NorwesCon (http://www.norwescon.org/default.htm)
March 20-23, 2008
DoubleTree Hotel Seattle Airport
Seattle, WA
Taken from the site:
Norwescon is one of the largest regional Science Fiction conventions in the United States. While maintaining a primarily literary focus, Norwescon is large enough to provide a venue for many of the other aspects of Science Fiction and the interests of its fans such as anime, costuming, art, and much, much more.
Guests of honor:
Dan Simmons (Author of Hyperion and other award winning novels)
Ciruelo (painter/illustrator well known for his paintings of dragons)
Naomi Novik (Winner of 2007 John w. Campbell Award for best new writer)

sounds like fun, its too late notice for me, maybe next year.
-
I know there's people from Cloud City Garrison (501st Legion) going up to it..but I'm going to Sakura-con the next weekend instead.
-
aw i wish i would've looked at this sooner... it sounds like fun.. maybe next year.
we should have a group of cosplayers go next year, that'd be awesome ^.^
-
And you can cosplay as KAhlan, cause that fits right in, don't it?
-
*gasp* i didn't even think about that...
and this is why i love you <3
i totally wanna go now, like really really bad. so we're going next year. no questions about it ^.^
-
ggghhchcgchchoookay!
-
lol
and you will be dressing up as...........???
-
Ummm, you tell me? What do I know about scifi and fantasy....except Final Fantasy. Hmmm, lessee....I would probably have to cosplay as Cthulhu or some other Elder God, maybe Nyarlathotep. I just don't know anything scifi-ish at the moment, I guess.
-
Reeealzy? I know nothing of Sword of Truth (even though Kahlan-gf has tried countless times to tell me about it, lol). But if you say so, then dummit, that is good enough for me. ^_^
-
ooo yeah, but he'd have to shave his head... and neither of us want that...
but he really would make a great jagang... *ponders* how to make the head looked shaved while it isn't really but make it look real.....................

I'm seriously considering a Leeloo cosplay for a sci-fi con.

The one with the white shirt, orange thing, gold pants and black boots.
You must have seen her 'bandage' outfit lol
-
Oooooh okay that sounds a heck of a lot better lol

This one: http://farm1.static.flickr.com/125/355430025_98414cfb34_o.jpg
That would be a neat cosplay to see. I remember seeing someone cosplaying as Plavalaguna (the blue lady) before..was crazy.
-
yep, that's the one.
btw I absolutely love the Diva's singing. ♥ haha, and I wouldn't doubt that was crazy! man!
-
What are your thoughts? Diva's singing: actual voice or synth? Cause there are some notes and such rapid fluctuation of notes that it is quintessentially inhuman, but absolutely beautiful, that is for sure.
-
I thought it was both... I have the song though, yaaay.
-
Yeah, I figured it was both, but just thought I'd pose the question. ^_^
-
It would be pretty sweet if that was a natural voice though... :o
-
haha, maybe if a person had elk/ape vocal chords surgically imported, lol. It'd be sweet though.
-
Okay yeah that's what I figured lol *whew* for a moment there I was like "totemo you're growing up too fast!" XD
-
Well I don't think anyone would seriously consider cosplaying as bandage-strap Leeloo, lol. It'd be instantly forbidden (I'd reckon).
-
I've seen a few actual good bandage cosplays... it just requires a really nice body and proper coverage. lol
-
Lol yeahh..well you can also wear those things...what are they called...where it's like a really sheer cloth that from far away looks like you're not wearing anything but close up you can tell...it's what most ice skaters use. I don't know what it's called though lol
-
There was a girl who used that "nudesuit" fabric in her cosplay of Sailor Moon from one of the season finales.
It was in 2004 and the sent her back to her room to change because it was "innappropriate".
They didn't notice when her friend came back down wearing the exact same thing though.
So just be careful with what staff see you in a costume like that.
-
Ouch! I guess it's best not to risk that then
-
Hahaha, I don't think I'll go that far. The Leeloo outfit I'm considering shows an appropriate amount of skin in my opinion.
