About Kamael in Lineage World :
Kamael were born in the Era of Myths. These mysterious creatures have preserved their own unique culture living within the confines of the Isle of Souls, a haven located to the west of the Dark Elf Village. They appeared on the continent under the guidance of the Gods. Unlike the other five races that were created by gods, it is speculated that they were created for the purpose of battling against some unknown creatures. They are born into their destined religion that serves an absolute ruler called the “Mother Nornil”. Under the Mother Nornil, they devote their faith in the Goddess of Past, who rules history, the Goddess of Present, who records everything happening at this moment, and the Goddess of Future, who forecasts what’s to come.

About Elf in Lineage World :
The race of Elves worships the goddess of water and loves nature and aquatic life. The Elves have slim and nimble bodies, long ears, and beautiful features. During the era of giants, among all creatures they held the most power. However, when the giants were destroyed, the power and influence of the Elves were also diminished.

Some Previous Cosplay of Orochi X
Lord Knight from Ragnarok Online ( Reference Picture )
Lord Knight – Ragnarok Online ( Made in 2006 )
This is the first armored costume we’ve made, we used silver and gold paper only for the main material, and it works, many people thinks that we’ve made this from metal or something :)
In Photo are Orochi X with one of our teammate, Shinji
Cain Nightlord from Trinity Blood ( Reference Picture )
Cain Nightlord – Trinity Blood ( Made in 2007 )
One of Orochi’s favorite costumes, the making of Cain Nightlord took around 6 months, the longest one…
Back Detail of Cain
Siegfried Schttauffen – Soul Calibur IV ( Reference Picture )
Siegfried Schttauffen – Soul Calibur IV ( Made in 2008 )
The hardest costume we ever made, the icy part somehow ever made us almost gave up and choose another character to be cosplayed as well, it’s very hard to mold fiber and liquid plastic ( since it was the first time we used these kind of material ) but in the last minutes we decided to keep going and tough the final result wasn’t so perfect and accurate but we really feels so happy that at least we can finished it
Some Previous Cosplay of Pinky Lu Xun
Dark Ashura from R.G.Veda ( Reference Picture )
Dark Ashura from R.G.Veda ( Made in 2008 )
Shura Sword Detail
The best part Pinky love the most of this costume’s props is the Shura Sword, the curved quite hard for her to mold, she took almost 2 weeks++ to make it done.
Ashura is a very special costume to Pinky cause she is a big fan of him/her ( Ashura is genderless ).
Animus Isis from Rising Force Online ( Reference Picture )
Animus Isis from Rising Force Online ( Made in during 2008-2009 )
Behind The Scene of Isis
The Making of this costume’s props took around 4 months to finished, the hardest part is the round curve, for curve only we took 2 months to made it done ( with our back almost broke doing that lol ). The heaviest costume we’ve ever made that almost collapsed Pinky when she wore it, anyway Pinky include this one as one of her favorite instead her beloved Ashura.

Hope we’re lucky enough to meet again with our Singaporean and Malaysian cosplayer friends this year and we also want to make new friends with Philippines and Thailand cosplayers (^_^)v
OMG u guys are so brain-blowingly-awesome!!!! ~D8 I do hope i could meet you guys at AFA!! And hope u could share some knowledge of armour-making n paintworks to this (s)lowlife(/s) fangurl~ <3<3<3
Hi ^__^
Sure, we want to meet you too and we can share all about cosplay together...
Nice to know you!
Yes yes most definitely!! *____* Totally looking forward to it!!
If you don't mind telling....can i know what do u use to shape the detailings on it ?? (Some type of clay or something?) And can i know what kinda gold paint that you use on your armour??!! Brand? Type? Coz i wanna redo my cosplay stuff properly...and i used acrilic gold before this and it's doesn't seem to 'bling' as well as your armour. I also tried the oil-type gold paint for fences before too but....idk it looks dull on paper(base). TT____TT
Usually we used Paper and Clay ( Brand : La Doll ) to mold and shaping, as for paint, we used some kind of 'Cat Kayu' that sold in Indonesia ( Brand : Kuda Terbang ). We also used Pilox Paint for finishing. Hope this information can help you :) ... Feel free to ask us again if you still have any questions ^__^
What kind of clay isit? (paper? wood? lightweight?) i don't think La Doll is sold in M'sia so i need to find a substitute.
So basically u're saying u paint it with gold 'cat kayu' paint first and then apply Pilox Paint on top of it for the finishing 'added bling'?
It's a lightweight paper :) ... maybe you can search for another brand that is sold in M'sia...
Yeah it was like that, paint it with 'cat kayu' first and then apply Pilox for finishing, hope this can bling enough for your armor :)
Ah yes...lightweight paper clay i can find...i think 'Alladin jumping Clay' is the brand available here.
I'll give the cat kayu n pilox a try. Is 'Pilox' a brand name? Or a type of paint?
Ah~ i did a survey of the hardware here...and all i can find is Nippon Paint's PYLOX spray paint. Is that what you're referring to? They're coloured spray paints though...not overcoat (glossy) paint.
Orochiiiiii .. Pinkyyyyyyyyyyy

hope there would be considerations :3c
WOW!! So good!! I love the Isis Cosplay!!!
At first glance i thought Orochi X was male (didnt read the text first) then when I saw the last pic i said "the cosplayer is really a guy" but when i read the text... it said female...
Thank You so much for appreciating our costume works ^_^
We are glad to hear that!
Oh… Orochi is really a girl lolz
Ohhh~~~ Sorry...
The Light Elves look so cool even if i dont know where that came from!!! The picture just looks perfect ^_^
No... >.< ... It's okay, many people mistakes Orochi as a guy anyway lolz
Our Light Elves from an Online Game called Lineage II :)
words can not describe how amazed i am by your costumes. that's a lot of dedication rite there.
and i love image ID#18837 - it looks like there's a little toddler trying to climb onto the costume ^o^
Thank You for your compliment, we really appreciated that ^_^
That toddler there was Orochi’s little niece, he likes watching us on cosplay costume
Dang the Isis is Full of win!
As for the other female, hoo boy, you looked like a real life bishy!
Nice cosplay to the both! You two had my cheers!
Thank You for such a kind comment ^__^
Cheers!
wow those are some awesome cosplaying. Very impressive, don't think I've ever seen this level of cosplay in the states.
Thank You ^__^
But we think that US also got wonderful cosplayers like Yaya Han, Adella, etc. They are very great!
There's this kinda level of cospalying in Indonesia??? How come I never see you guys?? Ah, right, you guys, err, girls live in Jakarta, while I lived in Surabaya.
Anyway, 4 thumbs up for your cosplay (My 2 thumbs, and Miku's 2 thumbs XD). And one more thing, even here in Japan, there's only a handful of people capable making that level of costumes, you're awesome m(_ _)m
Hello there :)
Nice to know you, actually we had some cosplayers friend and photographers at Surabaya also, but we never join any cosplay events there yet…
And thank you so much for your appreciation, we still need to learn more about costume making, especially learn from our previous mistakes to make a better costume in the future ^_^
I see, I guess I just don't know enough about the World of Cosplaying in Indonesia.
As for the tourney in Singapore, you keep this up, and the victory is already yours!
Win this, go to Japan, and show Japan what you got! I'm cheering for you XD
Thank You Fukuei San n(_ _)n
Finally the pro had shown up ^o^
It was my pleasure meeting you last year at Comic Fiesta, every people in the hall switch their attention to your team when you first enter the hall.
When Alvin show me your cosplays portfolio, I instantly admired your costumes & props building skills together with your brother, it totally left me in awe.
All the best to your team & see you again at AFA09 ;-)

It's a pleasure for us too, we had so much fun at CF with our Malaysian and Singaporean cosplayer friends last year

i've also been wondering who did that siegfried cosplay. turns out it was you guys too! >___< we've all been thinking how you made that crystal sword and it turns out our theories were all wrong. haha. great creativity and craftmanship there. that animus isis cosplay is wicked too. >___< you guys have so much skill~~ im so jealous. haha.

OMG... We feels so honored to have compliment from someone so great like you >.< ...
Really?? >.< ... Thank you... Glad to hear that...
We ourselves did the Siegfried cosplay together with Orochi's brother, we used liquid plastic and fiber glass for the sword ( almost drive us crazy to mold -___-; ... ), we failed several times for making that icy sword, it was so stressful and that is the final result we can made finally...
Animus Isis was made by us also, not as hard as Siegfried we can said but the round curve almost made our back broke for making it ^^;
Eeeeh >0< ... how come you jealous, you're kidding, we are who should be jealous of your great skill, so epic!
Hey :)
If we all make it, we can share all about costume making together ^^v
Good luck Pinky+Oro on final!!!!

Ah well, thanks again, but we cannot wear Siegfried for AFA, we only had 1 Soul Calibur costume in our team...
