Kigging Up

Man I need to take a color theory class! After a while all the colors start to blur together... @_@

So there's thing called "animegao" kigurumi, "animegao" made of the words anime and gao, meaning face, so it's literally an anime face. The whole thing is an extreme form of cosplay where you wear a skin colored body suit and a mask, commonly made from FRP, that looks just like an anime character. You can read more about it on the wikipedia page: [link]

The first time I saw animegao kigurumi, or kig for short, was two summers ago at an anime convention. Some people are freaked out by it while others are fascinated. I found it really cool and impressive as it requires a lot of skill in all sorts of arts to make one of those. So in lieu of making an entire mask and costume, none of which I know how to do, I decided to make a little comic as a tribute to this cool form of cosplay.
