Well, I promised pictures...and just now got around to delivering. XD Someday, I will wear my costume again and take some decent photos. Until that day comes, um...here goes.
This was my first time making my own costume for anything. I had a lot to learn to make it, and am still learning a lot.
I made all the elements of the costume except the wig, the headband, and the legwarmers. The first two were bought; The legwarmers were made by =
Tissue-IssuesThe vest was obviously the most trying, but whatever. It was also the best part, I think. I really wanted the snaps to work on the shoulder parts, but alas, Fate was against me. Overall, I liked it.
I nearly died from the heat...though.
In my excitement to get the armwraps and legwrap on, I put it on the wrong leg at first. Oh, dyslexia! I did not realize my mistake until later, when the camera was away...Oh well.
(My youthful thumbs-up is marred by a band-aid...because I literally sliced my thumb open during preview night and bled insanely all over my stuff.)
I do not know this Gaara, but she was kind enough to fight me. XD Anyway, I forgot to close my vest clips...serves me right for buying something (the vest held my wallet and phone).
Anyway, so that was my adventure at SD Comic Con. Not much to say, other than the costumes were rushed at the end, and we kind of were short on time and Neji lost interest in her costume so it never did get completely finished (close, but no cigar). Maybe another time.
I'm a fan.
I'm an artist.
I don't count pageviews, faves, or comments.
I don't draw to be popular; I draw because I like it.
I draw what I want. I draw how I want.
I don't care if it's en vogue, passé, or just
is.
So, if you want to hate on art or artists...
Please go elsewhere and don't bitch at me.

Just needed a new journal, that's all.
