[cosplay] America

[braisinhussy.livejournal.com]

(I hope no one minds a cosplay post.)

Last weekend, inspired by all the Hetalia cosplay I've seen on Cure, I threw together a closet cosplay of America. I do plan making this more accurate, there's a military surplus store near me with a good-ish selection. However, I'm pretty pleased by the results considering most of the pieces were culled from my previous costumes.

I am seriously giddy with the thought of getting a group together for future fun times.


OM NOM NOM ♥ burgers ♥




This is my roommate's motorcycle, it seemed appropriate. Except it's a terribly lightweight Yamaha, which doesn't seem very American. Although you could just look at it as a representation of the friendship between America and Japan? Maybe?


GIANT DORK.

If you are interested in seeing more cosplay of the series but can't be arsed to get a Cure account, there are about 175 pictures in this zip (11.5mb). It's been augmented a bit and slightly better labeled since the last one I posted in furiousmice's post last week. There are well over 2000 pictures on Cure, if you have a login there and want to look yourself.

Also, sorry about this, but I tried signing up for a Cure account but it keeps giving me the error that my userid (which I tried to enter) is invalid. Does that mean someone already took the username, or...?
