Description Dragon*Con 2010

Ben10 fanboy squees over Batman. If Batman weren't too epic to fanboy squee, i'm sure he'd do the same to Ben. Batman is just fanboy squee-ing on the inside.

friend Laura as Ben10. Random awesome guy in a Batman cosplay as Batman.

"Batman: The Brave and the Bold" missed a great episode synopsis, there. If he can crossover with Scooby...

Well, now that it's been cancelled, it'll have to be Young Justice. Unless they can do a one-off.

Can I ask if your friend made or bought her jacket?? I've been cosplaying Ben for about a year and I still don't have a jacket for him.

I thought so too I was so used to her wearing short wigs (she was a friend of a friend, so DragonCon was the first time I met her. She played L from Deathnote, amd was in that costume when I met her, and then, of course, she cosplayed Ben10 after that) that, when I finally saw her without a wig for the first time, I was terribly confused, because her hair was long, and it wasn't the same shade of brown as the Ben10 wig! She's very talented when it comes to wig styling

Now that's epic. I'm not very talented when it comes to wig styling; I can do a bit but not much (I make my sister do the harder stuff!). Even since I got deeper into cosplay, I've kept my hair short. It's easier to deal with the wigs that way, and I can just use my real hair for Haruhi and Ben.

She looked adorable in those short hair wigs I think she'd look so cute if she did cut her hair short

I've got short hair too It isn't for cosplay purposes that I keep it short, but I have discovered that it makes getting into wigs a whole lot easier

Oh, and a little tip in case you're planning to make a ben10 jacket: I've seen several Ben10 cosplayers with jackets made of green pleather...it seems like it SHOULD be that way, what with lettermen's jackets and all, but for the record, even when the jacket is well made,the over all effect of the material really makes the jacket look cheap and unimpressive...

Save yourself the trouble of wrestling with that material and don't go with the pleather

Thanks for the tip~ You know, I never thought of Ben's jacket as being leather; it just never gave me that impression. And then when Alien Swarm came out and his jacket was all shiny, I got so confused. >< But I don't really think Ben would wear leather or pleather. I mean, his jeans and shirt are loose fitting and he wears converse -- Ben likes to be comfortable; so I think his jacket is cotton (or something else that's comfy).

Yeah, that Alien Swarm movie...ugh. The cast was awful, the costumes were mediocre...you saw how bad the jacket looked...yick. I prefer to deny the movie ever existed...*shudder*

Definitely more of a lighter exercise jacket, not leather or pleather. I ran into a guy at D*Con on the last day, one of his buddies worked for Cartoon Network and we chatted for a few minutes. He wasn't trying to cosplay Ben, he had tattered jeans on and just some tennis shoes, and a white shirt under a ben10 jacket. It looked like just a light, breathable sports jacket, nice and comfortable and simple. Even thought the rest of his outfit didn't match up (Like I said, he even told me he wasn't trying to cosplay Ben, he just liked the jacket), the workmanship and material of the jacket worked so well that it was instantly recognizable. I forgot to get a picture of him

There were only about 2 parts I liked in that whole movie (and of course they're both Ben lines). The movie as a whole wasn't done well at all. I mean, I appreciate their hard work and all, but they could have played more to the fans. The most annoying part of it was Max. What were they thinking?! *facedesk*

I just found this: [link] . It's nice (except for the price and color of the zipper). The material looks pretty cool too.

Oh yes, I just took a glance at your profile.

Just observations of fact, not intending to come across as trying to hit on you or anything Let me just get that out of the way now!

I can see that you have a very nice, distinctively curvy figure, and are on the busty side.

That jacket you linked me to was made for an adult male. It would look very strange on a person with your figure. Your chest size would most likely make chest binding for cross-gender cosplay pretty pointless, so the best way to help with that would be to be mindful of the shape of the jacket; because the shape of the jacket will be your best tool to accent your figure where it counts, and tone down/not draw so much attention to your bust.

No offense, the more I look at that jacket, then more I'm thinking it won't do you any justice those sleeve lengths are awkward, the shape is not flattering, the material is *okay*, and I like the embroidered aspect, but the white stripes on the right sleeve are improperly positioned, the zipper stands out a lot, and the collar isn't the right style.

I'd strongly recommend looking into commissioning someone for the jacket if you really want your Ben10 cosplay to be outstanding. that way it will be custom tailored to you, your size, and your figure the way it needs to be in order to be carried out successfully

I hope I have not offended! I'm certainly not trying to. Like I said, if you're interested, I'd be happy to get in touch with my friend to see if she'd be willing to take a commission. She's talented and trustworthy. I've known her for two years, and she won't disappoint!

I dunno, that's a pretty shapeless jacket...You could probably do a lot better than that...the collar is all wrong, I don't know what's going on with the sleeve lengths...yes, the 10 IS embroidered into it, I do like that, but that price is ridiculous...

You'd be much better off commissioning someone who knows what they're doing to make the jacket. If you'd like, I can ask my friend who made the Ben10 jacket in the photo if she'd be willing to take a commission on it. She's very talented and very reasonable, and as you can see, she does good, quality work that she takes a lot of pride in

You're amazing. xD Thanks so much!

And don't worry, I'm not offended at all. I crossplay a lot more than cosplay. lol (Just because I haven't found many female characters that I like enough to cosplay.) Binding hasn't been too much of a trouble so far. The two picture I have up of my Ben cosplay I didn't really even bind for. It was a lazy day. ^^'

The more I look at that jacket the less I like it now. >< That's a good thing though! I don't want to make the mistake of buying one that will just look terrible.

deserthaze In reply to GraceDragon013 [2011-09-09 16:50:16 +0000 UTC]

I tend to have more fun crossplaying too

I only looked at that main photo, and the angle made you look more busty than you actually are, so I can see you're probably close to my size, so I can see binding WOULD help in crossplay and yeah, with the right cut of jacket, binding may not even be needed

Sam is awesome, she'll make sure you have a jacket to be envied!

And yeah, I can see someone paying $50 for a jacket, especially a commission (I dont know what Sam charges, but whatever it is, she's worth it), but a commission puts in that extra work so it's custom tailored to YOU, and you're paying for all the details to be carried out correctly. That ebay jacket is...no. That's just settling for something that comes somewhere in the ballpark of what you want. It's not outstanding in any way You can do way better than that if you're going to shell out $50
