taste my blade

Sitting in the nice shade on a ridiculously hot Tokyo Afternoon. The sword is plastic and I bought it at a toy store


Costume Info:
This was a costume I had never thought I would do but Ive been playing ALOT of Castlevania lately and going back through the older games to learn more about the characters. Sonia was supposed to be the first Belmont but unfortunately she was taken out of the official canon a few years ago for a variety of reasons.(Leon Belmont replaced her in the official story line). I was pretty angry about this and decided to reinvent her costume. Her original costume was pretty simple so I re sketched her using elements from Kojimas art. I used recycled fabrics for the bulk of the costume, I had plenty of left overs from previous cosplays and happen to have some nice red filigree satin on hand. I did this whole costume by hand, made the pattern myself, cut and sewed everything. I recycled also an old pair of knee high boots I havent worn in years and added appliques and gold lace to them. The whip and accessories were store bought. I tried to get all of the subweapons together from the game! I really love this costume I plan to wear it a few more times, its great for the grueling Tokyo Summers and its pretty sexy to boot!
