I had an epiphany. XD;
My former 7 sins project (FMA) after close scrutiny had proven to be unrealistic. (Where in the world do you get someone to go as Greed?! O_o) So I decided to just let it die a quiet death and start off another photoshoot project that's more possible/realistic.
I got caught with the Code Geass flu (other than catching real cold inducing germs from a certain someone at the time of this writing... >_>) and thought to myself,
why not right?
Of course, the costumes to be procured will be on your own account. ^^;; I'd pay for everyone if I had the money but I don't. T_T But don't worry, we'll help each other on the props and weapons. For those who want to wear wigs, let's help together find our wigs and such. Resources et al will be shared to help each other.
Since the costume and reenactment of the character are going on to be all on your own account, it's okay if you choose to wear the costume outside of the shoot and into conventions, etc. Even join competitions if you like. But I (as in kururu) won't be with you for the competition. I'm a costripper by heart and no way will I join competitions... T_T; So if you guys have too much fun with your chara and end up wanting to join stuff, go ahead. I'll watch you if you guys ever go for it! ;3
Anyone can join the project. Whether you're from CCC or not; an indi or affiliated with a cosplay group... It won't matter. After all, this is a photoshoot project. XD;
And being realistic, I'm not expecting ALL THE ROLES to be filled in really. XD; That's just insane. So the most I'll have is just the main characters and so. If we get to five filled up and sure to go roles, I'd be very happy. Since admit it, almost all the OCS in Geass are interconnected so we can always come up with any particular combination. XD So even if we had say: Lulu, Kuu, Rakshata, Sayoko and then Arthur---surely we'll come up with something there!
If you're crazy enough, go ahead and get up to two roles for this. But remember, twice the costs of making! @_@;

MAJOR NOTA BENE TIME!
Regarding Roles:
***Scale isn't very important. It's okay for Kuu and Lulu not to be exactly of the same height. Since these are photos, we don't need to be so nitpicky about things. But... come on, if Nana-chan is way taller than Lulu that's going to be a problem. Just enough/average scale.
***Until we start, we'll just put roles that have been claimed as 'reserved'. Start as in starting doing the real thing/having photoshoots. In case someone backs out and stuff. : / And oh, understudies/doubling will be okay. But not more than 1 for a role. We can't have too many Kuus running around---or else I'll crack some Kage Bunshin jokes about Euphemia having a hard time keeping up. XD
Regarding Hair:
**It's advisable you copy your character's hair as closely as possible.
**If you have difficulty finding wigs, let's all try to help each other somehow. I know there's SM's Sathura but frankly, they only update rarely and not all needed styles are all there. T_T;
**We'll discuss if we'll all go in wigs or not still.
Regarding Costumes:
**If you already have the costume, then awesome sauce!
**If you don't have it yet, then we'll have it made when we're all set to go.
**It's more advisable if those who'll be in 'uniform' will all have their costumes done at once and by one tailor/seamstress or with just like (not similar kailangan lahat pareho) items to be used. (From the fabric, clips and zippers if ever.)
Regarding Geass Sigils and Eye Colors
***NO NEED TO BUY CONTACT LENSES. We can easily have your eye colors changed in an image editing software. But I won't stop you if you will. O.o
Regarding Photographers:
**We'll figure this one out ONCE we're all at 50 - 80% done at the preparations.
