^ Well Said!
Particularly about the "attending conventions" part, as we are all so envious of your guys trip to AX. Smile

Though given my questionable life style, I'll probably die when I'm 27 so I won't reach to the ripen old awesome age.

That is an awesome idea! I wanna do that too except I'm donating my body to science.

I've seen a couple of people in their 40's and 50's cosplay, they're just rarer. A number of the more popular cosplay idols are older in my country too because they have the experiance.

Not in my opinion...

My Mum Cosplayed with me one year, One women pulled her aside and asked her "Arn't you a bit old for this?" We just laughed at her and informed her a lot of the people there were older than she thought (she figured everyone was about 14-15)

Think of all the awesome older characters you can cosplay when you are older XD

Ironically mum tried to talk me out of dressing up for the SCA, when I am probably younger than the average in the SCA. But then I train to fight steel at the local university club, making me one of the older ones there.

In all seriousness, I can't wait til I can afford my own workshop, maybe ten years down the line.

Then again, I'm more an item maker than cosplayer.

Seriously with the price of houses I would like to be able to afford a house let alone a workshop, and then the tools. Even with the naffed rental market to be able to rent one is hopeless. I knida have access to a friends woodwork shop luckily.

My list of make or buy keeps getting longer. An entire pavillion tent for example.

Also Tim, don't forget Paul has just been to SakuraCon. I would like to go to Sakura one day, eventually, if you are interested.
