See You at San Diego Comic-Con!

Ornstein and Psylocke stylish geek SDCC cosplay lineupSDCC is just around the corner and I feel like all I’ve been doing for the past 2 months is work on cosplay. With a lot of my big projects, I’m never quite sure if I will finish in time, but thanks to a lot of support from friends and family, I was able to finish everything!

As you know, Dark Souls sucked me in a few months ago and after much sweat and tears and over 100 hours of gameplay, it’s now one of my favorite games. There are tons of epic bosses in the game, but Ornstein and Smough were hands down the toughest pair of bosses in the game. And for those unfamiliar with the game, this battle is extra tough because there are two bosses coming at you at the same time. They were so challenging for me, that somehow in my twisted mind I wanted to cosplay as one of them. Out of the two, Smough would probably require me to be in a fat suit, so Ornstein seemed like the obvious choice – plus his armor is way cool.

I probably spent more time building Ornstein’s armor than I did beating the whole game. It was definitely a labor of love.

On top of that, I’m also pairing up with Tiff (@honeyboba on Instagram) to cosplay as  some badass Psylockes from the ’80s! It’s a complete 180 from a full suit of armor, but it’ll be nice to do something less serious and more girly for once! So if you see me in a bright bubblegum pink outfit, definitely say hi!

Hope everyone has a fun and successful SDCC!
