Alexiel the Magnificent by etaru Alexiel the Magnificent by etaru
I'm absolutely at a loss for words with this shot, Alain has really outdone himself with this!

Character: Alexiel from Angel Sanctuary
Model:me
Photography: *idolatrystudios
Taken at Sakura-con 2009 in Seattle, WA

Costume and wings made by me, harness revised by Lionel Lum. Tutorial for the wings may be found here: [link]

None of my images may be used as stock.

P.S. For those interested, I made the Seattle evening news on Q13Fox! :)

Absolutely amazeballs. Angel Sanctuary is only the 2nd
anime I've ever invested in and I've only seen one Alexiel
as good as this one and I think she was in Japan.

Fantastic! :clap:

I appreciate it, thank you! Definitely check out the manga, it's much more immersing and engaging than the short anime OVA.

You're welcome!
I actually own the entire manga series, OVA, and 2 artbooks.
I'm well versed in Kaori-sensei's masterpiece. It's an amazing
story and the only one I've ever dug into outside of InuYasha.
It's brilliant stuff!

I have a question, may I use this as a reference for a drawing, this is so awesome, from the background to the pose, from the hair to the dress and wings.

I really want to make your wings *eyes sparkle* Are they hard to move around in? I want to cosplay Dark Mousy so I might be running around a little...

They can be, especially in crowds and through doorways. I was just really lucky both times I wore the wings that I had friends who could act as "handlers" to help me through crowds.

I don't have images online of the harness, it's a design I don't recommend others to use because it was very labor intensive, and because I commission wings. If you'd like one you may send me a PM.

Oh my god, I remember looking at this picture some years ago and I was so stunned about your costume! Especially the wings that are so pretty! I was like: "One day I also want to make a beautiful costume like this awesome person~" And now when I've met you and experience your fantastic person it just makes me so happy~ <3
