Sooooo for the collectormania 4 in March next year, which costumes will you be seen in?

I'll be cosplaying as Akatsuki Naruto^_^

Posted Image

And on the other day (might be first or second) I'll be cosplaying as Ichimaru Gin^_^

Posted Image

However, if I find the right wig, then I'll be cosplaying as Byakuya instead^_^

Great choices.  I hope to cosplay as Sephiroth from FF7-Advent Children or Abel Nightroad from Trinity Blood and as Lucius Malfoy.  It all depends what gets finished it time.

I'm doing my PoA Sirius Black again for at least one day, and I might try and get Zell (FF8) finished by then. Although, I love my Sirius costume so I may end up doing it both days.

Your Sirius is cool.  My Sephiroth is unlikely to be ready for G-mex.  As I've had delay as we sort house for new flatmate.  I'll be going as;

She made it, but it broke. *sob* it was a ruddy brilliant copy as well. Well i've worked out my cossies for gmex, i'll be going as marie antoinette (the film) and serafina pekula the witch from the golden compass, its just a cool cossie and very elven to look at, and fragile and diaphinious. (not sure if i spelt that right.) lol. Just starting the stays for the marie antoinette, got to order some steel boning though, plastic just isn't strong enough lately. lol, put on a bit of weight. Though if i can't get the witch one together in time i'm gonna go as abby from ncis. So waddya think? Abby or serafina?:D

Yes, I built my cane.  Yes, it broke.  But then I discovered fibre glass and fixed it.  I do want to get one of the offical ones when I get cash.  Can't wait to see your next cossies Gem.  The ones you did for the last Mnachester ones where awesome.

You gotta love fibre glass, works wonders when all else fails and is alot lighter than most sculpting materials, well untill you get the fibre everywhere, and it starts to irritate. LOL. Yeah marie antoinette's gonna be fun, i just found out how much the boning for the corset  and panniers alone is gonna cost, and i need over 20 metres of fabric ffor the gown alone, tonys gonna haave fun with me soon. lol, I saw the perfect fabric for the serafina dress the other day though, so i might get some tomorrow.. yay i'm gonna enjoy this methinks.

Ok, so I was meant to be getting a costume ready for another event in May (can't name it here), but I'd like to get it done for an event before then - even GMEX if I can get it done.

The costume is Roxas, from Kingdom Hearts 2. I have to do the whole costume, sort out a wig because I don't have one that'll style that way, and a keyblade (I was thinking strong foam so I can't hurt anyone but it won't break?)

If anyone has any advice that can help, please let me know! :dance:

Unless I end up crewing, I'm gonna be in either Elizabeth Swann's white dress from POTC, or Claire Bennet's cheerleading uniform (either or both!) from Heroes.

oooh all those costumes look and sound so awesome. I keep trying to convince my friends to cosplay with me but i'm not sure if they will. I may cosplay for march if i can decide what to do but if not then i'm definately cosplaying next november. The only trouble with march is i'm in the middle of my exams so its going to be a pain to get a lot of free time... Good luck with finishing your costumes everyone  :YAHOO:

Thats why I only use the liquid and the hardener part on plater bandage.  Much tidier too.

Anime Angel, the wig looks great.  

TurkFox.  Look in my sig you'll find a link to a Final Fantasy/Square Enis cosplay site.  It will have all the info you need to make a Roxas.
