I'm loving the first cosplay / latest cosplay trend that's going around on Instagram right now, and it just so happens that my latest armor build is a remake of my first armor build! I think the new version looks a lot better, but the main point of redoing it was to decrease the weight. I used about x4 the worbla I should have in my first armor, because I didn't know any better, and as a result the original weighs about 7 lbs (3.18 kg). The improved version is made out of EVA foam, only weighs 1.5 lbs (.68 kg), and is much easier on my old shoulder injury. I wore the original for two days at Wizard World Des Moines, and for a photoshoot, before swearing that I'd never wear it again. It was patterned poorly and did not fit my body well, increasing my discomfort. In addition, the first version was extremely asymmetrical and had a very bumpy surface from overheating the worbla. The new belt and breastplate are made from 2mm foam with 6mm details, lined with fabric. The main pauldrons and knee guards are made from 6mm EVA foam, and the fabric pauldrons are made from Fosshape. I still love worbla, but I wanted to practice my Foamsmithing in this remake, and I wanted the shoulders as light as possible. Now if I could only get over my fear / hatred of sewing!

Yay! The wall of #SushiGoParty at #GenCon was obviously improved by #Pachimari making a stupid face. Are you sick of my Gen Con photos yet? I DID warn you. I have so many...

We wore our dual-Leias on Thursday of #GenCon for a couple of hours, but we didn't have a handler with us to take photos. Luckily we ran into @sirkirkules who saved the day! #SlaveLeia : @KennigmaCosplay #Genderbent Slave Leia : @devomabevo Photography : @sirkirkules Leia Costumes : @KennigmaCosplay Jabba Costume : Amazon

Pachimari Maid Attack! Sunday was the first time I actually made it into the #GenCon vendor floor, due to my bulky costumes. My tentacles were kind of in the way, but at least they're soft little stuffies and not giant worbla wings.

Pachimari is almost done! The blouse, purse shoes, and socks all arrived in time. I found the perfect bow in my closet (yet another Japan souvenir, this one from a long time ago!) that saved me so much time. Edited the cheeks to be further apart. Now I just have to Pachi-fy the hair bun covers and purse, maybe add another petticoat, and I'll finally have *one* of my #GenConCosplay costumes done! #Pachimari #PachimariDress #PachimariCosplay #Overwatch #OverwatchCosplay #GenCon #MaidCosplay #Cosplay #CosplayWIP
