Has anyone ever cosplayed for an anime convention? If so, how long does it take to make a costume. I haven't done it in about 3-4 years and it was only once, but I think I remember it took me about an entire summer to come up with a costume. (But it was easy, I dressed up as Shippou from Inuyasha.)
Also, I can't really buy material anymore because Rag Shop closed down and I'm unsure if Micheals sells any cloth. Does anybody know easy cosplays? |

It your depends on how complex your costume is. A typical Naruto cosplay can take one-two weeks, but something from KH can take months.
Are you sure there aren't any fabric stores around where you live? It's kinda hard to work out of pre-made materials, unless you want to do really really simple stuff like L, and there are always like fifty L's per con nowadays. >>; As for who to cosplay, pick someone from a series you like; it makes no sense to cosplay a character who you don't even know. You can also check out the Cosplay Newbies section on C.Com, they have a LOT of suggestion threads. Aaand then you can always get commissions online. O: |
