Hold me back.

I wish I lived closer or I'd try to go. I've heard it's a really good con, but I don't live anywere neary Maryland. I did just go to A-kon in Dallas in June, though. It rocked! I'm a regular at that con. Do you cosplay?

[lain2k3]

I'm going. Cosplaying as Spike Spiegel. The costumes not as easy as you'd think.

[LamerPanda]

I'm waiting until I can drive on my own.

I'm going to bring a camera and take pictures of bad cosplayers, so if you're grossly overweight or have no costume designing skills, I suggest you not go in, oh, two years. ^-^

laink2k3 = My best friend cosplayed as Spike Spiegal though I'm probably cosplaying someone from Shaman King... hopefully Tao Ren. Let me try to find a picture of him. I think he's cosplaying as Yoh Asakura this year. The only thing he complains about cosplaying Spike Spiegal is the fact he's only 5'5" while Spike is very tall.

lamerpanda = Hmm, the worse I've seen was the 60+ year old guy cosplaying as Sailor Mars and Eternity Sailor Moon. One of my friends just showed me on her livejournal about a hairy fat guy cosplaying as Fay Valentine from Cowboy Bebop. Even if it is considered 'wrong' by society standards, people have their 'reasons' though my judgement tells me I do not want to know those 'reasons'.

I've seen some pretty scary stuff at cons. I think the scariest by far was a really fat older woman dressed as a girl getting raped by tentacles. She was wearing a tan body suit and had all these tentacles glued to it in interresting places. I have to admit.... it takes a mondo set of balls to walk around in something like that. I definately coudln't do it, and I'm disappointed that I ran out of film before I could take a pic of her so people wouldn't think I was lying. I've cosplayed as Sailor Mars from Sailor Moon, Kagero from Ninja Scroll, and Zakuro from Tokyo Mew Mew.

I hope someone cosplays an Uziga drawing! I could get them for my music video!

My (ex) girlfriend and I cosplayed as Kenshin Himura And Mai from K.O.F (Damn I Miss Her)....well anyway I got into a fight wit some guy who looked lik shinji Ikari I followed him to his hotel and socked him in the face.(he tried to hate on my game while I was hitting on this asian girl who looked like a real life rei ayanami). Love sucks......

Probably they have it at the site where people would go from convention to convention to take pictures of cosplayers. I forgot what it is called again.

I've been so busy preparing for this con that I haven't paid attention to this board for a while.
