moonwiseBecause I am a nerd and an otaku, I went poking around on the web for Trigun cosplays. After finding this link, I have a new appreciation for the master cosplayers:
Vash Cosplay
Why? Because these ladies built the costume from the bottom up. They have the skill and the expertise to make a pattern from scratch, and to recognize what kind of a technique is required to create a certain effect. I'm nothing short of awed. I mean... I busted my ass to make that Amalthea dress, but it's decidedly amateur next to something like this.
And - considering how much effort it took me to make that Amalthea dress, I can't even imagine how much time it took to conceptualize, design, and sew something as accurate as this version of Vash's coat.
Geez. When I see something like this, I'm alternately amazed that there are people this talented, and jealous that I'm not one of them! ^_^

>The duster is a straight-front coat that closes with a zipper that starts at the waist and ends at the black inner collar. Over this, the bib is attached by snaps. The decorative belt and side straps attach at the >waistline buttons.
This is the way the majority of the Vash coats we saw seemed to have been made too.
