I actually had 1 other concept, but I didn't think it was that striking... Ryuuzaki Umi from Magic Knight Rayearth

Otherwise I tried several different locations and shots as Souseiseki.

The sleeping shot is most iconic for the show though, so I kept with that... the trouble was finding a decent background!

So cute Terrini!

WARNING a LOT of Alt shots: (I had a little too much fun with this one...and couldnt seem to amke up my mind)

This particular shot was the next one down from the chosen shot:



(This guy appeard behing me when I turned around from my spot lol)

Alternate Cosplays"

I tried Willow....but it just wasn't right at all....I took one SS, and thought....yeah...this wont work ; ;


And my first choice was Roy Mustang from Full Metal Alchemist

lol I had to cut some alts out....too many

[Terrini]

Oh yeah, you mentioned you also leveled Weaver for the glamor xD I used the hat and you used the coat for Roy! Spiffy! And <3 Willow! Warwick Davis rocks! Mini you really killed the Fan-favorite. I don't think anyone can say you don't rock that cosplay, and most people know Radical Edward.

Poor Souseiseki is the neglected sister of Rozen Maiden... but she totally rocks and is my fave character in the show for sure!

Okay so... originally I was going to be a different character altogether! Here was those shots:

But I decided this was a much stronger concept for me! Here are my alternates:

Mostly these were too dark to use, and I was trying to match my reference closely

There are several others, but they are just slightly different then the one I ended up using. =)

I feel bad I don't know who Souseiseki is ._.

But so glad you know about Willow! One of the best. Movies. EVAH! I STOLE DA BABY!!!!

One of the biggest issues with my Roy cosplay was I had planned for use some fire spells or play with astral fire or something, but obviously couldn't wear my weaver outfit as a blm...so I was in a dilemma...and ultimately didn't like much of what I ended up with.

But I do want to give major props to my FC for getting a full 8 man group together to run me through Praetorium specifically for the purpose of looking for the right background for my screenshot. I feel bad having not used one, but I figured I'd leave some here at least, and give them shout outs because I really did appreciate it. They were all pretty darn awesome for doing that!

Oh Eldaena!! So gorgeous! There's something about that 2nd shot that is so captivating to me as well. Though all of them are very lovely!

Willow is literally my favorite movie of all time.

"It was just my disappearing pig trick."

Rozen Maiden is a show about sister dolls with a piece of a soul that must fight each other for all the soul pieces in order to become "Alice" or a 'real girl'.


Souseiseki and Suiseiseki are twin sisters whose soul fragments govern powers over the growth and pruning of plants. (Souseiseki uses a giant pair of scissors and her sister uses a watering can)

Before the fighting starts it's actually a very cute slice of life bit as the main character Jun, a Hikikomori, obtains the fifth doll Shinku and becomes her partner, a human that maintains her clockwork springs and provides the energy for her to live and fight with her soul.

So... I did have an alternate concept, but I'm almost too ashamed to post it, for fear of you guys seeing how stupid I was ; ;

So I originally wanted to "cop-out" the same way I did in Cycle 3 by doing something I didn't personally like, but knew everyone and their brother/sister would know and get! And after many failed and sad ideas, I thought of one I could probably pull off!.... Well this was from a show that, yet again, I have never, and do not watch! Nor have I read the novels...

I was going to do "Jon Snow" from GoT, cause everyone knows GoT! If not, they know the books!
..........
This picture right here is not "Jon Snow" from GoT, yet he is the same actor, and ofc since I have never once seen/read the media of GoT, I didn't know >< Thankfully some friends pointed it out to me BEFORE I tried submitting it ><

Apparently I was trying to do a character that Kit Harrington did do, but for a movie called "Pompeii" so.... here its:

I really loved the shot as a shot itself! But I actually deleted it from my PC and Imgur after I saw I made a grave error >.< I had to go skulking on my harddrive on my PS4 to find it again @.@

To be honest though, I'm glad I didn't "cop-out" this time and did someone and something I enjoyed, it made the shoot for me SOOOO much more fun, especially playing Silent Hill: Homecoming OST while I did it

[Dawnshade]

I t-t-totally wasn't to busy with Heavensward to post alt shots!

Ahem anyway c:
For the Limsa round, I also had an idea about doing something in the Armorer's guild. I tried a few shots to figure out angles and things but never actually got past that point with the concept.

As for the chocobo round another there's this I almost submitted but I would've prefered it with another background and IRL stuff kept me busy so I never got the time to re-take it

Nothing worthwhile to show for the cosplay one, sorry >.<

[Maleha]

I completely was busy to post alt shots or even watch ep 7 until an hour ago (yay model privilege of seeing it before everyone else)XD

Cosplay was a bit rollercoaster for me, because I did not read the rule proper and at first completely messed up. >.<
I made a great Y'shtola though! (decided to show off this one here cause I was randomly standing with my fc mate cosplaying Yda)

Then I googled "female video game characters" because my brain was blank. And I saw that ref picture of Faith and was like "THIS! I even have the pose for it!". Luckily just that week or so the cloud set was released to me so I had the perfect pants. ^^ I tried to get some in motion shots but none really fit well. so I stuck with my idea of copying the ref picture pose.
Here are the two pics Ade saw:

Unintentionally squinty eyed (I feel so racisiiist >.<), but I ended up liking the expression.

Much more saturaded colours due to the sun moving on. In the end I liked this more and just followed Ade's advice to switch to a background that gives off a better feeling of height.

I'm naming my little ducky, Pancake. He's adorable.

In other news, I've returned from my heart examination from the hospital! In case you're wondering, I'm doing fine. Though, I do have the sniffles. Nothing to write home about.
