Dressed to Impress?

Sorry for the wait everyone! Apparently trying to handle work, housework, a new puppy, and cosplaying makes it near close to impossible to blog. No spare time, you know? But, the good news is that Otakon is over, and I now have tons of time to get off my butt and share with you!

My cosplay didn't end up quite as well as I hoped, but I'm pretty sure I mentioned my ridiculous high standards before.

A brain in a jar only a mother could love
 

Here's a side by side so you can see the comparison:
 
 
 
Only four people recognized me while I was walking around (my fault for picking such an obscure character), but that's actually more than I thought! I had a lot of people take my picture, and A LOT of people that stared at me in either wonderment or horror.
 
I hope horror!
 
Though the suit was a little hot, the only issue I really had with the costume was trying to see through the green in the jar. I had a layer of see-through fabric the same color as the jar's "liquid" that hid my face. It did a good job covering my face in photos and while I walked around, but it was like looking though lime jello.
 
I wasn't able to get a shot of my backpack, but trust me it's there! I'll have to see if we thought to get any shots from behind. I'll look through my many pictures of the convention and see what I can find to share!

 
Next up will be a shot of my husband's cosplay. We were able to get a lot more pictures of his character then we were of mine.
