Kid Icarus: Uprising was and still is my favorite 3ds game! When Dark Pit was first introduced, i fell in love with the idea of a “dark pit”. He’s super sarcastic and his personality is so relatable! This costume took me about 2 weeks to make right before Titan Con 2018 held at Cal State Fullerton in June. Not only did i have to make my entire costume but i also made my sister entire Pit cosplay! Thanks Epic Cosplay wigs for the fast shipping and great quality wig, i seriously can’t buy wigs like this from anyone else!
