Rogue Runner-- I dunno that was corny


I thought this art was pretty cool [credit] ergo I shared it with ya'll as my first opening rogue is a beast and i'm hoping to cosplay her at AUSA. :D Tada! Be happy. I've been writing papers all day so forgive me if I start talking about psychological theories and shit-- i'll try to going back to sounding as personal as humanly possible.


So this is the jacket that I got via ebay. The seller was wonderful, super easy to work with, really have no complaints other than I was totally not expecting the jacket to be full length (I thought it doesn't look like it-- i guess it does). So, I have to find some way to get it tailored. The under armpit area seems really really large for some reason, so when i pick up my arms, like the whole jacket comes with me... Lolz. Overall though, I wanted a jacket that was pre-made partially cause I'm busy with work/college and the other part because I think it looks better with a real leather, tailored design. I dunno, we'll see where it goes.


The super suit! I totally keep going around the house screaming "WHERES MY SUPER SUIT!?" It's really getting on boyfriends nerves. So I got my suit from a place [here]. I didn't actually like their base model (pictured above), so instead I sent them an order for a custom one, and they told me they'd alter the existing one with no extra cost to me, which I was like-- way happy for to say the least.

It hasn't come yet, i'm super scared of the alterations to make sure they all go down right, if they don't I'll hit cosplay.com like a maniac asking for some sort of help on figuring out how to sew on spandex because I'm so at a lost-- aka the reason I decided to get it premade-- also for $50, like you wouldn't even be able to get the materials for it.


Bought this wig, it looks super lush and beautiful, and real, and everything that I wanted it to be but it hasn't come in yet. :{ Not so much a nail biter for this one, got it super cheep here, and if it doesn't work, it doesn't work right? The real debate is whether i want to do a curly wig too to look more like the beautiful cute rogue cosplayer that you see toodling (yep i made that up) on facebook. Still haven't figured that one out, right now i'm currently out of money in the ordering department though.


For the white streak, i got extensions from ebay also. I've heard though that the clip in ones just don't look very nice in the wig but i'm stubborn, so i'm going to try it anyways. If it doesn't work, I was thinking about just getting the long white bangs that arda has and parting them in the middle because it doesn't look half bad for the part and if arda wasn't out of stock of them when I ordered these, I probably would've done that first anyways.



Boots I'm still at a loss for, was hoping to just get some yellow patent thigh highs and alter them but that's seemingly proving impossible. If I do end up getting patent, shiny things, I'd add them with gloves made out of the same-ish material, if I can't, I'll just go with some simple cotton yellow gloves. I've given up on making gloves too. Haha.

Belt I haven't thought about, and patches I haven't thought about, and then with these missing components the costume will be complete and I will be able to duke it out with the rest of the georgia pearls.

If you have any suggestions for gloves, boots, belt, wig; please please please contact me. I am back on facebook, and you can message me there as well as commenting here.

Happy Cosplay and to all a good-- Morning. :D

Now I get to go to sleep so i can be all well rested for the doctor tomorrow.
