I recently got the idea to cosplay as a human female DC along with some other anime outfits.

Anybody have any ideas as to what DC would look like as a human female? ^^;

hmmmm

Maybe Swimwear like a surfer bodysuit or scuba outfit. Probably some ammo belts.. After all. Dephcharge is a solider above all else. His aggressive hateful personality of destroying Rampage no matter the cost should reflect onto the design. So Guns, Sailor anchor tattoos, Navy Seal style gear would make more sense.

Haha, for some reason I find it hard to picture a DC bikini xDDD Maybe it'll be more interesting as a cyborg-femme DC so I can throw some armor in there ^_^

Ah. So basically a Mecha Musume as they're known in japan. That'd probably work.. though I can't really see DC as a chick. Even though I used to know one that used to play as DC..Hm..

I've got quite a few ideas, though his 'wings' are gonna be hard 2 make...

I was thinking something along the lines of KOS-MOS from Xenosaga, similar to her outfit anyway.

Well for wings, I'd probably use something like Wonderflex. It's a Fabric which can be used to make all sorta cosplay things. Basically you apply heat and you can shape it to whatever you want. Armor, Tophats, masks, anything. And it'll hold its shape.

Depth Charge is currently looking at all of you with an arched optical ridge... :lol:

But yeah, KOS-MOS from Xenosaga is definately a good option. *ROFL*

Kinda, except it's a thermal plastic. Apply heat, mold or hand manipulate yourself. Cosplayers apparently use it for armor, costume makers for hats or funky masks. You could literally make a entire outfit from the stuff. Or Dephy's gun..

Eeep.. I really can't imagine DC as a human female no matter what he/she wears. But I've seen fanboy/girl art of a bunch of other transformers characters out there so it'll be interesting to see the results to say the least.

Most people seem to go with the scantily dressed girl wearing bits and pieces of armor it seems.
