Have you ever felt that you cannot cosplay a character because your skin tone doesn't match up to what you see in your favorite anime, cartoons, video games and comics? Well this is the panel for you! Join Samurai Pizza Kitten and Moco Latte a duo of minority cosplayers who can help you overcome issues of esteem by showing you about people like you! We will discuss topics like 'facing your cosplay fears', 'finding the right characters for you (if you want to stick to characters that are your skin tone)', 'choosing color palettes that can help make your cosplay complementary to your skin tone' and much, much more! We are just here to help people fight the same fight many of us have had, by showing you all that there are others out there like you. No one should be afraid, or feel insecure, and that everyone should cosplay what they want! This panel is actually for everyone, we want to make everyone to embrace the skin they're in. Let's talk about cosplay and how anyone and everyone should do it! This is a feel good panel, no negativity here. If you cannot say something nice, do not say anything at all, or just don't attend! If there are any put downs that go on in this panel, you will be asked to leave.

We are planning on showing a slide show of minority cosplayers and bringing in costumes, props and wigs of our own as examples. We want this to be a discussion based panel where we first present and then have Q&A and open discussion. We are also inviting friends to share their experiences as well.
