Ha, yeah, i guess that's how I spent my con too. ^__^ How pizza got turned into Eva I still baffles me. XD heh, that pizza was really good too. God...thanks for the GG picture you drew for us. I still need to scan it for you. You gotta put it up on your account. XDXD

you're more than welcome! ^3^ the source material was too funny not to put on paper. Of course it could have been better with photoshop tweaking and my endless post production process, but there's something to be said about gag drawings being whipped out on the spot ^__^

And you did a fabulous job of stuffing her into it.

Would have been cooler if it was Dizzy from 100 Bullets... 
So who is this Dizzy character?

haha, what's 100 Bullets? This particular Dizzy is from a fighting game called Guilty Gear. It's got some of the weirdest characters, but their costumes are just alot of fun to cosplay. She had lots of fun prancing around the con like that. ^__^ Plus she had her husband making extra sure she wasn't falling out. XD

Her husband was probably giving a lot of dirty looks as well... So anyway, the above link is 100 bullets. The latino girl with the teardrop tattoo is Isabelle "Dizzy" Cordova. I love this book. If you ever get a chance to flip through a 100 Bullets TPB at a comic shop or anything, check out Risso's artwork. It's very simplistic, but he's the best visual storyteller I've ever seen. He uses unique perspectives and his backgrounds are as integral as the characters in his panels. Not sure if you'd be into the story or not, but the artwork is definitely worth a look-see.

Seeing stuff like this makes me realize how far I really have to go. This looks really interesting, and I think next time I find myself in the comic store I'll look for it. Thanks alot for the recommendation. XD (Though I dunno if an anime convention will allow costumes from American comics. I know they've shoed away some Star Wars cosplayers before...)

The pacing is very methodical... there are a lot of twists and turns and it's hard to tell who's on who's side. It's like a crime/mystery/drama type thing... If you like that kinda stuff, you should love 100 Bullets. If you don't, you'll at least be able to appreciate flipping through the art.

Very nice picture, and a very well done costume. But wouldn't she be a tad bit cold with so much skin showing, especially when they had the air conditioning on in the hotel nearly 24/7?

Nah, you'd be surprised. Walking around in heels is a work out unto itself. Posing for pictures is an entirely differant story. She didn't complain about the weather, so I'm sure she was fine. (plus vinyl doesn't breathe all that well. XDXD)

Well, at least she had fun. (And I didn't know about the vinyl thing; guess it goes with being a guy, huh?)
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah...not enough guys where vinyl in my opinion. XD

I don't know much about clothing, but isn't vinyl fairly constricting of movement?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
heh, yeah. especially if you're a guy. ^__^

Ha thanks! You know, I was gonna post the one of her and her husband, but he wouldnt' smile for the camera. Infact, he looked just downright mopey and a little scary. With a wife like that, you'd think he'd be a little more giddy, right?
