I think you might have more luck if you thought about and listed characters you like or feel connected with. That's where I started in cosplay.

well last year i did roy mustang and i really like that it was a blast, this year i was thinking of doing lavi from D gray other then that I've been watching tons of anime, and im still new to the cosplaying world.. may i ask who you will be going as next year?

For whatever reason I can not access your link so I'll let you know what I've got going on.

I'm cosplaying Lenalee and bringing an Alan Walker from D-Gray Man so we would definitely welcome a Lavi. There were not a whole lot of D-Gray Man cosplays that I saw last year. Maybe we can plan a meet up?

Other cosplays I have planned:
from Anime: Tsubaki from Soul Eater
Excel from Excel Saga (possibly)
from games: Chidori from Persona 3 and I have a Junpei, Yukari, and Mitsuru joining me
from tv/webseries: Tink from The Guild-I have the whole group other than Bladezz, if you'd be interested in
cosplaying Bladezz
Zoe from Firefly-bringing a Mal, Kaylee, Jayne, and possibly an Inari. If you'd like to
cosplay the doctor, preacher, River, or Wash we'd be interested in having you join us
Martha Jones from Dr. Who-Bringing a Fem 10th doctor (this cosplay was her request)

if you have other ideas, we do lots of different cosplays and if you need advice my friends and I do cosplay commissions so we would be happy to help

hmm thats very odd you cant click on my link and kinda lame lol, thats awesome because i was looking for a alan Walker since you will be bringing one thats awesome. yeah im down for a meet up once i get there what hotel you guys staying in? ill be heading up there on the thu before the convention next year.. thats kinda cool you're having a Fem 10th Doctor lol cant wait to see that, if i have the money and stuff ill go as wash from Firefly. i have one friend that is coming with me hes dressing up as D from vampire hunter D gonna be a great time. thats cool yeah becasue if i go a Lavi i have no clue on how to make his hammer i really suck at that kinda stuff as for my costume i was thinking of buying it since i have no idea how to make it.

I haven't thought about our D-Gray Man costumes yet but there's lots of time. Plus they're military uniforms, essentially, and I've done a lot of those on request from friends. The question is, which version of the uniforms do we do? We like the first version but would probably do the second. The only reasoning against version 3 is I just bought a wig for Lenalee and it wasn't cheap.

The hammer would be the easiest part! Cardboard around a couple of hoops and wooden frame. I think you can get embroidery hoops (like they sell at craft stores and such) that size. Then you could attach dowel rods (probably 6 or so) with small nails between the two for the rest of the frame. Then attach poster cardboard or maybe even vinyl chair material around the whole frame. Paint and enjoy!

As for the hotel stuff, we are staying at the Hilton as of right now. Arriving on Thursday. We usually plan to be there around check in time (3ish) so that we can get our stuff out and ironed, wigs styled, last minute fixes finished, etc.

It would be AWESOME to have a Wash in our group! I'm excited. I just ordered my Mare's Leg and holster for Zoe and I'm working on getting the vest made.

Awesome that you're bringing a D. I haven't seen anyone from that in a while.
