Druki Guccigirl247 Druki Guccigirl247 Druki My tips and advice, since I've been to Anime Expo and have observed Cosplay:FIRST OFF, if you cosplay really, really, really well of a popular character, or just cosplay someone popular in general, you will constantly be stopped and asked for a photo-opprotunity. The things about them, though, is that if your's is done well enough, more people will take advantage of this photo-op and join in while more are leaving. Overall, it can take minutes and you'll have to be in the same pose for that time. x.x SECOND, if your person is obscure, be prepared to explain who/what it's from and to talk about it if someone continues to ask about it. THIRD, don't be afraid that, if you choose a popular character, that it has to be in perfect detail. While they are quite often times nice to stare at and oggle and such, those are wide and few. However, if you do want to achieve perfection, strive for it AND PAY ATTENTION TO DETAIL! I, personally, recommend an easily recognizable Gaian avatar.
xDGo for it while at Otacon. You'll get a lot of stops and probably some comments from the admin as well. 3nodding
Okay...
so, Lazer or Vo?
Shoy ~ Yup.
Washingtonian I am.I'm going to suggest Lanzer. He makes it to all of them, I believe, while Vo has chosen to stay behind at some. Uta: This summer will be my fourth, with my fourth year semi-cosplaying Druki. It'll also be the third time I'll be able to chat with Ling and L0cke again. 3nodding And possibly third time I'll see a bunch of my friends there as well. I don't like the idea of cosplaying Gaian avatars... It just...bothers me for some reason... And Gaia is LAME and doesn't come to Canadian cons. Even though AN is teh sex. I think friends and I are making plans to go to Otakon...if that's the one I'm thinking of... Depends what we end up getting planned. Hirun: Scott was at AN last year, 'cause he lives here in Toronto...except I don't actually live quite in Toronto... I'M GOING TO SLEEP NOW GOOD NIGHT.

Is Gaia really lame, or is someone just being bitter and equally as lame as the accused because they live in Canada, eh? Good night.

Even if I do cosplay Lanzer...
the outfit would be somewhat simple.
All I would need to make is the G-Pin.

All I would need to make is the G-Pin. What I've seen done among many Gaians, namely the moderators and admin who plan ahead of time, is that they make a name-tag clip-on or safety pin attachment in addition to the convention badge they get. If you're worried no one will recognize your cosplay, carry around a sign that says you're cosplaying Lanzer.

=_= Don't cosplay Lanzer. It would be a really lame and simple cosplay unless you're pressed for time and the con is the next day and you're still without a costume. Do something fun and exciting, and be creative.
