Nich Artri Posted March 31, 2009 Posted March 31, 2009 How I spent my spring break! Crossplaying as Chun-Li XD It was rather fun; I got tons of hugs, high-fives, cat calls, and compliments (and mostly from girls, believe it or not)! I'm already planning for the next convention in September! ^^ More pics of different characters. Cheers! -Nich Quote
Peppermint_M Posted March 31, 2009 Posted March 31, 2009 Conventions are fun. I went to Memrobilia in Birmingham (UK) on saturday. We saw one disturbingly good crossplayer dressed as a Death Note character (which I am not familiar with). Conventions are fun, even more fun in cosplay. I have cosplayed as Rinoa (FFVIII), Tifa (FFVII Game outifit) several steampunk outfits a dieselpunk outfit and a postapocalyptic (ish) outfit. There are some pictures on the net but I am not sure if I can link them in (will investigate later). I always get a few compliments and photo requests and when I'm a specific character people will recognise me. Me and my friends go to about three or four cons a year in Bristol, London and now Birmingham. This year we are missing the May trip to London due to money and the general "going downhill" of the convention, plus Bristol Comics is in May for which we are dressing as Batman characters, in October we go to the MCM Expo London and this year we are The Endless (from Sandman) Death, Delirium and Destiny. Plus we sometimes cosplay when we go to cities to shop which goes down well with the real non-conformists (if not the fake ones) and small kids seem impressed by costumes. I love the atmosphere at cons, not to mention the goodies. I would love for there to be some lego related ones that I could find out about in time and get to. Quote
Nich Artri Posted April 2, 2009 Author Posted April 2, 2009 Very nice! I love steampunk cosplay. There was a very good steampunk cosplayer with a huge cannon at the con; I practically begged him for a pic. XD So many cons you can go to though! @_@ Lucky! Fun stuff going out in public in costume...I ate lunch in a crowded restaurant in mine...luckily I was with friends! ^^ Yes indeed, cons are awesome...looking forward to going to more! Good luck with all of yours! :3 Cheers! -Nich Quote
