Of course... let's see... I'd say get some possibly tealish or light blueish/turquoise feathers, some purple ones, and just a couple gold ones for each wing. This is a very good site for ordering, it's where I got my Yuna feathers from; http://www.rainbowfeatherco.com/index.html
Make sure to specify you want them seperated right and left feathers, the wings look better that way. You can only do that at the one pound mark, so if you get half a pound, be prepared to sort them yourself. Yuna's wings were about a half a pound of turkey flats, probably less, but I ordered the full pound to make sure I had enough for them and the feathers on the bottom of the dress. Here's a great site for a tutorial; http://www.paper-wings.org/tutorials/index.html

Where do you live? I could prehaps come and help you out, if you need it.

Well, as it is, I'm out $70 that was stolen from the room, so ordering things is a no-go right now.

I live in Forest Grove, about a 1 1/2 hours away from Portland.

Mitsukai Mizu Amaya · « **Reply #1952 on:** September 09, 2009, 06:58:32 pm »

Well, if I had a place to stay, I could definately come and help between now and next con definately, especially after I turn 18 and my mom can say nothing about it. xD I'm job hunting right now for a jobto pay for next year.

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #1953 on:** September 09, 2009, 07:01:48 pm »

First post updated with the redone list.

Konan-ChanX3 · « **Reply #1954 on:** September 09, 2009, 07:11:53 pm »

Rodney: cool cool

Scarlet: you could stay here, if you don't mind my mom and ken smoking in the house, I'm job hunting too.

Mitsukai Mizu Amaya · « **Reply #1955 on:** September 09, 2009, 07:18:01 pm »

Sure; that's fine with me. xD My mom's a smoker, so I'm used to it.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #1956 on:** September 09, 2009, 07:18:20 pm »

yay started Trance Kuja. The tail is done and I have started to sew on the feathers to the tights. I may post pictures latter tonight.

Jacob_Blackfeather · « **Reply #1957 on:** September 09, 2009, 07:20:22 pm »

I would love to see it

Konan-ChanX3 · « **Reply #1958 on:** September 09, 2009, 07:21:03 pm »

Ah okay, but yeah, I keep the back window open to keep it from gettin stuffy since the apartment's so damn small half the apartment's mine haha

Mitsukai Mizu Amaya · « **Reply #1959 on:** September 09, 2009, 07:28:27 pm »

xDD

I wanna see yours and Heather's trances so badly! They're actually sort similar, if you think about it; maybe it's a Genome thing? xD We'll need pics of the three of us in Trance at con next year!

Konan-ChanX3 · « **Reply #1960 on:** September 09, 2009, 07:36:31 pm »

I wanna see all three or your trances :3

yeah.. I got my roxas wig but it's all knotted up and I gotta brush it out =a=

Mitsukai Mizu Amaya · « **Reply #1961 on:** September 09, 2009, 07:39:51 pm »

OH gods, don'teven make me THINK about brushing out Garnet's wigs >.>

Hey, should my Amano Garnet be brown-haired or blonde? I may have a regular Garnet for pre-reg day and of course PJ Garnet for the laaaaaate nighttime, but what do you guys think? Trance Garnet is definately blonde, but Amano Garnet is originally blonde and had no hairband; no other form of her is without one, and I don't really want to get two(maybe three if I replace my current wig) new wigs. Maybe Amano Garnet with the hairband and still blonde? I dunno... I'll check to see what others have done in the past.

Konan-ChanX3 · « **Reply #1962 on:** September 09, 2009, 07:52:35 pm »

Haha, I chopped off most or the rats nests, it's still pretty tangled though. I wanna do a half assed Roxas style and be Roxas tomorrow for the first day of school xD

Mitsukai Mizu Amaya · « **Reply #1963 on:** September 09, 2009, 07:54:16 pm »

DO IT.

Konan-ChanX3 · « **Reply #1964 on:** September 09, 2009, 08:24:37 pm »

I should [thinks about what japanese teach would say about it >> I should totally get my friends to take pics >> I'l lovin this idea right now. though I can't remember if tomorrow's day 1 or day 2, probably day 2 so I'd have japanese.

I WILL.

TurboSaiyanJason · « **Reply #1965 on:** September 09, 2009, 08:42:22 pm »

The best I can come up with is either a red ninja from FF1, or a player Turk from FF7: Before Crisis.

Forum Name: TurboSaiyanJason
Age: 22
Cosplay: Red ninja or Turk.

I read the first post, and I'm still not clear on how this works. I guess I'm just used to letting randomness decide (rock-paper-scissors) rather than choose myself whether I'm hit or an attack missed. I'm a better player than an actor.

Rainfeather · « **Reply #1966 on:** September 09, 2009, 10:09:07 pm »

Hey Turbo, you should go as a ninja. XD I'm definitely going as Red Mage. Sooo...

I plan on going but I may sleep through this one too.

O: Kahlan can be our Zombie Aerith! xD *from my idea for when Aerith dies by Sephy, to have to come back as a zombie and kill him* j/k

TurboSaiyanJason · « **Reply #1970 on:** September 10, 2009, 01:52:14 am »

Well, Kikyo did the same thing...kinda. She was raised from the dead.

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #1971 on:** September 10, 2009, 08:25:46 am »

@ Turbo: If you have played Final Fantasy at all, you would know what I'm talking about. It isn't acting, per se, it is just playing as your character in a random battle scenario. You know how battles work in FF games, right? Well, that's all this is. Don't over-think it.

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #1972 on:** September 10, 2009, 12:24:36 pm »

Okay, I updated the first post with the list.

And as far as hit/misses go, this isn't really competing to win in that sense. It is just playing along, We weren't planning on keeping tabs on HP or any stats in that sense. It really is just people going through the motions for the sake of having fun as their character.

Also, are there any times people would prefer to shoot for to do this meet-up?

FFVII~Lover · « **Reply #1973 on:** September 10, 2009, 01:25:16 pm »

I'll try to make it as Kefka if it's at all possible for me. I don't know yet so don't get your hopes up!

Name: Ariel/FFVII~Lover

Character: Kefka Pollazo (MAYBE)

Chibiorochimaru · « **Reply #1974 on:** September 10, 2009, 09:32:58 pm »

I Kefka would be EPIC O_O!

As for time and Day: I don't care as long as I get ALOT of notice time, so I can get it off.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #1975 on:** September 10, 2009, 09:33:59 pm »

same. Sunday's would work best for me since I don't work those days >_>

Mitsukai Mizu Amaya · « **Reply #1976 on:** September 10, 2009, 09:37:47 pm »

Possibly same here too; I may or may not be working on our school plays, depending on if I get in the thing...

Which reminds me; I so want to get cosplayers to come to our play. xD

Rainfeather · « **Reply #1977 on:** September 11, 2009, 01:08:15 am »

I'd have to know in advance; I work retail so my schedule's pretty packed most of the time.

chelseahavoc · « **Reply #1978 on:** September 11, 2009, 10:11:09 am »

D: noooo darn my must i be moving.... and eve! i was looking forward to meeting you D:

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #1979 on:** September 11, 2009, 10:13:53 am »

Yup, sorry. The plans failed hardcore.

chelseahavoc · « **Reply #1980 on:** September 11, 2009, 10:14:51 am »

oh well perhaps another con...

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #1981 on:** September 11, 2009, 10:22:02 am »

Yeah, I'll be around next year if you come to Kumoricon again. I won't be attending, but I will be at the FF Shoot.

Jacob_Blackfeather · « **Reply #1982 on:** September 11, 2009, 11:46:32 pm »

so what are we doing?

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #1983 on:** September 11, 2009, 11:49:12 pm »

Choosing a time for the MB meet-up.

Jacob_Blackfeather · « **Reply #1984 on:** September 11, 2009, 11:49:42 pm »

alright I will let you guys decide because anyday is good for me ^__^

nikkiolie · « **Reply #1985 on:** September 12, 2009, 11:27:57 am »

do we want the mock battle to happen outside of the con? And if we want it to happen soonish I rather do it before it starts to get cold, seeing how I will be wearing little clothes. But if we wait till spring I am alright with that as well. I will have trance Kuja done by then

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #1986 on:** September 12, 2009, 11:41:34 am »

Yeah, as time passes I am in less and less of a hurry to get this done. I am fine with doing it next Spring or some time farther off. Definitely no rush, if people would rather wait.

I'm kind of moving on to other things at the moment, so cosplay isn't as much a priority for me anymore. We can postpone it and aim for sometime next year. That's fine with me.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #1987 on:** September 12, 2009, 12:01:23 pm »

I would rather do it in the spring then I could use trance kuja :3

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #1988 on:** September 12, 2009, 12:04:41 pm »

Sounds good to me! Event officially postponed until Spring 2010!

nikkiolie · « **Reply #1989 on:** September 12, 2009, 12:06:24 pm »

YAY! After Sakuracon of course

(right?)

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #1990 on:** September 12, 2009, 12:07:29 pm »

Yes, of course. I figured there'd be a pretty weighty absence of cosplayers due to that event, heh

Mitsukai Mizu Amaya · « **Reply #1991 on:** September 12, 2009, 12:10:36 pm »

xDD I'll probably have regular Garnet and Trance Garent done... maybe Amano. Dress is a given, because it's nearly done anyway. I also figured out how to trance in the middle of the battle! ^^;;

wear Trance Garnet under Regular or Amano, then run over to someone going 'UNZIP MEEEEEEEEEEE~' And pop out as Trance Garnet! xD

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #1992 on:** September 12, 2009, 12:12:12 pm »

lol, that sounds pretty spastic and fun, heh

nikkiolie · « **Reply #1993 on:** September 12, 2009, 12:12:24 pm »

it would be cool to go into trance mid battle but I think I will stick with trance for the whole battle.

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #1994 on:** September 12, 2009, 12:13:09 pm »

Yeah, I can imagine how hard and weird it would be for you to try to alternate mid-battle. They are too drastically different, I would assume.

Mitsukai Mizu Amaya · « **Reply #1995 on:** September 12, 2009, 12:14:10 pm »

The only issue I'd have going Trance mid-battle would be the wig; in Trance Garnet's blonde. >.< Well, if I decide to do it, I'll just have to be brown-haired Garnet. xDD

EDIT

Unless I decide to do it under Amano Garnet, because Amano's is blonde too~

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #1996 on:** September 12, 2009, 12:15:49 pm »

With that theme, I'd love to be Trance Steiner, but there is a general glow about the characters in trance that I don't think you can properly replicate with just materials. You'd need to have like, iridescent lights plugged into your costume, lol.

Mitsukai Mizu Amaya · « **Reply #1997 on:** September 12, 2009, 02:20:57 pm »

That's what editings for. 8D

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #1998 on:** September 12, 2009, 02:27:16 pm »

Indeed.

Exactly what I thought this would be. Though in my small opinion, there is no way for the battle to end. Example: Cloud and Sephiroth each take their turn attacking and the other one declares the attack a miss every time, godmodding in a rough sense. 10 turns later, Cloud lands a heavy blow on Sephiroth, but he runs away flawlessly.

So this is going to be more of a photoshoot than a game. The attacks and reactions to the attacks are just opportunities for good shots of cool poses. I understand now.
