Midlands MCM EXPO @ Telford: 18th Feb 2012?

[iBleeder]

So myself and a few friends are all meeting up at the MCM expo at Telford in three weeks, and we wanted to know if any cosplayers on Gaiaonline are attending?
We wish to know if there are any photoshoots or meet ups arranged and who on here is attending if so? We searched on the MCM official forums and on cosplay Island but we found nothing. D:
So if anyone can provide us with times and places at the expo we would very much appreciate it!

Otherwise, feel free to chat here if you're attending!

Thank you for taking the time to read this thread!

Have you been to a MCM before? O:

[Stripeycow]

Hi there!

Yeah, I have been to a great many in the past but I have not been for a couple of years so I am not sure what has changed.

I know what you mean! So few of us. :s

Are you cosplaying as anyone? Or just attending? :O

Yush yush Higurashi is immense! I mostly love the evil laughs they make and the intense psychologically confusing storyline. How every few episodes the storyline shifts; as if watching different versions of their realities.
Heheh. My friend thinks Shion is more my personality but she is too tall for me to ever consider roleplaying as. x-x
(Being short I like to stick to smaller anime characters).
You love Sasori? Awesome sauce! biggrin Not sure if there will be many other Akatsuki around, apart from my best friend who is going as Itachi. I will probably see loads of Tobi wondering around, though. ;O

Of course it is! I fell in love with Rena's Character so much, she was the perfect Psycho to me hah. Yeah i tend to cosplay the more shorter characters, being 5ft'3 an all hah. Look weird being all small for a tall character D: hah! I like Mion out of the twins, just because she's not as girly as Shion hahah. Oh that's awesome, Yeah Sasori just looked awesome and his red hair emotion_dowant haha! Oh you'll always get Tobis wandering around haha! But i've never been to Telford so i wouldn't know if there would be. Noticed you have a cosplay Island as well? emotion_dowant So do i emotion_awesome

Heheh! Shion's girliness is not what matches me, since I'm into video games, baggy clothes and anything none-girly. xD But apparantly, her quieter and more introverted nature is. xD
Yush yush! It's a challenge to fit a short haired red wig onto my extremely long, blue coloured hair. xD So I have to dye my hair red and really flatten it on my head to get the wig right, else people will see a mix of colour on Sasori's head!
I can relate to the shortness, being only 5'0" myself! Such a nightmare though..I love to cosplay male characters but I always get the trouble of the chest area looking too femine.
So you've never been to Telford before? ;O It's nowhere near as big as the London ones, but its still all good fun! Yush, yush I do. xD I have a Deviant art account as well! Would be awesome if I could meet you at Telford, though! Short cosplayers ftw! ;D

haha, noo. That's why i Mion more she's like the tomboy type hah.
You know, two wig caps can do the job. the black one that has two holes and is netted then the skin coloured wig cap, and pin them down. It's what i use to do when i had long hair, it worked really good (: Now i have short black hair so i'm alright with just one wig cap hah. Ah yeah that can be a pain because males are a lot taller, and flat chested haha. Although i have a really good binder i got off a website my friend showed me can be fitted to size. Although it's not good if you have a large chest D: But thats fine for me as i dont hah. And no i have never been to Telford before. I wasnt going to go until my friend said hey want to go together haha. I wouldnt think it'd be as big as London haha! It's only one day right? because that's alright, it'll only be like a 2 hour journey ish hah. My deviantART Page Cosplay Island Page ;D
Oh god that'd be so cool! :3

Oooh! That might work! I have the one with two holes but lack a skin coloured one, sadly! sad
Ahhh! No go for me, even bindings can not hide these pair of oversized mangos. And it would really -really- hurt to have them bound against me! >.<
Watched you on DA and I can not never figure out how to add people on CosplayIsland! x-x
Ravi-saw-us2011 is my DA and iBleeder is my CosplayIsland name!
Ah. It's a little over an hour for me to get there for us. Our travel has been hectic! First a friend was supposed to drive us, but he bailed to get some "fun" from a "female friend" on that day. Then we paniced due to the train times and now...A friend of a friend is going to take us with him! xD
Looking at your piccies! A pretty lass aren't you? biggrin I'm jealous! x)
London...Last time we drived there it took us over 5 hours. xD So from then on, we chose to take train down there. x-x

I'm going as a Little Sister from Bioshock. Midlands Expo is easily my favourite out of the three, so I'm hoping this time will be no different. Well, Little Sister is the plan anyway. The actual costume is near enough finished, but I've been kinda lazy with the ADAM syringe haha. I've got all the pieces but haven't bothered to put it together yet. I should probably get onto that as soon as possible XD

I think if I don't get my syringe done, I'll probably rewear my S.T.A.R.S. Jill Valentine from Resident Evil. My Chris Redfield is re-wearing his S.T.A.R.S. cosplay so at least I'll still have fun if I don't get Little Sister finished.

Awesome sauce. smile
