Hi! I'm Yukiko Miaka, a cosplayer for more than a year now. I'm a big fan of the Final Fantasy series. I also love feline characters as I can always relate to their character/attitudes. I'm cosplaying as a Miqo'te, a cat like race in Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn. This character appealed to me not just because of its looks but it combines two things that I love, cats and Final Fantasy.

This is the cheapest costume I made for the year 2013 and it was done in just two days as I already have all the materials in my reach. Almost everything was made from scraps,the leathers used was ripped from an old couch, the wig and the shoes were from my previous costumes, I just modified them to fit in. I only spent 15S the stockings and brown acrylic paint. I wasn't broke that time but I practice being resourceful as much as possible to make this hobby less of a financial burden.

Two days later I invited my photographer for a photoshoot at a nature themed park five minutes away from our home. We were just a two man team (I and the photographer) and lacked preparation but the photos turned out to be my favorites among all my 2013 cosplays.
