oh gods yes…do BB! And come to ACen!
@Moon: aw thanks hun. I really like my lower legs honestly. They are really nice at least. It is more my tummy that is all bulgy with rolls that bother me. And then skinny people who complain about being fat does nothing to make me feel better about myself.
yea i am going to acen this year it on part of my route…
@helpmenow316 YES.. PLEASE COSPLAY BLACK BEARD ___ We will love you forever!!! DX!!!
lol with that how can i refuse…....
is that you? if so…. I'd definitely say YES you could _ at least you seem to have an intimidating presence bout you!! You make me wanna cosplay Doc Q so bad xDDDD I hate that my sis and I would be so SO short compared to you, Mr. 6ft tall xDD
Yea that is me..why els would i post a photo?? Why dont you and your sister get on each other shoulders…then you should be tall enough to cosplay as him... or use stilts.....
-
@Help: Awesome! And please please please do BB there! I have been trying to convince a friend of mine to do BB, but he won't /sadface.
@Coral: Thanks hun!
-
Here is a before/after type pic of the boots. Was going to post what I have of the whole outfit. But some people won't stop talking about how fat they are and well that just makes me feel pig disgusting. And when I took the pictures and looked at them, I was just all :sad: whale huge looking. So I am going to go vomit up three years worth of food now ok? Have fun looking at the boots. lol
Also sorry the picture quality is really crappy for some reason.

I like your take on the boots! Yeah, the DBZ boots are not all that flattering in real life. They kinda remind me of those ugg boots now that I think about it. Similar shape and thickness.
I can't wait to see what this winds up looking like!

yeah sure….

I think you defenetly should try making BB cosplay.
BUT - do NOT go for Jaya version.
Go for current one.
Yes, it's WAY more complex, but it will make you look decent, not some… well... Let's stop here XD -

-
If you go for Jaya version, it's a bandana, green pants and white shirt… Most of the guys have that in their wardrobe. So it would look kinda... Not worth the try, you know :D
So make his current outfit, the hat, the cape, jewels, pistols. Would look amazing. -

Maybe a zombie ace puppet lol

I found this army supplies store online and ordered another skirt, and this one looks 10 times better on me!! I just have to hem it a bit. no more weird looking skirt butt. ha ha ha.
I think to finish my 3 cosplays, I'm gonna need about $100 bucks. I can manage that. I just wanna get them done so I don't have to worry about them anymore. I've spent so much money lately though, i don't wanna spend anymore. >< I wish us canadians got our tax form slips right away like you americans do. I wanna know how much money I'm gonna get back so I can budget all this stuff.
edit: go for it helpme. who cares if i cosplay is easy. all costumes don't have to be an intricate piece of work. as long as it looks decent, and your having fun.
-
I'm working on a Street Fighter Cosplay for some conventions that are coming up in the summer and was wondering if anyone know's if they make wigs similar to Guy's Hair style as my hair does not look like his at all D:

Toshicakes..why don't you comission Charli to make a wig for you. That'd probably be easy for her. XD

Crickeylynn : Maybe lol I wonder how much it's gonna be. cactusmomma: Sank you's for the links :D Those wigs are at good prices lol I do need a wig cap right?
-
I'm glad Cactusmomma found those links for you! There's absolutely NO reason to have to commission something that simple really. I might be looking through those myself for a blond wig for god damn Doflamingo just for kicks xD
-
i think we hit a dead end in the confo..
-
Hullo. I haven't really posted on here for a while, but I started on some more OP cosplay for Fanime. Here's a link to a wip picture:
-
That looks really nice hun!
-
Thanks dude. Hopefully I'll have more progress soon.
-
WHOA JM..what did you use to make that spear head?? It's totally freakin' SWEET!!! DX!! I'm soo freakin' sad I won't get to see it in person ;_; wahhhh
-
looks good man. need a ride to anibash?
-
It's mostly made out of stuff I had around the house - wood, foam core board, craft foam, paint, and hot glue.

That's straight up Macguyver crafting at it's finest!! Still looks damn amazing!!!!
-
Hahaha, thanks. Did I mention I made it while saving a baby from an exploding building with dental floss and a tennis ball? Yeah.
Are you still working on stuff for Apoo? How's that going?
-
Did you fight a bear after saving the baby?
-

stairs at bag of material on the floor… well..uh.... We got side tracked with the Admirals x______x and an Impel Down group we're trying to pull together before Anime Matsuri in a couple months x_x; I wanna do him sooo badly DX!!!
-
yeah yeah yeah!! Got something DONE that's not even part of a costume I had planned to do xD; For what ever reason I put together Luffy's war time outfit, with the yellow shirt and red shorts. Finally found some red Capri pants at JCPeny _ they are AMAZINGLY PERFECT if you cut them off and add the fur trim! So Luffy's done except I'd like to have different shoes and a different wig but that's just me being nit picky.
My goal tonight would be to get the admirals coats together, lining cut out, and kanji of 'justice' ironed onto the backs of them. Doubt it'll all happen but since I slept till nearly 5:30 pm today… I don't care if I get sleep tomorrow =_= I work 3 hours tomorrow. When you get 19 hours or less a week THEN you can hate your job. I'd KILL for a 40 hour a week job ;__;
-
Dude, good luck with all of that. I have a feeling I should be going at that pace too, but Fanime still seems a year away to me, so I'm being lazy. I dunno, maybe I'll sew a shirt or something. Hahaha.
Omnichild, when am I not fighting a bear?

oh god..my sis made a list of about.. 50 things she STILL HAS TO DO.. I need to buy at LEAST 5 wigs.. 60 bucks worth of fur, 2 different colors xD AND somewhere in there..I HAVE to try and lose some weight XD Being Bon-chan in bandages will practically be like going SHIRTLESS x_x and..since I will HOPEFULLY be wearing crappy nasty olive green torn up pants that don't come up over my gut..I..don't wanna have like..obvious 'OH MY GOD LOOK AT ME' muffin top/love handles ;_; I wanna do Bon-chan proud!! xDDD
I cant WAIT to see your guys pictures though ;_; especially your Buggy and Mr.2!!! Claire's gonna be sooo sooo GREAT T______T She's got the PERFECT BUILD that I would DIE for to be cosplaying Mr.2 XDDD Your Buggy looks to be promising too..and I've been DYING TO SEE IT DX!!!!
Also..dying to see your Luffy and her Vivi ___
-
I still have everything to do. I need to email the girl I commissioned Croc's coat from and see if she can still do it, she might have filled her schedule… If that's the case.... looks at Charli with puppy dog eyes I'm just really afraid my sewing machine will go NEIN to the fur... I'm gonna have to sew up another fur coat but since it's really thin (for fur anyway) I think my machine might do it.
Gotta get a shirt, pants (maybe, though I have pants that color they're cut to make one look curvy so that probably wont work, need a straight leg pant), belt, new shoes to mod.... Not to mention the corset, you-know-whats, shoes, fur, shorts, and shirt material for my secret cosplay....
Then everything for Denmark D: If I don't do Denmark I will be beaten by my friends. If I don't do Croc I will cry. If I don't get the secret done I will REALLY cry.... Someone hire Areiiiii
And America's new uniform too, though I won't totally be bummed if I have to give that up right now since I love being casual America, and I don't really plan to wear him to any official gatherings.... Can't wait for the ACen trip to stop on some places on Route 66... <3333333
Also Misty/Melody are you guys still planning on coming to AFest?
-
@Junkee: You are a bear fighting machine. Your battle wounds with the bear are so sexy too. XD
@Arei: T.T Yes you need to get your secret cosplay done!

i was able to salvage a car size mini cooler for my franky costume. i found some stuff at home depo to do the franky arms… i am just waiting for my next pay check to be able to buy more stuff for the arms. And i need to find something for his legs..
The cost of the foam for franky suit i will be making will come out to be about 100 bucks.. And i need to find some motorcycle chain for his costume.
i will also need a new wig... and 2 or 3 gal of laytex ..
i will be starting on BB once when i hit the road....
megacon will be here next month and after that we will be on our way to momocon then pyrate con. after that we going to TX.
-
I'm about to leave Detroit in a couple hours to head home from Katsucon. We had a decent couple gatherings. Met The_Dude on Saturday and there was a creepy older gent taking pics of the females with boobies on Friday. I'll try to get pics once I'm on the bus. Friday ended with an Assassin's Creed snowball fight and Saturday saw a photoshoot for myself and Iris, along with a couple other awesome folks for Fairy Tail (the 3 S class mages, Natsu and Happy.. aka Team Bromage, and Aries and Virgo). I'd post a couple teasers now, but Tim Hortons apparently thinks photo sharing is bad and blocked off photobucket. Wtf.
-
mauahahaha i was able to fine free foam for my costume!
-
FFFFFFFFFFFFFFF I wanna Blackbeard group now ;_; This should happen!!!
-
FFFFFFFFFFFFFFF I wanna Blackbeard group now ;_; This should happen!!!
I cosplay Jesus Burgess, my sis cosplays Doc Q. We'd just need the rest of the crew xDDD
-
I was thinking of doing Lafitte or Shiryuu, though it's come down to either binding my chest to oblivion, or shelling out alot to make a prosthetic chin/nose. That and I love them both and can't choose, though I just don't think my boobs will surrender for Lafitte.
-
Yeah…Lafitte is a hard one x_x; I mean, not hard in a sense since his actual design isn't complicated..but..hard as in you have to practically be a bean pole to pull him off x_x; Before I decided on Burgess I thought Lafitte would be fun..then.. I realized I shouldn't even try him since I'm very curvy and thick..kinda..like a Wrestler..and it turns out somehow..I don't make such a bad Burgess xDDDD Shiryuu is the shit though.
-
ironing Admirals collars xD they look spiffy until I try my experimental sewing them onto the coat and in the actual lining so there is no funky ugly edge… wish me luck cause I generally fail most of the time when i experiment xD;
then I guess I'll be printing the HUGE ASS Justice Kanji and trying to iron that on as well x__x; GAH!!! Don't guess there is a secret to iron ons because I seem to have SO MUCH FUCKING TROUBLE with them x_x;
-
Hey, I've been thinking about cosplaying for a while now. Looking through some of the pages here, I've been awed at how… amazing some of these are. xD
If it's not too much trouble, could any of you point a beginner like myself to some places with tips and how-tos?
I don't even know who I should try to cosplay. ><; -
maybe you should start with that, and then we know how to help you. :)
-
Two things to do first, Prae, to help you choose: pick one of your favorite characters, or pick a character that you can dress up as without changing too much of yourself (make-up, wig, prosthetics, etc.). Everyone will help you from there.
-
that's what my sis and I do. We generally go for the characters we like even though we hardly look like them sighs either because we're short or what not xDD but cosplay to me is about fun. Sure I'm also somewhat of a perfectionist but mostly cosplay is for fun xD
speaking of something NOT fun… getting ready to TRY to print out iron on transfers of Justic Kanji... please have enough Ink Dx
-
Yeah I was thinking even when I got my weight down, I still would have that hourglass, which is kinda meh for Lafitte.
After AFest if I still want to do it, Shiryuu will be my winter project (good lord what is it with me and these types of characters??? xDD)
-
I say even if you don't look EXACTLY like a character..there's no reason not to cosplay it. I do NOT have Bon-chans figure AT ALL, I'm the exact opposite of tall and skinny, but you bet your bottom dollar if I can loose about 30 pounds..I'm DOING his Baroque Works outfit..by god..shakes fist
So I say, go with someone you're passionate about. If you're not passionate about the cosplay or are cosplaying a character you don't like/care for, you're not gonna have that much fun x_x;
-
As much as I love Lafitte I love Shiryuu more XD
I'm always more wanting to do characters I like versus ones I look like, though I don't like to look horribly off-base, that makes it look real half-assed.
I love Croc so much I must do it, even if I am a girl XD I think I'm tall and broad shouldered enough with the coat on it will look ok XD
-
You shouldn't worry soo much Arei! It's not like I'm going to be competing in a cosplay competition, if something thinks I look too girly in my guy cosplays..there's a good reason for that, cause I AM a girl.. xDD I cant' help I have big hips, a big butt, and big legs, it all comes with being a girl sadly. I can't be the most perfect Sanji that has ever existed, but that doesn't stop me from cosplaying him as I'm sure people wish it would xDD LOL
I mean..you can't help but look at someone and say 'Wow, they look soo amazing, if ONLY they were taller…' or something..but..it doesn't matter to me. I've been short my entire life, I can't fix it, so I might as well just life with it and make the best of a bad situation that fate dealt me xD
Especially since my sis and I are going to be doing the Admirals, they're TALL AS ALL HELL, and it doesn't matter. We're still doing them cause we love them! If I saw a really short person cosplaying Crocodile, it wouldn't bother me. I'd still think they're AWESOME just for attempting the cosplay! That's another reason One Piece fans are soo cool, for the most part they don't judge you for having a shit costume, or not being perfect, they're just.. SOO SOO HAPPY that someone is cosplaying One Piece they could care less, and that's why I loves them <333
-
Ahaha, thank you all. XD It's just that I have such a long list of characters I absolutely love.
I always thought DJ from movie 6 would be fun to cosplay, but at the conventions that I attend… there'd be no one who'd know who I was. Last year at Naka Kon there was... one Luffy cosplayer that I saw. :<
If I could somehow drag along my little brother to one as Cutty Flam, I'd go as teenage Iceburg. xD;I guess Paulie would be a fun choice. xD Maybe Doflamingo, just for the freakishly long tongue, haha.
Edit:
Here are some pictures, if anyone wants to make a character suggestion.
I was blessed with a relatively flat chest, so guys are a go. xD
onetwo -
Paulie is always awesome.
I wish i could get someone to be young Franky too DX Though I don't mind going it alone, Young Iceburg is awesoooome (now to just get awesomely thinner DX)
