Sniper from Ragnarok Online

Made In. July 2006
Debuted. San Diego Comic Con 2006
Info. I'm not a commissioner and don't usually take commissions, but my mom introduced me to one of her coworkers whose son LOVES LOVE LOVES anime and video games. He told me that he showed his son my website and his son flipped over my costumes, and wanted one for his own. At first I was like "HELL NO I DON'T HAVE TIME KTHNX", but then I met his son--Kit--and I couldn't help but agree to make a costume for him. He was literally the sweetest and most adorable 16-year-old otaku I had ever met!

We set to work on this costume, and Kit was there every single step of the way. I sat at his house and sewed while together we watched Ranma 1/2. Despite it being extremely hot and the house lacked air conditioning, it was a lot of fun hanging out with him and we became fast friends. He loved the costume and reprised it the next year at Anime Expo, where he was immediately stolen away by the Ragnarok Online gathering who was desperately looking for a Sniper to add to their photos! SOOOO much fun, and it was really worth it! Doesn't he look so cute in it? X3
