With this one simple change, I have given myself way more motivation to cosplay Marie.

Finished with Roller’s rhinestones! Boots, matrix, and belt are almost done and then I’m starting to remake the jacket this week! I’ve got alittle over 3 weeks left before the con! I’m making some new finials too but it’s been abit of a struggle.

My Full Cosplay Competition History

Just in case ACParadise dies, I'm going to keep a copy of my chronological competitive cosplay entries in this post!

FORMAT: Character Name Series Name Convention Name & Year - Award won, if any

If I've uploaded a picture of said cosplay to tumblr, I'll put a link next to the name. For various reasons, some of these cosplays will never have an accompanying picture here. This list also doubles as a "total conventions attended" list, because I always participate in the cosplay contest! Some of my entries were craftsmanship only, some performance only, some a combination of both, or neither! I occasionally entered contests as an "exhibition" (aka non-judged) walk-on, purely for the love of the game.

Death Note AU where hbomberguy makes a five hour long video about youtuber Light Yagami that's initially completely unrelated to the murders (Light would probably plagiarize or have really unhinged right-wing political takes if he was on youtube)

but halfway through he reveals that while researching he stumbled upon evidence that Light might be behind the Kira murders, and then spends like fourty minutes explaining the concept of a shinigami, an hour explaining how he thinks Light used one to commit murders, and then another hour explaining Light's ideology and why the concept of criminals being inherently evil is flawed

He finishes the video by addressing Light directly and telling him that he (Hbomberguy) had his name legally changed before uploading the video, to something that only he knows, making it impossible for Light to kill him
