Usagi Yojimbo character cosplay

[cloverr]

Hello:

I figured I should give credit where credit is due and post here. I used the information on the wonderful Dojo website to help with the references and documentaion for a cosplay character.

This past weekend, I attended the Middle Tennessee Anime Convention here in Nashville, and I entered the Cosplay competition as a character from Usagi. I portrayed the Courtesan, Lady Maple; her story is told in Usagi Yojimbo #28-29. I won an award for Best Journeyman Recreation!

If you are interested, here are links to a couple of the costume pics:

Pretty! . Good job. Cosplaying rocks .

So... conical, and exposed, unadorned nape of neck... <Homer Simpson gargling noise of lust>. I thought this was a FAMILY site!

All kidding aside, jolly good job on the costume. I thought putting on a pile of armour on the weekends was an energetic endeavour, but that's a massy bunch of kimono to wear with tall geta. And no walking-assistants in sight, either!
