I'm 5'10''. Someday I'd like to cosplay as Superman. I know that everyone should be able to and feel comfortable cosplaying as whomever they want, (within reason, nothing racist obviously) I agree with that sentiment and I like seeing people comfortable coslplaying as characters they don't really look like. However, I can't shake the self concious feeling that I'm not tall enough. I can certainly wear some lifts and boots with a generous heel and bump myself up a bit, but I'm afraid I still won't look convincing enough. Any tips or advice? Do you think as a dark haired individual that is working on getting bigger/more muscular, but is average height, I could pull it off?
I once saw a guy at a con who looked a lot like Superman, except he looked to be 5'7''. I really liked his costume and thought he looked really cool. Even though his height was really minor to me when I saw him, I still have the irrational feeling I'll be judged if I'm not the proper size.
I don't know if this thread would do better in the DC forum, but I didn't want to post a thread that wasn't related to a project in there, and this forum is more discussion oriented, so I posted here.
