I'm going to dress up as Gene Starwind this year instead of Markus which was my own anime character from Ultimate Wizard Battles.

I am going as Gendo Ikari from Evangelion or Roronoa Zoro from One Piece. I will be cosplaying at Animazement.

I've begun a commission on a Seta Soujirou costume from Rurouni Kenshin. It's for ACen'03 and possibly A-kon 2003. Perhaps I'll see you guys there. I doubt there will be *that* many Soujirous. I did a hastily made Vaughn Fanel from Escaflowne at ACen'02, but this year I'm actually...spending money (gasp!). BTW I didn't know this stuff was THAT expensive. Also didn't know people were so talented :).

I also suggest cosplay.com I found it yesterday and found tons of places to possibly do a commission.

If I was gonna cosplay I would do it as Paladin Anderson from Hellsing. I look almost exactly like him. I would just have to let my hair grow out a little more.

Last year at Otakon I saw this one guy who had gone completely all out. He looked EXACTLY like Auran from FFX down to every detail. The only thing that kept him from being an exact clone was that he was black, not that that's a bad thing.

I have yet to cosplay, nor do I ever intend to. It costs money, and my funding is a bit tight as of late. The first time I was a Otakon my hair was moosed up and had just been bleached the previous week. It was just my look back then. Despite the fact I wasn't dressed up like any DBZ character, people kept saying "Wow. A Super Sayan." I am never bleaching my hair again.

This year I've lightly contemplated dressing up like my own character. All I would really need is a trenchcoat and a little makeup and I'd be set. If only my hair would grow straight.

This is my first year cosplaying. I always enjoyed seeing all of the awesome costume at the cons and I don't mind getting my picture taken ^^ So I figure I'd give it a try. Not to mention, I love dressing up ^^

I'll be going to Fanime and Anime Expo as:
Ayame Sohma from Fruits Basket
Eiji Kikumaru from Prince of Tennis
(I look exactly like him with my new haircut, it's scary! I just need to dye my hair maroon/burgundy)

I have only gone to one con. That was c-kon 2002. I intend to go this year as well. i am considering cosplaying but cant seem to come up with a good idea that could be made cheap.
If any one has any ideas, I have thought about aoshi or saito from kenshin or gendo or kaji from eva. I used to look just like kaji but then i cut may hair.

Hey Vegeta_Jnr,
You wouldn't have happened to spot these two over the weekend would you?
