All I ever see on the trains and such as all them anime / manga / whatever they are calling themselves these days - people. Some red haired girl, guys with huge swords and so on. Never seen an actual convention worth getting dressed up for either. Might get dressed up for next years run. It's a pretty big thing with like 23000 people, so a Link in the crowd should probably stick out.

The only cosplayer I've ever seen in real life was a person who came into the store where I work dressed as Link, including the pointy ears. No, I have no idea why.

Reminds me of about two days ago, when my mom saw a guy dressed up as a pirate in Safeway.

PS best cosplay ever.

Indeed. That's pretty awesome...and the Metal Gear Solid guy next to him just makes the pic.

I once wanted to go to a convention as Aika from Skies of Arcadia, but then I realized that most people wouldn't get the reference and decided not to. I didn't wind up going to the convention either, hence why I've only ever seen one cosplayer.

I've never cosplayed, and to be honest, I never will. No lying that some are pretty awesome, though.

I mean... I'm not THAT much of a nerd!

Seems pretty sweet. Especially with the versatility of the suit - like you said, you can do a lot with it both in and out of cosplaying.

I'm actually working on a first cosplay (well, I believe the word is crossplay in my case) myself - specifically Ephraim from FE8. I'm worried that I'm a little short to pull it off :(

I shamefully cosplayed as cloud once... I DID make a kickass duct tape buster sword tho. I still have it somewhere.

That was when I was 13. I never did one again and I never will. Like cerb, they're just not for me. Though there are some badass cosplay out there.

Need I repost the QWOP video from the YoutTube thread?
Title: Re: I decided to cosplay.
Post by: fruckert on August 14, 2011, 10:31:53 PM
No.
I'd still think sprite Samus is cooler.

Post by: Natako on August 14, 2011, 10:33:45 PM
I'm going to have to agree with Fruckert on this one. The QWOP cosplay was funny, but damn...sprite Samus is just awesome.

Nope. **** you guys. QWOP.

I have a friend that just spent like $1000 on a Zelda costume.  If I were to cosplay to anything, it would probably be pokemon. haha
Title: Re: I decided to cosplay.
Post by: fruckert on August 15, 2011, 01:11:45 AM
I would be "Generic steampunk dude #4892"

Someone would have gotten the reference. The crazy hair is unmistakable. Is there any way you could have pulled it off?
Title: Re: I decided to cosplay.
Post by: Natako on August 15, 2011, 02:12:18 AM
At the time, I think my hair was still red. Yeah, my hair's pretty much been every color but black at some point, but it's naturally brown. The hair would probably have been significantly less crazy, though. :P

And I have yet to meet another person in real life who has played Skies of Arcadia, but I'm sure there would be some of those lurking about at a convention.
Title: Re: I decided to cosplay.
Post by: Cerebus on August 15, 2011, 02:18:49 AM
I'd cosplay as Cerebus. If anyone got the reference, I'd say "Hello, fellow Charasian!"
Or maybe the Doctor from Assassin's Creed Brotherhood.

But of course, I won't. Beside, I don't have money for this. And it doesn't actually interest me.

My favorite cosplayer is in a picture taken at a furry convention.

I'm not into cosplay, tho.  Halloween was enough.

Honestly I also planned on stealing this guy's idea, and making Spy Disguise masks of random anime characters, then hanging out with the appropriate mask for each group trying to backstab them.

Wonder if anyone would get my super nerd cosplay.

Oh, and another thing I wanna do some time. Yamcha. But that's only after my hair is longer. And when I get some badass muscles to show off.

I think if you did it just right - like had the pokeballs and all - it would work. Especially if you got like, I dunno, a Magnemite plushie or some nonsense like that. 
Otherwise people might just be like "herp L", because that's apparently the default bad cosplay these days.

If I cosplayed as anything, it would have to be the Spy, Ezio Auditore da Firenze, or Squall Leonhart.

I'm blu. I can't see a spy in that photo. Just two dogs stood next to each other.

I find your comment pretty funny. I'm also simultaneously trying to decide which Star Wars quote best fits the situation, and not actually uttering it.

Pretty tough.

Nice job, maybe make it cover a bit more over the nose and mouth.

Thanks, and yes the nose bothered me, too.

Thing is the Spy's mask's mouth hole is actually pretty big.

Besides The full costume (http://img809.imageshack.us/img809/5472/p8200058.jpg) kind of fixes that.

I'm resisting the urge to shoop a bunch of cigarettes into your mouth now.

Damnit.

I bought an entire cigar carton and forgot to pose like that.

I'll be bashing my head on the wall, if you need me.
