Post OP Cosplayers that Really Impress You

omnichild

I am not for sure how many yet. One girl is trying to get a Cindry done, but if she comes to the photoshoot, she will be doing a "living" Cindry.

And then another friend was trying to do an Aokiji, but I doubt he will have it done by then. I told him he was welcomed to come watch though and he might bring a couple friends with.

There are a couple of others. But if they do cosplay it won't be from OP and I have stressed to them that this photoshoot is OP focused, but I am willing to do crack!crossovers when the OP one is done. XD

Are we doing the photoshoot sat? or Sun? or a little of both?

(XD I am trying to redeem myself mentally for being offtopic by thinking that everyone's costumes will be so great, that we will post pictures up here next month of the shoot.)

I just pm'ed you my cell number, so call and/or text (text especially if you're bored), so we can figure something out. I'd personally like to do this on Saturday since my boss is being a pain in the ass about scheduling people (everyone at work that isn't related to the boss or isn't a cook is on 'on call' status right now). I know that I have to pick up a couple people for the meeting, so perhaps if you guys would like, we could meet up extra early at a garden area thing down here in Valpo? Or we could all trek up towards the Rosemont area, I go to the meeting to get my info, then we see if we could get pictures inside the con center by the pretty fountain thing?

Keeping on topic, I'm loving on this group, especially their Kumadori.

Fukurou cosplay XD

MoonNeko

Um. All I have to say, is that is one of the WORST Lucci's I've ever seen. First, they should have either dyed their hair, or gotten a Wig. Last I checked, Lucci has BLACK hair. The Kaku is actually very nice, I've seen a MUCH better Kumadori in person, and I've seen one of the if NOT THE best Califa's around. Their Califa however, wasnt' the worst.

And I guess I could say that the Fukurou cosplay should gets an applause. But.. I can't. It's just a japanese girl wearing a black suit with a green wig and a Zipper. I couldn't even figure out who in the world she was until someone pointed it out.

Youshi Semenjyu

Zipper and a wig do not a Fukurou cosplay make.

MoonNeko

@Youshi:

Zipper and a wig do not a Fukurou cosplay make.

Seconded. I totally agree.

@Youshi:

Thirded.

I didn't even know it was supposed to be Fukurou until after a few minutes of staring. I honestly thought it was a Bleach character that got lost. <w<<br>~Mizu</w<<br>

Except Kaku wears a jacket, not a suit jacket. Though, I do love the hair.

Yeah, it was cool that there is finally a Fukuro, but eh…
Don't even get me started on what I think of that Lucci DX

Seal of Legends

I'd hit that Kaku any day.

Overall a nice little group, but Lucci and Fukurou could've been a bit better.

Lobster Pot-Sticker

Wow o_o

Those were awesome. And the Fokuro one was good. Would yooooou want to walk around in a huge bubble suit all day?

Youshi Semenjyu

I would walk around in a bubble suit all day.

Lobster Pot-Sticker

ORLY?

But would you have the patience to create such a suit?

(taunt)

Custom Coaster

OH man it's a cos~OFF! This should be good!!

Stop being a dipshit.

But I have to say, I find that Fukurou too pathetically cute not to kind of love it. I mean, it obviously doesn't look like him at all, but it's like… amusingly charming. Doesn't gets points for accuracy, but gets points for making me laugh.

Cap'n Carter

only fat people are allowed to cosplay

Youshi Semenjyu

I would have the patience to make it.

The question is, do you have the skill to compete with me?

But alas, fin, thank you. I might have said something that would get me banned. >_>

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I don't know ^^; I've never actually attempted cosplay. Or making clothes for that matter

But alas, fin, thank you. I might have said something that would get me banned. >_>

This is getting interesting

–-----------CHALLENGE-------------
I hereby challenge anyone to make a decent Fokuro Cosplay

The winner will receive a prize

The deadline for entering is this SUNDAY

The deadline for your picture cosplaying as him will be due whenever you guys agree on a reasonable date

So to all you cosplayers out there… this is a challenge. And it applies to EVERYONE. The winner will receive the title of "Greatest One Piece Cosplayer"

This title is good for TWO SEASONS (until summertime)

Just imagine what you could do with such power *****************************

King Kobra

Yea, it would have been better if all of them were cosplaying Jyabura…..

Kuroneko

@Lobster:

I hearby challenge someone to make a descent Fokuro Cosplay

I'm still wondering if you make typos on purpose.

Lobster Pot-Sticker

^Bearsy is dead

;)

King Kobra

Just ignore Lobster if you want.

Anyways, Carter's right, bitching about that girl is like saying that someone would look like shit cosplaying as Pilaf if that person is not short. Yeah, there are bubble suits and what not, and yeah, she could have added some fake facial hair to make it more like Fukurou, but still, you don't know if she had something more important to do besides preparing herself to cosplay with her friends.

KamenRiderNeko

I don't think its about that though. Its another one of those "They're Japanese, so they MUST be amazing cosplayers" when in fact, these particular ones… are not really that impressive. I'm not saying I can do better, I just understand where Youshi and Moon are coming from.

Lobster Pot-Sticker

It seems to me that some people take the opposite approach, as in "they can't be good if they are Japanese".

or

"they can't be good if it's high quality edited picture"

Not everybody. But some certainly do…

Just ignore Lobster if you want.

Hey, Kuroneko was the one taunting

I was being serious about the challenge. But I guess we don't have to have it if you guys don't want to.

Kuroneko

Asian cosplayers vs. everybody else: Round 2

By the way, you missed th shot Lobster. I'm still alive.

Areebee

I've actually been thinking about making a Fukuru suit. A fat one though.
I was thinking that i could make a hollow foam rubber suit, and then i would be seeing through the zipper.

Fun fact is that i actually have a friend who's made several foam rubber suits before, so i have an expert to help me, if i ever decide to actually do it.

Lobster Pot-Sticker

I wonder if it would be possible to make a Fukuro snowman. (and be structurally sound)

Custom Coaster

HAHAHAHAHAHAHahahahaha it's on! Yes this will be get!!!

Actually, it's not that at all. I think they're cute and I do like the Kumadori, makeup especially.

Will this do for fatty Fukurou? :getlost:

AWB

Worst Franky I've ever seen.

Lobster Pot-Sticker

But he's got a mustache'

-That Crocodile pic, is the SAME GUY. The one to the right is "two years later"
-I love the Zoro pose. He's actually holding katanas
-And for the group shot. That's the best Luffy pose I've seen. Gear Secondo. For some reason, every Vivi cosplay has GOLD peacock string slashers. WTF is with that? Is silver/black too hard to find?

AWB

But he's got a mustache'

Which is why he looks more like Ron Pearlman on vacation than Franky.

Still loving on these Shandians. Anyone ever find out who they were (cossers)?

fin fish

No, I wish I knew. I adore that Kamakiri.

CoralSnake

OMFG that Kamakiri is SO damn hot and well done O_O I mean they all look great but he's my favorite ;__; I can't believe people actually cosplayed as them!!! reminds me of the ones at A-Kon that I missed way back when cries very awesome O_O

The inaccuracies on that Shuraiya cosplay bother me.

But she makes a cute Nami. The hair color is very pretty.
