With Anime Characters Database, you can enter a list of characteristics and search for someone you like the look or think you would suit appearance-wise. This website is also very handy if you already have a wig or some contacts and would like to use them again. It is an excellent resource particularly for those who want to make their own cosplays as you can see a lot more detail in them.
Hit up your local cosplay community for some fresh ideas! Just search your local area/city and “cosplay” or “cosplayers” on Facebook or Google and voila! These communities serve as hubs for general cosplay discussion, whether you need help with looking for something to cosplay, making a prop, recruiting members for a group cosplay, or if you’re curious as to what other people are up to. Many communities also host meet-ups which is a great way to make new friends!
