Zero Cosplay

[llamperouge.livejournal.com]

Hello everyone,

I just recently attended Anime North 2008, I'm hoping to get some feedback from my costume so I can fix or improve it. It's my first time cosplaying at a convention, but it was a great time. I'm hoping to see some friends again next year.

There's a handful of pictures here: http://www.cosplay.com/costume/149074/

The rest are posted on my personal LJ, but any comments are welcomed. I just ask that bashing other members/cosplayers is avoided please.

To the moderators, if this post isn't allowed, feel free to delete. :)

I didn't go but one of my friends was one of the C.C.'s and I keep squeeing about your AWESOME R2 Zero. 8D I'd make the pants a little tighter, especially around the ankles. He should have a bit of a more streamline look. ^^ But otherwise, AWESOME! :3

Thank you! :)

I had to rush half of the costume, so I was worried, but I'll definitely be fixing up the boots, pants and minor areas around the jacket. :)

Geez, thanks for posting that. I wasn't aware of it.

Apparantly I'm a double, lol.

I remember seeing your group, you did wonderful jobs on your costumes. I wasn't aware you were there until after the photoshoot though, lol.

ASDF i wrote a looong comment but i accidentally closed the window u.u
k, IMHO, yours are one of the best male Zeros to date, mostly because you cared about lots of details and because your body suits perfectly the shape of clamp's noodle people (that's awesome!!!)
There's a few things i would fix from your costume btw, please take this in the correct way and don't be offended ;o;!!! I want you to improve and be the greatest Zero of all the world! (yay, Zero fangirl here! and now, YOUR fan too =X)

- try to fit more your pants, it's nothing hard to do and will improve a lot the looking of the suit
- try to make the collar of the cape a little bigger (not too much or you'll look like my ex BF's Zero cape, that looked like one of those cones that dogs wears when they got surgery xD) Wire and cardboard will help. Again, remind that the shape is like an "U", not conic (or you'll look like a dog too xD)
- Add a pair of square shoulder pads to the cape! that will be pure WIN!

and that's ALL i can say. in my scale, you have a 9 of 10 and you certainly CAN reach the 10!

Not offensive at all, I'm asking for people's opinions, good & bad.

I'm honoured by your words, it makes me happy that I can cosplay and do justice to a character I love. I'll definitely keep what you said in mind. Hopefully the next convention I attend, all the details will be fixed. :)

If I see you I would hug you :lol:
Your Zero is nice !! I think you're very tall too, which makes it perfect!
and i think you're cute ^o^

Nice mask XD.
Hmm, aside from the costume needed a little fixing (the pants especially) it's good!
