Sorry for the crap/blurry picture xDDD Basically it talks about Auckgeddon and stuff there, though cosplayers are mentioned fairly frequently throughout it xD |

| lol! I wondered if they'd ever use that ;) That's myself and Hayley from Auckland 2008 (Hayley was a member here and might be one again, she's with the 501st and Rebel Legion).
And my wig of doom. That's 4 40" long wigs rewefted into one. No other way to get enough hair for the dreds... http://articles.glittersweet.com/howto/recreations/bigwig.htm
A requoted article
And I found one here: http://www.pressdisplay.com/pressdisplay/viewer.aspx New Zealand, The New Zealand Herald, August 31, B12-13
Ok, I now have my copy nice and safe, first newspaper brought home in a while and it happens to be this one ;) |

This was in the western suburbs version of The Aucklander on the Thursday before Armageddon :) The Central version was the same story but with only the larger photo. It's also online: http://www.theaucklander.co.nz/local/news/masking-the-pain/3926970/
So glad the main photo was of Samara :) So proud of her :) Oh that funny bundle of rubbery things in the top? Those are my Leia molds :) Yep, properly made.. not papier mache as I was asked several times... Girls can't use resin wot!?
Some of you may remember Charlotte from Christchurch Armageddon :) She was doing cosplayer interviews then :) |

@neimhaille- your Samara cosplay is one of the wall pictures on the Mass Effect 2 Facebook site! |
