Any style suggestions or new releases you're looking forward to?
pretty nice black and white colorway
I like the new LL releases, generally. Does anyone have any tips for getting "back into" jirai? I started my wardrobe in 2021 so I have some older items but I couldn't buy any more for like the last 2 years and I'd like to change my wardrobe to be a little less neanderthal jirai but it's been so long idk where to start anymore

I'm a near-complete beginner to con culture and the "scene" due to zero exposure to it until recently and I have too many questions swimming around in my head that I need to ask. I've only been to a couple of small ones in my mostly-desolate area and I want to step up to traveling to bigger ones but I'm overwhelmed. Please bear with me.>Do a majority of congoers cosplay? I know it's common, but is it seen as a faux pas to not cosplay?>Likewise, is it seen as a faux pas to wear the same cosplay more than once in a multi-day event, or to not wear it some days?>I've read a lot on this board about "after hours" events and parties that aren't scheduled by the con staff. Do you have to get invited to things like that, or how do people find out about them?>Do cons that don't have a stated sub-demographic (ones that use terms like "fandom" or "pop culture" instead of specifically "fantasy" or "otaku" or something) tend to accept all demographics? Would you be looked at weird for going to something more "western" like SDCC in an anime cosplay, or would you expect to see a lot of them? >Why do some huge cons like Colossal and Dragon seem to place such significance on getting a hotel room onsite as opposed to just being nearby? Surely not just traffic, right?>What's a "gull"? >How do you not get sick every time you go to one? >How do you keep track of scheduling for multiple cons across multiple years? Do you get notified about them? When is "con season"?>If you're partying, how do you deal with inevitable hangovers or crashes?And some more personal questions>If you cosplay, what's normally your budget? Both in terms of time and money. >How do you make friends at a con if you're not going with a group?>How many cons do you go to yearly or on a recurring basis? There are a fuckton I want to see but I'm not sure if my expectations are unreasonable.Thank you for your time.
>>10908220this is actually harder to pull logistically than it sounds because prudes in the con and non con goers in the hotels. Getting a corner room with large floor space and kitchenette for drinks and seats bringing all the equipment and shit. Actually turning the music up without some fuck wit 20 year old knocking on the door>uhhh I have a panel about cross stitching at 7 am tomorrow and really need to get sleep we already have 3 might attendsfucking stupid ass dad who went on vacation and didn't check if the hotel had any events going on>hey I only have 3 days of vacation a year and spent 40 thousand dollars to see *insert shitty tourist attraction* with my wife's kids I'm gonna tell on you
Is lobbyconning worth it or will it just be boring without being able to go inside?
>>10968014Depends on the con.Katsucon? Absolutely.Collossalcon? Absolutely (if you have the water park pass).Magfest? Probably notOtakon? Probably not.
>>10968079>water park>pass
>>10968079whats the difference between magfest and katsucon? dont they happen at the same venue?
have you ever found the pics of you cosplaying that you posted online or that somebody else took posted on a pornographic site?
>>10969327>moments of weaknessthose were moments of strength
>>10969330are u the same anon harping the other dude into posting stuffkek
>>10969322I dont think I''ll send them anytime soon, sorry>>10969327what character do you cosplay anon?
>>10969340yes>>10969344you will send them. I know your kind
>>10969344it's been a week bro...
I'm too old to understand this subculture please enlighten melike how do you feel when you larp as an anime character makes you feel like
>>10968774Same thing with western "gyarus" bro.
>>10968786Western lolitas also add "be a harpy/spinster man hater" into the rulebook replete with fun vocabulary like "scrote" to address their male nemesis. So fun having them coexist with cosplay threads, having to see all the simps jacking off to hot cosplays and sexy maido while loli-chan seethes and rages in her petticoat and frills.
>>10969681bro thinks there's still lolitas here...they've all left
>>10969682You know, you appear correct. Haven't been on here a few months but all the usual outfit of the day etc. threads are missing. Where did they go, tiktok or something...interesting.
>>10969683probably left for other sites that aren't filled with photos of softcore porn
It's crazy how there's not a single hot picture ITT

>>10969573Jealous fatty/uggo detected.
A human torch cosplayer that actually lit himself on fire.
>>10969605You just have bad taste
>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
>>10968707>No matter what race she was, we all think it's good.shes black and yeah her cosplays are incredible, I wish more people even white people took the effort to make there cosplays this good.https://www.tiktok.com/@cutiepiesensei/video/7605779392530238734
>>10969247>league of legends DEI characterand just like that, she bombed my interest
>>10968696I started cosplaying back in the 2000's. I just go on here for the laughs, but honestly I just see cosplay as a fun hobby. I can't be bothered to be offended by people that probably didnt even get into anime until Covid and it was socially acceptable to be into it.
>>10969413Define socially acceptable and these people you are referring to.
>>10891423Would have been some solid comedy to wear a White guy colored bald cap for it
I saw this amazing Zelda cosplayer on Instagram but I noticed she doesnt seem to be wearing any underwear or anything and she's at a con. Is she secretly wearing something underneath?
>>10969244im sure they do care about the fandom, thats why theyre cosplaying from it
>>10969251>im sure they do care about the fandom, thats why theyre cosplaying from itonly the exhibitionist ones do, if they have an onlyfans they're never honest about the hobby
>>10969299>if they have an onlyfans they're never honest about the hobbynigga, healthcare and college are expensive in the US. Tons of middle class people are one car accident from having their finances crumble. I don't blame a single american female getting the bag from cosplay while they can
>>10969321>nigga, healthcare and college are expensive in the US. Tons of middle class people are one car accident from having their finances crumble. I don't blame a single american female getting the bag from cosplay while they canI can understand money being an issue for being a cosplayer but there's a world of difference between selling nudes to fund cosplay, and just using cosplay as a way to sell nudes. very few "cosplayers" with OF actually do it for the hobby itself, and more likely it is just a way to get more simps
>>10969357Honestly, I don't have a problem with cosplay being a porn genre, and women doing it only to pander to lonely weeb guys. I just don't like how they do it at regular cons for the sole purpose of promoting their material, I've got zero problem with sexy cosplay when girls are doing it for their own personal reasons but I just don't like mixing business with pleasure.
>bf says he’ll take me to a lolita fashion store >ask if it is a sweet lolita, classic lolita or gothic lolita fashion store>he laughs and says it’s a nice store>go with bf>it’s kawaii fashion
>>10920890holy fucking simp
>>10920890kill yourself you indian faggot
>>10920890>The only exception to all of this is if he buys cringey materialistic consoomer shit for himself that's as expensive as your hobby.whatif you dont like eachothers hobbies maybe you should reconsider having a relationshipdont get me wrong I would be a bit weirded out by somebody spending half their salary on funkopops but if it is not out of control I dont see any reason to judge it over spending money on other stuff
>be breedable adult woman>wear old fashioned children's clothing but Japan>call it Lolita after the novel about a pedophile preying on a young girl>ugh it's just so gross when men sexualize thislol, I genuinely love women but you guys are so dumb
>>10969615idk about you but the Lolita stuff I like looks like something a 20-something woman would wear in 1895, or something a vampire queen would wear
hi guys! Looking to see if anyone has any creative non-destructive ways (meaning no permanent alterations) to do what I’m trying to do. I’ll be doing a Chris Redfield cosplay, and I have an authentic vietnam era flak jacket (pic related, not my exact one, but this is pretty much it), but for the cosplay to be accurate in terms of RE1 remake, I need it to add some lettering. My monkey brain actually considered electrical tape, which might be a little tedious, but there’s a lot of straight lines so I don’t think it would take longer than an afternoon’s time, but idk how it would turn out. Alternatively, I could say screw it and claim to be the original RE1 Chris where its a plain flak jacket lol, but that’s a last ditch effort. Any suggestions would be awesome!
Instead of electrical tape, you could consider having somebody cut you an actual vinyl decal. Look for a place that does car graphics, often the same shops that do window tint. It's surprisingly expensive but probably the best way to get a temporary solution that looks professional.
>>10969609now that you mention it, I think an old coworker once mentioned having a cricut to make vinyl decals for his car… but I thought those were more “permanent” (i.e., hard to remove, leaves residue/may take away from cloth materials). Does that mean you can get vinyl decals that are more gentle on the surface, at the expense of longetivity (which is perfectly fine in this case)?
>>10969611You might be able to get less sticky vinyl stock, but the normal stuff isn't any worse than electrical tape would be.
>>10969614understood. thank you!
Because why notConnichi is around the corner - September 5 to 7 in Wiesbaden. Anyone going?Tell us about your con visits, your plans for the next months, cosplay struggles and everything else!Not sure where to go next? Consult this handy site which also lists smaller local cons:https://www.jam-cons.net/con-kalender
What's your usual budget? For art stands and such, without tickets or cosplay
>>10969452I don't really have one. After much deliberation I bought a 3€ sticker last time
dokomi tickets are so expensive… are all german cons this costly?
>>10969576It's the biggest one after all, so afaik it's also the priciest. Connichi is a bit cheaper, AniMUC is cheaper than that etc, because they're smaller
This is is the state of my costume dawg, I'm so going to fail this project lmao
Trap HereI'm planing on cosplaying Goth 2B soon and I'm looking for shiny boots similar to the ones on the pic on the right, that are in a mans size. I also want to find better fake boobs than the ones i currently use. Preferably latex without being too huge, I don't want to look like an obvious troon or those shitty crossplayers. Make up will be done by my gf.
>>10969479Have fun i guess.
Beautiful
>>10969548grim
>>10969548>>10969569Ehh, I'd fool around with (ravenously fuck) at least 3 of these cuties.
