i know many of you guys think up really cool or bizarre ideas for cosplaying and i thought we could all shout those out so i made a thread
my recent idea is a Yankee from Fruits Baskets
some past ones are Master Roshi from DB in black lingerie the Nimbus Cloud from DB and maybe with a cardboard cut out of young Goku or a little kid as Goku (the image just came to mind) battle damaged Mimi from Buttobi CPU
an odd one is Sailor Scouts in mid transformation from Sailor Moon
oh and of course Sexy no Jitsu from Naruto falls under this category

How about Dark Schneider from Bastard Sephiroth Guts from Berserk... but the sword might be a problem Zagato from MKR Sawamura Seiji from Midori no hibi Nobunaga Oda (doesnt matter which source, the black armor and red cape are awesome) Samanosuke- onimusha (either human or Demon form- demon form if i could pull it off would rock! although the psychodelic colors might be a small problem) Fred Flinstone (not from an anime but still would be easy and cool)
anywoo thats all the cool ideas i can come up with for right now.... (if anyone could tell me the practicality of any of these costumes it would be greatly appreciated!)

Sephiroth or Guts from Berserk... but the sword might be a problem If people can make the Zabuza sword then Guts's sword will be cake.

Dark Schneider from Bastard Sephiroth Nobunaga Oda (doesnt matter which source, the black armor and red cape are awesome) Armor is a pain in the ass, figure you got to paper mache it.. I tried doing dark schneider from bastard, its a simple costume except for the arm bracers. even easyer if you do the costume from the first episode. Sephiroth is easy, finding the blue contacts is really the hardest part (and being able to show off your chest in public) Nobunaga Oda would be freaking awsome but again armor is a hard thing to do. It would have been easier at halloween to find plastic armor to work with. plus that red black cape.

And because i have nothing to do at the moment here are some more costumes of which to discuss practicality:
Apocolypse or Cable *perhaps with a deadpool counterpart* (again not anime but still... just throwin it out there) Venom with mouth open and tongue hanging out (been thinking about comics lately... oh well) Ruby weapon- FF7 (if anyone has ever thought of Cos Playing as a creature from a final fantasy and pulled it off i havent seen it) Zangetsu- Bleach (The coat is the biggest problem i guess... and yes ive seen it done) Guyver 1 or 3 (i imagine the logistics are quite hard) A white Eva (the whole not having eyes might be a poblem) A mech from Eureka Seven Dacia from Wolfs Rain Gackt... in whatever that entails. not the being gay part.
uh... yeah... thats my ideas for now.... well let me know the feasability of any of em.

The Sad part is i have seen most of the marvel ones done to such a dregree of awsome i wouldnt care to try to duplicate them. beware going to comic con, it changes what you think a cool costume is.
Once again i will say that armor is dificult to make look realistic without being expesive. Most Robot costumes are 90 % cardboard and a pain in the ass to move/sit/do anything but stand in. The only mecha suit i saw that was awsome to wear was a nylon Eva unit one suit. you could try to do that with the unit 7 but i dont think you could pull it off as nice.
On the bright side doing something like Cable is easy. Most of that is willing to wear bright spandex in public. x2 for deadpool. oh and you have to put up with people asking who the hell you are because your a secondary character in a show with little secondary characters. Its like dressing up as tony stark, without the iron man suit.
Man i ranted way too long on this. Some Ideas in my head: Bleach ghostform with dummy (or Hallow with mask) Beet's Older Brother (cant think of his name right now) any of the beet warriors for that matter Rahxephon (I have plans to make it but god help whoever wears it) Aizen Rezzo the red priest Mushishi Mangaverse Wolverine/Spiderman/MJ/FF team/DareDevil
plus i have ideas for costumes for people. but thats cause they remind me of a character.

I was thinking about several cosplay to do next year for AX:
Samurai onigiri Cross-play Sailor Mars (it should be clear that I'm comfortable with my gender enough to do so) Sanosuke (RuroKen) Souichiro Demon-slayer form (Tenjho Tenge)
Also if I had tons of dollars to waste I was thinking about Roxas from KH II with an Oblivion that's been metal-worked. I have the specs worked out for the blade but it seems rather costly.

Wow, two years since a new post. Well, since this is my first time of a cosplay idea, I was thinking along the lines of the blue mage from FFTA. Practical, not too hard to make, and since my size is close to the official art to the blue mage, I shouldn't be doing it wrong (as a note, I have brown hair)

I've had my eye on either Russia (Ivan) or Lithuania (Toris) from Hetalia. Unfortunately, I have little to no skill in needlecraft so this may be a challenge.

The most bizarre cosplay I can think of has been done... the guy with the dangling testicle from Puni Puni Poemi: www.tlynnec.net/pictures/ax/poemi.jpg I don't think anything I can come up with would top that...

Hey! Is there anyone here from club who knows how to sew? I want to cosplay as a Team Rocket Scientist for Fanime this year and I have the Lab Coat, but I still need to buy a red colored "R" to put on and I have zero sewing abilities. Can anyone help me out?
