Animazement - cosplay

An anime convention that appears for three days once a year. Although I am no otaku I like to occasionally enjoy some shows and it's weird because sometimes I learn something.

So last year was my first time, I was a total n00b, and went as a typical school girl. The time people started coming I was in shock with their costumes. It was absolutely mind blowing how fantastic some costumes were!

But then you wonder...

How much did this fool spend to make this?

One of my friends who goes all out for this event spent $300. WHAT THE FUCK LA?! That is insane!! Even though she flawlessly pulled it off, some days before Animazement she would tell me how she needed like ten cans of spray paint.

"Oh shit I ran out of spray paint"

"How do I balance this piece off the ground for it to dry?"

"Gawd dammit it fell while drying!"

So I kind've want to not spend a lot of money on this, after all this is a one time event. Maybe two if I use it for Halloween?

So I came up with three low budget ideas:

1. Tifa Lockhart

2. Pikachu


3. Mudkip

I am leaning towards more Pikachu. I think it would suit me best, not to mention my last name is Chu so I grew up with the nickname Pikachu since childhood. I thought Tifa would be cool because it's simplistic but also really hawt. Today I did my make up slightly different and a friend said it resembled Mudkip.

Not really sure yet, but my goal is to look hawt while having fun.







Jar full of hugs,
