The Team Magma grunt is my friend Jess. She's awesome.

Picture is not taken by me, though I did make the suit. This is my Glaceon, my 3rd suit. I need to trim up the face, replace the gloves (I ran out of the correct fur) and sew up a hole in the the butt ( >.< ) but other than that, it's done. A ton of people seemed to like it, so I will probably wear it for a few more cons.

I even won 2nd place for the Novice Division of the ConnectiCon costume contest! =D I was so proud and happy.
