Video game cosplays

Cosplaying is no longer just for anime/manga. Video games are huge these days as well as movie cosplays. I am a HUGE gamer. I may not look it or even seem like it but I am. My fiance who is in a game major at his college, is who I find out about most of my favorite games from. The two games that are my favorites from my childhood are The Sims and American Mcgee's Alice.

My fiance and I both would like to go to Comic-con some day or even PAX (Seattle). So here are some characters I would like to cosplay someday that belong to video games.


Guild Wars 2,  Cabalist female light armor (Left)





Freaking love this outfit. It's my favorite outfit out of all of the light armor. It's girly and fun. I love the lace and details on the bodice. It's rare to see a armor set for a female in a rpg that doesn't show off boobs or isn't overly sexualized. It sort of have a lolita feeling to it and I guess that's why I like it so much. I would love to wear this and plan on making it someday. I forgot to add this one to my future cosplay list!




American Mcgee's Alice, Madness Returns. Elizabeth "Lizzie" Liddell "Queen of Hearts"





 I loved this twist in the game. She's ghastly beautiful and I guess that's why I like this outfit. Alice's sister is a big role in Alice's life and it's mentioned throughout the game. Her character isn't shown often but within the little time she is, you can tell she is a strong person. And those hands! I love that grotesque feel of the hands. The dress is very typical for a Queen of Hearts but I like the gold and dark red together. The patterns are pretty simple. I don't quite feel ready to make it because of those hands. So maybe some day.


American Mcgee's Alice, Madness Returns. Alice



I love Alice. And I love dark characters. I love how they twisted Alice. And madness just works so well. I don't see many Alice cosplayers anymore and would love to bring her back! I want to make both outfits. Maybe use the town outfit for down time since it looks pretty simple and comfortable. Both are simple and I'm pretty sure I could easily make both.




Guild Wars 2, Twilight Arbor Female (Left)




Another favorite of mine from Guild Wars 2. It's enchanting! I'd love to make this. I can see myself working with a lot of different fabrics and trying out new techniques. It'd be a challenge that's for sure!


Those are my top choices. Soon I'll go over some of my movie/tv cosplays I want to do someday as well as a post about my 2014 goals and plans.

Thanks for viewing!
