    Neat.......then what I'll do is progressively morph it into something entirely different.


    Question....I have an early Halloween party coming up. Bane or Thor?

    Go.

    CosPlay is what motivated me to get back in the gym...My brother and his friends were going to a con in NY in October as the Avengers, but the girl going as Black Widow had to drop out. So they invited me! I'm excited, but that costume is so body conscious that I have had to really work hard to get into it and feel confident/comfortable in it. I have to give the seamstress my measurements by Sept 20, so I have less than a month to get where I need to be. #fingerscrossed

    that's so cool! So many things I want to dress up as. Poison Ivy, the great fairy, sailor mars, commander shepard, a nurse from silent hill, a mermaid. So many possibilities. and, yes, of course I want to see pics. :D

    Awesome, I will upload them when I get home then i'll try not to spam the thread with pictures :D

    I have! I went as Death from the Sandman comics to PAX last year just for fun-- not strictly relevant to the con, but then again, neither were all the awesome Doctor Who cosplayers there.

    Husband and I have been considering League of Legends characters or Infinite Crisis characters for next spring.

    They want to do Dr Who cosplay this year, but I haven't really strategized it yet.

    I would love to cosplay eventually. I dressed up as Fionna from Adventure Time for Halloween last year, but I would love to actually craft my own costume for a convention. Especially Ultimate Madoka from Madoka Magica or Saha Braus from SnK (already overdone, though).

    Belle Chere is my favorite cosplayer as I'm so envious of her curves... gawd.

    I never heard of "cos play" before MFP.

    I was kinda disappointed to learn what it was, it sounded a lot dirtier at first.

    I haven't technically cosplayed, but I've dressed up multiple times. I usually go to Harry Potter conventions every year.

    Question, is CosPlay just about wearing a cool costume? Or do you actually "play," as in use a script or ad lib the role of whatever character's costume you are wearing?

    I always assumed it was both, but based on some responses here, I'm beginning to wonder.

    It's my goal to feel un-self conscious enough to cosplay. I'm getting there. :D

    awesome. did you just march around or compete? seriously, that's frickin cool

    We did both, got second place for group. The best part though was we would find a spot and stand still next to other convention props and when people would get close to take pictures, we would scare the hell out of them.
