So at AnimeExpo this year I cosplayed Mako from the Legend of Korra. I had a fun time all weekend firebending except for when there was a misfire right into my face. No damage apart from some singed eyebrow and hair.

I made a flash gun which I wired into the glove. The fuel source was merely pieces of flash paper. Add a spark and the pressure will take care of the rest.

I'm making another soon so maybe I'll add a tutorial if it's requested enough.

Nice! I am planning on a Mako costume, what did you use for the socks? I can't tell what material you used.

So my boyfriend wants to cosplay as Mako and you sir have made something ingenious and I was wondering if you would share your secrets with me as to how to live-firebend. :) All credit will go to you.

Great cosplay too!! I'm always fathomed by the stockings. :) Magnificent!

Nice! Might I ask, what did you use for the leggings? Or rather, where did you get them?

Oh That's awesome!...Well, not the misfire of course! But your cosplay is really good and if you do make a tutorial, I'll be sure to look it up! :D I always like seeing how Avatar cosplayers show their character's bending for pictures and vids and stuff. I actually don't have anything currently that I carry for my Toph cosplay :P but there's plenty of outdoor areas at cons which is good!
