So I figured I'd join since I did a Lady cosplay this year at Anime North, I'll also be bringing it out to CN so keep a look out if your going, come say hi!....and probably next year, I love my kalina ann lolz.

ANYWAYS, to get this up and running a bit, if anyone ever needs help making a DMC3 Lady cosplay I'd be happy to help out! :)

Mind my squinty

Ooooo! I saw pics of you! Unfortunately, I didn't actually see you at the con. T_T BUt awesome Cosplay! xD. And I may ask for tips and help making LAdy weapons and such for Anime NMOrth next year. I'm still talking a friend into going as her. :-p

TIPS

[_laurenface_]

BAH and even through my novel writing I for got to add one tiny little thing. Be prepared that if you have a large weapon at AN, cameras are going to stop you every few feet to get your picture. It's a curse but also a blessing.

Wow awesome cosplay! You fit her really well!! Was the weapon heavy at all or awkward to luck around?

Also, I can't really tell from the pictures, but did you make like a scar on her face like she has? Just curious.

[_laurenface_]

I did have the scar but since it was smokin hot it most liekly melted off for teh msot part.

But kalina ann was incredily lightweight and it only got a wee bit awkward to hold when I had to maneuver through large crowds. Mainly because it was borken but if I held it up on my shoulder pointing upwards it would stay out of the way of people. Plus if my friend lost me they could see me above everyone :P

You look so very pretty as Lady! Neat job!

I was wondering if you had any cool and clear and bigass reference pictures of Lady's ammo belt? Yeeees, I'm gonna cosplay her in the upcoming Finnish Animecon08.

If, and that's really an if, I can get it done in time. *sweat*

I think I'm not attempting Kalina Ann, 'cause I don't have enough time AND I know I can't work like 8 hours a day without eventually starting to cry, cut my wrists and commit suicide. XP Carrying a HUGE gun like that would be like so cool, though. ^o^

Pretty much Lady only has two high rendered pictures, one of a close up of her face and the other is this:

I went by that or anything else similar. But pretty much as long as you give yourself enough time for the costume and pace yourself you should be fine. I kind of left making Kalina Ann a bit late bit it came together but never again. I don't like having to worry about gettting things done or not.

I love having the gun but carry it became a pain when we had somewhere to be and people kept asking for pictures >.

I only had low res pics, so thanks for the link. <3

How many ammopouchespocketthings did you make for the belt? What materials did you use for them? I'm sorry for asking random questions.... I just thought I could use the help of somebody who has done a Lady before. o_o

Re: ^^

oh it's not a problem, I'm happy to help.

For the ammo pouches I had two larger ones, one on the front and one on the back and then 6 smaller ones, three inbetween the larger ones on either side. As for materials I used those flexiable plastic placemats, they were christmas ones actually. and I used Vinyl pieces I had left over for the sides to hold them together. It kind of sucked though because the glue melted on them so they were falling off and apart so it needs a few repairs but it worked well, they were slightly stiff and the belt weighed a fair amount despite the fabric but it was good.
