Leaf: Series: Record of Lodoss Wars: Chronicles of the Heroic Knight Worn At: Otakon 2k4 Awards Won: did not enter Created By: Sakaki

Minus Armor

This project was a lot of "firsts" for me - the first time working entirely on my own, first time making/using paper mache, first time attempting armor, first time dealing with stretchy spandex fabric, first time creating bootcovers, etc. It's also the shortest skirt I've worn to date. Thanks to this costume, I've developed a theory that regardless of character, the number of photos taken of one is directly inverse to the length of one's skirt.

The armor was made, but I disliked it and wore the costume without it. I'm never going to fix this costume up, and consider it retired.

Made for a Lodoss Wars group with Sailor Andromeda at Otakon 2k4. Sadly, my feet were killing me and I was running around switching costumes like a chicken with my head cut off, and was thus very rarely with the group. The sharp pointy stick of doom was made by Brian.

Picture credits go to the wonderful David of NG-Master.Com, and Eurobeat King. Thanks guys! I've lost the URL of the cel site where I found the reference image (though not limited to Lodoss, it was one of the best sources for Leaf available on the web). It has been cropped to show Leaf alone. If the full image belongs to you and if you do not wish it to be up, please contact me.
