Description Oktavia von Seckendorff
Puella Magi Madoka Magica

I actually made this costume a year ago, but didn't get a chance to take photos until Fanime this year! Really happy with how it came out ^^

I always love seeing Sayaka/Oktavia hybrid cosplays.  I'm really impressed!

No problem.  It's a really detailed costume - I can't help but wonder how difficult it was to make that.

The most difficult part was figuring out the pattern for the tail/skirt. The rest wasn't too hard, just really time-consuming!

I see.  I'm glad you were able to make it work.  I hope you didn't have any mobility problems with the tail/skirt - such as you accidentally stepping or tripping on it or somebody else accidentally stepping on it.  

I also have a silly admission to make, being a big Marvel Comics fan, I've also recently started jokingly referring to Oktavia or Sayaka/Oktavia hybrid designs as "Iron Mermaid."  After "Age of Ultron" came out, I rewatched she used Oktavia against Homulilly in "Rebellion Story" and started describing Oktavia as "HomuBuster."

Surprisingly I didn't have problems with me or anyone else stepping on it. I do try not to go into crowded areas with large costumes though.

Haha, that's great!

That's good thinking, although I suppose it's not something you'll always be able to practice at every convention.  I'm glad you didn't have any problems, though!

Yeah - the HomuBuster joke actually got pretty wild when I started imagining Sayaka/Oktavia and Homulilly in the famous "Hulkbuster" scene from "Avengers: Age of Ultron."

Sayaka: All right, everybody, stand down!  You hear me?  That little critter is messing with your mind.  You're smarter than him.  You're stronger than him.  You're Akemi Homura!

Homulilly: *roars*

Sayaka: Yikes!  Okay, don't mention puny Homura.

or...

Homulilly: *smashes Oktavia's back*

Sayaka: Gah - in the back?!  Cheap move, Homura!

or...

Sayaka: *uses Oktavia to pin down Homulilly and repeatedly slap her in the face with her tail* Go to sleep, go to sleep, go to sleep...
