It's Decided!

[Kura]

I'm going to be going to London's AnimeCon in May (MCM I believe it's called..)

That being said.. I'm torn between two cosplays right now. I know I have a ton of time to decide on what to be.. but I want to see if I can get a cosplay group going. I also want to see what cosplay would suit me more.
I'm torn between:

ANISE (TALES OF THE ABYSS)

LIGHTNING (FFXIII-2)

and high res:

Spoiler:

I'm short so I feel Anise would suit me more (I am 5').. but at the same time I really want to try my hand at making armour.. and pulling off lightning well will be pretty epic. : | Part of me feels like "I'll just make both!" but I don't know if I'll have the time or budget for both. I'm confident that I can pull off either one fairly well (my sewing and construction skills are pretty good.. I've made some complex stuff and I've made a digimon fursuit for a friend before, too.) So I dunno. If I can get a group for Tales I'll be Anise, but otherwise I think I'm leaning more towards Lightning.

Anyways is anyone from Pokecommunity going to go? And what are your thoughts on who I should be? Does anyone else here cosplay?

(Oh and recent pic of me in case you dunno what I look like >_> btw I am wearing no makeup at all here so if I'm going to be lightning then yeah I know I gotta cover my rosy cheeks)

Spoiler:

Yeah drop me a line if you plan to go or if you have another suggestion on who I should cosplay!~

Yeah, I think Anise would fit you more, but itll be really interesting for the other one xD
ehh. Anise. /No idea who these people are. :P

Holy crap, go as Lightning and I will love you forever.

Seconding Anise. Considering how close it is to the European release of the game (3 or so months) and how big Final Fantasy is, probably Lightning will be a really popular cosplay and then you get compared with others, run into the same character, etc. Plus you look more like Anise.

But then if she can pull off a really good Lightning she'll be the one everyone else gets compared to.

Ok going as Lightning (and if I have time I'll also make Anise) but only because a friend from work is also into Cosplay.. and she's going to be making Fran..
So we'll be two rockin' final fantasy girlies ;3

Lightning gets my vote as well.
