Macross Frontier – Sheryl Nome Cosplay COMPLETE!

So I finally got all the kinks out of the last post from this cosplay. Of my Checklist i went above and beyond to get this cosplay 100% done and work out the small details that bugged me the most. First gonna apologize about the quality of these pictures, someone again messed with my camera and the ISO and White Balance were totally off and since my dad is the one who took the pictures and he doesn’t pay attention to those the pics didn’t come out as great as i wanted them to :( But I’m far too lazy to put it on again before AX to re-take pictures. Not sure if i mentioned it, this cosplay was made with the love and dedication of the girls of Cosplay Cute! Mostly Fancy India, she’s so amazing! Thanks a bunch!

Also blocked out some pictures in the background since they are quite embarrassing and personal…

I added in some of the missing things such as the gold microphone/riding crop, black collar, white gloves, blue contacts, silver middle in the belt, silver emblem on the hat, buckles on the pants and the earrings.

Overall I’m really excited about this cosplay since I’m such a perfectionist and I feel i’ve come as close as i can possibly get it.

Here also is my completed riding crop, i bought a black riding crop, cut off the handle and added in this wood piece my dad helped me make for the microphone part. I’m also glad i was able to get this out really well, i love a good prop and this is a prop that i felt really brought out so much more in this overall cosplay.

Well now we have to do is wait till Anime Expo! I’ll be posting up later my cosplay schedule so if you want to try and spot me at AX you’ll know what I’ll be wearing what days and what times as well!

Also we might be planning a small get meet up on Day 0 at a restaurant but that’s still up in the air. if anything not like you can’t catch me at my PANEL Saturday July 4th at 9am!

    Oh, the cosplay looks excellent now that you’ve added all the finishing touches. The insignia on hat helps a lot!

    I’m on the other side of the country so I won’t be going to AX but have a good time :)

    what’s funny is the pin on the hat isn’t the correct one, the only one that matched the actual pin from the show were nazi ones and i wasn’t about to use that. I think mine is from paratroopers or something since it has what looks like to me to be parachute, either way it does help bring in the whole outfit

    In a sense, you’re the female version of the famous Melonpan. I really hope that you will never quit the otaku community like him.

    wow that’s quite the compliment, also i don’t think he quite the community but really just got rid of some older crap, like that rin figure was leaning on him for sure

    Looking Good DQ everything turned out great.

    And your right the pin you got for the hat are paratrooper wings. By the look I think US Navy, Army ones have the wings curling up to meet the ‘chute.

    That is awesome. All of a sudden I feel like cosplaying as Alto Ozma.
