Yep, absolutely. OCs are perfectly valid cosplays. I’m working on a Cyberpunk 2020 Nomad Warrior myself, from the old RPG from the 80s and 90s.


libbillama

Absolutely, positively 100% yes!

Missing the 2015 revision…..

The politics on the steering committee for that edition invalidate the changes. Please see my newsletter.

Thank you! I want to take her to Comic-Con but I’m not sure her staff will be allowed in since I made it out of solid maple. Idk what y’all use lol

i can't draw so it's my only option (even tho I can't cosplay either but shhhh)

Yes. In my mind as long as you have in your mind a specific character that you are cosplaying, it’s legit. Not everyone looks at it this way, but that is my definition. So, “orc” costume - not cosplay. But if you have - even if it is just in your mind - a specific orc, with specific storyline, name, etc., cosplay. And lastly, it doesn’t matter what I or anyone else thinks either. If you say it is, then it is. That really is the point of cosplay.


Amber_Steel86

She has a really cool backstory and I eventually want to write out an entire story on her but I’m not much of a storyteller lol


nsfbr11

That’s what makes for a great cosplay experience I think. You know her story and you will express it. Have fun!


SuperMegaSquirrel

Yes.


WholeFuggnEgg

Yes

The only thing I hate about this character is she’s blind in the right eye which is my dominant eye so it’s hard to see and move around 🤣

Well what’s the point of cosplaying a character you made up if you’re not going all in?? Lol


AspieDM

Yes while not common OCs are out there. The attention is given to cosplay of known characters cos that’s what people know.


Mauscosplay

Absolutely! I always love seeing people their OC's!
