Who should I cosplay that has an easy costume?

First off,

what anime do you like?

Lothlin - February 23, 2007 03:08 AM (GMT)
Secondly, thrift store-able cosplay, stuff that needs sewn, or do you care? ^^

Thirdly, what do you look like?

mikalaya - February 23, 2007 03:53 AM (GMT)
Well I know she looks like rukia.

Kairi: Rukia is one (a kimono takes about an hour to make)
Karin Maaka is two, (yes I looked her up, and you look like her)

Plus joanns is having a sale on thare butterick patterns so you can make them and stuff.

Wigs will add some money to that costume, depending on if you get one and how good of one you get. Are you willing to spend the money on one, btw?

i love karin! i'll be looking out for ur picture if you do her

mikalaya - February 23, 2007 05:34 AM (GMT)
I just bought a wig yesterday for my olette costume, $15.00 and it's already styled.

*woot woot for me*
:lol: :lol:

Lothlin - February 23, 2007 05:40 AM (GMT)
Wow, good deal for a wig; though, how high of quality was it? (Mind, if you can get a cheaper wig to look good, I say go for it! Saves money and all XD))

kalajessta - February 23, 2007 05:50 AM (GMT)
Sometimes the cheaper wigs only last one or two cons, if that due to the poor quality. I sometimes go for wigs between the $20-50 dollar range because of that fact. Though, saving money on wigs help. I tend to use my natural hair when I can for costumes. Speaking of which, I have to redye mine for AP.

Lothlin - February 23, 2007 06:04 AM (GMT)
Well, the last wig I bought I think came to about fourty or fourty five, but it's a pretty versatile wig (Black alicia s. from Cosworx), and I may end up picking some cosplay so I can just use that.

...Though, when I do Harle (for sugoi next year, not AP XD) I just get to make the funky jester hat. No wig needed!

I made an Ishida Costume for about 95.00, actaully more like less then $50, if you don't count the really overbaord expensive Cross I bought that wasn't JUST for that costume. ($20 on pants and "shirt" (10 each) and about 15 in fabric markers, and about 5 for the glove.)

If you can pull Rukia, you can pull Ishida unless your have overbaord breasts...........

mikalaya - February 24, 2007 03:07 AM (GMT)
(haha overboard breast)

My wig is great!! I wish I had a picture... :( ..You guys can see it at the con though ;) . And I bought it at your everyday hair supply store in columbus not online (thank god) I can't get my debit card yet cause my mom is screwing up all the accounts and I don't know crap about that sorta thing!!!!

Puwey!
I can't wait to get my aerith wig...or maybe just style my own hair? IDK it's hard!!! :(

Lothlin - February 24, 2007 03:28 AM (GMT)
Well, it's probably a good wig if you got it at a hair supply store.

Honestly, for Aeris, I'd just get the wig. It would suck to try to fight your own hair into acting like hers does.

mikalaya - February 24, 2007 07:55 AM (GMT)
Yeah, and if it rains... <_< ..i'd be so pissed.

Tsugaru - February 24, 2007 01:02 PM (GMT)
I was thinking maybe Tatsuki from Bleach, Sumire from Sakura Taisen...

Natsuki from Initial D, ( http://animevisions.net/Pictures/initiald/Initial17.jpg , she also has a simple sailor school uniform if you wanna see pictures. )

Yukino from Kare Kano ( http://animevisions.net/Pictures/kare/Kare02.jpg middle, winter uniform, http://animevisions.net/Pictures/kare/Kare17.jpg left, summer uniform. )

All I have for now. =D

...how did you know? I LOVE KARIN! If I could pull her off it'd be amazing!!! The hard part would be the wig, i'm a perfectionist so it'd have to be perfect...

mikalaya - February 27, 2007 06:19 AM (GMT)
I know what you mean, I'm still bitchin about my aerith wig (yeah the one i don't have) i hope to find one soon...my bf is getting a riku wig *hit's BF* he didn't even ask me first.

Kairi029 - February 27, 2007 02:32 PM (GMT)
Yeah so nevermind, I can only do Kairi now since I only have two weeks to make the damn costume. AHHH!!!


Tsugaru - February 27, 2007 09:26 PM (GMT)
2 weeks isn't bad time at all to make something found item. =D
