I don't know who's who! But my word! Fantastic. Love it.
beautiful cosplay *A*
Awesome! :D
oh wow!!You're a perfect lightning.Everything is so well done.
I love the photos!
I think your Lightning is amazing =3
And some of those shots look absolutely amazing too, like they come straight from the game
I may be a little in love with this cosplay, m'sorry
i know that this is very, very......verryyyyy late to say and i know you proberly dont think so but you look fantastic as lightning^^
oh my, You are awesome Light! :D I love how You style the wig :D
sweet! ^_^ you make an awsome lightning and you look fab in these photos :)
Again, stunning. You're so clever in the characters you pick, they all suit you so well, though that may be to do with all FF characters have the same face model. You should totally cosplay Gackt, you'd well pull it off brilliantly. :D
Ahh, you look so perfect! Thanks for your comment on my Harley as well, you're such an amazing cosplayer so it means a lot!
How the hell do you make these costumes? Major jelly
