Horo Cosplay - Spice and Wolf - Photographs

Where: AyaCon, UK
When: August 2011


Horo (which some people pronounce Holo) is one of my favourite characters from the novel turned anime/manga Spice and Wolf (狼と香辛料). She's a boisterous old wolf goddess who hires the help of a merchant to get back to her homelands. I love her because she's such a strong female character with her soft spot and she talks like an old Japanese lady, hahaha!

I put my foot in it for this costume though because I put it up for the masquerade and cosplay competition! It was the first time I'd ever entered a costume into a competition and although I didn't win anything the judges said it was a well done and accurate costume.

You can see the construction images of this costume on Horo Cosplay Construction.

Photographs by Nert at ManyLemons, who is a UK convention cosplay photographer.

Masquerade Photographs
I entered the costume in the masquerade and was so scared, nervous, excited, it was awesome. My face on the pics was like "ooooh fuck" and the lighting was so bad it was difficult for people to get decent pics (except Nert cos he's awesome). And I can't thanks my friends enough for helping me work out what I was going to do on stage beforehand because I hadn't prepared at all! I ended up skipping and spinning on stage, and although people said I had the most energy the photographs came out a bit blurry.
