practicality: (Leon Kennedy // Lone Wolf)
I want to cosplay default RE4 Leon (have for a while, actually), but I've been going 'augh, so expensive' about it. I've also been contemplating doing STARS!Wesker, instead. And then I realized that half their gear? The same XD; I'll have to whip out the RE Archives book and take a good look, but I might be able to do two costumes for the price of one, w00t.

Having extensively researched both, their gear is not the same.

Are you serious? Unless you mean RE2 Leon, and STARS!Wesker, it should be obvious just from looking.

But as for the specifics of the tac gear, it took me quite a while to determine the exact models myself, and I don't actually plan on sharing them, no.

Look, if you don't want to actually be helpful, don't bother saying anything at all, then. If they're so totally dissimiliar, five minutes with the RE Archives book would have lead me to figure it out myself.

I was helpful. I was telling you they're not the same, even though you seem to think they appear that way, which means looking at more references may not help you.

Just about the only thing I think you could get away with reusing is the thigh holster. Of course, you're more than welcome to reuse whatever you want. As per your request, I'm done being helpful.

I think you underestimate the amount of research I put into my cosplay. Having actual references instead of largely going off of memory? Big difference.

And first comment was less of the 'helpful' and more of the 'annoyingly superior'.

Oh my, statements of fact - 'I have extensively researched both', which I have, as I cosplayed the one and may do the other in the future, and 'they are not the same', which is simple truth, are annoyingly superior now?

Get a fucking helmet, Cocoa. I wasn't ragging on your cosplaying abilities and you damn well know it. I'm sure it time you'll come to the same conclusions about the gear that I did.

Grow up.

...Jesus Christ, do I have to stop cosplaying to not do the same characters as you? Do you have Rufus planned as well and just not mentioned it yet?

Ooookay. I've told you countless times that RE is my favourite video game series ever. I've also told you countless times that I love Wesker.

That I might be considering a Wesker cosplay at some point? Stunning!

As for Rufus, no. Reno, maybe. I once considered Cloud, but I'm not baby-faced enough, not with how they made him in AC.

Actually, I rather distinctly remember a conversation we had where you said _Clare_ was the Wesker-fan out of the two of you, not you.

She's the bigger Wesker fan, yes. What does that have to do with anything? We also had a conversation about how full of awesome RE:CV Wesker is, where I even mentioned that I'd checked out his badass gear online.

I say again, stunning!
