OHH, omg, I totally didn't see the cane = lead pipe thing. xDD;; I just thought you meant to add it in as part of Mr. Green's sophistication thing. ^^;; My bad. :x But now that you mention it, I can see the lead pipe. =O

If it makes you feel better, Hime, I got that the cane was the lead pipe immediately. I saw it and thought, "She must be assigned the lead pipe."

I didn't even recognize that Ferra's dagger represented a dagger.

I really, actually, don't like the white in your avatar though. It just stands out way too much.

Okay, so what do you guys think of my avatar at the moment?
It's supposed to represent Miss Scarlett with the candlestick in the library. xD;;

I like how it looks as a cosplay, but I think it may be too simple for Project Mene. At the same time, I'm afraid to add too many items because then it'll look cluttered and nothing like Miss Scarlett. She's never worn hats or hairpieces (to my knowledge) and if I try to give her another handheld item, it looks like she's carrying too much. I equipped a boa earlier, but it's really bulky and doesn't look good with the library items I stuck in the background.

Any opinions?

As a non judge, it's hard to say. I do think it looks god as a cosplay, but it also feels rather bare as a mene outfit. I expect at least one judge will love it like this and one will hate it.

In other news, I just googled Miss Scarlett, and this one one of the representations:

This is officially my favorite Miss Scarlett ever. Miss Scarlett in the brothel with an umbrella.

@Cami: Lol, I bet that's just the prostitute's name.
I doubt that's an actual Miss Scarlett representation. xD;;

Trust me, I've found waaay too many porn star pictures while searching for Miss Scarlett references lately.

I think you should add the library background back Pix, and take out the bonzai and replace it with the other stack of books.

I personally like literal cosplays, so I like what you've got going. The judges will probably argue about literal vs. conceptual cosplays though, so I dunno what to tell you about that. It's a tough call. :sweat:

Last cycle, slow won the Planeteers cosplay with a less literal version of the character she was supposed to represent, but I got second with my literal cosplay. So yeah, I dunno.

Hows this?

I guess you could both see the priest version as the sophisticated/business man interpretation if you look closely xd

Sizz: I thought you should have won that round, but your outfit was also good as an outfit, It wasn't just a straight shorts and t-shirt role play.

That's true, it did have a lot more going on than just a basic outfit. XP

To me it seems like this round should be more literal
Like, they're actual players, and if you can really make your avi look like them then thats all the better. But its much easier to just throw a few things that represent them onto and avi and then clutter it up to look fancy.

I think of it more as a reinterpretation of the clue characters. I think if I were a judge, I'd rather see something that I think could be the character, if say we were to create a new Clue franchise on Mene, rather than a straight exactly what they wore in some other franchise outfit.

I'm oddly pretty open this time around. Literal or Mene-style. As long as it's in the right colors and suits the personality, I'm open to it (though I suppose I'd suggest one leaned towards literal). There are so many versions of the characters, I suppose.

Ohh, I remember the cosplay challenge from last cycle. xDD;; I personally would lean a little more towards the literal version, just because it's more challenging and slightly "truer" to character, but more loose interpretations are definitely interesting as well. :3

And Cami, I can only think of green ankle socks, but I dunno, the simple look is nice as it is, I think. xDD;;

If I change my layering will go bye-bye since the bustier was put back where it used to be. XD I suspect I'll be wearing this for a while until I get sick of it. Thank you though, and I'm really in no rush. :3

Really, Ferra? =O Awws, too bad, since that layering was real cool. =P <3<3
I didn't even notice the layering changes though till you mentioned it. xDD;;

Ferra, the bustier layering hasn't been changed. I checked on mine and it still shows that I have to unequip my red one to put on the one you have. I mean, I guess I could be wrong or whatever, but you should ask jelly about the layering to make sure before you change.

Oh really? :0 I just assumed since it was determined it was going to be moved back (or so I thought).

I'd rather not risk it though. XD;

EDIT: So what direction do you guys prefer? I made three different Clue outfits: Movie Mrs. White, Traditional Mrs. White, and my own interpretation Mrs. White.


I like the last one the most of course, but since it's far from a direct cosplay that makes it quite risky. :sweat:

Ferra, I think I like the second one the best.
I guess this makes me a fan of traditional cosplays, huh? :sweat:

I really like all three though, especially your own third one.
That one is really funny to me because I think of that quote you posted earlier whenever I look at it. xD;;
