Sakura-con 2011 APH Halloween

and I made the Halloween versions of England and America from Axis Powers Hetalia and wore them to Sakura-con. WHERE WE HAD A LOT OF FUN AND RODE A LOT OF ESCALATORS and ate a lot of pizza, swooned over a Ferrari in precise synchronization and where I apparently drunk-waltzed with a green alien.

America's coat was soooo much more time-consuming than I'd originally pegged it to be. England's cloak was sooo much more time consuming than we had pegged it to be. (Poor *kinno-nabi and her newly developed hatred of pins...xD) But I was euphoric destroying the bottom of the orange coat in the hotel room. There are three layers of tatters, and the green bit even has a gradient like the original art does *kinno-nabi made the little stars and sewed them on with magic~ and the inside of the cloak is a pretty brocade. The hat was made in the duration of about four episodes of the Colbert Report.

Too bad I didn't think about my badge being there, haha.
