Cosplay wedding, people do that??

I'm a serious blog reader!  By that, I mean I lurk around various blogs on my Google Reader.  One of my recent favorite blog (out of many) is Rock N' Roll Bride, a British blog dedicated to alternative weddings.  The photography featured on this website is absolutely amazing.  Anyhow, you might ask, how on earth does that even relate to Cosplay?  Well, I came across this article on here that  briefly talks about Cosplay wedding.  No, I'm not talking about Steampunk or Lolita wedding, (Hipster) those are way too mainstream now (/Hipster).  This is LEGIT Cosplay wedding that I'm talking about, one where you dress up as your favorite anime/game characters!  Ha!

I love this Macross cosplay wedding outfit.  The lace is beautiful!

Okay, I'm not completely naive, I know that some of those pictures are just people COSPLAYING a wedding, not actually cosplaying for a wedding.  So I did some more research.  I mean, if a guy is allowed to marry his DS (please refer to THIS article), there must be some brave souls out there having a cosplay wedding.  As a result, I found this epic happening!  A GUNDAM wedding! How cool is that??

Here's a picture for those of you who are too lazy to go to the article.

Then of course, I found more instances of people getting married in cosplay.  This awesome super heroes couple for example, dresses up as...super heroes...duh!

(I'm sorry other blogs that I took pictures from you Q_Q, I know you took it from somewhere else too!)

So, which cosplay would you do if you had to marry in costumes?  Or rather, would you ever do a cosplay wedding?  I don't know about you, but I'm currently liking the FFXII wedding outfits for Ashe and her dead husband!

Now, can someone make this for me??? XD

Mimi

Hey, I want to make a post too~

Mimi and Kathryn have both announced their cosplay plans for Animazement '12, so I guess I'll be a copy cat :3

From the BRS series, I will be doing MZMA (pronounced Mazuma), the second of the Seven Apostles.

Oddly shaped sword, giant hands, non-matching boots, what's not to like? :P

  Since there aren't many pictures of MZMA beside this one, I will be using this video as a reference for any other details.  As for progress, I jumped on Mimi's wig and contacts orders and got a red wig and red contacts. We also bid on a pair of hockey gloves to use as the base for the hands.


From Mirai Nikki, I will be going as Deus Ex Machina, the deteriorating god of time and space.

I'm really liking the hair, and the large chin.

I am planning on, and currently creating, a mask for his face (no human face looks like that).   I have not quite decided what to do for his hair yet, but whatever it is, it will be awesome.  

I am really excited about this year....maybe it's because I will get to carry a huge sword and dress up as a god.  But it also might be that I feel that I will make the transition from Cosplay Noob to Sort of Somewhat Experienced Cosplayer-ish Person.  Also, if we are able to do a skit at the masquerade this year it would be AMAZING, but we'll see how that turns out.

Anyways, I'll keep you guys updated on the mask making for Deus (hopefully ending up with a progress gallery/tutorial).  If Cosplay-Vania reaches to 5000 views, I'll make a little victory composition for us :D.  Thanks Everyone!

Shaman King: Tao Ren

A Chinese shaman who was initially one of Asakura Yo’s most powerful adversaries, Tao Ren is highly confident in his own strength and does not directly accept help from others. His pride, along with his short-temper and impatience often limit his ability as a Shaman. However, after meeting Yo, his strong sense of pride moves towards his ability to protect his friends, and he becomes Yo’s rival in becoming the Shaman King.

I miss watching this anime, and it’s great to see someone cosplay this adorable character. Thanks to Wendy for sending this!

Cosfest X.2 (Day 1, Cosplay Photo Pimps 2 ! )

*EDIT: Updated with more photos below*

I hope you guys liked the 2nd wave of Cosfest X.2 Event photos. See the first batch here.

Do you guys prefer it when I show Event photos in thumbnails like these? I find it hard to talk more about the event itself when I collate my photographs into albums like these even though you guys have feedback that it looks neater this way. Any comments ?
