WAYYYYYYY back at Katsucon, my friend Krys and I ran around being Calhoun and Felix.
(I sort of threw this costume together maybe like three weeks before the convention? I painted the hammer the day before haha)
Photos are all by Kevin Chan.
FINALLY PICTURES EXIST OF THIS AHHHHHH
hi how are you i’m the one with the gun.
Here’s another double because these two ladies are a perfect team. (Heads up, you’re getting another team tomorrow. Deal with it.) Also, DaiKatsu’s Lieutenant gets another photo guest appearance. XD
Featured Cosplayers: Ambrosia and Pork Buns
While I’ve only shot with Krys once (one of my favorite characters of all time, Ryoko) I have known her for several years and can safely say she is one of my favorite people. Krys has a great sense of humor, she’s not afraid to be silly, and she always makes me smile. As busy as she is being a scientist by day and an arteest by night (or sometimes the other way around), for me, Krys is kind of the embodiment of “cosplay is for fun”. She has given me advice that has helped me when I needed it, and I honestly really admire her, her work, and her kindness. Her costumes are beautiful, as are her wigs, and I’ve seen her pull some serious MacGyver stuff like turning doilies into a stunning head piece.
I’m actually more than fairly certain that if you put Krys in a cave with Pork Buns and a box of scraps, they would emerge as Iron Man and Pepper Potts.
Speaking of Pork Buns, Tina also does breathtaking things with cosplay. She makes things that look like she somehow walked out of the television, the living character. Seriously, when I first saw her Amon costume, I was stunned. I so admire the fearlessness I have seen in her when it comes to trying new things and expanding her skills. Her attention to detail is stunning, and her love for masks and making them makes me smile. I can never wait to see what she’ll do next. Tina’s sense of humor is fantastic and she is one of the most helpful cosplayers I have ever seen (especially when it comes to her Journey costume and helping people to make their own!). She gave me great advice when I was trying to figure out make-up scars, and I hope one day I might be able to make them as perfectly as she does. While I’ve only taken a couple pictures of her, I hope one day we can shoot together more.

;__________; oh Autumnnnnn thank you so much for featuring my BFF and I and for saying such sweet things about us. You’re the best! <3

Rebloggin’ Nicole’s beautiful photography and Tina’s Internet Famous Amon and my Prom Dress Asami from back in summer when it was hot as fuck and LoK was all anyone cared about WOOP WOOP
HOLY SHIT I HAVE INTERNET BACK AT HOME so here’s AUSA in a nutshell: it was a convention. There. That’s it.
Had a fun time judging as Amon (no makeup? Yes plz) with mah gals Krys and Danielle! Had a Korra come in (she won best of open division on Saturday), she was quite tense as I was looking at her costume. Lots of hang out times, even with judging take up a million hours on Saturday.
Best part of the con was when we left and got the hobbit breakfast at Denny’s.
Srs photos to come!
lol tina jackin my instagram photoz <3
Also I just noticed your shifty eyes in the last picture. Good job. I am proud.

More group photos from the Bollywood Summons shoot! With so many colors I had the crazy idea to line up the cosplayers ROY G BIV style and capture the spectrum. I think it’s one of my favorite group pics!
Reblogging our fantastic photographer Dustin Leitzel, who took these amazing shots of our Bollywood Summons group at Dragon*Con! I’m Siren, the lady in yellow. I had a blast being in this group, designing/creating my costume, and getting the opportunity to pal around with my lovely, sparkling friends!
I was incredibly honored to be invited to shoot this group! The cosplayers each chose a summon from the Final Fantasy games and created Bollywood inspired costumes to represent their summons. Looking at all of these Indian styled costumes I knew we had to get at least one group photo representing the many armed goddess. A little kitsch but I think it turned out spectacularly!
