I seem to have some federation issues, so here are two more photos I like from last week's LBM that I originally posted on Pixelfed. Full description: pixelfed.social/p/WildRikku/81

The first one is with my friend Sarah, who is partly responsible for me becoming a cosplayer. On the second, I met someone who shares my fascination for weird mechanics. :D I got to talk to a lot of people this time but it's always especially cool when someone asks about the gunblade.

On the left is a person in a steampunk-inspired outfit. They are wearing a blue and brown patterned jacket with a brown corset, brown pants, and brown boots with laces. They also have a brown hat with steampunk goggles and makeup on their face that makes it look like they have dirt or soot on their face. They are holding a walking stick with a coiled metal component at the top.
To the right is a person cosplaying as Lightning from Final Fantasy XIII. They have pink hair and are wearing a brown and white vest, brown shorts, and brown boots. They are holding a large silver sword.The image shows two people dressed in cosplay in front of a low wall.
The person on the left is wearing a white hooded cape with pink trim, a white lace dress, striped knee-high socks, and rainbow sequined sneakers. The hood of the cape has bunny ears.
To the right is a person cosplaying as Lightning from Final Fantasy XIII. He has pink hair and is wearing a brown and white vest, brown shorts, and brown boots. They are holding a large silver sword.
In the background, there are other people and architectural elements. An escalator is visible on the left. There is a person in a cow costume to the left.

Two more photos that I like from last week's LBM, where I cosplayed Lightning from Final Fantasy XIII.

Sarah on the first photo is partly responsible for me becoming a cosplayer instead of limiting myself to making props, which is where it started. Can't believe this was the first time I met her in an outfit - we've known each other for quite a few years now.

The lady on the second photo was very fascinated by the gunblade. :D I was recognized quite often this time and talked to quite a few people about Final Fantasy stuff, but I'm always especially happy when someone is interested in the gunblade and the transformation mechanism since that is what I spent the most time on. You can see both forms on these photos, even though it's not fully transformed to gun form on the first photo since one of the mechanisms currently needs maintenance.

I really had a great time at the LBM / MCC. When I started 1.5 years ago, I had the illusion of going to LBM 2024 in cosplay. It took another three months until I had a version that I could show. So it was cool to go there this year, now with an almost finished version. It's a huge event, but I like how well the book people and the anime / manga / cosplay people mix. Even among those not in cosplay (and there are MANY cosplayers!) there's a lot of people with wigs or ears or just cool outfits and it's just a very friendly atmosphere.

Here's another photo from yesterday's LBM visit, with Reno from FF VII. This one was taken in the glass hall, where a lot of cosplayers meet. It's a weird location. It has the best photo spots, but it's also much louder and much warmer than the other exhibition halls. You can tell how much sun gets in there by my glasses, which started to turn dark because of the UV light.

Here's one of my favorite photos of yesterday's visit to LBM / MCC. Since the auto focus failed, it's probably technically the worst, but I was really happy to find someone cosplaying a character from Metaphor: ReFantazio so here's Lightning and the protagonist, captured a little tired and shortly before the end of the day.

She said there were others, too, and apparently there was a little (impromptu?) meet-up with Hulkenberg, Junah, Strohl and her. I recently wondered why there seemed to be not many Metaphor cosplays so that was nice to hear and I'll watch out for them at future cons. I wonder if someone does Eupha.

Two cosplayers in front of a white temporary wall at a fair, one being Lightning from Final Fantasy XIII, one the protagonist from Metaphor: ReFantazio. Both are gender-bent cosplays.
