HEY COSPLAYERS.

[mikenno]

I need something of an opinion. I know a lot of you make your own cosplays so it might be hard for you to gauge, but in U.S. Dollars, what would you say is the estimate cost for a cosplay to be made with proper clothing materials? Like something you could probably even wear every once in awhile as opposed to just for a con

From what I know from observing Paris, a good outfit ranges from 100-200, more depending on things like wigs, contact lenses, etc. This is for ones that have quite a lot of props, though, stuff like Helmeppo and his Kukris, Odette from Odin Sphere, Aigis from Persona 3, etc.

I'm guessing anything above $200 would possibly be going too high?

Also off topic but your music reminded me of it PSO2 FUCK YES AHJIHGIFJHIJGHJ

Yeah. I mean, Touya's clothes are pretty basic and I could probably find any kind of plain messenger bag to match with a logo iron-on or something.

I've yet to come across anything official as far as Touya's clothes go, but I definitely can't make anything myself. ;; I was hoping someone on LJ could recommend me a cosplay maker for when I can afford it and a con to go to.
