This was by far the most difficult costume I've under-taken thus far.
Done as part of a full Slayers team:
- Lina Inverse = Xylan ( http://www.cosplay.com/member/57920/ )
- Gourry Gabriev = Brett (Who is not on cosplay.com and only did the costume for AX08)
- Zelgadis Greywords = ElfGrove ( http://www.cosplay.com/member/53937/ )
- Amelia Wil Tesla Seyruun = TunaFish ( http://www.cosplay.com/member/78685/ )
- Xellos = Jru ( http://www.cosplay.com/member/108707/ )
I majorly improved my binding from the previous attempt with my Fakir costume at AX07. The make-up was the most difficult, and took a several hours to apply. The wig-styling only took about 15-20 minutes.
I was "Weapons Master" for our group, and I'm very proud of the swords -- Lina's and Zel's (they've been mistaken for the real thing visitors to Lina's apartment since the con).

As of AX 2009, this costume is being retired.
I will be cleaning it up, taking measurements and selling the full set (including make-up and application instructions) either after SDCC 2009 or Dragon*Con 2009.
