Quote of the Indistinct Time Period

Something everyone in the cosplay community ought to remember.

At the tender age of 13, Ysabel ~SavingSunlight seems to have a greater understanding of this hobby and a bigger heart than some people who are far older than she is.

"Cosplay is for fun. It's a misunderstood hobby with a good and bad side. If everything is going good in your cosplay, keep it up just don’t lose your head in its fictional world. Keep priorities like family and school in order. If things aren’t great, do not be disheartened from doing what you love. As long as you are having fun, keep going!

It’s a different kind of happy-high when you are among fellow cosplayers but at the end of the day, it only matters if you enjoyed yourself or not. It’s not about popularity or pageviews, having fans or not, being better than others... no. It’s about expressing yourself through a character you love and sharing it with others.

Hopefully, you’ll make friendships that will last even when the costumes are faded, wigs worn out and cameras stop flashing."

Sasuke's Picture Diary

Tue Apr 16, 2013, 9:24 PM
Leave comments to keep me company?

I am about to spend the next 6 hours or so sewing and painting to finish up costumes and then packing for an adventure. I will soon after leave for the trip and it's going to take a while to get to where I'm going to it'd be great if you leave comments to keep me company on the way there! I'll be reading and replying as much as possible! :D

Team Sasuke at Ozine Fest Day 3

So here are pictures from our day out last Sunday! Some are from my phone, others are from Facebook friends (Thanks, Jannibee and Benelyn!) and people who have sent me snapshots over Twitter!


Let's start with a group shot! Our theme was Sasuke and his teachers (and his flirt of an alternate universe self from Road to Ninja)

12 year-old pre-Shippuden Sasuke — Jin :iconbehindinfinity:
older Swagsuke/Charasuke from the Road to Ninja movie — Miguel :iconmerkymerx:
Hatake Kakashi — Dom :iconweakman:
Orochimaru — Markee :iconshinobimarkee:


On my Facebook page, I had posted wig progress like I usually do before cons or shoots. Here are some progress shots of my progress for Kakashi. It started out as a somewhat flat, chin-length wig.


I had also been styling a new Naruto wig (my old one had needed to retire), and a Sasuke wig. I guess people assumed I would be Naruto as usual, hahah.

Revisiting Naruto cosplay + Road to Ninja Movie!So I've heard of this film for a long while, but never got to watch it for lack of a proper subbed copy/DVD release. (There was that Korean dubbed one that some people watched online, but Naruto has my favorite Japanese voice acting so I didn't want to watch it any other way!)
Sometime last month, some happy news reached our shores — Road to Ninja would be showing at our local cinemas!! I know it's been a while since its first release but I'm glad I waited before resorting to well, less legal ways of watching it! Hahah! Here is a stupid rap I wrote and slapped on a manga panel:
Would Killer Bee be proud of me? HAHAH
Premiere Night!
I had the honor of being invited to the special advanced screening at Director's Club before it hit the cinemas! Major thanks to Ica and Movie Punch for having us over!
I dressed up as Minato (the Fourth Hokage) and Marien dressed up as



Duckbutt hair is fun
(And a guy is getting a peek at Kakashi-sensei's true face)


Marko ~Happy-Hario cosplaying as Masashi Kishimoto HAHAH


I was not aware that we were asked to pose for pictures in front of a backdrop of cupcakes and ice cream.


As much as I enjoy being Naruto, it was a nice change of pace to be Saucekay.


Although for most of the day I tried to keep my facial expression more Sasuke-like, I couldn't help smiling when this little guy came up to me


Sasuke's picture diary


Dear diary,
Today my teachers took me on a day out.


Kakashi-sensei brought me to Jamba Juice before Chidori training. Because he says that to call upon A Thousand Birds (Chidori), you must fill your body with fruit.
okay.jpg


We made a detour before proceeding with training.
Kakashi-sensei, you are going to get us killed.


Chidori training begins! Kakashi-sensei taught me Chidori today, with the help of Mr. Stark. I'm not sure if he was alright in the end...


I also got the chance to learn from foreign people like Daenerys Targaryen and Khal Drogo


Khal Drogo taught me about being the stallion who mounts the world


Ib and Garry taught me about art.


I went to a cafe with Orochimaru. He had me drink more milk to grow big and strong. (There is a joke I could make about sucking but I'll keep it in my head)


I got to spend time with my older self. I'm not sure how to feel about him.


He may be just as bad as Kakashi-sensei


I can't seem to finish my drink without interruptions


WHAT GENJUTSU IS THIS

I think it had some sort of effect because everyone was like


"SASUKE-KUNNNNNN"


"SASUKE-KUNNNNNN"


"SASUKE-KUNNNNNN"


"SASUKE-KUNNNNNN"


"DOUBLE SASUKE-KUNNNNN"


"SASUKE-KUNNNNNNNN I DON'T CARE IF YOU'RE TOO YOUNG"


"KYAAAA SASUKE-KUNNNNNNNN"


I wonder if it would have been different if they got a good look at the bag I was carrying. You're judging me too, aren't you? It was a gift from the nin-cats who serve my clan!


Kakashi-sensei treated me to dinner after a long day.
He was unmasked but my hair covered the view of his face.


Practical application of Katon Goukakyuu no Jutsu: PASS!


"Usuratonkachi, look at what's for dinner when you're not around"

(I think it's time to pull a frame from our most recent Naruto shoot)


"They're... having ramen without me..."

Avatar Info

It doesn't bend air or anything, but I still think it's pretty cool.

My avatar was a gift from ~JadeLand, and she also made matching Tuxedo Team icons for Kat ~moonlightflight, Miguel ~merkymerx, Nejin ~ceruleanmorning and China !snowpeachdrop. They hold a lot of sentimental value for us so we'd appreciate if you don't steal them! Thank you! :D

:iconbehindinfinity::iconmoonlightflight::iconmerkymerx::iconceruleanmorning::iconsnowpeachdrop:


NOTE: I've been asked this a lot so I thought I should explain. China (snowpeachdrop) is still in our company, but no longer indulges in the hobby of cosplay due to other aspects of life that she chooses to dedicate her time to. She deactivated her account because she no longer feels that her work there represents who she is as an artist. That's all there is to it. :)

I read your note regarding the unprofessional event organizers. I hope you, your team and other cosplayers won't experience something like that again.

And good job for making that incident known in such a professional-sounding way.
