Sorry, but of all DeathNote only Misa is some of cosplay. L wears jeans and whit shirt, others - proper male costumes. What to COSplay?
I would preferer CLAMP indeed. Especially Code Geass. Would I be an onna - would dream of cosplaying CC. But in current state it could be intrersting to cosplay Gilbert Guilford for me.

@kyo: no worries ^^ and to answer your question: they should. The whole idea behind the con is to make it like the Middle Eastern version of the San Diego Comic Con - which is arguably the best con in the world. I'll get in contact with them to find out. gellemar: there is more to cosplay than dressing up. Yes, L wears a pair of jeans and a white shirt, but that is what I was trying to get at before - it doesn't always work. You need to have that certain look and the ability to act like him to pull it off. I think he is a difficult character to cosplay as. Especially because he is so popular, so people have high expectations. I would be really happy with a CLAMP group but I don't know if people would be able to do it for financial reasons. I think if we decided to go that way, we'd have to have a wide variety of anime covered and would have to start planning asap. I, personally, would do something from CCS seeing as it is my (other) favourite anime - not Ruby Moon, obviously. But another character. Maybe Sakura herself. I dunno. I think we should all nominate two or three different group cosplays (in order of most to least wanted) we would be up for and just have a majority rules so everyone who participates can have their say of what they want.

♥ Sailor Mars ♥ CCS is classic, indeed. But I do not like fantasy. So I am aginst CCS or Tsubasa. So speaking of CLAMP we then left with xxxHolic (again not too much male characters and all of them short-haired), Chobits (again two male chars, although persocon coordinator men was cool), and Kobato. So, speaking of CLAMP the only series I can participate is CG... Well, another oprion is crossdress, lol.
Speaking of finances - OK, I will buy a sewing machine for the club sake. I even know how operate it. So the only thing will be to provide me with patterns (you, girls should know how to do it) and to buy materials, which is also not so expensive.

Totally agree with ya mars..L is hard to Cosplay.. You even need to copy his postue @_@ hahaha but I've seen some people who pulled it off and they were quite good @mars you think we can do more than 1 cosplay??? Yikes~! hahaha And ahmm...if you really want to do a group cosplay i think finaly fantasy would be good...cause...crusnik might do Zack and ill probably do noctis since i think i can do an L cosplay hmm.. and yui might do a Lightning cosplay but shes still undecided (so am i) haha so just leave a reply and tell me wat you think anyways I'm going to fix my props (^_^) ~kyo

Yui/Kyo, yes, L's movements and postures are quite hen. And to protray him is not an easy thing. But still we are speaking of cosplaying, and I just not satisfied with simplistic choices of costume itself. If we are aiming for theatre or roleplay - that's OK. But cosplaying has costume in root of idea, so it shuold be something interesting.

YEa. i understand what ya mean.. cause judges will look at the costume and the effort how you did the costume thats why i think we might have low chance of winning if we did an L cosplay...cause as you said Its just a white shirt and jeans maybe L would be good if we were making a short film on cosplay XD thanks gellemar that helped me decide on what char ill do (^_^) ~kyo

It is never too soon. I'll do up a separate thread once I've recieved a response about competition rules and guidelines.
@kyo sure, more than once cosplay is a possibility. I know people that wear their group cosplay just for the comp and have a different costume to walk around in. The con that I go to back home in Australia has a cosplay comp both main days, so some people get away with wearing 5 different costumes - 1 for Friday night and two for both Saturday and Sunday. It just up to whether you have the time to buy/make or if you can afford it. I wore 3 costumes this year - I actually had 4 ready tho >__>

sailor marsi think we should also put in the characters we are cosplaying so: ``we wouldn't have doubles.. ``and if we know who they/we are cosplaying, we can provide help if they/we have the resources.. because most of us are otakus who collects anime paraphernalia that might be helpful to other members.. and i think we can also put the progress of the costumes of the members.. like me, i have a complete Green School Uniform (maybe for Kagome of Inuyasha or Lisa Yadomaru of Bleach) and Amane Misa of Death Note but i don't have the Deathnote ntbk.. so..what do you think.. maybe you could start a new thread about the characters and the progress of the members who will be cosplaying.. ~yui

I have a few proposals that we could possibly cosplay, they're pretty low budget and basic.
K-on Haruhi Suzumiya maybe
others can toss in some ideas while waiting for the reply? video games too maybe? :3
