I.. I would love to be Bubbleman, what are you talking about?

This one is stupid...
I have a HUGE crush on Milla Jovovich, and Leeloo is one of my fav. movie characters ever.
So I just tell myself that this one is a sacred one. Never to be cosplayed :< I will hate myself if I do it, cause Im so sure I'll fuck it up.

... Theres also plenty of other dreamcostumes, but Im sure I'll make those someday.

There's a list of manly characters that I would LOVE to do, but I'm far too, well, female.

Group-wise, I'd love to do an entire Homunculi group from FMA, and an entire group of the samurai heroes from Phoenix Wright! When I finally finish Pink Princess, I'll work on getting others to this with me!

Also: the Shiva bike girls from FFXIII. HOW COOL WOULD THAT BE. I need to lose weight before this happens, and I need another chick to do it with me.

>>1982606
If you could put that together, you could perform that Duane and Brand0 version of MM2's themes

not a full picture of the dress, since there isn't one [I made s ketch and I just improvised the bottom half]
it's Rin Kagamine, from the "Daughter of Evil" video.
the problem: I've never sewn anything in my goddamn life

but I am still determined to attempt this with the proper help of tutorials, experienced costume makers, and lots of sewing patterns.

I know it isn't impossible but the wig is so long and wide and I don't even know what to make the armor out of and the fluffy bit in the back... Guhhh.

One day! When I'm better at sewing, one day!

>>1982606
You dream is horribly inspiring, and if I had the skills to make it I'd happily offer to be the Bubbleman.

Also

My Dream Cosplay would have to be Princess Nina Windia From Brath of Fire II. The only thing holding me back is money and that I have no idea how to make nice looking but strong pair of (closed) wings.

A whole cosplay group of all the characters in their dragoon form from Legend of Dragoon. I think it's a given as to why this will never happen.

Will soon no longer be a dream but a reality!
The fun foam is being broken out!

RenRenRenRenRenRen.


Though I don't have the body for it, nor any fucking idea of how to make it.

>>1984033
This was my dream, its currently in progress, although I'm not happy with the results. My new dream is a big Avalon Code group, but that'll never happen cos its such an obscure/unloved game...

Berserker from Fate Zero

reason I'm not doing it: I'm too short my legs especially and my head is too big and I wear glasses.

unless I'm going to the ironic chibi version I can't pull this off.

also I have no idea on how to do the plumes on the head

>>1984083

Fuck that would be amazing.

The Sorrow. I'm flat-chested enough to get away with crossplay, but the dark hair and skin would just fuck the whole thing over.

http://www.erepublik.com/en/referrer/Psholti

This except it's way to crazy for a novice cosplayer to try to make such a detailed armor.

(It's a Divine Rouge from Lineage 2)

Ai chan.

It's not a ridiculous amount of work (even with proper armor, dammit people!) but I have to much respect for the character to even try it.

I'm a rather tiny girl so unless I coerce my army of under-13 cousins to be the rest of the cast, there's no way.

This is one of the few cases where I actually care about body type (Sol Badguy? Been there, done that.)

You are my Sun. Darling, I need you...

>>1983049
Man, I want to do FFXIII Shiva too. I only wish I could hack off my legs for the part and regrow them like a cool salamander tail after the con. :- /

I'd also like to do mascot cosplays. But I have no idea how to properly transfer them to another con when I have to fly, so they're out.

Man, I really wish I could do a group Djinn Cosplay Group.

Also

>>1982606

I WANT TO BE AIRMAN.

This as a group and me as Rubicante doing this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C8vz186pjY0
I am nowhere skilled enough for it though. :(

>>1984486

It's totally possible to do Shiva without any dismemberment! Stilts and wonderflex :D Creativity and materials!

Now I just need a job and to lose 20 or so pounds... sobsobsob

>>1984489

OMFG YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

I've always wanted to start a cosplay skit group where we recreate scenes from rhythm games and perform them...

Which leads me to my dream cosplay, a fully-functional Flying O from Gitaroo Man. euheuhehehueh

I could never make that mask... ;_;

Ranka Lee's Miss Macross outfit.

but alas, she is small and cute. And I....will never be ;_;

Group: I want to get together Five Star Stories Group terribly...I somewhat am trying to make this a reality ;____;

Myself: King Gainer or Nekki basara...because I lack the /m/ genes.

>>1983947
me again, I forgot to put that it would be MY DREAM! if I could get the entire cast of the "Daughter of Evil" video and re-enact it as a skit. Lady in green, Man of Blue, lady mercenary in Red, Servant...

but alas, I don't know that many people who actually give a damn about costume making. At least I have a Lady in Green and Man of Blue [miku and kaito]

hahahahaha bubbleman is a faggot

>>1984373
AVALON CODE YES

I WANT TO COSPLAY FROM THIS BUT NOBODY ELSE SEEMS TO LIKE IT

>>1984777
FSS eh? Awesome. Tell me the details about this group. I have a girlfriend who's black and wants to cosplay Parthenon (racial cosplay lulz). I might be able to rope in a friend to do Crytharis (I don't know why he likes that character so much). In the end, I want a bunch of us to go around in those Mirage Knight capes (and resultingly be thrown out for looking like the kkk).

Also, check out Anime North 09 pics, there was a most epic King Gainer.

>>1984956
Please tell me you're a britfag? If not, I may have to take the summer in 'merica next year...

>>1985325
Canadian, sorry. :(

Do you know where to find good references? I can't find many.

>>1985081
>>1984777

Tell me about this group too.
I've been planning to cosplay Dougulas Kaien

>>1984655
Speaking of rhythm games, I wonder if anyone has done any Rhythm Heaven cosplay? I was contemplating cosplaying DJ Yellow or the Stomp Farmer, but it seems a bit out there

>>1985331
I've been searching for ages and have amassed pretty much all there is. I'll zip em and stick em on a sharing website.

>>1985412
Aww, thanks so much! I'll be eagerly awaiting them.

>>1984486
>I'd also like to do mascot cosplays. But I have no idea how to properly transfer them to another con when I have to fly, so they're out.
Ship them to a trusted friend who is also going to the con? Just an idea throwing it out there.

>>1985416
Here's all I could find, including some fanart. I couldn't find any scans of the artbook, but I know it exists. I hope this helps.

http://rapidshare.com/files/258870152/Avalon_code_refs.rar.html

>>1985476
Thanks again. :)

Yeah, I don't even know where to start in the "reasons I can't do this."

Perhaps NO LEGS, HURR HURR?

Other candidates include: A proper Varia suit Samus (I'm too short for this to be effective and I'd want to make it out of fibreglass and 1) the cost would be huge 2) I lack the space to make it since I'm living in a condo.)

Eternal sonata.
Not too complicated for me-- too complicated for my cosplay friends. and I'm too lazy to make their outfits

Sigh, still dreaming. It is the lack of money and lack of ideas of how to do her wings and feet really that is stopping me.

Talk about dream your costume? More like talk about your impossible costume. The best I can come up with is make a posable Crystal Bowie (often called Crystal Boy) made of clear rubber molded over a skeleton. Space Adventure Cobra ftw

>>1985347
Also, when and where are 'you' planning on doing him? My group was slated for Anime North this year, so we're aiming of '10. Which costume of his are you doing? I love his FEMC uniform.

>>1985411
oh, that would be awesome. If I could, I would do those blue people from the GBA game (I think they are also in the first ping pong level on DS?), a gif of the main character failing to punch is what made me find the game in the first place!

Ser Gregor Clegane from A Song of Ice and Fire by George RR Martin


Reasons why I cant do it: I'm not eight feet tall.
Theoretically it wouldn't be hard to make me seem really really tall (I'm already 6'5) by wearing tall shoes and having the top of my head only reach the bottom of the helmet but logistical problems and the fact that I lack the budget and materials of a Hollywood costume company makes it a pipe dream

>>1985411
If you have a cure account, I believe there is cosplay of Love Lab on there. I've been thinking about Rhythm Heaven skits too!

>>1985554
I bet your the same person who posted this months ago in a similar thread. I actually have made this costume once but I'm still in your boat; I want to remake it really bad. I know how I want to do it but finding the time is what's stopping me. Good luck with yours! Horray for Legend of Mana fans!

>>1986354

This would be so sweet if you (or someone) could pull it off. In real steel armor (Berserk armor guy...?). I am getting terrible mental images of this cosplay with godawful Japanese cosplayer-style platform boots, though...

>>1986354

That would be seriously amazing. I'd love to do some Song of Ice and Fire cosplay myself

Ezio from Assassin's Creed 2 would be my "I can die happy now" cosplay. Problems:

- I'm not a tall, muscular male (medium-height, curvy-ish female)
- I'm too cheap to commission it
- I don't want to bastardize it by making a female version

K-On group, Lucky Star group...ugh so many. ; ^ ;

Mostly 'cause I don't have that many friends that actually cosplay.

I want this SO badly but lack the building and storing space. Not to mention getting it anywhere would be ridiculous.

That and trying to walk around half-blind in a badly balanced straight jacket isn't my idea of fun.

Yu Yu Hakusho or Ranma full cast. YYH would be damn near impossible for REAL fullness, I think we'd pick an arc and just do characters from there.

Barring that, I'd love to do Sarah's dress from Labyrinth, but I don't think I'll ever have the money or patience for it... and I'd probably look silly wearing it.

Out of my massive list of dream costumes, this one I probably wont even try. The proportions are just too odd to try to replicate and that hair wtf.

>>1987655
I've wanted that dress forever! However, it'd probably take a miracle *cough*maleJareth*cough* for me to actually try.
I've got some decent references if you ever decide otherwise.

>>1984361
Don't.
That would be lame as shit and I'm trying to sound polite

The only other person I know who I could get to do this with me doesn't look a THING like me. We're not even close in height or body type.

That...and neither one of us are really...asian looking.

>>1982606

I'm actually starting a Quick Man cosplay for next year, OP. My dream's to get a decent group together as well. Never will happen.

>>1987754
>>1982606
>>1982677

>>1985476
Yay for Avaslon Code! Game arrived today, so I can finally play it.

Have Ur planned for this autumn. Next spring Mieli.
Still searching desperately for pictures of the characters from behind. Hope the file will help me.

Plus requesting for more information on that Artbook. Title? ISBN? Anything?

I don't want to be "THAT" fatty.

Maybe someday, once my legs are fully toned.

>>1982606
Azure flame god. One day... ONE DAY

>>1982606
KOS-MOS v.4 from Xenosaga III. Currently lack the skills to make it amazing. I need more practice.

>>1987919
Forgot the pic...

This. I'm so excited. It's still a dream cosplay even though I'm doing it. Currently in the planning stages/collecting other group members.

>>1984486
You ship them to the hotel you're staying at.

>>1987936
for what con, if i may ask? i want to do a Persona my damn self, but i like group cosplay more than single...

>>1988012
Otakon 2010. So far we have Hermes, Junpei, Aigis, Fuuka, and possibly a Takaya.

>>1988031
I must see you guys, I'm planning to have Mitsuru done by then.

As for dream cosplay? Very related. I don't have the body nor the legs for it...

>>1988031
i... i might be going? if i end up going i will definitely bring a Persona with me. it would be rad to find a group there... Thanatos or Messiah are kind dream cosplays, if i could transport them.

>>1988048
>>1988044
Oh, transportation. After making a 7+ hour drive that should have been about a 6 hour drive up there (with a stomach virus), our Junpei and I decided that we're taking the train next year. Basically, wings = carry on...

If you guys end up going, we'll have to get some awesome pictures. Maybe an evening outdoor shoot?

And to contribute...another costume I am determined to do someday.

I'm a big titted black chick.

Shit would never work.

>>1988123
We shall definitely talk about this as the time comes next year. Or IM me at any point, changed my trip to it, because I love talking to more Persona fans.

Sage because lol off topic

I actually have three dream cosplays. 1 of them I am planning on having by next year though. I swear to god I'll do it and do it well. I'll post all three of them starting with the one I plan on completing next year.

She from Hellsing.

>>1988182
Rem from Death Note.

>>1988184
And Elita-1 from Transformers.

>>1988184
>>1988184
You don't have enough of a man-face. Rem has a man-face.

>>1988188
Well, I suppose that's a compliment so thank you? Lol. I'm not completely sure what I will do for her face yet. I'm not sure what I will do for anything right now, it's a cosplay planned for the far, far future. I'm not nearly skilled enough to even start a cosplay so technical.

>>1988182
Dude, this cosplay has never been done in the history of Hellsing cosplay but I've wanted to see it done ever since I read The Dawn. If you do this, and pull it off...I will fucking love you forever. I will bow down to you. I WANT TO SEE THIS FUCKING DONE GODDAMNIT!!!1111!!11

>>1988186
Oh God good luck with that.

>>1987903
>>1987922
Fucking WIN. Want to see both so bad dude.

>>1988207
Oh umm...thank you? ^^;; I promise I will pull it off! I'm incredibly determined.

CP and the Planeteers

Nobody wants to be CP...

gutsman's ass

>>1984033

The feathers will cost a lot alone, plus the time you have to spend designing the wing base is annoying. I put many hours into it, and I still have to redesign one of the mechanisms in it.

All said, I love that costume. Very elegant to see and wear.

>>1982606
Actually no one would want to be Metalman. Unless they were comedic about it and screamed like a little girl when someone put one of their own weapon in their face.

The one on the left because I'm a guy and am to insecure atm to crossplay. The right one because I wont do it unless I can make it PERFECT and I'm not that skilled yet.

>>1988336
i see no reason why you couldnt do it! DO IT NOW!

My legs are too hairy for it...I'd never pull it off. ;_;

Prince George from Blackadder The Third. Will never do it because doing it accurately would cost well over a grand and I can't justify that.
Sydney Losstarot from Vagrant story. I'll never do it because I'm far too body-concious and I will never have the balls to have the Rood Inverse tattooed full size on my back (another dream of mine which will never happen).

Also:
- Priss from Bubblegum Crisis, both OVA and Tokyo 2040.
- Tina, Ayane, Helena, Kasumi, Kokoro, Lei Fang, Lisa and Christie from the DOA games, probably as many of their costumes as I could physically manage.
- Excel from Excel Saga
- Jo and Megumi from Burst Angel
- Henrietta from Gunslinger Girl
- Chii from Chobits
- Tira and Seong Mi-Na from Soul Calibur
- Nina from Tekken
- Chun Li, R Mika and Blair Dame from Street Fighter
- Merlose from Vagrant Story
- Jessie from Pokémon
- Quistis, Julia and Ellone from FFVIII
- Lulu from FFX
- Paine from FFX-2
- Rose from Legend Of Dragoon
- Aya from Parasite Eve
-Jill and Claire from Resident Evil (RE2 and RE3 versions, not the new crap)
- Nausicaä
- Regina from Dino Crisis
- Lara Croft
- Heather from Silent Hill 3, both default and the goth versions
- Sniper Wolf from MGS
- Theresa from Fable/Fable 2
- Guild Wars Ranger in Fissure Of Woe armour dyed white
- Ichigo and Zakuro from Tokyo Mew Mew
- Xing Cai, Zhen Ji, Diao Chan from Dynasty Warriors
- Melfina and Aisha Clan-Clan from Outlaw Star
- KOS-MOS

All because I'm a guy. If there was a way to change gender just for a day I would totally do it to do any of those.

Reasons why it'll never happen: me and my friend can't find the other five girls we need, because no one cares for old school CLAMP.

>>1988430
SHAVE THEM.

>>1988445
Aww yeah! That would be so awesome! I'd totally be in. I've had that image for forevvvvver.

Mighty fuck, how I would love to do this. Rendered impossible by Gluttony's size, manga Sloth's size, Envy's hair, etc. But I can dream...

>>1988377
>>1988440
Man up and wear a damn skirt IMO

I would love to be Matel... alas, I am 5'2 and weigh 115 curvaceous lbs. No amount of vertical stretch could make it work.

You'll laugh, but Aaroniero Arruruerie from Bleach. I've sorta got the Kaien thing going, but there's no way I can make a costume like that, and I've had no luck finding one.

>>1988494
I already do on a moderately frequent basis. It's the boobs, womenly hips, nice legs and being pretty that I lack.

Instead of the standard bitching about how I will never be Joseph Joestar, something else.

Dianna Soriel. This outfit.

It won't work because 1) fabric doesn't work that way, and 2) I'm not tall enough to look like anything other than a big puffy marshmallow fat blob in it.

I know she has other outfits but... gah.

>>1988425
;___; Don't taunt me like that. The only character I could do from MGS in Sniper Wolf.

>>1988514
think i've seen one once

>>1988541
Do it, you'd do Sniper so much justice. Also, cosplay Uma Thurman for shits-n-giggles, you're like a prettier version of her.

Ridley (full body)-too large
Twilight Princess Goron- too large

>>1988634
Where there's a will there's a way. I can see the Ridley in my head and how you could do it. have no idea how to explain the process though, or the materials to use :(

Ahahahaha . . . ha.

I would gladly make it for a guy who could pull it off, though.

>>1988044
>>1988048
I'll be going as the Aigis for the group that Hermes is in, and it would be wicked awesome to meet up with you guys there. Fortuna and Sati are kind of dream cosplays of mine, but Fortuna has no midsection and Sati is perpetually on fire. There are some lengths I just will not go to in the name of cosplay.

And now, to actually contribute to the thread, here's my dream cosplay. This one ranks at #1 in the dream category because absolute accuracy is impossible. Where to start? Those wings would be impossible to get around a convention, as each one is larger than Valefor himself. He has no arms. Holding them up in the wing position for more than a few minutes would probably make them drop off. Also, those legs. Those damn legs seal the deal. It stays a dream, sadly =(

#2 on the list is FFXIII's Shiva, but the difference is that that one is anatomically possible. Which means I will do it. Ohhh, I will do it.

It has a hole in it's chest. I'm female.

It'd look like shit no matter how hard I try.

>>1988634
>Ridley
You and me both, dude.

Uh, yeah.....

Valclav Havel in the Trinity Blood artbook.

I can't do it because I am woman, and I am scared shitless of the forty two arrows he has down the front of his cloak thing.

Chiaki and Fumika from Shigofumi... partially because I don't think anyone would recognize me and that would make me sad, and partially because I have no friends my height who cosplay. Any girls around 5'3 on the east coast keen?

Rose of Versailles, it's my dream. I want to be Oscar. However, the costumes are complicated to reproduce exactly. And the gold acessories, well... I want them gold. Same for jewels.

I got the whole group, got the place for the shoot, got a skit planned... BUT I need the money. Which I don't have. xD Maybe someday...

>>1987799
All I know is it was distributed with the preordered game in japan, and it exists. It would be like all my christmas' come at once to see some scans...

>>1984655
thisthisthisthisthisthisthisthisthisthis

late in the thread but i would rock the fuck outta bubbleman.
