I'm 5'4". 135 pounds.
You'd think as a short Asian guy, I could pull off lots of cosplay. This is not true. Most anime characters are super tall with blonde hair.. there are only a handful of short, black-haired guys.
I have no talent in sewing, but I'm willing to spend some bucks on cosplay. I'll probably buy off eBay. I'm also willing to buy a wig.
Anyway, I'm taking all recommendations. I'm mostly interested in short characters - not gonna cosplay a Sephiroth-height character when every Aeris cosplayer is gonna be taller than me -.- Here are my ideas so far:
Sena - Eyeshield 21
Van - Escaflowne
Sai - Naruto
Hitsugaya - Bleach
El Blaze - Virtua Fighter 5 (My body is the ULTIMATE... weapon.)
Hokutomaru - Mark of the Wolves
Shizumaru - Samurai Shodown
Shimon - Gurren Lagann
I'm not scrawny. But I'm not super ripped. HOWEVER, I have been working out from time to time, and I've been working out more often. So I won't look bad in a cosplay with tight clothes, or shirtless/open shirt. In fact, I'm gonna say I'd love to do a sexy cosplay. I don't mind gettin' some attention from the honeys heh heh heh~
Or I can do a crossplay of Eileen.
HEEEECK YEAH
