Gotham City Masquerade - prelims + finals

Putting aside all the crap I've gone through the past few days.... The weekend has been AWESOME. Hooked by the experience of the Hellboy Character Design event... here we are kickin' ass at the Gotham City Masquerade, Cineleisure, 26th and 27th June.

Had to spend RM20 at Cineleisure each to be eligible to enter... we decided to spend it on lunch at Scarlet. They got really good fettucinni carbonara.... Mmmm..... XD

Very simple (but pretty) tatt for the preliminary round

Ernie as Deathwish...

You don't like him when he's angry....
Basically he's a fast-talking psychotic character that believes in giving people "near-death experiences"... a slow, slow bloody torture and death by barbed wire.... (I made that barbed wire. lol)

Kim as Belladonna. Not so cute anymore huh.
My character is a mentally ill woman after being assaulted by an ex-boss, and escaping hitmen employed to 'finish her off'. In revenge she holds grudges against all business tycoons, working at firms under different identities (the shy, nervous office-gal), before kidnapping, torturing and killing them in the same way she experienced.

And do forgive the fact that I'm wearing an ugly black tube under my costume =.= Had to test the waters first... unsure of "indecent exposure" laws around here....

Short spontaneous 'presentation' of Deathwish and Belladonna plotting a devious double-team

So are you going to work with me or not?

This was actually reaaaally embarssing. He wanted to kiss me to seal the "deal"... but not expecting it and the whole thing being entirely spontaneous... I ended up pushing him away. X.X Haiyooor....

And so we made it to the finals on the 27th!

And oh yea to clarify some things.... Ernie and I ARE NOT COMPETING AS A TEAM/COUPLE. We never do, unlike what most people think... Lol... :) Hehe... We are competing AGAINST one another.

Ok I'm getting very lazy to upload so I'll just nip to the end....
Neither Deathwish not Belladonna won the big attractive prizes... but we bagged stuff like an mp3 player and thumbdrives among other goodies. And we had a smashing good time too, loving the limelight, and doing so many new things together as a couple. Goodness even the makeup artist said we were such a loving couple and thought we've been together for years!
