stuart29 Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 Providing I can get there, I'm considering going as Ghostface from Scream for a laugh. I picked up the proper replica mask a few years ago and that coupled with a full length black cape goes quite well lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

werepuppy Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 I have a feeling people may be sick of hearing this from me - it happens pretty much every year - but my cosplay has changed and this is the final one now. And... yeah, I'm pretty pleased with the idea of this, even if I have commissioned it instead of making it myself. (I know, I know, the horror. But by the time I got a decent sewing machine I would have been out near enough the same price as the cost of commission - which I only did because it was on sale.) All I need to get now is a wig, shoes, and the appropriate prop, the latter of which is proving the hardest to achieve so any advice for someone on a budget would be greatly appreciated. ... Wait, I haven't said who, have I? *scans* No, I haven't. Sorry about that. Erm, yeah. I'm going as Merida, from Disney Pixar's Brave. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carnosoul Posted March 31, 2014 Author Share Posted March 31, 2014 I have no idea how to quote posts.. pressing the quote button doesn't seem to be working for me (if someone wants to explain that to me feel free!) Thanks Brian! I'm really excited to come to the Glasgow con in particular as it's one place in Scotland I've never been, despite spending so much time up there. Yes, it'll be a Tardis dress :). I'm definitely going to have sounds and lights! I've got some ideas. I'd like to make the dress quite interactive, and have everything incorporate into the outfit (I'm gonna wear tardis head gear, have a tardis bag to carry my stuff around etc.). Early days but I'm so excited to get on with it! Hi Jadelouise Your Tardis dress sounds awesome,it will be cool to see,you will really enjoy the glasgow con it has a great and quite relaxed atmosphere 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swany Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Oh gosh. OK so this is a noob move I'm sure I'm about to make. I'm going to Collectormania this year, and though I can see rules on props I've looked and looked and I can't see any rules on actual costumes. Just because I know a lot of cons have restrictions on what people can and can't wear. I've seen examples of cosplayers been asked to cover up at some cons. Like a girl cosplaying Yoko from Gurren Lagann (bikini top and booty shorts) at a con was asked to cover up. this show's rule is "An amount of coverage comparable to typical swimwear is fine-If planning a skimpy or delicate costume it is recommended that you take extra precautions beneath the costume to avoid exposing yourself." Is it the same for Collectormania, or am I gonna get kicked out for the cosplay I'm planning? I mean I do think I saw pics of someone cosplaying Slave Leia so maybe I'm just worrying needlessly. That aside, I'm hoping to make a Pyramid Head costume for one of the days. If the one I'm planning isn't allowed I'll probably wear one of my old cosplays or finish my Mami Tomoe. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swany Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 Oh man, I better get to it then. This'll be my first large prop. And my first helmet. What's even funnier is I never completed Silent Hill 2 myself. I reached the hospital and gave up 'cause even non-Hellworld hospitals freak me out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain_Sparrow Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 Haha I remember playing it in an arcade down south yrs ago and I was scared crazy and some of the other kids laughed hahaha if they laughed now they'd get run through with me cutlass hahaha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not so much by the monsters cause I've read up on them and seen so much of them they don't phase me anymore (hahahah that's a lie). But even just the ambient sound and music is spooky. Speaking of swords, tho! I spent the better part of this evening out the back cutting foam for a cosplay sword. And driving my neighbours dog crazy with the noise. I'm making this for Deecon this weekend, but I'll be reusing it for one of my cosplays at collectormania. Probably Sunday I'll be wearing Junketsu. Saturday'll prolly be P-Hiddy. Also while I'm here. Can I ask how long everyone has been cosplaying? It's only been like 6 or 7 months for me, I came into it late (I'm 24) but I love it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
werepuppy Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 @Swany That sword looks incredible! You've got amazing amounts of skill there! Personally I've only been cosplaying for ... a few years, I think, but it's only once or twice a year. I mostly stick to closet cosplays, so this year will be my first step out of that (though at the same time, I'm working on making a cosplay that is my own take on the Doctor) On a random note, still looking for a bow and arrow set on a budget. Surprisingly hard. Huh. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one memory that sticks in my brain from it was quite early on in the game where a cat jumps out a locker. I pretty much jumped from one end of my room to the other when that happened lol. The 2006 movie was pretty good, They nailed the look of the game pretty well with old P-head having the stand out scenes. Good luck with the costume. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
