Nostalgia Critic Cosplay, final item
My Nostalgia Critic cosplay is being assembled! Ordered the hat from ebay, bid on the tie on ebay (I'll know by morning if I've gotten it) got a decent approximation of the coat at Goodwill yesterday (just need to remove some tacky buttons and hope it's not too dreadfully huge on me.) All I need now is the white t-shirt.
Which brings me to a bit of a dilemma. Am I crossdressing this or genderswapping this?
There's a part of me that really wants to try crossdressing. I want to draw a goatee on my face and tie my hair up and wear a sports bra (I don't really have that much to batten down, if you know what I mean.) Heck, I have a friend who has loads of wigs, I could probably stuff my hair under a brown wig if I wanted to be really authentic, instead of looking like ThatSciFiGuy stole the Critic's clothes. (Which is who I'd look like if I tried to dress in drag without doing something about my hair.)
I just don't know. If I'm going as genderswapped I think I'll get a v-neck t-shirt, because I'm more comfortable in those, but if I'm going in drag I'd get a shirt that looks like his usual shirt ... thoughts?
