Fun, simple cosplay for the larger guys?

What about the Killabilly boss from Lollipop Chainsaw? All you'd need is zombie make-up and an Elvis outfit!

my being-indecisive-ness (there's probably a really good word for that)

You mean "indecisiveness". Your being indecisive and your indecisiveness are the same thing.

It's good to know words.

You can get all the whole costume thrift store.

Sailor Moon.

You should definitely cosplay Sailor Moon >.>

I agree.

 

[Grottnikk]

If you fancy Left 4 Dead, how about either a Boomer or a Tank?

Just because you're bigger doesn't mean you can't cosplay with the cool kids...

What is she going as? Depending on what it is, do something that goes along with that.

In case you guys are wondering, he's 220 pounds. Not that big. The title of the thread is what's throwing people off.

I'd say try King Dedede.

The hammer might be hard... but other than that! It's pretty easy.

I've been considering a Max Payne from the third game for Pax Aus. Cheap and simple to pull off, plus you don't look like a total ponse outside of the convention center. I think I'm a bit too big for a version from the earlier games, and leather jackets are expensive, plus I'll probably need another haircut by then, and I don't mind rocking a bit of a beard, at least not a big one.

You can go as the engineer from TF2, all you need is a hard hat, some work goggles, and some heavy overalls or modify some waders. You could probably get it all at a hardware store.

If you live in a place that has military/law enforcement surplus stores, it doesn't require much needlework to turn a prisoner's orange outfit into an aperture science test subject uniform. Personally I went as an SCP Class D once doing exactly that.

Try Heavy from TF2?

Ok, that one was a bit obvious, so how ab-

I'm amazed that there's been no mention of Man-Faye. Don't google that, by the way.

I was going to suggest that, but I can't for the life of me remember what show she's from. Though I wanted to say Cowboy Bebop

 

[Rasor]

Sorry guys I should have been more specific about my build.
I'm I'm big enough to be called fat but I'm still well able to run and there's some muscle under it.
uhhh, I've got a bit gut on me but it's not large enough too even start drooping, no double chin.
But this thread really has been great guys, lot of laughs.

 

[Mordekaien]

Can't think of nothing better, but this one should be pretty easy.

Spoiler: Rufus from Street Fighter 4

I highly doubt you are that big compared to Rufus! I mean look at that belly! Also that hairdo will be hard to pull off without resorting to a wig well depend how long your natural hair is.

 

[C4tt4nn4]

although not technically a game, ralph from reck it ralph might be good. the character is naturally beefy, and the cosplay itself would be simple.

That's a good idea. I like that one.

I have to say though, for a $250 budget I don't see what the problem is. I've done DIY costumes of Altair, Nathan Drake, a L4D hunter, planning an Alex Mercer costume and several very good zombie hunters, and they never cost me more than 40 -50 euro. And that's only because I usually buy one expensive prop to work around. For $250 you shouldn't have any problem- hell, you could probably pay someone to make a costume for you or buy a professionally made one for that money.

 

[Owyn_Merrilin]

Is this an anime convention? Because my first thought was Ox King from Dragonball.

Spoiler: Just look at him

 

[King of Asgaard]

How about Elvis from God Hand, cabron?
