Hello!

I would desperately like pictures of a friend of mine who was cosplaying as one of the Belles for the Black and White Ball. If anyone has pictures of the Beauty and the Beast dance in particular I would be forever grateful. The Belle I speak of is the one with the really heavily gathered skirt and voluminous petticoats.

Thank you!

This sounds so brilliantly awesome. I cans joins please? I'm not sure what I'm cosplaying as on Saturday yet, but all my potential cosplays are female. Thank you whoever thought of and organized this!

Yes! Hetalia gathering!

We have for sure: Taiwan, Hungary, Austria
Possible additions of: China, Korea, Seychelles

Question for people doing Hungary: Dress or military uniform? If the former, color of dress?

Looking forward to seeing you all!

Edited for spelling. ><

Will do! Hope to see you Friday and/or Saturday then!

Yay! More Nanoha cosplayers! I can't wait to see your Chrono cosplays. ^^

We (speaking for me and my friend) would love to meet more Nanoha cosplayers! My friend and I are planning on showing up on Friday with our Nanoha cosplays and I will probably wear mine again for the duration of Saturday. If anyone is going to take dance lessons on Saturday, you'll probably find me there sporadic times throughout the day. ^_~

My hair is dark brown/black, so I don't know of any dye that will get my hair that color without bleaching it first, which is something I do not want to do.

Can anyone tell me if there are any good spray-on hair dyes? Like the cheap Halloween hair color stuff? I have little faith in those ever since I tried to spray my hair Kenshin Red a few years ago, but if anyone knows of any that might work at least ok....

Hmm...didn't realize the ribbon idea would be so bad. I thought since her hair was in braided pigtails, I could just wrap the strands or something...ah well. I suppose I'll just have to rely on my clothes and prop. Thank you for your input!

I was just wondering what part of a cosplay do people focus most on or have to get right to feel they've portrayed a character adequately. The clothes? The hair? Props? I ask because the character I'm cosplaying has red hair (kinda faded, but NOT pink ><) and I was going to dye a white wig I ordered but then stupid things happened and I never got my order. I guess what I'm really asking of your opinion is how disappointing would it be to not get a character's hair color right? Or if it was symbolically represented? I was thinking of weaving a mess of red/pink ribbons in my hair.

*sigh* I'm sorry if this sounds like a nit-picky post, but personally, I have high expectations when costuming and hair is a big detail with me. I was, and still am, quite frustrated that the wig/mail incident occurred and wonder if anyone else has these detail issues. Advice on getting over it would help (and I am curious as to what people think concerning the initial question).

Hello! I'd like to inform you, if you are still interested, that my friend and I will be Fate and Vita respectively for Fanime this year. It's kind of depressing that no one seems to know this series...or just aren't interested. T_T

Ah, well, stay strong! Have hope. ^^
