I need help choosing cosplay character!
 
Konnichi'wa!
So I'd like to start preparing for a costume to cosplay in for a convention in the summer-time, but I cannot decide what character to cosplay as! :crykitty:

Everytime I find an anime character, she either does not look even remotely like me or her costume is too complicated for me to sew. Sure, people say you don't have to look like them, but in order for it to look convincing you must have similar features. So, I need some suggestions that include costumes that are fairly simple to sew and look somewhat like me. I don't mind wearing wigs or coloured contacts, but I at least need a character with similar facial features and body shape! I am 17, so I don't mind showing some skin, but I don't wanna look like a whore or anything. :/

Also, I like shoujo, josei... and I am also partial to shoujo-ai manga :marusmile: Comedy anime is ok, but the only shounen series I like is Evangelion.

Although you can see me in my profile pic, I shall provide some more photos so you can see me better.

Maybe Yuzuki Eba from Kimi no Iru Machi,
Suzuka, from Suzuka, or Miki from Suzuka?:rolleyes:

My first choice would go to Miki...

Does it have to be an anime, could it not be a video game character too?

I could see you as an almost perfect Aerith from FFVII. OR a really good Garnet from FFIX.

Miki is very pretty! Although I've never seen Suzuka... I've heard of it before. This is a good suggestion, considering sailor/highschool uniforms look fairly easy to make. Arigatou!

Does anyone know of main anime characters that have long brown hair?

I'm not a gamer, so it would prolly not be a good idea. :/

If you try hard you might pull off Asuka.

You could also try Integra Hellsing.

Hell no! She'd make a better Quistis than either of those two.
