Tobi and I both went to Kumori Con in 2008 but it was only a repeat of our chocobo and moogle.
This first day was all Girl Genius Cosplay. A wonderful webcomic by Phil and Kaja Foglio that you can check out here...
I played around making a more flamboyant costume. This also was a beginning point for my thesis character Blush. You'll see this wig growing and changing when her card comes up later. It was fun flirting with her creator Phil hehe!
This is the man character but has a hilarious story behind it! Our Girl Genius OR cosplayers (we declare ourselves the WA group) did a dating skit afterward there was a major photo op. They put all the Agathas together with the girl cosplaying the love interest Gil. I have to give my sister props for coming up with doing that face! The little girl that thinks the boys icky.
Tobi was the first (that we know of) Jenka cosplay. One reason this character isn't done as much is because Phil kept changing her clothes from panel to panel not stuck on what she wears yet! It was quite the trial deciding what to do for this one and everyone loved having at Jenka there!
She even had a Fust.. the bear on her head that in the comic is big and she rides. Soo we said our Agatha accidentally shrunk Fust down with her shrink ray.
Hannah was part of Da Boyz that Jenka is in charge of. Oh and those teeth were an interesting thing. Hannah and Shawna got really good at speaking with them in. They tasted awful though so I've heard.
This was also the year that thankfully we got Final Seal for our body paint and it worked really well! I think my favorite part of Shawna's Oggie was the two toed feet.
