The title says it all, cosplayers that did awesome cosplay but their career were cut short, as they suddenly disappeared without any notice.

I'm not sure how to feel about her being a furry, even though her fursuits look good on her...

>>10964183
hey, I did notice that some women in that are into fursuiting look like supermodels
like for example, Winfoxi, who did some Disney princesses cosplays long time ago and now dresses up in her fursona, looks gorgeous outside her costume and ironically also went missing a year ago, but for a darker reason, as she's ukrainian

I remember she had a couple good cosplays that got shared around a lot, but I can't remember what her name was. I found this in my files, but I haven't had any luck finding the source or remembering her name.

Do you guys ever like to go through YouTube and watch con and cosplay fandom videos from before the 2010's?
It's a hobby of mine. It makes me sad.

>I'm not sure I'd have the heart to experience what cons are like now.

not really different, honestly. You will still see sailor moon and DBZ cosplay. The demographics have only lightly shifted toward more females than in the past, but still mostly male and the same age group.

the only thing different really is that internet got even faster than 2013 and cons serving the purpose of a media distro hub was already on the way out. Thats pretty much locked in now unless you're looking for old stuff, or indie stuff, and even then....

Do you prefer to cosplay as more well-known or "underground" less known characters from more obscure media?
Historically all of my cosplays have been somewhat obscure game characters, at least in my region, very little people play Yakuza so the few people that recognized my Kiryu cosplay made me feel quite good

Yeah, it’s nice when I’m RE 2 Leon. Especially when Ada and Ashley cosplayers approach me. But there’s just something about being obscure character, and someone still recognizes you. I was pic related and the whole weekend only twice did someone know what I was (The group of Viking cosplayers were really hyped to see me.)

A mix of well known and obscure. Sometimes I go for well known characters and sometimes obscure characters. Really it depends on the mood and interest.
>>
>>10963012
Obviously obscure shit. No reason to get excited once you've seen the same costume twice per day. Only good thing about it is going to group meetups. Also obscure things actually let you open up conversation since everyone has talked about the big works to death already.

Yeah, pretty much. Too many retarded e-girls got into a watered down Menhara and a lot of Japanese Menhara wearers switched to Jirai. Another loss to the worst thing to happen to J-fashion.

Hey all, I’ve recently been going down the rabbit hole of wanting to dress up in kinda cute femboy-ish or feminine cosplay, but I’ve got kind of a muscly frame. Idk how to size things properly, or even if most cosplay patterns of that kind out there accommodate for my frame
Any advice on shopping for those kind of outfits? Websites to use/avoid, sizing advice, materials to try/avoid, characters that fit the bill, etc would be much appreciated!
Pic related is the kind of cosplay I’d go for, same kind of outfit and pattern

I think you should do it and not try to be feminine. I love men dressed in dresses or skirts but they aren't trying to look they they aren't men. Comfortable enough with themselves to do that.

I suppose the way I worded it in my post was less than clear, but the way you describe it is the way I mean!
I mean wearing clothes typically reserved for feminine bodies while I have a non-feminine body. I just wanna know how to make it look good on my frame
>>10965410
These are good pieces of advice, so I’ll likely try out some very tight clothes, cut/sew them in the general mockup of what I want, and see if I can make it work on my body. I’d imagine I’ll be using a lot of spandex or other stretchy fabrics to accommodate
Idk what kind of build I’d describe myself as, but pic related is me
>>
>>10965364
I feel like nowadays crossplaying is very accessible; if it looks good it looks good, but if it looks bad most people won't say anything because they don't want to come off as transphobic. So don't be afraid if your crossplay will look a bit off. Also you're putting a lot of thought into it, so the result will likely look better than half the AliExpress cosplays you'll see on con floors these days anyway.

I don't have any real advice for you other than don't assume they won't have your size. The sizes for modern womens' clothing range from little girl to hamplanet, so you'll have a better time finding something that'd fit you than you would have a decade ago when buff dudes were doing gag Misty crossplays.

>do men or guys who don't crossplay not get how much time and effort goes into that?
100% no. The amount of chronically online dudes who have no idea a girl is wearing makeup is staggering. So, so many posts will praise a girl for "not wearing makeup, like the natural face" when the girl is wearing HEAVY e-girl makeup, it happens all the time. Apparently unless a girl looks like a gaudy clown, they just assume the flawless poreless porcelain face is just how some people are (lel).
I cosplay with my GF and her makeup takes the absolute longest time to get perfect. I wear some makeup and even simple foundation/contour takes a lot of effort.

My younger sister's favourite hobby is dress-making. She can sew skirts, dresses, and more! She also enjoys wearing some of the uncommon dresses I see here in /cgl/.
I would like to purchase a Christmas gift for her based in this hobby, but she has the few important things I was thinking of getting her (sewing machine, yarn, threads, etc.). An article of clothing would be nice, but I wouldn't know where to begin.
Are there any fundamental gifts you would recommend for her?

Hijacking this thread, what's a decent beginner sewing machine? Gf wants one but she already had one and never used it so I don't want to splurge.

Given the birth rates, all the most developed and progressive countries are set to be extinct within a few generations, while backward shitholes like the Middle East are thriving at the same time. It's almost like you retards don't understand what civilization is or what makes it last.
