Inspiration: Another of my all time favorite anime/manga characters. When I first saw Tsunade in the anime I thought she was nothing more than a greedy, show-off women. But, as her character was developed more and more I grew to love her. I really like that she is super strong and when I decided to cosplay her I wanted to get into shape so I could be buff like her.

Favorite Aspect: I really love the colors and fabric choices I used on this cosplay. They all worked together really well and seemed to match the lifestyle she lives as a ninja (all the fabric is light weight).
Least Favorite Aspect: The blonde wig on me really looks terrible, regardless if I change my eyebrow color or not. It's also not a very flattering cosplay at all, minus that everyone is staring at the over-sized... assests, you have. XP The fanboys that this cosplay attracts cannot be good for any girl's health.
Easiest Task: Making both of the tops was fairly easy. Both were similar to kimonos and I have made many kimonos in my cosplays days.
Hardest Task: Sewing my first pair of pants with a zipper. It was a great learning experience and hopefully making pants will be second nature to me. The first pair I made was too small and I had to go out and buy more fabric. Since the fabric I used was out I had to re-make the obi also so both colors would match perfectly. The horror.
