What are your plans for Mechacon 5?

[Tsukino Shinobi]

OOH OOH OOH I JUST THOUGHT OF SOMETHING.

Well actually two things ^-^' (or three, four...?)

I just remembered I've been wanting to cosplay as Miku from An Cafe for a while, but I'm not sure which outfit to make ^-^' I'll probably end up doing the outfit form the Cherry Saku Yuuki video~ And it would be fun to attempt an Edward Scissorhands cosplay, if I can just figure out how I would make the hands themselves XDD

(Miku's the one in the red)

And this is probably gonna be the outfit I'd make for Edward, the leather bodysuit would just be too hot xD

And I think I can pull one more year out of my Youji wig, since I wanted to do one of the summer outfits instead of the stuffy uniform~

I've already decided that I going to do Temari again since I don't think I did it anywhere near long enough.

I'm not sure about second thought; I've got some ideas but let's just say that if I do it without a wig I may start out my senior year with blue-tinted hair.

I did the major Kusanagi from Ghost in the Shell this year, it was my first ever cosplay and believe it or not was like 80 percent homemade, i had to dive into a costume shop that had leathers that were WAY too big for me and start from scratch on them. I know it wasn't the greatest, but hey, I tried. I already know what I'm doing next year though. If basic training and tech school don't take up the rest of my life, I'm going to start working on a Canti costume from FLCL. Yupyupyup! I'm gonna have the giant TV Head and everything! ^_^

WAIT... SOMEONE DID MOTOKO... AND I MISSED IT?

[Kiotoko-Solo]

Link and Midna: Hi! Well since we did regular old Link and the normal Midna we are thinking about doing more Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess cosplays!

Link: I'm planning on doing Magic Armor Link (because i'm better with crafts than anything). Also Zelda IF there is another Ball or a fomal dance of some sort.

Midna: I'm planning on the Adult Midna form and also Dark Link!!

Link: We are actually starting now because they are starting to get heavier winter-like materials and i really really like the heavier material, it sews better and holds up better ^_^

[DirtyTrick]

Yes, indeed there was, but I had a malfunction in my costume around my knees about 5 hours into it... T_T I got so mad I tore that part off and ran upstairs and changed into my black/red goth outfit. Which did seem more fitting for the rave later that night, though. But, still, all that work! For just 5 hours.

[zimpirate]

I'm going to try and dress up as Jin and the main guy both from Persona 3.

[alukah]

I am going to bring back Jin from Samurai Champloo for next year, and also add some kitsune ears and tail, since I'm in love with some of the doujinshi that features him as such...

I'm a bit torn at the moment. I know I would LOVE to cosplay someone from Ouran High, but I'm not sure if I should go as Haruhi or as Kyouya. I would need a wig for both, but with Kyouya I can keep my glasses on. Haruhi I would need to invest in some contacts for...However, I am hoping for a yuri "Blind Date" in the cosplay contest's half time show next year, and I would like to participate in it as her... Is it too early for me to be worrying about that?

Finally, I would like to go as my OC (sorta), Xinj, which was something I had planned for this year, but because of a lack of time and funds, I was unable to pull him off. If for some reason I cannot pull him off again next year, the year after, he would probably be my ONLY new cosplay.

I think it will be easier this coming year, since I already have one of my costumes done.

My reaction, exactly.

[ashmatic]

Okay NOW I'm thinking of Eternal Sonata as well (The Allegretto from the contest started my gears going), just an idea I'm passing around.
I'm thinking Salsa maybe? I wanna cosplay someone with a lot of personality. It'll be EVEN BETTER if I can find a March as well!

[AeronautDreamer]

I'm going to see how the year spans out before I say one way or another.

BUT! I will have a few planned. :3

Anywhere from a short anime called Kakurenbo to Final Fantasy. I'd loooove to do a Ghibli costume as well.

[Chrono]

I can't say anything definite yet but there are two costumes I am going to try for next year Captain Falcon and Tuxedo mask!

[Myasina]

Definately going to have Haru from The Cat Returns by then... and maybe fall uniform Orihime from Bleach also. Another one I would REALLY like to have is Murrue Ramius from Gundam SEED although I doubt it... I've been making shopping lists for Murrue, Sakura Shinguji (Sakura Taisen), Maya Fey (Pheonix Wright), Subaru (.hack//sign) out of boredom and considering my options... aside from Haru and Orihime I would only be able to take one semi-large project. D:

[DirtyTrick]

Like I said, yes, I was there...I just wasn't in cosplay long. Now I know I saw another major on that friday, right when I was walking in, her hair just wasn't blue or anything. She looked much more to it than me though, lol.
But yes, I really wanna make a Canti for next year, I'm just wondering how how how? If anyone has any good ideas for materials or instructions to make one I would LOVE that. I really want a tv head...

[Tsukino Shinobi]

Subaru (.hack//sign)

=O That would be so fun~

We should so get some sort of .hack// group together, since it's looking more and more likely I'll be making Sora's outfit ^-^ <3

[roxas-kitax]

Awesome! I have changed my plans since it may be a bit hard to do Cubia and a little unrecognizeable to others.

So here is my cosplay list so far:
Ouka from .hack// LOTB


Rhyme from TWEWY


Roxas and Ritsuka again.

[Kitsune_Zanox]

Aww...yall making me wanna do Macha/Maha now from .Hack//. I'm going to change the list from time to time but Weregarurumon, Mewtwo (Gijinka) , and Ulquiorra are going to be the ones that are not changing. I guess I could do one more...

[AeronautDreamer]

It's allll up in the at the moment. xD I guess I could shoot for a finished Kuja, characters from Kakurenbo: Hide and Seek (obscure, I know), and possibly something else. I don't know yet.

[Myasina]

Just a little nervous about it... I'm not a very good seamstress or craftsperson... I'll need to practice a lot. Dx
I did take Home Ec but it didn't help me much... is Sewing for Dummies a good beginner's guide?

[Cisorlyx]

I'm going to try and dress up as Jin and the main guy both from Persona 3.

Persona 3 *_*

I saw a Ryoji and a Mitsuru this time around. It'd be cool to see more P3 next year. ^_^

I'd love to do Shinji, but I'm too afraid.
