My husband 2D Mirage will be doing Oldseph, and I'm still deciding on either Lisa Lisa or Dio Brando.

oh man, I sure hope the gathering is finalized for Sunday, as there is stuff alrdy going on fo me Saturday. If it does get finalized for Sunday, i'ma bring PT3 Glitterfied Jotaro to this (yes you've read that right; my Jotato attire is heavily covered in glitter, as it's appropriate cuz all Joestars are fab AF!)

Post by: apples4ryuk on March 08, 2017, 01:48:27 PM
GLITTERFIED!? AWESOME!! Honestly I would like to have it on Saturday since it's usually the day with the most going on but I guess then yeah, Sunday would be good. I can have another poll on the Facebook event group if you'd like!

Post by: myassisblack on March 08, 2017, 02:25:31 PM
ehhhh, you could do that if you want & keeping pushing for Saturday. Not a big deal to me to have it either day; i was just expressing very mild interest in another gathering going on at the desired same time as this one.

Heyooo!! I'm so glad to see that there will be a JJBA gathering! I'll be going as Ultimate Kars (technically fem!Kars cuz I gotta cover my boobs lmao). If possible, and I hope this isn't imposing too much, might we be able to move the date to Sunday? I'd like to go to the LoL gathering on Saturday since I have a Kindred cosplay as well.
Thank youuuu!

So I got into all this craziness literally less than a week ago, and I'm already planning my first cosplay from it.

As long as this doesn't conflict with anything else (panels I'm giving, changing out of my rather difficult costume for the Final Fantasy gathering on Saturday morning), I should be there as Lisa Lisa. Probably doing her red zoot suit when she's in the gondolier disguise.

Saturday afternoon would be easier for me than Sunday, but I can probably work around it either way.

I'm for sure doing Lisa Lisa instead of Dio. Just thought I'd update. :)
