I made the swimsuit pattern using a swimming suit I already owned and altering the pattern to look exactly like the art I based it off of. It has a bra in the top to get Ryoko's nice curvy form. The big thing to tackle was the hair. I used 2 Jareth wigs in Powder Blue from Arda Wigs. They were sewn together for volume. I then spiked them and used Tacky Glue on the tips to make the spikes stay nicely. In the end it helped with keeping them nice even when hit by pool water.

Ryoko has always been a favorite of mine. We're a lot alike. Kinda loud. Like to drink. Very straight forward. And not afraid to be naked in front of people (aka nothing to hid). I'd love to make more versions of her because she's may favorite anime girl.
