CHARACTER || Eri-chan (Ellie James)

SERIES || Strangecandy: Okashina Okashi (webcomic)

TIME || 2 hours

COST || $20

DEBUT || Ohayocon 2005

WHY || I love the webcomic Okashina Okashi. Very funny. Eri-chan is a really cute character, a genki girl and anime fan studying abroad in Tokyo until she and her host sister get sucked into UberTokyo. I really enjoyed the Eri-chan costume I put together for ACEN 04, so thought Eri-chan would be a fun character to cosplay again. (One day, I will make a Miss Wingmay costume! XD)

HOW || I had most everything from my previous costume (orange wig; Nyarr plushie) and my closet (jean shorts; white thigh highs; black mary janes). I got a black headband from my friend Kelli and made the smily face shirt. Only, it's not able to change smilies. :p
