It happened
that I went blue today and asked Yoki to take some pictures of my latest
cosplay. Meet Na’Gath, a carefree shaman based on World of Warcraft female
troll. The garments are actual item designs in the game… I might have spiced
them up a bit.
Based on
the two hours I wore the costume, I say that this cosplay is rather
comfortable, possibly because I chose a bodysuit over bodypaint. For the face
and neck, which are the parts I had to paint, I used water soluble products
from Grimas. I didn’t fix the paint and I could have concentrated more with the
make-up, but in all it turned out quite well.
It doesn’t show up too well in
the pictures, but I’m wearing a pair the blue fake eyelashes I accidentally found
while looking for some bling to put on the pointy ears.
It’s
possible that my costume will be the only one from the three we’ve been making
that will debut at Tracon. It happened that first we had to drop the show
competition because of unexpected setbacks and last week more followed. One of
our trolls and three other party members might have to skip the occasion, but
it’s quite alright. If we won’t make it to Tracon this year as a group, we will
book another convention for the trolls next year. Thank goodness, there are so
many conventions in Finland nowadays.
But I and
Yoki will be strolling at Tracon in few weeks for sure. Yoki will be portraying
her original character design and possibly dig an older outfit from our costume
crowded closet. For the first time we will swap costumes, as I have been
thinking of wearing Saya Otonashi from Blood+, which Yoki wore at last Desucon.
For the other day, my choice of costume is probably Na’Gath. Altough, based on the expession, Kuura seemed not to appreciate the troll in me.
