Ranma 1/2 cosplay?
« on: August 21, 2007, 01:34:28 pm »
Hey anyone interested or that has an appropriate costume--in having a little Ranma 1/2 gathering?  So far we have four people who will attend, me included.  Characters we have so far are:

Ranma Saotome(boy-type)
Akane Tendo
Genma Saotome (human form)
Soun Tendo

Anyone is welcome to join us, we'd be so happy if you come.  Any character from Ranma 1/2 is fine!

I heard there was a Mousse coming and if we're lucky we might get a girl-type Ranma. I can't speak for them all though. It's just a rumor. I'll add it to my photoshoot list to try and get more attention.

Coming as Akane! Just bought the wig today, and I'm currently looking for a red bucket to use as a prop. I found my pattens and I'll be sewing on the uniform tomorrow afternoon, since I don't have work. The dress is about halfway done now (skirt is pretty much finished), and I just have to pick out which fabric from my boxes I want to use for the blouse.

So we really are going to have Soun? That's awesome! Was Genma able to fix the "issues" with his gi?

I may not be able to come. Which sucks majorly. It looks like I might not be able to afford the transportation.

I'm all bummed because my wig looks awesome! And I got a bucket and everything, and Sunday off from work. Nertz.

Update again:

Ranma 1/2 gathering: Sunday at 1pm.  STILL Meet at the Hilton Lobby. 
We have 5 folks so far confirmed (as far as I know)

me--Ranma Saotome boy-type
Klint--he said he'll be Principal Kuno instead of Soun Tendo
MHHornfreak--Genma Saotome (human form)--he's getting a gi tomorrow!
Big Chris--Happosai

maybe's so far:
Ranma Saotome girl-type
Mousse

Sounds like Kumi-Chan won't be able to come (NOOOO, AKANE!!!!!!), but since we already advertised it we'll still have it and see who shows up.  I seem to remember a girl-type Ranma and a Shampoo last year so you never know :)

Man, I wish I had known about this!  I was at the con as boy-type Ranma.

Hey, wait a sec, are you the guy I talked to who was from the Seattle area?
