Just curious what other people wish they could do O_o. I was reading through AirGear and came across

And realized I couldn't make the costume but wish I could -_-. Yes that is a guy -_-

Been playing a lot of video games since the beginning of summer vacation... m'replaying FFX, and it would be the awesomest thing ever if I could cosplay Tidus. Ah well, dreams shall remain thus.

There are some gravity defying costumes in Glass no Kantai that I'd love to see someone wearing. I seriously doubt I would, though, because it would be near on impossible to make them wearable without filling the innards with helium to keep them from sagging... Oh, but they are pretty....

I'd love to be Boogiepop Phantom but I don't think I could make it D:

I wanted to cosplay as Kadaj this year...and then I realized a few months later that I wont be able to make it because I don't know HOW to make it! D:

plus I can't order a costume because I can't afford it! XD

I need a job. Those things are useful. yeaaah..

OK, now I've just GOT to find that website I saw a while ago. The fabric is painfully expensive - we're talking about $1500 / YARD - BUT, it's this computer controlled fabric that allows you to show any image you want on it. The original idea was to use it as camoflage because you could wear it and have it look like whatever's behind you - and since the "color" of the fabric is basically a moving image from a movie camera, the fabric would change as you moved or stuff behind you moved such that the wearer of the fabric is essentially invisible. So instead you could use an image of a bonfire (with a cute face on it).... and bada bing bada boom... calcifer.

Unfortunately, it'll take about 4 -5 yards of fabric to cover you completely, so that's 6000-7500 for the costume. Gee, it's more than your car is worth, isn't it?

Ghaaaaa... there are times when I really wish I were obscenely wealthy....

article where I first saw the fabric
http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/11.08/pwr_invisible_pr.html
and the invisibility article = http://www.cnn.com/2003/TECH/02/07/japan.invisible.ap/

oh, and it seems I mis-remembered the cost, it seems it's "only" 200-450 / yd:

site for Luminex: http://www.luminex.it/index.html

Still a wee bit expensive, but it would work and would be a COOL thing to wear.

No! Not creepy at all. He's always been my favorite. Who wouldn't want torso-sized hands with giant claws on the ends?

As for the question at hand, I'd love to somehow pull of Anima from FFX/X-2. It is just the most amazing, original, terrible creature I've ever coem across.....but making it, and making it look good, requires skills and enginuity I just don't have, lol

Hell_Kitty · « **Reply #16 on:** June 28, 2007, 04:47:09 pm »

Something else I would like to try to make would be OmniMon from Digimon the movie(Along with many other parts of the series)

I wish I could cosplay as Hyatt from Excel Saga. But I don't want to cut, dye, and curl my hair all wavy and purple like hers, and I'm not tall or fit enough. >.<

Kotoumi · « **Reply #18 on:** July 03, 2007, 03:33:41 pm »

I'm not doing it this year, but I reeeeeally want to be Pharaoh. xD

Pharaoh form Yu-Gi-Oh! O____o!

It's like my dream costume right now, as embarrassing as that may be. xD;

ps I'm a fan of the Japanese, uncut Yuugiou! Duel Monsters. Not the 4kids...thing. Japanese version =/= friendship&rainbows.

And ooh! That'd be a great costume! It'd take a lot of work but I know you could do it. (I love that manga, amazing)

Sasami from Tenchi Muyo or Misha from Pita-Ten.

That's OK Jaz, the Eva Unit 01 cosplayers have the same problem. You'll be the proper size for our skit!

I think it would be fun to be a Goomba from Mario but I wouldn't want to be my full height. If I successfully make a costume out of Hermes the Motorrad though, I'm not counting anything as impossible!

Hmmm.... maybe if I put the seat of a chair on a skateboard and sat crosslegged..... yeah.... Maybe next year!

RemSaverem · « **Reply #31 on:** July 13, 2007, 07:44:38 pm »

for several years now i've had a dream of having Dash make me a cosplay from a very specific CCS ep that I could also wear to SCA events. however, i've never come up with the $. but i heard a rumor maybe we are having some kind of workshop on how to learn to sew? that would help me TONS. i spend WAY too much on costumery

Cain Knightlord from Trinity Blood.
