Prop naginata, armor, accessories and costume details by myself.
I was sad that I couldn't get any good pictures at AFA for Momiji, but OMG I am so happy with how this shoot turned out! Brian did magic with the photography and I had fun doing all the different action poses
The shoot location faces a busy 4-lane road and apparently lots of motorists slowed down to gawk while we were shooting... I found out from *Meganelover after the shoot that we had caused a minor accident, a taxi bumped into the back of a van! Oops. Good thing it wasn't serious. XD
The basic costume was sewn by my tailor, but I added the ribbon and painted on the details. I also sewed the arm warmers. My naginata is made of cardboard, PVC pipe, compressed foam board, balsa wood and styrofoam balls. The bells are real and they jingle when I move. Armor and accessories are made of craft foam, PVC, rope and styrofoam balls.
Good job there^^
haha live! *concert*
