Description: I absolutely loved building this costume! It involved so much diversity in materials, I never got bored! I worked with fabric, plastic and wood and I tried my best to create an image as accurate as possible of the original Medicine Seller. I made the sword, one scale and the medicine box, which is fully functional, made of wood and it weighs 15 kg. Although it's really difficult to put on, I love wearing this costume because it makes the Mononoke fans happy and because it brings that priceless look of awe and fear on the faces of those who have no idea what I'm doing >:D

Description: This was my first armor costume ever and it was a big challenge for me in terms of technique. It was a huge step in learning for me as a cosplayer and it will always be special to me, as it opened to me new ways of using materials. I really loved the majestic look in the armor and I tried to keep it as much as possible when making the cosplay. It is mainly made of vacuum formed pvc and craft foam and the wings are an aluminium frame with cardboard "feathers". Oh, the wings open to a 4 m wide span... really hard to walk through doors like this ;)

Description: I really love being Rarity! It's my favourite cosplay of mine when it comes to being in character. Elegant and lady-like is really fun to play! She is my favourite character from the series and I wanted to make a costume that made her justice. I made the whole costume by myself (the dress, the jewels, styled the wig and restyled the shoes).
