Title: J-rock again?
Post by: kaoru on February 24, 2005, 11:17:30 am
Anyone doing J-rock cosplay this year? Maybe we could set up a group.  :D  I'm going as... Kaoru (Mitsu To Tsuba/Tsumi to Batsu).

I might go as Cage Kaoru as well...  :mrgreen:

Oh. I love the outfit... That'll look great. ^_^- You wouldn't mind if I took your picture at the con, would you?

No. I wouldn't mind at all. I'm a camera whore, so I enjoy pictures.  :D

Awsome, beacuse I'm bringing my Dad's digital camera to the Con, so I can take lots and lots of pictures. :)

oh, that costume looks fun. Do you have any other pics of it, because I have a lipservice dress that looks somewhat similar...

Awesome! I want a digi camera! I'll make sure to spiffy up my make-up skills so I don't look like a goober when you take a picture.  :D

:) cool... I think I'd have to alter mine a bit to get it looking like that, but I'd imagine that lipservice would have a different vinyl dress that would be a bit closer (I mean they have so many different kinds...)

I will have to keep that in mind for the future.. ;)

Oh, and I am SO bringing my camera to the con. I just bought a Oly E-300 for my digital photography class and I love it! (then again for $999 I'd better... ^^" ) As a matter of fact, I'm thinking of taking some portraits while I'm there and maybe selling some prints. I figure I could just use like Shutterbug's printing service or something (you email them the photos and pay for them, then go to the store and pic them up.) It's pretty nifty and reasonably priced.

Oooh, Maybe I'll find some cheaper outfits and buy a digi cam for the con. Oooh! So many choices! >.<

Sure.  :D

I'm a camera whore (Meaning I really like having pictures taken of me and being infront of the camera). Just come up and ask. I'm really nice so I wont yell at you or hurt you.  :lol:

I wish I could do J-rock cosplay too, too bad I can't pull it off.

oh yeah, and I'm terrible with make up, everytime I try eye make up, I always end up looking like a panda
Title: J-rock again?
Post by: kaoru on February 26, 2005, 06:28:53 pm
That happens to me sometimes. J-rock make-up is hard to get right.

are you planning to make the costumes yourself or are you going to buy them?
Title: J-rock again?
Post by: kaoru on February 26, 2005, 07:20:30 pm
I'm making them all by myself.  :D

Wow, you sure are talented, I had some costumes made, and they end up being too big, I can't even fix that.  I feel like a stupid person.

I hope I do them right. I'm sure I will... I just get impaitent when I sew.  :lol:

Just gotta stick to it

Post by: Irnogs on February 27, 2005, 10:31:23 am
Hehe, yeah sewing (and make-up as well) just takes practice. I wasn't so good at either when I started (for sure), but I just used those experiences as tests to see what I needed to improve on. :) You know K-Con is still 6 months away... plenty of time to work on things... ;)

I managed to perfect his make-up style for the main outfit I'm doing.  :D

Someone told me I could look like Toshiya.
So I was considering making it one of the costumes I do.
As much as I love J-rock, I hope to see that there are some
well done costumes out there. Because when I went to AWA
there were too many half-assed ones, and it make me a little
disappointed for my first con...

But I can't wait to see your finished one. :3
