Desucon 2013 (part 2)

Finally I got some pictures so I can finish my Desucon 2013 update!

We had one thing we really wanted to take part in on Friday: Shibari workshop. Shibari means Japanese bondage and this was the second time we took part in it. The last time was a few years back so we decided to take part in the beginners workshop.. I really wanted my own rope too which you don't get from the advanced workshop. Now I have nice 10 meters of bondage rope!

We didn't really think that the costumes we chose for the day would be the costumes we use for the workshop... So I had no other choice but take part in it wearing my fursuit! It was so hot and I had to take my hand- and feetpaws off so I could do things properly. But it was lots of fun! Minorea wore her Scandinavia Meets the World - Sister Sweden cosplay which had.. quite the small dress~ (*^w^*)

Minorea is trying to tame a wild wolfdog...

..the wild wolfdog tames her instead!

Gaikotsu won the final battle!

On Saturday we first wore our Soul Eater cosplays. The Soul Eater group had an amazing Death the Kid and we took great photos together! Sadly, we only got one picture from the actual photographer (Emilia Lahtinen). The another picture was taken with Minorea's camera:

After we had finished with the Soul Eater group cosplay we changed for something more comfortable: our new pink & yellow kigurumis! Minorea made both of them and they are so cute and colourful! I think that the Hello Kitty -face and the bunny ears are perfect! ;w;

The idea for these kigurumis started when Minorea read about Japanese twin- style: friends dress and make up as similarly as possible so that they look almost like identical siblings. We decided to try it with bright coloured kigurumis and gyary make-up - and succeeded! Minorea's mom started to talk to me and she didn't realize I wasn't Minorea before I started talking back to her... and I couldn't recognize myself from one picture... xD

TG stands for Tentacl Girls - that's us!

All together it was a very nice convention and I loved to fursuit again. It was nice to do a 'real cosplay' after such a long break and I had so much fun wearing my new kigurumi~ It's so comfortable that I wear it at home too (I'm wearing it at this very moment too)! Thanks to my 'sister' Minorea who made it! ;) <3

This one was edited by Minorea. I just had to steal it from her blog because it's so cute! <3

Next time I'll tell you about Animecon X!

Desucon 2013 (part 1)

I had amazing time in Desucon 2013! All the cosplays there were as amazing as the weather and I met many of my Finnish furry friends. ^^ I'm bad at telling about how the convention was, but you can't expect anything but a well organized event from Finland's most popular Japanese popculture convention.

I had fun fursuiting on Friday. It was cloudy so it wasn't too hot and I managed to fursuit for almost 3 hours straight. I even met some really cute kids who waved eagerly at me! They were too afraid to touch me though... xD It was my first encounter with kids while wearing my fursuit and I'm really happy that I was able to bring a smile on their faces. :3

On Saturday we cosplayed Liz and Patty from Soul Eater with Minorea. People liked us and we were told we fit the characters perfectly! I think the cosplay succeeded nicely too. We had an amazing photoshoot with other Soul Eater cosplayers too, but I haven't got any pictures yet. I'll show them to you in my next blog entry along with better pictures of our cosplays. ;)

In the evening we wore the pink and yellow kigurumis Minorea made for us along with some crazy gyary make-up. I'll upload those photos later too!

Sunday was for fursuiting too. Unfortunately it was way too hot and I had to take off my fullsuit right after I finished with the photoshoot. But Emilia Lahtinen took great pictures of my fursuit! They are amazing and some of them are really cute. Take a look!
