Daniel_Baker Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 Will be my second attempt at cosplay, first got lots of nice comments, probably not doing too much just an iron man T-Shirt like he wears in the movie, stark stickers on the wheelchair and the beard, would love to do more but can't really make my own costume and the chair makes off the shelf stuff awkward. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyDeTemps Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Hey everyone! Thanks LadyDeTemps for pointing me to this post! I'll most likely cosplay the Eighth Doctor (you can see my costume on my blog), and my hubby will possibly cosplay the Fourth... I just need to make sure I'll finish his costume on time, that scarf is taking forever to knit!! And we'd love to take part in the group shoot! (I joined the FB event, btw...) I *might* also cosplay Peggy Carter from CA:TFA on Sunday, but again, it all depends if I manage to finish on time. Not daring enough yet to enter the cosplay competition That's awesome, more the merrier. What I'll do is get all the people whom are with you to take photos and then that way we've got a copy each :). Also, I wanna point out that what I said to ladydetemps was accurate. Should you have an autograph being signed or in the line for a photoshoot, or even having something to eat, then we can wait for you guys to get there instead of saying "oh we'll do one photo now and another one when they all get here!" - I'll be in my 11th doctor cosplay on saturday obviously xD, but I'll be waiting by the doors with my mom for you guys. I think for a group pic could have the caption..."The Doctor....but not the one you were expecting" Only jacket and gaiters to make now... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Railok Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Oh yeah you gotta ask people for pictures. Do u have to pay seperate for cosplay. No. You only pay for the event. The cosplayers are all people like you and me - except they're wearing a costume! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyDeTemps Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 Oh yeah you gotta ask people for pictures. Do u have to pay seperate for cosplay. Now there's an idea to earn money for more autographs. lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pod0509 Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 Oh if I could charge for a picture of me in cosplay that would give me more money to spend that weekend. There are some people who cosplay in really impressive looking stuff and they raise money for charity. But they don't demand money or anything just have a bucket with them to collect the money. This woman that we saw last year was very popular, but she looks like Anne Hathaway! myself and my wife did a double take when we first saw her, she looked so much like her. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyDeTemps Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 The base is done. Made my 'gaiters' for my cosplay here but they keep collapsing ant the front....not sure how to solve it. I was thinking boning perhaps? Other suggestions have been interfacing, or more eyelets. Just need to start on the coat next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenomorph Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 I've got a pretty awesome Dexter Morgen outfit (his kill outfit), but not sure if it's really appropriate for a Comic Con? I generally go to these things in regular clothing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperNeo Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 My cosplays are going ok. Looks like I'll only be doing 2 this year though. Those being: Bane (comic book version) got most of the bits, just need to create a backpack/harness for the Venom Cable (X-Men) this is the one I need to work lots on, do the arm, mod the gun, get all the harnesses and pouches done. My girlfriend will be doing Lady Deadpool (Fri and Sat) and she's also doing Avengers: Age of Ultron Scarlet Witch (from the concept art and on set pictures we've seen) Gonna be a fun weekend, if you see us about, come and say hello :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icena Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 Love seeing everyone's progress photos-I'm hoping to take some once I've finished Uni and can actually work on my costumes! Also, question, has anyone ever worked with lacefront wigs before? My Daenerys wig is a lacefront and I've never used one before! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lacefronts basically have a lace front (as the name suggests ) that you cut and then attach to your head to give you a more natural/realistic looking hairline. The one I bought is this one from Arda Wigs: http://arda-wigs.com/products/matilda And your jacket's looking awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luke Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Hi guys I've got a question regarding cosplay. I'm thinking of bringing a costume/prop (depending on price of transport). Its a Dalek but I don't want to be in him all day and I don't want to be stuck looking after him (stopping people touching etc) so just wondering if anyone knows if there is an area that he could be put into to stop people getting at him while I wander/get autographs etc. Id love to bring all 3 that I have but just not enough friends to assist!!! lol. Thanks Luke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Namine Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 hmm...you'd have to email showmasters and ask them directly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Luke Yeah I'd e-mail Showmasters about this, if it's a full-sized Dalek! They have places to store bags etc but you'll need somewhere larger- I'm sure they'll be able to help you out if you email :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Yeah its a full size Dalek with all the bells and whistles!!! I've sent them an email but not sure if I'm getting replies as I had problems with account verification emails not arriving. Guess I will wait and see. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
