LMA - Ryuko Matoi - 20th June 2014
Going to commit to this costume
I fell in love with this outfit as soon as I saw it, I even bought fabric for it but then I convinced myself to put it on hold because it was so difficult. About 6 months after the episode has aired I'm shocked that I haven't found a single cosplay of this costume. The thought of making something this big, and being possibly the first one to do it, is really exciting. If I complete it in time for October Mcm I really want to enter the masquerade. After cosplaying infrequently for years I've always wanted to enter but never thought I'd made anything good enough, but I think I'd feel justified wear this. My main concern is how con appropriate it is, with the spikes attached to the legs and scissor to my arm. I probably won't fit around the con with these on and I don't want to risk poking anyone so I'll talk to mcm staff on the forum and for now I'll make them both detachable. I'm so excited ><
