 PHOTOSHOP: COSPLAY PHOTOS

    Adobe Photoshop, otherwise known as Photoshop, is an image editing software created by Adobe Systems devoted to photo/image editing and effect creation. I'm a cosplayer who sometimes does photoshoots to capture my favorite characters. I use photoshop to brighten the skin and tone my cosplay photos. Actually, this app is very helpful for me as a cosplayer. "Why?" It's because sometimes when you are on the day of shooting, your face is not in good condition so this app is indispensable for beautiful shooting results.

COSPLAY PHOTOS: UNEDITED VS EDITED

    These are before and after photo editing in photoshop. I usually brighten my skin tone and add color tones for my photoshoots. The part that I focus on is the makeup of the eyes and smoothing the skin of the face and body. The editing process using photoshop, I think is very necessary to support the theme of the photoshoot (adding effects; smoke, light, etc.), so that the concept of this photo can be conveyed well to the audience.

MY PERSONAL OPINION ON PHOTOSHOP

GUILTY CROWN

    The thing I love about watching Guilty Crown is the music and the graphics. Honestly, I'm interested in the OST of Guilty Crown because it still really sticks in my head till now. The other thing that impressed me about this series was the pretty weird episodes in the last few stories. It feels like the story is over in episode x, but somehow it still continues. So, I've been feeling a little empty in the last few episodes (I hope not to offend anyone with this opinion ;;; Because this is what I remember from the last time I watched the series).

YUZURIHA INORI

    Somehow I'm very interested in cosplaying Inori, perhaps after seeing the design of her dress, watch the anime and reading the desciption of her personality, I feel able to cosplaying as her. There are so many designs of her dress that I really like, the one that I realized to the real form is My Dearest CD Jacket Version. Fun fact, my favourite character from this series is Gai Tsutsugami. I don't know why, but most of my favorite characters (male characters) must have died in the series (Not forget to mention Saito Hajime, Namikaze Minato, Nanami Kento and such).

 KIM JI-SOO SCANDAL 

    Are you a k-drama lovers like me? if so, you must have known about the scandal that hit actor Kim Ji-Soo a while ago. I honestly didn't go too deep into an actor's profile, so when the news came to the surface, I just read it without going into the details of the story.

    This fear of other people's judgments came to me when I saw someone writing a Facebook status saying: "ah.. I already know he's behaving badly, just look at his face!". I honestly don't pay much attention to other people's physical forms, because we're born of different races and I appreciate that. I don't know if I should judge people by the shape of their faces? I didn't even know that people with A-faces used to be judged badly. How can you get someone's good/bad attitude out of the face? Can you tell me more deeply? maybe in terms of psychology or other sources of science? 

MY OWN STRUGGLE OF BEING JUDGED

WD : Desi Rahma

    At first I was so scared of other people's judgments about me, it seemed like this had happened in 2015-2016 where I lost confidence when making a bound with new friends and that's made me break social connections for some time to calm me down. I'm used to having a good relationship with everyone, if there's a misunderstanding then it's going to be resolved by meeting and talking about it until it's done. Those years were the most complicated things and from here I began to realize the meaning of my friend's words: "not everyone can like ourselves, so get used to the people who are opposite to the understanding / indeed they do not like you".

THE 'ME' NOW

WD : Niken Larasati

    You can be judged right away just by your physical condition and I think that's terrible for me. Of course I have also been judged that way, for example with a plain face turns out to have a very excited nature even too crowded (unlike my stature from the outside). Finally, I found my peace that I accepted all my flaws and advantages. I feel grateful to have been given many life experiences by God and I feel like I am becoming a stronger person facing this social life.

    I'm still very surprised by someone's writing on facebook (scandal Kim Ji-soo), because how do you know someone's bad nature just from his face? Are you a psychic? Please let me know the tips because I'm so curious.

COSPLAY CONTEST 

    This is one of the photoshoots I did in 2015, I got an invitation from TakaShinReisa to do a photoshoot together and make a video for the cosplay contest. I think TakaShinReisa was very intent at making good storylines, so we won the contest. You can see our video on the link below!

TOUKEN RANBU : KASHUU KIYOMITSU

    I remember in 2015, Touken Ranbu was booming among cosplayers & I was one of the million ppl who got into the Touran fandom. To be honest, the reason behind it was because Touran has a related story with the Shinshengumi, where I have a favorite character: Saito Hajime. As an audience of Hakuouki anime, Saito hajime has closeness to Okita Shouji and in this series of online games Touran, both swords belonging to Okita Souji appear, namely Yamatonokami Yasusada and Kashuu Kiyomitsu. That's the reason I'm cosplaying as Kashuu Kiyomitsu. Certainly in the deepest of my heart is very much looking forward to the appearance of the sword belonging to Saito Hajime.

HANDMADE : COSTUME & PROPS

    I love Kashuu Kiyomitsu's design character, although it is quite difficult to bring it in tropical areas such as Indonesia but it doesn't detract my desire to make it into real forms such as costumes and properties in cosplay. To be honest, my favorite color is blue but most of my cosplay has red elements especially in the eyes of the characters and costumes. It's a strange coincidence, but I think this is the kind of character I used to cosplay with.

GROUP PHOTOSHOOT 

    I'm so grateful to Ce Asuka for inviting me to do a group photoshoot. To be honest I'm not too used to group photoshoots, but this time it was quite different for me because its consist of four cosplayers and one photographer who helped us capture the moment of the day. My memory is quite vague, but in this session there were quite a lot of helpers from the photographer sides.
