(http://x2e.xanga.com/9dab16156853028656427/b20101395.jpg) I have no sewing skills what so ever but i have a sewing machine. Do you know where I could learn how to make this trench coat or buy cheaply at a price around $50-$60?

You could cosplay as Canti from FLCL - he basically looks like a robot with a tv for a head...He's actually really cool and people who know the show will be like, "OMG Canti! Photo NAO!" but if your friend hasn't seen FLCL you might get away with it :D http://i345.photobucket.com/albums/p379/Eliayth/canti.jpg Ovan suggested Nell from Bleach, you probably already know what she looks like if you know Cuulhorn etc., but here (the little version lol); http://i345.photobucket.com/albums/p379/Eliayth/NellTu.jpg Or, you could go as Hen-Tai; http://i345.photobucket.com/albums/p379/Eliayth/hen-tai-hentai.jpg Though, I would say the best thing to go as would be a Pokemon or Digimon, for example, Mudkip (though be prepared for a lot of "So I herd you liek Mudkipz?" :L). Just make the costume with a hole so people can see your head and make it big and round. It might actually look so ridiculous that it'd be cool and people will want to worship you though, I don't know. Mudkip was just an example, just find a really weird looking Pokemon or Digimon or something...or Yu-Gi-Oh monster, the possibilities are endless. If you wanna go with than and can't pick one, I'll look for one if you let me know :D Wow, that is an interesting costume. xD

She has lost her memory, and when approached by other players at first is sullen and rude. As the show progresses, Tsukasa becomes involved with Artificial Intelligence in the game, and along with acquaintances must save The World. Note: Shouji's character in the game, Tsukasa, is a male character. Doesn't really matter though, the costume would look just as good on a girl in my opinon. The costume may not be as simple as you'd like though...here are some pics; http://i345.photobucket.com/albums/p379/Eliayth/Hack_SIGN_Tsukasa.jpg http://i345.photobucket.com/albums/p379/Eliayth/Tsukasafull.jpg What Shouji looks like in real life: http://i345.photobucket.com/albums/p379/Eliayth/Shouji1.png Another idea I have is Karen Onodera from Please Twins. She is rather timid and shy, even prone to fainting when a situation is too much for to handle. She is very cute though :D Karen travels to live with a Maiku Kamishiro, who she believes is her twin brother, only to find that there is another girl, Miina Miyafuji, who also thinks Maiku is her twin brother - all three have the same photo of twin siblings playing in a pool. Both girls develop deep feelings for Maiku however are unable to act on them without knowing who is the real sister. She has a few different outfits, including her school uniform and various dresses, good choice if you wanted to cosplay as a really "girly" character. http://i345.photobucket.com/albums/p379/Eliayth/karen.jpg http://i345.photobucket.com/albums/p379/Eliayth/3381_8839.jpg http://i345.photobucket.com/albums/p379/Eliayth/onetwin.jpg If you need more detailed pictures let me know and I will try to find some. Another suggestion I have is Haruko Haruhara from FLCL. Haruko is an energetic, spontaneous girl from outer-space, and an investigator for the "Galactic Space Patrol Brotherhood/Stellar Fraternity". She wields a bass guitar as her weapon of choice, with a pull-cord on the back which allows her to use it to fly.It can also shoot bullets and act as a rocket launcher. In the beginning of the show, she whacks a young boy called Naota in the head with her guitar, causing a big growth to appear on his head, which eventually bursts and creates some very strange creatures. http://i345.photobucket.com/albums/p379/Eliayth/FuriKuriHaruko.gif http://i345.photobucket.com/albums/p379/Eliayth/Haruko2.png If you picked this costume, it'd be cool if you could get someone to cosplay as Canti with you; http://i345.photobucket.com/albums/p379/Eliayth/canti.jpg Alright, if you like any of these that's great, if not let me know and I'll try to think of some more ideas - if you think of anything more specific you're looking for in the costume/character that'd help.

If you picked this costume, it’d be cool if you could get someone to cosplay as Canti with you;

Nice idea, I think it would look very cool. http://cosplaylocator.com/Cosplay/Bleach-Cosplay http://cosplaylocator.com/Bleach-Cosplay/Orihime-Cosplay You could also think about Kyoko Tokiwa from Full Metal Panic!, the best friend of the female lead character Chidori Kaname. She enjoys taking pictures with her mini camera, and is a kind and energetic person. And, she also has a cute school uniform :D http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g314/Nosebleeder/FMP_Kyouko.jpg Hi there, I think cosplaying as Orihime would definitely suit you.

Here's a link to pictures: http://dothack.wikia.com/wiki/Nazo_Grunty I wanted to make him in the pose shown in the top picture but with the colors in the 2nd, and make the plush quite big, like at least a foot tall.
