a cosplay confession of sorts

Postby Mr.wolf » Fri Jul 29, 2011 10:07 pm

i, like many of you fellow anime addicts, love cosplaying!

i love getting photographed at cons,i love helping bring the character im cosplaying to life and helping others get more enjoyment from the series, and i love meeting other cospaylers and getting to know them and enjoying our collective hobby!

...the only problem is i suck at it! :( yeah i know you’ve heread this song and dance before, but sadly this is the truth for me. now just about every cosplay iv done (garra from naruto shippodun, the comedian from the watchmen,the spy from team fortress 2,mugen from samurai champloo, America from hetilia are the all the ones i remember doing ((i may have forgotton one)) have been less than spectaclery, all the ones that i made from scratch(mugen and the comedian) were pretty...let’s say underwhelming, so what i do is buy a relatively looking costume(America and garra) and basically modding it some ways are simple such as getting a bomber jacket for America or creating a gourd for garra, and ultimately when i do go to a can i do have fun, but i always try to aim higher but never quite get there(pulse all my cosplays are a bit on the simple side) but i get cosplay envy when i see the REALLY good ones and the halfway decent ones and despair at my lack of talent top off a healthy dose of ADHD,OCD and a host of other lovely acronyms cause me to obsess over my problem, better cosplays and my imperfections causing a helping heaping of mental torture


so i beschee you my fellow addicts please assist me with anything you can, tips for improving my cosplay, drugs to help with my insanity ;) or anything a would great! Thanks!

P.S this is nothing really serious its just really annoying so threes nothing to really get worried about.

Everyone sucks at something until they learn. Assuming that you live near a craft/fabric store then you should go there because most of them have classes and those should help.

I have a feeling my first cosplays are going to suck too XD I'm sure you look better then my first cosplays will most likely look.
