TOO MANY CHARACTERS |
I apologize that there's not much awesome stuff to report on until.. NEW YORK COMIC CON HAPPENS THURSDAY! MUAHAHAH. Wish I could be there. : (
In the mean time, Nerd Caliber has this great article that talks about 'Why People Can't Tell You What to Cosplay'
I've seen this happen a lot of times on forums where people ask 'eh.. I dunno what to cosplay, suggest me something'... and.. people don't really know what to say. Here's why.
In summary of the article
1. We honestly doesn't know what you look like
2. We also probably DO NOT want to know what you look like (unless you really are smokin hot, your photo would be everywhere)
3. The internets folks don't know you in real life
4. We also don't know how skilled you are crafting wise
5. We don't know how much $$ you're willing to spend
6. We don't know how much time you're willing to spend crafting, tailoring
7. We don't know when your nearest con event is
8. THERE'S JUST TOO MANY FRICKIN CHARACTERS TO CHOOSE FROM.
9. People also don't really want to read a character profile of you.
10. End of the day, be really honest with yourself - read my previous article 'Know your look and cosplay to it'
Great article by Shauna Leva - aka Sheik : )
