I don't think I'll ever get into cosplay. If I had to cosplay, I'd be Julia from Cowboy Bebop. She's a cool char.

Come to think about it I made myself a hat like Link's (LoZ). It's not anime or manga though.

Cosplay...done it for AX03 and AX04...and I plan on continuing it for a while. It kind of makes up for all of the halloweens I didn&#39;t get to dress up and go trick or treating...:heh: For next year I was thinking of doing a character from War of Genesis, but we&#39;ll see about that...

Cosplayers scare me. Not only would I never cosplay, I would also avoid being around people who do so at the time they are actually doing it.

There are some really bad ones I think...just never really been around those people before...:heh: and I think that&#39;s a good thing. I think the scarier thing or people are the really big fanatics...heard some bad stories about that before...the ones that tend to eat, sleep and dream in their fantasy world I guess...<_<

I saw some really good ones at AX2004... and not to many bad ones which was nice

I don&#39;t think I&#39;d ever cosplay... there&#39;s not too many characters I could do. The only one that comes to mind is maybe Ashitaka from Mononoke

You should try&#33;&#33; Go for it~&#33; ^^- Start working on it now and by the time conventions come, see where you are...and if it&#39;s not close to being finished, keep going try the year after that. O_O

I think you could do a Yuna costume. :D

As for my Rosette costume..anyone know where to get cheap, blonde wigs? XD

America.. the land where there are enough geeks to hold conventions for cosplayers.. :drinking: :drunk: :eek:

Just about the only time you get to cosplay without looking really weird is in hallaween here.. so naturally stuff like hellsing.. last year I did the vallentine bros.

This year we&#39;ve already got a party organized XD I&#39;m planning on doing Shishio Makoto from Rurouni Kenshin :bandage:

I could only see myself ever dressing up like that for Halloween. Even then, I&#39;ve already got my costume for this year planned. I&#39;m doing the full Samus varia suit from Metroid Prime with fiberglass and rubber tubing. Hopefully I&#39;ll have it finished in time.

hey, i resent those comments about cosplayers being scary and geeks,(but that&#39;s ok, i respect your opinions^________^) it&#39;s actually really fun, and some of the costumes i&#39;ve seen are AMAZING. but, i won&#39;t bite your head off just coz we all have different opinions, as for me, i&#39;ve cosplayed as inuyasha, hitokiri battousai and kyou sohma.....you notice how all of the characters are male?&#33;?&#33;?&#33; i wanna cosplay as sesshoumaru this year....hmmmm, well, i also wanna cosplay as kaname chidori and tohru honda.

Hmm...maybe Auron from FFX? That&#39;s a popular one...:heh: I was going to do San next year, but then the idea of War of Genesis (Part One (http://www.genesis3.co.kr/part1/htm/charactor.htm), Part Two: Ep. 4 (http://www.genesis3.co.kr/part2/character/index4.htm), Ep. 5 (http://www.genesis3.co.kr/part2/character/index5.htm)) arose...so many cool possible costumes... :heh:

I was surfing the internet for a kimono, when I bumped into some one who was selling a Sesshomaru outfit (Along with kimonos), With the armor and all. That was pretty cool.

I was thinking of trying Robin this halloween. My mom could put my hair up in those pigtails. That would be interesting.

That&#39;s not a bad idea...*looks at a pic of San* Ehh...minus her big furry cape or cover thing it isn&#39;t that difficult of a costume. *keeps San on her cosplay list for AX05* And don&#39;t worry about it...I&#39;m not too great at sewing myself...to avoid that problem I usually just look around a vintage store or some department stores and see if anything resembles my costume idea remotely... :heh: And if I must I&#39;ll go ahead and sew stuff up. This time the plan is to try and get a head start... X_X

really.. i&#39;d never thought a badly made game like magna carta would be so famous around the world o_o
most of the costumes are based on korean traditional clothing, funk it up and you&#39;d look like one of them from MC

Yeah it kind of shocked me to see that the game never was released and then now it just popped up out of the middle of nowhere...but it&#39;s pretty cool nonetheless :heh: Plus the music on the opening page of Magna Carta: Crimson Stigmata (http://www.magnacarta.jp/) is kind of pretty...

Korean traditional clothing?? O_O -looks around- ..I didn&#39;t notice that.. -smacks self- =_= well I&#39;m worthy of being called a Korean..

That&#39;s true, about Ladrinne, that is.. -sighs- x.X; I&#39;m still not sure about Adora either. It&#39;s tempting..looks fun to make and wear....=_=

Hmm...I think I&#39;ve seen some pictures of people that have cosplayed as Adora...they might know something, and if not...well there&#39;s this nice site with Hyung-Tae Kim&#39;s artwork for MC and WoG...check it out...you might find something.

Hehehe, I LOVE cosplaying. I really want to cosplay as Midori from Midori no Hibi or that 6 wing angel off Angel Sanctuary (I can&#39;t actually remember her name, I just have this really gorgeous picture of her costume). This year I&#39;m cosplaying as Rin with Inu-chan being Sesshoumaru-sama. Last year she cosplayed with two of our other friends as the Kenshin-gumi. I played a cat in this weird cat suit thing.

I really want to do a cosplay of Kimichi Tone and maybe Kyoko of FMP.
I just need to find a bishie to dress up ^_^ :drool:
Or maybe I could drag around a cardboard cutout? :think:
Jk. I&#39;m not that crazy.

I think the best thing about cosplaying is that it&#39;s fun designing and making the costume and then it&#39;s fun to act out your characters....er.....character.
I love playing hyper happy characters cause I can do anything and then say "It wasn&#39;t me...that&#39;s what that character would do&#33;"

Inu-chan, if you can hear me....COSPLAY MISAO MAKIMACHI&#33; You&#39;re perfect for the role&#33; I really want Hexe to cosplay as Angela from Somedays Dreamers....they have the whole British witchy feel going on.

Has anyone got any good ideas for cosplay characters? I really want to do something different and extravagant but maybe...easy.... :doh: yes, I&#39;m a self-confessed idiot.
Bye&#33;

I LOVE cosplaying...I have over 30 cosplaying outfits and I don&#39;t even save them for the cons, I go out cosplaying sometimes ^^. Lol, over half my closet is cosplaying clothes. I&#39;ve done over.....7 characters and usually at least 2 outfits for each char...right now I&#39;m finishing up my Love Hina cosplaying outfits(making every single outfit I see). Hehe, it&#39;s hard, but it&#39;s fun. I&#39;m almost 100% with Naru and Kitsune. Then I&#39;m off to look for another anime to raid. ^^ :heh: :whistle:
