Which
of your Silent Hill costumes is your personal
favorite?
I really can't pick one. I like them all
so much. Its a tie between Dahlia, Demon Nurse
and Robbie (Ginjika)... which is pretty much all
my costumes minus Siam (Which I love as well,
but is kinda a pain to wear so its not as easy
to favorite at the others)
Why did you decide to make the costumes?
I decided to make Dahlia because there was not
much love for the mother of the Silent Hill series
and because I like cosplaying crazy people and
I like doing make-up (for the old age).
I wanted to cosplay the Demon Nurse because they
are my absolute favorite monster and because of
the gore make-up. And I cosplayed Robbie because
a long time ago a friend said
I should make a cute outfit, and that was my alternative
to cute.
How
long did it take to finish it and how difficult
was it?
Dahlia took about two months, but that was only
because I was very particular of what fabrics
and textures to use. She wasn't very difficult
to put together. Demon Nurse took about threeweeks
actually, well the 2nd version did because I knew
exactly how I wanted to make it. It wasn't that
difficult as well.
Was
there any particular thing about the costume that
was a bigger challenge?
For my Demon Nurse it was getting all the little
touches. Long in the front, difference in trim/collar
color, 2 hours of make-up to make me look as dirty
on the skin as the in game nurses. Probably the
make-up is the biggest challenge... because it
takes patience. Dahlia's biggest challenge was
trim. I could either make my own trim, which would
take FOREVER or find trim similar. OMG THANK GOD
I FOUND SIMILAR!
Anything
else you think is needed to be said about the
costume?
Overall, I would say Silent Hill costumes are
my favorite costumes. I hope to make a ton more
before I become "too old" to cosplay. When I'm
50!
