| Monochrome factor is such an Awesome manga/Anime that me and Purplemintytea love. I've known about it for quite a few years now, but I didn't know quite what it was till this year when the manga and anime came out. PMT wanted to do a Monochrome factor group for the masqurade this year, so I hurridied round to get it done. I really like Akira's costume. I made the coat by buying a Waist coat and using a skirt pattern to add the skirt to the back. I took quite a while to get thsi right and I had to have my sister help sew it round me for shape. The boots I bought were quite expensive, but They worked well. Tehy werea bit too tall which meant my 3 1/4 length trousers looked liek full trousers, but next tiem i will tack the trousers up a bit mroe to look more accurate. The WIg cost me £30, but was great quality. Unfortunatly all the time we spent trying to style the wig was ruined by the wind on the way to the masqurade, so It didn't look quite as great as it should. i really enjoyed making and wearing this costume, and I'm already planning to remake it so it's even better. I was suprised at how many people actually recognised us since it's not been out for that long, but i'm glad we got to do these costume before the mass rush | |

I've been following Monochrome Factor, Akira's costume is cool :D Good luck~
Thankyou XD I really hope that I can get the coat made in time. I was gonna try do it myself, but I couldn't find a pattern. PMT wants me to get the costume done sometime this year.
