イベントレポ:AniMaCo


Finally I got my hands on all the pictures I wanted, so let's have another terribly belated event report.




The convention


AniMaco is a small convention held in Berlin every two years. It's really tiny and the location is horrible, but since it is my local convention I fell kind of obliged to go every time...
It's thanks to all the wonderful people that I can enjoy this convention. At bigger events, like Connichi, I feel rushed all the time and hardly get the chance to talk to everyone, but at AniMaCo everything I do is basically sitting and chatting with friends and other people.
Plus, Pictoplasma held a booth where he took professional photos of anyone who liked. I know this is quite common at American conventions, but you almost never have these at German conventions!
So I took the chance to have some proper pictures taken of Euphemia and Nakajerine... and I deeply regret that I didn't ask Picto to take pictures of Rao as well il|li(;-_-;)il|li


The costumes


Rao (Ôkami)

This year definitely was my "busty babes" year... But I love Ôkami to pieces and Rao was just perfect for me to do.
I had a hard time deciding on the fabric, because Rao's dress looks lilac on some pictures and bright purple on others... Also, the hood (?) - I hate it! I drafted the pattern for this dress almost entirely from scratch. I did not want to sew it as a kimono because it just doesn't really look like one in the first place, even though it's propably supposed to be one.
I was part of a wonderful group:
Krone as Amaterasu, Tellurian as Demon Merchant, Feder as Waka and me as Rao. I love you guys ♥

Euphemia Li Britannia - DVD-Box Ver. (Code Geass)

I wore Euphemia rather spontaneously and I kind of regret it because Maddi (C.C.) coudn't be there and so Euphie was all by herself...(・´Д`・)
But then again Picto took these wonderful pictures ~ ♥
This time I messed up the wig pretty badly. The buns are too small and the bangs just wouldn't stay up (>_>)





Four pictures this time - I just couldn't decide which one to pick (≧w≦;)

Queen Nakajerine 29th (MiniMoni. The Movie)

I wore Nakajerine on Sunday only to have some photos taken by Picto (*` 艸 ´)
One of my wings broke during the shoot---again! (ノ・`ω´・)ノ :・'.::・
I really like how the pictures came out, though. I had one of them printed out so I can give it to my grandpa who helped me a lot with constructing the staff and wings.
PS: I swear I did iron the costume!

My next con... will propably be Book Fair Leipzig next spring, but before that I will be at the MTV Game Awards next week wearing Rao. ィェ━━v(o´∀`o)v━━ィッ★
