carnosoul Posted August 7, 2014 Author Share Posted August 7, 2014 Jason would be good, mate. Classic photo opportunity if someone goes as Freddy or Michael Myers too!! You should try and cobble it together for Glasgow - a blood-soaked Jason is precisely the kind of thing id like to see this year Cosplay-wise... I've made up my mind iam going to be cosplaying as Jason next year,I've always wanted to get more into the cosplay but always been too shy iam hoping it will help me get over my shyness and make new friends 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
werepuppy Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 I'm sure your Jason will be awesome, carnosoul. And I hope I'm not being presumptuous here in saying that if you're on this board, you've already got friends at the con! Seriously people, it's gonna be great to see you all! Hope we get the chance for photos - last year was a bit stowed out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LuckyLorri Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 I'm going as Catwoman, originally wanted to go as Marceline the Vampire Queen from Adventure Time but have left it too long to get everything in order for that & instead have purchased a Catwoman costume - Feel terrible about not actually making my own Looking forward to this event so much, it's the first I've ever been to :) :) 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modern_day_prophet Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 Catwoman? Awesome. Another person flying the flag for DC! I'm going as Slade Wilson/Deathstroke and someone on here a while back said they were going as Harley Quinn, so you'll be in good company. Cant wait to see it... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StockingFairy Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 I'm not too confident with so much on show as i'm a bit on the marshmallowey side so this costume is basically my test of getting the baws to wear it and buck up my self confidence a wee bit, so i'm nit picking and finding faults everywhere xD 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modern_day_prophet Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 I hear you. I'm large myself, thats just the way it is. So im fortunate that my cosplay of Deathstroke allows me to pad the crap out of arms, legs, chest etc with foamed plates akin to the characters Armored vest and arm guars and leg protectors etc, so im likely to get away with it, and hopefully will end up with a loadout on the day that makes me look like a beefed up man-mountain, which sells the character even more cos hes built like a tank!!! Its all about what you can get away with, StockingFairy!! And i think your costume is sound - all the pieces are there so as long as its accurate, people arent gonna be checking anything else out. Actually, youve kinda made me more certain than ever to do it here, cos ill admit i was wavering, and yet now i dont feel like the only one who fells this way before doing a character.. Lets do this...! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StockingFairy Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 I do this for every character, end up hating it and then when i wear it to the event people compliment me and ask for photos and i feel a whole lot more positive about it (sounds a wee bit big headed of me lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claymore61 Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 This will be my first con, so a bit of a confidence issue........ Hence the big Fk off latex mask lol.

Swany Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 (edited) Aww thanks Swanny! I'mone of the cosplay guest stars again this year so i will be at a stall, doing some panels and also judging the contest so you will see me kicking about. Then I'll make a point to come over and do my "I'm looking at some fantastic cosplay work" dance. Which is a lot of screeching, gesturing and generally making everyone very embarrassed.

MentalHaggis1990 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 (edited) Now that I've finished my Sanji (One Piece) cosplay, I'm ready for the weekend. Got both of my cosplays ready for standby. I'll be Mephisto Pheles on Saturday and Sanji on Sunday Edited August 11, 2014 by MentalHaggis1990 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
werepuppy Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Saying it now: everyone on this board is awesome. If I had the money, I'd buy you all a drink. Alas, I am a poor person. Virtual cookie, anyone? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LuckyLorri Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 I'll take a virtual cookie :) I agree Zara, everyone here is awesome. Really glad I found this forum & I feel much better about attending dressed up, I was petrified at first, especially after I was watching some videos of Collectormania on YouTube, it didn't seem like there were all that many people dressed up for the event. Question to anyone who happens to see this, are you guys going dressed up or are you changing at the event itself...? I need to get a train then a bus from Dumbarton and I'll more than likely be dressed up on the journey (which will be a new experience to say the least!!). Next year I swear I'm going to actually spend time and effort making my costume, I'm going to feel so bad when I see all the awesome one's you guys have come up with, you'll all put me to shame! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
