Silent Hill Nurse Cosplay

Yep. What it is says up there.
My Silent Hill nurse cosplay is coming along quite nicely. Shoes are done, mask is done, tights, gloves. Mummy got me a work friend's spare uniform today so Ima work on that tonight and tomorrow. I just have to alter it to make it tight fitting then attack it with grimy paint and fake blood. Not to mention fire. Pretty fire. Possibly some tea. Then I'll just have to make a nurse hat and a weapon. Here's the mask, the fumes in it can't be healthy and my depth perception is non-existent but I'm quite pleased with it:


Here's what I have to work with tonight *evil grin* :
 

So pretty:


More pictures when I'm done!

The Fox and The Cat

I've been pretty goth damned depressed this past week, hence I've been reading my Grimm's Fairy Tales. That usually helps me a bit. The story of The Fox and The Cat seemed pretty relevant to me so I thought I'd put it here.

'It happened one day that the cat met Mr. Fox in the wood. She thought, "He is shrewd and experienced and knows the ways of the world, I may as well make up to him."
 "Good-day, dear Mr. Fox," said she, "how do you do? How fares it with you in this troublesome life?"
 The fox stared haughtily at the cat from head to foot for a long time without answering. Then at last he said, "You miserable whisker-barber; you tortoise-shell fool; you half-starved mouse-catcher, what do you mean by asking me how I am? Do you know your manners? How many accomplishments have you, may I ask?"
 "I have only one," replied the cat modestly.
 "And what may that be?" asked the fox contemptuously,
 "When the dogs chase me I can take refuge up a tree."
 "Is that all?" asked the fox. "I am master of a hundred attainments, and have besides a sackful of tricks. Come with me, if you don't believe it, and I will show you my method of escaping from the dogs."
 Just at that moment a huntsman with four dogs came along. The cat sprang trembling up a tree and sat on the very top, hidden by foliage.
 "Undo your sack, Mr. Fox, undo your sack!" cried the cat, "and let out your tricks;" but the dogs had already caught him and held him fast.
 "Ah, Mr. Fox," shouted the cat again, "with your hundred attainments you are left in the lurch. If you could have climbed up here like me your life would have been spared." '


Being a 'cat' with little to boast of, I'm constantly getting put down, criticised and broken by 'foxes'. They're better than me in every single way but one day I'll get to overcome them. My pathetic excuse of a talent will save me and I'll leave those foxes behind.
