How tall should I be to cosplay Dick Grayson?
How ripped should I be?
What should the suit be made of?
I mean I could probably set aside 1500 for a tailored leather suit... but I dunno...

I wanted to Nightwing but I'm too skinny. So I chose New 52 Red Robin (Tim Drake). I'm 6'0 (And about ~157-160lbs), so I had to choose a taller robin anyhow. I still gotta work out to fill out the the suit better, but I'm gonna have to make do with my current body for a party on the 13th and Dallas Comic Con on the 20th.

At least you got a decent body, and Matt did too. The problem is, black wigs mixed with storebought pieces sometimes are unflattering, inaccurate, or just plain awkward looking.... so plan ahead.

I'm just going to dye my hair a much darker brunette since I already have RR's haircut/length.. and I'm making my own costume.

Haha yeah the only gay on CGL I think at this point. There was Comic Con back in May, but now there's a second one thats "Fan days" but is pretty much the same big guests as the original like Stan Lee lol. 3 days, etc etc. So this will be my first con as long as I get Robin finished. I'm going out to Dallas to buy fabric tomorrow because Joanns didn't have a red I liked.

How tall are you? Nightwings supposed height and weight is 5"10 and 175 lbs. Also for the suit it depends on which one you want to make!

Hnnnggg dat Nightwing.

So, is it acceptable for NightWing/Robin cosplays to be dark brown haired? Most the cosplays I see of them (Even the good ones) just use a dark natural brown, which was my plan to dye.

>> No.6265470

>>6265452
Wish it had a better paintjob (unless this is a WIP). Looks awesome otherwise.

>>6265462
I think it depends on your skintone. I thought the pure black of Matt's wig kind of clashed with his complexion, although otherwise it was okay. A more natural black probably would've worked better, and I know some wig stores definitely carry a warmer/lighter black that actually looks brown.
