Dressed to Kill

"How glorious it is... this battlefield of mine!"
- Solf J. Kimblee, chapter 65 of the Fullmetal Alchemist manga

I debuted this costume in May 2010; however, despite what some people said, I really didn't feel that my Kimblee cosplay was that good. For reference, here's a pic of me from last year ([link]). I uploaded that pic to dA, by the way, but I've already deleted it, as I have better pics now.

Despite still feeling unconfident about my Kimblee cosplay, I decided to give cosplaying him another try, at my friends' and darling's encouragement. This time, I can say that I have better-quality pics, although I'm not sure if my cosplay has improved. At least, I suppose I learned to contour my face better, and the tattoos look better. Ah, and by the way, I decided to try using my real hair for Kimblee this time, because my hair's almost about the same length as his, and the wig I previously used for him was recently styled, and is now curly for another cosplay.

Anyway, I don't think I'll be cosplaying Kimblee that often. Heck, I kinda doubt I'll cosplay him again after this. Who knows? We'll see...
