Cosplay, especially at cosplay-focused cons like Dragon*Con, is almost exclusively about craftsmanship. Maybe late at night, after the kiddies go to bed, you'll see the Hot Chick Who Wants To Show Off who cosplays Mystique by donning a thong, blue paint, and high heels, but during the day and around the con, you'll see so many different kinds of people cosplaying, and everyone's excited because "OH MY GOSH THAT GUY/GIRL IS COSPLAYING SOMETHING THAT I LIKE! HOLY CRAP LOOK AT THAT THING THEY MADE!"

Also, best Harley Quinn cosplayer I ever saw was on the plus-sized side, and she was fantastic, because she took an overdone character and approached it with humor and originality and skill, and gosh darn it, she was adorable! I remember years ago at A-Kon, there was always a team of plus-sized Sailor Scouts. They looked fantastic, because they put effort into their costumes.

A lousy costume makes you look bad. A well-made costume makes you look good. It's really that simple.

Go for it, anon.
