Day 7: Cosplay Meme
Jun. 29th, 2011 09:01 pmWent to see Transformers at the theater at 9PM yesterday. It was pretty full for our little theater. I actually made a decision about Six months ago that I wanted to dress up for the premier. I didn't actually think it would happen because I just kept having new costume after new costume and delay after delay pop up..but last week I finally decided that I really wanted to do this.
I originally thought I had until Thursday to finish it but then finding out that it was pushed up to Tuesday put me into panic mode. So I rushed through and actually managed to get a version of Ravage done for the premier. Yes it was fail..and missing tons..and way beyond my level of skill..but OMG the reaction it got from the kids. I stalked around the outside of the theater and chased them from the other side of the window. I could hear their screams and their laughter and it was great and that was all I wanted. It was so much fun. I just wish I had the ability to make it awesome and wear it somewhere..but we shall see. I didn't really get any pictures beyond one on my phone and a little video of my really terrible cat walking XD But it was great..best time I've had at a movie opening ever.
And then the movie itself..LOVED IT. I think I enjoyed it more then the first two. I love the introduction of all the other bots. A few things saddened me that I wont go into for those that haven't seen it. And I with there was more Bumbleebee adorableness and radio-speak (if that makes sense) but it was a very Optimus heavy movie and I 100% approve of that. I really want to go and see it again but I don't know when I will be able to.
In other news I have been sick since Thursday. Extremely miserable really. Head cold mostly and coughing and my head was really fuzzy. It made working on Ravage a little rough but I somehow pushed through. But I am feeling a ton better then I was thanks to a boat load of Dayquil and Nyquil. I still have a pesky cough but that seems to be the last annoying piece.
And anyway..onto the meme.
7. The character you have cosplayed that is most similar to you (if none that you have cosplayed, then one that you will cosplay)
I would have to say that Fai would be the character that is most similar. Hiding behind the facade or a smile to cover up who I am and what I am thinking inside. Extremely expressive and yet completely false on the outside when I need to be. A lot to hide for fear of what having those things known would do to the ones around me. And always keeping everyone at an arms length to keep from causing myself and others pain because of my actions. But on the other side of things, wanting to protect and care for those that make it inside that barrier that I put up. I can be outgoing and friendly and love to tease and play with those that I care about, but I am also very quiet and reserved when left on my own. I can be the best of listeners when someone needs to talk and can be that shoulder for someone who needs someone to just be there for them.
Maybe those similarities are why I enjoy cosplaying as him..well that an his insanely extensive and awesome wardrobe XD
