Honestly, I was never really into cosplaying until recently, and that's because I'm cosplaying for the first time at this upcoming convention, Nekocon! I will be cosplaying as Mikasa Ackerman from Shingeki no Kyojin (Attack on Titan.) I've always had ideas of which characters to cosplay and I usually try to pick the ones with the same hair color as me...just because the idea of wigs freak me out a bit. Dx I dunno why, they just do! But I also chose Mikasa because she's my favorite character because why not? She's so perfect! In fighting, anyway. Unfortunately, I don't really know how to make clothing or the like so I spent a good amount of money buying the clothing. But it's really fun waiting for it to come in the mail and stuff! :D I have most everything. The only thing missing is the belt set! So does anyone else here cosplay? If so, as who? I wanna hear about everyone's cosplaying experience!! #Post#: 464-------------------------------------------------- Re: Cosplay anyone?~ By: Stella Rose Date: October 7, 2013, 10:23 pm --------------------------------------------------------- also...anyone going to Nekocon perhaps? #Post#: 465-------------------------------------------------- Re: Cosplay anyone?~ By: momokitty Date: October 8, 2013, 12:28 am --------------------------------------------------------- Sadly I'm to busy to visit a con but I have cosplyed before and I LOVE IT!! ;D I've been Sai from Hikaru-no-go and Organization XIII Riku with the Souleater prop It was so much fun!

Did it get really hot underneath all the cardboard? #Post#: 585-------------------------------------------------- Re: Cosplay anyone?~ By: dark_wing19 Date: October 11, 2013, 10:23 pm --------------------------------------------------------- Cosplaying is sooooo much fun! I really enjoy it! (Thus yes, I cosplay~) I cosplayed a Umbreon gijinka when I went to Onicon back in 2011, and then a Vulpix gijinka at A-kon 24. I thought it was cute, but it was so crowded at A-kon that no one acknowledged it. Dx *le sigh* But I revamped the coloring, and I'm (hopefully) going to Ikkicon this December. I will be cosplaying as a shiny Vulpix this time. Maybe people will get it this time. Dx (I tried doing a Lolita Vulpix with a "sweet" nature. I guess that didn't convey well...) Other than that, I plan on cosplaying Lal Mirch from KHR at some point. ^^ #Post#: 587-------------------------------------------------- Re: Cosplay anyone?~ By: Rei Date: October 11, 2013, 11:03 pm --------------------------------------------------------- I've cosplayed twice so far, my first try was with a quickly made Umbreon hoodie that I put together a few days before AWA 18. This year at AWA 19 I was the White Robed Wanderer from Journey while my friend was the Red Robed Wanderer. The masks were really hard to breathe in (a mistake of a first time self-made cosplay) I'm going to redo the masks and take them to AWA 20 next year. I worked too hard on them not to! I'm also hoping to do a few different cosplays next year as well. My friend wants to go as Ingo nd Emmet, the pokemon subway bosses from Black and White. My mom is also going (she's so much fun haha), and she wants to do a steampunk costume, so I told her I'd make one with her. I'm also going to see if I can't use some of the material I have left over from my Journey cosplays from this year and make a Final Fantasy White Mage costume. The Ingo/Emmet costumes are going to be ordered online. Its actually cheaper for me that way because all the cloth stores here are really far, and my knowledge of sewing wouldn't fill a page in a book (I got my grandma to do it for me this year). So I'm trying to keep that to a minimum. The steampunk is going to be a lot easier since I already have most of the stuff, I just need to help my mom get hers together. She's going to use an old brides maid dress she had from when she was younger and touch it up to give it a steampunk feel. I'm just going to do more of a tom-boyish thing and go with that. xD I don't do dresses. White Mage costume should be easy all except the staff. Which, if I'm luck I can find some of those handcrafted walking sticks at our local antique/junk store and put two together to make my staff. :D I found a bunch of old coo-coo clocks there last year and have a bunch of neat stuff for my steampunk stuff from it, I saw those sticks too but had no need for them at the time. Hope he still has some nice ones. xD ***************************************************** DIR Next Page
