suggest anything lolz
>>10969107I could well see it under different circumstances, but also those posts are spread out by almost 2 years. I can't really see someone giving a damn for that long over something with such a subtle and minor payoff. Who knows though? Log-posting has being sustained on /b/ for what feels like a lifetime.
>>10969108>can't really see someone giving a damn for that long over something with such a subtle and minor payoffnever underestimate the power of autism. Consistent "I'm a silly girl x3" typing pattern, namefagging and bumping at page 10. Are any of these smoking guns? No. do they do anything to weaken my case that they're the same person? Also no
>>10969107looks a lot like that to me 2bh, so timestamp or GTFO should apply there
>>10968919reminderthese threads are b8 until proven otherwise with a timestamp
>>10969112Yeah this. Also I'm half backtracking here-- the two threads that say "need cosplays ideas" then list height are the same person. Those aren't up for debate

What keeps you coming back to cons? Even /cgl/, as small as it is, shows there's a billion possible combinations to explain: "Why?" Some answers, but definitely not all, would be>Cosplayingsolo, group, admiring, meetups, photography>What the event itself offersGuests, shops / artist alley, rave, game room>The social elementParties (unofficial), hookups, meet new folks, mutual friends flying in from different areas>Hanging outPeople watch, the weird experiences only cons can provide, that one time in the year "the gang gets back together"And of course any reasons I forgot to include are always encouraged. The floor is yours, gulls.
>>10968655Got some scheduling conflicts with a con on the same date but I'm definitely going to go next year.
>>10968674Whichever one this is, Colossal's better and I 100% guarantee it. Even then, you've still got three more chances this year with East, Texas and North
>>10968678I went to ColCon North and it's one of my favorites. Hits the right spot of rave energy meets cozy, especially if you're staying at the resort itself and even being blind drunk, I felt pretty safe oddly enough.Going again this year for another rager but hopefully their panels aren't as mediocre as last years.
>>10968409ThisEvery show i go in hoping to find the one relationship that lasts longer than a weekend
>>10969077To me, CC is a hotel sized party with a convention as an excuse. I never even bother with a ticket desu. North is also the only one I've never been to but fully intend to one day. Good to know It's worth it
reviving bc the previous thread from a while ago got nukedwhat's everyone's thoughts on cosplay photography in 2024/the foreseeable future? it seems like the amount of bullshit we have to put up with as photographers in the cosplay scene only increases day by day and the cons outweigh the pros
>>10964232What do they mean by "unsafe"?
>>10964011A simply "Hi, can I take your picture?" is enough 99% of the time. You can add things like saying you like the costume or the character. People like if you can recognize and name who they're wearing. Do:- Say thank you and smile afterward.- Look for cosplayers who are standing around not doing anything, they're probably waiting for someone to ask.- Have a few poses ready to suggest in the back of your pocket in case they're new and don't know how to pose. - Be mindful of the level of activity around you and them. Having a conversation can be welcome, but if there are a lot of people also taking photos it's best to move on quickly. Watch the foot traffic level in the immediate area and avoid blocking walking paths for more than a few seconds.- Look for group public photoshoot meetups on the event's discord or forum. You basically stand in a row with other photogs while the cosplayers take turns posing in the center,The few don'ts to remember are:- Don't approach someone for a photo while they're eating.- Don't ask for a photo when they've already taken off their wig or some other major piece of the costume. - Don't take it personally if someone says no. They're probably just tired or they have to hurry to reach a scheduled event.
I still love doing it just it irks me some SEA con photography "culture" increasingly being prevalent at my local cons. Cosplayers coming explicitly to just get a few photos or vids for social media then leaving, and photags with zero spacial awareness trying to camp parts of the con floor with some mid af setup.The latter is at least fine when theres a designated area, just I like my cons being more than a dim background for some thot's xiaohongshu post.
>>10964232any have am mirror to this google doc?
>>10969031weaboos keep complaining that other cons should be more like asian cons, and that's what happens in asian cons. it is strange that they go to cons like that instead of just doing it anytime though.
>be me>con this weekend>feel I am tool old (29) and need to hang up the costume>get invited to con, birthday sucked so say might as well >we all do some basic leftover cosplay nothing big >meet my /v/ros and /g/eeks all about the same age outside one guy we will call Steve>steve is 36 became a /fit/ faggot not really buff doesn't even have a six pack and really isn't like what you see on /fit/ but w/e>faggot does crossplay(love live, miku, etc) for memes he's not even 6ft like the rest of us>36 year old faggot somehow getting more attention than anyone despite being way older than us and barely fit like has good arms I guess>day 0, friday, saturday drunk and bonucing between room parties like he's a college frat person like a fag>no one is even asking his age even see some girls flirting with him who are probably like 24>meanwhile our group is basically ignored(we were doing old cartoon network stuff and my friend was doing a TACO meme)>even when people sobered up people were like "Oh hey steve!" What the fuck gives? I'm sobering up at the airport right now and looking back this just makes me more pissed off I stopped doing cons because everyone was saying "25 is too old for cosplay" and covid kinda solidified that. I don't get how he wasn't seen as a creep or divorced dad. Are women and zoomers actually this fucking stupid? Why should some faggot who is 36 get more attention than people who aren't giant faggot shitposters. He's too old right?
>>10955089if your ugly then you shoudnt go to cons at any age
Maybe stop being an jealous and insecure hater, espeically hating on /fit/ people (hit the gym and/or watch what you eat, fat fuck). Perhaps you'll have more fun that way.Also, your first mistake was listening to bitter miserable people.
No doubt OP the pissy fag abandoned ship on this thread ages ago but the same crew here: >>10954937 will be at AFO again with the same setup. Please come by and see it's NOT a waste of your time. We toast the first drink of the night to Steve the God King
>busted old gramps finds out age doesnt actually matter and the problem lies with himWhy does it keep happening?
>Just stop being insecure! No one actually cares!Biggest lie on the face of the fucking earth don't fall for it OP.

Thank you so much #5349 for the card match! i appreciate that u added a gift even if it was just a card match, will definitely use the headband in the future. I think the dog design is so funny and it made me smile. The candy was tasty and a new thing to try, as well as the apple nail stickers- such a thoughtful touch that I can already imagine the fun designs I'll create with them! I hope your holiday season has been great. Thank you again.
where are the rest of the gifts?
I’m going to guess this is from my gift Santa, there was not a note to let me know- but Santa thank you so much! I love my gifts and wow.. a whole dress, I definitely was not expecting that. It’s so pretty with the roses and green gingham. The Moomins and Chief keychain- I have never seen him on a keychain! I put it on my keys immediately. The Moomins are on my computer desk so I see them everyday. Thank you so much Secret Santa, Happy Holidays - #4100.
>>10966078>>10966080Hi, could you share your ID number, as well as the ID numbers of the people who sent you these gifts, if you have them?
Thank you so much for the gift #3879! I'm so sorry to post it so late. I'm incredibly happy about your amazing gift and it's more than I ever expected. You picked out the perfect items. The h.naoto and Baby items match my style perfectly, I always wanted to get AP arm warmers and this Hello Kitty bangle. The sanrio gifts and the sweets were really lovely too. Thank you so so much!!!
Are aliexpress vkei/anime wigs good?t. EuropoorKonnichiwarts looks pretty cool in them.
>>10968787They are low quality but can look decent enough if you treat them with care and brush them a bit.
March 13-15, 2026 Walter E. Washington Convention CenterI haven't seen one and it's a little more than a week away...https://awesome-con.com/
Bump:3 anyone going?
I went last year or the year before that. Was nice, saw Andy Serkis who made the gollum voice for my wee sister.I've never been to any other convention before, I was surprised at the volume of anime-related stuff. But I guess that's to be expected by people who touch grass more than I do.
>>10968874Yes , but only to document the convention and take hall photos.
March 6-8, 2026 Baird Center Milwaukee, WI Do you have a cosplay picked out yet?Any particular events or panels you're hoping to catch?What part of the convention floor are you most drawn to?Are you traveling in from out of town or staying nearby?Will you be attending solo or with friends?
>>10968846first time?
Going with 2 friends, same con group for the last few years, all old as balls.Hoping I can scrape together the last bits of my Pure Vanilla cosplay for the con, but odds are low so it might be a super casual con.Swap meet will be great, got a lot of junk to unload. Other than that nothing stuck out too much, 'Hear Me Out' might be fun just to hear people get really passionate about obscure or 'weird' series.Hoping the guy with the custom scenery figs shows up this year and has another good garden/flowing water Holo. I'll bite the bullet and buy it asap day one because all the Holo's he makes sell by Sat morning.
>>10968851First time since a certain... event happened. Mainly going solo to avoid all that noise is my hope.Looks like it's going to be shitty rain all weekend, at least my hotel is close by
>>10968864What was the event?
Anything going on today Day 0? Who all there?
>ummm whats wrong with cosplaying a character from a series you haven't watched?Unironically how do you respond without sounding mad?
10968913Hey thanks for the bump earlier! I was going to let it die but I guess the board has other planst. OP
>>10948089>>ummm whats wrong with cosplaying a character from a series you haven't watched?nothing, japanese do it all the time. you sound like a 'muh appropriation' tranny
>>10968954So if the Japanese started eating cat turds (not even in the realm of impossibility) you'd say it's okay too?You sound like a mouthbreathing retard
What if I'm cosplaying a dumb e-thot who cosplays characters from series she hasn't watched for attention? Also what if I like a show's art style but not the actual plot?
>>10948089I cosplay Chat Noir. I only watched the movie. The show is pretty hard to sit through.
who should i cosplay lol im trying to get into it
>>10968659>>10968798Tomoko.
>>10968799Ooohhh like bad at cosplayYes OP, I second this
>>10968798alcohol or cocaine?
D.Va
>>10968798tell me i havent seen your face on /lgbt/, probs spewing some ngmi junk
I'm unsure if I should go to this con and most of it comes from the fact that I'm not sure what to cos. I'd appreciate if one or more people would be nice enough to look at a few pics of me to recommend characters, I'm not sure who to try and I'm equally unsure how to pull it off since I'm somewhat new to the hobby, so recommendations to that are welcome too. My Discord handle is mustard1863. If that's a no go, I can post stuff here as well, but I'd prefer to stay somewhat anonymous here at the very least.
>>10968981Surely you have video games or anime you enjoy that you can pick a character from right
>>10968982Absolutely, yeah. I've been a weeb since I was 4 and I'm obsessed with a game called Deadlock right now, but I'm a bit of a perfectionist and a manwhore, so I definitely want the cosplay to look good enough, so I wanted to have a few people's opinions on what would work well for me specifically.
Heya /cgl/! I made the decision to give cosplaying a try. I cant describe how much i enjoyed it, especially because im a very extroverted person. What do you guys think of my first cosplay? :]
>>10868385Skibidi toilet
>>10962619lol
>>10948725so you don't know
>>10948725>>10949609who are these "some"?
>>10948725>>10949609Stop bumping this
> started taking cosplay seriously last year, posting online for brand deals and reach and such because making shit is expensive> i try to lean more into the cute/moe side than the ero side of cosplay> i dont think ill ever show lots of skin, i know girls who get crazy reach from it but its just inauthentic and im not a slut, im a bit shy about showing my stomach but cleavage and tight outfits are finei was reccomend to try craft a persona that keeps others there, that feels relatable and honest while still being well, coomworthy or whatever. I know theres a lot of autismlarper girls who pretend to be quirky for cock, but i dont think im that retarded yet. just being cutesy and a bit ditzy is much more natural to me. i do interact a lot more with my fans, unlike most cosers who just yell creep every 2 seconds. so what trope is the best to go for?
>>10968649I can understand that
>>10968591>started taking cosplay seriously>cosplay>taking seriouslyYou should kill yourself.
>>10968591>i know girls who get crazy reach from it but its just inauthentic and im not a slut, im a bit shy about showing my stomach but cleavage and tight outfits are fineGood, keep it up. Be a good example for the community. There are way too many cosprostitutes around.
>>10968591why are you shy about showing your stomach when swimwear for women exposes it?
>>10968862you can be insecure about your face while the whole world sees it every day
