Medusa cosplay version 1.0

Description

I am FINALLY getting around to posting my Medusa cosplay! This picture (well pictures) was taken on Halloween 2010.

I had started Soul Eater in Sept, and when I saw the episode where Medusa uses her snake to threaten Eruka, and the snake goes around her and into her tattoo, I just knew I had to cosplay Medusa and see if I could pull that off!

I'm really happy with how it turned out! She really is my pride and joy! I wanted to make it so that the snake (whom we've dubbed "Ana") came out of the tattoo on my left arm and floated around me to my right. I have the complete tattoo of Medusa's snake on my right arm, and half of the tattoo on my left.

This is the simplest version of the costume that I made. It took me a few hours a day for about 2 weeks. I made Ana using foam, chicken wire, plaster cloth, and floral and plant wires. I bought a hoodie and modified it. Since I ran out of time to have this finished for Halloween, I just used a pair of black pants that I had. I also made arrow shoes out of foam since Medusa walks around barefoot, and most places don't allow you to enter without shoes. I also have the "snake energy" that comes out of Medusa's mouth (hard to see in the left, top picture).

Hardest part: giving the illusion that Ana was floating. This is probably one of the best pictures I have illustrating due to the background. :)

Easiest part: uhm, that's a good question. I suppose for version 1, it was getting my own pants. XD

Favorite part: the reactions I get from people when they see Ana!
This has also become my favorite costume ever! I have made many additions and modifications to it (pics to be posted soon). :heart:
