Took a few quick shots of my Yara gear this last weekend at a more appropriate spot, I think this was the coldest 15 minutes of my life. -15 windchill is balls.





I love the salt damage on the cloak - cool detail. It's real good.

Is it sad that even from a casual glance I immediately thought "Wisconsin"?

For all the Sconnies in the thread what are the good local cons to go to? I have a costume idea in the works but I don't want to go all out unless I have a place to show it off.

Nah. Wisconsin has a "look".

There's a small gaming con coming up in Milwaukee - Midwinter. It's Jan 12-15. Another one, Nexus, in milwaukee May 26-29.

I am unfamiliar with Madison cons. There is one or two of them is about all I do know.

If you're willing to head to the Wausau Area, Evercon is Jan 6-8 in Schofield. It's run by the local high school gaming club, but don't let that fool you, it's well done, and they just had to move to a larger venue. https://tabletop.events/conventions/evercon-2017

Anime Milwaukee is in Feb. I think. I've never been, but it's probably a better place for cosplay then a gaming con.
There's Teslacon too, if you're in to that kind of thing.

Omg thank you, this is one of the things that took me the longest to figure out how to do. I kept thinking I could use some trick to do it not so grittily and uhh I ended up using... yep just salt. A lot of saltwater. I boiled like a 30% salt mixture and threw saltwater everywhere and it was kind of a weird weekend but it really did end up looking better than anything else I tried.

Already mentioned but I'd 2nd Anime Milwaukee, it's the biggest one and it has a pretty good cosplay scene! I can't go this year because I have a wedding to attend but their contest is usually pretty competitive and I think it's just a really fun convention overall.

Daisho Con is small but in my top like... 2 favorite conventions of all time 2nd only to GenCon. It's already happened this year (November) but it's at the Kalahari and it's super fun.

GeekKon is in Madison and it's maybe not the best con but the cosplay is usually pretty good! I was a drunk dancing Diglett there this year and it was a great time.

If you're willing to travel a little though, the real midwest cosplay showcases are C2E2 and Anime Central in Chicago. HUGE conventions, insane cosplay, and if you can only pick one and you aren't a 17 year old weeb, go to C2E2.

The one year I went to ACEN was in college the year of my 21st birthday. I ended up spending that night hanging out with Geoff and Gus of Red vs. Blue. There was a lot of drinking.

I do not remember most of that night, but I'm told I had fun.

The devil is in the details and you did drat good!

I especially enjoy the weathering on the weapons, the salt stains and how the cuirass absolutely looks lived in.

Only hover over this next part if you would like some constructive critiscism.
The wig needs to be stringier, like unwashed hair. In other words, you look too clean to be Yara. :v:

I also want to straighten it more, it's a bit too curly right now. I styled it the morning we were leaving for our con on my salt husband's head so I'd agree it's a bit neglected haha
