Tan skinned anime girls?

Well, I'm a tan skinned female, not too dark, kind of on the lighter tan. I want to cosplay really bad, and in my group they picked the anime death note, apparently I don't really believe I can pull off any of the death note characters; so I was wondering if there were any tan anime girls that could be a second option to cosplay as. Not too revealing though, and by too revealing I mean nothing close to absolute nudity. My hair color is a dyed brown black color, and I'm 5'7'', I'm slender and I have brown eyes.

Well, There are pale body paints and powders to alter the color of your skin. I had a BF who had lovely tan skin and used thater make-up and became pale like the goths. Though with different amounts of make-up you can get different results. But, if your looking for tanned skin, try something exotic, like Isi from Yu-Gi-Oh! I've got a Millian pics of her ^^;

True that but wasnt there a girl in Tenchi Muyo? She's tanned skin? Just forgot her name. She has blue eyes and blonde.

Depends exactly how tan you are, but I think even with a light bronze complexion, you'd be excellent as:

Urd from Ah! My Goddess

Or Black Rose from the .hack video game series

Merle, Nariya, or Eriya from Escaflowne.

You probably know that Merle is the pink-haired, obnoxiously-high-voiced one. The other two are of the same race of cat (leopard?) people, but were rescued by Folken. (Maybe a spoiler, but not really an important one.)

Merle!
Younger version
Profile of Eriya
They look a bit odd. Then again, so does everyone else in Escaflowne.

Um

Momo is a good choice. She also has a lot of cute outfits as well since I watched some of the anime as well.

Yeah theres a few if you know your anime. BUt most anime have a tan or dark skinned character one way or another. Some even From Egypt.

If you are a male Uub from DragonBall Z and GT is one.
Also Mr. Popo! XD I wore his outfit one day in school! It was funny.

Just thought I would tack these on here so when people have a similar question in the future they can have a more complete list~! :D

yoruichi shihouin from Bleach:

Villetta Nu from Code Geass:

Rakshata Chawla also from Code Geass -

Both of the girls from geass are side characters, but are both really cool and IMO recognizable, especially villetta.

Another character you can do is Ed from the t.v. show "Cowboy Bebop."

But just so you know, you don't HAVE to do characters who have the same skin color as you. ^_^ Skin color, sex/gender, body shape, disabilities, etc. don't matter when it comes to cosplay.
