Title: You could cosplay as...
Post by: Adam (birkin) on May 06, 2013, 03:37:27 AM
Inspired by Keaira's post (since she doesn't like to make her own threads and was hoping someone else would do it :P)

Quote from: Keaira on May 06, 2013, 03:16:18 AM
Hey, maybe that would be a fun thread to start. We could call it, "You could cosplay as..." :)

Basically you post pics of yourself and people suggest what character you could cosplay as.

Go!

Well, this is a picture from last Halloween (my costume wasn't completed yet though).
(https://www.susans.org/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi344.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fp328%2FMercyJero%2FPhotoon2012-10-31at0813.jpg&hash=73661e9029c646be24f308210228e51bb80cbff8) (http://s344.photobucket.com/user/MercyJero/media/Photoon2012-10-31at0813.jpg.html)

Ok I am not the best judge of this (far from it) since I think anyone should be able to cosplay as who they want, so bear that in mind. Also, this would be easier if I knew what characters people like.

Calico, sorry I'm drawing a bit of a blank on specific characters.
Venus-Castina, I think you could make a good Integra Hellsing if you wanted to.
Jennifer, I think you could do Amy Pond from Doctor Who.
There are several other characters you could cosplay as (depending on resources), but I am drawing a bit of a blank at the moment. I also firmly believe you could cosplay as whoever you want.

Edit: I like villains. The chances of me playing a hero aren't very likely unless they're creepy.

Whatever character people may suggest, I'm going as Arrietty coming August.

First of all, I love that movie! You go girl!

And my suggestions would be:

This girl http://www.cinemapulse.com/storage/journal-images/chloe_moretz_let_me_in.png (http://www.cinemapulse.com/storage/journal-images/chloe_moretz_let_me_in.png)

She is played by Chloƫ Grace Moretz in the movie Let Me In. The name of her character is Abby. I think she's really beautiful, and you guys look a bit similar in my opinion.

Or:

Dr. Temperence Brennan, who is played by Emily Deschanel. She's the lead character in the TV series Bones.

Here's a link to her picture. http://croobal.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Emily-Deschanel2.jpg (http://croobal.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Emily-Deschanel2.jpg)

Yeah, I think you and her look like you could be related. And that's a good thing cause she's really pretty :)

I can't really think of any character for you at the moment Jennifer.L! If I can think of one later on I'll post it.

And Edge, I was thinking maybe detective Conan http://images4.fanpop.com/image/photos/17300000/dc-detective-conan-17352255-857-933.jpg (http://images4.fanpop.com/image/photos/17300000/dc-detective-conan-17352255-857-933.jpg)

Do you know that anime? :)

I like these choices! :D

I'm bad at thinking of what other people could be good as, but my pic's in my avatar if anyone wants to make a suggestion. :3

I've only ever cosplayed her and Misty from Pokemon before, but I'm doing Leon from Resident Evil this year at Otakon. I'm hoping I can pull it off well enough!

I'm almost done putting together my Szayel costume. I may even be able to wear it to costumed bowling this sunday. I still might even though I might not have the wig. I have no idea how I'll look since 1) I have freckles and 2) I know I won't be able to pass due to my shape, but I'll post pictures if I get some and they're not too embarrassing.

Rowan's got almost the perfect hair for Szayel, you could "borrow" hers. Just cut it off while she's sleeping.

And Rowan, of course, you could cosplay as Anne Hathaway. But I know you've heard that a lot of times already :3
So that's who she reminds me of! Nah. Her hair looks great on her. I think she should keep it.
Rowan, I also think you could coslay as Leeloo from The Fifth Element.
Calico, I honestly think you could cosplay as anyone you want.

Me as Szayel. Sort of. I have freckles and the wrong complexion not to mention bone and facial structure, the hair isn't right, wrong eye colour, I'm not in character, and I didn't finish making the glasses on time.

Ok, looked up crossplay.  I'm assuming you are thinking of a male character which is the closest you could get to calling something a crossplay for me.  No I wouldn't be offended, I'm interested to know actually.
