Who should I cosplay?

Postby Heart of Sword » Tue Apr 04, 2006 8:48 pm

Who should I cosplay as? (It'll be best if you have seen the Elusive HoS. :P)

For those who haven't seen me...I'm 5'4", I'm a teenager, I have a slender build, I have curly brown hair (kinda long), and blue-gray eyes. My face resembles a feminine Kiba (Wolf's Rain).

I don't want to cosplay as someone with a very complex costume. Any suggestions?

I'm going as a Save Point. It's a cardboard box that I spraypainted and wrote "SAVE POINT" on in Sharpie. That's totally not complex.

But...you can't be a Save Point too. So I don't know. XD

Well...since you say you look like a female Kiba..make it easy on yourself and go AS Kiba!

Honestly it all boils down to two questions you must ask yourself
1. What characters do I like
2. How far and how much am I willing for this cosplay

Go through characters make a list then look at these two questions. Look at each one and see if it fits.

Oh and of note, who Gives a rip about what you look like vs the character (im not talking about body type that is one thing that does matter) Makeup and wigs can make you look just about like anyone.

So think of your favorite characters and think about how much you are willing to do to make it work.

I would go as Kiba, but last year I cosplayed Kenshin and I think I'm done with crossdressing...:lol:

I think I'm going to make up my own character...hmm.

How about an NPC? You can wear whatever, and all you have to do is walk back and forth in the same area and repeat the same sentence when anyone talks to you.

It was hysterical. I too am planning to cosplay this year, but I also have no idea what kind of costume I will do.

Good, HOS, good. We're making progress, I see. ;) :P *breaks down* rofl

But, seriously. You could go as Yuna from FFX! No, too hard and you'd probably hate it. Maybe some character like Kaoru, in her dojo gear, or.... anyway I'll get back to you on that!

You know, if you're pretty tall, you could go as Millie from Trigun.

Or maybe Tohru from Fruits Basket?
