Because i'm a big fat geek and I know it...

[secondlina]

Well, I was going through my props and costumes today because I am starting a photo project about fairy tales (aka, I get to dress people up! Squee!)

And I found a few things that made me think of Renge. So guess what I did?

Yes, that's right. I took a break from my pile of work to go cosplay Renge.

I'm such a geek.

The photos turned out very nice though! I love the hair! ^^ I think I imitated well the positions and attitude I imagined for the character.
And for those who wonder: I forgot to write it down but Renge DOES wear glasses. But only to read.

I kinda wanna make icons from these. But I suck at iconing.

p.s. why is it the photos where I actually look cool, i'm dressed up? *sigh* Why am I not pretty as myself --_--



Peace out.


Fireball, bitch!



Looking up and pretty!



Renge, the sad mage.


Casting a spell! (I swear I did not tweak this with photoshop...It's the flash reflection. Looks cool though!)

The last photo really does look very cool. Kind of eerie with the eyes, which adds to it.

So, who are your intended victims when you dress up folks for your fairy tales?

*imagines possible scenario*

LINK: You want me to be what??
ISA: *shakes Peter Pan costume* It won't be on for long (trust me.) Besides, I have it on good faith that you'll look damn good in tights!
LINK: ... Can I have the Jack Sprarrow costume back?

They're cool, but that last one is really creeping me out!!! It's like you have no eyes, or you have ghost eyes are something. It's scary!!!

I'd give the icons a go but I'm sure there are others who will do a much better job then I could ever do.

I'm more for the natural look myself, so I think you look just fine with your natural hair (not color since I know you experiment a lot :)). I don't know if anyone can really ever truly look at themselves and like what they see. I know I'm not as pretty as some. But oh well. It's the inner beauty that counts!

The cosplay looks awesome, by the way. I'm sure I'd have no trouble cosplaying as Victoria since most clothes made for "normal" people are too big for me anyway. XP (As it is, I'm trapped in Idaho with nothing to even attempt to.)

Whoa! behold the amazing mighty power of the stunning frightening last photo, it also looks like you have some scars just below your (closed) eyes, and the gazing ones seems to be looking so deep.... it's really... an interesting effect.

Thinking you're looking cool while cosplaying and normal otherwise? people usually doesn't fully like themselves, I think is more about finding the right theme or light or mood or inspiration, why the obssession with the "I'm not pretty enough" these days? As ichiban_victory said "It's the inner beauty that counts!", because, what's the prettiness? (sorry, I'm kinda sleepy...)

I like "the looking up and pretty" one.

Congradulation... You were able to catch yourself in the middle of blinking. There's only like two 24th of a second per blink where you can get that sort of picture...
small window of oppertunity... hard to catch....
is... kinda fun.... and sort of... cool...
I'll stop talking now. :(

Seriously though... that is a pretty cool effect you where able to catch.

And you got someone to take those pictures didnt you.... oddly enough though, your left arm is always cut off.
Anyways.
Keep up the good work and I'll be looking forward to seeing you here.
Bye
