Forum: Conventions/Cosplay and Merch

i think i can finally pronounce this costume well and truly finished to my satisfaction, now that i've just completely remade the Apron from scratch, the original Apron once being the last remaining element carried over from the original factory costume. now, almost everything's handmade,...

Did anyone go to Orlando Anime Day at the Wyndham on I-drive yesterday?

((MAY, 2015 )) i just got around, -after putting it off for a while now- to picking myself up a secondary spare of this generally under-appreciated 1/6 doll of my favorite female Anime character, Mikuru Asahina of "The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya" fame. my first example of her, i got back around...

or, at least, about as "Casual" as i can imagine Belldandy ever getting, anyway;

i'm beginning to get a bit more courageous about altering this uncommon girl's original faceup now, and i'm really liking what i'm managing to do with her; - NEW - ORIGINAL

i always did love that scene, -however poorly animated- in the late-90's AMG movie where Bell-chan dons a Japanese school Sailor Suit for the briefest moment when searching for some less conspicuous wardrobe out in public; i've been wanting something similar for my 1/6 TAKARA/OBITSU...

Okay everyone, The Halloween Bash was fun and wanted to thank all attendees that came. But unfortunately, the amount that came was much less than anticipated. But, I am not giving up. I would like to try to throw a New Years Anime Event! As many of you are aware, this event was originally...

here's the oldest set of photos i have of my earliest OTAKU/Weeb days, several years before i even had my own actual Internet, in fact, practically Stone-Age compared to how i have things today. without the now-indispensable freedom of worldwide online shopping, i was once forced to satisfy...

http://megaman.wikia.com/wiki/Iris http://haruhi.wikia.com/wiki/Yuki_Nagato hi, i took the free time without online distractions the last couple months to address a project i've had a long time coming. back around 2007, i attempted a crude custom doll, loosely based around the late-90's...

extensive modification/enhancement of the old 2007 Mega House 1/6 Haruhi Suzumiya "Mikuru Asahina" Character doll, a work in progress for a couple years now, i think i finally got things just right;

Hey! I was curious as to what character would suit me best to cosplay. I'm 5 foot 2 inches, and weigh about 96-98 pounds. I'm pretty flat, so boys are okay as well. Someone with a really cool design but not too over the top with a good personality. I've got no clue, I'd really appreciate any...

Anyone heard of this service? I'm subscribed to Crunchyroll and they sent out a $10 off coupon for this service and it looked pretty interesting. Apparently you can subscribe to have a box of Japanese candy (and a drink if you pay more) mailed to your house monthly. They have different box sizes...

Umai Crate is a monthly subscription service run by Japan Crate which I've also posted about here. Japan Crate is a monthly subscription of Japanese Candy. UMAI CRATE is $25/mo. Honetly I prefer Umai Crate over Japan Crate as Ramen lasts a good while and it can actually be a full meal rather...

1/6 scale, 11in./27cm. character doll, custom hybrid of OBITSU corp. doll body mated with late-1990's TAKARA/HOBBY BASE Belldandy doll head;

Following the success of the first Anime Hip Hop Show, I am proud to announce the Sons of Anime will return to Youmacon (Detroit, Michigan) for another year of fun and excitement with this one of a kind performance. With familiar faces, and all new special guests, this year's musical...

a sweet couple, made up of one of my first dolls ever, "Tenchi Masaki" of AIC's 1992 OVA "TENCHI MUYO!" fame, 2001 12" doll by TOYNAMI, and the cherished Queen Bee of my Doll Harem, "Mikuru Asahina" of KYOTO ANIMATION's 2006 T.V. series "The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya" 2007 10"...

Guys, how do you clean the surface of your figurines, other than dust issues? My case, I've tried using an ointment oil to clean the faceplate of my Yotsuba Kotobukiya action figure and it worked like a charm. But, I screwed the paint job (visible but still can be ignored if you're not aware of it)...

Who's going to AniMore convention? I am, and am also really looking forward to it because, believe it or not, it'll be my first anime convention I've been to :biggrin: 3 days of cosplays, music, video games, exhibitors, manga and more! ---------- Post added at 03:57 PM ---------- Previous post...
