I'm going to the next convention cosplaying as Cloud Strife from Kingdom Hearts Hey! I've got a Kingdom Hearts question, too. How would you make the keyblade "three wishes", I'm making that for a Princess Jasmine costume. I'll try to find a picture for you, but if anyone here knows what it looks li...

Well, my friend went to Otakon 2003 and loved every minute of it. I have never been to a big convention like that and would probably want to get their despite them getting L'Arc~en~ciel to perform...although that would be great!

I wanted to go this year, because a band I really love, L'arc en Ciel, performed there, but unfortunately I couldn't. I'm not sure if I'll be going this coming year, but I might. It's a bit up in the air right now, depending on how many cons I can fit in this year. L'Arc~en~ciel...I know...that was...

You're welcome. ^_^ It's always good to start early and work along steadily rather than trying to rush everything at the end. Stressing out about costumes just takes all the fun out of cosplay. I think you mentioned once where you lived...midwest, was it? ^^;;; We'd like to go to Anime Central one ...

You're welcome. ^_^ And that other thread about the collar might help you out too. I seem to remember there might've been some schoolgirl pattern through Simplicity, but maybe it was discontinued or something. Well, for the school girl collars, I had some help from my grandmother on the first one t...

And me.

Thank you, guys! These directions/advice should definetely help with my Azumanga Daioh costumes.

This will be a cool prop! Good luck with it. :D Thanks for all of the great advice! I can't wait to get started on the prop! My sister is very excited about trying to cosplay as Kotoko. We even came up with part of a song/skit for a cosplay...if her friend agrees to cosplay as Sumomo again. The con...

Sometimes Kotoko cosplayers carry a pen...I've actually seen it in my "Chobits" playing cards (I don't remember whether or not it was in the anime or the manga.) It seems to be used as a prop to make the persocoms seem smaller...anyway, any thoughts on it's construction? I have a picture of a cospla...

Good luck with the costume. I've been wanting to make a Sango costume for awhile and now I have always pondered about what to use for a basic form for the mask...and what's been suggested is the perfect solution!

Well...since I haven't been to that many conventions (there aren't that many close to where I live) my group hasn't gotten a chance to do a skit in the cosplay yet. When we watched it at Anime Next 2003, we thought that a lot of them pretty much looked the same...there were quite a few funny ones, b...

wasn't that great though.

I was there. My friend and I had a great time!

What would you make a 'kenai' out of? This is for a possible costume for my sister. The character is 'Misao' from "Rurouni Kenshin." Here's a link to the picture...The things in her hands...Any suggestions?

How would I make Sesshomaru's (Inu Yasha) spiky armor that goes over his shoulder? I don't want to use metal because a) it's heavy and 2)my only friend who welds won't do it for me :cry: . I've got a vague idea on how to make his fluffy, and that leaves his armor... Sorry I don't have a picture tha...

That's my second choice, but my first choice is Miroku and Sango.
