I can't decide if this is a joke or not, because honestly I can't look at this picture without cracking up. The photo started out as just Yaten, and then horrible horrible things happened where I was farting around in photoshop and suddenly Healer's in the background being all "Eye of the Tiger" or "Final Countdown" (take your pick) and it's just so cheesy... so from there the natural course of action was, "What can I do to make this more cheesy? WHY HECK YES I'M GOING TO ADD SOME LENS FLARE"
...so... right. If I had just left this alone it might not have been so bad, as it is I know I'm going to get a good gigglesnort out of seeing this when I open my DA page.
Healer's costume is from Otakon last year, and I made Yaten's school uniform back in... '04 I think. I never got photos of either costume.
Healer is one of my favorite characters since she's such a snarky douchebag. Her fuku, however, is really not so flattering on people who are shaped like rectangles. Like me. Seriously, I'm rectangular, it's not cool.
I love your costumes, they are so well done and look great on you congratulations!
