Description Myself as Lulu and my boyfriend Miles as Wakka from Final Fantasy X. Photo taken by Lionel at Otakon 2008. These costumes were quite the beast to construct and wear - I sewed everything and styled both wigs, Miles constructed his armor, sandals, and blitzball, and they both take roughly 2 hours to get into. D: We've sworn to attempt easier costumes in the future! Lionel did a beautiful job with this shoot; he managed to make a typical handicap ramp look absolutely epic. XD

Please no critiques/criticism. I'd like to keep this gallery happy! <3

OO.... You two look absolutely AMAZING! Not to mention you made the costumes! That's epic! That handicap ramp is epic! XDD The wigs actually look REAL and you're both physically built for the characters. I love it!
Sorry. XD I gush about FFX cosplays (if they're good ones) cause it's one of the only FF games I ever played and I enjoyed it!
I just recently joined a group here on DA called It's for all final fantasy related Cosplayers. (I'm one of a million fucking Renos! ><
But my point is I'd love to invite you and it's your choice to decline or not. It's hard to find a Lulu that LOOKS like a Lulu. XD
And most Wakka's out there look ridiculous. hahaha
You two really look the part!

Thank you for the comment on our wigs, especially! I love wig-styling and I always try to make them look as realistic as I can. I'm glad they passed your test! ^__^

Thanks for joining the group by the way!

Wait, which group? I haven't joined any groups here on DA that I know of, but I've permitted my work to be used in a few of them. ^__^; Still a little leery of this group thing, LOL.

OO Wow. lol That's nice of you though.
Hopefully it gets you more views!
I just created a group with my Wife
Cause we wanted a joint account originally but but figured a group is less time-consuming cause we could submit pre-existing deviations from our galleries instead of uploading them all over again.
It's basically just an account for the both of us to feel closer. We have a bunch of our ReTi pictures there.
And she does awesome edits on photoshop. She's the smart, talented, pretty one. I just cosplay! XD
is our group. We'd love to have another member. Or even just a watcher! XD Currently we have about 23 watchers from our friends lists combined.
It's kinda like our own version of a Reno x Tifa club.
Sorry for the long reply. I just like to brag about things that make me feel smart. XDD

Beyond the realms of human fandom, this makes me think people are either born to play certain people. Or the charecters were invented based on specifi people.
No other two ways about it, I've never met anyone who looked more like Wakka, and the costumes are spot on.
Are they bought?

I make all of the costumes in my gallery. Otherwise, I could not in good conscious call it "art." Thank you for the comment.

They're rare, but they're out there. XP I don't know if I could date someone who DIDN'T enjoy costuming, because it's such an all-consuming hobby for me at times. It's nice to have someone so close that I can talk to about it. Thanks for the comment! <3
