Cosplay Models!! ^-^
I was wondering if their were other cosplay models here at Model Mayhem. I met a few already. But please all cosplayers are welcome!! I want to meet you all!!! ^-^ Oct 29 05 08:52 am Link Obviously, I'm not one, but having seen cosplay pop up all over the place lately, I am interested in shooting a bit of it. Saw an article on cosplay in the workplace on one of the blogs yesterday. Boingboing, I think. -Don Oct 29 05 10:50 am Link Yeah, cosplay is really great for photography. If you would like to photograhp a cosplayer some time, I can recommand you to go to a Anime Convention. There you will find many cosplayers who would love to be model for you. Oct 29 05 11:12 am Link Oct 29 05 11:44 am Link yup, I do cosplay. I often show as a bunny. Oct 29 05 03:47 pm Link There's *a lot* of cosplayers on here. More than omp by far. And they're a lot better networked on here as well. http://www.myspace.com/cynthialeigh (Yep, I'm a cheater =p) Oct 29 05 11:09 pm Link Thank you for the link!! ^-^ oohh...

May 15 06 10:05 am Link I so want to do it May 15 06 10:45 am Link I haven't done cosplay modeling as of yet, but I used to cosplay occasionally! I wish I had more time to make my own costumes, it's a lot of fun May 15 06 12:56 pm Link ~Raises hand~ ^__^ I'm one, yes. Cosplaying is such a creative and fun thing to do! May 16 06 01:30 pm Link ...Stacy makes me *snicker*.. I've been wanting to shoot some cosplay models.. But I've got to admit.. I'd MUCH rather see what DBN does with one..

Take your pick. . . May 16 06 08:36 pm Link I'm a cosplaying photographer! I do model shoots _and_ I cosplay! I've dressed up as various video game and anime characters... it's fun! At a con, sometimes I can't decide if I want to dress up and forsake the chance to take photos. At least I'm lucky enough to do private photo shoots with some friends who have fabulous costumes. I've dressed up as: Kenshin (Movie and TV series versions) Laguna (FF8) Kanti (FLCL) Zero (Megaman Zero) Vivi (FF9 and Kingdom Hearts) Celestine (Ah! Megami-sama Movie) Hotohori (Fushigi Yuugi) Edward Elric (Full Metal Alchemist) Unfortunately, some of those were before I started taking photos so I really only have pics of me as Zero and Vivi... the rest are lost in internet limbo, out on the web somewhere.

May 17 06 02:31 pm Link I am also a cosplay/costume photographer... and I am into the costuming aspect also, although not as much from an Anime perspective. May 17 06 05:32 pm Link what is a cosplayer?

Definitely looking forward to it too! May 19 06 08:26 am Link I'm not modelling my Chun Li outfit until my thighs are rock solid. It'll be a while. I'm interested in the dressup aspect of cosplay, but since I don't sew... well, I don't do a whole lot. May 19 06 03:44 pm Link I've been shooting custom cosplay and cosplay in general for 4 years....see my port... Jul 15 06 12:32 pm Link *Raises hand* Cosplay rocks my socks ^_^ It's way more fun to model then a lot of 'conventional' stuff to, 'cause if you really get into character you can get some amazing shots! There's a fantastic Final Fantasy X Lulu costume on eBay at the moment ^.^ Huzzah for cosplay! *Peace signs anime style* Feline x Jul 16 06 08:31 am Link It's not a specific character, but I did the "Anime Schoogirl" thing one weekend. The photos aren't exactly traditional professional style, but I absolutely love them. Basically, the photographer followed me around with his camera as I bounced about the mall, the school, the coffee shop etc. There were only a few actually posed shots. It was a blast. I can't seem to find another photographer who shoots like this, and the poor lighting/focus that results is why, but I absolutely love these photos, and wouldn't change a thing about them. Anime Schoolgirl ^_^ ~Keeper Jul 16 06 12:18 pm Link i'm definetely into cosplay. i really want to do a cosplay shoot. I want to cosplay as Lulu from FFX, and as Faye from Cowboy Bebop. I'll get around to getting costumes together for each of them one on these days... n.n Jul 16 06 12:24 pm Link I'm guilty of having a thing for costumes. I love the dynamics a costume and dramatic make-up can add to photographs. I guess there's a little girl trapped in me who just loves to dress up. I love shoots with a theme and some of the ones I did in costume are the ones that stand out most in my mind, were the most fun, and had some of the most interesting images. I can't sew though. I'd love to team up with a seamstress and show her some of my sketches I drew for costumes when I was 16 and dreaming big. hehehe. Jul 16 06 12:39 pm Link In southern california? Into cosplay? Check out my cosplaylolita.com project! Jul 16 06 04:33 pm Link ...Stacy wrote: Yeah, but I'm not going to be doing this naked stuff forever. Everything gets old eventually. Jul 16 06 05:14 pm Link OHH! I adore cosplay! I wish I had more time to put into the kind of costumes I would like to make. So far I've only done two. My first was Reika from Cosplay Complex (love the irony ^_^) at Oni-con '04 where I won judge's choice, and the second was Sexy no Jutsu from Naruto at A-kon '05. Such fun! I would LOVE to do a cosplay shoot one of these days. If anyone near Houston wants to set one up, think of me! Alisha Jul 17 06 09:43 pm Link I love the idea of cosplay photography. I really want to get into that. I'm going away this weekend, but when I come back I'm going to shoot with someone and hopefully do some "Bloodrayne" pictures. Jul 17 06 11:40 pm Link I am a costume photographer and also a cosplayer. Costumes are my favorite photography subject. Hopefully I will meet even more cosplayers at future conventions. Sep 17 06 01:51 am Link I think we could only get more cosplayers on here if there wasn't dumb rumors floating around that semi-pros don't want to shoot cosplayers. (Don't ask me where this came from, I originally thought the only thing holding cosplayers back where the GWC's that always pop-up at cons.) Sep 18 06 01:37 pm Link Rumors can definatly be a bad thing. I am a cosplay model. I love to cosplay mainly because it gives myself a creative outlet, not to mention it is such a fun hobby. Sep 18 06 04:09 pm Link I've met several creepy/scary GWC at cons - so that could be a factor as it can make women leery of shooting outside of cons if you don't know the photographer or not be able to get references on a person. A site like this would be beneficial for cosplayers to visit, as they can see a persons work beforehand and maybe see some feedback in tags or in person worked with list.
