"It shoots 50mm steel buzz saw blades, 0.8mm thick, made by PROXXON Germany. A electric motor makes it rotate, before its accelerated on its lil slide, towards the open end of the crossbow. Runs on 4 Li Ion cells 18650...green 30mW DPSS laser for aiming."
Umbrellas for the Civil but Discontent Man combines a symbol of gentlemanly refinement—the full-sized, dark umbrella—with an element of more manly sword-bearing times. The umbrellas offer brief psychological respite from the dictates of social amiability; aggressive fantasies are allowed and encouraged on the daily commute to the office. The effete civilian’s grasp of the handle takes him into the world of the masterful samurai, the medieval barbarian, or the triumphant cavalryman.
"While updating my website this evening I realized I never posted photos from my revamped Mario shoot!
I originally made this costume in 2009, and decided to modify it for my appearance in the 2012 Cosplay for a Cause calendar. It didn’t take long to fix up - I took it in quite a bit (I’d lost 30 pounds since I last wore it), made it a tad shorter, added some lace, found a much higher quality hat, and swapped out the boring flats for some knee socks and heels!"
"I constructed the 3 piece suit and grey dress shirt and based the cut as closely on the character sheets as I could. The challenge was to tailor a suit that was styled like a men’s suit, but have it fitted to a female figure. In the end, I feel I was partially successful with this. The vest is very well fitted, but the jacket came out a bit loose. However, it is easy to wear and great for a cold weather convention. I put emphasis on creating the 90′s power suit silhouette with big shoulder pads, large lapel and tapered slacks. The suit also buttons on the men’s side, as Saber’s does. The shoes are brown, like hers, though don’t ask me why she’d have chosen to wear brown with black… I made the bracelets as well, but my jacket sleeves hang a bit long to show them. The wig was a regular unstyled wig that I cut, added an ahoge to it, and pulled back into a low ponytail."
