Goodness! Well here it is, my Kuja cosplay, one of my dream cosplays~ (I've always wanted to cosplay him~!)
I must repeat! REPEAT! This is not even a finished costume! o(x_x)o

I didn't get to finish in time with nearly all the detail I wanted to put into this costume. (This is pretty much the basic construction I did for it. There's still more detail I'm putting into it.)

So by basic standards, it's finished, but to me, there's still a lot more I'm going to be added. So to me it's still a WIP.

I had a tiny photoshoot with :iconmiseryxisxlove:. It was so hot at the convention and by the time we had time for this tiny shoot, I was exhausted, she was exhausted and so we just took a few shots here and there. Though this one is one of my favorite.

No, me floating isn't a work of photoshop. The orbs yes, but the floating isn't. It's the kind of shoes I used that have clear soles and in certain lighting and positioning, it really does look like I'm floating without the magic of photoshop. Pretty neat eh?

Just something different I wanted to do and considering Kuja barely touches the ground in the Dissidia game.

Orbs were added by photoshop.

I really can't wait for the next convention to wear this costume. I will be having a more extensive photoshoot with this costume with several photographers. (Once it's more completed.) And yes, yes, I know the metal strap on the chest is slanted the wrong way. It took me over 3 hours to get into this costume. So yes, by the time it was time to put that part, I just simply put it on. It'll be corrected in the next shoot I promise! ><!

For now enjoy these photos of my work! Thank you! ><

And it wouldn't have been possible to put on if it weren't for :iconrockinichigo:, :iconkohaku-in-chaos:, and :iconmiseryxisxlove:. Thank you so much for all your help and being my helpers and bodyguards~! You guys kick major butt! :heart:

Thanks to :iconmiseryxisxlove: for being the talent behind the lense~ :heart:

Ah I think I saw you there. I actually asked you if those shoes hurt..

I hope that didn't come across as rude.. x:

And I'm planning on going next year too, I'd love to see how this turns out next year

Lol~! I've been asked that quit a lot in those shoes.
Thankfully I have gel insoles in them and I take
some painkillers. So I can last quite a while in them.
Strong legs help too!

But it's not rude at all!

Going to next Akon??
