Description Ahh I was just thinking about people asking me about my cosplay, and realized that I never posted a full picture of my Riku costume on DA~ >.< I'm such a spaz. XD

This was taken at Anime Boston 2007 by and is really the only decent full-shot of the costume I have. So I hope you don't mind me uploading it! >.< The wig was a bit frazzled-looking from being worn all weekend, though...

This is my cosplay.com gallery if anyone cares...: [link]


Before anyone asks, yes I made it myself. The only things I didn't make were the wig, which I bought from the Cosworx store, the belt, which I bought on a trip to Italy, and the shoes, which were just plain white sneakers that I modified. Everything else I made from scratch.


I love this costume to bits; it's very comfortable and I can easily wear it for a whole day, the only thing that becomes a nuisance is the wig, which gets itchy...


Riku:
Kingdom Hearts (c) Square Enix/Disney

how much was your wig??
I'm doing Riku this year and it's a first for me for buying this sorta of stuff. You did a very nice job! I love that you made almost all of it!

My wig cost about $40 and then shipping, I believe. The quality is amazing, though, so it was worth it.

Thank you! <3

I've seen some people just slap some pockets on a pair of jeans, but I didn't like how that looked, so I just went and made the pants myself. :3 And ahah, I realized my armband is missing here, If I remember correctly I couldn't find it but...I do have it. XD

I loved how easy it was to pose. XD Just lean back a little and stick my thumb in my pocket.

It looks so comfy <3 I know I'd wear it whenever I wanted to XD
My kanda outfit is fairly comfortable when it's cold out, and I can wear it without the coat pretty comfortably too.

Yeah, when it's cold, like for skating event, I just put on a long-sleeve black shirt underneath. but other than that it wears like normal clothing. Unlike my other costumes.... XD

Thanks, that thing was a pain. >.< I got this thick, almost suede-like fabric for it and it drove me nuts. But it turned out okay, I think. XD

Yeah. Sometimes I think the crazyer a costume makes you, the better it turns out.
