TotA: Peony Cosplay

Description

My final thoughts on this cosplay were along the lines of:

"OWWWWW"
"DEAR GOD IT'S FINALLY DONE" (although... not quite >_>;)
"WTF IS WRONG WITH ME?"
"NOTE TO SELF: LAST MINUTE COSPLAYS SUCK"

And other such things. =_=

So, last week was filled was sleepless nights trying to get this costume done. I ended up even staying up until 6 AM Friday night into Saturday morning of the con itself, finishing. And in the very end, I didn't finish his belt. T_T But, it was done ENOUGH where I just didn't care. I gotta finish that belt for ACen though >.>;

This all started maybe right before Anime Punch. I realized I didn't have like, any cosplays planned for Tekko, and so ~kalajessta said she was doing Sakura from "Cardcaptor Sakura" and Guy from "Tales of the Abyss." I thought, "Hey! I've always wanted to cosplay Li! I'm sure I could get that done in a week! No problem!"

And it wasn't much of one. But then I was like, "Man, I wanna cosplay Tales of the Abyss! Who can I do that I wanted to cosplay that shouldn't be *too* hard... ZOMG PEONY PEONY PEONY!"

... It was INSANELY much harder than I thought. Well, at least it was very time-consuming and painful. I started off thinking it'd take me maybe 20-30 hours to do the whole thing. It ended up more like 60-70 (which doesn't count the time it took for the Jade plushie) and like I said, I still haven't finished the belt. (Although I'm praying it won't actually take that long...)

But so, for such reasons, this costume is currently my baby XD I don't know how I manage to accidentally pick elaborate costumes to try and pull three days before a convention, but this one topped my Kanou cosplay on that "WTF WAS I THINKING" list. ^^;

Now, to get over this sickness that my brother gave me so I can continue working on Silabus and Sakubo, because DEAR GOD I WILL NOT LET THIS HAPPEN AGAIN. DX
