A Cosplay interview with Taiga (Tora Dora)

Following my last Cosplay Interview with reifes88 and his Iron Tager, I have another TIGER to introduce to everyone in the year of the METAL TIGER (Chinese horoscope) !!!!Yes, its everyone male Otaku’s favourite animal girl; Taiga Aisaka !! Blehhh I suck so much at interviewing. I promise I’ll do better next time T_TI met KuroHoshi’s Taiga at the GCA event last year and she totally owned the crowd! Whenever she starts posing a wall of photographer appears xDKuroHoshi was really cute and natural when I interacted with her, MOE much! Her love for the character shows through even though she didn’t make the costume herself but its clear she really loved Taiga and knew the character inside out.   How can anyone resist her???? Check out her...

Just Be Friends Cosplay PV ( Production Diary )

Hi Peeps!I’m back again with something related to JBF. I know you guys must be so tired of me/us with the same serie/song again. But please bear with me alright ^^?So, I was very inspired by the Production Diaries Peter Jackson did for the KongisKing.net fansite and halfway through the post production of JBF. I decided to keep some simple sort of diary to chronicle this very long and arduous journey and started writing twitter style emails and blogs to myself and have complied them below. Click on the link to read more =)The teal coloured words are written AFTERWARDS to fill in the blank period where I had forgotten to chronicle. And as can be seen from the start date, I did these diaries very late into production …much apologies ^^;; I have...

OTACOOL 2 DRAMU?

Again, I am so late on this. Pals around me has been talking about it but it just flew past my head because I always seem to catch up on Dramus late. Much lates. So a while ago, I was googling for some reviews on OTACOOL 1 and accidentally came upon this page (had wanted to find some example scans or reviews of OTACOOL 1 so I can decide whether I wanna buy OTACOOL 2 or not) Which I pimped to another friend on MSN and she in turn pimped me another blog entry of the same topic.  Which then finally directed me to Mr. Danny Choo’s Q & A entry. What a series of link @_@ ;;; How do I begin this *mutters to self*? Well, as we all know. There has been a  lot of dramas going on surrounding this OTACOOL project (as expected). And after...

Cosplay Photo of the day: Love

I can’t believe I didn’t think of this earlier! We’re in the month of february and I think its time this blog pays tribute to the very power that makes the world goes round; Love.   Megurine Luka and Kagamine Len by Love-Squad and Yond Absolutely love to this picture! The colours are so vibrant but it still carry that sombre and forbidden ambience! Probably due to the large area of ‘black’ and how the edit dimmed the edges and made your eyes focus on just the cosplayers. Lovely pose, great wig styling ( luka’s curls *_*) and of course pretty headphones! Luka X Len is also a pretty unexpected pairing :D   “When first love ends” Hatsune Miku and Kaito Anima by Sakana and Xrystal I like how they managed to turn tropical...

New cosplay debute- Snowtrooper

Finished! Well, almost... but atleast it's wearable! We finished the costume eight hours before it was to be worn by Yoki. We dropped the backpack from this first version, but I think that Snowtrooper from Star Wars series is making an impact even without it. When we manage to finish my costume all the missing objects will be done... and also some adjustments for Yoki's armor. There were casualties. Yes, there were... Yoki might post about them, because I witnessed only some of them.So this is the huge project we have been battling with three months. Some armor making changes occured during the construction. We planned doing the armor parts from fiberglass but ended up doing them from PETG plastic using vacuum forming method. It was new for...

Just Be Friends Behind the Scenes Part 2

Ok, I've been seating on this long enough and the Chinese New Year mood is subsiding so time to write! I'm sorry this might be somewhat a duplicate of reiko's entry. But I'll try my best to write about things she didn't mention. Okay so, maybe a little about how the project started. Before this, I wasn't exactly a vocaloid fan. The songs I heard previously didn't quite impress me very much. One fine day, reiko was going about her usual 'vocaloid pimping' thing on msn (think she was trying to convince me to do kagamine rin with her xD). And JBF was one of the songs she showed me, boy was I blown away. One of the things that can touch me the most is music. After watching the pv with the english translation I just felt I wanted to do something!...
