Stop struggling shrimp! We're getting out of here!

This costume is my pride and joy! This isn't even the most recent picture of it! I made everything you can see, except the pants. The boots are heavily modified combat boots, the red jacket was made from a pattern in a Japanese cosplay magazine. The black jacket is a heavily modified woman's jacket pattern. (I had to take the darts out... so hard..) I drafted up the black t-shirt so the neck would be where I wanted it. I made the gloves so they would have the signature edge that you see in the artwork, and also so they would fit my tiny hands. The clasp is made from sculpy and attached with four hat pins, and the belt is hand made from real leather that I dyed myself. I also styled the wig myself. I'm not sure if you can really see in this picture, but I have yellow custom contact as well.

I also made Roy and Riza's costumes. They are my friends Xan and Vazor. Making the patterns took the longest time. The fabric is a wool blend, and the belt and the front thicker grey sections are made from leather.

You're definitely one of the best Edward Elrics I've seen at Sakura-Con. Here's a couple photos of you at the con: [link] [link]

I have several others I haven't uploaded to flickr yet. Dunno if I will, though - I don't want to overload the set on Flickr. :)

This is a random question:

When I complete Volume 1 of my graphic novel and start publishing it, and you like it, would you end up cosplaying as one of the characters in it next year?

Just wondering.

I'm pretty full up on planned projects for the next few years, and I really only play characters that I personally love and am into. Good luck on your novel, though!
