this actually crossed my mind too, i was thinking bout goin as Katsushiro, but hm its gonna take quite a bit of time to do the costume.... I betta start doin some research on mats early on
Yes! Another person who like samurai 7!!
have you relized how few people like it? Goodness, it's so great too!
Katsushiro is kool.. i like Kyuzo better tho.. lol.. i will be a female versoin of him.. luckily he doesn't really talk.. lol
(i've already started scteching out how i am going to make his costume... :D )
I was also thinking of doing one of the ladies from Samurai 7 also.
I would do Heihachi, but I know that I can't pull off a guy very well;).
Well... i will have some eer... issues posing as a guy too... but i have gotten some great advise on how to eerm... make it not so ...obvious that i'm a chick...
I have... But the advice I got doesn't really help with being a little on the top heavy side.
There's the sport's bra way (minimizes but doesn't get rid of it entirely). I think someone suggested bondage tape. I have a sneaking suspicion that it would have the similar effect as a sports bra... and would be really sweaty since it's mostly made out of PVC.
But maybe I'll give crossplaying Heihachi a try.:)
I hope that you can try either of those out and see how it works for you.
so i have like a between a C and a D and what you do is you get a sports bra that's 1 or two sizes to small.. (small enough that it's confining, but large enough that you can breath) then after you got that you ~also~ bind yourself... you just use packing tape.. (like that clear stuff... or you can use bandage cloth... ) it all works the same.. i did that and i was down to a very small A... so it does work... with my outfit over all that you couldn't tell i had a chest.... Lol.. it's like on Swim team.. when we put on our suits, there's like nothing there.. lol
Awesome. Thanks. I didn't think about wrapping myself after putting on the sports bra. I'm at D so I definitely feel the same pain. I'll remember that.
Now, if only to find a pic or pattern to make the costume (I don't know how to make patterns).:(
Well... last con, i cosplayed as Rosette From Chrno Crusade... what i did for a pattern was find a costume with a similar shape and use that pattern, then i just modified it a bit...
if you buy the DVD's they come with these lil booklets on the inside.. they have really good sketches of all the parts of each character's outfits.. that's what i'm using for Kyuzo.. and a few drawings i made off of the movie itself..
Hmm... Good point. Otherwise I think I would be SOL. Maybe I should have taken those fashion design classes when I was at art achool.;)
I'll have to take another look at Heihachi's outfit. I think we might actually have the sketch in one of the Samurai 7 DVDs that we own.
Haha... i have an uncle who sews so he kinda showed me the ropes.. a lot of it was just "winging" it though... lol....
yeah.. i'm not sure what DVD had Heihachi in it.. it's not 4 or six (i have those with me right now... lol.. i'm thinking it was # 5... that;s where Kyuzo's was too...
Nuts, we're only at 3. Well, I'm sure I'll see it (hopefully) with enough time to figure it out. Thanks for the help. This is my first time with planning and doing cosplay.
oo really? This is only my second..
Samurai 7 is starting to get popular though.. so maby in the next year.. lol.. more people will show..
sooo yeah.. n e one else?????
sorry passin on the Samurai 7 cosplay... but ill be actually goin as Byakuya from bleach and Harima from School Rumble
aaaaaaww :(
we need more people
I'll see if Gorobei is doable for me but I can't make any promises right now. Btw this is for the non-crossdressing version. ^^;;
YAY!!!! ANOTHER PERSON!!
<333333333
hey ^^ i was gonna do kyuzo as well..and the question on everyones minds is...how should i go about making the sword....never made a weapon befor..anyone got any ideas
i was actually wondering the same thing.. i was thinking get it all nicelooking, but with wood then put a silver kinda finish or something to make it look metal 0.o
okay.. so it's just kyuzo for me.... i'm doing a my-hime cosplay too... so.. just the one Samurai 7.. ^_^

Ok... I am very interested in this gathering, both to shoot it and to be in it *giggles. If I cosplay I will be a suporting character... don't know who yet, but I was considering crossplaying as the clone prince *giggles... I think as the new year comes around that there will be more interest in this gathering, so check on it once or twice a month.
As a suggestion... when you set the time for this gathering, please do not do it the day of the cosplay/masq. I may have a few more peeps for it, but we are all tied up in a big project and the project has it's gathering the same day as the cosplay masq because of makeup and costume issues. It will be way to hard for some of us to change costumes.
Just a suggestion.
Till next time....

thank you very much, this will probably end up being on a saturday ^_^
Hmmm, you pulled me in. I'm still debating on a third cosplay, and I never thought of considering Samurai7 before, even though I love it bunches. If I settle on it, I'd either want to do Yukino or Kiara.

Yay! I'll add u as a maybe ^_^
We really need a kirara XD I wanted to do her.. but alas.. too many cosplays and not a good enough tummy >.>

Well, I will definately be doing Yukino. I have to look at Kiara's outfit in more detail though. It might be a little more tricky to pull off since I'm not the most experienced sewer. But still leave me as a maybe for Kiara.
awesomeness ^_^
I'm planning on making Kirara's outfit (most likely for SacAnime and/or the San Francisco Cherry Blossom Festival if I can to go both or either). If I end up doing this costume, I'll bring it to Fanime.
So please count me in for Kirara. :) :) :)
PS: Will any of you be at SacAnime or the SF Cherry Blossom Festival?
oh awesome!! thanks!!

Hey, do we know what day we're going to be gathering yet? I'm just trying to plan for other days so friends can find me in the right cosplays on certain days. ^^;
And goodness, I hope we get more to join in. It'd be such a blast.
I wanted to say that you can add at least one if not two rice people to the list :P
The two who are going to cosplay them are not on any of the forums, and I will be making the costumes.
This is a "Supporting Cast" cosplay year! Rice pleebs, Soul Society pleebs, Legend of Zelda pleebs.... Lets hear it for the supporting cast *YEAH!!!
*LOL
BSaphire
and yes, i am bumping this one too
and yes, i am bumping this one too
Ah...I feel like a broken record. ^^;;;;;; Have we decided on a gathering time yet? We should get one together cause I'm trying to figure what cosplay I should wear when.
mm i have no preferance, but i have the EGL picnic and the BLEACH gathering to work around, any ideas?
When's the picnic and BLEACH gathering?
bleach - sat noon, EGL- TBD
maybe Friday?
so, i am an aweful person and MIGHT have to drop this cosplay for budget reasons :(
i should know by next week, sorry >.<
Welll...it happens. If worse comes to worse, we can save it for next year. :3 As it is, it seems like the group's pretty small. But...we'll see. Either way, I'm still doing Yukino so if you see me, say hello! ^_^
ok, yeah, i can't make it >.<
sorry guys, maybe next year
