I read the OP and somehow I assumed you won the contest but from reading the comments (you didn't :S)?

Do you still play WoW? (answer carefully here!!! )

Are you going to do another costume this year (I would suggest Artanis )?

Making paper costumes is not my thing I'd have just payed someone else to make it xD

He clicked this thread?

Scrolled through the thread and realized I had no idea what Riku (or many people's) voices were. I assigned Riku a voice based on what I thought her personality was and it turned out to be so wrong.
I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

That's creepy "I can see your vagina" Alexstrasza from Blizzcon last year, I believe.

Action-Bastard
Her "name" is Rikukitty (RikkuKitty?) and she does alot of attention-whoring on forums and other sites.

Geisladisk
You shouldn't, she is unhealthily thin. Also, the vast majority of men don't find that particularly attractive.

SammyWhereAreYou
Yeah, I just showed those photos to my husband to get the male perspective and he just made a face and said "gross."

Psalmanazar
She's pretty.

Pretty androgynous, that is.

You're telling me. I'm glad I didn't do that cosplay until this last year. I think I would have had serious depression problems from all of the negative comments I've heard about myself. Still, a lot of them sit with me poorly and don't exactly make me feel great. I've been trolled enough to not care enough to let it really hurt me, though. I don't even think they made me cry, or maybe only made me cry once.

Truthfully, the cut and color is extremely unflattering, so it makes me look pale and oddly shaped in most photos.

I remember seeing some of those pictures earlier too. They didn't have many positive comments. Some of it might sound harsh, but if I said you looked good in that costume I'd be lying. Haters gonna hate etc. just learn from your mistakes and make an even better costume next time.

I dunno what some of these guys are thinking, but personally I think you look very attractive in that costume. After looking at the initial character I can find very few large differences and that feels pretty impressive to me.

No material under the gauntlets past the end flaring part.
On the hips near the midsection the small curves are not as exaggerated as they should be.

Those are two that I can remember without having to look back ^^

looks good imo. I always liked alexstrasza too, her dragon form is so sick even in game
(so often they have disappointed me when it comes to dragons in the game)

and I find it funny that some people are shocked/surprised that in cosplay you sometimes show
a little more than the usual.

nice work, good effort and you had fun so... .

All I can say is anime conventions =/= gaming conventions.

While I don't disagree really that you come off as being a bit of an attention whore, I'm curious why people talk about that like it's a bad thing. We all have ego's, and we all like them stroked. Anybody trying to insult you by calling you an attention whore is just jealous that they're so much less successful at it.

And possibly jealous that they can't look like that in that costume.

There's no shame in combining your hobbies in a way that makes you feel good about yourself, there's tons of shame in trying to make other people feel bad about themselves because you do.

So ignore the whiners.

Oh, and I think it's funny that people would react all shocked that an Alexstraza costume would be slightly revealing... if it isn't you kinda did it wrong.

Haha, thanks for your support. :/ While I appreciate the comments and discussions, one of the main reasons I have this as a public blog and not a private journal is to give me extra motivation to keep writing! Nothing like getting angry PMs to guilt me into keeping up my promise!

Hey man, not everyone knows who Alexstraza is. Hell, I only knew the character by name since I never got into WoW and the image of her I had in my head was not scantily clad.

However, to anyone who thought the pictures too revealing, let this be a lesson to you: RESEARCH!

What female video game character isn't scantily clad nowadays?
