Okay, so you are going to a big convention, Sci-fi, anime, whatever. Who do you want to cosplay the most. What materials do you need? What is the best cosplay experience you have had? What Characters have you cosplayed before?

And for those of you who don;t like cosplayers or think that cosplaying sucks, i would ask why you even bothered to click on this thread.

Personally, I will be going to Anime North dressed as Jake Sully in his Avatar Form. I have cosplayed several characters of my own making, as well as Lockon Stratos, Hie from Darker Than Black, L, and Captain Aizen.

Okay... GO!

Well:

The coat cost £240, the suit £30, the shoes £40, the FOBwatch (below): priceless (£40)

Well, if I did cosplay, I would like to go as either Spike Spiegel, or the Spy from TF2.

 

[Ophiuchus]

I cosplay as the average guy who walks around in normal cloths. I am a pro at that.

I haven't actually cosplayed as anyone, mostly due to my obsessiveness over everything so if I actually wanted to cosplay as anyone, I would have to be perfect, and I do not have the time or resources to do that.

This is pretty much word-for-word what I was going to say. Also I'd have to travel to the venue in cosplay and... yeah, I'm a bit too self-conscious for that. Even if it's likely that a lot of people would be travelling in the same sort of state.

Theoretically, though: if I had the time, resources and guts, I'd probably go as someone from a Final Fantasy game, 'cos that's how imaginative I'm not. Or maybe Ezio from Assassin's Creed 2.

 

[Katana314]

I'll probably never do it in my life. But if I do, there are only two characters I consider cool and casual enough to try.
Prosecutor Godot, from Ace Attorney...
and Cid Highwind from FFVII (in the face of a whiny emo protagonist? EASILY the superior character. And for a moderate portion of the game you get to play as him)

 

[Lord Beautiful]

I cosplay as L all the time, though admittedly, I don't go to anime conventions. Or intentionally cosplay. Or wear my hair that way.

 

[Blackmagic1515]

I've never cosplayed although I'd like too. My friends and I were going to go as a whole big Kingdom Hearts group to the London MCM Expo in May. Although some are pulling out now so we might have to wait til next year. Annoying cos I was going to be Sora.
I prefer dressing up as guy characters but if I had to be a girl I suppose being Tifa would be awesome, if I lost a bit of wait. If I died my hair black I could pull off a pretty good Xion tho.

*gasp-gasp* awesome! Dx Kudos.

...also, why am I not a tall skinny male with a somewhat crooked nose who looks ridiculously great with blackrimmed glasses? D: that is by far the weirdest thing I've said today.

I'm too fat to cosplay as anyone. :< Though if I had the physique for it I'd... still have no idea who to cosplay as. *Shrug*

You could be that one fat guy from that one fighting game.

You'll have to be more specific than that. xD

Maybe he's referring to Bob from Tekken 6.

I believe that might be the case! And if so, yeah I probably could. :O

Looks at avatar...
Looks back at post...
Bowser?

And yes, I suppose I could also play as Bowser. Though I'd have no idea where to begin with a Bowser outfit. xD

Henchman #24 from Venture Bros.

I'm glad there are so many people on these forums with better memories than mine. xD I love that show and I love 24. I guess because I never see it I never thought about it. T_T

 

[notascleverasithinkiam]

I'd cosplay as "Viewtiful Joe".

Henshin-a-go-go baby!!!

I'd also love to go as Joe, but I'm thinking of going as Hellsing's Father Anderson for my first as a warm up. Plus, not sure how I'd look in spandex

 

[Syntax Error]

There's also that cook from Street Fighter 4. Forgot his name though.

 

[Kuchinawa212]

I do have a meh rosrscach costume and a pretty good Star Fleet TNG yellow uniform

what I want to go is a F3 brotherhood of steel. Not sure how to make it, Pink foam and balsa wood most likely

Oh and a Space Marine. I've seen instructions on the internet, not sure about them still

I'm thinkin the biker-ish guy with the Yellow Jumpsuit.

Still doesn't ring a bell. Then again I've never been a big fan of fighters.

OT: I suppose I could always try going as Coop from MegasXLR. xD

I think he means rufus from street fighter

Spoiler

....No. Just... he scares me.....

 

[GrinningManiac]

Not going to lie. Cosplayers freak me out a bit.

But whatever floats your boat I guess.

Even if you dress up as a Victorian era South African steampunk airship captain?

... *puts goggles on*

Why'd you even ask him?

[HEADING=2]EVERYONE[/HEADING] dresses up as steampunk airship captains [HEADING=2]ALL THE TIME![/HEADING]

It's the coolest thing that's getting down with the kidz today, yo!

OT: If it were Steampunk, I would do it

 

[The DSM]

I would if I looked like an Anime charcter to start with, it would take too much resources/time to look remotely like anyone.

I dont mind coplayers, I admire there dedication.

 

[GundamSentinel]

I want set of Stormtrooper armor. Not for conventions, but to walk around the city on a regular day for a laugh.

 

[Haunted Serenity]

I haven't been able to yet but if i ever get a chance to go to a games day(GW) i'm going as a commissar and an anime convention i'll ethier go as Captain Konnumara(with his helemt),Captain Kurotsuchi or Telsa...All bleach

 

[escapistraptor]

I've been cosplaying for awhile, but my favorite one by far has been my Missing No. costume from Pokemon Red and Blue.
