Alas, another falls victim to lack of ideas! :O

Post by Lilias » Thu Oct 25, 2007 10:54 pm

I absolutely love this thread D: Everyone is just so darn helpful-- so I figured, after having previously exhausted my own resources, to cave and ask the opinion of others. :3 SO! Heres the deal:

"My s/o and I are planning on attending Sakuracon 08' and we'd love to cosplay characters from the same series/game/manga. They do NOT have to have a romantic relationship-- but thats always a plus >w<~ We'd just like to be from the same game, so we can take pictures together and just be all around neat :3"


My stats:
5'3" or so
Brown shortish hair
Green Eyes
Not skinny
Open to wigs, but not really dyeing/cutting of hair.

Webcam reference picture (taken tonight): http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v230/ ... ture39.jpg


Part two: the couple

Significant other's stats:
6' adding 1-2"
Black military style haircut/length (buzzed/crewcut), but may be longer at time of convention.
Hazel eyes
Average male build
Not sure about wigs, but likely talked into it :3...<3

Please give me some advice~ I'd really appreciate it!

EDIT:

I found the perfect costume you can do. It can be easily made and it should be cheap.

Image

Sayoran from Tsubasa Chronicles. He is the one wearing the green cape. If you can get a pair of beige kahki's, a black turtle net sweater and cut the sleeves off, then you can get a pack of buttons, and use the material from the sweater for the 2 black pieces hanging from his shirt, and you can go to any costume store to get a green cloak. Go to walmart and pick up a pair of gloves for like $5 to $8 and BAM a costume for less than $50.

For the girl you can be Sakura, as you can see her outfit looks fairly easy to recreate.

Or Karman Cole below this post... He knows the guy above... Who happens to be a heir to some type of family business.

^ Cole usually wears a suit red or blue. mostly.

For your s/o Robert Garcia has a few other outfits...

And Yuri Sakazaki for you...

Image

This outfit is from the Maximum Impact King of Fighters game.

Image

Or King from Art of Fighting series.

She's a girl working as a waiter... yup fought as a dude. so she cut her hair you wigs right? I think this would definitely be great.

Or the girl that replaced King in Kof2002

May-Lee...
