Its Hiei, as "Kurama" has already told you!

Thanks so much for posting our pictures! It was awesome doing a shoot for you!

Are you planning to attend any other conventions anytime soon? =]

It all depends on my free time. I normally try to go all the ones that are really close to me. I might be going to one in New York this summer and if I have enough morning I am going to California next year. But I go to Youmacon every year and then I got to Ohayocon every couple years looking for great cosplayers. I wish it was not cold because outside shots are my specialty. If you go to my profile you can reach my Website and I post everything there. Just know its still under construction so its not really cool looking just yet.

I see, I see~. Well, I was just wondering, because we're attending Anime Punch in Columbus in two weeks in improved costumes. I will be certain to check that out, though! =]

You know I heard about that and I was thinking about going there but I am short on cash and I have school issues going on so I kind of can't. But next time you see me you will get a business card for contact information and stuff. I've done some private shoots for people but that normally cost but on the bright side you get your pictures.

That sounds pretty cool. I look forward to meeting up with you again!

Yeah, we barely made it... Registration for the con was cheap, but the hotel room prices were ridiculous...

Yeah I know what you mean. I had to get a room at another Hotel. It really annoyed me. I hope you guys go to Youmacon this year in the fall. I did not get to do a lot of pictures of you guys and I had so many ideas and stuff. I really wish it was nice outside and not like -300 outside. If it wasn't I swear I would have taken you both outside. Also it was a little crowded this year.

Mmhm... An outside shoot would have been amazing. But it was freezing... And the crowds were awful! Ah, well. I just hope we have better luck at the next con.

As for Youmacon, we're not too sure about that one just yet, but keep an eye out for us!

Don't you worry I will. I never forget my favorite Cosplayers in the world. I mean Kurama and Hiei blew me away. Now all you need was a Rose Whip from Kurama and Hiei's sword. I would have forced people out of the way. You would have had your own photo shoot. Although I am new at photography but I am planing on actually going into that or teaching. Still have no idea yet.

Sheepingly In reply to KogaP [2009-04-01 01:12:26 +0000 UTC]

Awe, thank you... We actually discussed having a rose whip and a sword, and we both disagreed on it. We didn't want to deal with the hassle of hauling either of them around. Not to mention prop check for the sword... =]

KogaP In reply to Sheepingly [2009-04-01 01:24:05 +0000 UTC]

There are a few sites who will actually make wooden swords really cheap and because Hiei uses a basic katana you really can get through prop check faster. They only really check to see if it s sharp or if it is too big. Prop check does not take as long as the line always look. Unless its really long. But if you do rose whip make it out of something light and durable so you can tie it around your shoulder or waist that way you don't have to hold it the whole time. Props really do bring out Cosplayers best I personally think that at least.

Sheepingly In reply to KogaP [2009-04-01 01:28:01 +0000 UTC]

Ehhhhh... We considered all of that as well. It all comes down to the point that we're too lazy to carry these things around.

As I said, we've both agreed that we're never going to incorporate these props into our cosplay. :3

Oh well. You guys still look great without them so its fine. Keep up the great work. If you guys have a change of costumes for Kurama and Hiei that could help too it will be a big change from the School uniform and stuff.

Well, as I have posted in my journal, we've completely revamped my outfit. In addition to the cloak, I now have three outfits for Hiei.

After this next convention, we will be revamping Kurama's school uniform and making two of his Dark Tournament outfits, too. =]

KogaP In reply to Sheepingly [2009-04-02 00:11:20 +0000 UTC]

AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! I love the Dark Tournament outfits. I can't wait to meet up with you guys again. I will be in contact with you to let you know which cons I am going to which will allow me to go look around the areas where the convention is going to be held and stuff like that. That way I will have an idea on where each costume will look the best. I think my favorite outfit from Kurama is the one from the Movie with the dragon on it.

Sheepingly In reply to KogaP [2009-04-02 00:45:57 +0000 UTC]

Well~, sadly you probably won't be seeing that one, as we're excluding movie outfits. (Neither of us were a big fan, and we want to stick to the original manga/anime series anyway.)

KogaP In reply to Sheepingly [2009-04-03 03:58:05 +0000 UTC]

Well the movies sucked but the clothes I liked. But Originals are always amazing. So I want to know does Hiei have the dragon on his arm or no. That has always been cool to see cosplayers with the dragon and it looks great on film. It makes me happy. lol.

Sheepingly In reply to KogaP [2009-04-03 04:01:16 +0000 UTC]

Probably won't be seeing the dragon, either. Doing it for a con would be out of the question. I wash my hands like a fiend...

Really, the costumes and the hair as far as we go... Anything else, we're either too lazy to do, don't care about, or dun like. .-.

Your funny. Oh well. I guess I should stop giving random ideas. I like you both anyways because you look the parts. Just your a little taller then Hiei is I think?

Sheepingly In reply to KogaP [2009-04-03 04:07:31 +0000 UTC]

Funny? Stupid is more like. Well, more lazy than anything for both of us. =]

Yup. I'm about 5'1" on a good day, and Hiei is 4'10" without his hair. So... a little tall for the part.

KogaP In reply to Sheepingly [2009-04-03 19:31:21 +0000 UTC]

No one will notice. Your Hiei in my book. Just with out the dragon.....or is it hidden somewhere else? jk.

Sheepingly In reply to KogaP [2009-04-03 21:38:16 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, we're not worried about height difference. We'll just have a slightly too tall Hiei and a really short Kurama.

Hmm... Maybe it is? I'd have to check... o.o
