Title: General RPG characters photoshoot
Post by: PaladinCecil79 on June 16, 2008, 03:44:00 pm
Who all here is interested in a photo shoot for general R.P.G. characters? I've seen so many people cosplay as R.P.G. characters, that it surprises me that general R.P.G. shoot haven't become a common thing at cons, so I plan to start holding them at future cons and would like to hold one at this year's Kumoricon as well.

Yep. They count.

What about Chuck Norris. Though you might not see him, he's basically a diety in the Barrens.

Okay, sure.

Hmm...a general RPG shoot? It's definitely intriguing...seeing how lonely my Norn costume was at SakuraCon this year... XD;

Post by: Kahlan4 on June 18, 2008, 09:05:43 pm
that would be awesome, i'll try to be there if it doesn't conflict with other photoshoot things ^.^ we could stage some awesome random battles... *ponders*
Title: Re: General RPG characters photoshoot
Post by: PaladinCecil79 on June 18, 2008, 09:33:11 pm
Now there's an idea. We should definitely work on that.  :)

I'm game. I will be wearing Albel at least two days. I'm thinking Sunday and Monday.

last year during the final fantasy vii battle i guess someone summoned darth vader into the battle... i think i remember him running around there, it was pretty epic ^.^
Title: Re: General RPG characters photoshoot
Post by: nikkiolie on June 18, 2008, 09:46:29 pm
that would be awesome. People tend to get way into character at cons, that is one reason it is so much fun.
Title: Re: General RPG characters photoshoot
Post by: PaladinCecil79 on June 29, 2008, 10:42:50 pm
If we're gonna have various RPG characters doing battles, it'd be a good idea for everyone cosplaying as an RPG character to post who they plan to cosplay as. That way, we could come up with some great battle ideas well in advance. I plan to cosplay as Judas from Tales of Destiny 2.

Title: Re: General RPG characters photoshoot
Post by: PaladinCecil79 on July 08, 2008, 08:39:17 pm
I've come up with a few ideas that'd be interesting if there'll be anyone cosplaying as these characters. The ideas are:

Moogle vs. Chocobo
Kefka vs. Sephiroth
Vincent vs. Yuffie
Tifa vs. Aeris
Title: Re: General RPG characters photoshoot
Post by: kissarmy on July 09, 2008, 08:52:59 am
lol that woudl be funny... we need a toberry in there somewhere

Are Kingdom Hearts characters okay? (Or are you tired of us? :3)
Title: Re: General RPG characters photoshoot
Post by: nikkiolie on July 31, 2008, 10:50:08 pm
tonberry vs moogle

XD that would be great.

They sure are. Any character from any role playing game is fair game.
Title: Re: General RPG characters photoshoot
Post by: EveofAbyss on August 01, 2008, 04:53:54 am
Are we actually going to have a Kefka Palazzo this year? That would make for a great face-off with Sephiroth. Kefka pretty much is the predecessor to all that Sephiroth is, after all, heh.

And we need to get a Cactuar in there somewhere. Cactuar vs. Chocobo vs. Tonberry vs. Moogle in a Final Fantasy Smash Bros. Brawl! lol
Title: Re: General RPG characters photoshoot
Post by: nikkiolie on August 01, 2008, 07:17:30 pm
cactuar vs. tonberry? Also would be epic. I think the tonberry would win......maybe not cactuars are so damn fast >_<

I killed one once in ffX and I didn't need to fight anything for several trips to the item shops. I also gained like five levels.

And Moomba, but Moomba would get eliminated fairly quickly.

Chance I could be a Star Ocean character? Is that ok?
Title: Re: General RPG characters photoshoot

For sure! Star Ocean is definitely an RPG.

I'm coming as a Rocket agent, but she's not from the games directly (one of the lesser-known comics).

Kaede (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v236/BlackjackGabbiani/kaede3.jpg) from How I Became A Pokémon Card. She's made of win and awesome and snot.

what do you think about legend of zelda charectors?

I can't imagine that they wouldn't be allowed. Link is a very well known name, but I can't say yes or no for sure.

Haha, sounds like I might be, cuz for one of my other cosplays, I'm not quite to the sewing skill level for making, so I think I will be Peppita!

Well, I havent officially decided when, but if everyone wants a RPG photoshoot, I could always do it on that day, since I'm not part of any specific cosplay groups this year.
Title: Re: General RPG characters photoshoot
Post by: nikkiolie on August 11, 2008, 02:20:15 am
But the day that want to do it is the same day as the naruto shoot v.v

Oh sad. I'm sure I'll figure it out closer to the con, and I'll let you know when I decide to do it.
Title: Re: General RPG characters photoshoot
Post by: nikkiolie on August 12, 2008, 02:27:54 pm
As it gets closer we can figure everything out. I could always change just for that photo shoot
Title: Re: General RPG characters photoshoot
Post by: EveofAbyss on August 15, 2008, 06:11:55 am
So this shoot has been confirmed for 12:30 on Sunday, right? That should be good for me. I will probably end up wearing one costume for this shoot and then rushing back to the room, changing to the other and heading to the Final Fantasy Photoshoot. I think I'll wear my Azul for this one. Would anyone object to me cosplaying as a Final Fantasy VII: Dirge of Cerberus character for this? Anyone think it doesn't count as an RPG?
Title: Re: General RPG characters photoshoot
Post by: nikkiolie on August 15, 2008, 09:47:46 am
I may end up doing that......but we are planing ice skating for 12:30.....so maybe not x.x

I am hoping not.....but I don't know
Title: Re: General RPG characters photoshoot
Post by: EveofAbyss on August 15, 2008, 10:30:17 am
Oh, well hopefully not. I know that'd take a massive dent out of the day. That's why I didn't follow my original idea and apply for a walk-on entry in the contest, I just couldn't sacrifice that much of the day.

I think thats a good time. Yes yes. Cuz I planned to wear my Star Ocean on Sunday. And I dont mind if you wear Dirge of Cerberus. Just watch out for a big hug.

Ok I will switch out of Temari to Albel before this shoot so I can be in it.

That'd be a fun picture, haha  :D
Title: Re: General RPG characters photoshoot
Post by: nikkiolie on August 16, 2008, 09:58:47 am
And then I guess we can switch it around so you are winning >_>

but I'll deny that its me ^_^
Title: Re: General RPG characters photoshoot
Post by: EveofAbyss on August 16, 2008, 10:00:35 am
We could do that, one of each, heh. (Though we both know you'd be the real victor ^_^ ), Azul is big and strong, but slow; Albel looks nimble and probably pretty swift and agile, so you could probably beat me no problem. Tie my shoes together with your speed and have me trip and look silly, lol.
Title: Re: General RPG characters photoshoot
Post by: nikkiolie on August 16, 2008, 10:21:32 am
That is one of Albel's many talents. He can do this continuous attack till his stamina runs out, top that with MP damage and he can take down an enemy before his stamina runs out  ;D
Title: Re: General RPG characters photoshoot
Post by: EveofAbyss on August 16, 2008, 10:23:17 am
That's pretty fancy. I'm gonna check that game out whenever I get my Playstation back up and working properly.

So, it's looking like I'm gonna be in the park for the better part of three hours.....I hope I don't die, lol. I am gonna be there for three photo shoots back to back, with just a little time between the last two when I go back and change. That's gonna be one packed afternoon, lol.

Just so you know, my Peppita fails at life, but I'm gonna wear her anyway... If you dont shoot me for destroying her.... TT_TT
Title: Re: General RPG characters photoshoot
Post by: nikkiolie on August 24, 2008, 08:02:44 pm
Did you get my suggestions about her boots? I think you could use uggs (or fake ones), they come in pink and if that doesn't work you can always paint them ^_^
Title: Re: General RPG characters photoshoot
Post by: katayamadono on August 24, 2008, 08:23:33 pm
I looked for sonme uggs, but they are much tooo expensive for my budget and time frame. I totally swung it and made them out of cardboard...
(https://www.kumoricon.org/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi299.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fmm292%2FFrenchFrieBoogie%2FBooots.jpg&hash=e2cc3e5afe81acd806782cc72ad04574bfafb4f4)
I didnt go for accuracy... Promise they will be much better by Sakuracon.

Anyway.
Is the photoshoot...? When?
Title: Re: General RPG characters photoshoot
Post by: nikkiolie on August 24, 2008, 08:27:19 pm
Sunday at 12:35.

Those don't look too bad. I kinda like them ^_^
Title: Re: General RPG characters photoshoot
Post by: katayamadono on August 24, 2008, 08:29:31 pm
Haha, they make me laugh, cuz when I walk, they jiggle, but if you stand next to me, I tend to move nervously when still and you can hear them squeek. I'm sure they have much more personality then ugg boots. Haha.

K. I'll make sure to... be awake... @_@ I'm really excited. Has there been an arranged meeting place?
Title: Re: General RPG characters photoshoot

Since the con's only a few days away, we should do a roll call of all the costumes we'll be wearing to the shoot. That way, we'll have time to come up with some ideas for character battle ideas. I'll be cosplaying as Judas from Tales of Destiny 2.

Here are a few ideas we could do for character battles:

Blue Chocobo vs. Ganon
Garnet vs. Albel
Pepita vs. Azul

If anyone else has any ideas, it'd be awesome to hear them.
Title: Re: General RPG characters photoshoot
Post by: Mitsukai Mizu Amaya on August 28, 2008, 11:02:37 pm

I should bring trusty ol' Bahamut then! Wait... he destroyed Alexandria... and killed my mom... erm...

HOW 'BOUT ARK?! XD
Title: Re: General RPG characters photoshoot
Post by: katayamadono on August 28, 2008, 11:23:23 pm
Oh my goodness. I'll try to battle, but I hope you guys arent going for accuracy, cuz I've barely played the game before, so I only know Peppita fights with her tassle things... @_@
Title: Re: General RPG characters photoshoot
Post by: BlackjackGabbiani on August 28, 2008, 11:29:09 pm
I'm sorry, I have to pull out of this since otherwise I'd have about 5 minutes to get out of my Oikawa costume and change into Kaede...and then do the reverse right afterward for Epcar's autograph session.

Oh well.

Those sound fun, I'll take on Pepita! Azul basically lumbers around and slams his cannon into the ground, so I'd probably get whooped, but it'd be fun anyway, heh.

Where was everyone? I went into the park and didn't find anyone there.
Title: Re: General RPG characters photoshoot

I was near the entrance hoping it would stop raining. I couldn't go out in the rain in my costume. I kept watching the park seeing if people were showing up but I didn't see any organized group, so I assumed it was canceled.
Title: Re: General RPG characters photoshoot
Post by: PaladinCecil79 on September 01, 2008, 11:09:25 pm
I'll schedule this shoot in the future, but in the future, I'll make sure we have a back-up plan in case this happens again.
It definitely sucked that it rained at that time.
Title: Re: General RPG characters photoshoot
Post by: EveofAbyss on September 01, 2008, 11:14:55 pm
It couldn't have been more inconvenient. It rained exactly from 12:00 to 1:00pm, right when there were supposed to be two epic shoots back to back. Usually I love the rain, but that was just mean, heh.
Title: Re: General RPG characters photoshoot
Post by: Serika on September 02, 2008, 12:59:35 am
I would have gone, but in the Tales of... shoot right before, I was pretty much pushed out and unphotographed(Shirley is SO unloved), and I didn't want to waste my time hanging around watching more popular characters being photographed. 8D;;;

Plus it was raining, which none of us imagined would happen.  Seriously, 10-20% chance both of the days it did rain...
