Allies Cosplay (with actual guys!) - the other shoots!

[ginnyseta.livejournal.com]

All right, so firstly, I wanted to thank everyone for their wonderful responses to the all male allies cosplay photoshoot. Really, I was honestly nervous when I posted them because I know they were not perfect. But it made me feel so good to know that I am not the only one who cracked up laughing at the photos!

I'm sorry these are so delayed, but I've actually been sick (and still am, ugh, though recovering.) I finally went through and uploaded the other two shoots, where my favorite photographer, naoekun/Jetspectacular, took the pictures! The warning still stands, these are NOT perfect cosplays! There are details that just looking at the photos I wish I could go back and fix, but we were running on a VERY tight schedule and honestly were lucky we got the shots we did. Next time I promise to fix up wigs/details/etc! In the mean time I hope you enjoy the crack!



So first up we have the FrRoChu (+Belarus, lol, sorry guys ^_^*) shoot
France - Jeff
Russia - acrall
China - siefer_sama
Belarus - ginnyseta
Beware of France/Russia, China/Russia, Belarus/Russia, and France hitting on Belarus.





















The last three were edited by Jet! <3!!!!

Next we have the USUK set (plus one America/Belarus which England does not seem to approve of.) These are SUPER cracked out.
America - madgophermm5
England - vartan


















Hope you enjoyed! I do have other shoots and videos from Otakon to post (including about a thousand America/Belarus shots for all.....five of you who like that pairing, LOL.) And I hope to do another male allies group again when I have fixed some of the costume stuff, and we don't have to rush! But that'll be for another day! C'iao!

Yaoi is wrong at this point. Why Ginny...WHYYYY!!!!

[ginnyseta.livejournal.com]

ROFL Yaoi just is never the same with actual penis >D

[destinyshiva.livejournal.com]

Just... cannot... BREATHE.

The USUK shots. Gosh. Hold on, I need tissues. XD.

[ginnyseta.livejournal.com]

Make sure you breathe!!!!

And ROFL yeah the USUK shots are.....special >D

[karinablue-rose.livejournal.com]

I have a question for the guys doing this and please don't take it the wrong way:

Do you think that a guy would want to cosplay with a girl two male characters?The reason why I am asking is I cosplay Japan and I ship America/Japan.I know that most guy cosplayers would not feel comfortable doing a same sex pairing.

[ginnyseta.livejournal.com]

Well, from what I know from my cosplaying guy friends, unless they are really sensitive about the subject, most have zero problems taking yaoi fanservice shots with a girl. Hell, my husband has taken a ton with me. It's usually more difficult to get two guy cosplayers to do yaoi poses than a guy and a guy.

You should always ask politely first before doing any pairing shot, but most guys I've met totally wouldn't mind ;-)

[kittymira.livejournal.com]

So awesome to actually see GUYS do stuff like this ;u; KUDOS TO THEM.

[ginnyseta.livejournal.com]

Yes, they are seriously an awesome bunch! <3!!!

[xiiau.livejournal.com]

oh my god... man cosplayers.. MAN COSPLAYERS ♥ ffff you're really fantastic guys... and omfg :Đ the america, and england... :9 hello handsome guys

[ginnyseta.livejournal.com]

Glad you like! <3333! And yes I totally agree! They are very handsome! =o!!!

[lovelycudy.livejournal.com]

The previous post was epic and this is like, uh, Super Epic. With capitals. I LOL'd in real life. The USUK pics, Lord, they are awesome.

Thank you so much for posting this! And the guys are awesome for doing them!

[ginnyseta.livejournal.com]

I'm really glad you like! Yeah the USUK shoot totally cracks me up every time! They actually did the shoot for me because I was stressed out and wanted some silly, and I am SOOOOOOO grateful that they did. (and that all of them did!)

[rooftop-scenery.livejournal.com]

OH MY GOD AMERICA !!!



Ahah, seriously, this is the BEST America's cosplay I have ever seen !!
Even my bro who hates cosplay said that he was perfect XDD

[ginnyseta.livejournal.com]

LOL, the America is actually already married, but for enough money I might be willing to work something out >DDD!!!! (J/k!!!!)

But yes, I'm glad you like! He worked really hard on the costume, and I think it fits his bodytype/personality.

[whiteangel-chan.livejournal.com]

DAT ENGLAND <3

Ok, my being creepy aside, awesome cosplay, yet again! I'm particularly fond of Russia's kissy faces (and panda stealing) and UK and USA's... well all of that fruitiness, haha

[ginnyseta.livejournal.com]

Dat England indeed >D!

And ROFL, yes, there was much, much fruitiness!!! They really are a great gang.

[ginnyseta.livejournal.com]

<333333! So glad you like! Gotta love the testosterone!

[juggaletpam.livejournal.com]

awesome!!!!!

[ginnyseta.livejournal.com]

<3!!!!

[amberbewildered.livejournal.com]

YOU GUYS ARE SO MANLY ILU

Your America and England photos are hilarious! Awesome cosplay.
You guys should do a billion more photo shoots.

[ginnyseta.livejournal.com]

So glad you like! Yeah the America and England photos did totally crack me up!

I hope we can do at least a few more!

[klahaclone.livejournal.com]

*nearly has a heart attack* MALE COSPLAYERS!?! AS IN ACTUAL MEN!???? EVERYONE KNOWS THEY DON'T EXIST, THE WORLD IS ENDING!

All joking aside, these costumes are really well done and wearers fit the characters in facial expression perfectly. Now whenever I see the Allies, I'm gonna think of them.

Hard to say which one's my favorite, but I think it's england, purely for the mochi stuffie in that one picture (I WANTS it)

[ginnyseta.livejournal.com]

I KNOW THIS CANNOT ACTUALLY EXIST!

I'm so glad you like! The guys really did try to get in character, and I think they succeeded.

And that mochi was made by the incredibly talented skei! I believe she takes commissions!

MEEEEEEEEEN~~!!!!!<3

[friiggi.livejournal.com]

AAH~~~I love your France and England~~ <3 HURR DURR~<3

I will ask them both to marry me and pick that one who isn't married or in a relationship already. ;D

Re: MEEEEEEEEEN~~!!!!!<3

[ginnyseta.livejournal.com]

LOOOOL! I'm so glad you like!

A few of them are still single ;-D

[razcolnicov.livejournal.com]

This is the real stuff. You're my personal godess of Hetalia (male real male) cosplayers. Please ask your friends to do more photos! They are all awesome and dgfhasjdgfhdjfgkgashdfgasdjhkfa Ah, the US/UK... man, what a brilliant couple XD

Thank you~~~~

[ginnyseta.livejournal.com]

ROFL I am so glad you like. And yeah those two are quite a pair >D!

You are very welcome!

[cross-barrette.livejournal.com]

It's so cool to see guys cosplay! And China, why so manry? XD Awesomeness.

[ginnyseta.livejournal.com]

Glad you like! Guys actually cosplay Hetalia more than you think! Just not usually in groups like this.

[barnaby.livejournal.com]

I love you guys, that is all I have to say, don't stop doing what you do ♥


England would you go out with me?

[ginnyseta.livejournal.com]

<33333! Glad you like!!!

[yamanaika.livejournal.com]

I'd kill for that England.

[ginnyseta.livejournal.com]

He one of my favorite people, actually! A great guy.

[lesinfonie.livejournal.com]

These don't look rushed at all! Everyone's costumes look great! :o
Looks like everyone had a lot of fun too. X3
And those USUK photos are awesome. England's "I DISAPPROVE" face in the last one is hilarious. XD

[ginnyseta.livejournal.com]

I'm so glad you like! Yeah there were a few things driving me crazy. Like France doesn't have a belt (lol for easy access) and the wigs could have all been touched up. But the shoots were a lot of fun to do, I wish we had had more time!

And yes, that disapprove picture was taken by accident, but it came out SO hilarious!

[narwhal123.livejournal.com]

MEN.
OMG.
But seriously, guys. Cosplaying. Yaoi.
This is awesome.

[ginnyseta.livejournal.com]

Ha! Glad you like! <3!!!

[akillarian.livejournal.com]

They do really follow your "act gay" instructions :D One of USUK pic looks like it gets censored out because the two guys are too good with the act :D

I see Russia's knives.

[ginnyseta.livejournal.com]

LOL yes! That one blurry photo I thought was funny for that!

And actually, the knives are in my hand! But they were made by my Russia!

[bosscookie.livejournal.com]

Oh wow! Actual guys, awesome! I love the photos of Russia with Belarus~

[ginnyseta.livejournal.com]

Yay! Glad you like! <3!

[momo36.livejournal.com]

Yay more photos! They all look wonderful <3 The France + Russia photos are my favourite 8D

[ginnyseta.livejournal.com]

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed! And those two were SO hilarious with each other!

"The warning still stands, these are NOT perfect cosplays!"

WHO CARES, THERE ARE BOYS IN THEM. *ahem* Once again, you guys (and gal) are so spectacular.

This (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v466/Setaginny/Otakon%202010/IMG_6978.jpg) is my absolute favorite of the bunch. I actually laughed aloud. ♥ And this one (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v466/Setaginny/Otakon%202010/IMG_6576.jpg) looks awesome because of the detail: I know China's wearing a wig, but that looks like real hair actually coming out of his head there. Good job! As for goofiness.... I love how everyone's non-canon jewelry (earrings and rings) make sneaky little appearances here and there. :3

Even if you guys never do this again (I can't imagine how exhausting it must have been), you're all super, and the community loves you. Thank you again for being cool (and I hope you haven't stopped telling your friends to be as awesome as you. The straight ones should appreciate all the chicks waiting for them, lol).

[ginnyseta.livejournal.com]

LOL, BOYS MAKE EVERYTHING BETTER! But I am glad that over all they seem to look okay to everyone's eyes. When I was first going through them I was cursing, because I saw SO many mistakes and things I would have loved to fix, and I wasn't sure how the community would take that. Hell, it is great that you guys are actually like "Hey cool they have earings!" rather than being annoyed that they didn't take them out (which wouldn't have happened.) Some fandoms get REALLY fussy, but I'm glad that this one was able to just sit back and enjoy the crack!

China is wearing a wig! We actually didn't even have time to find him a wig cap, ugh! I'm glad it looked good in these shots, in some of the last ones I wished I could have stuck my hands in the pictures and adjusted it, lol!

I actually do plan on getting them together again outside a convention! My town has a park that has some World War II tanks (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v466/Setaginny/MemorialDay2010/MemWeekend002.jpg) on display, and I think I can convince them to come out for a private shoot (though a different guy friend may do England for that.) It would be nice, because the Otakon one was so rushed and I mean let's face it...5 guys on a tank should lead to some LULz.

But I REEEEEAAAAALLLY appreciate everyone's comments and feedback! it means a ton!!! <3333333

BTW, you run some of the NYC Hetalia meets, ne? One of these days I plan to get to one, so hopefully see you there!
