I ventured into this not too long ago and you don't need to start off where you see the professionals are at. Most con goers that do this use whatever they have available.

Start with characters that have more simple design and work your way up. My first cosplay was killua from HxH cus he wore regular clothes. I just put on a wig and added purple and white felt to some old shoes. All I used was a hot glue gun. Really simple.

Now that I've done a couple different ones I'm branching out and tried a cosplay that needed to use body paint. I learned about using hairspray as a sealant so it doesn't wipe over everything. I'm picking up little tidbits here and there but I do it for fun and nothing serious. Not sure what route you want to go with it.

I'm pretty frugal too so I don't really have a hankering to go too far with it.
