Coiled to Strike

So here is my Medusa from Soul Eater cosplay. I only wore it briefly at ALA 2010 though so not too many shots !

I was really excited to do this costume cause i thought it'd be really fun to do shots like these where they are creepy/dark. Not the typical magical girl ones i've always put up lol! It's one of my favorite aspects of cosplaying is imitating the character for shoots!

I kind went all over the place when editing this shot, i wanted the colors to look sickly, and toxic.

The costume is just a bodysuit, and i added a wired tail so it could be shaped and curled for different characteristics. The bracelets are a thick wire that slip on. The tattoo's were done in sharpie... LOL Which was not my first choice, but since time ran short, and I had to do something quick i chose sharpie, cause it doesn't rub too much, and lays down the best solid color. I wore it on friday and was able to scrub it off fairly easily.

My bf also the photographer- wanted to do the nails for medusa, and they turned out really nice, and they are showcased here really well in this shot!
