Title: Your Dream Costume?
Post by: Sucrose on July 27, 2006, 01:09:42 PM
(Stop me if you've heard this thread before...no, but I didn't see one like it within a few pages' search, and if it's farther back than that I figure it needs a new thread anyhow. *laugh* We can leave this one to rot if that's not the case, though.)

Soooo, fellow cosplayers, what's your dream costume, the one costume you can think of that's maybe a little (or a lot) beyond your reach in terms of time, talent, or cost? What's the one costume you would make if you had an unlimited amount of all three?

One of mine would be Hsein-Ko/Lei-Lei (http://img501.imageshack.us/img501/5407/leileids7.jpg) from Darkstalkers (though I knew her first from Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo). It's not that she's my favorite character or from my favorite series, it's just that she's got a really awesome character design! Blue skin, bright colors, GIANT AWESOME CLAWS, a hat with a little deedly-bob at the top...yeah, she's got it all. I imagine I'd have a lot of fun wearing such a costume, and I'll be proud of myself if I ever manage to make it (and well).[/url]

Hmmm.....well I guess if I had a dream cosplay ultimately it would be Kaito Kid. I really like large capes, and I think the entire outfit is really great.


..........and the monicle would make me feel like the Monopoly guy.

One of the dolls from Rozen maiden. And that's jsut from the top of my head. Probably some really complicated EGL outfit.

Or that one evil Sasuke from episode 165 I think?

I think that's it for now XD

7B (Seven Bridge) Nakayama Kuiin or Kirisaki Jyaku from Mr. Fullswing for the personalities and the fact they're the same baseball team members yet they have different outfits. :D

Complicated-wise, I'd love to try Rule or Rose secret outfit the octopus :D

Sugino or Haruka from Tactics: huge wingspans that go back and up.  I'd love to have an outfit with great big feathered wings that flex.  I saw the Wings demonstration on Stage Zero and was very impressed and awed by the workmanship (sorry, I forget the name of the young lady giving the demonstration - I was rather awestruck - she did the Howl outfit too - hope she does the demonstration again next year  :D  ).  Someday I'll have my wings ...

I don't really have a dream character that I'd want to cosplay, really. My goal is doing a character SO ACCURATELY that people start to question reality.

MUCH unlike Fanime '06. :lol:

Mine...oh that's easy.

My dream cosplay would be the final form of Kazuma's Shell Bullet Alter or Ryuho's Zetsui Alter from s-cry-ed.

Hard as hell to make, especially if you wan't accuracy. I also am not in the best shape, so I'd need to do a lot of working out.

Isabella "Ivy" Valentine from Soul Calibur 2 or 3. She's such a fantastic character, but I really want to do her "skimpier" outfits...and I really don't have the boobs to pull it off. *sigh* Maybe once I figure that one out, you'll see me prancing around. ^^

Here is a cosplay (http://www.innovateinfinitely.com/animepage/2003/2003axpictures/2003ax24.jpg) many anime fans list as one of the top.

For me, Bowser just came up in my mind.  There are a few others which I can't think of at this late of hour (-,-)

*A successful Ranma Saotome. As in, if Ranma was alive (and white), I'd be him.
*I dunno. I'll have to cosplay more ^^;
