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?
>>10957808If you're sharing a bed maybe. I try to room in spaces where I'll be with someone of the same gender so nothing weird happens or gets alleged. I know some people will cover the room if you 'hang out' with them all weekend and share a bed but not explicitly anything more
>>10899061Most of the time, yes. But make enough money I can stay in my own room. It’s only really lonely/boring. I only stay with people I know, or if they can recommend someone. Rules depending on the card holder. Basic stuff, really. No sex, no alcohol, respect people stuff. I used to stay in a party room, so the rules were a little more relaxed.
I was once too plastered to head home after a con rave and somehow convinced strangers to let me sleep on the floor of they're slready packed hotel roomfor $20. I was kept awake by two of them fucking loudly in the bathroom and I disappeared when it was daylight. I still wonder if there's someone out there going "Yeah i swear to u this awkward sloppy girl we don't even know was passed out in a corner and completely disappeared , what was that about."
>>10899061>Have you done it before?Yes>Where did you find people to split the room with?They were my closest friends and my brother>Were they strangers?No, see above>What rules were usually in place for the convention weekend?Not really strict since we all knew each other and were used to staying over at each other's places anyway. Just be clean, and any groups who were out should always have at least 1 person with a room key (only 2 keys split between 5 people at most so it's easy)>Did any problems arise?Not really but my best friend's wife had a phase where she had to sleep to Markiplier for some fucking retarded reason and I woke up to him screaming at 3am and I wanted to kill him and her in that moment (but not really, I just turned off the TV)Other than that its usually very chill and we've had many fun times, like watching the entirety of smiling friends up late when it was new, or trying board/video games we bought at the con>Would you do it again?Yeah but moreso because conventions are fun and not the rooming experience specificallyComment too long.

Otakon is a million years away, but I finally got a Marriott Marquis room, any tips for having maximum fun while there? I only experienced it during the day, is the night scene any different? Is it acceptable to switch to a different cosplays at night?
>>10960001>untrimmed HP capeMan, he has better taste than I expected. I considered goin in a skillcape+phat this year, but I kinda hate the direction jagex has taken RS in these last couple of years, so I'd feel bad cosplaying from a series that I no longer like. (maxed btw) (I kept my untrimmed HP cape btw)>>10960000Trying to piece together a cosplay at dealer hall sounds kinda fun, if I'm being honest. Could be a cool thing to try at some point
>>10960019Yeah it was fun putting something together on the fly. I think next year I'll just have something ready ahead of time. Im 6'4 so most of the shit the had didnt fit me. One of the few moments I wish I was a bit shorter
>>10960000>>10960019You used to be able to get dressed at cons, so to speak. When I started going to cons ten years ago, there were always a few booths selling cosplay parts: many sold wigs, some sold pieces. I remember you could walk in with no cosplay like our dear anon here and find something easily for at least day 1; I specifically remember one place selling Astolfo's wig and a different place selling his school uniform, so if you were tiny enough you could walk out of the dealer room as Astolfo. Haven't really seen dealers like that much at post-covid cons even though cosplay is super popular now, it's usually just the sword sellers in the back of dealer rooms left.
How do you make such precise drawings on a mask (the moth)?I saw that they used glue to stick paper on it like gold leaf, but how do they manage to make such a precise area?
>>10961080It's possible to cut it out by hand, with a hobby knife or scissors. You can also use a Cricut cutting machine.
Stencil. Lay a stencil on the mask, put glue on over the stencil, add the glitter, take off the stencil.

>>10959555This entire board is completely dead sadly, there are still threads in the catalog that are 3 years old. Anyway from what I saw on another site it seems they had some major sound issues, not sure if that was just one venue or multiple.
>>10959626Apparently there were some major issues on Chile, haven't heard any complaints from the Brazil and Mexico ones.

Anime NYC is the largest anime convention on the East Coast, in the biggest city in the US. Many technical and complex cosplays and lots of skimpy cosplays in this one.When: AUG. 21 – 24, 2025Where: JAVITS CONVENTION CENTER

>>10959925you fucking stupid bro? the entire hall up there was filled with backdrops for anyone to use

This is stage cosplay performance at Russian anime convention - with action sequences, dances, live video, stunts and motorcycles. Made by common cosplayers, not professionals.Is there something like this at anime conventions in your countries?
>>10960950At the bigger cons we do get live professional stage performances, but nothing with motorcycles
I remember Cosplay Chess at some US con - there were some nice performances. I'm not sure about participants though.Were the professionals or common cosplayers who practiced a lot.

Longshot: Does anyone know how to update your animated Taolife avatar? Like, the one that shows on the main site of Taobao and moves around? I've updated my avatar in style/appearance multiple times in Taolife but the animated one still looks like this old, uncute one. Shows up like this on the desktop version too. Do you have to update it somewhere else? I've tried changing to a static picture and back to Taolife and it doesn't care.
Is it a good idea to buy wallpaper from taobao?Anybody tried before?
Curious to know if anybody still uses shopping services or order direct? I know there's pros and cons of both but I tend to lean towards shopping service for them to handle all the shipping-related matters.On that note, what's a good shipping service out there?
>>10960588Honestly, I don't see much reason to not use order direct unless you're getting custom made stuff and feel the service is going to translate your wants/needs better (chatgpt is pretty good at this now, though). Taobao consolidates your items into a single package and it's a really fast process (from my experience). If anything, I felt pretty ripped off after finally trying direct and having wasted my time/money on shopping services prior.
>>10960588Always order direct if you can. I vastly prefer cainiao because they have a pretty good list of what they will and wont accept for shipping. I found the shipping is vastly cheaper. A parasol i wanted to buy was 60$ shipping with superbuy but with cainiao was only 17$ with the tariff refund of 2$ later as well.
New thread since the last one reached the limit and is about to be archived.Are any of you attending Otakon this weekend? Any acts you're excited to see?Who's your oshi?
>>10962778you know what all those groups have in common. they're all well over the age of 18. you kpop idiots are the only ones mentally ill enough to come to a kawaii culture board and complain about japanese kawaii culture. just go back to jerking off to barely clothed actual 13 year olds in your kpop subreddit. projecting pedo.

Hellooo, I want to make a The Fly cosplay but I just don't know how to make the head. At first I thought using cardboard could be fine, but tried and didn't work. Soo I came here for suggestions
>>10960915Make a base with foam or masking tape then put duct tape over it i think
I'm definitely thinking tea strainers for the eyes
