Title: Cosplay!
Post by: Timu Sumisu on 2009-10-06 22:47:10
Anyone cosplay, or have pics of some awesome (or lulz worthy) costumes? Post a pic, share your thoughts!

I'll get it rolling with an awesome dissidia jecht!

NO EVIL COSPLAY SUCH AS MANFAYE OR BONER ROBIN

You are just waiting for someone to post Man-Faye or Boner-Robin, aren't you? :-D

I dunno if Man-Faye counts as evil per se; it's an obvious spoof and it takes balls of steel to wear that thing in public, but still... :-D

Anyway, Ran Asakawa as Lulu:

(http://borgborg.org/ran_asakawa_054.jpg)

You might want to think twice before googling her name; she's more of an adult entertainment professional than a cosplayer... links might turn out to be NSFW. :-P

Yes, if i recall, that gallery continues... quite a bit :P

Title: Re: Cosplay!
Post by: Jari on 2009-10-06 23:15:04
That it does. :-D But more to the point, there's a feature length film to go with it. :-P

Sadly, while the Lulu-part is good, rest of it is kinda meh.

In my reasearch for a "bearded" character to cosplay i came across this:
(http://i583.photobucket.com/albums/ss280/nanao-ise/full%20size/hughes9.jpg)

wich in a way is the perfect character for me cause i wear glasses irl and i have a beard (wich i am NOT SHAVING) therefore Hughes-san it is :) (its from a square-enix anime and they make the game, so it fits the topic !)

Yeah. And yeah. It's the beginning with Lulu that's the best part of it.

:-D

I agree. Also, her assets look quite qualified. Both of them. :-P

You should post your picture to the other thread, so people who haven't seen you would see the resemblance. :-)

Anyway, I don't think that anyone said this would be a thread for FF-cosplay only.

So, have some Black Cat. :-D

We've all seen the Kefka (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_c6EkWp79co) cosplays (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kKFAbxuxfVM&feature=channel), right?  They're actually not the best representation of Kefka, but meh... they're funny :-)

And here, we have a nomination for the worst cosplay ever:

Oh, cool!  We (EDIT: used to) share avatars!

The wig looks too white and not blond enough... it may be more appropriate for a Kadaj or Weiss cosplay.  Sorry to be negative.

oo nice dissidia style. I'm working on the very same. Should have it done by the summer, I've ripped his pauldron from the dissidia model and am adjusting it for use to make a fiberglass prop from it. Also talking with my propmaker about the buster sword, contemplating how we'll mix wood and fiberglassed foam, He suggested making a mould for the whole blade and while using a foam core, fill with liquid fiberglass. The trick is i do want it to be light. (my goal is to be able to twirl it as in the victory pose, i can nearly do it with another buster sword i made, weighing about 10 pounds... i figure if its lighter and better balanced i could pull it off). as for any other production notes, the sweater/tanktop/turtleneck hybrid thing is currently being custom knit by my sis.

Thanks, winter is coming in so I dont wanna fiberglass, as it reeks up the house and is rather toxic, in the summer i can just leave it outside, thus you'll have to wait some months, but if i make my paper base i'll post it. As to other parts, i'll post em whenever i make em.

@ Cloud_Cosplayer... good fer u! :P can you link it? i think i know the one you're talking about but i figure ye can dig up the link yourself.

I'm tempted to say something immature about people seeing the size of his sword and then begging to get stabbed with it.
But that'd be weird, so instead I'll say that some of those shots look really good. That guy with the black coat getting stabbed is cool, too bad it's blurry :(

Hello everyone. Sorry for the absence, have been somewhat busy with having so called life.

Anyway, I'm looking for a certain cosplay photo - for a reference for possible future photographic projects - and I figured that someone else besides me must have seen it as well. Google image search is failing very badly.

It's a photo of a cosplayer wearing massive set of (probably) articulated wings. Talking about something like 15 to 20 feet wingspan massive. IIRC, they weren't angel wings since they weren't white, but they were extremely impressive, with very realistic looking feathers (unlike most cosplay wings...). I think the cosplayer in that photo was kneeling on one knee. I don't even recall whether the person was male or female...

Obviously they were hand made, and I think I might have found a person who'd be able and willing to make a set for me. I'm more than a little tempted to use them for a photoshoot... maybe. Eventually. Perhaps. :-D

Anyone recall seeing such a photo?

lol, yeah it takes a long time. i'm workin on it =/. Doing an HST program atm, so hopefully it'll be a bit faster. you know now that i think of it, i actually have a squall griever pendant irl. wouldn't make a bad cosplay thing. though i didn't buy it for the FF value. i got it cause i needed a chain and the dissidia one had a really nice design. =P
