The character list is just pulled from people posting in the old DRRR thread, so let me know what changes must be made.
-
Yay, thanks for adding me~ ^^
-
No problem, I'm excited to see this happen : D
-
Sign me up for the Sagashimono/Things you're looking for girl! :D
... I wish she had a name.
-
Sign me up for the Sagashimono/Things you're looking for girl! :D
... I wish she had a name.
Yeah! I was waiting for you to post.
Btw I don't know if you've seen episode 21 yet, but in the preview for episode 22, they show her again!
-
I wanna be someone D:
But I dont think I could pull off anyone OTL
-
You could cosplay anyone you wanted to.
-
Sign me up for the Sagashimono/Things you're looking for girl! :D
... I wish she had a name.
Yeah! I was waiting for you to post.
Btw I don't know if you've seen episode 21 yet, but in the preview for episode 22, they show her again!
No, I'm still back at episode 19, but now I really have to catch up!
-
I don't know if they showed it in previous episodes, but they also showed the password for the Dollars' site and it is baccano <3
Still not sure about Kyohei. Will probably come down to sometime in August when I decide :P
-
Don't forget Shinra~ That's who I'll be going as. ^_^
-
jianna: You're pretty close, I'm sure you'll be able to catch up.
Trumby: Yeah they showed it right before Mikado texted all of the Dollars. It was a hardcore moment.
Fuyuko: Wow, I can't believe I missed him D: I'm honestly amazed with myself, I just pasted all the names from DRRR's wikipedia page. But I got you down!
-
if you guys have a meet-up monday morning I'll probably go :D
Rio is such an easy costume that I'm probably just gonna make it over the summer and keep as a simple back-up
-
Yayy. I'll try and remember to bring a clicky pen to entertain myself. xD
Speaking of the series, I need to catch up on it as well. I think I'm like ten episodes behind. Eep.
-
I'm glad so many people are interested! It would be really cool to do a photoshoot at the con, but I need to coordinate with my other groups as well. Are certain days taken up by people already?
-
it's hard to tell since there's no thread for them yet...hmm... I think I'll go make one lol
-
So you guys, since my other groups are planning, what do you guys think of having a shoot on Monday, the last day?
I'm also thinking of wearing Anri on prereg day, but maybe one of her casual outfits if I'm lazy haha.
-
Monday would be perfect for me since that's the day I plan on going as Shinra... Again, that's just me. :3
-
like I said before, Monday would be PERFECT for me since I had no idea what to wear that day!
-
Okay, so let's plan for Monday for DRRR!
Hahaha my cosplay plan is pretty much decided already.
-
Money would work best for me as well~ 8D
-
Hi, there~ I'll be going as Anri on one of the days, and my friend dewbMonster will be my Kida. So excited for seeing Durarara this year!
-
Okay, postan to gauge where/when exactly we should have our shoot. I was thinking we could meet up in an easy place, like Pioneer Square (although it might be a bit crowded since everyone and their mom seems to be meeting there) and then head to a different location for pictures.
I don't know my way around downtown too well, but I'm thinking I should scope the area out to try to find a really cool area for pictures. Somewhere with really modern buildings, like high-tech Tokyo.
In the mean time, what time should we meet? I'm thinking around 1pm, does that work for people?
-
1:00 p.m. is usually about the time that I leave :(
so I would say 11- ish but it's up to you guys
-
11 could work, it might be nice to have it earlier since I can clean up the hotel room before we leave lol.
So 11 is fine with me, what about everyone else?
-
That would probably work for me~ I have to leave fairly early Monday as well to drive back up to Seattle, so 11 sounds good!
-
Okay, I'll wait for a few more people to reply, and I'll post in the photoshoot schedule thread that we're meeting at 11.
Anyone got ideas for where?
-
We could probably just start somewhere that everyone knows of, and then migrate somewhere else like you said.
The inside of the hotel is always super crowded, so we should try to avoid that..I guess Pioneer Square would be a good place since it's really easy to find
-
Okay, but any ideas of where we could migrate to? I'm going to try to go downtown a couple of times this summer just to look for a good photoshoot location within walking/MAX distance.
-
the only other thing I can think of would be the parking garage.
We did that for one of the Soul Eater shoots and it looked pretty sweet! I think the all the cement and random road marking plus the lighting would look really cool for DRRR! (it kind of looks like the meeting place of the Yellow Scarves)
-
Yeah, I was thinking the parking garage would be a nice place for the DRRR!! shoot as well~
-
this is basically what it looked like if anyone's curious
(https://www.kumoricon.org/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi87.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fk144%2Fshan-chan_2006%2FKumoricon%25202009%2FDSC_0369.jpg&hash=a2d14516cd84d329c7a65a395c034792826ad3a8)
-
Oh, that looks so awesome! I like the idea of a shoot there.
Btw I'm going to try to pick up some Caution tape to use at the shoot.
-
v2? hahahaaa wow i haven't been on in awhile and i never
saw this durarara thread >u< and its kinda dead LOL
and I will be cosplaying as Shizuo Heiwajima!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! : D
hahahaa
-
Awesome! I'll add you to the list!
-
YAY~! LOL >u<
-
Oh man did you guys see the last episode? I just watched it! I can't say anything though, just in case someone hasn't seen it.
-
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OMG! LOL I LOVED IT!
I hope they release a 2nd season >u<
-
Well they already announced that they were doing a second season, but I've heard conflicting things about whether or not the second half of the season is considered the second season- the area where the OP and ED ended; the second arc.
But regardless, I hope they continue the series! It is based on a series of light novels, and not everything from the novels happened in the anime, so there is stuff they can include.
-
I almost wish they wouldn't... I like the way it ended D:
oh, and on a cosplay related note: I AM HAVING SERIOUS COMMITMENT ISSUES WITH CUTTING MY HAIR FOR RIO!! I'm going to do it. My hair needs a trim. But I've never had it this long before so it makes me a little sad to cut it, but then I'm relived when I realize that it will be back by the time I start college. WOO!
-
Oh man same. I decided to man up and cut my hair for Anri since my hair is too long and thick to get under a short wig for Meiko, and I'm having second thoughts. I've been growing my hair out since the end of freshman year, and it's super long now.
But yeah I keep telling myself that I have my whole life to grow it out again, and plus if it's short I can wear pretty casual wigs...
-
I think i would be too sad if they just ended it >u<
LOL
I always get layers in my hair so it will fit in the wig
lol just gotta find a nice blonde wig for Shizou : )
-
I agree, plus apparently there are characters in the novels that don't even show up in the anime.
I have some layers, but my hair is so ridiculously thick that it doesn't matter. I think it's the longest I've ever had it, too.
-
ooohhh well then I hope those characters are in the 2nd season? >u<
I see. yeah its hard when you have thick hair. My friend had really really
long thick hair and it was impossible to put it in a wig lol
-
As of today, I now have hair that's about Anri's length. This is pretty exciting, one of my friends has hair similar to this and she can put on a wig easily but just putting her hair into a few ponytails. Maybe I'll actually be able to wear wigs now!
-
woah~!!! LOL
-
Yay! I think it looks pretty sweet on you :)
yeah and it's not like I'm cutting mine super short, it's going back to about the length I had it at the beginning of that last school year. So I know it'll all be back by this time next summer haha
I'm gonna start working on rio next month, I just need to make the jacket, dye my shirt and maybe make a purse? I have everything else. I just hope I can tone up my legs enough to wear short shorts! (I have a small frame, but my thighs are pretty big)
-
LOL i need to get toned too xD;;
shizuo is pretty tall and skinny like a chopstick!
and i'm short (5'2") and not skinny like a chopstick LOL
-
Oh man I need to really step up my working out. I worked out a few days ago, and then two days ago I walked all over Portland and got a crazy workout. Today I had a big photoshoot in central Oregon, but I could probably fit a workout in before I go to bed.
But on Wednesday I'm leaving for vacation for a week... I can probably take long walks by myself, but that's sometimes boring >:
In actual DRRR cosplay news, my grandma agreed to help me sew my Anri jacket, but we're not going to do it until August, and hopefully by then I'll have lost enough inches on my waist and I'll have my special Anri bra and we can fit it properly. I also need to remake the skirt, but I, again, need to lose inches off my waist first. So for now I can get the shirt (since I'll have to take the waist in anyways to fit her giant boobs) and glasses.
-
For excersis I just wake up in the morning and the firs thing I do is ride my bike to the beach and back, which can be a good 30-40 min. workout. I used to run, but I'm waiting until July because I'm trying to build up a little endurance with the biking.
And yes, I AM SO EXCITED FOR THIS!! I love Rio's outfit, it's gonna be a super fun last day of the con!
-
I can't work out until my injured knee is better ;A;
darn knee! I can barely walk so I guess I need to
do some extreme work outs after I'm healed yay lol
and I can't wait to sew Shizuo's outfit >u<
1st con I'll be sewing all my cosplays so hopefully
it won't come out crappy LOL
-
I usually do the elliptical for 30 min and then do around 40 situps.
So for Anri's glasses, I'm planning on getting a nice pair of Harry Potter glasses. The ones I found have the HP logo on the sides, but I'm going to sand it off. Also I remembered that I still have to make Saika! That'll be fun, I've never made a sword before.
-
ooh nice! ; D
and Harry Potter!!! I love him! lol and i can't wait to see
how Saika turns out : D
I need to make a sign for Shizuo to carry around lol
its gonna be fun : D
-
Oh man Saika will be my baby, usually my props are kinda crappy, but I want her to be amazing o3o
Yeah totally make a sign! At Sakuracon I saw a great Shizuo who had a "no parking" sign with "DURARARA!!" spray painted on in Japanese. It was awesome.
-
I'm sure it'll come out amazing : D
and you've got a couple months to make it too : )
and yeah I'm gonna make a "!" sign or a stop sign lol
not sure which though ; D
I hope mine will come out as awesome >u<
and did you guys choose a time and place for the durarara shoot?
-
For now the meeting place is Pioneer Square and we're meeting at 11 am. Like I said earlier, I want to scope out downtown and look for some places to take pics. I'm also trying to find out if the roof of the hotel is open to the public, but I doubt it is.
-
oooh okay thanks for telling me ; D
and yeah the roof is probably off limits
to us peoples : (
-
Yeah, it'd be a huge safety hazard.
-
It would be lol
and also i think there should be a backup place
because last yr I went to the Hitman Reborn shoot
and it started to rain and it sucked. LOL
-
I just realized it's incredibly ironic that I'm afraid of heights and I'm cosplaying Rio..
I MUST OVERCOME MY FEAR FOR AT LEAST ONE PHOTO
DDDDDDDDD:
-
lol OVERCOME THAT FEAR! >: D
-
Don't worry Shannon, I totally won't push you off :D
-
LOL I'll probably just find a little ledge that LOOKS like it's 20 stories high ; D
-
Oh yeah, we'll have some creative photography lol.
-
hahahaa its gonna be amazing xD
-
Heyyyy. I'll probably bring Izaya and I want to make that little game board of his with the random pieces from different games. =3
-
nice! : D
you should totally make it! xDD
-
I'm going to...I got the "Go pieces" today (they're little buttons that I'll be cutting off the backs of and they looks like Go pieces, so I didn't have to buy an entire game set).
-
Sounds awesome~ I'll add you to the list.
So you guys, I was thinking that maybe instead of Pioneer Square, we could meet in the skybridge between the two Pioneer Place buildings. It'd be a really cool spot for shots while we wait for everyone! Then we could either stay there or move on to a better location. Plus it's covered, so we'll be dry if it rains.
-
i think thats a good place to meet! but will it be too crowded?
because its in a mall and there lots of people there.
-
Oh yeah... Well I've never really seen that area too crowded, although it is a Monday morning, but it's a holiday... Well it's up to you guys, I'm fine with either place.
-
I'd prefer to be outside or in a place with good lighting if it's inside. Outside pictures imo always look prettier. <3
-
Well i think we should just keep the meet up at Pioneer Square
and if it begins to rain or the weather looks bad we could
relocate to the sky bridge : )
-
Okay :] Skybridge is all windows so I assume it's pretty much all natural light, but we can go there later if we really want to.
-
Okay ; D
so on cosplay matters i just purchased my wig, boots(since im short and shizuo's a tall man!)
and will be getting fabric for shizuo's outfit! : D
yay! lol
-
Sweet! Hopefully I'll be ordering Anri's glasses soon, and I'm going to remake the skirt sometime this month. I also have her shoes coming my way.
I'm scared about making the blazer and Saika, oh god D:
-
If we're talking about cosplay progress, I just got the fur for my coat today as well, and I already have a wig, so I pretty much am done except for the game board. (Izaya is such an easy cosplay...XD I've also done Shizuo, and I'll be debuting Shinra this month, but nonetheless DRR for the most part has somewhat easy cosplays.)
-
DRRR is fairly easy, although there are small details that are important.
A few days ago my friends and I were talking about how DRRR cosplays might become the new Death Note cosplays DD: I really hope that isn't the case.
-
Mmm yeah...
-
Hallo~
I may be going as Izaya, with a Shizuo.
8D;;
-
The new death note cosplay!? : O
i hope that doesn't happy! lol
@franken stein-sensei- cool! : D
cant wait to see it!!!!
-
Added you to the list!
-
I've got my bodysuit for Celty, but I need to find a helmet...
-
Hi! I'm fleur_fraise's friend who's going as Erika. ;3;
-
Hi! I'm fleur_fraise's friend who's going as Erika. ;3;
YAAAAAAAAAAY~
-
Preview of my Izaya coat (did the longer version), don't mind that I'm in pajamas and with no wig on ::) : http://s114.photobucket.com/albums/n257/Dietrich_san/Izaya%20Preview/
Curious, is there any way you can dye fur or stain it a certain color? I know Izaya's fur on his coat is a bit darker than white, kinda an off-white/tan, although I've seen people do it with white and it looks fine too...I'm kinda afraid of it losing its fluffiness if I do...
-
Oh man it looks cool! I can't wait to see you at the con, I'll take a billion pictures and probably be a creeper >: I love Izaya.
As far as I know (don't quote me, please!), you can dye fur. I know one of my friends dyed fur fabric for a costume, I can ask her what the process is. It might be different since it was shorter fur than jacket trim.
-
Ha =D Thanks.
Hm, yeah, mine's kinda thin and long so I dunno, it's all they had at my fabric store that would work (the others weren't fluffy enough)...
-
woahhh its looking good!!! : DDD
can't wait to see it in person! : D
-
My suggestion would be trying a little dye on a piece of scrap fur that isn't on the jacket. That way you can see how it turns out, and if you like it, you can dye the rest of it too.
-
@66stripedboots: Thanks!! =3
@fleur_fraise: Yeah that's what I was going to do. I'm just trying to find a method...mom suggested tea since it's just water technically, and the coor I want is a tea-looking color, anyway.
-
Oh, tea is a good idea! Will you post pictures after testing it?
-
I'll see f I can.
-
Sweet, I can't wait!
-
So I decided to go along with the tea dying idea on my coat since it looked nice on the test fabric. You can find new pics (five at the top) here: http://s114.photobucket.com/albums/n257/Dietrich_san/Izaya%20Preview/
It's unfortunately a little hard to tell in pictures, but in real life I can see the difference. It feels more wool-like (looks more like actual wool/fur which is cool), and is a darker color, almost an off-white yellowish color, and I like it a lot. It also smells like hazelnut chocolate tea. =D
If anyone decides to do this method, just know that when it dries, it's a much lighter color than when it was wet. Also, try to "blend" blotches together with less-colored areas near it to get a more even color by "smooshing" them together with your fingers. It turns out nice in the end.
-
Oh that looks so cool! And the smell is always a nice touch haha.
Tomorrow I'm going to Joann's to get stuff for DWC, but since there's a 99 cent sale on Butterick patterns all week, I'm going to buy my blazer pattern too! Eee I'm so excited, but also a bit scared. Never made a jacket before!
-
got my pants, white shirt, wig, his glasses, and just made his cigarette.
lol when my parents came in while i finished the cigarette they said the
funniest thing.
"....DO YOU WANNA GET THE CANCER!?!?!?"
hahahaaa xD
just need to make the sign and his vest now : )
-
Yay!
I just remade the skirt I'm using for Anri, but I think I did the pleats wrong so I have to remake it again :/
Although, in somewhat good news, my grandma (who said she'd help me make the blazer) instead offered to buy me the blazer. I found one website that actually sold women's blazers in the right aqua blue color, but I'm checking the website now and it looks like they don't have any in that color anymore. If anything, I could just dye a white blazer, but I really want to make sure I get the right color. I've seen a lot of people mess up the colors of Anri's uniform and I want to get it right.
-
yes please get the right color! D:
it bugs me so much when they have the
wrong color lol
-
I just made a really big decision in like 10 minutes xD
So, (last minute, I know) I am dropping one of my cosplays, and I am going to do Kida instead. I got really excited about it, and Kida will be cheaper than the other one xD Therefore...you have another Kida : D
-
AHHH KIDA <3 I can't wait to see it! Kida's such a badass~ ;D
-
kida is amazing~! hahahaaa ; D
i would have cosplayed kida but
i just love shizuo too much hahaha xD
hope to see you at the photoshoot!!!
-
I'll probably be late to the photoshoot cause I have one right before that at 10, But I will come for sure!
-
OMG OMG OMG HALEY~
Oh my god I'm so excited 8D
-
I'll probably be late to the photoshoot cause I have one right before that at 10, But I will come for sure!
Its all good : D we can wait for the super fantastic super amazing
kida~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hahahaa xD
-

Ohoho thanks! xD
I just ordered bracelets for him, cause I figured out that he wears two silver bracelets O.o And I'm hoping that I can order my wig tonight. I also found one of my sweatshirts to make a pattern out of and I bought white jersy fabric for the jacket, and some yellow for the scarf. After I do all that, Im pretty much done.
Except the shoes. I can't remember what kind of shoes he wears. I was thinking just converse would work, but do you guys know what shoes it shows?
-
Ohoho thanks! xD

and i think i remember him wearing brown boots... lol : D
-
Oho Dana ;D
Those look like ones we could go get at Value Village, Haley.
-
oh wow thanks Dana! I forgot about that pic xD
I spose we will. Hopefully they will be comfy tho xD Cowboy boots can hurt.
-
kidnapping is always the way to go hahahaa
xD
-
yeah thats true : (
i would love to be the mikado but
i don't think i could make his jacket in time
because i fail at sewing xD;;
-
We need a Mikado ;-;
Jameson was going to be him, but he's way taller than Haley and I so it'd look funny.
I'm actually ordering my blazer online, I'm going to dye it too. So you could just get a white men's blazer and dye it, or I'm getting a light blue one to dye.
-
oh that sucks D:
was mikado going to do the school outfit too?
and i've never dyed anything in before D: lol
-
I haven't either, but I think it's fairly straightforward. I can let you know after I do it.
Btw how tall are you?
-
ooohh yes please tell me : D
i want to know the finished product too!
so pictures too?
and i'm 5'2" lol
-
aww so cute!
Yeah, I'm 5'7"...and Jameson is what like over 6'?
-
woah! so tall!!! >u<
i am envious! lol im a short little asian lol
and 6ft is so tall! DDD:
-
I-I think I'm a good height for Celty :'DD I'll probably be just a bit over 5'9" with my boots on.
-
woah! so tall!!! >u<
i am envious! lol im a short little asian lol
and 6ft is so tall! DDD:
but short little asians are so adorable!!!
-
Daw I'm 5'2, but yeah Jameson is 6'1 lol. We're going to do the creepy guy and stalker girl (as we've named them) because we have the correct heights down :3
But ffff we need to find a Mikado who is around 5'6 - 5'8 >:
-
HAI I'M 5'6
But I dun have a wig like his head. :<
GOOD LUCK
-
...HEY SHAY WANNA BE MY NOT-BOIFRENDO FOR A COUPLE OF HOURS?
You could get like two of the same short black wig and sew wefts in and make me the happiest girl in the world ;-;
-
Waitwhat.
If I already had a short black wig, I could get that outfit done easily, but this close to the con, I dun think It'd be a good idea to start more cosupray! > n <
Sorry.
-
Kida wig is ordered
And shaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyy...You should be Mikado 8D PEER PRESSURE!!!
-
Shay you could do a casual outfit. That's what Haley is doing, and for our shoot with Dana, I might just do a casual outfit if you guys do too.
Please please please do it!
-
Lololol but I have no wig.
And not a lot of extra money. :<
-
s'ok shay~ I understand that sitiation. I was mostly joking anyways XD
and Katie, does she even have a casual?
*possible spoiler?*Or the black outfit in that episode when she's sneaking around...lol or the cat outfit! *end*
-
Aw I was serious >: Someday?
She has the black outfit and then like a skirt and a cardigan.
-
If I some how come upon a short black wig before Kumo, then I'll do et. 8D
-
I hope you guys can find a mikado soon!!!!!!!
-
Okay, Shay ;-;
Yeah we need a Mikado >: The friend I was going to make do it later isn't going to kcon so that's a no go.
-
Hot.

-

-
Shizuo, you so sexy~ <3
AHA YESS! My dad has finally agreed to letting me use his motorcycle helmet for Celty :'> I'll probably start on the ears tonight (I've had the supplies for months orz) so I can start sanding asap 8'DD.
-
Hey you should bring those boots along lol ;D
Oh man Celty! I'm so excited!
-
So am I ahkjfsadhf ;D I so want to join your Friday night shoot with Dana ffff ;.;
-
As Celty? Fffff man that'd be so cool, I'd love you to come along if it's okay with Haley and Dana :3

of course you can! XD
-
Y-yay..! :'D
Also, I need to get working on my scythe. I started one a while ago, but I don't like how it looks, so I'm scrapping it and starting again.
-
So today Haley and I had hardcore sewing, and we both got quite a bit done:
(https://www.kumoricon.org/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi843.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fzz360%2Fma-ka-san%2Fcosplay%2Fmine%2FDSCF5437.jpg&hash=dc6353f81db53eb95de2366a7d84514703be9f18)
I completely remade the skirt, my god. Third time. I'm done.
I still need to dye my hair (Saturday, hopefully!), get glasses, get the right shirt, and get the blazer. (And get the bra that makes me two cup sizes larger lololol)

Haley made the sweatshirt and started the scarf, and she also found these shoes in her closet. Those aren't the pants she's wearing btw, she has a pair that are manlier. And her wig is on the way :D
Successful day was successful :3

awwww~!!!!
you guys look so cute! xDDDD
can't wait to see you guys in person! : D
-
You guys look so amazing <33
I'm gonna add the ears to my helmet tonight and take in my body suit in the shoulders. I need to buy some leather gloves and see if it is at all possible to squeeze into my mom's leather boots (I think they're size 8 and I'm a size 9 ouch ._.)
-
Ahh I can't wait to see a bunch of live DRRR characters! I'm gonna go as Izaya on Day 2, I think. Maybe day 3.
-
Yaaaaay another Izaya! Should I add you to the list? We'd love to have you for the shoot.
Eeeee thank you! I'm so excited for this cosplay, Haley and I kept talking about silly things we could do haha. Skit ideas and all that.
-
Sure! That would be awesome.
-

I LOVE THIS SONG!! I wanna do that skit!!!!!!!!
-
Hahahahaha we so do XD
-
The past few posts confuse me. xD Probably just because I have no idea what skit you're talking about but it sounds epic with how hyped ya'll are. =O
-
MY HANDS HURT BAAWW. But helmet molding is done :'DD (see progress thread for picture durrhurr...).
-
you guys should totally do a skit! ; D
we can meet backstage and chat! even though i won't be shizuo
for the skits lol
OMG! its looking good! i can't wait for the completed version! ; DDDD
-
Thank youu :>
And I would love to see a DRRR!! skit, as well <3
-
We are still thinking on it, but it would probably be for Sakuracon. I need to talk to Katie before I can say much about it, cause I'm not sure if she wants to keep the idea a secret or not : D
-
Then you should keep them lips sealed missy. xD Until you're sure it's okay, don't want no trouble now do we? Though even if it was for Sakuracon you guys should go for it! And if you do anything for Kumoricon: SAY SO. I'd totally show up to watch, or help out in any way that I could since you'd be fellow DRR awesome people.
-
I'm planning on bringing Celty to Sakuracon too, and I'll definitely go see your skit if you end up doing it~

We actually are entering the cosplay contest, but not for DRRR. Its for dark woods circus. And we really really want to xD Man I really really wanna tell you guys!! but I'll keep quiet untill I talk to Katie xP
I'm planning on bringing Celty to Sakuracon too, and I'll definitely go see your skit if you end up doing it~
YES
-
Ohhh cool! I'll try to get in. c: Lines are nasty at Kumoricon but since you guys'll be there I will try my best! ;;Never actually been to a cosplay contest before so it'd be cool.;;
Hey I wanted to ask your guys' opinion. What would you think of this for a Kida wig? *link* (http://cgi.ebay.com/Pecan-Blonde-Hi-Temp-Short-Straight-Bang-Cosplay-Wig-/170492553798?pt=US_CSA_MWA_Wigs_Extensions)
-
Teehee, thats the one I ordered. I think its gonna be good~ and it has a really good price~
-
I think it looks great~ Plus, it's not abnormally yellow/blinding gold like I've seen some other cosplayers use.
-
Teehee, thats the one I ordered. I think its gonna be good~ and it has a really good price~
Haha!! Wig twin.~~ I'm pretty sure I'm gonna go for it that's why I say that. xD
I think it looks great~ Plus, it's not abnormally yellow/blinding gold like I've seen some other cosplayers use.
Yeah that's what I was thinking too! I don't get why people make his hair this bright blonde color when it's more of brownish-blonde color. Also I saw a picture of someone cosplaying using this wig for their Kida cosplay and it looked AWESOME.

Yay! wig twins! Oh and you found a pic, thats good~
-
Yeah I did.~ If you're curious to see it's here! (http://browse.deviantart.com/?qh=§ion=&q=kida+masaomi+cosplay#/d2lfn5k) I thought it looked great, and saw it before and was considering it, so it kinda tipped the iceberg with me. ;;Just purchased it actually and is excited for its arrival.;; Now I just need to get the rest of the cosplay together! Yay for places like: Goodwill, Marshalls, Dollar Tree, and Value Village. =D
-
Oh that looks lovely! Now I'm even more excited!!
-
I know right?! It's so cool.~ I hope I can style it to look as nice as that person did. I've never really tried styling before on my own.
I wonder...hey Nya how tall are you? I'm trying to see if any of the Kidas are close to the same height/the same height. xD I'm about 5'7" or so.
-
same~ about 5'7" : D but my boots raise me about an inch.
-
Holy cow awesome! =D Two out of the three Kidas are the same height...and are going to have the same wig! This'll be funny. xD Mind if I add you on MSN?
-
sure go ahead!
-
Did so!~ I haven't been this pumped for Kumoricon all summer, I'm amazed at the motivation I can get a month away from the con.
-
I'm glad so many people are excited! DRRR this year is going to be great 8D
I kind of feel like a loser for not using a wig, but hopefully my hair won't look terrible ;~; Nya will help me straighten it.
Also for the skit we'd need a bunch of Dollars (MIKADOOOOO ;-; ) and people willing to learn a dance ;D
-
I think you're hair looks great for Anri when its straightened. So realistic 8D
-
Thank you XD Yesterday was just a quick run for pics, for the actual con I'll take my time to straighten it properly.
-
lol don't feel like a loser! im sure your real hair will do
bc in the picture it looked nice ! : D
oh yeahh did you guys find a mikado yet? : O
i wish i wasn't already in a skit then i would totally be in the durarara skit! ;A;
-
I'm totally willing to learn a dance! Enlist me! =D ;;Dork.;;
Darn today was a total bust. Walked all the way from Marshalls to Good Will to Value Village and NO LUCK. I couldn't find anything for my Kida cosplay. D; I'm getting nervous now, I need to think of something pretty soon.
-
Hey you guys what's everyone's real names? I always feel like a loser using usernames :DDD;; I'm Katie.
66stripedboots: Daww thank you. I'll actually get it straight for the con, and I'm also going to get it trimmed again before the con so that it's all the correct lengths when straight.
And no we still need a Mikado ;-;
Romo: Yeah! It's a good workout too! And bawww I'm sure you'll find something >: The Value Village by me (Tigard) is great for cosplay stuff.
-
Hey Katie.~ I'm Alyssa, sorry I should've said something earlier but oh well. xD
Yeah it is a good workout!
That's exactly where I was. =O I looked thoroughly and there was nothing I could use. Being unable to sew helps me none too.
-
Might be willing to join said skit, if needed :D
And I'm Julia~ 8'D
-
Alyssa and Julia! Sweet, I know names now ;D
Alyssa- Aw that sucks. What exactly are you looking for?
Julia- Awesome! We definitely need a Celty :3
-
Katie, Alyssa, Haley...I got this down 8)
Katie: Just tell me what to do, and I'll (most likely) do it c:
-
Katie: Kida's school uniform costume and I'm also trying to get together his gang one too. I'm missing pretty much every aspect of both so I'm looking like crazy. These two anotherwords: School (http://www.animecharactersdatabase.com:81/images/2371/Masaomi_Kida.png) -- Gang (http://i46.tinypic.com/idyxq0.jpg)
All: Would these shoes work do you think? I mean I'm only asking because I already own them but if they're no good that's cool. I just wanted to check before I went off spending excess money. *link* (http://i298.photobucket.com/albums/mm264/MagicalRomogirl/Private/DSCN4892.jpg)
-
OH GOD SO MANY NAMES.
Julia: Well, have you heard of the song "Gee"? ;D
Alyssa: Ah, I think the gang outfit might be better than the school one if you're in a rush. It just looks like a plain black hoodie and a white t shirt, and then buying fabric at Joann's for the scarf is fairly easy, and then a pair of nice jeans. Maybe check Target? I know they sell packs of those men's undershirts in white, and I think one of those would work. And those shoes look like they'll definitely work, his shoes aren't particularly important.
-
Katie: OH, THE ONE WITH THE MANNEQUINS?! xDD If so, I love that song <3
-
Katie: That's very true, and as it turns out the school one is a big pain to find in just normal stores. I tried all of today and failed like I said. xD That's some pretty solid advice and honestly I think I'm going to follow it. Thanks for all the help, I really appreciate it! C: And good, reusing shoes for the win.~
-
Hey you guys what's everyone's real names? I always feel like a loser using usernames :DDD;; I'm Katie.
66stripedboots: Daww thank you. I'll actually get it straight for the con, and I'm also going to get it trimmed again before the con so that it's all the correct lengths when straight.
And no we still need a Mikado ;-;
Romo: Yeah! It's a good workout too! And bawww I'm sure you'll find something >: The Value Village by me (Tigard) is great for cosplay stuff.
cool~ can't wait to see it : ) and im sorry about the mikado situation ;A;
maybe you'll find one before the con!
and my name's vivian ; D lol
-
I'm talking to someone right now who would actually be willing to cosplay Saki. :3 Which I think would be cool.~ Sad things is she doesn't have a good wig for it and so it's making her not wanna do it. D;
-
Julia: lolol yes XD There's a dance version of it, like a full dance of the entire song. Haley and I were trying to find an excuse to do this dance in a skit and we found a somewhat funny DRRR one.
Alyssa: I had to find a plain black hoodie for one of my costumes and it was super easy, like five seconds after walking into Value Village I had multiple options. It'd be awesome if you could do the school uniform, but there's only so much time until kcon.
Also if the other Kida who isn't you or Haley does the school uniform, then all three of you will have different outfits lololol.
Ah Saki! I hope she does it, even if she isn't perfect when it comes to the hair >:
Vivian: I'm hoping we run into a really good one at the con, I've had similar stuff happen before.
-
Katie: Lol oh man, learning this dance like, right now *.* (wait, is it ver. 1 or 2? o3o) Just imagining a bunch of Dollars doing this. So intense xD.
Alyssa: SAKISAKISAKI <3
-
Uhhh the one I've been looking at is version 2, I haven't seen a version 1 before. We won't be doing the full dance though, that would be so boring D:
-
Julia: Haha!! XD I'm trying my best to get her to do it.~ Though the wig thing has her unsure and stuff so yeah. I CAN HOPE. She's scouring the forum trade section for one.
Katie: Nice! I'll probably be able to get stuff pretty easily then which makes me happy.~ And that is true, we'd all be in different costumes. Speaking of which who is the other Kida? I haven't seen them...at all. Also that dance looks like it'd be mega fun. o__o; I so want to learn it now....;;looked it up.;;
-
@kaite
well i hope it does! : D that would be amazing~! hahahahaa
have fun learning the dance! and what dance are you guys talking about? hahahahaaa
i hate learning dances because i suck at them lol
-
Alyssa: I actually have no clue who the other Kida is :D We'll find out. And yes that dance is awesome haha. It's mesmerizing.
Vivian: It's to a popular Korean song, literally everyone I've talked to ends up loving the song. And I'm okay at dancing, but Haley is pretty good so hopefully she can teach me.
-
oooh which song is it? i probably know it lol im a music junkie (also im korean lol)
hahahahaa and that fantastic people are using korean music instead
of just japanese music yay lol
-
Oh I mentioned it earlier, it's Gee. I'd be surprised if you don't know it haha.
-
oh i must have missed it lol sorry xD;;
and omg lol that song has been engraved
into my brain to the countless hours of
my family dancing and singing to that song lol
can't wait to see your performance! ; D
-
Vivien: The thought of an entire family dancing to Gee made me laugh, not gonna lie.
Dana: Pffffft pics or it didn't happen.
-
@katie; lol its okay kaite hahahahaaa for new years OMG
embarrassing >////< i wanted to hide in the garbage lol
my grandparents were dancing to gee and my mom
was trying to do mister by kara ;A; lol
-
hahahahahaa my eyes were bleeding!
maybe we should trade families for a day! xD
-
Well I went to the mall today with some epic people and I foundddd...a Kida earcuff! YAY!~ But unfortunately there was only one so I'll have to go back later this week to get a second one. Here's a picture of it, I feel so lucky.~
Earcuffed.~ (http://i298.photobucket.com/albums/mm264/MagicalRomogirl/Private/0807101603.jpg)
Yes I know it goes lower down on the ear with Kida but that was my first time putting it on, I kept working at it and got it lower down so it'll be more accurate. I just wanted to show you generally what it looked like. c:
-
I thought that was real piercing!! LOL XD
and i finished Shizuo's outfit and was planning to make his sign thingy
but when i went to joann's i couldn't find plastic tubing : (
do they sell plastic tubes at joann's? if not where DO they sell them XD
-
That's the point. ;D They look like real piercings without the whole needle in the ear part!
Good for you.~ And let's see...they might have stuff like that at Michael's. Or another craft store, I'm not sure. Check around plastic tubing can't be that hard to find!
-
I'm sure Home Depot has PVC pipe, would that work?
And the piercing looks awesome, what store was it in?
-
Thanks! And it was in "Icing".~
-
Ooohhh! i might have to go there then lol
i just need to finish my other cosplays now Dx
-
Oh I just remembered I got my hair dyed today! I got my roots touched up and the pink dyed out. I gotta straighten my hair and then I'll take a pic.
-
I've been deeply inspired by pictures and parts of the anime...I'm thinking of getting some extra fabric and maybe shirt and making a bloodied version of Kida too for some photos. I just need to think of some effective fake blood mixture. Since I know the kind of "fake blood" they sell in stores isn't that great...at all.
Katie: I'm so excited to see! =D
-
Oh my gosh bloodied Kida would be so cool! And actually I have some fake blood I got at a party store that's pretty good, it actually looks real when it's wet. I don't really have a use for it anymore, you can have it if you want.
And here's my hair:
(https://www.kumoricon.org/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi843.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fzz360%2Fma-ka-san%2Fcosplay%2Fmine%2F40041_1522274304153_1453449591_1329671_1723236_n.jpg&hash=604481988486a6b8496f8c7a045b10b7fb90531a)
My mom straightened most of it with her amazing new straightener, it gets way hotter than mine because it's newer >: So hopefully Haley and I will be able to replicate this at the con.
(Not the most attractive pic of me, but it shows my hair nicely)
-
Can I really?! That would be so amazing! I would be so happy if I could use that, since I'm not having a lot of luck finding good mixtures at the moment. And I've always wanted to try a bloodied character costume. x3
Wow that looks...like Anri. xDDD Great job Katie!~ That new hair straightener definately did the job, and the new dye (covering the pink and roots) helped tons too!
-
Just woke up like 5 minutes ago what. There's something wrong with me .-.
Katie, you're hair looks EXACTLY like Anri's! It's perfect <3
-
YOU HAIR LOOKS AMAZING!
YOU MAKE WIGS WANT TO CRY! LOL
@alyssa
FAKE BLOOD!! <3
-
God, that's some amazing crossplaying :o
-
A M A Z I N G~!!!!!!!!!!!!
i would have never guessed it was a male... XD
-
Thank you guys so much! I'm glad you like my hair! I'm going to go through the series and screencap Anri's hair from various angles and then have my friend trim it again more like her's. I think she has it a bit shorter in the back.
And Dana I'm planning on hairspraying my hair on Monday. I've had my hair like this for about three and a half hours and nothing has changed. Hng I want my mom's straightener now, it gets super hot which is why it works so well. Plus it makes my hair all shiny ;-;
And Man-Celty! The sad thing is that man has a better body than most Celty cosplayers. Although you can see his bra or whatever through the suit :/
-
Well I went to Fred Meyer's today and was able to get my Kida pants, shirts, jacket (though it has some pockets that might not be in the original oh well it's no biggie pockets are always good at cons), and bracelets. So great progress has been made! >8D I feel so lame since everyone else is sewing their cosplays here but...meh. xD
-
Don't feel lame, I didn't sew my bodysuit (speaking of which, I wanna get a new one. I think mine's too shiny. Don't think I have enough time before the con, though... ;3;)
-
goodness, gone 2 and a half days and I had to read 4 pages to catch up xD
OMG ALYSSA I WAS THINKING THE SAME THING ABOUT BLOODY KIDA. so fun to do~ Also, the ear cuffs look great! I wish I could do them, but they would be placed wrong cause my ears are pierced :\
And Katie, what brand is your mom's hair straightener?
And, I also got Kida's bracelets in the mail while I was gone~
and nothing on the wig yet...
-
Really Haley? Wow you are my Kida cosplay twin. xDD Thanks a lot by the way! I have my ears pierced too so it might look a little funny but hey it's all good. xD When did you order your wig by the way? I only ordered mine last wednesday but I'm squirming in my seat. I WANT ITTT. D=
-
I ordered it...hrmmmmm...I think like Tuesday. So we should be getting it like the same time~
-
Sounds like we will!~ So where did you disappear to the past few days? :3
-
ROAD TRIP 8D to Seattle to visit grandparents, and the to the Great Wolf Lodge C:
-
Ohhh that's fun! :33 What's the Great Wolf Lodge?
-
An awsome water park thing that we have been saving to go to for a while xD Its got awesome slides and stuff~ http://www.greatwolf.com/grandmound/explore/activities (http://www.greatwolf.com/grandmound/explore/activities)
-
Oh wow that looks like a ton of fun! o__o What was your favorite part? xD
-
Aha, I love the Great Wolf Lodge <3 (ESPECIALLY THE WAVE POOL 8'DD)
-
FUN!!!!!!!!
i am jealous >u<
i have school work to complete ;A;
-
I gotta say the wave pool and the howlin tornado were the best part xD
-
Sound awesome. :3
And huzzah! I'm going to Joanne's for the second time in my life tomorrow.~
-
Hello! I can't seem to find a good Anri wig for my cosplay, and I really don't know if I can pull off her hairdo. (Incidentally, I have black hair, near her length! Just no bangs...xD;) So any wig sites you may know of with good shipping? I don't know if I can trust Amphigory, but they do have a reasonably priced wig. http://amphigory.com/wigs_a_hope.html I just don't know if this is long enough? Sorry to trouble you guys!
-
I've never ordered from Amphigory, but I think the wig would work fine~ Anri's bangs are slightly more blunt than the wig's, but that would be easy to fix.
-
@Smallbombs: Thanks, I think I may order it. (My friend has ordered from there, so at least I can trust them. xD)
I'm terrible with wigs, so I don't know how to fix it, but maybe I'll figure something out, lol! Again, thank you!
-
Fachion, I think I have something but I dunno. Maybe I'm way off the mark with this one but I think this would make a great Anri wig personally: Link! (http://cgi.ebay.com/Black-Inverted-Bob-Short-Bang-Cosplay-Wig-/170492559220?pt=US_CSA_MWA_Wigs_Extensions)
I've heard that Amphigory is a very trusted site though. Personally to me that wig looks a little flat, but it'd work with some good ol' fashioned styling. :3
-
That wig looks great for Anri, I think. It might be a bit too short in the back though.
Haley- idk the brand. I'll ask her later, I'm actually on vacation now lol.
And I'm buying most of Anri lol. I only made the skirt, and that's being used for another cosplay anyways.
-
@Romo: Aww! I wish I saw that wig before I took the Amiphigory one...But thank you!
@Fleur_Fraise: Oh, no worries, I'm buying Anri...xD; I failed on time this con, so I bought the costume. And any advice on glasses? I've been trying to find a pair to use, but I'm not finding a good pair. (I'm trying to find a pair of reading glasses and break out the lens.) Sorry to ask so many questions, guys. xD;
-
Fachion, no problem. Sorry I wasn't faster on linking it. But on another note: don't break out the lenses in glasses! It ruins the effect of having glasses for cosplay in the first place. D: A lot of glasses come without prescription glass in stores. When I was at Washington Square I tried some on and nothing changed so I think some are just glass to start off with anyway. Maybe it's just me though. ;;Leaves general question to Katie feels bad for breaking in a question not posed to her.;; xD
-
I probably shouldn't give away my secret, but my plan is to buy a pair of deluxe Harry Potter costume glasses and sand off the HP logo. They're realistic glasses in the right shape with clear glass in them! I've actually gotten dollar store reading glasses and broken the glass out for a costume, it looked okay. I'd do that this time but they don't sell round reading glasses.
-
@Romo: Aw, thanks, and no problem! :] I actually don't live in Portland, lol, I'm all the way up in Seattle. But I can maybe get a friend to help me, or I can look around a bit more. I seem to have a problem of attracting glasses with perscriptions. (Mostly Reading glasses..) Clair's doesn't have the wire rimmed, but they do have a variety of colored thick rimmed glasses, I found out the other day. xD
@Fleur_fraise: Maybe I'll check on a few dollar stores up here. Thanks for the idea! I haven't thought to look at a dollar store! (And no worries, I'll do my best to not steal your secret!)
-
^ Yay Seattle buddy <3 (well, I'm in Tacoma, but still...)
-
@smallbombs: Tacoma! I live there! I say I'm from Seattle because everyone knows where that is, haha. I go to Stadium High School, if you've heard of it. :)
-
Oh! I go to Annie Wright, so I'm just down the road xD
-
Seriously? I go there once in a while with my Drama club! That is so neat! I live on the other side of the water, but still! I'm super old, though. I'm a senior this year, haha. X)
-
Hah, that's pretty awesome!
-
Aw don't worry about "stealing my secret!" they sell HP glasses on amazon, you should look. I want you to have a great costume, too!
-
Baww, thank you. ;o;
And for some reason, Ampigory denied my order, haha. Something about AVS address not matching. So I'll be trying to figure out what to do for a wig now. (Might just get a cheap one this con, and order a good one for after...)
-
Huh, that's weird. I was originally going to get an Anri wig from Arda Wigs, but they can be lazy about shipping. I ordered my Meiko wig from them about a week ago and they haven't even shipped yet.
-
Amphigory denied your order?? Whuuuuut. D=
I usually shop on amphigory or cosworx and sometimes ebay. The first two are great and ebay is great if you know what you're doing. XDDDD
Hnnn...I should work on my gameboard for Izaya... =x
-
You could still check out the wig I linked, not the best but it'd do in a pinch. Sorry to hear amphigory was a jerkwad to you. :/ I've never heard of them doing that before but I suppose stuff does happen.
And thanks to my own weird mind I can just say 'Durarara' anymore. I have to say 'Dura-ra-ah-ah-ah' because for some reason I was thinking of Bad Romance intro at the same time as saying the name to this anime today. xD
-
Baw, thanks. I'm definitely looking into those wigs on that link you sent me. :] I might buy another wig along with the Anri one for the sweet prices!
And lol, Lady Gaga with my Durarara? Yes.
-
Oh god that's awesome XD I always just say "durr" because I'm lazy and it started as a joke between my friends and I.
Another DRRR skit idea I had involved Lady Gaga's "Telephone." I love that song so much.
-
Haha that's funny Katie! xD I've been trying to think of a way to say "Durarara" without feeling like a total idiot and somehow that whole Lady Gaga thing worked for me.~
Ooooh I wanna hear about that skit! Somehow with how entertaining our little pocket of Du-ra-ra-a-a-a cosplayers are over here I almost wanna do a skit. Just for fun because it is...;;knows that made no sense but whatever.;;
And Fachion, that's cool. :3 I like that little ebay shop. Good quality wigs, low prices. It's win-win.~ I hope you find what you're looking for!
-
Haha, I call Durarara Durr too. It's just so easy to say, you know? xD
I did find two good wigs, I think the quality looks fantastic, too! Hopefully the wigs get here in time, I ordered a few moments ago. :]
-
I call it Durr too xD
I ordered my new bodysuit. Had to pay ridiculously expensive shipping for it to get here in time orz. But hopefully it'll be worth it ;.;
-
lol I also call it Durr

I remember watching the first ED one on NicoNico a while ago. Seriously amazing <3
-
I got my second Kida ear cuff today!~ Huzzah!!!! Now all I need to do is cut the fabric I got for his scarf, which hopefully is enough to make two if not back to Jo-Ann's, and wait for the wig to come in the mail. Life is good! 8D
-
Sorry for the double post, I just wanted to make sure you guys saw this since if I just edited you might not. I need to ask a question! I just realized for the Bloody!Kida cosplay I'm going to need a crowbar, since he used one, and I KNOW that real metal crowbars aren't allowed at the con. Any suggestions on how I can make one/find one con-appropriate?
-
Hm... I wish Haley was home, she's good at props. That's a good question. Maybe you could carve it out of foam and cover it with clay? I've seen that method work, but never things as big as a crowbar :/
-
Hmmm maybe, I've never carved foam though and I'm not sure how I'd bend it to ge the right shape. Then again I'm probably only saying that because I have no idea what I'm doing, for all I know that's really easy to do. Though if Haley is good at props I can check with her at some point and see what she says too. Thanks for the idea! I'll consider doing that. =O
Also, I dunno if you check your PMs, but I was asking about when I should get the fake blood from you. Any good times?
-
Oh ffff I got moved to another page of PMs, I probably missed it. I'll respond right now.
-
Already posted in the cosplay progress thread, but today Haley and I went shopping and I ended up getting a pair of Anri glasses:
(https://www.kumoricon.org/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi843.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fzz360%2Fma-ka-san%2Fcosplay%2Fmine%2FPhotoon2010-08-14at21082.jpg&hash=20c6d72336d8c3ee3bde4182c7d7e4da887c223d)
Thoughts? They aren't perfectly round, but I think they'll do.
-
Those look fantastic! Did you keep the lens in or pop/break them out? It looks as if they're still intact! :o
-
They're powered reading glasses, but I kept the glass in. They're the lowest power I could find, and for the most part, don't affect my vision after about 30 seconds of wearing them. I'm just not going to wear them when not hanging out in the main con area, and I'm going to take painkillers to make sure they don't give me a headache.
If you want to get a similar pair, check out Dollar Tree, that's where I got mine. They didn't have rounded glasses in the past (that I know of) but I saw them today and just happened to have an extra dollar.
-
Aw, well, I may break the lens out of a pair of reading glasses only because I've always wanted to...
Anyways, they look great, and I've been meaning to get to a dollar store, so now you've motivated me to go look! :]
-
Actually it's funny, I think I might actually read better when wearing these lolololol. That or my eyes just get messed up right after I take them off.
Anyways, I've broken the glass out of reading glasses before and I suggest taking a nail and hammer and just hitting the sharp end of the nail into the glass. They should just pop right out. But be careful, my dad did this for me once and he accidentally broke the frame >: That was before I hot glue gun so I just dealt with it, but I'm sure a little dab of glue would fix it.
And I'm glad you like them! I also ordered my blazer today, I'm so relieved that I'll probably finish Anri before the con. We'll bro out and be harassed by the many Kidas, okay? XD
-
Oh god, I know, my friend is a terribly accurate Kida, I'm so not ready for her crappy pick-up lines and jokes. xD; And we can definitely be bros, lol! Oh, and as far as this thread goes, we don't have a Mikado, do we? xD -totally ships KidaxAnri anyways...-
And thanks for the advice, hopefully I can borrow a glue gun/find some glue in case my frames break!
-
Hahaha Haley (Nyahaha on here) is being my Kida, we were taking progress pics that we didn't post in the thread and she went full-on Kida and posed with her arm around me XD She sent me a pm full of bad jokes too.
Baw I like MikadoxAnri, but I always go for the canon couples. Kida and Anri are hilarious for pictures lolol.
Actually the only time I liked a pairing outside of canon was when I saw this pic on tumblr:

I like Izaya too much. What can I say, I have a thing for trolls :B
-
It's totally ok, I love reading fills at the Drr Kinkmeme for IzayaxAnri! xD
And really? I'm the poor sucker that gets stuck shipping pairings that are usually not canon. (Like Zutara, Ulquihime, ShizuoCelty...)
And what is this thing you people call tumblr!? I've never seen it before. OTL

Huh, interesting pairing...=D
If you want pics of that, let me know lol.
-
Ahahahaha don't tempt me XD maybe I'll ask for one pic of us together, it's more of a joke pairing to me. I have a more platonic love for him, I'm happy with my own boifriendo :3
And tumblr is a sort of blog, it's kind of hard to explain. My website on here is just my tumblr page, you can look at it to get the idea.
-
@sk_chan: we may need you for a picture...we want to get one of those loud horn things or a fake one and get a picture of Izaya making the horn go off in Kida's face while he's trying to sleep xD It would be great if you wouldn't mind popping into our room for that lol.
I'm trying to make up a bunch of bad Cosplay puns and photography puns to blurt out at random points xD I love puns so much~ And I really want to go to a bookstore and get a pun/joke book xD
-
Bwaaaaah if only i saw this thread sooner =3=
Well, then possibly next year I'll go as Anri Sonohara :3
-
You should have gone as Anri this year anyway. DX I don't have one so I'll just be fighting with the other Kida's. Or working together with them...hmmmm...>___> But you still see! You should have joined the awesome cosplay bunch that is Durarara!!
-
Aw I hope you change your mind!
And Alyssa, what do you mean by working together? D:
-
Bwaaah, i would still go as Anri but i'm all out of money to buy another cosplay >o>
-
Yeahhh money is quite the issue in cosplaying, isn't it? Well I hope you'll get to eventually! :3
Katie, Katie, Katie...you've seen what ONE Kida is capable of. Just imagine the power of THREE working together to get girls. ;D ;;kidding.;;
-
^ ohoho it will be an endless stream of bad pick up lines and lame puns.
Lol I got a whole bunch of really stupid pick up lines xD and a few knock knock jokes to use when the time is right xD
-
Well are you going to have a photoshoot?
I'd love to stop by and take pics ^3^
(unless its on monday, then i can't ^~^''')
-
yeah its on Monday at urm... I think 11am? At the pioneer square
(hey Katie...you should put the photoshoot time and place on the front page :D )
-
^ Bwaaaah~ T^T i start school on monday!!
Hummmm, well if i see any of you guys, I'm definitely going to take a picture >3<
-
No! that early D:
I'll be wearing Kida on Friday too so if you are there that day...
-
Yeah yeah! I'll be wearing Kida/Bloody!Kida all three days so just keep an eye out for me. If I get Bloody!Kida done soon I'll probably wear that more just because it'll be awesome. xD
-
^ Ahh, okays!!! I'm gonna ask to get a picture wit chu in my Mei cosplay~ Or my Miku... eh. Hahah
@Nya: Dx
-
^oh noes! are you not gonna be there on Friday?
-
^ Noes, i can't Dx Its basically my last summer day before kumoricon and my parents want me to have some family time that day =0=
I'l be there Saturday and Sunday though~
-
GOSH WIG TWINNN. Way to be inconvenient for someone who wants to admire the beauty of your Kida cosplay. NIIICE JOBBBB. xD
-
IM SO SORRY! [cries in corner]
but I'll be Kaito on Sunday :D so maybe you'll see me then?
-
^ Oh yeah!! =)
-
Okay I added the time and day to the OP and title!
-
you rock times 2, Anri
xD
-
Hey Kida you need to either get on msn on respond to my text.
-
psh I'll do both
-
@sk_chan: we may need you for a picture...we want to get one of those loud horn things or a fake one and get a picture of Izaya making the horn go off in Kida's face while he's trying to sleep xD It would be great if you wouldn't mind popping into our room for that lol.
Totally. =DDDD
...I mean...
...>=DDDD
-
Yay!!
Katie now we need to find one of those horn things :D Or a fake one...
-
Hm, I'll see what I can do.
-
this one is $5.50, but we may be able to find one at like a party store...
http://cgi.ebay.com/Air-Horn-sports-pranks-safety-etc-hand-held-New-Nice-/290443641792?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0 (http://cgi.ebay.com/Air-Horn-sports-pranks-safety-etc-hand-held-New-Nice-/290443641792?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0)
but, my hair spray bottle Kind of looks similar...but not exactly. we could paint it if we want to do that.
-
When I go to the Costume Warehouse to get a Saika, I'll see if they have anything like that.
-
okay~ and If I run to a party store anytime soon, I'll look. I don't live that far from the one by Albertsons so maybe I will go there sometime this week...
-
omigosh, i was at target today and saw a sweater that looked EXACTLY like kida's...
if i wanted to i could've made a last minute kida >m< ughhhhhfhfghfgblghzdblj~ Dx
-
asdfghjkl;;; The shoot is during Cosplay Chess' premeet, and the game is most likely during another shoot I'll be doing...I have a feeling I won't be doing CC this year. I think I may focus more on photoshoots. The thing is, I usually enter because it's so much fun...
/random rambling
Like I was thinking about entering Izaya. XD But I don't know how popular he'd be, with DRR being new-ish.
-
I was thinking of doing CC sometime, but you should come to the photoshoot! This photoshoot is going to be so great, I can tell. I love our little DRRR group <3333
-
oooh :( i don't think i'll be able to bring/make shizuo's big sign >.<
i really really want to though! ahhhh!
and totally come!!! : D our group is amazing~! lol
-
I'm going to talk to the people in charge of CC about whether or not you can drop in to prove you're there and come back again later. Every time I've gone to a "premeet" it's been basically to show that you care enough to show up...then you stand around for an hour doing pretty much nothing aside from listening to people test stuff and figure out where they stand. I really wanted to do it though so I'm going to try to do this and that...plus after talking to Haley today I had some pretty fun attack ideas...shishishi.
sk_chan, you need to do itttt. It's fun and if we're on opposite teams we can totally harass each other. XD
On another note, on an epic adventure of fun with Haley today I got all the stuff I need to make my fake crowbar, more fabric for a second scarf, and almost got some sexeh body spray just to attract DA LADIEESSS. ;;Kidding yet not.;;
-
Sounds like you'll be done with your cosplays really soon! :] And I totally want to see cosplay chess. The first time I saw it was at my first con, and I haven't seen it since. ): If you Drrr peeps are in it, I'll totally go see it!

What did haley get today?

pst, Haley, pic didn't show up.

I really like that wig...and mine that looks just like it is coming soon so I am mega excited now. =DDDD
Hey, hey! Hayley can you link me that painting tutorial thing? C:
@sk_chan
I've participated in 3-4 so I know what you mean. But I ALSO remember people coming in and going out a couple of times so I figure it never hurts to ask.
-
@katie: does now :P
@alyssa: sure thing http://www.entropyhouse.com/penwiper/costumes/helmsdeep.html (http://www.entropyhouse.com/penwiper/costumes/helmsdeep.html)
skip down to the glue/sealing part, and skip the enforcing with fabric part.
-
Eeeeeee Haley you look so cool~
I can't wait to get my blazer, but I'm worried about it being too long in the torso and sleeves :/ Oh well, we'll deal. I also still need to get my fancy bust-enhancing bra. I was going to get that crazy $50 one from VS, but it's out of my price range right now. I'll try to get it for Sakuracon, but for now I'm going to get a padded push-up from Target or something.
Tbh, a lot of what most people remember of Anri is her boobs, so I need to do those well.
-
Thanks Haley.~ I think my brain exploded trying to understand what was going on in that thread but I have a feeling if I read it a couple more times it'll make more sense. Either way I will be victorious! FAKE METAL CROWBAR YOU ARE GOING DOWNNN. >8D
-
@sk_chan
I've participated in 3-4 so I know what you mean. But I ALSO remember people coming in and going out a couple of times so I figure it never hurts to ask.
Alrighty, well lemme know what you find out, I won't enter until I get an answer~ =3
@nyahaha: BTW I like the wig too.
-
thanks guys!
@katie: we can figure it out when it gets there.
@romo: which part was confusing? I can get on MSN tomorrow and help you out if you need~ or just text me if you need help. I'd help you now, but I'm goin to bed soon xD
-
OMG! i am jealous of your wig!
it looks so nice! >u<
-
thanks! Its so soft! I'm gonna be petting my head all day xD
-
hahahaa i must pet your head!
-
=/ ....my impatience is starting to show. My wig still hasn't gotten here yet!
-
Ugh, I know. My wigs have yet to arrive for all but one of my cosplays this year. And it's starting to look like I won't be getting my Anri costume, so I might have to settle for her black outfit as backup... -crossing finger they all get here in time-
-
Haha the black outfit was actually going to be my backup too- I have all the pieces of it. I was worried my blazer wasn't going to get here on time, but my dad told me it's on it's way in the mail, so I'm not too worried anymore.
My Meiko wig, however, ended up being a disaster.
-
Oh no Katie!!! D: What happened to the Meiko wig?
-
Well I ordered it around three weeks ago, and we had to email them three times before they would ship the thing. This was about a week ago. They still won't ship it, so we're just canceling the order and buying a wig at Wig Land instead. A short brown wig isn't exactly difficult to find.
-
True, true. Jeez that's the most trouble I've ever heard someone have trying to get a SIMPLE wig. D: I thought you meant you got it and it was horrible when you thought it'd be great. Which would be worse since you would've wasted money and stuff.
-
That sucks D :
i also hate when they send you the wrong wig ;A;
i was so excited about my alto wig and when i opened
it, it was a short purple wig. i was very sad! and angry lol
-
Oh buying it and receiving it would be even worse. It was Arda Wigs, actually, and I had heard from boogiepop/Nikki that they're not good at getting stuff shipped, but I underestimated them. It sucks because I love their wigs, but their customer service is so bad ;~; I'll stick to buying in person.
At least it's not a fancy wig in a weird color, god it'd be bad.
-
Yeah, that sounds like a mixed basket for sure. You're lucky if you get one since they're good but if you want one you better order months in advance I suppose. xD I've never bought in person, almost did in Ashland but that's about it. Wig Land sounds cool, I've seen it around online and heard about it, but I've never been there before.
-
I've been inside before, it's really cool. Their wigs are really nice, and they have a variety of types. I'm getting it on Tuesday.
....SO GUYS DURARARA!! IS PRETTY COOL ISN'T IT.
-
UH, YEAH. IT TOTALLY IS.
-
I wish we had a wig land up here. ;^; We've got pretty much nothing but party stores, haha.
AND DRRR IS GREAT. Even if I'm in denial about the ending...
-
What's wrong with the ending, Fachion? I thought it was pretty good myself. xD
Katie, cool!!! Yay for Tuesday!!! AND YAH HUR HUR HUR IT'S THE MOST EPIC SHIZZ EVERRR.~~
Not to be a nagging nellie but when can I meet up with you to get the fake blood? ;~;''
-
psh I don't like the ending. I don't like that one girl. forgot her name already. And Kida leaves with her. he leaves all his friends D:
-
I thought it was a tad too open ended. To be fair, the ending wasn't bad, but some parts were lacking in my opinion, haha. (Since...I totally don't like Saki. Why Kidaaa? Bros before hos, dude!) Maybe it means another season? Oh, and it looks as if I'll be out and about tomorrow buying Anri's glasses and most likely the black outfit. :]
-
Alyssa- Oh fffffff I forgot. Uhh well on Tuesday Haley and I are getting the wig and possibly doing our Value Village run, are you free then?
Hey Haley want to go to Value Village on Tuesday after Wig Land?
Oh yeah I heard they had announced a second season of DRRR!! but I've also heard that the second half of the first season (where the OP and ED change) is actually the "second season." Idk anymore.
-
oh what we are? I need to pm you...
-
Been so busy lately, I've been neglecting the forums baaww ;3; As for progress, I'm still working on sanding my helmet. It's been so hot out lately that I don't feel like getting off my butt to work on it =3=. Thankfully, it's cooled down a bit so I might get it finished this weekend.
-
@Katie
It really depends on when. I probably am, but I have my senior registration and stuff that morning so yeah. As long as it's after that I'm all good on meeting that day.
@Haley
I agree, I don't like Saki either and I was pissed about how Kida left but that was the only part that didn't please me. The rest came togeterh pretty well. I just find it weird that he still wanted to be with Saki after all the lying and stuff she did for Izaya. =/ Oh Kida...
-
Okay well Haley and I need to figure what's going on and I need to ask my dad lolol.
And true love conquers all! Kida and Saki truly love each other okay! ;0;
-
I will be Kida next year!! 8D
But that.. doesn't help anything... >_< LOL
-
Well I finished my modeling for my crowbar, for the record I did a bit more after this picture was taken, but here's generally what I made! I know it's suckish but don't judge me. ;~;'' It was my first time ever doing this.
(https://www.kumoricon.org/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi298.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fmm264%2FMagicalRomogirl%2FPrivate%2FZi6_1120.jpg&hash=61ee559cbb6a90659361d17737c05c34457732a6)
And I came to realize that for bloody kida I need a plain white hoodie, like what Haley has, and there's no way I'm going to find one of those in stores. D8; Anyone have a suggestion for someone I could commision OR any wise choice of action?
-
Ebay.
Also, craft stores tend to have plain t-shirts for crafting on, not sure about hoodies though.
-
Yeah but those tend to have front pockets and stuff...and a zipper. I need one like this:
Link! (http://918thefan.com/images/misc/hounddog/durarara/durarara02.png)
Maybe I could get one from Jo Ann's, I saw one there with pockets, and get someone to edit it for me...;;lame thinking outloud.;;
-
The crowbar's lookin good Alyssa!!
And for my sweatshirt, I just used jersey fabric from Joanns, and a big sweatshirt from my closet for a pattern sort of thing, except it wasn't all the way correct, so I kind of messed around with it untill i got the fit right.
also, if you got one from joanns, it wouldbe pretty easy to take the pocket off. And as long as there isn't a zipper, it should work fine.
-internet is being stupid, so if i post more than one of these, its not my fault ;u;-
-
Thanks Haley! And yeah, I don't know how to sew so that wouldn't help much for me but I do remember the one at Jo Ann's didn't have a zipper. I just would need to get the pocket off and things would be good. xD
-
yeah getting the pocket off with a seam ripper would be pretty easy, as long as you don't rip the actuall sweatshirt lol
-
yeah getting the pocket off with a seam ripper would be pretty easy, as long as you don't rip the actuall sweatshirt lol
IAWTC. I use seam rippers SO MUCH in my cosplay adventures...yet sometimes rip the piece of clothing by mistake, and there's not much you can do about that unless you sew it, and even then it makes it look uneven. =\
BE CAREFUL OR ELSE.
-
Damn. I got new red contacts for my Izaya cosplay, but stupid GEO sent me the sharingan ones. DX Oh well. I'll just be Uchiha!Izaya. *phail*
-
I think I just realized...I made my crowbar...uh too big. That's not a big deal, right? ><; Oh gosh it's really big...not huge or anything but I feel like I could've cut it down to make it shorter/more the correct size...too late now.
-
@Savvy: Oh no! At least you can cosplay a sharingan person now..?
@Romo: I think it'll look great! Plus you can beat more people with it since it's bigger? 8D
-
I hope you're right Fachion, because right now it's not that strong. The top part needs to be supported more so I'm trying to fix that. But I looked again and realized it's only slightly bigger than average. So maybe it'll be better for prop purposes. xD
-
I think it'll work out. :] And you can always beat up the other Kidas for not having a crowbar!
-
The other Kidas don't HAVE to have a crowbar. xDD I only need one since I'm doing the bloodied version of him.
-
Even though you have a crow bar, I can still slay you with my awesome pick up lines, cool puns, and hillarious jokes 8D
-
Actually...I don't think I have one anymore. The top just snapped off and the frickin model magic isn't drying so it's falling apart. This is just friggen PERFECT.
-
oh no really!!! but it looked so good!!! D: I'm sorry! it took like 2 or 3 days for my things to actually dry >_>
-
I know! I loved it, and I'm hoping to salvage it if I can. I know why it broke after I think about it. I made a STUPID mistake. The top was already starting to fall off, but hadn't fully dried yet, so I wrapped it in black electrician's tape. THAT is where I screwed up. I should've waited until it dried to do that. Because now the upper part is softer than all the rest and is at risk of falling off. THE REST is fine. Just the part that matters is breaking. DX
-
I hope you can fix it!!
-
@Romo: I hope you can fix it, too. :]
Success! My wig came in and the costume is here, so I've offically got Anri ready, except for glasses. I'll try and get a pic, but I don't know how I'll upload one off my phone, haha. So excited for the con now!
-
Well I pretty much fixed the crowbar (phew!) but now I'm stuck with a really crappy white sweatshirt with a zipper and front pockets. Oh well, it was cheap and last minute so it works. xD
Also! I just finished hemming my two yellow scarves so once I get my wig my cosplays will be complete. That and once I finish painting/puting together my crowbar.
-
Yesterday I bought dye for the blazer, and that evening my day texted me to say my blazer came in! I'll probably get it Thursday and dye it that evening.
-
Thursday at my house?
-
Is that okay? You said you'd help be dye it and since I'll be over there anyways... ;D
-
yeah thats fine. I'm gonna pm you so we dont spam this thread with our ramblings xD
-
Sounds good.
And hey you guys I'm downloading the DRRR OST and OP/EDs so we can play them during the shoot :3 I'll hopefully have my ipod speakers again.
-
Awesome Katie! 8D That'll be so cool.
And currently I am minorly pissed off. My wig hasn't come yet so I'm going to have to submit my cosplay chess application without it, but they said I could just show them what wig I bought and I'd still have an equal shot as long as it got here by the con. I'm still annoyed though. I thought it'd be here, you know, a week ago or something. D< But whateverrr.
-
that's wierd that its not there yet. If you go onto the ebay account that you bought it with, then there should be a tracking number and you could check on it.
-
I didn't have an ebay account. I bought it as a guest...
-
can you check the guest thing?
-
I dunno, I have a username (that they assigned me) for it but I don't even know how to check a tracking thing on ebay.
Edit: I never got a tracking number so it's impossible for me to track it anyway.
-
you go to my account, then look under the "won/purchased". The wig should be listed in there. Mine had a tracking number next to it. Also, did you make sure that the money actually came out of where it was?
-
But like I said I didn't HAVE an account. I was under a guest name, it assigned me a name but no password since I didn't exist. Thus I have no "won/purchased" section. xX;;;;;;
And yeah the money went out; and it has been shipped. I just dunno how long it'll be until it actually gets here.
-
ok as long as you got a shipping conformation email it should come.
You haven't gotten a letter on your door or anything right? Because we had to have someone sign for it. If there is no one at your house to sign for it, then they leave a notice that they will try again the next day and after that you have to pick it up from the post office. Almost all of the wigs I have gotten just went in my mailbox, but this one was different...must be because its a Kida wig xD He's so special.
-
Yep yep! I'm just hoping it's sooner than later. Dx I hate things getting here RIGHT BEFORE the con.
No I haven't, my dad told me nothing has come. But we're both around so if someone does come to the door I'm sure we'll get it. All of my wigs have tended to come in the mail too but if this one is different then...well who am I kidding it suits it so well. Kida deserves the extra attention. ;3
-
Hopefully you get your wig soon! I don't see why it'd be taking so long. ): (And Kida is super special, hur hur~)
-
God wig dramu... I remember why I used to stick to my own hair for cosplays.
I'm so glad I cut my hair for Anri, actually, because the place I was going to order my wig from was the place I got my Meiko wig from. Plus now my hair fits under my wigs and my boyfriend likes it :3

GUESS WHO GOT HER BLAZER TODAY~
It's so huge on me lolol in that pic it's pinned back but still huge. And, luckily, it's a lot darker than it was on the website, so I might not have to dye it. Compared to the box of dye I have, the blazer is only like a few shades lighter.

I think this is my favorite costume so far!

@Alyssa: OH BOY WIG TWINSSSSSSSSSS
@Katie: Anri, you must be a broom, because you sweep me off my feet! 8D

@Haley
OH YES TWIN WIGGSSSS!!!~~
And I'm so happy. I used the fake blood and finally got a picture of my Bloody!Kida cosplay. It was a pain in the butt but it was totally worth it. I'll post it later. =3

You all look so awesome! I so can't wait for Monday. :]
(Btw, isn't there a Legos tour or something at Pioneer Square during the con weekend?)
-
you look awesome alyssa!!
i can't to see all you guys on monday too!
( and really? :O if so there might be lots of people there DD: )
-
there is and there will be lots of people, but we could just meet around the square somewhere and walk to another place so we don't have to change anything last minute. It would suck for someone that doesn't check the forums to go somewhere we arent xD has happened to me before
-
I was thinking we would meet at the top area in the Square, near Starbucks.
-
that sounds good
-
That could work : )
-
You say Starbucks and I'm there~
Of course, I'd be there anyways, since I love Drrr, but still! xD

KIDA IS DONE!!!

*o* You look so awesomeee! All the Kidas are so goregous~
-
Thanks~ but not nearly as cute as all the Anris |D
-
I just wanted to post that I'd like to join :D
I'll be cosplaying as Celty, and I have a friend who is being Simon and my brother is being Izaya :P
-
Oh hey Haley did you trim your wig? :3 Also ffff I want your eyes. I will cut them out of your face, I want them so badly.
hikkimikki- I added all three of you to the list :3
-
Yay! Thank you! (^ ^)
-
I did lol. Kida is 100% done-a-roo~ and no you won't!!! you aren't part of the wierd surgical place Anri!!! :<
-
i can't wait to see your celty cosplay hikkimikki!
and can't wait to see a simon and another izaya!! : D
the conventions in 2 days! :O
-
fffffffffnaowiuehgaoeihja 'gpj CANT WAIT
-
Oh man!
I lost Anri's tie, so I have to remake it lolol. It'll only take a few minutes.
-
sorry I couldn't find it. You know just watch me find it while I'm finishing up the packing on Friday xD
-
I'm so expecting it. Maybe I should wait to make it til after I'm done cleaning my room...
-
I can't wait for the con~ Unfortunately...School starts tomorrow for me...
But to be on topic! I need to trim my Anri wig, the bangs are a tad too long, and I need to iron the costume, then she'll be ready!

Tee hee hee YES~!
I am here and I am definetely coming to Kumori-con~! xD <3 <3
-
Izaya and his gameboard are complete! 8D
See you on Monday~ (or if you're at pre-reg I MAY wear it on Friday too. xD Not decided on that yet.)
-
@Dewb
Yay!! :3 I can't wait to see you there.~
@sk_chan
Are you going to the picnic or concert on friday? I might see you at those. I dunno.
-
@Romo: I haven't heard about either one... o_O
-
I re-made my bow tonight lolol. And I pinned it to my shirt so I won't lose it again.
-
omgomgomgomgomgomgomg TOMORROW!!! 8D I woke up and started dancing before I got out of bed cause I was so excited xD
-
hahahhaa xD
im kinda dead from all the crap I still need to do ;A;
but still super excited! !!
-
Okay, so I've made a decision. I'm wearing Izaya on Friday as well as Monday. But on another note, I'm going to attend two photoshoots on Monday, DRR (@11) and DW (@1). I can hang with you guys for about an hour, but after that I've gotta get back to my room and change. =X We can still do the photos we were talking about if your hotel room is close to the con center? (The one with the horn or something you wanted me to do with a Kida. xD)
-
actually we can't get that shot cause we didn't have enough money to buy the horn thing xD And yay! can't wait to see you friday
-
Didn't feel like getting a wig so i cut my hair like Anri's xD
(yeah, I'm doing a last-minute Anri x3)
-
Wow last minute, you're not even kidding haha. Good for you. xD
-
I know right? xD
-
Three Anris, three Kidas! Woo!
Anyways, totally excited for the con~ We start our epic three hour road trip down tomorrow, and will hopefully be able to sleep a few good hours before waking up insanely early to get our badges. If you see a girl in a pink ball gown with a tiara, microphone (which is pink~) and most likely in heels on Saturday, that is me, so feel free to talk to me/find me, because I'll try and do the same. :] This is probably my last post until the con starts, haha, since I have school tomorrow, followed by packing last minute, and then driving down to the con/hotel!
-
woahhh!! : D
can't wait to see all 3 Kidas and 2 Anris!!!
lol I think I'm still the only Shizuo xD
edit; i meant 3 Anris!!!!!! XD
-
@66stripedboots:: I cant wait either!!! and technically theres 3 anris.. i made one last minute xD but I'll only be Anri for a lil while on Sunday >m<
And since my Anri is so last minute, its bound to be failure DX but if you do see me, just say hi too x3 I'll definitely be looking out for all you guys~
-
@agpgirl
You will receive a hug from me even if it was last minute. c:
-
^ Yaaayy!!!! x3
-
lol I think I'm still the only Shizuo xD
Which is weird, because the SakuraCon shoot was dominated by Shizuos (me being one of them). I'm sure there will be more that just haven't spoken up yet.
-
Real hair Anri ftw~
I just cut my hair for her too lolol.

Thanks :D I'm sure I'll be easy to find, I'll be carrying around a big scythe too!

I saw quite a nice turnout of Durrrr cosplayers today. An epic Celty, an Izaya, another Kida, and I think I saw agpgirl...I THINK. Was that you? I was the bloodied up Kida that randomly came up to you and started being all lame. xD If it was you I have to say you definitely pulled off a last minute Anri. c;

If she was carrying a big scythe and acting all awkward cause she couldn't hear anything then it was me xD
-
Oh my gosh it was you! I keep seeing you everywhere, your cosplay turned out SO well. :3 Sorry if I wasn't speaking loud enough. It might not of been your helmet I get that a lot in general. ><

Hello everyone! I was a photographer at today's shoot (the girl with the blue bag) and I have uploaded all the pictures I took! There at my Imageshack profile (http://profile.imageshack.us/user/otakubookworm/) under "My Images"! It was fun taking these pictures and seeing all your cosplays =D
-
Ah today was so fun!
I'm really really sorry that Haley and I had to run off early, the hotel checkout was kind of a mess since so many people were checking out at once. But we were thinking it'd be fun to have a DRRR meetup sometime :3
-
I had so much fun with you guys!! And thank you for uploading the pictures so fast!! I wish we could have stayed longer ;u;
And It was great to meet you DRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR bros xD
-
God today was so freaking EPIC. I loved it to death. xD All of you who showed up are so epic!!! I can't wait to see you all again. I really hope we get to have another chance to meet up again. And never forget DRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!! xDD

DRRRRRR must live on forever! >8D

LOL YES IT DOES XD
-
DRRRRRRRRRR
Hopefully at Akicon 8D and maybe MEW?
-
I have to save as much money for college next year as possible. D; The next con I can make it to would be Sakuracon, but even that's a maybe since my mom has to be willing to drive me there.
-
looks like you guys had fun!!! my mind blanked after my
durarara shoot with dana and i forgot to go!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm so sad! ;A;
-
We were wondering where you were! D: I wish someone had your number ;~;
-
yeah!! i set an alarm but my friends kept me busy with
stuff ;A; and i really wish someone had my number to
remind me!!!!!!!!! ;A;
-
Awwww well next time we have a photoshoot, we'll be sure to invite you.
-
yep >u< well im glad you guys had fun! : D
-
Heyheyhey~ Orihara Izaya here. Had a lot of fun~
Only thing I regret and was sad about was not having any Shizuos...=\
Aaaanyway, I want to encourage EVERYONE to post their photos and/or videos here!! (If we have any vids...)
-
There were no other Shizuos!? ;A;
I really am sorry there were no other shizuos at the photoshoot!
no i really regret about forgetting to go DD:
-
Nope, no Shizuos. I was really surprised. o_o We were dominated by Kidas and Anris...
-
A yeah ;D
No Mikados though ;~;
-
oh : (
no shizuos and no mikados!? booo!! lol
-
It was still pretty epic, even though it was sad we were missing characters. D: I really liked the pictures with Celty in them. So many cracky/creative poses. xD (I had trouble not laughing when the Izayas were all "VROOOM VROOMMM")
-
I'm so sorry Shinra couldn't be there! I was occupied with other events and was having too much with a good friend.
I'm glad you guys had fun though. :'3
-
LATE ME IS LATE, HEY DRRRS!
I had so much fun, and was so bummed when we had to go back home. We should totally plan another meet up! I don't know when, but we'll do our best to come even if we live a ways away. xD
-
I was the other Izaya. (the male one) I'm going to try to go to MEWCon if I can get the days off work. (retail holidays etc)
-
Awesome! You both were great Izayas! :]
-
Bwahaha, thanks. >=3
Although, looking at the other Izaya, I noticed I forgot the rings...D= And he had a nice belt too...I shall re-wear Izaya sometime with those alterations...
-
Since it wasn't taken at the photoshoot I figured I'd share this picture I took with Linkhiei on Day 1. So far I have to say it's my favorite shot of the weekend. xD

Awesome picture yayyyyyy :)

Hey, so what other cons are my DRRRs going to? I'm hoping MEWcon, and Sakuracon is likely. Anri is pretty easy and I'll hopefully be doing a genderswap Izaya at some point too.
-
I'm hopefully going to MEWcon too and Sakuracon. Of course if Katie is Anri, then I'll be Kida, and if she's genderswap Izaya then I'll be genderswap Shiuo~
-
I always go to SakuraCon. My cosplays for that are TBA though, although I may bring Shinra since I haven't brought him to a con yet. 8D I'll also be at Akicon this year Sat and Sun, but pretty sure I won't be in DRR for that.
