>>10914012Lol dude your child is an infant who cares if they’re a boy or a girl? At that age they all look exactly the same
>>10914117>they all look exactly the sameBaby racist
>>10914117I'm not gonna crossplay a 17 month old boy as a psychic little girl, I can't explain why it bothers me but it doesAlthough to her credit my wife doesn't care, so seeing her dressed as Yor might be worth it

>>10914097The only fame he's achieved is as a living meme, but he's so narcissistic and demented not to notice.Additionally, he should try to be less greedy and less of a liar
>mfw realizing cosplay is only worth it if you're attractive
>>10878507>implying you can't cosplay as an orc.saw some people with dwarfism cosplaying hobbits recently. absolutely based, play to your strengths.
>>10888966How grim
>>10893861What do you cos anon?
>>10908835>Learn the basics of skincareDon't really know where to start for this now that my eczema is finally controlled. Never really did much "real" skincare stuff because of the topical steroids I was on.
Wrong, OP, you're just pessimistic, I've achieved international fame with my cosplay.
Any good Latex / Vinil / Tight and shiny cosplays?
Does anyone own the Zerotwo suit from miccostumes/uwowo cosplay and opinions on the quality?
>>10914032I own the two suit! It's pretty good quality I must say but I'd suggest to buy a size bigger bc it's very tight and therefore uncomfortable to wear desu..
>>10914062this shit doesn't fit, dumbass. looks trash.
>>10914062you look like you smell worse before you put the suit on
>>10914062Uwowo has larger sizes, I wasnt a fan of the mesh sides/hands and the cheap sewed on details
Modern inspired by Victorian but we make it spooky edition.Last thread get archived: >>10851320Thread before last for some mysterious reason did not and is still listed on active threads (WTF jannies?): >>10756184Last two years these threads were barely active and and it took a year for each to reach image limit or get archived prematurely (WTF jannies?) but whatever.

barely anyone does military cosplays nowadays, and most of them are considered larping anyway. good news is that the market isn't saturated and ripe for the takinglong story short if you Google csgo cosplay you'd probably find me on the first result
>>10911760The pants are black cargo pants from a military store. The top is a black work shirt I found in a thrift store. Added the Umbrella patches.
>>10911737if you know your shit you could get a few more cosplays out of just the flack jacket i.e:>R6 SAS (Smoke/Thatcher/Mute)
>>10911053OP here again. I built Vigil's armour from scratch. It's my first time crafting anything. I had friends to help out but still.Gonna include the ERC-7 when I have the time.
>>10914128.close up
>>10911053I like the SCP Foundation a lot, so naturally I wanted to cosplay a Mobile Task Force. Did so for Gamescom 2023 and 2022, as well as Halloween last year. This year I'll attend two conventions. I've always seen other military cosplayers, SCP as well as others. This pic is from last year when I was still all black. A few components are on the way, since I wanna get it switched to dark multicam by the end of the month.
Anime North is only a month away, anyone else going but not buying a ticket this year?
can't wait to charge my JO crystal with my bros when i see the blue archive cosplayers
>>10914120actually, it's xa'amus xisters won't stand for this
does the truck do advertising? who does it? how did everyone find out about it?
>>10914124i found out about it when i was smoking meth in the back of the parking lot and gooning to lucky star
Does anyone else feel too old for anime conventions? The last couple times I've attended AN, I feel out of place even though I'm only 26. I don't know most of the stuff that's being cosplayed and I don't have much fun with the convention itself.
Old thread hit bump limit.My comm president is having her 40th birthday tomorrow. Wtf, I would have guessed she was like 25, but she has 2 kids who both cosplay Sonic th Headgod chracter
>>10914070I know that feel. I exclusively go for masked/helmeted characters so I don't embarrass my girlfriend when we go to cons.
>>10914069Haha I asked for his finest tap water last night after I got tired of drinking and he got a good chuckle out of it.
>>10914003once in a blue moon I get a certain burst of loneliness out of nowhere but I enjoy being alone most of the time. I do envy people that are sociable though it looks like they’re having tons of fun.
>>10914054I can and have, even my female best friend has given me nudes and been effectively naked in front of me before. I just have some stuff I'm into that no girl I've been able to find IRL is into.
>All my acquaintances from 90s anime and convention scene are starting to disappear or die in their 40s. >Dealers hall/artist alley has almost 60%-80% merch I don't recognize. Hardly anyone carries vintage anime goods. >Starting to get the age where it's really not fine to go to an anime con alone. I should have a wife and kids by now, or a gf again at least so I don't look like weird old dude at con. I'm not just getting old, I'm literally watching my era disappear from history. Feels bad man.
I've only seen one thread on this in the past, but it's getting into the peak time of year soon so why not see if there's any interest.>favorite designs/tailmakers (fin fun, mertailor, fin folk)>fabric tails vs silicone>the actual exercise component of swimming with a monofinI know there are mers on here and I'm trying to actually take the plunge and get a tail this year.
my merman tail is probably very dusty now
>>10904973Really wish I could have gotten one of the merbella ones. Sigh.
>it's summer againAny plans?
>>10913849Workout until i attain my ideal merman body
In December last year I bought some blue contact lenses for a convention. I didn't use them because I didn't have time to put them on. I want to cosplay any character (I don't mind cross-dressing) with blue eyes so I can use the blue contact lenses and the money I spent on them does not go to waste.
>the money I spent on them does not go to wasteI mean, the money you spent on those contacts is gone. Cosplaying a blue-eyed character doesn't bring the money back. You might as well just cosplay whatever makes you happy, regardless of the eye color.
>>10914063There are literally countless blue-eyed characters to choose from and you haven't given any further specifications as to what kind of things you're interested in cosplaying or even described the shade of blue the contacts are, so it's kind of impossible to answer.

>>10913986Excellent. How's the reaction so far? Which game?

>>10913760I'm ready, if a little nervous. The schedule's full of panels from all the regulars at other cons around here>i still think changing venues might be a gamble thoWhat other choice was there, other than leaving Dade?
>>10913850aw man wish i can tell ya dudethe macc was comfortable for the most part imo
what are the chances we hear anything about holmat before October
>>10914071It really was but thats what Mizu's for>>10914078Anything like what? Room blocks? I'd think it's before then
>>10912782What are the biggest draws according to floridians t. Out of towner
who's going? what are you going as?this'll be my first con since like 2007.
They'll be announcing the VA for Marcille (Senbongi Sayaka) next
>>10909723I got a room at the Travelodge by the Space Needle. Within walking distance of the con, has breakfast, pool and stuff. $200 a night, but split between con friends it's cheap. There are cheaper places further away.>>10909889Will message you. Not sure if we still have room.
>>10909660>people kept offering me drugs.This is a bad thing?
HELP. i have a hotel room booked, 2 tickets bought & registered for volunteering. my ride to the con just flaked on me. i have an extra ticket you can have and you can stay in my hotel room if you can give me a ride from the olympia or mccleary area.
I'll be attending on Saturday. Hope I can get some decent photos. Going in my RO Rogue cosplay since I haven't worn it in awhile.

>>10914064what are your comm's mods supposed to do if he's not part of your comm? do you think they can just run randos out of a public space because you don't like them?
>>10914085The person not being liked in question being an ugly sissy in an ugly dress, but whatever. They should've at least denied the picture imo
>>10914085They could ban the event host who invited him. If she's cool with inviting and hanging out with pedo sissie's she deserves to be banned. >>10914087He's not just a sissy he's a pedo who gets too handsy with the love live kids .
>>10913981This is why I will not join a comm.
>>10913981Holy shit I started at the left and thought "that's not bad" but going right it gets progressively worse and worse.
