Lythara Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 I love those journeys ... people trying to be super sneaky to get a good look. Kids are the best, they don't care they will just shout anything Having people come up to you and they recognise the character, it is the best feeling!

whitewillow Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Last year I took the train from Twickenham and I felt a bit weird at the beginning of the journey, as it was only me in costume. An old lady asked me about it and I said I was going to a Film and Comic Convention. As I got closer to Earl's Court, more cosplayers came on so I didn't look weird any more. You should just not mind what other people might think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should just not mind what other people might think. That's basically the situation I'll be in. I'm not too worried about the tube because a) it's comic con time and it's London anyway but from the quiet stations of Northamptonshire I'm likely to stick out like a sore thumb as I'll be in a period costume in the height of the summer. Â charlesberg, absolutely do say hello if we bump into each other! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazyfools Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 I got tutted at, for dressing up as Papa Lazarou at a station, I had to stop at on the way to Earl's Court. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PenThePirate Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Im expecting some raised eyebrows for my Han Solo cosplay on the way in, but it is London, and luckily another Star Wars event is going on at the same time so I guess they'll attribute it to that as much as anything!
