Anime Cosplay Help

[Japan]

[COLOR="DarkRed"][SIZE="1"]After finishing my Tifa (Advent Children) costume, I want to create another success. Now the boundries are: I will not dye my hair or get a weird haircut, no nudity, nothing to difficult yet I want to show off my body.

So here are my choices that I have been considering:

I have random parts of either Rikku costume like the shirt for FFX and the mini-skirt for FFX-2. Thoughts? Or perhaps another character all together?[/SIZE][/COLOR]

[size=1]I can't see the two pics of Rikku for whatever reason (although my computer is really crap, so that might be it) but if you wanna show off your body then you can't really go wrong with The Major. Although, you might have a problem unless your hair's naturally purple and you know where to get losta guns and stuff. ^_^

And you may as well be nude if you're planning on going as her dressed as she is in that picture.

I'm also interested in this Tifa success you mention since I've seen a lot of people do her but they never quite get it right.[/size]

[SIZE="1"]You might stay away from characters like Motoko; she's harder to pull off even if you do have a nice body.

You could probably work with Rikku in FFX, her outfit in there is pretty cute and would most likely be easier since she's a more...reasonably proportioned character.

& remember to fix the two Rikku pics ;][/SIZE]

[COLOR="RoyalBlue"]I think this would be beset if you don't want anything that too revealing on you, but will show off your body. :animesweaI think besides for the Lain the others might be so. Do you have a pic of your Tifa outfit? I LOVE seeing cosplay people!! :catgirl: I do some myself for Halloween, but NEVER have a camera handy.:animeangr [/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkRed"][SIZE="1"]Now the idea that I was thinking for the Motoko outfit would be something like this. This cosplayer is wearing jeans over the outfit. It seems I cannot find any examples of other outfits she wears except that battle suit in 2nd Gig and that risqué one from the first season.

Now for those who want to see my costume, this is my first serious costume. I admit that I could of done better. Critiques are welcome.
