Cosplay - Himura Kenshin
|
|
|
Description: Kenshin is probably best know from the series english name: Samurai X, and doesn't really need an introduction. Costume: The costume itself might actually be the most simpel I'll ever have (as it's a pretty much default samurai style outfit except for the colors). Also includes a Katana and Wakazashi. Made By: Fénicia Made For: F.A.C.T.S. 2003 First Worn: Sakura Club meeting Status: I really like this outfit, and I'll probably wear it again at almost any event as a secundairy costume. It's really comfy and although plain, yet somewhat nice. |
My second cosplay outfit.
Here you'll find a history listing of the progress together with pictures and movie
clip(s). (when avaiable)
| Date | Event |
| 13 mar 2003 | Costume finished. Now I only need to wait till my Geta's and Zori's arrive that I ordered from the net ... As for Tabi's, I'll let Fenicia make those, that way it'll be a lot cheaper. |
| 08 mar 2003 | Went shopping with Fénicia for the fabricks. Pretty much default stuff. About 5m white and 3m Blue. Guess it won't be very exiting to write about the making of this one ^_^ |
| 24 feb 2003 | Decided to make a Kenshin costume. This one was originally planned to be made before the Yue outfit. |

OK, I know we need something dark blue, but which one ^_^;;; |

Picture showing just the basics wearing just the basics of the costume. That is, the Hakama, the white and the blue vest. |

Just a little clip of me playing with the wakazashi. Nothing worth viewing ^_^ |

A bit expensive because of the katana/wakazashi, but since I already had those, they don't cost me a thing.
