Weight: 144
Height: 6'1
Pictures of you: don't really have 1 (I am willing 2 put 1 up if it is really needed)
Willing to do: wigs, make-up, etc.
Not willing to do: hair cut, hair dye, cross play
Animes/Mangas/books/shows/movies etc. you like: Bleach, Hunter x Hunter, Yugioh (all of them), Soul Eater, Pokemon, Shaman King

I am currently thinking of doing a Junk Warrior (yugioh 5ds) cosplay, Lee Pai Long(Shaman King) cosplay, or Ashura (Soul Eater) cosplay. But I am a person who has trouble deciding and I know if I don't start them soon I won't finish them in time or I might end up changing my mind.

Alright, by looking at the three characters you want to do I get the impression that you're a pretty intense cosplayer; which is good! biggrin So now I have one question. How much are willing to spend or do? By looking at Junk Warrior, I could see that one being pretty hard to put together. That's an intense costume. But if you have the materials to make that armor, then go for it. whee

Personally I like Ashura. He looks pretty wicked, which is something I like. I would suggest him only because that's a personal taste. It would be easier if you posted a picture so I could make a better choice, but if you don't want to then it's cool. Lee Pailong would be a good choice though too. He seems pretty simple yet you could do some pretty neat stuff with him. Overall, I would say go with Ashura.

Well I sorta know how 2 make the armor (only trouble is starting) I can always get help with the Junk Warrior Cosplay, the only problem I have with it is that I am afraid that I might hit some 1 by accident with the things on his shoulders. As 4 Ashura I want 2 cosplay him but I know I will require make-up since his skin is pale and my skin is brown. Lee-Pai Long well his skin is purple and Ima need 2 see if 1 of my friends can help me make the top part of his shirt.

Well I like all of the characters I chose but none of my friends watch Soul Eater and 1 of my friends said he would make a cosplay depending if I choose Junk Warrior or Lee Pai Long. But he said if I choose neither he will work on his own cosplay so either 1 is ok. I am willing 2 spend up 2 about 50$ maybe even more if I really have 2. (I have 2 pay 4 my Pre-Registration 4 AX while it is 65$ if I still have more money by then I guess I can spend a little more). I might post a pic of myself later

That's cool. It's whatever you want. razz

However, since you think you may have trouble getting your skin a different color then I would maybe try to do Junk Warrior instead. Usually if you have that much armor people know to get out of the way. And I think the people who do usually cosplay like that wear normal clothes to the convention and then change into the armor there for a while.

ugh, it is so difficult 2 choose 1 I like all three. I think I can just body paint 4 Lee-Pai-Long 2 make my skin purple or I can just cosplay him when he was alive his skin was kinda tan. Ashura making the cosplay is easy but the make-up and paint is going 2 be hard since I have no experience with it and none of friends wear make-up. I guess if I do end up going as Junk Warrior I can make my friends help me take it 2 the con and stuff.

Well I hope I finish it in 2 months (my friend is making me go 2 Fanime with him) but ehh I don't care much if I don't finish it by then I just care about Ax2010.

Well we do have a Make-Up Help page and I am a make-up artist. If you need help I can provide some tips or advice. I've gotten a better camera than the one on my laptop so things should be good now. If all else fails, flip a coin. wink

LOL well my friend helped me make the decision 2day, while we were playing Para Para at Little Tokyo he just told me "y not make all 3?" so I might try and make all 3. I know that at least I will be done with 1 (Lee Pai Long) because he is going 2 help me with it.
