Who is Toboe, you may ask?

Toboe is a favourite character of mine from the anime series, Wolf's Rain.

My local Anime convention is arriving this coming April/May. I hope to not only attend a convention for the first time but to cosplay as a character for the first time as well(human form Toboe, not wolf(I'm a furry, but not quite to that extent.))

I've chosen Toboe to cosplay for I feel I fit his personality and physical description as it stands better than any other character. Know, though that my transformation into this charming young chap will be no simple matter and will involve quite a few necessities. I've compiled an elaborate list of items I'll need:

Toboe Costume Checklist
-haircut
-maroon hair dye
-red button-up shirt with dual breast pockets
-forest green cargo pants
-lace-up black combat boots
-plain black belt
-golden yellow prescription contacts
-four round, silver bangles
**optional items
-brown fur material(for tail covering)
-wooden hinge snake toy(for tail support and dexterity)
-second, alterable black belt(to attach tail to)

The italicized items are ones I already own or have attained.

I had a successful shopping expedition today at the Bargain Center as I managed to get two possible shirts to use for the cosplay, a belt, and the boots as well as some clothes to give to my big brother for Christmas, all for the unbelievable price of $10.98! Talk about a bargain! Considering every last item there was used though, I shouldn't be overly shocked . . .

I have over seven months to prepare for this event, so I should have no trouble getting all I need in that time to be the best Toboe I can be. Even though this is my first true cosplay, I want to go all out with it. Everyone please wish me luck! I'll continue in the future to give updates on my accessory status.

Man, the only time you ever talk to me is to tell me you don't like it, not to do it, yada yada. :(

With enemies attacking you from all sides...... where do you turn for your friends?

I'm sorry. I didn't mean to come off that way. I just don't get on line all that often to talk. I typically don't talk that much unless messaged first. I'll try to tone down the offense.

Well, like on the phone too. I don't think you recognized my number, but you wouldn't even let me text you back to tell you, this is Jessi. :(
