Description The Photographer Nergene wanted to test out some tricks using different camera settings and flashes, it sounded like his goal was to turn it into a more nighttime looking shot. This was taken around 2pm so it was bright and sunny out. I think it created some really neat effects.

Cosplay: Kuja - Final Fantasy IX/Dissidia
Photographer: Nergene A. of Super No. 1 [link]
Event: Otaku Rehab [link]
Cosplayer: Me.

That is the manliest looking Kuja I have ever seen. Usually it's the other way around with a character looking too feminine because the cosplayer is a girl, so it's interesting to see the opposite. Hahaha, Kuja with abs!

hehe, I guess i started working on this around when Dissidia was coming out and i noticed he had abs

I just looked up some screencaps of Dissidia, and you're right! He DOES have abs! I'm shocked because I remember what he looked like in FF9. He had birth-giving lady hips, I swear.

I always thought that Kuja was a girl because of all the female cosplayers (I haven't played the game he's in) and when I saw the first male cosplayer Kuja, I freaked out. When I looked Kuja up and saw that it is, in fact, a man, I nearly died laughing. .... I've gotten off topic... Well, the purpose of that was, I was trying to say that you look great! Only a real man would run around it that skimpy little outfit, and paint his nails to go with it. Sexy abs, BTW.

lol, thanks. I thought Kuja was a girl the first time i saw him too. I guess he's been manned up a little in Dissidia but, final fantasy IX, he just screams out girl.

I know, right?! Anyway, hopefully there will be more male Kuja cosplayers, just as sexy as you!

I wasn't sure how it was going to look or what the photographer was planning but i'm happy with how it looks. He took pictures of an Azuma (Naruto) cosplayer using the same effects too.

spikensalem [2010-02-22 00:32:14 +0000 UTC]

You tend to do this thing in this costume....where you only use two fingers and the other two are tucked away...which probably is meant to look dainty or is easier to do? I don't know, but it makes you look like you're missing two fingers because of the glove design xD

lol, i guess its better then what i was accidentally doing before... which was flipping off the camera, lol.

Its actually similar to one of the other photo's, its just their happened to have been 2 photographers their and one was doing lighting manipulations with the shot.
