Thanks! :3

You're welcome!

Even if your character wouldn't even have dog tags it is still neat to have some! If anyone wants some next time I do an order through there I can get them. Just let me know what you want and pay me back whenever

Mei Long · « **Reply #452 on:** January 29, 2010, 01:38:08 pm »

^ Dude, that sounds insanely awesome. Please let me know when you are going to order from there again. =)

Not sure what they would say though? Would this be while he was working for ArmsTech? Or - hahaha, Philanthropy dog tags, that'd be amusing.

And are you goin' to Sak? Or heck, if you're ever around one of Nikki's shindigs I could pay you back then.

Now, to figure out what it would say on them... Yay more Otacon accessories. XD He doesn't have enough of them.

Trumby · « **Reply #453 on:** January 30, 2010, 12:50:57 pm »

Haha, yeah I had an easy time figuring out what to put on mine since he's a military (even though he's technically a PMC) guy. I probably won't be doing an order for a few weeks so you've got time!

And yep, I will be at Sakura-con.

Trumby · « **Reply #454 on:** January 31, 2010, 04:05:03 pm »

DOUBLE POST

Got into contact with someone who is going to make my Rat Patrol shirt. Will have that by sometime in May

Hisuji_Bash · « **Reply #455 on:** February 11, 2010, 12:36:13 pm »

I look forward to your shirt~

I like how the one he ended up kiddie cqc-ing was Liquid. That's foreshadowing right there. =P

Hisuji_Bash · « **Reply #458 on:** February 23, 2010, 04:05:37 pm »

LOL, poor Liquid.

WORKOUT! I'm going to beef up for Meryl! I want to get in shape, I just did a 35min work out today and I plan on doubling that next time. My plan is to do weights on mon, wen. Aikido on tue, thur, and Sat, Sun is what ever I feel like doing. I'm pumped, Also I'm cutting my wig no matter what this weekend. Cosplay time is a go!

Lastly, let me know if you know any awesome workouts plezz. :> domo

Mei Long · « **Reply #459 on:** February 23, 2010, 09:03:34 pm »

You gonna get DEM SHOULDERS???

Though why are you doubling up your workout the second time? Unless you're already in fit shape and used to it then by all means - have at it. XD

I keep trying to do cardio five or six days of the week for at least thirty minutes... it's not hard... I just get so bored with one or two things but I don't have the resources to do fun things that are also a workout. =/

Wanna #1: Swimming. Oh how I miss it.

But yes - COSPLAY TIME GO.

Hisuji_Bash · « **Reply #460 on:** February 23, 2010, 09:35:13 pm »

I plan to have DARN GOOD SHOULDERS. But not as awesome as hers. lol I think I'd scare people.

The point of doubling is to do one rep with 3bls, and another rep with 5bls. It makes you body work extra hard on the last ones, so your body doesn't get use to the routine(as I get better I will up the weight).

I love swimming!! Dose the hotel have a swimming pool? if it dose we should all go swimming!

I will post pics soon! woooo~

Mei Long · « **Reply #461 on:** February 23, 2010, 10:46:47 pm »

Oooh, I misunderstood, I understand what you're saying now. =) That's right, that's a good way to do it. S'what I did when I had access to a weight lifting room.

Oh my gosh, we should!!! The hotel SHOULD have a swimming pool... I don't remember if I saw one though. However, that hotel was sooooo confusing I'm not really sure what all they had! Haha.

Trumby · « **Reply #462 on:** February 24, 2010, 12:47:05 am »

I really want to start working out again..I am just soo lazy <.<

And yep, there is a pool and weight room at the hotel. It was on the 2nd floor, there was a door between the railing looking over the lobby and the elevators, that's where it is.

As for my costume..still haven't really gotten anywhere yet with the guns <.<

I think I'm going to buy all my tac gear in April when I get my bonus from work

Mei Long · « **Reply #463 on:** February 24, 2010, 02:03:17 am »

Pool... on second floor... my mind is blown.

But in all seriousness... I think I remember that door! Man, that area was particularly crazy. I don't think I spent more than 20 minutes up there in total during the entire con.

Hisuji_Bash · « **Reply #464 on:** March 01, 2010, 04:37:44 pm »

Well I might make a sol badguy swim suit, but I'm not sure yet(cuz it would be skanky). Either way, I'm going to go swimming!

On another note first wig cut done! just need to clean it up a bit. Also need to dye it slightly more brown, its too red. Then I just need to style it! woot!

NARUNIK · « **Reply #465 on:** March 01, 2010, 04:39:38 pm »

wow. You look great.

Now practice Meryl's "walk."

Oh. My. Gosh. Y'know - I don't know if I'll be able to afford the full Bridget outfit for Kumori so the idea of doing swimwear for Bridget just freakin' cracked me up. We should totally be swim wear buds. 8D;; Hahahahahaha.

And nice wig!!! Yeah, definitely needs more brown, I look forward to seeing the result!

Hisuji_Bash · « **Reply #467 on:** March 02, 2010, 01:05:18 pm »

Thanks ppl, once I finish the wig I'll post again.

Yes! GG Swimsuit buddies!!!! XD Now I have to make it. And now I really need to workout! :3

Mei Long · « **Reply #468 on:** March 02, 2010, 04:35:22 pm »

Hahahahaha, same here (working out). So, I made that post at 2:30Am with a brain frazzled by Biology homework and now I am fully coherent going "why the heck did I ever suggest I'd make a BRIDGET swimwear outfit? Bridget is like... undercover as a chick! Darnit." XDDD

I'll figure something out, haha.

Hisuji_Bash · « **Reply #469 on:** March 03, 2010, 12:38:34 am »

Just a few ideas for swim suits. I'm not sure what sol I should, do if either. and I thought i'd try Bridget, but he's hard to come up with a suit that is girly, yet for a man... lol

Mei Long · « **Reply #470 on:** March 03, 2010, 01:17:05 pm »

Those are cute!!!!!!! Yeah, Bridget would have to be some sort of shirt-shorts combo............

And I really like your Sol designs. I think having a black one piece underneath would be really nice along with the red two piece. That way it'd be attractive but not super skank and it'd follow Sol's design well.

Just gotta remember to make it all outta swim friendly material! =)

Trumby · « **Reply #471 on:** March 03, 2010, 11:49:26 pm »

Oh you crazy kids and your GG. I should totally do swimsuit Johnny and still wear the balaclava and sunglasses...lololol

Mei Long · « **Reply #472 on:** March 04, 2010, 12:49:53 am »

DUUUUUUUUUUUUUDE.

Do it. That'd be insanely awesome.

Hisuji_Bash · « **Reply #473 on:** March 04, 2010, 12:30:00 pm »

DDOOOOO EEETTTT!! XD

Trumby · « **Reply #474 on:** March 05, 2010, 12:08:37 am »

I'd really just need some khaki swim trunks

But then I'd be alone in my MGS swimwear, haha. That'd be so weird! Hanging out at the pool with a balaclava on, haha

Mei Long · « **Reply #475 on:** March 05, 2010, 06:22:13 pm »

XD That'd be true... I dunno how I'd be able to do Otacon swimwear... can't wear my glasses while swimming and the rest of his stuff is... clothes. Haha.

Kinda wanna see ya hangin' around the pool with a balaclava on though and watch everyone's reactions.

Trumby · « **Reply #476 on:** March 05, 2010, 11:37:09 pm »

Oh man, hahaha Otacon would totally have to just be normal swim trunks with his lab coat on. Some glasses without lenses to complete the look.

Mei Long · « **Reply #477 on:** March 06, 2010, 12:26:09 am »

Hahahaha. And there you have it - swimwear Otacon! I think aside from GG swimcosplay there's gotta be MGS swimcosplay now.

Hisuji_Bash · « **Reply #478 on:** March 11, 2010, 04:04:46 pm »

Yes, now we gotta do a MGS swimsuit! X3 OK! MGS for this con, and GG for another(or year after). OH, btw... I think Maki might not make sniper wolf. :/ So I need to work to get new members! I'll wait for a definite no until I take her off tho.

Trumby · « **Reply #479 on:** March 12, 2010, 12:18:34 am »

Haha I was just messing around..but if you guys want to actually do it we can, haha

And aww sadface

Ren, Otacon is going to have to be the bad guy if Maki doesn't do sniper wolf

Mei Long · « **Reply #480 on:** March 12, 2010, 01:13:29 am »

Hahaha, Rule #1: All mention of cosplay can, and most likely is, taken seriously.

But duuuuude, sad face indeed! What's keepin' her from bein' sniper wolf? D8

.... And Otacon the bad guy??? That sounds like the makings of a MGS parody!

Hisuji_Bash · « **Reply #481 on:** March 12, 2010, 11:22:10 pm »

Well if I do the other con I thought Meryl swimsuit would be cheaper/easier(wear a tanktop and buy camo swim suit bottoms)... Maybe have a gun holster on me. AND Trumby would look hilarious, especially if you keep your balaclava on! So heck yes! XD Otacon would so be one of the guys with the sunscreen on his nose. Or if you wanted to be artistic, find or make swimshorts with a anime or robot stuff on it. :3 It would be cute!

As for Maki, I'm the one who likes mgs. So shes not sure she wants to spend the money on a cosplay person she doesn't know. Otacon your our bad guy now! :p

Mei Long · « **Reply #483 on:** March 13, 2010, 12:02:46 am »

Y'know, I was TOTALLY thinking of putting sunscreen on my nose. I burn like a mofo anyway so it would work out. XDDDDDDDD

Okay, am I missing a joke here? Because I don't think I'm making the right connection to why Otacon is the candidate to be a bad guy? I have an idea but it's... faint.

And yeah, I can understand that. It's a hell of a cosplay to do w/out attachment to the character.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Trumby · « **Reply #484 on:** March 13, 2010, 12:29:43 am »

Ohh I see! I totally figured Maki was an MGS fan. I don't blame her, as I don't really like to cosplay from stuff I don't know either. Looks like we just have to make her into a fan

And Ren, hahaha, no, you're not missing a joke...unless I am missing one too. We just need a bad guy and for Otacon to be a bad guy would just be lolz.

Also omg otaku swim trunks would be awesome for Otacon! And you're right for Meryl, that'd work pretty well. And the only problem with me taking the balaclava off is I don't have the same color hair as Johnny at all so..

Oh I just sent the moniez to the girl who is doing my rat patrol shirt so I will have that before AX (hoping to have the costume ready for AX).

Also FFFT @ that picture o.o

Mei Long · « **Reply #485 on:** March 13, 2010, 01:52:33 am »

Otacon being the bad guy reminds me of videos I've seen where his face is on other characters during scenes and doing badass stuff. Soooooo odd but hilarious. XD

The thing with otaku shorts for Otacon... what shall be on them? For custom I could print stuff on but I dunno what would be water proof. XD (I do wanna swim eventually...) So regular swim trunks might be more effecient, and cheaper since I already own a pair, haha. They're green too so they fit in with his MGS2 outfit.

RAT PATROL SHIRT! You'll definitely have to take pics and show us when you get it. 8D

Trumby · « **Reply #486 on:** March 17, 2010, 12:50:36 pm »

Oh man, we should totally make Otacon masks and do stuff like that. Would be so lols

And true, I didn't even think about the whole water proof thing. And heck, if you already have some that would work stick with those! Not spending money ftw.

..though I did just spend money on some stuff for Johnny. Bought my kneepads, gloves, some sunglasses (they aren't the orange mirrored like his but whateva, they look similar), pants, leg holster, and an ID holder. Instead of using a lanyard/clip for my badge I'm just going to put it in that so it goes well with the costume

..also I'll make sure to take pics when I get the shirt. I'm also ordering all my tac gear next month. I was about to just go for it last night but I just bought my airplane tickets for AX so gotta wait.

Hisuji_Bash · « **Reply #487 on:** March 17, 2010, 09:54:58 pm »

Yeah, once I put my check away I'll start buying Meryl's gear. Trumby, where are you buying the vest at? @ Mai long, yeah wear green ones! I tried to find cartoon swimtrunks, and failed. lol, all of the choices were awful. unless you want my little pony... LOL

Lastly, we should all bring squirt guns. :3

Mei Long · « **Reply #488 on:** March 18, 2010, 01:43:45 am »

Otacon masks would be hilarious... I get to wear one too! Otacon wearing an Otacon mask... no one will suspect a thing.

Green trunks it is! Despite how tempting my little pony is, haha. It'd suite him if he was going as the grand fairy king of the kingdom of evermorrow... XP

And I second squirt guns!

Trumby · « **Reply #489 on:** March 18, 2010, 02:24:05 am »

I'm going to be buying all of my tac gear from Diamondback Tactical. They have the rest of everything I need except the shoes and balaclava. Here's a link to the plate carrier on their site. http://www.diamondbacktactical.com/product/Diamondback-Tactical-Fast-Attack-Plate-Carrier,33,101.htm

Also I am thinking of using this as the balaclava. I like it because it looks like the correct type of material and the mouth part can be pulled down, but at the same time that part isn't accurate <.<

Omg my little ponys trunks would be horrible lolworthy, haha. Totally not nerdy though

Also heck yes, squirt guns would go good with pool cosplay!

Mei Long · « **Reply #490 on:** March 18, 2010, 01:26:15 pm »

Yes, my little pony =/= nerd. hahahahha.

That balaclava looks really good! And man, I was lookin' at the other stuff you guys are needing to buy and was all "Maaaaaan, why can't Otacon need this badass stuff too?" and then I saw the price and went "Hurray for being an Engineer!"

Which brings up something I've always wondered. Hal is an engineer... is he really wearing a labcoat? Or is it simply a white blazer?

Trumby · « **Reply #491 on:** March 19, 2010, 02:14:44 am »

Haha thanks, I think I might just go for that one just for ease of use if nothing else. And yeah, don't even get me started man! My tac gear is going to be about $315 all together. It is going to look awesome though

And actually, you're right. His coat is actually just a blazer o.o I found a figure of him from MGS2: http://www.ghoulgear.com/shop/components/com_virtuemart/shop_image/product/01b14e7659733b922554d83174a509f5.jpg

Also here: http://i93.photobucket.com/albums/l60/Nathaneal_2006/mgs2/chara_otacon.gif

Mei Long · « **Reply #492 on:** March 19, 2010, 04:22:19 am »

Hahahaha, yes, it will look very awesome.

And yeah, labcoats are usually used in professions where there are biohazards like if you're a chemist or doctor... Hal is an engineer... They're rarely used there. And he's never seen in a "labcoat" ever again - both his other outfits are just regular coats! I mean, not even when he was being an engineer for an actual organization was he wearing "protective" gear.

Also, when I originally bought the labcoat it was so hard to find an accurate one because there were so many unique, un-lab coat like elements in the design. I thought, at the time, that it was just that creative license that so plagues cosplayers...

I'm really leaning toward a blazer though so now there's a fire under my seat to buy one... hmmmm... moooooooney money money.

Still no where near $315 though so I shouldn't complain.

2011 will be my spendy year if all goes well!

I believe I can flyyyyyyyyyyy...

So, Nikki was wanting a list of MGS cosplayers for the TD thread - how accurate is the front page, ya think? =)

Quote from: Nikki

The plans for Kumoricon are King of Fighters, Cave Story, Baccano!, and MGS yeah? I'll need a list of who from the group is doing what from the MGS people :3

Trumby · « **Reply #496 on:** April 09, 2010, 12:37:49 pm »

Ah, I think that will really only apply to us TDs so just us 3, unless Maki does decide to actually go with it.

Mei Long · « **Reply #497 on:** April 09, 2010, 03:40:26 pm »

Yeah, I sorta realized that later. Ya think after all those "read the instructions first" tests in school I'd actually... y'know... read stuff thoroughly? Haha! Thanks!

Trumby · « **Reply #498 on:** April 09, 2010, 11:55:25 pm »

Haha seriously, geez!

Got my gloves, glasses, pants, and kneepads today. the gloves fit perfect. So awesome. I also got 2 FOXHOUND patches if you want my other one, Rheanna! That way we know our patches match

Holster and ID holder were out of stock though..gotta call them and see if it is worth waiting on those 2 things <.<

Hisuji_Bash · « **Reply #499 on:** April 12, 2010, 01:18:06 pm »

Yeah, just us 3. >.< I will get more ppl.... somehow.

Sure! I'll take the patch. I can pay you back whenever you want. Once I check my account I'm buying stuff! I'll probably buy most the same stuff you do Trumby. It's just the guns I'm worried about. ;>.> I need to look up stuff on how to make guns.
