Hi all!
I am very new to the cosplay community, and I don't know much about the etiquette surrounding it. Basically, I was wondering what the general consensus is on requesting an original character cosplay, whether from a friend or stranger.
I write fan fiction and original stories, and have a few of my original characters I would love to see come to life. I myself couldn't do my characters justice, as I'm the complete opposite body type, but I have a friend that cosplays all the time. I've been wanting to ask her about dressing as my character but wasn't sure how to approach this. I don't know if this would be rude or offensive to her, or if it's just not something that's generally done.
I'd love any thoughts on the subject! Please remember - this is really my first adventure into cosplaying and I'm not trying to sound ignorant or rude on this subject, I'm just curious
