Bleach @ Connecticon '07

[squee47]

Hey guys. I dunno if ya'll saw me at Connecticon this year. I was the Hisagi who was bouncing around on Saturday. It was my first con, and my first cosplay, and it was awesome. Anyways, I came up with this crazy idea. Next year, I want to get a Bleach squad together. And I want everyone. All the captains and Vice-captains and any supporting characters that anyone wants to cosplay. I met up with a few of you guys this year, and I was really impressed with the quality of your work (I supposed i should be, since Aurora did win the craftsmanship award ). I was just wondering if anyone would be interested in joining my group, and because I met a few of you and all, I thought I'd give you first pick of characters, minus a couple. I was thinking that everyone could meet up on Saturday and hang out for at least a while, do a photo shoot, etc.

The few characters I do have reserved are:
Hisagi Shuuhei - 9th Division Vice-Captain (me, of course)
Shunsui Kyōraku - 8th Division Captain
Retsu Unohana - 4th Division Captain
Ganju Shiba - General Goof

So if you guys want to join us, then by all means, send me a PM or an email (email is preferable) and let me know, and I'll reserve your character for you. If you message / email me, please include your name and character preference. Thanks! And I hope to see you all next year!

Sounds cool, but I don't know if I'll be cosplaying Bleach next year - I'm toying around with several ideas at the moment, especially for Saturday, which is the contest day. That also goes for my sister and Redheaded Being (who intends to be, of all things, Yazoo from FF Advent Children).

Anyway, I'll let you know if we figure out for sure what we're doing, but I doubt I'll be able to join Sorry. We'll definitely be around to take photos, though ^.^ And hand out more odd little slips of paper and such.

Hey, I'd make a good Yazoo, thank you very much. And that's Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children

We're probably going to be staying in the hotel again next year, and if you don't have an Ukitake for the photoshoot, I will bring my haori and shihakusho and wig and such and change into it for the photoshoot. Mind you, I don't make a great Ukitake, but my costume looks fantastic.
I don't intend to do any more serious Bleach cosplay because I really don't look like any Bleach characters. I know that no one really looks like a character, but I can't even pull it off a little bit. Mainly because my face is, in general, too angular for the girls, I cannot pull of a Renji attitude, and I'm too cute to cosplay Shunsui. Not to mention the lack of chest hair. But yes, that is an extended reason why I am not intending to cosplay Bleach characters.

I got the weirdest idea to dress arbol up as Uruquiorra when she was putting on her eyeshadow today 0.o With a little bit of face- encrusting white foundation, it might work... maybe?

Anyway, I'll second what Redheaded Being says - if you need a Kisuke or a Soi Fong, Arbol and I can probably dress up for fifteen minutes or something.

Arbol as Uruquirra? That actually might work. She has a kind of roundish face and all. She'd just need a lot of white foundation and some eyeliner. And that funny mask-thing. And the outfit, obviously!
