I have a question, is it weird/gross to wear a cosplay all the days you go to ACen? If you go all 3 days and bring only your cosplay and maybe a paor of extra clothes to change out of is it okay? I mean, what if you really like the cosplay and enjoyed the attention you got the day before? Not eveybody goes all 3 days, I only went one day last year. I probably sound like an idiot asking this, but I was wondering, because we can wear hoodies for days before washing them, so would it be the same for cosplay? I mean they're still clothes, but...?

[magishine]

Sounds perfectly fine to me. I've seen some people have 3 cosplays for 3 days and I've seen some have 1 and wear it 3 days so you should be fine.

[OtakuChica]

Thank God! I didn't wanna be gross and/or weird. I might bring my Haruhi Suzumiya cosplay in case something happens, like if I fall in a puddle and a stain gets on my cosplay.

I'm worried that I will be one of the few Resident Evil cosplayers.

No way, there's always plenty. In fact, I'm sure there will be an RE Photoshoot to meet up with you. Power to Resident Evil! I love that series.

Oh yeah, and to Chica. If it is nasty, I do it anyway (I was Brak all three days this year!) I also wore it to C2E2 and going to wear it at Wizard World. If you think your costume "reeks" just spray some perfume or other nice smelling stuff on it and you. I do that with spray deodorant or cologne if I think I might, lol. Really, I don't think most people smell unless they intentionally don't bathe/shower.

Thanks! That'll probably be a good idea, since I was there only one day this year, i didn't really know. Silly me. *bricks self in head*

That is what I am hoping. Normally when I go to cons I don't socialize much but I intend on finding some crazy folks like myself. @-@

[magishine]

plenty of crazy folks here and even more at the con. So many in fact it's........crazy!! I know. I'll stop with the puns

[Ashori]

I finally decided on my official cosplay for next year!
Maya Kitajima from Glass Mask

I figure this way I don't have to mess with a wig - I grow out my hair more and I'll have the same length since I already have around the same shade. Also, it's a cosplay that is hardly, if ever, done, and I figure I rather be unique and stand out a bit. I still have a few kinks in the costume - mainly in obtaining the materials for the veil and getting the unseen purple rose that is essential to Maya's character - but I know I got plenty of time to figure it all out.

[cloudacmaster]

I have a lot of things I want to do after my cosplays were so well received this year.

The problems is all of my friends want to do groups now, which I'm fine with. The problem is the series keeps on changing each week, so it makes it hard to start a costume.

However, I am on 80% sure on one cosplay I want to do. Which is Dark Sailor Mercury from PGSM.

Haha, this reminds me of the military. Rarely are uniforms washed. Because you wear them only to work and your suppose to take them off as soon as you get home. Undershirts and shorts worn under the uniform are meant to be changed daily after a shower but the actually uniform is not.

Heck even in daily life most guys wear the same shirt or jeans more than once with out washing them. xD

Lol, some really good animes are cooming out recently and its all screwing up my cosplay list because there are so many good series I want to cosplay. I think i will stick with Roger Smith and Amaimon. I might add a 3rd but still not sure.... tho after watching the new Thundercats I am thinkin Tygra. xD

I try not to make sense. More fun that way

[Wergulz]

If things go the way I want them to, I'll be doing: Altair from Assassin's Creed (again ), Malik from the same series, and Curse-Marked Hidan once more. I did Hidan two years ago; kinda excited to re-use it again

I'd love to see that, I hardly ever see curse-marked Hidan, I only saw one this year, but she didn't have his scythe, so it was kinda disappointing, but the cosplay was amazing!

[Wergulz]

Hehe ^^
I have a scythe (full size, too ^^). Hopefully they'll let me carry it. Back when I first did the costume, it wasn't an issue, but with changing rules...Hard to say lol

[Inkwell09]

I'm attempting 3 cosplays this year, and one of them is for sure...the other two are if I have time to finish them.
Since we've got almost the entire Noah Clan from DGM (minus Skyn [spelling?] and Lulubelle), I'm going to be Tyki Mikk (with 4 Teez). The other potential cosplays are Eridan Ampora from Homestuck and a special version of Germany from Hetalia.

(but if everything falls through...i'll bring back the Ryuk I did in 2010.)

Eridaaaaan! He's so snazzy with that scarf and the glasses. Nice choice. And although I already said this, I can't wait to hear more about/see your Germany.

[Sarah-Senpai]

I'm planning on going as Okabe from Steins;Gate along with Hibiki from All Around Type Moon. (I'm trying to get my friend to go as Chika for me so we can be the most obscure pair of T-M characters ever)

You'll have to speak the password to be Okabe

Well, since I've revealed my Germany idea in two other locations on the forum, I'll reveal a little about it here...I'm going to be "Germany in pajamas." But that's all I will say for now

And Eridan is definitely my favorite. (so cute )I can't wait to be him. I'm going to "serenade" the Feferi's at the photoshoot/meetup...I'm not sure what I'm going to sing though. I'm thinking "Baby Come Back" right now...

Can it come apart into two pieces? If yes, then you'll be able to. I'd love to see your Hidan scythe. But I beg you do not steal my blood and kill me!

[excel excel]

Doing a repeat of my MST3k cosplay. This time I will have Crow T. Robot. My friend will dress up as Mike Nelson with Tom Servo.

[Byakuya Kun]

A new update. I am going as Germany from APH as well. The only reason for this change is because I am going to a convention in St Charles this November and my Resident Evil outfits wont be completed on time.

[OtakuChica]

I'm also considering cosplaying Tsukasa Hiiragi in her cheerleader uniform from Lucky Star. But at this point, it most likely will not happen.

[SupremeKai]

Currently working on a steam punk sniper for Halloween might bring it with me just for fun, also thinking of law from One Piece but that's still up in the air. Need to sit down and get this straightened out so I can get off my but at start

My friend just recently got me into one piece, so I don't know a whole lot yet but I know enough to get by. ^^;

The rifle I would go with for that is very easy for me to pick, Doc Brown's Rifle from Back to the Future 3.
