    What would you be?

    Realistically using what I have:

    http://endingb.net/images/articles/Travis.jpg

    Travis touchdown from no more heroes, easy to replicate (I have a matching jacket and pants, the t-shirts can be varied, and all I need to do is dye my hair and spike it) and then I need a toy light sabre...which Is why I have yet to do it yet :(

    What I'd rather be:

    http://t3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ldv7kc3n3Pt-VM:http://www.creativeuncut.com/gallery-09/art/re5-albert-wesker.jpg&t=1

    Albert Wesker, RPD costume is nice but his "matrix" one would be better...I could do tbis but this suiot would have to be custom/very expensive...

    I'd also want contacts to make those cat like eyes of his :D


    So if you could cosplay/have/what you can do using the stuff in your room now, what would you be?

    I could be Konishi from The World Ends with You :

    http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20081227233225/twewy/images/thumb/e/e1/Konishi.jpg/284px-Konishi.jpg

    But since it's an outfit I wear all the time, it won't feel like I'm cosplaying. All I need is a wig and a pair of pumps and I'm ready to go!

    That said, I'd rather be...

    Madame Red from Kuroshitsuji. No hawt lady like a red lady.

    AHAHAHA xD

    Yeah well, cosplayers come in every shape and size. No harm if an old one wants to dress up as her.

    But yeah, that dress would be killer to make + I'm so bad with a needle I'll probably come out looking like a victim of a porcupine. Of course, I could probably just get a tailor to make it for me. The tailors where I live(the real ones, not cosplay ones) come pretty cheap here if you hit the older towns. Not many conventions here for cosplays either tho, which is a pity. ;\

    We only get one a year sadly...

    The second pic does look like something I've seen, but it looks more like the melbourne cup than a cosplay judging from the age...and the...figure...


    Though...if I suddenly turned into a girl...

    Im a fan of the gothic stuff.

    Margaret Moonlight From no more heroes 2 <3

    I seen someone go as her via that same site...it's a challenge to make the clothes, let alone match the face...

    Lolita! <3

    That's a lot of frills. But yeah - I've seen great costumes ruined because the cosplayers don't really look like what they're cosplaying. As sad as it is, not everyone can wear something they like and pull it off. I feel strange all the time seeing adorable Japanese girls dressed up as cold-blooded characters. Even though the costume's awesome and everything, something just lacks in it. ;\

    The girl I seen do this one normally does good gothic ones, but...her face is not quite right for this one, what we need is a younger face, and prehaps more dark eye lids :p

    The cosplayer doesn't always match the clothing sad to say...like those fat girls doing the skinny game characters in tight clothing...

    :( I wish I could cosplay, but I don't have money or the patience to make my own costume. Also, there's no way for me to get to conventions, so having a cosplay outfit would be useless.

    If I were to use what I have laying around in my room, then I should be able to cosplay as Rufus, from Final Fantasy VII Advent Children.

    Ideally, I'd go as Ventus from Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep. I doubt a pic of him is needed.

    I'd totally cosplay Issun:

    From my point of view, the only problem is that hat and his sword...

    I would totally go as a tanner Squall or Dark Rock Volnutt, I'll probably go as squall because I can easily get the parts for the costume... there's an anime convention here in Hawaii called "Kawaii Kon" that happens every year, one could get in w/o paying by being "security" which does nothing except look good.

    That cosplayer mildly resembles a tinfoil sausage.
