Unicorn cosplay

We are two Finnish cosplayers: Midura (the fairer and thin one) and Seyree (the short and tiny one). We have our cosplay pics and tutorials here: cosplays are always tagged either under seyree cosplay or midura cosplay depending on which one of us wears it.

Since we have been pretty busy with life and other things, here are finally some pictures from our Aion (concept art) costumes that we used in Desucon Frostbite 2014 - well, it was months ago, but at least we are alive :D

First three pictures are Seyree's costume. All the awesome pictures of Seyree are taken by clogz! 

At the bottom are we both + Miduras boyfriend who we bullied to cosplay with us. Bottom pic is by Konsta Väänänen. Sadly we only have this picture of Midura and her boyfriend.

What materials did you use to make your horns for your loki costume?

Sorry we didn't answer to your ask, life happened: We studied to the entrance exam of university and art academies, and we didn't have time for tumblr or cosplay :( But anyways, about loki costume!

Midura: I used wire to make the core of the horns and then covered it with polyurethane foam. After that it was just shaping it to get the right form. Next I just used glue, newspaper, gesso (a lot!) and golden spray to finish the look. The crown part was only wonderflex. :)

Seyree: Taffyta Muttonfudge from Wreck it Ralph at Animecon 2013 (also, in the first picture is Midura, and all the other pics are taken by her).

Seriously, I absolutely love this cosplay! Taffyta was my favourite character in the movie and her outfit is so cute and horrible at the same time! I had so much fun while wearing this!  

Taffyta was very easy to do (made everything within two days!) and lovely to wear + extra cheap (cost only about 50 euros). The only big downside in this costume is the wig: it should be white, but I got yellow one and hadn't time to order a new one. 

(Bottom three pictures: Waiting for the day when I learn to pose to pics :D)

Midura: Cosplay from this summer (Desucon 2013) The Dance Girls from Captain America movie. (First picture I’m on right and Seyree on the left. Second is me showing-of the back and the third is only Seyree) These costumes were fun to wear. They didin’t catch so much attention as some of our cosplays and they were comfortable to wear for once! I liked this cosplay much (aside my side boob xD) but Hatsune Miku from 2011 is still my favorite cosplay.

Midura: Here is my version of Lady Loki. I wore it briefly at Tracon (2013) but the horns were maybe done too hurried and they hurt my forehead terribly. I’m going to fix them and wear the costume again for real because I really like it, especially the cape plus I like being the evil bitch. Pictures were taken by my boyfriend.

Seyree: My Sabe cosplay from Star Wars: The Phantom Menace at Tracon 2013.

I am very proud of the headdress, and while it wasn't very heavy, the way it was pinned to my head wasn't pleasant...I still have a bump on the top of my head because of it! 

The top picture is S. Männikkö's pic, and the other two were taken by Midura's boyfriend, who helped us at the con.

Seyree: Tomorrow to Tracon 2013! 

I am cosplaying Sabé from Star Wars and Midura is lady Loki. Pics coming soon after the con!

Seyree: I absolutely love my Amber cosplay from Sucker Punch! I know I don't look like her, but the costume is awesome in the movie! (The second picture is a year older than the first.) This was my first cosplay that required me to mod the wig, and I am quite proud of it. I did the bun the same way as I did the C.A. Cupid's wig - there will be a tutorial about it in a week or two .

Midura: Sweet Pea from Sucker Punch (love the theme and setting of the movie <3) is a cosplay that I don’t actually feel  good nor bad about. In my standards it was ok but not near perfect and I’m never ever doing again over knee shoes without heals using bottom of ballerina shoes and real leather!

However It’s always nice to see some old people stopping on streets and just stare you in horror. xD

Midura: I just wanted to add a picture of me wearing Astharoshe Asran (Trinity blood) with Seyree’s Seth. Personally, I don’t like this cosplay at all for so many reasons. The only thing I like about it is the hat. It was fun to do and it looked good, but that’s it. I did however put a lot effort to this cosplay, so maybe it should be here on blog, even though I really hate it…

(And I know Seyree’s cosplay is on front - It's for reasons... :D )

[unicorncosplay]

Seyree: I have a love-hate relationship with Seth (2012 cosplay). On the other hand, Trinity blood, shoes were absolutely perfect and the huge hat! Loved them!

On the other hand....never, never do a cosplay like this under two weeks. Especially if this is your first 'big' costume. It was horrible and half of the decorations are missing, the armory made me look 10 kilos overweight and the fabric was way too light in colour. 

(! Note to self: Practice posing and start smiling! :D )

Seyree: my C. A. Cupid cosplay - the costume that in the end made us (me and Midura) to do this cosplay blog, since so many people asked me for tips about how to do several parts of the costume. Sadly, I have only this and few other pics from this cosplay, but hopefully in the future we have time to take more and better pictures (and get a better camera - mine is horrible to use and the quality...ugh + someone who can actually photograph since we are not good at it).
