Artist's Comments

Thank you for viewing this!! Please note that I have actually upgraded this costume to the ARTBOOK version (so yes, MORE BLING!!) If you'd like to see a collage of that, please view this deviation::

This is a summary shot of my outfit only. MANY MORE photos were taken in a more stylistic way during the Trinity Blood photoshoot at the Expo.

For more photos, visit my livejournal entry: [link]

This version is from the Manga - so it's halfway between the Artbook and the Anime ^_^

It's a small pic, but it shows roughly the whole oufit. I must admit I bought the base robe/cape(I was too busy to make up the entire thing myself!) but it was then heaviliy customised and altered, then the stole/scarf, all the accessories, arrow clips, dog collar, rosary, armour, armband, ear cuff/spectacle chain, gloves, etc. etc. was made or customised by me. Belts, combat boots, and replica gun were very cleverly sourced from various locations, ohohoho. The hair is my own, it's actually bum length XD but sprayed silver. The photos are from a big shoot this Sunday at the London MCM Expo, taken by the lovely Fez, who is an amazing cosplayer.

Apologies for it not being totally perfect, I actually had the leg armour but couldn't strap it on in time for the shoot, and I had silver/blue contacts the day before, but my eyes were killing me by Sunday XD

For a closeup shot of the accessories (arrow clips, rosary), please look at this deviation:

You looked amazing, even better in person - So glad I got a snap with you! =3 The details/props are fantastic.

What was wierd was that after talking to you about crossplaying I found the MAN-Misa O.o
... Yay crossplay!

Serious admiration for all the effort that went into that - dying your own hair especially, and all the glueing/re-glueing things onto the costume! I saw the guy on Sweatdrop busy at work on Saturday, bless him :giggle:

It came out really well considering you haven't Cosplayed for a while (Can't remember where I read that, oh well) Still it was an awesome costume, shame I haven't seen trinity blood yet. Then I could of understood the costume more :P

Thank you very much!! Hehe, yeah, I spent all night on Friday getting all those blasted arrow clips onto the damn clothing, 6.30am in the morning by the time I was done, and I was also assigned the morning shift at the Sweatdrop stand, so I got like 30mins sleep XDDD that was my fourth all-nighter in the space of a month, I'm too old for this, I'm gonna get grey hair for real, haha!!

Haha, don't worry, I'll make up for it by posting up some photos of my Gothic/Lolita photoshoots to firmly re-establish my femininity XDDD I even had to wear a tight sports bra to bring my C-cups down to flat XDD

Thank you so much for your lovely compliments. Yes, the last time I cosplayed was back in 2001, and I actually came best in show back then at a convention in Liverpool ^_^ this has spurred me to try my hand at it again though, when I have any spare time T_T

Thank you very much! Yes, it's been seven years XDDD

Ah, careful when watching TB the anime, the costume is actually much simpler in the anime than in the manga or the original artwork in the light novels. My version is from the manga.

I had actually sewn the arrows onto the costume, but the thread I was used a nylon monofilament that was supposed to blend with any colour, but it turned out to be very susceptible to snapping once knotted T_T hence why in the end I had to turn to super glue. I was kicking myself as I realised that had I just stuck to super glue in the first place, it would have been fine and I could have gotten more than 30mins sleep on friday night XDDD

Aww, my hubby/wardrobe assistant was sooooo helpful!!
