Now, we had a thread a while back on Sonic-related cosplay here in the main forum. While net-browsing this evening I came across this rather awesome and unusual cosplay. Bonus points to anyone not knowing me real well and figuring out which character and which TV show that lady is playing.

And, besides being truly impressed that anyone thought of that, I wondered whether folk here have tales of non-Sonic cosplays? In fact, I'm pretty sure they must do.

I have a vaguely Ace-like outfit, but it's not up to the big leagues. I'm in the process of creating a Mina Harker / Murray one, but as was pointed out to me, I am extremely lacking in red scarves.

So, step forward and tell us what cosplays you have done before! Or what cosplays you aspire to. Or perhaps what cosplays you would do if you had the self-confidence - I have to admit, it's not something I manage to pull off very often...

Heehee. I can see why the bonus points for recognising that pic are only for those who don't know you. wink

As for cosplay, well, I haven't strayed too far into that realm for a while, although I do own a rather enormous (fake!) fox tail which cost me a ludicrous amount of money. eek

Well, I know some of you saw me as Rorscach.

We did indeed smile For those of the audience who (like me, originally) have no idea who that is, could you elaborate? Also describe how you went about creating your outfit?

You too, Vulpinity. If you've not cosplayed in a while, let us know what your cosplay was way back when smile

I don't have the dedication or self-confidence really to pull stuff off. I have a pair of drainpipe black (ish) jeans, a white t-shirt, some Doc Martens and a black jacket on which I put a random selection of badges. This stands in as an Ace costume, provided no one's being too picky.

The Mina one consists of a long black skirt, a black, vaguely Victorian type blouse and a Victorian-style short jacket. As I say, it lacks a scarf. Although I do have genuine Whitby jet to go with it, when I recover the bracelet from my mother and then borrow a pair of her earrings...

Well actually, a convention I'm attending this August, will be the first that I will cosplay a Sonic character...

It's still a work in progress...So suggestions are welcome at the moment! : P

As far as past ones go, I've constantly been breaking out my Organization member cloak for events, to stroll around as Axel. I'll probably be bringing him out again in August, if only for a dating game parody.

And then digging back any further, the character who can claim my first cosplay is... *prepares to dodge angry fanboys*..

The one holding the big sword. razz


As far as my dream cosplays go...I'd absolutely LOVE to get together a costume based on a Digimon, like Omnimon or WarGreymon. Also, an anthro Groudon would be pretty dang sweet, too. I have ideas, indeed...It's just a matter of how to go about actually MAKING them...

That's looking like a really good Sonic, there.

But yeah- Rorscach was essentailly my usual jacket, some random gloves, a crude scarf, a hat I've had for ages and... the mask. The mask itself took a fair few hours, and was made using fabric dye.
Samwise has a photo somewhere.

Who's gonna rock the place...


Haven't been able to cosplay for awhile due to stuff going on, but this Halloween to make up for it I'm dressing up with Temari. I'll put up pictures of it when it's all finished and such.

Still working on my Blaze costume, but that won't be finished until ACEN '08 comes up next year.
