Okay, so I had a poll a while back asking who I should cosplay next. The results were tied with Aoki Lapis and Meltdown!Rin, with Original Gumi and Yuzuki Yukari behind them.
So I shall now proceed to ignore these results (sort of) and tell you what I will cosplay and when to expect picture spam.

Honestly, I'd never been keen on cosplaying Aoki Lapis...for a few reasons. XD First, long hair wigs are a PAIN. Second, her cosplay is everywhere so I think EVERYONE will be cosplaying her at cons this year...there're always a lot of Vocaloids at the major one I go to, so I want to stand out more. ...And I really hate that diamond on her head. <.< Even if I did end up cosplaying her, I intended to leave that detail off and just have her cute little crown there...
I'd also love to cosplay Gumi because she looks like Ranka but with boobs so I can cosplay her and not look like a ho except wait, Gumi doesn't like wearing clothes. <.<; Iunno, maybe I'll do a cutesy version of her outfit one day. Like this: [link] So cute when she wears clothes~ <.<
Meltdown!Rin is a cosplay I've been contemplating for a while, just because Rin was my favourite cosplay before I outgrew it, and I could reuse that expensive as hell EL-tape I bought for her light-up sleeves <.<; But, I figure, since MD!Rin is like...20...I should wait until I'm in my 20s so I'll actually look like a grown woman and not a 16-year-old when I do this. lD Plenty of time for that later~


Thus, I'll be cosplaying Yuzuki Yukari this year~ I loved her design ever since I first saw it. It's what I'd been asking for: something cute, but not skimpy, and a girl with short hair who's not flat as a board! And she's a lavender bunny! You can't deny that.
Also mai bbf ~IrisBee will be cosplaying SeeU...so we'll match well. ;D _{Don't ask why purple matches with orange...}
Only thing is her cosplay is $140 + at least $20 shipping + at least $20 wig...bringing this to about $180...and that's being optimistic...and not including her giant speakers/belt. So I'm aiming for $200. And on that note, I want to start taking pictures of my cosplay...legitimate pictures. So as far as pictures go you get them as soon as I get my cosplay >o! Annnd this goes without saying, but money from my commissions ( [link] ) will go here. :3 I hate asking for money so I won't ask for donations, but I'll leave this here as a progress bar for my (and your I guess) reference. >3
