Does visible acne (maybe even with no attempt to cover it) ruin a person's cosplay for you? How much does it bother you compared to other commonly-complained-about accuracy dealbreakers in cosplay like obeseness/scrawniness, height, wildly inaccurate races, etc?
>>10912456Acne I can ignore because depending on body chemistry it’s not always preventable. Those chapped fucking lips on the other hand are very preventable
>>10912456It honestly depends on the one's acne, but if all if his or her face is a fucking covered in landmines, It's bad.
The right makeup can cover acne pretty well. But idealy you should do something to clear it up. Spend the months leading up to con season to take care of it.
It's over
>>10912456I'm not bothered by height or race. However anything that makes someone look unhealthy or like a cheap whore kills it for me.Acne makes me feel sad for the person because I remember being a teen and researching desperately for how to stop acne, and all anything I could find said was "it's just genetics" and "cover it with some cream" bullcrap. You really have to stop eating anything containing cooking oils, among other things. Unlike an obese lady choosing to go to a con in a bikini, absolutely no one wants acne, so I feel like anyone who has it just hasn't been told how to stop it.
Which do you prefer>Looking as close to the source material as possible, even if that means a lack of details or lack of realism in the clothing/hair.>A realistic version of the cosplay, how it would have been if the char were a real-life person, even if there are details to the cosplay not supported by canon
>>10912673Whatever appeals to the eye more IRL. So people doing stupid ass thinge like fucking up their eyebrows to match a cartoon tends to look 100x uglier than leaving them mostly alone.
CCC #2 Repent EditionWhat recently mischiefs have you done recently? Or plan on perpetuate on your next innocent victims.Me: Ask someone if I can play Street Fighter II on the SNES classic. It was a close match manage to win, He was getting ready for a rematch but I say thank you and prepare to leave, He leaves first. Also after that pick up some free posters that some left of the consoles table and I leave.Also repent for being lazy and missing 3 cons this year.
>>10820217>i gave away expired condoms to horny ass weebs at a late night partyIts all dudes and trannies. The few girls are the type that dont sex anyways so you pretty much accomplished nothing.
I will just say I'm at Conventions with a Game Boy Camera.
>>10854086>>10854091Gigabased
I'm glad my boyfriend isn't interested in conventions because it's an easy weekend to cheat on him. I can get it out of my system a few times a year.
>>10816477I have a crossdressing fetish for frilly clothes and I use my local used cosplay market for cheap outfits to wear and coom in (especially if the girl is hot)

Sharing a hotel room at a con:Have you done it before? Where did you find people to split the room with? Were they strangers? What rules were usually in place for the convention weekend? Did any problems arise? Would you do it again?
>>10912311Also wrong.
>>10899061Never done the total strangers thing, but I have stayed with some people on the outer edge of my friend circle. Friends of friends. It was a great time and gives you some idea of what it's like with a new group of people. The only downside is that they were the "pack 10 people into a room" type and holy shit never again.
in my early 20s i would cram according to what I could afford, usually having to share a bed with someone and having sex when my roommates were at the conI’m in my mid 30s now and i get suites with my gf because we love stuffing a fridge with groceries and using the stove and kitchen for the weekend and having quiet time to ourselves
>>10899061>Have you done it before? ya>Where did you find people to split the room with? friend found them on the con's forum or they were friends of friends>Were they strangers? ya they flew in from another state / friends of friends>What rules were usually in place for the convention weekend? none>Did any problems arise? nope we just went there to sleep>Would you do it again?not really you only do it to split the cost / meet new people
What's a good place to find people to room with? I'm mostly going to be going to cons alone and it's fucking expensive.

>>10912604I had color transfer like this except it was a black jsk that transferred color to a white blouse.I never got it out, but that was a long time ago. If this happened now I would use a specific laundry product that claims to remove color bleed. I have seen it at the local drugstore, just never tried it. It's called laundry SOS or something.
Poly from sheglit and BPN feels so good why did no one tell me polyester could feel so nice?
>>10902439I wanna start dressing like a guy from a magical girl anime. Do I just go full visual Kei?
I really like lolita styled boots and was wondering what would be a good brand to purchase from. I know that brand shoes aren’t necessarily good quality (i.e. synthetic leather). Here’s a reference of what I’m looking for;
What kind of j fashion would work best with this hair style/color? Let's assume the person can not change their hairstyle to fit the look better.>I think mori kei is super pretty. But I feel like the hairstyle might not be feminine enough for it. >Amekaji looks neat. I kinda like the gaudiness of it. I don't know popular it is though. Like if you saw that outfit in America, would you be able to identify it at all. >Don't know if you would classify Sex Pot Revenge as punk/goth, or if they're considered Japanese Hot Topic. I generally like their designs though.I've also thought about kogal and egl. But I feel like the short hair disqualifies it from egl. Kogal might work though. Any suggestions?
neither
I find that after wearing a costume to a con or other event I don't know what to do with it. When the next event rolls around, I want to make a new costume. This means I have a closet full of old costumes basically just sitting there...What to you do with your costumes when you are "done" with them?
>>10905540Personally, I eat it. I don't like wasting carbohydrates.
>>10905540I put it away in my closet until it calls to me.
I usually take a large bag, fold the cosplay up, and throw in all the accessories. Then I put all those bags full of cosplays into one of those large plastic tubs. I store the wigs and shoes separately though, because those can sometimes be used for future cosplays. Here and there I pull out an older cosplay to wear again. It’s nice knowing that they’re there if I don’t finish a cosplay in time for a con or if a friend ends up cosplaying from a series, then we can be matchy
I like to work on upgrading my existing cosplays in addition to making new ones. Sometimes I ran out of time to finalize all the fine details, something didn't come in the mail in time, or time has passed and I got a better wig or have improved my crafting skills. When I repeatedly cosplay a character over the years I find I can get dramatically better at makeup, posing, and other details of them that I simply can't nail on a first try.Oftentimes it's just something small, like replacing buttons or adding another accessory, but there are one or two cosplays of mine that I've done a full "ship of Theseus" slow remake on.
>>10912282Lol I love the ship of Theseus analogy. That’s something I’m in the process of doing with my cosplay of my favorite character
>be non black person (not white) doing cosplay>high expectations to be accurate with correct wig for contests and photoshoots>be black>no need to use wig or accurate cosplay. it's called ethnic wigs instead
>>10909621So disgusting. It made my dick throw up like 100 times.
>>10891240imagine the smell
>>10909645Yep. Negroes aren't attractive at all. There's a reason why many photographers don't pay them attention at cons

NEW THREAD>>10912266
>>10910226Westernshitters at anime cons are still uniformly worse than any other group that isn't explicitly IRL-focused (IRL Streamers, actual LARP participants, wannabe LARPers, etc.). VTuber simps are cringe, but they are the old kind of cringe that is at least socially focused, and they have an extremely easy time bonding as long as you're kind-of a fan of whichever VTuber they're presently dumping hundreds of dollars into for superchats. You're never going to find a Teen Titans/Avatar/Hazbin/etc. fan who isn't going to enter every single social engagement with every scrap of Twitter/Tumblr baggage you can imagine, and you can rest assured that all of them will expect you to be caught up with their present pool of trending headaches, or they'll be smarmy and short with you every time you engage with them. The only reason why these two are even comparable is because there are tons more VTuber simps now than Westernshitters, but I assure you I'll take 100 VShitters over even 1 more Homestuck/SU lobotomite at a con. At least we're not talking about Power Rangers or Comics fans though, they're about as bad as any group theoretically can be.

>>10912031No, I've seen girls walking around that look like anime girls without even trying. It just so happens none of them are caucasian.Saya is a beautiful australopithecus, sure. But she wouldn't get very much attention if she went to a cosplay convention in the country where anime comes from.
It really really really sucks when you find a cosplayer who is genuinely cute (left) but then photoshops their face into looking like aliens (right)Please please please for the love of god rely less on editing
>>10909869Id bang an old lady.
>>10909869didn't know shoop works irl too. What a time to be alive.Also if you can't tell if something is shooped to hell and back you deserve to be disappointed by reality.
>>10909866On the other hand, there's a tendency for people to overblow how edited Asian cosplayers are on Western media. North-east Asian cosplayers obviously have the superior facial features to match the appearance of typical anime girls, so a big part of that is self comforting/cope from those with Caucasoid features that don't want to believe it. Understandable, since if you ever go to a cosplay event in East Asia, the difference in authenticity is very stark. Some of those cosplayers look literally like an anime girl come to life, something that you will basically never see in the West.
>>10911914well, looky here if this isn't bait
>>10909883no it's because she doesn't look like a Grey Alien
