and me as China and Hong Kong from Axis Powers Hetalia at AnimeBoston I'm holding a HAND-CRAFTED ERHU created by the crazy talented ... oh my lord, it was THE COOLEST THING ever. *[]* We took quite a few pics, going to snag them from when I get the chance. I'm pretty much a casual cosplayer and I spent only like $15 on this costume, but that's okay because I had fun~
Anyway yeah, this was like the first cosplay that I did that people actually really recognized (getting spotted as Yamapi!Kurosagi by one tiny group of hardcore Johnny's fangirls last year doesn't count). I had a Makinami Mari Illustrious cosplay I did on Friday, but only 2-3 people knew who I was; I guess people don't really know much about the new Eva movies. I got mistaken for China a bit in the Hong Kong cosplay; if that ever happens again, ~jtlan's going to be like "In all the world, there is only one China!"
But yeah, ~jtlan was a great, fun China and got a lot of people hugging him and thanking him for being the only Asian male China cosplayer XD and it was fun watching him call out "Come back to me!" to all the Taiwans (Note: "Come back to me!" of course means that they're not currently the same entity yes/yes?). Also, we spotted this really awesome UK cosplayer and she cursed me gave me UK eyebrows hehehe! It was hard to stay in character, since all we know about Hong Kong is that he's kind of stoic, and how can you be stoic at a con?!
Pic snagged from ~chosetec's facebook. I have some more pics (and some without my eyebrows XD;;; ) on my facebook too, if you're IRL friends with me. Anyway, posting more pics of our mini-photoshoot later!
I wish I saw you! *O* I still can't believe I didn't see you the ENTIRE weekend. D: But if Ven and I had gone to the Artist's Alley, we were afraid of knocking people's booths down, lol.

I feel like I've forgotten something...
