Anyone on here cosplay?

Maria_Cutie

So, the anime/manga/gaming/comic/general nerd community should know what cosplaying is! It's basically dressing up as a character from a series.
Cosplay = Costume Play for those who don't know about it

So, I'm a crossplayer mainly, and I love to cosplay, one of the main reasons I'm trying to lose weight is for well.. Cosplay!
All the characters I Choose to dress up as are well, very thin Males, so, I'll show you a picture of me full body, then my character, then me dressed up as the character. I want to see your chubby cosplays too! or hear about your cosplay goals, or tell me if you're interested I'm just curious~
Here's me (at prom with my date):



Here's my character:



Here's me as the character with a separate make up shot:




Thats Sebastian!

I don't cosplay yet, I'm hoping to get into it more when I lose some weight I DO, however, still parade around in costume--I frequently go to renaissance faires, pirate festivals and the like in full garb!

Hinata is on my cosplay list as well! shes actually a character anyone could pull of at a larger weight because of her big jacket!

That's true! I figure I can pull off any character that's quiet and large chested :laugh: And I love both of them so much, of course!

I don't cosplay, but I want to! Once I'm done losing and toning that is!

I've done it before, but I'm not too terribly good at it. For one con, my entire costume was a "Chain of Fate" (Bleach) made out of duct tape.

My fiancee is more into it than I am now, he's working on an amazing John Connor cosplay for the next con we can afford to go to.

who do you have in mind?

I love costumes in general, so I would love to go to DragonCon (we live in Metro ATL after all) in costume. I'm more into sci-fi than anime. I've considered dressing up as Kaylee Fry or maybe Inara (from Firefly) a hobbit or Eowyn from LotR, or maybe Princess Leia. I'd love to make a copy of one of the on screen costumes.

I've been to several RenFests and Highland Fests in non-historically accurate costumes. I'd love to make some real garb.

I'm fascinated by historically accurate garb. It combines my love of sewing and history. It's on my bucket list to make a real historically accurate outfit for myself. Everything;chemise, corset, petticoats, skirt and bodice.

Something like this lady has done.

Couple of pics from a Highland games some friends and I dressed up for. I'm in the red skirt with the baby in green.

who do you have in mind?

Seras Victoria from Hellsing. I want to get my bf to engineer me her sweet *kitten* sniper rifle! That, or my Mage from WoW in full tier. Which tier? I haven't decided yet! xP

AnathemaRose

I do~!
Or, well, did.
Then I moved and gained weight like woah and can't fit into any of my cosplays which are sitting in my closet as if saying "D: Lose weight and wear me again."

I don't have any pictures on this computer and I can't get mine right now buttttt...

I've cosplayed Matt from Death Note (with longer hair cause I never bought a wig), Nana O. from NANA, C.C from Code Geass and Female!Kaito (Vocaloid).

If I can find some pictures, I might have one for theMatt. . .

o: By the way, you all have amazing cosplays.

just in case you couldn't tell :-P

My goal is to look like a manga character.

SKP1986

I've always wanted to cosplay, but refuse to until I am much, much thinner.

evonday

just in case you couldn't tell :-P

OMG, the illusion is complete! xP

Lleldiranne

I haven't done cosplay yet, but I have friends who do, and I see it at the local sci-fi/fantasy/etc convention every year. It looks like fun! Maybe when I'm not spending so much time in school I can actually work on a costume.

Mirelmture

I have cosplayed in the past.

Original Persocom - Chobits
Saruka Platinum Dress- Card Captor Sakura
Hinata - Naruto
Sakura School Uniform - Card Captor Sakura
Chii - Chobits

At first it was my sewing ability that made me not want to continue. My costumes were how should I say...frumpy. Now I think I'd feel self-conscious of my figure too. I don't know if I'll ever have time to sew very nice costumes, I have so many art projects all the time already. But if I ever find the time, I'd enjoy giving it another go.

VampireKame

I love cosplaying xD. So far my cosplays have been:

Sora- Kingdom Hearts II
Tamaki- Ouran High School Host Club
Honey- Ouran High School Host Clube
Ikuto (Death Rebel)- Shugo Chara
Pikachu- Pokemon
Marth- Fire Emblem/ SSB Brawl

And in the future I plan to cosplay:

Jin- Tekken 5
Ryu- Street Fighter
an X-Men character (not sure which one yet xD.
Kaname Kuran- Vampire Knight
Yuki- Fruits Basket


My list will just continue growing xD

Kichelchen

I don't cosplay, but I love people who do, does that count? XD I guess I'm a bit too shy and I prefer watching other people dress up (like a creep) which doesn't mean that I love my mangas and animes any less
