Aphelandra the Amazon

Me sunday cosplay at genki 2012 in Roskilde. Started out as a surprise-amazon-invasion idea with a few girl friends who dared each other into the costumes ;3 I really liked all the female power and must say the amazon warrior myth has always intrugued me. Aphelandra was a character in all aspects a different and new challenge to me. Although planned for a long time I had to little time to finnish all in time, henche the fail sword. Next time...

Costume crafted and worn by me.
