I've been thinking and researching on this a bit and am thinking about doing a cosplay costume. The only problem is... I have four different characters that I could impersonate. There are pros and cons to them all.
Alucard
Alucard would probably be the hardest of the four. I can find pictures of his entire entourage, but assembling such a thing would be most taxing. However, this said, it would probably be the most rewarding character. I have not decided whether or not I should do the long or short haired version. If I do long, it will be with the hat, if it it short, no hat. The hat is kickass.
Alexander Anderson (Judas Priest)
This is the character I closest resemble. Somewhat easier to make than Alucard's theme, there are still hitches. One big problem is that I am no where near as tall as he is. Since his height seems to change every other scene, it may not be a problem.
Vincent Valentine
Easily the second hardest. The dress in and of itself is somewhat simple. Properly crafting the armored claw will be interesting, but his clothes are pretty plain. The con with this character is detail. With Alucard, I can find every detail of his attire in some scene or another... but Vincent's clothes are harder to pin. Few scenes in FFVII have detail shots of him. Most pictures I can find are the horrible ingame renderings of his character model. Also, there is a problem of the Advent Children Vincent Valentine. All the characters have changed, so should I do the classic, or the revamped version?
Jigen Daisuke
Oldschool, easy, badass. Nuff said.
