beautifuldreamer 0 Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 Hiya! This year's Otakon is going to be my first ever convention (yay!!) and my first time to cosplay. I am at a loss for what I want to be though. I'm about 5'6 with highlited hair, green eyes, and a curvy figure. I wouldn't be able to dye my hair, but I might could come up with a wig. What characters would you suggest for a newbie with a budget of $100 or so? Thanks for your help! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
~Ametatsu~ 0 Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 for $100, you might want to do a closet cosplay.they're cheap. also, a photo would help. or is you want tons of input, there's a "who do i like like" thread at cosplay.com Quote Link to post Share on other sites
feytaline 0 Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 Also, what kind of shows do you like? It's the most fun to dress as a character you really like or identify with. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
No_Kookies_4_U 0 Posted April 29, 2008 Report Share Posted April 29, 2008 (edited) You might want to grab some random thing and put them togather. My 1st costume was done that way it came out good Edited April 29, 2008 by No_Kookies_4_U Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StarStealingGirl 0 Posted April 29, 2008 Report Share Posted April 29, 2008 I just advise you to do something you love! My first cosplay was Kid from Chrono Cross (last year) and it was under $100. I made most of it myself, which helps to lower prices. Just think about characters you like that you kinda look like and go from there! I'll be here if ya want advice from a new cosplayer...and I, hopefully, can help. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
