I hate to ask the same question as everyone else, but...

I'm trying to decide who to be for Halloween, but my knowledge of different series is limited, and I'm very indecisive. I need suggestions. I'm open to video game characters, anime characters... just about anything.

Notes/Limitations:
-My eyes are actually a weird hazel green color, but the lighting made them... purple?
-I'm 5' 11", although the camera angle, lighting and the low ceiling make me look huge. That and my baggy clothing.
-My hair is one of the the biggest problems, as it doesn't really lend itself to any character I'm familiar with. I'm not adverse to wearing a wig if I can get one quickly and fairly cheaply.
-I'd prefer a costume that's not too difficult to make, due to low funds and the fact that there's only 2 weeks until Halloween, but don't limit your ideas because of this.
-I will not go out without a shirt.

So, any ideas?

Hmmm...sounds hard...But how do you look in a suit?

Personally, I think a suit makes me look horrible... but I've lost some weight since I last put one on, which was around 3 years ago... maybe it won't be so bad. Dunno.

Not that I know of...
Never thought of myself as a Vincent... that might be cool. No idea where I'd get all the parts I'd need for the costume, though.

I stared at the left half of the picture in confusion for a while... then I saw the rest of the post. ^_^;;
I don't know Tsubasa Chronicles that well... I'll have to watch a little of it.

Right now I'm leaning towards Kurogane, but I'd like to see what others come up with, too. Any other suggestions?

As awesome as cosplaying Snake would be... I'd feel so awkward dressing up as him. I'd also have to find a mullet wig... which... might not be as hard as I think it would be... :D
