Advice for first time cosplayers:
☆ Choose a character that you love!
It makes it all the more worth it to go all in when you love the character.
☆ Start small and grow as you go.
You don't have to have the perfect cosplay the first time, just get as close as you can until you save up money to do more.
☆ Good, fast, cheap - Choose two.
You can't have it all! Depending on the characters, you can interchange between the three but good and cheap is still good! So don't sweat it.
☆ Do your research
Look into how to do a great cosplay of the characters you are interested in and where to get good cosplay items (OtakuDigest shop section is a great place to start).
☆ Don't worry about accuracy (too much)
Be accurate but don't worry if your jacket has six beads instead of seven. It's okay if you're not perfect just get as close as you can.
☆ Branch out!
Ask for advice for other cosplayers and when you go to the conventions, plan some group cosplaying.
☆ Don't let others drag you down.
Their opinion doesn't matter anyway;Surround yourself with people who support you!
☆ Literally just do it!
If you don't like it, fine move on. If you do like it, you just found yourself a great new hobby!
