meryl silverburgh
series: metal gear solid
debuted: otakon 2009
retired: n/a
cost: $80
status: completed

i had lots of fun putting this costume together! my boyfriend introduced me to metal gear solid a couple of months before hand, and i became an instant fan. i decided to flaunt my fandom. :D

mostly everything here was gotten at the thrift store. my hand guards and knee pads were bought at walmart, then painted with white paint and a clear finish. the arm and leg bands are cut up tights. the wig was custom dyed.

i realize my tattoo is wrong in the pictures, but i forgot about it until last minute when i was putting on the costume. i had my friend draw it with eyeliner. :p
