Own Characters (OC) and Own Designs: Is it Cosplay?

- It's Ketchup with Kirilee time!
At conventions you'll see own characters (OCs) and own designs of characters walking around - I LOVE THESE! I think the creativity is fabulous! However, when they are entered into cosplay comps, they don't always get the love they deserve, especially OCs, because the framework to assess it against is not as defined as a character taken straight from a movie or anime etc.
But let's take a moment to celebrate the cosplayers who let their creativity run wild!

The only cosplays I've ever done were OCs. I've never been to a con, or anything though. I just kind of dress up and make private tiktok videos. Yeah...
And honestly, that is awesome! Cosplay doesn’t have to be about going to a convention. :)
Oh good
once i went out dressed like a cruzader and i learned that my city is so boring xd, i want to do it again but with a own alien realistic design i am working on
Cool
That’s totally me!
I wish that there was a convention for OCs where you can dress up as your OC and talk to people about your OC and have fun being your OC and I would go to it
That sounds like fun ^_^ maybe you could organise a meet up at a con at your area to do just that
Yeah
Furry cons are sorta like that since everyone dresses as their own fursona, but it would be awesome to have a non-furry version of that
That’s so mecore
I cosplayed as my own character a couple times. Usually when I got asked who I was, I received almost an equal amount of "That's cool!" and "So you're not really cosplaying". I say, if you made an effort to dress up and love your look, then your outfit is valid
100% valid
Sure, your outfit is valid...
A valid outfit still doesnt make it cosplay. The only question that matters is... are you IN character?
Because if you are then yes you are cosplaying.... if not then youre just wearing a costume.
I did my own character because I'm new with that whole stuff.I even built a violin in real size,that's fun because there aren't rules
That is so awesome!!!
@@KirileeCosplay First of all it's very hard to think of an own story.But I can add any detail I want because nobody but me knows this character.This is the greatest thing,playing with your own fantasy!
Last week I started to add a sword. To have a nice surface I wrapped some wool around the whole foam sword and covered it with gold acrylic paint. I just added a few details to the story and it matched perfectly.The story now says her sword is out of unicorn hair because it#s the hardest material on earth. XD
@@camouflage823 COOL
I love original characters and designs because like you said, it takes so much creativity and commitment! I’m not so great at them myself but I love seeing them from other people and hearing their passion for it!
Alana Owlet absolutely! It is amazing amount of creativity and passion!
All characters were once, and still are, someone else's original character. They just made it popular!
So maybe you can do that with your OC, too!
That’s is a cool way of looking at it
im trying to cosplay my own ocs ive drawn several times and have an attachment to because i know them well.
im currently working on an oc names Lydia, who has a crystal power of some sort. i am going to try to make a bag for cons and such that looks like its made of gems to carry things in.
im really happy that other people like cosplaying their OCs!
Thats fabulous. At the heart of it all, cosplay is for costume and play - there are no set rules :)
@@KirileeCosplay Thats a relief I really wanna do cosplay and do my OC. But I was so worried people would get mad at me xD
Nah, most people will be chill about it and appreciate it for what it is. You might have some people confused about who you are, but just explain to them it is an OC if they ask and they should be fine :)
Oooooo your character sounds so interesting!
I feel that original designs are great if you love a character but don't have the skills or tools to make their actual outfit. Earlier in the year I did my own version of Kraglin from Guardians Of The Galaxy and it's now one of my favourite cosplays.
Advocate-No.267 that is super cool!
All I have done is oc's but I'm still new to the art. I'm currently working on a fairy-dragon hybrid oc and a saytor oc.
(Wow second to respond cool!)
TooSweet2787 that sounds so cool!!
I've never done an OC or an original design, but I have a feeling my latest cosplay make (live action Jasmine) is going borderline own design... I'm just tweaking components of the original costume slightly because I can't get the right colours, fabrics and trims for it.
Alicia Estelle sounds good! Remember to go creative if you want to go a certain way ^_^
I create a lot of original characters to the point that they have fan bases and it's sad that alot of contest will not allow them since they aren't "widely known" and that it's not "cosplay". It is and you do an amazing job explaining it!
It is mostly because competitions need a clear reference image to judge against. I understand their reasoning why
I wanted to make my own character called Rain, she is from my book I’m writing called Freak Show. They are a group of people who used to be good but all turned bad at one point. On a night that people called The Acid Plague Night, basically a night that there was an unknown chemical released into ocean, so due to evaporation and precipitation it was basically Acid rain that was poison. A girl obvs called rain was so sick of her family she wanted to breathe, so she went onto the roof and the acid rain didn’t kill her, it just brought out her inner freak. I so want to cosplay her. She has silver hair and bright green eyes. Tell me if I should cosplay her or not x
Do it! She sounds like a cool character and you’ve got a lot of passion behind her. That’s all it is about - having fun in costume!
honestly that is actually a unique character style never seen silver hair with green eyes-
I’m currently working on 3 cosplays! (I’ve never actually cosplayed) one is my own character, daphnie from scooby doo and the other is a joker. I just bought a purple suit for both joker and daphnie as they’re the same colour schemes. I’m also broke, so I needed a way to do multi use clothes for cosplay and everyday 😂 But I know that people will be able to tell who I’ll be, even if I wear the same suit. Because wigs, makeup and temporary tattoos are a life saver 😂😂😂
That is awesome! Have heaps of fun!
Now I can't decide whether I would wanna cosplay a danganronpa character or one of my ocs :')
Do whatever will bring you the most joy :)
No nooooo... you definitely said stalk!!! I rewatched that bit with subtitles on.... and that creepy face with spider fingers.. that said stalker!!
CallMeMrRook follow and support yes *cough cough*
@@KirileeCosplay noooo... no see... you can't just fob us off with that uber lame cough cough xD
I’m in middle of designing my own character, it kinda passes for Sky:COLT, but it is a original character(lore and all)- but if I feel the person will judge I just say it’s from the game, but an original character based of it
Just go for it!
I've been cosplaying Malis for years now. She has four or five different versions at this point and I'm working on a new set of armor for her in the next year.
My favorite thing to design are crossovers. I have Princess Merida as a Wildhammer dwarf from WoW and Timelord Ms. Frizzle. Currently I'm working on Grog from Critical Role as a female Diablo Barbarian. While this design is a mash-up of someone's art, it still has been fun to add my own spin to it.
I can understand the difficulty though with OCs. Unless you pull of something that is cool in your own right there is a tendency to sweep OCs under the rug. It's why I started making crossovers and themed cosplays because I could to the creative designing without loosing the recognition factor.
I hear all of that. I think I’m starting to enjoy doing own designs maybe a bit more than straight cosplay. There is an element of more creativity and freedom.
Well, I im thinking to start cosplay, but with a big difference. I want to make only my own characters (OC) So.. I didint even knew that cosplay is making our thoughts on this. I want to do it. Thank youuu👌🏻❤️
Awesome!!! Absolutely - bring you creations to life!
I’ve been planning on doing my OC, and after awhile I decided to Buy the wig and Suffer on doing my Costume(clothes) with my own design :)
How cool!
I have hoped and hoped to try and become my own oc but there’s certain things I need to consider, I don’t wanna mess up but I wanna try so badly but quarantine ruins a lot of things; I planned on buying face paint 3 and a half weeks ago but now can’t but I guess it’s better “safe then sorry”
There will be a time after the quarantine has ended. Don’t give up, just put it on hold for now :)
My first cosplay is actually and oc and I'm sooo excited to have it all together
That is so cool! Have the best time wearing it!
I have aroud 30+ fan characters/OCs that I've accumulated over the years purely because I LOVE using my creativity to write stories and build character worlds etc.
I'm hoping to cosplay some of them in the future as I'd love to see how I can bring them to life...
Awesome!
to be honest i prefer making and cosplaying my own characters because i can actually develop a really nice connection to them to where other peoples drawings cant its almost kinda like living in someone elses life i guess its kinda more different than cosplaying as characters that everyone knows and your own is something unique that somebody else cant necessarily understand since it hasnt really been shared with the whole world its pretty hard to explain from my own perspective lol
At the end of the day- if you are most happy with creating your own character and that development of that character over the appreciation a well known character from other people- then go for it! :) either way, it’s cosplaying in my books :)
I like to look at my clothes or while i'm at a mall look at some clothes, usually because it's easier to cosplay and it doesn't take a lot of time. I only wished my school didn't have uniforms ;-;
My OC(Charlotte) wears something an everyday Human would wear, But with a few tweaks here and there. Like her necklace has a key on it and has a sword and a halo. I wouldn't have the sword or halo, but i would keep the necklace. And i would just walk around campus looking "normal" until i come to my best friends and release our weirdness and roleplaying spirit.
Sounds fun!
Kirilee Cosplay I know, Maybe one day this summer me and my friends could maybe make cosplays for our ocs and do some weird stuff.
hmm honestly ima ask my principal if we could have a cosplay as your own Oc or cosplay as a character day cause i know in grade school we could dress up as a character from our favorite book and plus i know that some people in my school are too afraid of it so ima just start a day for cosplaying lol
Technically, all fictional characters started as OCs, so I agree with you ❤!
I actually started a trend (on accident) with my online community on my YT channel in which we take a quiz to get an OC name, and then we design and cosplay that OC, and it’s so much fun, I can’t believe it all started with me being bored in class and suddenly having a great idea that I started designing in class and kept on working on at home and now I have people hopping in on the trend that I started with no intention to start it and it’s lovely ❤!
Cool
I have cosplayed as my ocs multiple times and I’ve enjoyed it more! I’m currently working on my third oc cosplay and I’m planning on wearing it to a renaissance festival!
Awesome!
I make oc ever other day. I love making characters that fit my description and ideas more. From marvel to Broadway to American horror story.
That's great!
Its been a fantasy of mine is to bring my OC to life. I'm not an expert at drawing but I would definitely love to just make my own OC cosplay despite my lack my lack of cosplay experience
Just go for it! :)
i'm watching this as i brush my wig to cosplay my oc aura
LOVE IT!
now I'm confused can I be at a convention as my own character or not?
Absolutely you can! Cosplay = no rules (except common sense ones like no nudity etc.). Just be aware that you may not get the same reaction as someone who is dressed like iron man or another recognisable character. And that is A-OK!
@@KirileeCosplay ok
I've got an original design Poison Ivy that I did a year ago, mainly because I was a week before the con I wanted something new and I had some fabric in my stash that I needed to use lol
Keildra Kosplay a fantastic reason if I ever heard one! Excellent!
I only wanna cosplay my own characters because I have a super creative imagination and i have created over 100+ ocs i made and came up with a backstory for and i am gonna bring more and more when i get older also I'm glad to know it is cosplay cause if it wasn't that would be sad
Just remember to have fun with it!
@@KirileeCosplay i will ^^
bro i cant remember anything for school but i can remember every OC ive ever made
@@nahileamemes1543 omg i suck at remembering stuff but then I'm here like ok so over 100+ ocs and roleplays done yet i remember those... And it 2 in the morning for me ._.
Regardless of the character, original or not, there is only one defining factor that answers the question.
Are you IN CHARACTER?...
If you are in COStume and PLAYing as the character then yes you are cosplaying. If you aren't in character then you're just in costume which is also cool but words have meanings and meanings are important.
Thank you for your thoughts
I created Levenloze. It's a kind of dragon with fur and bones around his body, he acted like a children, who really, really love chocolate :') It take me a long time to make it, and it was my first costum, and even it wasn't perfect, I love it.
Now I do an another caracter I call Wolthazur, it's a living armor who dedicate his life to protect any form of life. He has two shields and four tails I do the mask but it need some arrangements.
Thank you for you video, because, in convention, it's almost cosplay of pop-culture. So I'm wonderinf if I doing cosplay or not
Also, Hope I don't make too many faults, english is not my native language,
anyway, thank you again ! ^^
They both sound like amazing characters! Well done!
I’m getting ready to cosplay my DND Druid, Sorcha. It’s been a fun journey to go from paper and pencil to the actual dress.
Cool!
I'm actually make my own design for Spider-Man more specifically the homemade suit I just love the vibe of this suit that was the first of many great suits ( which is why I probably love the Mk1 too ) but I thought I'd put my own spin own it
I love that idea
Im only 10 so I can't really cosplay yet but I would like to cosplay my OWN oc characters that I made. (cuz I am a really imaginative kid). I find cosplaying VERY cool :D
That’s awesome! Good on you!
I'm cosplaying one of my favorite oc's tomorrow for "Favorite Character Costume Day" at school, I'm so excited :D
Nice! Enjoy yourself!
I actually plan on cosplaying as some of my own characters that I made for my alternate multiverse for Undertale and I'm currently working on a heart necklace for one of my characters that I'm gonna cosplay as.
Cool
I want to cosplay, but i don't know how to sew(correctly), also because i'm young and my dad probably wouldn't let me... So doing an oc cosplay and staying home, is the best alternative for me :) I just need to stop putting so many details in them-
Experiment where you can and continue to learn :) sewing is a skill just like anything else.
There’s a convention coming up in my area in a couple of months and I have a mushroom elf oc and I really want to go as her and enter the competition. I drawings and designs of what she looks like and a bunch of information about her in general. I understand because she’s not from a franchise or popular character I could get less points but can I still enter competitions? I’m also fairly new to cosplaying and going to cons so I’m trying to learn as much information as I can. I also looked in the rules and stuff for the competition and I didn’t see anywhere it says you can’t enter as ocs. I hope this makes since what I’m trying to ask!
If there is nothing in the rules prohibiting you from entering an OC, then go for it! You may still get less points if there is an “accuracy” scoring section. But competitions are much more than just winning
@ okay! Thank you
I have lots of OCS and I'm cosplaying one of my clown characters and another next year.
What I'm doing for this year is my character Reihna. She acts sweet and caring on the outside but is VERY self insecure on the inside. She wears pink and white clothes and acts like a happy person. But when you know her secrets she has done things to herself and others that a lot of people would find concerning.
The other character is Jadien. She is a mime who works at shows. She does simple contortion and sings and dance when alone. But even though she doesn't seem to talk much she acts very very bitchy. She doesn't even smile much. She a lot of black and white so sometimes red if playing in a special event. She has an alter ego (aka true self) named Marilyn who works as burlesque dancer and a pin up model (which is also Jadien's second job). Marilyn is very optimistic and loves things that are sexy and pastel and cute. She loves to wear things that make her happy and doesn't care about anyone's opinion. However the reason why Jadien hides Marilyn is because the people in her first job (not including girlfriend) are known for spreading rumors and personal information. Which is why she puts on this bitchy attitude and keep things private so no one knows her other job.
These characters are both nice people but because of society they have to be two-faced people to blend in with everyone. I also have afew to do like Rosie, Isabelle, Jaylen and Brooke and I know they're going to be so much fun.
Great backstories!
@@KirileeCosplay As for others I just need to get used to cosplaying outside of Halloween.
I love your energy🥰😂
Thank you so much!
😂 looked this up because i want to cosplay my version of mc from the arcana because when i think about cosplaying the other characters i can't really decide who i would want to cosplay
Do whatever makes you happy- that’s cosplay ^_^
OC is still Cosplay. It doesn't matter if they're not part of the actual show or game or whatever. If you make it, if you put sweat, blood and tears and more; into the costume? It counts. So doing an oc cosplay, is still cosplay.
Well said
I have three characters I draw a lot and use a lot in my fiction stories, and I put together real life outfits for them. I like the idea of cosplay, but I don't watch a lot of anime or manga, so I'm glad OCs are 'allowed.' ☺
Do what makes you happy :)
I think about do a cosplay of my creepypasta oc
Why not? :)
@@KirileeCosplay I give her a hard outfit to make
I was making a slide for some of my OCs (they were all for a series i was writing as an assignment) and since you don’t rly get a lot of super fun assignments in ELA i was going all out for this one i was looking back through the slides when i realized i had an obsession with one character in particular her name was Liuelle and i ended up “cosplaying?” Her for Halloween 😂 and for the presentation i had
Fun!
3am last night i thought of my oc and ngl, its pretty good. I've never cosplayed before.
Go for it!
Its fun doing own charecter
Indeed
Yess ima start my own cosplay cause i imagine it :> but i dont got the confidence reeeeeeeeee
Just do it! Live without regret and have fun where you can!
I am creating my first cosplay right now, which is my OC and I am so excited!
Awesome work! I’m sure it is going to be great!
I was kinda scared because I was doing research about oc cosplays and lots of people say that’s it’s not cosplay I just did not want to deal with comments on TikTok saying ItS nOt CoSpLaY because I’m kinda sensitive to those kinds of comments so this helped cleared things out😊
Take it from me - I've just finished making a Tudor era version of Yoda - it's still cosplay and the right people will love it :)
And if someone doesn't like it, that's on them, not you. (Another reason why I steer clear of TikTok)
My first Cosplay was a My favorite D&D OC. Was thrilling but scary and people loved it because I put a lot of effort into it.
That is absolutely brilliant! Well done
I’m trying to cosplay as my own character, basically he’s an army person who’s just outright arrogant, and I’m not sure why but he just really likes unicorns. I might make prop guns for the cosplay, or just get a tiny unicorn lol. He’s kinda like a coconut, hard on the outside but soft on the inside, (arrogant but once you get to know him he’s just straight up caring). I have the entire outfit in my closet and all I need is a wig and maybe a helmet. Oh yeah and maybe a walkie talkie or somethin.
That sounds fun! However, be careful playing the character in public. Arrogance doesn’t go down well :)
Kirilee Cosplay Okay! Thanks! I’ll try to bring out his nice side more!
:O you should get like a unicorn charm and put it on one of the prop guns actually that would probably look a bit weird i dont know your choice-
Nahilea Memes Ooo good idea! I might do it!
I'm wanna cosplay Lily Huli(my pfp/my fox gurl/main character)
But I need the shirt,vest, contact lenses,scarf,tail and ears,wig,make up,sharp fangs :'3
I really want to cosplay her ^^ I'm trying to find people that can help me with the wig and clothes
That is awesome! At the end of the day it is all you :) so make it happen!
a lot of times with characters that are a bit bland, I like to change the design for the character. (Because I must look as flamboyant as possible lol) Still keeping the same color pallet and similar layering, and still recognizable. I think it’s a very fun experience to change character designs but even more impressive to create an entire new character! I have the utmost respect for those who can bring their own creativity to life!
I absolutely agree
I’ve never done a completely original design but I always choose an outfit for a character based on something they wore in the cover art or in just one scene 😅
That is equally as challenging!
I have an OC I keep changing, I’m gonna improve her storyline but stop changing her when I start cosplaying her! Btw her name is Miko.
Good luck with it all!
omg i love you and your channel you mad me happy to be okay with cosplaying my OC
I am so glad! It’s a hobby so at the end of the day, it should be fun!
I really want to try cosplay, and I was curious if I was right that cosplay could be your own OC. Maybe I'll try it, we'll see.
Good luck!
I actually have a cosplay for my MHA OC in the works. He's a cartoon jester named Pierbaka and he'll be interesting to bring to life. Not 100%, since I'm too tall, but still!
I'll be doing his sports uniform look since it's easier than making his hero costume. And I can just buy the sports uniform so I can do a less work. Hm? Yes, I'm lazy.
If it works, it works
I want to cosplay as a character I made but I was so scared of trying it out-
I want to cosplay as a little reaper girl. She haves green mud-y hair with a little hat, a weird looking dress and a cool lookin stick.
She was made inspired on a music that kinda of is a girl telling you to die??? I guess???
And that's what she does :D
She atracts people to death- and a lot of angels, actual reapers and etc tried to tell her "hey, you are making it all worse" but she is a kid and she won't stop because it is fun to her-
I don't have any type of material to actually cosplay as her, so I think I won't insist too much on the idea ;u;
If you want to do it, just do it :)
I'm thinking about *possibly* trying to cosplay as one of my OCs, Joanna, who became a mercenary after her boyfriend was killed and her right eye was shot out, but her outfit is expensive as hell, so I have to wait until I have the money.
Fair enough! Or just start building/ collecting parts of her outfit :)
Im an origional cosplayer on tiktok and twitch and im slowly making my way to youtube and trying to make some friends here 😅 i know this is an older video but its honestly a great one! Cosplay is about having fun and expressing yourself weather its an anime, game, or movie character or your own. It is cosplay and it is valid and slighty less expensive lol 😆
Indeed
I recently did my own character, and I ended up liking them very much!
I did lots of drawings of them in various outfits, and they seemed to fashionable and colourful to me and I wanted to did a cosplay of them!
Still thinking of a name, though..
I'll edit the comment after thinking of a name
That sounds awesome! You are having fun and that is all that matters
I've made multiple OC's but I don't really have the right stuff to make them with. I have a tik tok account and I have posted two videos of my OC but the rest is just me messing around. What can I do to make a good OC?
A good OC is relative. The only person who will fully understand you OC is you.
But the devil is in the details. You want an impressive costume? Make it detailed and interesting
I'm making my own oc right now 🙃
Yay!
I'm in elementary and I want to make my own character and I will cosplay it ❤️
That’s awesome! Go for it!
Yes I am first!!! Also thank u 4 updating I like your videos have a wonderful Saturday
You too
My oc ^ - Ally Laufeydattir is a Loki Variant oc. She's different than Sylvie, and I am so dressing up as her.
Cool! Love that idea
I have a oc that is called cherry blossom and her shirt is a red and black turtle neck front top and booty shorts with bangs and yellow hair clips and a long pink raincoat
Cool! Sounds fun and easy enough to put together!
:)
The main reason I’m practicing sewing again is so that I can sew my Jojo OC’s costume designs 😅
That’s cool
My cosplay is on the way!!
Yay
I want to make a cosplay of my oc. She’s just a basic anime girl but i really want to make her.
Go for it
im new at this and i am trying to do my own ocs im kinda nervous and all i dont wanna do anything wrong
As it is an OC, you can not do anything wrong :) just go for it
@@KirileeCosplay ty soo much imam try it tm but i dont have any wigs loll i am just gonna use my own hair till i get one
Fair enough :)
I'm planning to cosplay my own character named Kitsune which means a mythological fox
Cool
Aha. And now we've come to the point where cosplaying preexisting characters in some time will be the thing where you as a cosplayer would need to pay the creator of this character to cosplay them
So now let's come to this topic again:
Cosplay OCs. If the fandom is your own - even better.
Cosplaying OCs will be free, and their canon look is only up to YOU as their creator.
Create OCs. Cosplay OCs.
Here we are at 2021.
I truly hope it doesn’t come quite to that extreme- I think we are a bit off from that still, thankfully.
But the creativity is the best!
I loosto do oc cosplay with my high school crush. I was here Ninja assassin' and she was my wolf goddess. I reallyd she got me into cosplay. And I think oc cosplay is my favorite it was oc tik Tok cosplay
Cool!
Thanks
Pleasure!
Yes like for example you have an anime oc you can go to an anime cosplay convention
Yes.
Thank you!!! I’ve been watching them on TikTok and feel so completely inspired but I just want to make my own character but I’m afraid of sharing because I don’t want to offend anyone
Why are you scared you will offend someone with your oc?
Because I don’t know anything at all about cosplay, like is there an etiquette... etc
Nah- just go for it :) the hardest is the start!
Kirilee Cosplay thank you ☺️
only tochu off you , like this sou much thank you
I am not sure what tochu is?
Yes because cosplay means to dresses up and act like it
Yep
I have 7 Marvel OCs😅
Yay!
I have like 10 ocs but never cosplayed them, mostly of them as a male version of me. ._.
Cool
So OCS are characters you make up?
Yes :)
I cosplay my own harry potter charters
Yay! That is a fun fandom to have an own character in
I've played rpg for years and have end up wanting to dress as those characters because I become very devoted to them. I stopped playing one because I cared more about her getting her happy life even if it meant her leaving the party.
At least she had a happy ending
It's hard to cosplay a character that has steampunk wings if your own and only steampunk wings you have are a bit broken lol
I really wish i could just buy steampunk wings from amazon instead of a mom making them lolol
Why don’t you make them rather than your mum
I would love to cosplay my OCs but they are all so complicated and I’d rather cosplay a character anyway
Do whatever makes you happy
i'm making a yandere OC, her name is kaede and i made her outfit and bought her wig. And she's a neko.
Cool!
I want to cosplay my ocs but I'm short and female with long brown hair and most of my characters are tall with dark hair and are guys. I really wanna cosplay my oc Novice. If your curious my Tumblr name is @asylumchaotic2 I don't post often on there.
Cool! I say still go for it
I want to cosplay as a completely made up character that I had in my dreams 😅is that considered a cosplay?
Sure!
I even cosplay as my sister
That is… a thing?
Me: “So I can do my oc yay!”
Me: “Wait. I don’t have one…”
It can develop over time
Me: seeing a con in New Zealand in 2 months
Also me: oh I forgot Auckland has corona- *sad*
Yeh- I think we all feel that pretty straight to the core
I have a character I made and yes I do cosplay her and it is cosplay
Cool
Most of the characters I want to cosplay are oc's😂😂
Nothing wrong with that
I cosplay and post on TikTok I got asked who am I cosplaying as I said I created my own characters a girl just put ....k she even asked why I wear a wig on a wig. I do wear wigs to go out it’s lace so it’s glued down but when I cosplay I put the colored hair over my puppy dragged off the cosplay wig I thought it was funny ig she didn’t
You don’t have to explain your creative choices to anyone else :) this is your art, your expression and for your own fun. :)
