Hanna is Not a Boy's Name- 2011

[Harucha]

Hey guys! So as far as I can tell there will be no Halloween group for this year...Oh well.

But it was mentioned that having just a general cosplay group for HiNaBN would be cool, and I agree. We could do things during con and possibly have shoots or something before or after con if you guys so wished.

I promised I would start a thread on this today, so here it is! Let me know your character so we can have a rough idea of how many we have of each character, who we'd need, etc. Even if you don't have a character in mind yet, just saying you're interested is fine and you can get back to me later.

I'll mark you as red in the list if you are a possible and teal if you are a fo sho~

I'M GONNA BE HANNA, FFFFFFFFFFFFFYEAAAAAHHHHHHH!

So excited right now. Should be easy to stay in character as Hanna 'cause we're both so excitable. Heeeee~!

Hanna, Conrad, and Veser have accepted my friend requestsssssss on bookface, finally. Makes me smile.

[Malaria]

I, uh, don't really have it in me to join another cosplay group because mine already keeps me pretty busy, but I'd be really happy to go to a shoot and have hangouts with other Hanna people, if that's what you mean? :3

Anyway, I'm gonna be fem!Conrad and have a whole genderbent!Hinabn group with me, all being women and running amok and stuff. It'll be good times.

[ainekatt]

Tentatively maybe I kind of really want to be Toni. I don't think I'm tan enough. But. I am tanner than most of the cosplays I do. So.

I'll be honest, I just want her hair. So bad.

[CloudStrife32]

If I've got spare time, I'm really thinking of being Lamont...>>

[Malaria]

I'll be honest, I just want her hair. So bad.

I don't think any of us are gonna be critiquing you for correct skin tone. XD Go for it! Get that awesome hair!

I knowww I'm just hella anal about my cosplays. Like, I wasn't satisfied with storebought headsets, so I made one from goddamn scratch for my Scout cosplay. I strive to be as perfect possible so that if I screw up, I'm still damn good. /perfectionist

I HAVE NO IDEA HOW I WOULD MAKE THAT WIG, BUT I WILL FIGURE IT OUT FOR THE SAKE OF AWESOME

[sandrobotticelli]

This seems like an amazing group. I would attempt it if my cosplay list wasn't already full. I do want you to know that I'm looking forward to seeing you guys do this though, and that I'll want pictures <3.

[jaqua]

I'M GONNA BE FEM!WORTH AND OH MY GOD IF I HAVE A CONRAD AND A LAMONT I WILL DIE OF FANGIRLISH JOY

Just putting that out there.

[Felix]

I'll be Veser... at some point. Probably k-con, but I'll have to see.

[CloudStrife32]

I'M GONNA BE FEM!WORTH AND OH MY GOD IF I HAVE A CONRAD AND A LAMONT I WILL DIE OF FANGIRLISH JOY

Just putting that out there.

Then you actually might be in luck~ :3
Because Lamont isn't too expensive, so I more then likely will be bringing him to K-con.

[goatchild]

I'm the fem!Veser in Malaria and Jaqua's group. AND FELIX'S OH-SO-AWESOME VESER TWIN! *awesomesharkfive!* Assuming Felix for sure does Veser for Kcon which YOU SHOULD cuz we need to have our awesome sharky bro timez.

[Felix]

I WANT TOOOO...
but it may be difficult. because I'm horrible at time management. >_>;;;

[Harucha]

Gosh this has gotten a lot of replies ;; I'm glad people like this idea!

@Felix: Dude, if you can be Veser that would be awesome because I'm being Veser for Kcon and we can have a massive Veser takeover.

JUST IMAGINE THE SHEER AWESOME OF A VESER TAKEOVER.

@jaqua: You will defiantly have a Conrad. I'm all done with him. I'm excited for FemWorth too dhfjk

@Cloud: YES BE LAMONT AAAAH. I love Lamont and having Conrad, Lamont, and FemWorth would be hilarious.

@Sandro: If we get together, I will post pictures I promise.

@Aine: I totally understand the obsessive costume thing. |D You could always use a foundation or makeup to make your skin look darker if it really bothered you. Plus having a Toni would be so awesome I would die.

@Malaria: I don't think we'll be an official group or anything...just doing shoots or hanging out in costume or whatever. It's kind of up to the group. I'm hella busy too so a full on group would be too much for me.

@Tree: **** YEAH HANNA. /brofist. I'm so stoked to see a Hanna like woah. Imsa,d I;m going to have trouble being Conrad because I'm excitable too and not serious at all. ;; I smile all the time.
VESER HAS A FACEBOOK EEEEEEEE I HAVE TO ADD HIM

Sorry for the massive post bros. I just felt the need to reply to everyone because...idk. I like replying to everyone and making them feel like their post was read? ;;

[Malaria]

It'd probably be easiest/sanest to just organize a shoot/hangout time and let us sort ourselves from there.

I don't understand why people on this forum apologize for the length of their posts. XD OH NOOO YOU MADE ME READ A COUPLE HUNDRED WOOOORDS. 'S all good, dude, really.

[jaqua]

HEY MAN I LOVE LONG POSTS. So no worries xDD

Oh my goooooodddddddd I'm so excited for this group it's crazy. A LAMONT, A CONRAD, AND A FEM!CONRAD, MY LIFE IS COMPLETE. <33333333333

[Malaria]

That's almost enough cosplayers to handle all your pervy Worthness.

[jaqua]

ALMOST. A few more never hurts though. Oh man, Valeria, what are you going to do during Sak when all that pervy energy is directed at you?

[Malaria]

Get really great fanservice pics.
Also possibly piss off the entire fandom by getting women all over their favorite porny slash pair. B)

[jaqua]

HEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHE
I feel like we're attractive enough to make even the straightest yaoi-thumper sort of want.

[Malaria]

your laugh I can hear it in my head

Pffhahahah maybe

Harucha: A thought! (and on topic and everything too, jeeze) Maybe add 2011 somewhere in the title? So people skimming know that this isn't a cosplay group so much as this year's HiNaBN planning thread.

[soundninja12]

My friend Robert is looking very seriously at being Hanna.
(He's ginger and wears glasses. He fits the physical aspects at least )

[Malaria]

Pressure him enthusiastically. Tell him about the seriously chill bros he'll get to meet.

[soundninja12]

I'm pretty sure the deal is sealed. I'll have to get everything together, but when I do he'll do it.
Thus is the wonders of having lazy friends -.-

[Harucha]

@Sound: YES. That would be so great to have a male Hanna. At least it won't be too much for you to get together.

@Malaria: This was suggested to me once but it's sounding like a better and better idea the more it's suggested. I don't want people getting confused, so I'll do that. Thanks!

[Malaria]

Sarge: At least make him pay up for supplies and stuff. D:

Harucha: Haha, we will peer pressure you into the NORMAL way of doing these on these forums. How dare you attempt to do things in a new way.

[Harucha]

@Malaria: I didn't know there was a normal way. I mean. I'm such a rebel you can't stop me.

But I will relent for now.

[TreeNostalgia]

Ohgodguys, I love you all. LOVE YOU ALL.

Having a guy be Hanna will be great! Yeah, we can Hanna it up and totally be awesomebros. /brofist And we're gonna need all the Hannas we can get if there will be so many Vesers. Not that sharkysharks are a baaaaaad thing... >.>

Also, Odin. We need a Gallahad to keep us all in check. I mean, where would the comic be without Imhotep?

HAPPY HALLOWEEN, GUYS.

I would really like to have Hanna's Riddler costume. That would be way cool.

[soundninja12]

Malaria: You remembered my name! Not that I didn't think you would, or something, I just got really excited because you're so cool and you know my name *feels sooooo special*

I talked to Robert and he said he'd pay for it His hair is turning brown though, so we're going to dye it when the time comes!

Also: I just miiiiiight do a {...} cosplay. Maybe. If I have time.

[Harucha]

@Sarge: Excellent~! He should pay for it xD

OH MY GOD. If you could do a {...} cosplay, that would be beautiful. I never see any {...} cosplayers and having one would be so awesome.

[soundninja12]

I WANT TO MAKE PEOPLE HAPPY.
Put me down! It's not a fo sho, but there's a high chance I'll do it

[Harucha]

Don't feel pressured or anything! /// But I'll put you down as a possible, okay? Eeeeeee this is so exciting~

[soundninja12]

I talked to him and he was like "Definitely doing Hanna"

I'm glad you guys are so happy about it <3

[Malaria]

Sarge: ah >///< I mean, I thought your nickname was really cool, so I was like "I wanna use that!"
and I think you're really cool
so
mutual admiration party~

Also heck yeah Zombie~

Harucha: You dirty irrepressible punk.

Tree: No man you got it right. TOO MANY VESERS gettin' their feet all over my nice clean Swedish couch.

[jaqua]

Tree: No man you got it right. TOO MANY VESERS gettin' their feet all over my nice clean Swedish couch.

Frickin' shark seals, man. Losers.


OMG A ZOMBIE AND A MANHANNA?! THE GLEE, IT BURNS

[Malaria]

Tree: No man you got it right. TOO MANY VESERS gettin' their feet all over my nice clean Swedish couch.

Frickin' shark seals, man. Losers.


OMG A ZOMBIE AND A MANHANNA?! THE GLEE, IT BURNS

I totally misread that and was like HOW IS JAQUA GETTING PAST THE CENSORING but it is not a real cuss word.
Maybe I'd like them more if they learned to keep their dirty feet on the floor and off the neuroses-inducing furniture. :I

Seriously what kind of order/cleanliness neurotic buys WHITE FURNITURE? That's just begging for horrible stains.

[soundninja12]

YOU GUYS MAKE ME FEEL SPECIAL.
*dies of joy*
I think the only problem I can see with doing {...} is that he has an amazingly irritating wig. I might be able to get tas110 to help me with it, though, as it's similar to his Sweeney Todd wig.

Yeah, seriously, Connie, what are you thinking? Why do you wear white all the time anyway?

Other than that I really want it to be kcontime again~! Also, anyone got any suggestions for where to get my Hanna wig? Just curious. I can figure it out on my own, but I am also pretty terrible at that.

[Malaria]

Sarge: Hand sewing wefts~ It's your destiny~

Tree: It's a bold fashion statement.
It also makes the deathly pallor of my face look more stylistic and less ghoulish.

Hanna's wig seems like it'll need a lot of styling no matter what you do, so I'd check out Arda Wigs. Their wigs are great for styling along with generally being great. http://www.arda-wigs.com/
Cosplay.com has like three or four wig brands on their site, though their customer service isn't always the best: http://shop.cosplay.com/
I've heard good things about Epic Cosplay, though I've never bought one of their wigs: http://www.epiccosplay.com/
There's also Amphigory, everyone's old standby. They don't sell a lot of wigs for styling and not a huge range of colors, but their style selection isn't bad: http://www.amphigory.com/wigs.html

[sandrobotticelli]

FFFF-!! I hate that all the cosplays I want to do are TALL PEOPLE. I just realized I have an outfit for Zombie but he's so tall and I'm just really short. I'd look stupid. XD;

But I'm so glad you guys have a Zombie! I'm so excited to see it 8D

[Malaria]

WHAT NO
YOU ALREADY HAVE THE CLOTHES THEREFORE YOU SHOULD DO IT
HEIGHT NOTWITHSTANDING

[sandrobotticelli]

I'd still feel rather silly. I only did Russia because my group needed it for the skit XD;

Or maybe I should do a fem!Zombie? o.o I've never done a female cosplay before even though I'm a woman (Akito barely counts...)

[Malaria]

I think Zombie'd still be pretty tall as a lady. XD
But hey, if you're doing it for Kcon, Hashi's gonna be in Denmark, so we'll be short a fem!Zombie for the PoSms' bent Hanna crew.

[sandrobotticelli]

I think Zombie'd still be pretty tall as a lady. XD
But hey, if you're doing it for Kcon, Hashi's gonna be in Denmark, so we'll be short a fem!Zombie for the PoSms' bent Hanna crew.

Oh for sure, but I feel I could get away with a shorter height as a woman x3;;

Oh she is? I thought she couldn't do it this year! That's cool though~

I'd need to come up with a cool fem! design then. Too bad I'm not a creative individual. I'll think of something though <3

But I could do either one. If you'd prefer a male one I could do that. I'd just be pocket sized xDD

[soundninja12]

BRO, I AM A SUPER MIDGET AND I AM DOING A ZOMBIE
WE JUST GET TO DO SUPER FUNKY HEIGHT THINGS

Sarge: Hand sewing wefts~ It's your destiny~

Oh goddddd D':

[jaqua]

Ffffffff Rebecca you should be fem!Zombie for Kcon with us :'DD THAT WOULD BE SO COOL. No pressure if you're full up or whatever but seriously man. Seriously. SERIOUSLY.

[Malaria]

Sarge: It's only twooo. You'll be fine. XD

[sandrobotticelli]

Ffffffff Rebecca you should be fem!Zombie for Kcon with us :'DD THAT WOULD BE SO COOL. No pressure if you're full up or whatever but seriously man. Seriously. SERIOUSLY.

Ok : D
I was thinking about some possible ideas while driving to and from classes this evening. The only thing that stumps me is how the hair should look for a fem version of him. I already have some ideas of modifying the outfit itself...

[goatchild]

@Sandro: One of my favorite Zombie cosplayers is tiny, but that doesn't stop her from being amaaazzziiinnnggg. *_* So height is totally not important, cuz whichever Zombie you do is going to be absolutely amazing like all of your costumes are. <3
You should totally do fem!Zombie with us though! Hashi's fem!Zombie wig is going to have really long hair (cuz we already have the wig) and we're just going to do little wings for the hair tufts even though I know they aren't actually wings. It just works better with the long hair. But if you do a short-haired fem!Zombie, you should totally do hair tufts. : D

[sandrobotticelli]

@goatchild: Oh, well that makes me feel a bit better :3. Aww, I'm glad you think so! ;n; I think all of yours are amazing too, btw
Oh ok! I was thinking long hair. Was she going to tie it up in any way or just have it down? Layered? bangs? . I have some ideas for the hair tufts <3
I'm going to think about which version I want to do. But now I'm really excited and I want to do it really badly <3 <3 <3
