I decided to jump on the SNK hype last year because I really love Armin as a character and my best friends were doing Eren and Mikasa. I bought the costume in pieces because I already had some things and then bought the wig. This was super fun to experiment with makeup, Armin isn't especially masculine but everyone in the series has a desolate look to them, along with those ridiculous eyebrows! Honestly though this was one of the most uncomfortable costumes thanks to the belting slipping off everywhere. At the end of the con I took off my belting anyway (because of a dance gathering) I highly doubt I will ever wear the whole uniform to a con but I would like a nice photoshoot before retiring the uniform.
