Yes that is a lucky Sanji cosplayer, especially since he gets to take the costume's off later. WINK WINK. Well not the Vivi, she is a little young and I am a little taken.
Seta Ginny's Cosplay

Lovely pics, it's always a pleasure to see your cosplays.
Who's the daft fool that'd say something rude about you!? -
Wow, that was wonderful!
You two look great togeather, and damn you have nice bodies. Its a pitty you don't cosplay in bathing suits more than you do!
Haha, gotta kick out of Humonculus Monty Sanji. XD
-
Conekiller - Thank you very much! Unfortunately…some of the people in this forum have a talent for being rude and uncalled for over the most ridiculous of things. I'm really glad though that I haven't seen that in my thread here so far! BTW, that avatar is awesome!
Buuhan - Ha, thank you muchly. We had done a pool shoot a few years ago that was supposed to be Sanji and Nami in there movie 2 bathing suits, though they really weren't accurate. I may post pics from that eventually, although Monty's Sanji wig has improved a lot since then. And yes, the homunculus symbol was pretty funny! It never came off that entire con!
-
Thats always the case isn't it, when you want it to stay on it doesn't. And when you don't want it too…
Did he use some sort of red perm marker or the like? I suppose thats the only choice cause everything else will fade or wrip right off. And making a custom sticker wouldn't really work cause if the hand rubs against anything the sticker would get slaughtered. Not to mention that could pose to be difficult.
-
Great pictures Seta Ginny, I don't know why you put the rude remark on your post, you look just like Nami too me, and that is a great thing.
-
You thought that we're going to complain about that?! Miss Ginny, you worry too much.
I love those photos just as much as any man who commented here, but I also must comment on the tattoo on your arm. I love it, very well done. It's a lot better than most of the arm tattoos I've seen on other Nami cosplayers. Is yours permanent?
That Vivi wig is awesome.
-
Buuhan - Ha, tell me about it! Actually, what we always use for the tatoos, and I highly recommend it, is Sharpie marker. It's really great, it doesn't rub off that easy, and it typically doesn't bleed onto clothes too bad. For this con, though, Monty grabbed different markers besides the sharpies…they might have even been Copixes or something. All I know is while they looked fine initially, they bled easily and left a shadow x_X I'll have to ask him which it was...but yeah. Sharpie is best.
the green samurai ranger - Aw, thank you so much! I really appreciate everyone's kind words. BTW...were you one of the AP people I met at Anime Next? I could be wrong...Just curious!
Pass the Rootbeer - Heh, I'm very glad that there hasn't been any BS on here so far...Just wanted to make that comment just in case. Thank you very much! As for the tatoo...well, as you probably heard in Buuhan's, it's definitely not permanent. The truth is, Monty has just gotten damn good at drawing it on after nearly three years XD Sharpie marker tends to look very authentic when drawn on with a steady hand. Unfortunately, at Otakon this year we didn't use those. And by Saturday, my tatoo was pretty faded looking in any of the One Piece photoshoot pictures out there. (Thank goodness for eyeliner to outline it in =P! We didn't have the marker on us to refresh it.)
One of the next costumes I want to do for Riza Hawkeye involves a tatoo from the manga version, chapter 57 up:

I will definitely need to get Monty or one of my other artsy friends to draw or paint that on if and when it happens. -
ginny, great tip for the tattoos!! i usually use watered down acrylic paint as "body paint" cos is elastic and it resists sweat very well… but since i'll be wearing a white jumper (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v126/ikenie/001.jpg) i'm scared that i'll put a stain on it… how's the bleeding over the skin? can it make a stain??
-
@Seta:
the green samurai ranger - Aw, thank you so much! I really appreciate everyone's kind words. BTW…were you one of the AP people I met at Anime Next? I could be wrong...Just curious!
No I live in Kansas City, sadly there is no anime con here. I want to go because for halloween, my brother and I dressed up as various anime characters. My brother was Bato from Ghost in the Shell and I was Van from Gun X Sword. So to make a story short, we liked dressing up.
-
Ginny, you look absolutely horrific in those pictures XD (not really -is just being jealous of how pretty you are.-)
Anyway I loved the pictures you posted in your LJ!
-
Jeez, I just can't get over how great you look in a swimsuit Seta.
-
Your cosplays are fabulous. I really liked the FMA sketch, the dancing was very well done.
I wish I could go to Otakon… I even have my Ace costume ready to go. But they're all so far away... Meh.
I can't wait to see your Water 7 / Enies Lobby Cosplay. That should really good.
You need to get a friend to do a Robin cosplay. Robin/Nami shots are rare. A good idea would be in Chapter 425, when Robin is being hugged by Nami.
-
Just wanted to say thank you for everyone's comments from ages ago. I've been both sick and busy in the last month and a half, so I haven't really had a chance to update this thread. I know I have a ton of other pictures I should have posted ages ago, but I'm really excited and anxious about this costume. Since my boots finally arrived today, I decided to take some pictures with the bits of the costume I have together so far. All and all, I am feeling all right about it. The boots look really good for it, and the bra makes me look like I have a chest. The jeans….Well I hand painted them myself. I originally tried to stick exactly to the pattern of the Nami jeans only to find my legs were not long enough =P So I had to make a good chunk of the pattern up. I also need to make sure the last remainders of chalk dust from when I initially drew it are off. AND MY POOR NAMI WIG. It desperately needs a bath and some TLC.
The Lion head is...coming along. Once we have something more to show we'll post. But for now....
The reference pic...yeah I know I don't compare.
Work in progress pictures….
Yowch…so much left to do x_x The Lion head is coming along, I'll post pictures as there is more to see. -
Yay! Seta is back and looking better then she did in the bikini shoot!!! I take it you painted the pants? And, (Sorry for the ignorance) that's a wig right? Once again… Saves pic This is a keeper. You're doing great. I wish you could come to Acen next year. God, Fanboys with cameras would be all over you.
-
Ah, sorry to hear about your sickness, anyways, awesome pics! So far its looking just perfik. Nice boob area, spiffing trousers, and I like the boots! I can't wait to see what the tiger head looks like.
-
So sorry to hear about your illness. I hope you are feeling better.
Wow. Just wow. I am highly impressed, Ginny. What you've done so far is excellent. Everything is just so incredibly spot-on perfect! I especially love the pattern on the pants. The fur and boots match too. And why are you so worried about your wig? It looks terrific. I can't see a single flaw.
I hope you are very proud with this. I'd say it's your best work yet. Hell, I'd say it's the best cosplay outfit I've ever seen. Congradulations. I can't wait to see it the whole thing.
Cute parakeet. :wub:
-
DFG - Yup yup, like I said in the original post I painted the pants. I actually drew it in chalk first…and I think I liked how the design initially looked in chalk better. It was difficult to trace it in paint. And yes...my poor Nami wig ;-; I need to do so much work on it.
Local-chan - Thanks...yeah the sickness was really a setback. Glad it's looking good so far.
PtRB - Thank you muchly!! Yes, this costume has been a lot of hard work so far, and there is still a lot of work to go. But it's a lot of fun seeing it start to come together and I appreciate everyone's kind words. As for the wig, it doesn't really show as much in pictures but the ends are frizzed from when I last had to hair spray it. Hopefully a washing and careful combing should do the trick, maybe even a bit of a trim which I've been meaning to do forever.
And that is my birdy Griffin XD! He is going to cosplay Hattori some day!
-
I hope you feel better, Seta. ;_;
And wow! Stunning, you're doing one of my favourite images of Nami! It would be nice if your friend who does Vivi could do the Vivi one, cause thats also a favourite of mine.
-
ha ha, what a surprise, Buu, Jango, and AWB are the first ones to comment on your sexy pictures. :P
Looks like your having a lot of fun. I'm glad for you. Sorry to hear you were sick. I missed you on the boards here. Hope to see you pop on once in a while.
Man, your gonna make that lion head?! That's so crazy. You go girl! I'm excited to see exactly how your going to do that.
-
@SetaGinny:
And that is my birdy Griffin XD! He is going to cosplay Hattori some day!
A parakeet with a drinking problem. I like it. XD That just sounds adorable. I want to see the little guy with a tie. Kawaii as hell.
Will you or Monty cosplay as Lucchi with Griffin?
@captain:ha ha, what a surprise, Buu, Jango, and AWB are the first ones to comment on your sexy pictures. :P
Captain Usopp: holding microphone "What's good?"
AWB: "Woman!"
Captain Usopp: "What's better than that?"
AWB: "Two woman!"
Captain Usopp: "What's even better than that?"
AWB: "Five woman!" -
here then!
(not impressed your quoting things I never said) -
This post is deleted!
-
I realized I never mentioned this. Manto - sharpie doesn't stain the skin! If you scrub it good, it comes off well. But it CAN bleed on to light colored shirts. Fortunately I wear a lot of black XD!
I'm feeling a lot better guys, thanks for all your well wishes. I was in a pretty icky spot a month back x_x Now I'm good, I'm just getting a cold, which better go the eff away before AUSA!
As for Monty doing Lucci, if he borrowed my friend's Lust wig, he could have the costume in two seconds XD! I'll have to take a picture some time. Any excuse to get my birdy into a cosplay pic XD! (And he's actually a cockatiel. A very, very insane cockatiel…I could go on about him for hours.)
The lion head is coming along well (so far) but for the moment I have something completely different to post. Our last minute Death Note costumes for Manga Next! I've been planning to cosplay Ryuk for about a year now, with Monty as Light, but there was really no way I could put that together for Manga Next. So we opted for L and Light instead. Unfortunately, Monty's wig SUCKED ASS. It did NOT look like the picture sample at all and we are going to get a better one for him for the next time. I am fairly happy with the L wig, I had to do a lot of styling to it in order to make it Lish. The only prob is the hairspray makes the wig look shiney in some pictures. People did think it was my real hair at times though...scary thought =P
I really like the idea of L and Light playing a duet on the piano while handcuffed. XD! Someday I'd like to take a better version of this pic. -
fear the eyes XD Although thats easily one of the better L's I ever seen
-
Holy crap….Monty as Raito is bloody scary! Really...just look at that face. o_o
-
wow, makes me want to check out the anime, to see what this is all about.
-
Needs more manfaye
-
Local-chan - I think this is a case where red eyes look appropriate. And thank you!
Buuhan - Yes, doesn't he though? He is REALLY good at looking evil! XD
captain usopp - The Death Note manga drew me in about a year ago, and it is seriously one of the few series to hold my attention in a long time. It is great to finally see it anime-ized so well! It is definitely worth checking out.
MRED - Everything needs more Man Faye. He is my personal hero. I did do Faye years ago, though (it is how Monty and I met in fact.) Here is a crappy pic:
That was one of the first things I made from scratch and if you look at it up close boy it really shows. If we remake our Bebop costumes for the Cowboy Bebop 10th anniversary, I definitely am going to go for a more sturdy fabric and line it. -
So, was Monty a Spike or was he someone else and you two just bumped into each other?
-
Monty was actually dressed as Vicious (who has always been my fav) and his brother Cory was dressed as Spike. I was in a school girl outfit at the time, but after I met them I changed into Faye. We had a good time running around Otakon 2002 together, and Monty and I clicked almost instaneously. Crazy how things happen sometimes…
-
lovey dovey eyes awwww,
this year I am going to go to an anime con for sure. maybe i'll meet someone special there too ^__^
-
In other words, the first usopp cosplayer you see. Correct?
XD
-
|:\ starting to get annoyed with the usopp comments
Just becasue I like Usopp, doesn't mean there aren't lots of other things I'm interested in as well.I could give a rats ass who's cosplaying Usopp. In fact, even if it's a good cosplay, Usopp cosplayers, tend to look less than atractive in that cosplay. It's sometimes unapealing.
please quit treating me like my only value, or purpose in life is to like Usopp. It's very unflattering. I'm sorry I couldn't come up with an original name when I joined.
-
hey hey, dont fight here, this isnt the thread for that.
anyway, i love your cosplays. i wish i had the time and resources (and friends willing to cosplay with me) to cosplay. im just putting my all into my croc costume for the israeli animecon in 5 months. anyway, dont forget to post some pics when your lion head is done.
ps: i like the quote in your new signature. if only i could remember the comidian who said it… was it eddy something? i seem to remember that he was a cross dresser...

o_o….jeez, talk about not being able to take a joke.
-
Nice L cosplay, but something about the pupils seem wrong.
Hey, that Faye Valentine costume isn't that bad. The only thing I see wrong is that the colors aren't the exact shade they are in the show, though still close. Don't be so hard on yourself, Ginny.

I don't think anyone believes that loving Usopp is your only value. Hell, I can't remember the last time you've even mentioned Usopp.
It's a harmless joke. Chill and have a cigar.
-
Man I'm gone for a few months and Seta Ginny releases a whole new set of great cosplay photos.
I so wish a cosplay would come to Missouri. Wait there is one in St Louis some time this coming year.
Oh and Captain Ussop, don't fret, I use to get the, "Hey power ranger freak!" comments all the time on old forums. It's just a user name, not your real name.
-
This is a really quick update..I will post more later, and I hope I can find some better pics…but yeah. Our skit took the Best Presentation Craftsman division award, and we WON AN AWARD FOR THE COSTUME!!!! I am so friggen hyped about this. We've won many awards for our presentations, but it was awesome to finally get one specifically for the costume.
Here is one picture off Fansview. I look ick =

whistles More fanservice!!!!!!!!!!!
I am highly impressed by the costume. Very chic. I can tell you put a lot of hard work and effort in this costume. The wig looks incredible too. The fur is the most noticable feature, of course. I like the head. I'm interested in seeing a better pic of the head.
Congratulations on the awards, Miss Ginny.
-
whistles even tho he can't IRL You did wonderful! The lion head came out…wow...I'm at a lose for words. Not only that but you yourself are breathtaking in the costume.
Much congratz for winning the rewards, you deserve them.
-
wow, you must be cold. brrr looks great. I can see you had fun. You need to show us a better shot of the lions head though. I want to see how that turned out. May I ask what your thoughts are on the waste cloth thingy?
-
All I can say, Seta, is you're the bravest woman I've ever known. Walking around in just a bra covering the top of you (and from the pictures it looks loose), if I was a woman I'd be scared to death someone would take advantage and pull it down on you.
But nothing does happen cause, let me tell you, you have the eyes of a person not to piss off. XD
-
(trust me buu, it's on good) ~_^
-
Alright, I never wore a bra so I'll take your word for it. XD
-
Alright, I never wore a bra so I'll take your word for it. XD
Who wants to take bets on this statement not being true?
Anyway, great costume Seta. Looks good, was the lion's head heavy at all or was it managable? I wouldn't like the thought of carrying it around all day.
-
Have you wore a bra, B-B?
-
That turned out looking awesome Ginny!! I really love the work on the pants, they're so cute! I wish I could be as brave as you to wear a cosplay like that ^^ Unfortunately I am not blessed with such a cute figure like yours XD Ah well, guess I'll stick to being femme Zoro XD
-
You shouldn't be so hard on yourself, Neko. Reed loves you, thats proof you're beautiful last time I checked.
-
Congrats on the award for the costume Ginny. Definitely deserved it. Massive props for your skit as well since it was NOT a song from Avenue Q. Seemed to be a theme for the weekend. I had intended to get some pictures afterwards, but one of the people in my group got really ill so I had to drive them back to the hotel room.
Better luck at Katsucon I guess. Attempting to join in a School Rumble group cosplay as well as one with my anime club (undecided).
