We only cosplayed one out of three days of this convention, so we went with some fairly easy to assemble designs. I went as Pumpkin (Kabochan) the Autumn pin-up girl I did for a charity auction, and Lindsey went as a gothy Asian angel, which I nick-named Jasmine.
The wigs were the single most time-consuming aspect for both characters. Jasmine's involved some rather complicated braidwork, and Pumpkin had gold and dark orange streaks added to the base orange wig.
The only day it was bright enough to take good pictures, it was also very windy! (I was moping 'coz my hair was messy.)
