Costumes!

Post by A-20 » Wed Oct 12, 2005 8:14 am

Oh wow~! You guys, I need some major help. I don't know who to go as to the con next year and there are so many to choose from! ~.~
So far I have the ideas of going as:
-Lyserg
-Jin the Wind Master
-Hajime Leafe Knight of Water
-Possibly Shigure Sohma from Fruits Basket (Misty wants me to go as him)

*Now I wanna go as either Kuja:
Image

or Zidane
Image

But there are so many I want to be, I don't know who to choose! (Yes, I know all the above are male characters, even though I am female. Don't know what girl I'd go as.)

Any suggestions?^^;;
I need help @_@

My vote's for Kuja. He can very easily be adapted into a female costume :]

Hm...All right. I suppose Kuja it is. ^_^ Just to figure out how to make it will be a hassle, oh well. One must find something to do. ^^;

Any other ideas of who I should go as?

I think Kuja would make an awesome cosplay, but for figuring-out-the-cosplay reason, any description or photo for us to go by? ^_^

Well, I've strained my brain, and I KNOW there's a character eluding my memory, but I'd still say Kuja is a good one ^_^

I would just grow my hair out for my Mitsurugi cosplay, but he has some l-o-n-g hair (Looks to be about 2 feet long, mine's about 8 inches long XD)

Wigs are evil.

Really? That'd take awhile to grow out that long. My hair won't be long enough for Kuja in a year, but I'll see how long it gets by then. It's already to my shoulders. And I can change my hair color for the cosplay :P

Now I just need to work on my sewing skills, work on saving my money, and well...not tick my parents off. ~.~ This'll be a long year. ~.~;;

Girls grow out hair sooooo much faster than guys, it's not fair :(

I've been growing my hair out f-o-r-e-v-e-r, and when I tell girls how long it's been, they're all like "Really? Wow, it'd be halfway down my back by now" -_-;

Wow this conversation is amusing :D
And about hair growth... I cut my hair in.... I think early august to about two inches all over (instead of 1-1 1/2 in the back, 5-6 in front), and it's october now and it's only grown about an inch at most :cry: I'm growing it out for my Onime No Kyo cosplay....
And Fialchar, wouldn't you look wierd with glops of glue and random long strands of hair all over your own hair???

Funny...I looked at your pictures and immediately thought you looked like some video game character I'd seen before...it was really bothering me until I looked closer at that picture of Kuja...I think that was it. ^_^
But if I think of another one, I'll let you know.

For the most part, yes. I have dark brown (nearly black) hair from my Japanese side, and medium brown hair from my white side. So in the end, my hair looks dark brown sometimes, and black sometimes.
