Inspiration: I originally was going to make this for my cousin to wear at Otakon 2002, when I was going as Urd and Ash as Skuld, but she couldn't go. So, since I'd done so much planning and I thought it was pretty, I made it for myself, even though Belldandy was not my favourite character.
Two years later and this is one of my favourite costume I've ever made, and I've grown to love Bell! :D

Favorite Aspect: I love the whole look and feel. It's so fun to wear, it's so light and flowy!

Least Favorite Aspect: Originally it took me forever to get the wig to cooperate, and I got very frustrated with it, but I eventually got it to do what I wanted. I had originally planned to do a high ponytail on the wig, but I decided to go by a picture where her ponytail was lower, and that saved me some trouble. In 2004 I redid the antenna on the wig and they looked much tighter.

Easiest Task: The underskirts and bracelets, and the capes.

Hardest Task: Making the necklace (sheet metal) and styling the wig - that wig did NOT want to cooperate!

Awards:
