Mulan: BAD ACTION MOVIE STYLE

This is what could happen if Mulan were made into a bad Hollywood action flick, or a satirical B-movie.

If it were a B-movie, High Expectations Asian Father says
CHILDREN, Y U NO MAKE A-MOVIE? YOU ARE NOT B-SIAN

I've kicked myself for this already, don't worry

Okay so my friends and I wanted to make a Chinese epic drama movie poster style group shot for our Mulan cosplay. This is what we managed:


After getting the shots for the previous poster idea, we had some extra time at the studio while getting exponentially delirious from hunger so we ended up with photos that were B-movie material.

And so this happened.

More silly photos from this shoot on my journal post:

Mulan & PotC Photoshoot + Clinique PaintingDisney Cosplay Shoot!These pictures were from June last year I'M SORRYYYYY

First time we wore our our Disney cosplays was for Toycon 2011:

The weekend after, a few of us got together to do a studio shoot because we were just excited, and I wanted to finally try out a pseudo movie poster photo treatment for cosplay photos. It was definitely a challenge. But it made me really happy to show my friends how the final images turned out. :D

title was thought of last night when a bunch of us were hanging out and sort of overdosed on pizza, sugar and caffeine

We all put together our own Ping, Shang and Ling body armor, helping each other along the way

We picked out our own fabrics at a market, and I helped Charmie ~yaoiangel14 pattern out parts of the costumes before we had them tailored
I'm not sure if this is worth mentioning but everyone's makeup was done by me, hahah
