How do you like my costume, luv?

Hi everyone!

Here's my entry for the Let's Go Cosplay Contest (and my first MOC on Eurobricks):

Theme: The Powerpuff Grils

Character: Bubbles

Cost: around EUR 5 for modelling clay (I needed three blocks – white, red and yellow). Paint doesn't count as I got it once for birthday;)

Hector (42) and June (29) have been married for a year now. They share a passion for old comics and cartoons but it's only recently that they've decided to go to a comic cosplay event.

Hector is a really tough guy (or so he seems at first glance) – burly, hairy and tattooed (by the way, that's why June fell for him – she thought he was so unlike the sissy guys around her) so it's obvious to June that the character he's going to impersonate has to match his super-virile looks. She's just decided who they were going to dress up as and she can't wait to break the news to her husband...

But Hector's plans for the upcoming event are quite different...

Hope you'll enjoy it. June certainly won't

Haha! This is such a funny entry Sorrow! 'Bubbles' is so cute... until the mask is taken off! Good job on the huge mascot-size head. Best of luck in the contest!

Really funny entry, Sorrow!

Glad we could inspire you to make your first MOC for Eurobricks

P.S.: You used 6 pics instead of the 5 allowed by the contest's rules. Can you please change the first one into a link? Thank you

Great job! I used to watch this show way back when

[Sorrow]

I'm glad you like it

Now that I had my first shot with customisation, I'll try to be more active in this forum... for which some of my purist friends will probably bite my head off;D

very nice, I love the small room. And your custom fig looks pretty good.

[SilentMode]

My goodness... Excellent work on the head, as well as the rest of the minifigure. Did you use Fimo?

Good luck in the voting!

[Sorrow]

Did you use Fimo?

Yes, it's boiled Fimo. I wasted one helmet and two torsos before I found out how to cook it properly;)
