Are you saying that you're wider than KITT?

OMG 0_0

[math-camel.livejournal.com]

MTE. I doubt you can be too fat to cosplay a car. Unless you're that awkward range of heavy where going as a car slides from self deprecating to mean. Or if you think a sports car should be humanized as a sporty/skinny person. But again, it's a car. Those things are huge.

[writerserenyty.livejournal.com]

OP said "humanized as a woman" so I'm assuming she's thinking of a sexy outfit, but it's car-themed?

Why is everyone in this community so delicate. I feel like we should have a 'fragile- handle with care' disclaimer on this place.

[megalomaniageek.livejournal.com]

Who in their right mind takes cosplay that seriously? I mean it. You are dressing in a costume because you are a fan of a show. It is an inherently silly thing to do, so taking it seriously to the extent that it is no longer fun, I just...what? No.

Nobody is too fat to cosplay anything unless they're too fat to function. Nobody is too short, too tall, too thin, too fat, too male, too female, too poor, too anything to dress in a costume for fun unless it is physically or mentally harmful to you somehow or if you are somehow otherwise incapable. Go have fun.

[elica.livejournal.com]

Oh, you've never heard the comments on fat people in here, in other communities, or in RL, have you ? They're cruel. I understand why someone would be afraid to cospay because of these people.

[megalomaniageek.livejournal.com]

Oh, I have. I definitely have. Being a fat person who cosplays, who cannot sew garments for shit on top of that, I am well aware that people do take cosplaying way too seriously. That's why I specified that nobody in their right mind takes cosplay that seriously. Because it's just dress-up.
OP specifically mentioned being scared of being a "bad cosplayer," not fear of criticism from assholes. I honestly believe there is no such thing as a "bad cosplayer" if everybody's having a good time. Anything else is just mind-blowingly ridiculous. (This is not to say I have a problem with people who take their own costumes seriously and put a lot of time and money and effort into them. I consider that part of the fun because it's entirely optional and should be exclusively based on personal standards of excellence.)
If one chooses not to expose themselves to the possibility of ridicule than it's wholly understandable and entirely their choice. But they're not being ridiculed because they did anything wrong, it's because the people doing the ridiculing are assholes.

You are never too fat to play a sports car.

[danaphilip.livejournal.com]

Don't listen to the fatphobes. Cosplay who you want.

[hermione-vader.livejournal.com]

All you need for Murdock is a baseball hat, a smart aleck T-shirt, a leather jacket, khaki pants, and a pair of Converse. Billy can be your accessory.

[noforcenosound.livejournal.com]

hahah a+

[veronica-rich.livejournal.com]

Or a trash bag.

[cyren-2132.livejournal.com]

I maintain that some of the best cosplay is made not by being a "perfect" visual recreation of the source but by being true to the spirit of the source while adapting what needs to be adapted to fit the player, whether that adaptation comes by way of genderswapping, sizing up, sizing down or anything else.

And also, too fat for KITT? Whaaaat?
