Ok--

ImNewHere: I'd like to see a picture of you in crossplay before I pass judgment, but some things I'd suggest right now would be: a really, really close shave. Double lather, buy an electric if you have too, but if we can see that mustache shadow, it won't work. Second, wig up man. Third, pluck those caterpillars. They've a nice shape, but they could use some thinning. Third, eyeliner would really help bring out those lovely eyes of yours!

Berrymon: L is a difficult character to crossplay as (believe me, I've done it!), mainly because so many girls crossplay as him that people (including me) are shocked when they see a real male L, so you have that working against you. I'd like to see if you in a different crossplay, or maybe even just straight up drag kinging (see my photos). Apart from that, I really think you can pass! Your only real problem is your uber-girly haircut, so I'd recommend hats, baseball or beanie (but only beanies with brims!). And I really think you can pass as Sasuke. You actually look quite a bit like him!

LaraVine: I'm afraid I really can't say anything about your crossplay because the pictures are so shooped within an inch of their life that I can't tell how successful it was. However, your 'without makeup' picture fills me with hope for future crossplays.

Alright, I've been pondering this:

People have told me I pass as a male (like for Zack and Sephiroth), but I've also heard the opposite. Just for the heck of it, what do you think?

As Sephiroth:

Yo, what happened to this thread, it went kind of screwy what with double posts, and posts in wrong places.

P.S. FatalDreams you can pass so well I'm positively frothing with envy.

~FatalDreams~ · 12-30-2008, 02:49 AM

@ hooraytheweird: Frothing with envy huh? *blush* Awww thanks ^_^

Haku23 · 12-30-2008, 04:33 AM

Yup, you can definitely pass fatal!

In fact I would've thought you were a male cosplayer! I hope you take that as a compliment XD

I agree with hoorayftw laravine, I can't see your face in crossplay because of the filters ^^;;;

imo you can pass berrymon!

Anyone can crossplay silverclaw!

I'm assuming you're male and for whatever reason I think you'd make a cute Chise from Saikano! Provided you'd be comfortable wearing a schoolgirl outfit :P

Kerrigan199 · 12-30-2008, 08:59 AM

I've been told both that I can pass and that I can't. I'm usually just told that I'm androgynous and that I'm forever doomed to be that crossplayer who remains a question to the world.

So, here I am. >.>;;

I don't really have a chest to begin with, but I'm wearing a sports bra in all of the photos, so I didn't go through the trouble of binding.

Normal Face
Normal Body Front
Normal Body Side

Crossplay Face
Crossplay Hat
Crossplay Body Front
Crossplay Body Side

And just for fun, one of Me In Drag.

So.
Do you guys think I pass?
I'm really curious. xD

hooraytheweird · 12-30-2008, 10:34 AM

Okay, Kerrigan.

1. You can most definitely pass.

2. You are very attractive as male or female. (=D)

3. That's a kick ass camera.

The only thing I could suggest is a little bit of contouring. Hold up, lemme see if I can find the youtube video...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uUsbjkqUVH4. There. And there's something floating around the threads on how to make you look like you have an adams apple, but I'm sure you could google it.

Blood_Sword · 12-30-2008, 02:16 PM

Kerrigan199, for me you pass pretty well. ^^; (althought I'm not good at this)

Kerrigan199 · 12-30-2008, 02:29 PM

hooraytheweird: Haha, awesome, thank you, and glad you like it. xD Also, thanks for the video! I've been looking for a good contouring tutorial, so this'll be really helpful. (:

Blood_Sword: Thank you, I appreciate your input. ^^

Haku23 · 12-30-2008, 06:05 PM

Ha ha I love that picture of you in drag! XD You can definitely pass a male!

maybeoneday · 12-30-2008, 08:40 PM

Hey, its my first post... just wanted to know the eternal question.. Will I pass? Just incase I'm THAT good and you can't tell... I'm a guy. I think my arms may be too muscular and my face is masculine too... and I've got the worst beard ever, but I tried. What do you think?

MilesEdgeworth · 12-30-2008, 08:41 PM

"In drag" is a fairly offensive term.

Do you think i could pass. Of course if I did a better binding? Also I planning to cosplay Sasuke soon do you think I'll pass and I am planning to loose weight do you think that will help?
