Feel free to slap me for being too ambitious. xD

I'm still being so indecisive. :/ I actually went and bought about $40 worth of art supplies over the course of this week and I still don't know if I should really go through with the crazy plan in my head or not.

Poll I need another cosplay for Tekko 8!

Neptune would be the easiest out of the three, but I'd also have to dish out a lot of money for my friend's mom to make the beautiful

You could wear his cloak, and I know how you love his cloak! XD

[firebird_88]

LOL. Bias much?

D: I do love his cape. It's so cool and gravity-defying and layered and stuff. It'll be a bitch to make though, haha. I'm thinking of getting one of my cosplay friends to make it, I don't trust my ability. xD

[elirian_19]

Me? Biased? Of course not. >_> LOL.

If you could get your friend to make the cape then that would take at least some stress of off you. I'm just wondering how you're going to pull off the gravity defying bit... BUT, I'm sure you'll be fine. *patpat*

If you don't mind me asking, how do you decide who you're going to cosplay?

[firebird_88]

Nah I doubt I'll be doing the gravity defying bit. xD; Already waaaay too worried about the jewelry and the wig, haha. Tekkoshocon is in the same place with the awesome roof, though, and knowing Pittsburgh it's ALWAYS windy, so hopefully that'll make up the gravity defying-ness? 8D

Uhhhh totally random. 8DDDDD Well, I always cross off people I know I physically can't pull off --namely really big, tall guys and really curvy women (like Trish from Devil May Cry). That leaves me with girly guys and pretty girls, I guess, haha.

I get struck with inspiration randomly. :/ Atem was from a "HOLY SHIT, I SHOULD TOTALLY TRY!" moment about a week ago. Haku from Spirited Away struck me yesterday, so I could do him too. xD I dunno, it's random. I guess I really have to want to cosplay someone and then angst about the costume for a bit before going through it. I've already invested so much of my brain into trying to figure Atem out that I think it'd be a shame if I didn't at least give him a try. :/

Thanks for the answer! I have finally decided that for my bro's b-day party I'm going to go as Raito from Death Note. It should be simple enough, but I think the hair's going to be the biggest issue. And getting my hands on a Death Note lookalike, of course. >_

[firebird_88]

Hehe that was my first cosplay! ;3 There should be plenty of wigs like his by now. And Death Notes are really cheap 'cause they're mass producing them now. ^^

[elirian_19]

Awesome! Minimal effort the first time round, I think. xD I'll definitely have to track down a Raito wig somewhere (thanks for the wig tips, btw) and I know a few good anime shops where I could get a Death Note (I hope). I'm actually quite excited now. ^___^ The sad thing I think is that only one person will probably know who I am. D:
