Description If you've been wondering what I've been up to lately: Well, here is part of my progress.

I finally put on the makeup I ordered for Yorda. The first time I did so I looked like a creepy vampire so there were no photos. This time I'm rather happy with it.

I'm going for really pale rather than white.

And I'll probably have to cut the wig a little more.

By the way, you can see my freaky pupil in the left picture

EDIT: I added progress pictures because unfortunately I won't be able to finish this costume by the date I have to. There are simply too many things left to do cosplay wise. That and a writing seminar I organized and that I have to prepare material for - and take part in, of course. I hope I'll be able to finish and wear it some time this year because I really really love Yorda.

EDIT II: Here is a gallery with pictures of the finished costume: [link]

Your Yorda costume is just awesome. You're the best Yorda I have seen, I like how you made every little detail of her dress just like her!!

What color is the wig?

It's a light grey which I originally ordered for a different costume. I have, however, also seen darker wigs or brown/blonde/grey ones. It's not that easy to tell exactly which color her hair is.

I really am just going to just get a light brown then baby powder it some lighter.

Wow, that's nice! Once more, the wig and the ears fit perfectly to your face so that you achieve a natural (albeit pale ) look! When do you plan to wear it?

Thanks a lot, that's the look I was going for.
Unfortunately I won't be able to finish it for Connichi so maybe I'll wear it on Halloween or some small event.

Sadly, I won't be at this year's Connichi. Well, I hope I have the chance to see you as Yorda at some other con then.

Sometimes I'm in Frankfurt if there are any meetings. Anyway, I'll probably wear it to a big convention next year again.

It matches the shirt!
My pupils go freaky in the other direction.

That's actually a coincidence but I noticed that as well.

How are your pupils freaky?

Things like that tend to work out well. If only they happened more often.

Mine fully dilate at night, no iris shows at all. It goes straight from pupil to cornea.

Yeah

Wow, now that's creepy.

It freaks people out. I wonder if there are any contacts that do that...

MarlinGrey In reply to Death-Pony7 [2010-08-31 18:53:13 +0000 UTC]

I'm pretty sure there are. I've seen white ones that cover your iris and I think I've seen black ones as well.

Just using one white lens in one would look awesome!

That seems to be the place to find all the weird stuff these days.
