Although this P's off a lot of cosplayers that hate the crap that looks so fake. It's how it looks that matters, and also that it's light and not dangerous. One of the comments: "My first reaction to the picture was: What? Another Zelda cake?" HAH it does kind of look like a cake actually. XD

I don't know, I guess; I've only dressed up as a videogame character once and I made the costume overnight. But it was still fun. It's really hard to make certain parts of costumes. I'd prefer to make costumes myself, but sometimes outside help will really help yourself out. Ahem... http://catsonmars.com/otaku/index.php Go there, click cosplay on the side, and just look at those things. Just wow. Sometimes making your own costume... Eh... Yeeeah.
