How does this happen every year? I think, I've got months and months and months before SDCCU, I have all these ideas and all the time in the world to execute, then OH 30 DAYS UNTIL CON???? NO BIG DEAL, IM FINE.
So, I need your help slowing my roll and picking a damn direction!!!!
I'm assuming I'll be at comicon for 4 out of 5 days? I'm not sure yet, but I'll plan for 4 cosplays to be safe.
So, here's where I'm at!
I will be wearing this cosplay:
Silk Spectre with latex by JaneDoe Latex, because A. its' perfect. and B. it's perfect.
So far that is the only 100% sure thing,
I have a few other premaids that I can go with if focusing my efforts on 1 brand new one is more reasonable,
and they are:
Alex DeLarge, easy, AWESOME, and comfortable.
Babydoll, again, already done, easy, but I saw sooo many last year, is it the new slave Leia??
I also have a favorite that I haven't busted out in while. The costume Is in slight disrepair, but I could easily fix it together, or try to get a little more crazy and have it re-done in latex or something? Either way, Major Motoko:
And I always have my good ol' chain braikin, dragon havin, dessert walker D.T. (who is quickly becoming not my favorite character any longer..

So that's it for the ready to wear selection. As far as the new ideas go, there are a few!!
Queen Amidala:
Originally I was thinking THE Queen Amidala that we all think of when we hear the name, big red dress, crazy headpiece, but I loved this dark outfit too:
I realized however, if I were just walking around that would be easy, but I'll be working in the booth and that would be a WHOLE LOTTA costume to manage in those tight, hot, and busy quarters.. So then I thought, how about the Padme arena outfit1?
I think this is the most con friendly Amidala for sure:
Next up, Queen Nehelenia, from Sailor Moon:
Super hot, super gothy, and I could group play with Neptune for a day!! My concerns are however, again, that's a lot of dress. And although I'm at the right place for nerds, I'm afraid her character might be a little too obscure for recondition.. BUT! I had an epiphany, I'm dressing up as a fake person anyway, I could bend truths and make her, her own scout uniform!!
It would still be the character, for those who get who it is, but it would also be a little more manageable, sexy, and easy for others to go OH, GOT IT! (which isn't everything, but is nice!)
Next yet is a really simple one, that I think I'll be doing for Halloween anyway, Matilda:
This one could be a real winner, great movie, easy costume, favorite actress.. etc..
The last two options are kinda funny... I don't know what married me to the idea of being dudes.. (maybe it was brewin's UHMAZING Hulk Hogan costume) but here are my kinda hillarious choices...
The Monarch
No not sexy raspy throated babe Dr. Girlfriend, The Monarch. I love this character. Definitely wouldn't be sexy, like at all. But I'm kinda okay with that. (but definitely complicated)
And lastly, The Goblin King.....
He would be relatively simple, lacking in facial hair, but still awesome and funny..
So! To refresh, the choices are:
pre-made category
Major Motoko Kusanagi, Ghost in the Shell
Khaleesi, GOT
Alex DeLarge, A Clockwork Orange
Babydoll, Suckerpunch
new (unmade) category
Padme Amidala (arena outfit), Attack of the Clones
Queen Nehelenia (scout outfit), Sailor Moon
Matilda, The Professional
The Monarch, Venture Bros
Jareth, Labyrinth
So Please!!! Cast your vote! Pick your favorite 3, because lord knows, I cant! hah!
And... If you want to help chip in for cosplay supplies, I have prints and a few stone earrings that I've hand cabbed for sale at VenomBlackbird.etsy.com!
Not to mention, I have a couple new images that rock! Like zis one:
And this one:
(the wolf prints however will have the majority of the proceed going back to the wolf rescue, Project Wildsong!)
Oh and don't forget about ONYX! by the wonderful @anemona, still up in MR for tu ojos!
I can't wait to see what cosplays you guys pick!!! ^_^!
