| Have never cosplayed before but really want to start at cons I may go to in the future. It'd be really easy if there was a legit place to order/buy cosplay but I also like the idea of making it myself if it didn't seem so difficult at first glance. I mean really, for someone who's totally new to the world of cosplay how do I get started and go about either finding a place to get cosplay from or making it myself? Looking to cosplay as Jin from Samurai Champloo (I've got sword, hair, and glasses covered, I have no idea what to do for kimono) and Illumi Zoldyck from Hunter x Hunter at some point while I still have the long hair for both lol. |

Forum said: Protaku94 said: Maybe follow Jessica Nigri for more information <3 "cosplay" 95% of her costumes are cleavage, so I assume if you really want to make cheap costumes you should ask her. |

| I'm going as Zacharie from the game OFF for my first ever cosplay at a comic convention. *Yeah, I know, but I don't really have a comic character to go as* The biggest concern is screwing up the 2 masks he has, as I an unsure how to best go about it. Ah hah hah. |

| I've never cosplayed neither but I think you just have to look for the design of the clothes you'd like to make, from manga/anime/character sheets, buy pieces of cloth/es that suits with the original clothing and sew them, or buy a piece of clothing similar to the one you'd like to cosplay and modify it. As for weapons, depending on the rules, you might have to stick with painted/laminated cardboard/styrofoam. |

| there's a lot of patterns for kimono online, ask friends, or even cosplayers and con groups on fb, they're all quite willing to help and offer advice |
