All weapons are made out entirely of fiberglass and lights will be incorporated. The protruding parts of the costume is made out of foam and fiberfill. We are using face paint, brightly colored contact lenses and make-up to imitate facial features of the characters. :]
Brief Description of the Skit:
A tank enters the area, wreaking havoc all about in search for fresh human blood. Cannon balls are fired. Walls (made of foam and styrofoam) are destroyed. Rubble scatters. Then, Masane comes in to save the day by stabbing the tank with her blade. She walks away. Victory! Or so she thought. Little did she know that Shiori snuck out of the tank to strike her from behind.
A fight scene (with stunts) takes place. The clashing of the blades can be heard. Shiori's weapon lights up, indicative of the energy building up, which would all be directed towards Masane's frame.
Masane falls, and as she hits the ground, a voice suddenly plays in her head. "Mama! Get up!", shouts the voice of a child. The child who she had come to call her own.
The voice gives her strength. There is an audible build-up of a massive amount of energy. Her blades light up. And then, she strikes back.
Victory! And this time it was for sure.

Thank you, guys, for looking! ^__^ You can check out more of our cosplay works here. I also hope to get-to-know fellow cosplayers from other countries~! <3
Gorgeous!!! Your Cosplays are great!! Greetings from Chile
Thank you very much!! ^__^
Thanks to you!! For your lovely work... <(@_@<)
Good lord.. I remember your Rikku cosplay.. Still love your Misa Amane cosplay. ^_^
Hahaha~ That's so ancient! Can you believe it, my sister was just 13 then? She looks older than me though! hahaha! D:
Thanks! :D I miss my Misa Cosplay~ :)
Don't tell Ashley, but I actually thought she was back then. :P What happened to your Shunya Rei Cosplay by the way? Ever considered doing Gantz' Reika cosplay?
Haha! *tells Ash* /gg
Oh, I still want to do Shunya Rei but never gotten around to doing so. I might have other plans before doing her though~ I'm trying to budget my allowance for cosplay. D: Gantz' Reika?
Then a Gantz suit would be a nice budget cut. These were what I could find. ^_^.. ooh and have fun in SG.
Reika!! :3c
Very nice. All your pictures are very lovely =D
Thank you!^__^ :3
Awesome Cosplay, you both look stunning ^^
Really like the oriental passion photos. :3
Thank you! :D The Oriental Passion was just a 2-man shoot (cosplayer/model and photographer), haha! Asian culture is pure love! ^_^
Asian culture is indeed interesting! ^^
All of those cosutumes are very impressive. I really like The Baroness, I-no, Shiori, Masane, Mello, Rikku, Lilli and Morrigan costumes.
Thank you!!! :D Those are my fave costumes too! :3
I like that cosplay of yours...Your friend told me..KAWAII!!
Thanks!! But but... which one? XD
May i use some initials...M.A.S, thanks. ^|||^
Wow! I had no idea your cosplay profile was so extensive. Beautiful stuff, Alodia. Thanks for uploading.
This just proves that...we're getting old. Hahaha! Just kidding! Thank you for dropping by!^____^
What can I say, Alodia.. Fantastic Cosplaying!
Here's one from UAE.
Thank you very much! ^.^
Great compilation, good Luck!
Thank you~ It took a few hours to compile everything because I had to look for old CDs/DVDs that contained event photos from 2003-2008~ Whew!
Impressive cosplay. I was stunned
Thank you!! :D
Beautiful cosplays~ ^^
Where do you keep all of them OxO''
Thanks thanks!^_^
I usually have them in different cabinets here at home. But sometimes I sell some of my costumes because I need funds to make new ones. :)
Well, by now I'm very used to both of you doing cosplay but these from Withblade are great, specially Tsuduki Shiori by Ashley.
She looks absolutely gorgeous and of course, you too, Alodia ^^.
I am fond of Ashley's costume too! Her blade is light enough to swing around! <3
Thank you!^__^
Yep, that's what I call a huge blade but something usual with your cosplay.
But, you know, your Gothic Haruhi cosplay is perfect though I think that both of you look absolutely gorgeous in any of Shu Xian Online dress.
Greetings.
And BTW, congratulations and good luck in your travel to the "Inaugural Nuffnang Asia Pacific Blog Awards".
I'm usually not interested in cosplayers. However, this impressive profile changed my mind.
That's nice to hear! :D Thanks!
Supremely impressive cosplay portfolio, as EPIC as ALWAYS ^_^
Big support for your team, all the best ;-)
Thank you very much!^__^
Beautiful. (^_^) It's amazing how many there are, out of all of them "Asian Oriental Passion" is my favourite, though I will say you didn't make it easy to chose Alodia. lol
Greetings from Colorado. =]
Hahaha! Thank you!! :D Yeah, the Asian Oriental Passion is one of my simpler costumes but still the get-up did work~ Yay!
feast for the eyes! ^O^!!!
Hahaha! Thanks thanks! :D
Angel Sanctuary cosplay!! ♥ Wonderful wonderful Alexiel. *A*
Thank you! :D It took me around 3 days to finish the wings (3 wings). Another 2 2 days for Ashley's wings! I stuck each feather one by one. Me my friends (who were doing their wings too) got kinda high from the smell of super glue. Hahaha!
This post is full of win. just seeing those sisters especially alodia just gives me a feeling of being taken away! *sigh* They have my cheers!
^_^ Thank you~! :D
Absolutely gorgeous!
Thank you, Danny! ^_^
Alodia san's coming to AFA!?
Gonna prepare more memory cards for my digicam... XD
Heeheehee~ Let's just hope we get in~ :) Fellow Filipino cosplayer friends bram_bear have great entries too!^_^
OMG! The famous and beautiful Alodia has a gorgeous sister and she does cosplay as well! Life is good. My faves are the elven fairy and the oriental passion are my faves although bad girls Morrigan and the Baroness are a close second.
Yup, my sister started cosplaying the same time I did, which was back in 2003~ :D
Thank you! :D Haha, funny how bad girl roles fit me... but I don't think I am evil~ D:
Now that is some great stuff right there. Two beautiful women in some great outfits. Very nice.
Thank you! ^_^ And of course, thanks to those who help make our costumes.^_^ If it weren't for them, our cosplays wouldn't be as nice~ :D
It really wont be an exaggeration to say "Beauties at their Finest"!!!
=^.^=
Favourite one is the Misa Misa. The L guy looks pretty cool too!
Thank you very much! ^_^ I styled "L"'s hair/wig and help do his make-up~ ^_^
as always , what a great cosplay .
i think you are one of the best cosplayer i have seen. ^^
Thank you! ^.^
wow nice cosplay pictures XD
Thanks! ^__^ I'm thankful to be able to keep these photos~ I thought I lost them already. They're just burned onto old CDs/DVDs~ Haha!
i just spotted "im gonna scream" (really love that song) so i embraced myself and gave it a go (no offense, but my expectations were high) and boy was i surprised.
really good vocals, and while it doesn't have the feel of a rock band at all (no drums, electric guitars and all), the feel of the song itself especially the vocals are spot on. good job on that one ^^
*hides* hahaha! It was just an acoustic version because we prepared around a week just before the event! But thank you! I hope we did not let you down~ ^.^
hehe i see. Not only i wasn't let down, i was totally surprised by your good vocals, keep it up :)
Brilliant! We're proud to have you represent our country ;)
More power! More costumes and cosplay!
Thank you!^__^ I hope we'll be able to represent our country well~ (That is if we get in the finals!) Heehee! :D Good luck to everyone!^___^
Sexy ladies! <3
I sense a possible "trio" cosplay when I fly back to the PI. *is also planning WB cosplay*
Your props are my favorite aspect of your costumes.
OMG!! Trio WB cosplay?? Do want!! Can't wait to have you here! <3
Thanks, Jan!^__^ *wonders which WB character you'll be doing*
Nya!!! Finally can see the Legendary Alodia!!!
Please, Please, Please, Please, Please, kami-sama...let me take a pix with Alodia :D
*blush* Hope we can make it into the event~ :D
I remember having first seen your cosplay work when you and Ash got featured in Culture Crash. And the rest is history.
Haha, that was almost 6 years ago~ I still can't believe its been that long already. D:
I love your singing!!!~ XD Great Cosplay, Great cosplayer, Great Costume!!~

Just my thought though, stick to sexy characters~ It really fits you ;)
and definitely your Final Fantasy Yuna cosplay will be remembered.
Read it to when i got the Culture Crash issue back then... Where's the "Bucket" pic btw? xD
Thank you! :D
Haha, I hope I do those characters justice!
We have the bucket pic stored somewhere here...Found it --> http://www.flickr.com/photos/alodiaalmira/3982837333/in/set-72157622395410671/

oh! and those witchblade costumes look quite revealing... esepcially the butt area! be careful of predators... xD
Our WtichBlade costumes would be safe. :) I'm doing the version with the black cloth covering the revealing parts. And Ashley would have skin-toned cloth to keep everything in place. :D
Thank you! Hope to see you too at AFA! ^_^
NOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!
(((pak!))) *facepalm*
gooduck alodia sama! ganabatte! i really love the catears wig! (i know i already said this before but i cant help it) i also love the morrigan costume... can we see other pictures of you with the morrigan costume?
Thank you! :D It took a while to get it to stand up like that~ :D Morrigan? i don't have the final photos yet, all of those i posted were just outtakes. :c
how long did it take if i may ask? :3
aww... you look great with the morrigan costume by the way... im rooting for you and your lil sis in the upcoming cosplay contest! ganbatte! :D
Anyone can do the modelling, the difference between them is the anime and artistic spirit within
