"Only under light does a flower bloom with beauty..."

[The Slate Scholar]

"Now the time has come...for the finale."

So, I've decided to enter the arena again.

After playing around with tektek for a while, an idea struck me about Endrance's skirt problem. Those who has attempted to make an Endrance tektek have probably realized that the Red Leather Skirt looked amazingly accurate under the Elegant Veil, but were angered when Gaia's layering wanted one or the other. We were forced to then equip the hideous Red Leather Belt instead and "be satisfied" with it. Shopping around yesterday, I found some really short red shorts that would look well with the cosplay and didn't removed the skirt, but sadly they removed the Stealth Ultraviolet Leggings, leaving me at another stop sign. However, playing around with tektek I remembered that girls have a lot of stockings and wondered if the shorts and the stockings would go together. I found the G-LOL Bruise stockings [which went almost all the way up while still remaining the same color as the boots], and then put the Blade's Leggings beneath them, which makes it look extremely convincing.

So, now that I think I have made the most accurate Endrance I ever have so far, I decided once again to enter the Avatar Arena and see if I can join Kite, BlackRose, and the two Balmungs [one of which was mine] i nthe ranking. I was hoping you all could help me get there again, because I truly believed you all were the only reason why I placed as high as I did. I hope you'll support me once more, and I'll post a link to the entry once I have one, or you can simply search "Endrance" in the keyword block.

Voting has now started.

Wow, that looks....really good. I mean, I don't think I've seen such a good .hack arena entry in a long, long time. That's a ten, no question.  

[Sanus Ex Machina]

Wow! That looks great!

Thanks for the 14g. In return I gave you a 9.999999 rounded up.

I voted on it and commented! but I'm biased and even though you got the shorts/skirt down, I dun like that Hair style for Endrance....plus my boyfriend is Endranse (teh user with the S in the name) sweatdrop sorry  

[The Azure Anomaly]

That's quite alright. However, I must point out that I positively loathe Endranse's choice of hairstyle as well. It's too light and not long enough to provide a satisfactory response. I also have a problem with his eye choice, considering it takes that seriousness out of his face and makes it unneccessarily feminine. Plus, the Genie Top is a bit too ornate considering Endrance's top mainly has more vertical lines than horizontal.

Sorry, I love critiquing cosplays and could even point out several flaws in my own.

 

[Sylabus]

Yeah, but I take the bangs over the length any day (bangs are sexxy old sephiroth vs new ver confirms that for me) plus, he made his avi before the new eyes came out. It took him forever to decide if he wanted to use a plumeria headpiece or pointsettia for the flower (in the end he used both lol), so you know how long it's going to take for him to decide if he want's to change his eyes? XD forEVA is what! lol Butbut in all the pics I've seen of En-sama (both in this case lol) it looks like he has mam-boobs because he slouches and his top is fitted around his chest like a bra and the vertical lines are lower.....but I shouldn't say anything, considering I shouldn't be wearing goggles, holding a flower or a book and my neckerchief stand out lika sore thumb lol blaugh

I actually made a tektek version of Silabus once that I thought better portrayed his jacket, but I believe some impossible layering was used. I'll try to make it again later, maybe, but I must admit I did like your version better with the yellow cat's tail, though it WAS yellow. I seemed a bit more accurate and was actually a very clever idea. I can't see the cat tail you are wearing as anything but a tail, but the yellow tail was semi-believable.

 

[Sylabus]

I changed it because first the color annoyed me and second I personally like the more natural pony-tail feeling to this one (like in my and most other fanart). Though the old cat-tail is more accurate to the official art from the game. But that's Gaia for you. The artists are fickle mistrisses. what may match colorwise, doesn't go art wise and what goes art wise is usually the completely wrong color mrgreen none the less, I must say that Endrance is one of the most expensive .hack cosplays to do (if you go all out with a kiki or fox mink lol)  

[The Slate Scholar]

Here: It's what I came up with, but I'm not sure if it's possible.
I believe so...but anyway. I may actually make a Silabus and rival you and Endranse.
[BTW: In the picture the manties can't be seen, but layer over most pants.]
