I never went to these as I wasn't old enough but I've heard that conventions used to be more fun. Actual nerds going there having a good time.No social media attention whores trying to get cloutNot overly woke and annoying bullshit shoved down your throatJust nerds nerdin' out
>>10926084Yes
>>10939251Kill yourself.
>>10939251For me they 100% were. Back then I was getting tons of pussy. I was even jacking off in twink mouths once in a while if I was high as fuck. Nowadays normies have ruined everything.
>>10937074trannies as they are today didn't exist back then anon, it was just crossdresses who knew what their real sex where and went to the correct bathroom without screaming opression if they were not seen as a true and honest woman
>>10939267So why cant you do that now? Twinks not exist anymore?

How often do people cosplay Toku in the west?
Idk, but from what I've seen, they've become less and less common through the years here, despite how toku series are well-spread globally nowadays, as in the 2010s there were a lot of toku cosplayers I remember one US based cosplayer who did female riders and rangers, with the occasional western armored heroine
only a handful and even only at the big anime cons
>>10940575to add you probably have more people wearing toku in somewhere like the philippines which has a huge toku fanbasePowernorphicon in the usa is a gurantee
Any gals here?
>>10935440theres no hits when searching so it probably is her
i really want to get into gyaru culture! particularly himegyaru is really appealing to me.. any recommendations ??
>>10933294is this a joke looool
In Japan it still seems to be going strong, but everyone's got kids now. It's all tiny gyaru.
There has been a big rise of these types of events across the country for the past couple of years. 18+ conventions aren't new, but specifically 18+ ecchi events seem to be its own kind of thing. What is more, I see a ton more sex workers at these cons, and it kind of reminds me of a porn convention. However, for some reason they still have everyone wear pasties and no one wants to be nude like a porn convention. (perhaps that is the "ecchi" part coming into play but it feels contradictory to me for some reason).Do you think these types of events are a blessing or curse for the con scene?
>>10940346A blessing. The cosplays are eye candy and creative. Also they touch you when you take pics with them
>>10940346The further degeneration of our modern society. Likely not a good thing
Hentai Matsuri in San Diego was a blast, towards the end of the night one of the girls let us all have a turn grope her ass and tits.
>>10940373That's it? No blowjob or anything else? So it's just a strip? kek
More and more conventions have to be strict about 'keep it G rated' which is kind of hard when you're talking about a culture which birthed Kill la Kill. I see the rise in 18+ events as a result of this. Used to, conventions didn't exactly care about being family friendly, that's sort of a recent thing. Booth babes weren't even a problem until way more people's kids started showing up at conventions.

How can you cosplay as a chud outside of using masks? Hiding your facial features instead of using them to fit a character is lame but do chuds like me have a choice?
>>10940382Unless you want to get into prosthetics to make yourself a silicon chin, masks and makeup are you only options.
use face paint. White face paint will help make it clear
If you're a chud, you can simply go outside and people will think you're cosplaying. It's all about having the socially unacceptable phenotype.
>>10940343Just cosplay as one
>>10940343>How can you cosplay as a chud outside of using masks?I just go as myself and a MAGA hat.

>>10937096gib naem pls
>>10932800Suzu, the mid brit, used to be a lot cuter years ago, but her brit genes are kicking in which means she gonna start wilting soon.
>>10940890Whats your fav suzu pic? I been fapping to her feet lately Disc?
>>10940887I would ask that about >>10940600, they're so flat that they look like they're using breast pads
>>10940942they're definitely wearing breast pads as seen in photo's angle, they're either a guy, an underdeveloped girl that's literally a femboy, or a minor, though on the latter i'm unsure as they're wearing a whole latex suit, something that i'm pretty sure you need to be +18 to buy, let alone the cost of it, as it looks like an andromeda latex costume, which are expensive as a used car or a high-end gaming pc
old misa cosplay!i want to do this cosplay again, any tips on how to make it better?
>>10936980hard to give good concrit without seeing the outfit
A regular wig and dark eye makeup does not a cosplay make
>>10936980wtf just found out this is a /b/ attention whore
>>10939261I would bet that close to 95% if not more of old "gulls" have been /b/ cumdumpsters at some point
>>10936980Go lighter on the makeup besides that its amazing!
>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
Dang, some of yall need real help, like for realOn the other hand, I too don't really see the appeal of having afro/kinky hair for a cosplay that doesn't require such. I think it all started with that trend of black women going back to their natural hair, from a few years ago. However lately that trend has slowly lost its steam and they're going back to wearing weaves, so IG black cosplayers will follow soon as well
>>10891240many have said this in the past
>>10933830/thread
>>10938003Shit like blerds and dreamcon are keeping it alive unfortunately
Why is there such a stigma against girls who cosplay for money? As someone who has never had a girlfriend, being able to send money to cute girls who cosplay as the characters that I love is one of the only things in my life that makes me feel like I have a purpose. From patreon to onlyfans, it's on of my biggest joys and motivations in my life. One day I hope I can give money to a cosplayer at a con in real life and not just through the internet.
>>10901618Then it wouldn't be a "joke" but just actual prostitution. [spoiler]Even though it already is.[/spoiler]
>>10868287I say let them. It's not the women who annoy me, they're just doing what women have always done, it's the spaghetti spined simps that actually give them money that do. Like damn, how desperate do you have to be to get to this point.
>>10868287Its a supply and Demand.Blame both the supply and the demand.If males were to actually get women. They would have a centralized person to explicitly invest in with $. Rather to multiple different women for a mere moment then check their bank accounts and say "Damn. I fucked up. Time to slave away for more coomer $." fallacy.Men and Woman desire possessive nature over others. This is simply the way of the world as it were. Adam and Eve were like this and Eve told Adam to taste the forbidden apple because it was the shit.So here we are. Worshipping women who easily prey on men fickle nature to throw money at those who dresses up as their fictional waifus. Some in hopes to actually fuck the live 3D women in fantasy scenarios in Expo inns.
I'm platonically in love with a girl I subscribe to. I like to DM her memes and my heart skips a beat when I read our messages. When I lay out the reasons why I think she's great and she reacts very thankful, its a really warm feeling. I love her cosplays and think she's genuinely talented and funny.Is this pathetic? Maybe, but it motivates me to become a better person, even when I know I'll never be with her. Growing up I never interacted with girls and this is something I feel I needed. Just having a person that motivates you is very helpful and I'll forever be thankful to her for that. Just her existing and posting her creative work is enough to make me think "I have to try too"
>>10940008leftthe right one has way to strong makeup
>>10940008Both are cuteLeft has cameltoeRight looks like another cosplayer I've seen on twitter who had nice pubes
>>10940008Hair on the left looks better imho, but both look great.
i want a threesome with both of them
the right is my ex
>Ask a cosplayer to take a picture of him/her.>Refuses.
>>10940442Convention staff may remove you if enough cosplayers complain.
>>10940456That rarely happens. Convention staff usually just explain to you not to do that and why.
This is why candids are the best
>>10940845So true
>>10940078>buy a big camera>they never say no>always hold their pose while I move around a few times taking a few shotsits so easy
how come when people make armor or whatever they always make the under material pitch black? why not use the same color as the actual piece you're making?
>>10940847A little something called the illusion of depth
