    I haven't gotten my costume, I think I'll ask my neighbour to make it, but I'm doing a Touhou cosplay with a friend of mine and her friend (more her friend then mine I only spoke to her once lol).

    I love your costume @cherryghost, was it expensive and costume made?

    i bought it off cosplaymagic.com, 95 euro. i've had the mask altered though, its pretty dire trying to look out from the inside, but the tailors made a mess of it :(

    so either i'll invest in a decent plexiglass one, or go without a mask, which i can bare. :)

    95 euro? that's steep, I remember I bought a lolita dress for the same, STILL haven't worn it (gonna dye it blue, use it for Halloween)
    I think you could go without one, I mean you've spent enough money already yeah? ^^ and those ones are pretty expensive too arn't they?

    i dont think its too expensive to be honest. the material is top notch and everything has been double lined. not a chance of any tear on it! :)

    lol yeah they're expensive alright, 140 euro was the cheapest i've seen it :pac: i got the hair for lelouch, it grows fast, so i'll just dye it black :o so eh might as well go without it! why dont you bring the lolita costume with ya too? you could have like a saturday and sunday costume then :pac:

    Double lined? that's not too bad now you say it, I got a dye in the 2euro shop it's brilliant, you should get it if you see it (I keep dying mine black it's actually brown). I'm turning the Lolita dress into a American Mc Gee's Alice dress for Halloween. I couldn't bring 2 costumes it's alot of hassle over travelling. I was going to do like a lolita Alice but I'm too worried it won't suit me, getting too close to the time too.

    Well if you got the train you can get a taxi outside the door, and write the address down and bring it with you and show it to anyone if you got lost on the way? no? :pac:
    I'm going from Limerick like I'm almost as far as you


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23 Kathileenchen


    I have a better Idea.I wear a necklace with my adresse like a dog tag :P
    It's the train the best altanative or would be the bus a better option?

    If I would travel in Germany I wouldn't be afraid but in a foreig country I am realy afraid.

    But I think about it maybe I will come but I don't know.

    Well if you get your ticket in credit union it's cheap, the bus it about 10 euro each way. The train is over 2 hours 20 mins but the bus is almost 4

    Some people can't learn some things, I think it's one of those things with me.
    I dunno how you'd make it either Ghost.
    Kagome from Inuyasha? yeah I guess it'd be cool, I didn't really like that show though.

    Or I would like to go as Kikyou (from Inuyasha) as well.

    I have seen so much awesome photos from the last Connichi I was realy jealous that I couldn't go.

    I recommend you keep an eye on the eirtakon website www.eirtakon.com. Some people from the committee have done a video presentation showing people which buses to get to the venue and how to get there. It is not up yet but will be soon.
    What's that from? http://nsgstation.com/seth/Unit%2000.gif this it?

    Neon Genesis Evangelion?
