Comments:
I have a weakness for cute animal
girls. Unagi caught my eye when I bought the popotan
series. I watched her at the end, and loved her
personality. She's so cute and she knows it! This
costume was rather simple, but caused such a headache
b/c of the actual design of the shirt. I didn't
know weither to make it a extra larger shirt or
to go with a different idea. Of course I went
with the more simple idea and used a pattern for
a regular sized shirt and altered it a bit. I
love how the tail sticks out and bounces around
when I walk. This costume is one of my favorites.
I even have fangs like unagi does! When she says
"una una" its awfully catchy! I found
myself saying it a lot when walking around the
convention halls. My metal ankle tag was made
by a friend of mine at a former place of work.
