Hyakurin - Blade of the Immortal

This was supposed to be my Masquerade costume for Anime North 2003, but it just didn't happen. I'd been planning to make the cool wrist-crossbow she has, and was in progress on making the special high-heeled geta, but I got very sick before the con and just didn't have time. That, in addition to the fact that I'd been unable to scrape together a group and had NO good ideas for a solo skit, made me decide to just relax and *watch* the masquerade for once.
The kimono is batiked by hand. I wore my Lipumira wig, which isn't exactly right but was okay. I realized when going thru my pics that I'd put my hair over the wrong eye and tied my obi on the wrong side...need to remember that the mirror is backwards.
This costume is retired.
