My con isn't until late October, so I have plenty of time to get fabric, etc. Plus, I want to try something new this summer!

Soo, I'm dark-skinned. But I don't think that that should be a set-back :]
I have long dark brown hair, but I'm open to wigs if necessary.
My eyes are the same dark brown and I wear glasses. I've never used contacts before, but I'm not sure if I would be able to get them or not (because I already have to get braces next month).
Umm, I'm not fat, but I'm not skinny either. So skimpy or revealing costumes wouldn't work too well.
I'm not too confident about cross-playing either...
But here's a picture of me...





Thank you!

You would definately make a great Anthy from Revolutionary Girl Utena:

rosebride:


school unform:


and ova:


edit: forgot to mention, the second one is a fanart. usually she has shorter (pinned up) hair and wears glasses w/the school uniform.

Andichan's suggestion is wonderful.

Besides, all of her outfits are pretty, and none are too skimpy. Go for her. My vote's for her!

Same here. She really looks pretty and the outfits compliment her.

Cool! Thanks a lot for the suggestion!

I think I'll try it out =]

Just for future reference of other dark-skinned characters, you can look at this thread, since it's been mentioned before:

there are LOTS of good ideas. Personally, I don't think people have to be limited by skin tone for characters, but I realize that it does look more accurate. (I secretly want to cosplay as anthy but am so white I'm practically see-through! lol)
