Made for: David

Worn at: Anime Vegas Club December 2004, Anizona 2005

Chara Info: Kasugano Midori has been spying on her crush, Seiji, for a long time at the train stop. Imagine her surprise and delight when she wakes up one morning beside him in bed! Only one problem. . .she's become Seiji's hand O_o.

Why Her?: It's a huge joke that got out of hand (please pardon the pun ^^;;). Read on to learn more XD.

The Story: David is a good friend of Robbie and I. He's been wanting to cosplay for a while -- he actually has a costume somewhat in the works, but as of yet it's not done. One day, Robbie decided to play a little joke on David. He enlisted my help, and together we bought a green wig and painted "I <3 SEIJI" on a white shirt. We then presented it to him at one of Anime Vegas' monthly anime marathons (where Midori no Hibi was being shown). He definitely got a kick out of it.

Then David decided he wanted the "costume" to be a leeeeeetle more elaborate XD. So I made him an "arm" out of flesh-colored vinyl. It's basically a skirt with suspenders to hold it up and boning sewn into the bottom to hold it out. That was actually quite a pain in the butt -- thick upholstery pleather + thick boning = my machine throwing a fit >.>.

So here's the finished product. It is intended to be a joke :P. For AX, we might end up making a black sleeve that goes over the shirt just so that David can mix it up XD.
