Myself as Seras Victoria from Hellsing. Photo taken by Lionel Lum at Ohayocon 2008. This is the "blood" version of Seras from the later Hellsing manga [it's hard to explain without spoiling major bits of the plot, but suffice to say she undergoes quite a wicked transformation XD]. Yes, I know that my version differs quite a bit from the "wine red" action figure that was released, but I quite liked the thought of being realistically blood-splattered, LOL. I could probably write a short novel on why I chose to do certain aspects of the costume the way I did, but suffice to say that I was trying to be more accurate to the manga's portrayal of her than anything else. ^__^ Lionel is an absolute artist at what he does, and this photoshoot is no exception. He somehow manages here to make me look terrifying in a beautiful way, which is really quite appropriate considering the event which brought about this transformation in Seras. [And yes, I do know the patch is on the wrong side! It has since been fixed. :3]

Please no critiques/criticism. I'd like to keep this gallery happy! <3

Love your version of the blood splattered Seras. Not too many people do that version of her. Kudos.

What make of blood did you use to do the effect? What company... or was it an original recipe?

Thank you! So glad you enjoyed it. I used several different types of blood for the costume. The costume was splattered with a mixture of fabric dye and acrylic paint, and I used two different types of Mehron theatrical blood for the makeup.

Fabric dye and Mehron. Good to know. Thanks.

I have been using a huge bottle of Ben Nye Blood for a couple years now. I am fairly happy with it, but I always like to know what other brands are doing. Wheeeee.

I also have the feeling that her yellow uniform is dyeing with blood, so it's blood red. I love both interpretation, wine red or blood splatter. It makes a bit differences, but I like it anyway.
You did a great bloody Seras. I really love this version of her, rather than the yellow police uniform. ^^
