Christmas can wait...

Okay, I just looked at the calendar and it says the 15th of November... 15th of November! Has it already been over two weeks since I came back from San Francisco already? Holy crap.. and I haven't done much but been sick and getting a new moniter for the comp while catching up with work

End of March? Which con would that be? Sakura con? Anime Boston? I think thats the only big ones I know that happen around Spring.

But work certainly does make time pass so quick. Thats mostly why this entire year just seemed to pass in a instant for me since Yaoicon 06.

And har...my credit card always seems to get beaten up. Being a Final Fantasy collector and cosplayer is expensive.

You're very lucky to live that close to a con. But I do agree, staying in the hotel just can't be replaced by any other atmosphere. I hate having to leave the hotel during con time unless its a necessary trip.

Though I've heard from some people that Sakura con hasn't gone so well recently.

But yes, getting hold of the older collectables, especially that were made a decade ago in Japan now when FF7 came out is hard and expensive in some cases.

The Original Highwind limited painted resin being the most expensive I've encountered, next to Cloud vs Sephiroth. The older one, not the AC polystone. Each of those could be worth anywhere from 700-2000 dollars on todays market each. Depending on which auction site you use.

But, if you want a cheap collectable, buy one of the new FF7 potion drinks. They were in San Fran in Japan town. They'll be worth something one day when stocks have ran out in a few years.

Mmmm AC Rufus is sexy. The way he tosses himself off the building, shooting at Kadaj. Yummy. I'm debating the whole cuting/growing the hair thing. I leave it as is, dye it black and can totally be AC Tseng or cut it and attempt BC Tseng. Very undecided. It is due more dye though as the last batch just didn't stick.

You want to DO Genesis *lewd snicker* Would that be in the training room or perhaps over an office table ;)

Good luck with Genesis. That's gonna be awesome...esp if you can locate a Sephiroth who is the same height for decent pics.

[makohikari]

Har har! I would do Genesis anywhere really.

I didn't know your hair was dyed black though. What was your original colour?

But yeah, Gene will be hard to do, but would be easy to wear apart from the dominatrix ass boots he has like Sephiroth. God those things even have heels too.

But yes, AC Rufus is sexy regardless.

Heh, was going to ask what you're doing up so late but it's me who is up late-ish seeing as I just got home from work.

*grin* I'm allowed seeing as I kept getting got saying 'I'm doing *insert character name here*'. ;P

Hair colour is dark brown. I had it sort of brown for the Trevor cosplay but last year I had it black for Tseng. My natural colour now has too much silver/grey to not keep it dyed ;_;

I've not seen a decent pic of Genesis. Not looked either. I should change that...even if it's just to check out his boots *leer*

Yes, AC Rufus is very sexy. Must be the black silky vest and all that white. Hopefully you won't be too warm with all those layers. You'll make a sexy AC Rufus seeing as you already make a sexy game Rufus.

[makohikari]

Heh heh. Well I do try. :P Your natural colour losing its tone or something? If you have to dye it, you must have to go a few times a year.

Genesis pictures are around...but mostly screen shots, not many show off his glamerous boots. But they are Sephiroth style with a hint of female touch.

As for AC Rufus...I'm figuring out just how many layers he is freaking wearing in that... Its actually a black leather waistcoat. But I think going from outer to inner.

He wears a white suit jacket, then the black leather waistcoat, followed by a white shirt then a black shirt.

But! Somehow in there he wears a trenchcoat I think underneath the outer jacket. Someone please clarify on that! Because it does look like its part of the jacket in some angles but others does not.
