I will be attending my first Sakura-con this coming weekend in Seattle, Washington! While there, I will be participating in the Aniplex events promoting Fate/Zero with American Cosplay Paradise. Read on for details!
With so many new people coming into the cosplay hobby, and an upswing in fraudulent listings and shady sellers, I felt compelled to make a guide on how to be a smart buyer. Buying smart and avoiding scams is a big part of enjoying cosplay. No one wants to waste money and feel swindled when trying to create the look of a character you love. I’ve also included a list of wig sellers I’ve bought from, and give you an honest review of each- the good and the bad.
I’ve been working hard on the weekends to finish up several costumes for the upcoming convention season. I’m feeling glad I decided to focus on making Saber’s Fate/Zero Suit since I’ve been ‘summoned’ by ACP to participate in their team up with Aniplex for events at Sakuracon.
I’m giving away a free copy of the Limited Edition Fate/Extra for PSP on my facebook page! To enter, post on this picture with the comment ‘GAO!’ I’m looking to hear your best Saber Lion impressions! Contest ends February 10th. Winner will be selected at random. International entries are welcome but please only enter if you have an address within the continental US that I can ship to. Lion not included ^_^ He’s just cheerleading~
I haven’t been great at posting work in progress here so I’m going to make an effort to be better about sharing my process for those interested. For staters, here’s some old progress shots on several costumes I have in the works- Saber Alter, Red Riding Hood Miku, and Saber’s Ataraxia brown dress.
Hey everyone! I just wanted to let anyone linking to this site know that my link has changed. Linking to http://www.maridah.com/blog/ will no longer link to my homepage. Please make it http://www.maridah.com/ This change is permanent ~ I’ve moved my directory, so links to /blog/ won’t find my homepage anymore. Thanks for understanding! This site is undergoing some major changes in a week, so there are some bugs right now. Sorry for any inconvenience! Next week my galleries will get a whole new makeover, though!
