Just curious (especially since the Dark Knight came out this previous summer) if anyone was planning on doing a Batman cosplay?
I'm making a Poison Ivy for Halloween and was mulling over whether or not to try our my first Con Cosplay at Fanime (hmmm).
I'm pretty sure that my friends and I will be dressing as our Batman group again for San Diego's Comic Con (*if* they go, I got my reg), but I kinda want Fanime to be my first con-cosplay, I think :)
Also!
If you are doing a character, which incarnation are you trying for? ("Batman: The Animated Series", the Tim Burton series, The Dark Knight, a specific comic arc, or in some cases instances like "Nurse Joker" or if you're going as their "alter ego" :) )
Running "Roll Call"(#) multiple people as same character
- Batgirl - (1) Reg. Batgirl
(2) New Batgirl (sewn mouth) - Joker - Nurse Joker
- Poison Ivy - (1) "B:tAS"/Dark Knight cross
(2) - Robin
I'll be nurse Joker.
I will try to finish my poison Ivy for Fanime
hahah the bustier peice is the hardest to figure out
There was a Harley Quinn at Fanime '08 she might come back this year.

Didn't get a bad color out of it. But it does look loads better when actually worn. I'm still waiting for my tights but got my makeup/eyelashes figured out today. I've had the red hair since I was 15, so we're good there XD lol
Very nice chronicling job!

lol Thanks!
I actually almost forgot four times times I wanted to take pictures (before dying, right when I started dying everything, when I started taping up the shoes, and painting the shoes XD)
But yeah, I don't have a kind of funny memory, so I like to have references to compare steps along in different projects (which is why I need another external hard drive since I can't save over my image files when I work on them T_T;;;;;;)
I'm a pack-rat of nearly useless information, if you will. XD
Although sadly, This was one of our bought costumes(In the process of 6 other cosplays right now so I bought my halloween) I have a Batgirl and my sister Robin xD
meh, I don't think there's anything wrong with a bought costume (unless you're TRYING to pass it off like you made it).
I mean, I dyed mine and I'll be sewing on some leaves here and there, but it's not like I made my corset or the like :P More than welcome! XD (not to mention I really like Batgirl).
I'm going to edit the first post now to keep a running "roll call" :)
Oh!
If we get a Harley and a Catwoman we can do a "Gotham Girls" photo or something lol
man I've been putting this off but I'd love to do it this year ^_^ put me down for the new Batgirl (mouth sewn shut) or if I see that the other costumes I have lined up are weighing me down a little too much then Batgirl from Thrillkiller
