Inspiration: I love this anime series! There's few shows that I really get into, and Inuyasha is one of them. With my attitude, perpetual glare, and the comfortable looking costume, I had to try it!

Favorite Aspect: The freedom of the costume! I can run, jump, sit (no pun intended), lay down, and generally be relaxed in this costume. In comparison to others I've worn, this is a big deal! Plus I don't have to look happy in allll of the pics! Granted it's tough to smile and act like a nut, but I do love to glare XD

Least Favorite Aspect: Keeping the wig 'groomed'. I spent so much time on it that I'm very overprotective. I get upset if I pull out too much hair after a brushing x_X

Easiest Task: Shaving claws out of fake nails and glueing them on. I buy a new set of nails about every other con (they get glue crusty), and I can get them shaved and glued on in a good 15 minutes.

Hardest Task: Hand stitching 8 rows of hair onto my wig to make it thicker. It took me a total of 12 hours to do it. I don't know if I was "too detailed" with my stitching or what, but the wig's still good a year later!
