Staryu from Pokemon / Cosplayer: @taracosm / Photo: @phen.stephen Everyone was amused and pretty much caught off guard when they saw my cosplay, a couple of people who were huge fans of Staryu freaked out when they saw me and stated Staryu is rarely represented. I was so happy to meet a little Ash cosplayer who was more than happy to take photos with me and meet other con-goers who requested the war-cry. It was just really fun hopping into the star stance and doing cartwheels..Like most people from my generation, I grew up watching Pokemon and was always amused with Staryu and Starmie’s cries, so about a year ago I was watching some Pokemon episodes that featured Staryu and it just popped in my head to cosplay a giant Staryu running around shouting its catchphrase “Heyah!” I felt it was time to do a completely ridiculous and silly cosplay, so I made Staryu a priority, plus Long Beach Comic Expo is right by the ocean and would make for some awesome shots..I found a star poncho tutorial online and modified it to fit my idea, then bought several yards of felt for the actual body of the star and added Velcro on the lower half so it would be easy to get in and out of. Then made the jewel part of the body with red satin fabric and lastly, added some painted detail for the shadows and shine. Accessorized with sunglasses and sneakers for some extra attitude!. -- source link
