Character: Kei
Show: Dirty Pair, the Original one
Appearances: Animazement '00, Katsucon 007


Comments: Well, I have to admit that I didn't make this one. A very nice lady that the Knobs know worked very quickly to get these done for us in time for our trip down to NC. The costume itself fits wonderfully, and I would like to give my undying thanks to Jill for making it ^_^ The only parts I made were the bandanna for mine and the arm bands for myself and Melissa, who was my Yuri. Ironically, after we deicded to commission this set of costumes, we found out our friends Amy and Carolina were almost finished with their own Dirty Pair Flash versions for AZ! Go figure! Anyway, as it says above, Melissa and I have decided to wear these costumes one last time, at Katsucon 007 ^_^ As you can see, I added the wig for Katsu and I think it gave it more of a "Kei" feel, even if it was just my Shiori wig ^_~

Note: This was the first costume I ever appeared onstage in at a cosplay. I obviously didn't enter a craftsmanship judging, since I didn't make it...but Derek convinced me and Melissa to be in the skit he wrote because he needed some scantily clad chicks ^_~ And, for some reason, we actually won an award!
