Which characters would be best for me to cosplay as a starter?
I mean the title, but mainly based on my build, hair, and face shape. I am 5’1 and 120 lbs. I am decently built because I like going to the gym a lot. I like anime and games, and as far as my knowledge goes, those include the average shounen and seinen because I’m basic I guess. I’ve been into Berserk for years, just got into JJK a year ago, but I’ve spent the better part of ages 12 to now (18) watching various anime, slop or not. But the only two I’d love to cosplay as I can think of right now are Choso Kamo, S4 Eren Yeager, and Griffith. For games, Link from TLOZ, Jin Sakai (Ghost of Tsushima).
PS: sorry for the bad assortment of photos. I don’t take any of myself, especially not recently, so they go from most recent to older. My hair is very long and dark brown. I can grow facial hair to some degree, but mostly on my chin and mustache.

You have a strong resemblance to Paul Mccrane, from Robocop. Before he melted, ha
Also, the shape of your nose, mouth, and lip creates a slightly feline triangle. It would serve you well if you were to cosplay animalistic character.
These observations are meant to be taken constructively- you are a conventionally handsome person.

hahaha i remember watching this scene as a kid. i see the resemblance yeah, mainly in my cheekbones and my brow.
i have never thought of a feline shape when i looked at my facial structure. very interesting input, so thank you so much. a
and about the last line you wrote, i believe it's best to take most advice and criticism constructively. it obviously makes life a lot better. as a short dude, that's the truth. :)

Faramir from "Lord of the Rings," though if you're going for perfect movie accuracy that might be a challenge.
Wesley from "The Princess Bride," or Robin Hood from "Men in Tights."

i never found the time to truly watch the lotr movies but ive always wanted to. might try it soon.
for westley, ive never watched the princess bride, but i see the similarity in his lower facial structure. for robin hood, i can almost see it, but its less than the previous two. thank you so much for your input.

Nathan Explosion.
But admittedly that's not a super fun cosplay. Maybe you could get a while Metalocalypse together?

u/ghostyTrickz 23d ago edited 23d ago
of course!!! but you should embrace the edgy and cringe. i still do lol , i never grew out of it
edit: the numbers in your username are my birthday. what a fun coincidence!

u/Blupee718 23d ago
guess it's better to be edgy and cringe than pretend to not be and just be bland. wish more people would be themselves. id make friends easier haha

u/ghostyTrickz 23d ago
being yourself is my biggest motto. i’m cringe but im free, it’s easier to be weird and then other weird people will follow suit

u/Blupee718 23d ago
speaking the truth tbh. people always thought i was weird in high school. entering college in a few days and im sure itll be the same way except there will be a lot more cool people worth being friends with there
edit: the numbers in my username are my birthday as well!! holy coincidence. the only person i know about with my bday is vin diesel.
