This. But, I still like the idea of a cosplay thread. I really need to get some extra cash for materials, and then I could totally get into it. Until then, posting to watch.

I assume you're talking about revolver ocelot, and the name of the kind of hat he wears is a beret. Just look for a random red one of that style, and you'll be fine.

Also, yes. It's pretty much a known fact that there are plenty of women at cosplay conventions that dress rather scantily, whether that's a positive or a negative is up for your interpretation.

I went cosplaying once. Dressed up as problem sleuth, and lost all respect for the homestuck fandom.

The range of cosplay quality is enormous. There are clouds of people who think that t -shirt + jeans like their character are good enough, and people who clearly spent weeks of work on something.

Also, public transport is interesting. At first you're just getting lots of dodgy looks, but as you get closer, you start seeing other people dressed up, though I did end up getting very poor directions from a Luigi.

Due to the initial reactions, I only worded it that way so I didn't start some kind of sexism argument in this potential cosplaying thread.

Anyways, I've never really done a lot of cosplaying. I'd do it more often if I lived near events, but even then I'd have to think about it because I honestly cannot stand a majority of the people who claim they're apart of a certain fandom. I've always wanted to do a S.T.A.L.K.E.R. cosplay though, which would probably just be consistent of old military surplus stuff and a fake gun. Oh, and the vodka. Never forget the vodka.

Honestly your conventions sound somewhat different from my past experience. There wasn't really anybody dressed so scantily it was that noticeable.
