I met someone on discord who volunteered for Tekko Con. They suggested I go. I figured I needed to make some friends and try something new. I had wanted to get into cosplay for awhile but was too shy. I DIYed a cute espeon cosplay and got a lot of compliments. But I found it difficult to talk to anyone. When I would try to start a conversation, they'd either ignore me or would just talk briefly and be like "uh I gotta go" I work in sales for a living so I'm pretty good socially. Everyone was pretty nice overall but I was disappointed I didn't make any friends. What should I do in the future? I enjoy cosplaying and would like to try it some more
>>10975943Not my cosplay btw. Sorry. credit to RicaRaion
>>10975943For some reason, people at cons decided that cosplay meetups are the only areas where they can properly socialize with each other, so if you're wanting to meet people that's what you have to do. Be prepared to then have to chase said people down on some Discord server somewhere afterward.
So I've already cosplayed as simple shit, and I think the most "produced" cosplay I ever made was a berdly one (I used a cyan full body and some clothes I had, and made a beak out of paper)The thing is, I want to start making better cosplays, but I have 0 skills with sewing, or foam modeling/sculpting
What should I pick if I want to cosplay as Malt?
Who’s going? Who’s excited? Cosplay lineups.This is my 4th year going solo so I hope to be able to organize a meetup this year or something. This con has otherwise been enjoyable every year.September 3rd - September 6th, Greater Columbus Convention Center in Columbus Ohio.
I missed the Love Live! trivia it’s so over
>>10975649i’m still waiting for the rave and speed friending to do anything lol
>>10975650There’s a speed friending? I wasn’t even aware
>>109756519:45
Well the thread wasn't as active as I've seen in past years but still had a pretty good time. This con is pretty good for solo going, at least compared to Colossal, people always seem more outgoing beyond their own groups, could just be me though. Wish the rave wasn't cancelled(?) the first night and I didn't miss it the second but mingling and socialization has never been easier at a con than this year here.
New day badges, new website, same old bullshit.Location: David L Lawrence Convention Center, Pittsburgh, PADates: July 23-26 2026
Are there any other interesting Pittsburgh conventions? I enjoy PGX but besides that I don't really know any others
I legitimately didn't know people loathed tekko this much. Coming from something like Zenkaikon where the venue is so small that panels fill up an hour in advance, tekko is a blast.
>>10975728Speaking as a Tekko fan, I think it's half legitimate gripes with management, and half people who want it to be a party con when it very much is not and never will be.
>>10975730Tackling both of those points, I did find it very weird they went all in on that cruise convention “tekko at sea” thing. I know nobody who went to that.
>>10975742Yeah that was a bit of a strange maneuver desu. I feel as if they should pour more resources into Sangawa Project than breaking out a cruise con. Is that even popular as a Colossalcon offshoot?
do you think if i popped into the next largest anime con as ciel phantomhive with my 6 ft 3 white boyfriend as sebastian with an australian accent the women would go crazy over it
This con is comparable to the Lord of the Rings: the Return of the King, the film that swept the Oscars, in terms of Canadian cons. The Kimi no na Wa. The End of Evangelion.Who's going?
>>10975496Skirt or no skirt?
Who was the Asian lady selling itabags for $60CAD with Jap rabbits on them? Bought one and it's good shit.Also that one area with the autographs was absolute hell up to the single escalator, literally dangerous, con needs a cap.

>>10975284what
>>10975555peak con
This is the best Canadian convention. Who is going tomorrow?
>>10974660Ew discord. Only for stealing photos. Going dressed as Golden Boy today. Fer sure going to the after party tonight too
Anyone here going to SFU summer fest?
>>10974830Yes
any girls here from vancouver wanna be my gf
>>10975466I look like a girl when I crossplay. Best you're going to get around here
Why won't yall stop complaining about /cgl/ being dead and do something about it instead?I mean... the amount of people who clearly miss how it used to be would probably be enough to make it at least a little better.Make more threads, interact in the existing ones, idk, just try to make it happen.(And I'm not even hating, I just really want this to change as well)
>>10975343While /pol/ is the most known board the people that actually matter know it's not the only board. Anyone whining about anons posting to /cgl/ is trying to stir the pot and should be avoided.
>>10975344But hoards of zoomers and even more gen alpha are geniuenly retarded and don't know the difference, anyone talking to the evil hacker 4chan is a problematic proshipper
>>10974732A lot of these people are probably better kept out>>10975343A real problem. Remember when you used to add people to msn messenger from the Internet and you had your full real name on? Man, what a timeIn a way, it's not exactly 4chan that "changed" a lot, it's everyone else became a massive problem along with it
>>10975343You’re afraid of being doxxed,I am afraid of not getting any actual feedback at all because the majority of posters are bots and actual turdies who only circlejerk amongst themselves 24/7 and barely know enough english in between randomly speaking thai and spamming porn. We are not the same
>>10975216Pretty much same. It used to be nice to look at all the cool cosplays and the intricate lolita outfits, but nowadays nobody selfposts anymore unless they are attention whoring and it sucks. Part of it is the stigma of using le evil racist 4chan hacker site, but the other part is that most of the good posters just moved elsewhere. Why try to thrive on an anonymous site when you can gather 10,000 xitter orbiters to glaze you at every turn, or just join a discord server and talk to people there. Unfortunately, there just isn't really a market for the anonymous imageboard anymore because people thrive off getting recognized and getting attention and the whole point here is the opposite of that.
i havent been here regularly in years but when i do come back i cant find the ita threads. that was like the whole reason i showed up. did you people suddenly learn social tact while i was gone. what the fuck man
>>10975369It looks like a Leg Avenue Lolita costume
>>10975369not their fault that the company chose the worst looking possible polka dots print, I don't know what is it about lolita, but the brands or whatever are specialist at making polka dots look bad
>>10975369>honestly it looks fineyou need to get your eyes checked
>>10975369Because of r/lolita the standards are so low this looks tolerable
>>10975369Would you pay the burando prices the want to charge for it though?
>be me, 30s M>hardly ever donde a cosplay but in 2020>carnival blood runs in my veins>tries and premieres it in Seville and Madrid>"hey, anon, you've got a good Class-D cosplay"Alright, I'm going to do cross "the fog" and dump my portfolio. Anons, do your worst. Otherwise, thank you very much. (1/7)

Is anyone going to get the first release from the new western indie, Murmures de Rubans? Putting their "faux fur" controversy aside. I think that this design isn't cohesive and needed a lot of editing before they put it into production. Looking at the samples, I wouldn't buy it as is. I feel the same about a lot of Lady Sloth releases. I'm not even talking about manufacturing quality here, why are western brands designs aesthetically like this?
>>10973906the only people willing to try to be a western lolita brand are insane crazy people often have eccentric taste
I don't think there's a way to style this that won't be ita. The piece itself is ita out the gate
Western indie brands, especially new ones are usually just ran by some autists with a special interest. Sometimes they are just anime enjoyers so their designs are weirdly flashy and nonsensical. Also most of them don't have any idea what they're doing and end up getting in over their heads when their final products don't end up looking like the dress they drew.https://www.instagram.com/honeycathedralclothing
>>10975066excellent idea, poor execution. pick high quality materials and craft, pick a photographer that can at the very least manage to make your black hair stand out from your black head thingie, pick a super qt model, yes including qt lolita hair
Brand already shuttered after everyone told MdR that their final samples looked like shit, and they can't afford to revise any of it. Even though she did this with student loans and her 13 years older boyfriend's money
