Marin (and variations) and Yor were the obvious FOTM cosplays for last con season. What are your predictions for this year? My predictions:>Yor spillover from last year>a fuckton of Kobeni and Makima>Mitsuri from Demon Slayer (her arc comes out in spring)>Vash Stampede for guys
>>10933948>>10933976"Lol"
>>10966941I've underestimated how short-lived the hype of these indie horror games can be. They may only be just long enough for some only fans cosplay shoots the first month after release.
>>10966945Should have been a slam dunkHarley one of the most popular cosplaysGirls already cosplaying Joker from the first oneAnd then they released that shit
>>10968323Capeshit has been on a severe decline since... I don't even know, probably End Game. Suicide Squad might have been one of the most popular couple cosplays but it's not 2016 anymore either
ive seen quite a few tokai teio cosplays, which is unexpected but welcome. i wish there were more nefer and lauma cosplays tho
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!
>>10969614understood. thank you!
>>10969608Making this an RE thread for based RE broI want to do Jill's shoulder pads and I was going to use EVA foam like I've done for other cosplays, but the more I think about, the more I realize it's probably better if I use a lighter foam and sew fabric around it to create a better look. What foam should I use? I'm thinking about that yellowish, crap foam that they use in random stuff, but idk where to source it from/what its called.
>>10969979Are you thinking about foam rubber?
>>10969979You're probably thinking of upholstery foam. If you're in a decent-size city there might actually be stores specializing in foam, otherwise a craft store probably has something. Personally I'd probably use batting though, it'll lay better over your shoulders.
>>10970045I don't think so. Just from a quick google search, I think that material might be too 'dense' for what I would want to cut up and sew around. Like it wouldn't hold the shape around the shoulders very well. Unless you think it might work for what I'm trying to do>>10970049I think you're right on the batting foam (also from a quick google search). My idea was unlike the EVA foam stuff I've done in the past where I have to very particular about my cuts and the shape, I more so want to use the foam as 'stuffing' for the pattern I create. Of course, I'd still cut it to size and wrap the fabric around it, but I want to avoid making it super stiff, if that makes any sense
Have you ever thought about getting plastic surgery for cosplay?If you did, were the results favorable?
If you want plastic surgery for cosplay you need to take that money you were going to use to change your body and go to a therapist.You weebs can't be THAT insecure...
You know the answer. The answer to it all. It's so easy...
>>10948660if its her body then you are not fucking her otherwise it would be your body, nice try simp
you can always get a saline injection for temporary real fake boobs.

What are the non-convention cosplay events like in your area anon? It seems like the amount of small events near me have blown up in the last year. This weekend I'm going to an Ouran host club cafe, cosplay beginners workshop and a Higaruma from JJK look alike contest.
>>10969807That sounds awesome
They're always full of the same people I see at local cons-- the ones who actually come for the event instead of the party crowd, which is hardly surprising. If there are any series-specific cos events I've never seen them, it's either an "anime" (barely) rave or a themed night at the arcade
>>10969807No such things exist here outside of cons
>>10969807>seems like the amount of small events near me have blown up in the last year.i mean yeah, it's new york nigga
>>10969866Organize your own. Partner with a bubble tea place or cafe for a cupsleeve event, or do a cosplay workshop in a library.
Popular female cosplayers seems to of become more of dressing slutty for attention than putting together a well made costume for a hobby
>>10854442Because it costs money to make shit, and you losers only want more and more porn
>>10958345>>10939976Opposite effect for me, I'm almost 40 and she's been famous in the cosplay scene as long as I've been in it, I'm surprised to realize she isn't significantly older than that.
>>10959810The image is at least 16 years old. It is quite reasonable to assume that anon is not underage b& because if anon was 2 when it was taken, they would be an of age newfag. Hell, I myself am a wizard and I don't know who she is.
>>10954109You're welcome.
>>10939879Is she still complaining about the attention she willingly invites?
Discussion and analysis of CAP & SNK cosplayers.Post cosplayers names if you know them.Also Event & Year of pic.
>>10952667Isn't that like, the complete opposite of being a cuckold? He's the one who actually gets to fuck her while the nerds can only stare.
>>10822930RIP lil man
>>10822930Absolute legend
The title says it all, cosplayers that did awesome cosplay but their career were cut short, as they suddenly disappeared without any notice.
I think about my queen Koujackie most days. I hope she's doing good
>>10969983I remember koujackie
>>10969983
>>10969995only true dmmd fans remember our queen and goddess Koujackie
Texas thread died about a week ago or so... RIP, not OP of the previous Texas thread but the anon that had revived it briefly in October. Meant to revive it again this month in-time for it to reach 1-year-plus status, but had totally slipped my mind and was already too late by the time I had noticed... oh well, let's try this 1-year challenge all over again, shall we?UPCOMING NOTABLE EVENTS (for the next six months):Anime Frontier - Dec 12-14Ecchi Expo - Dec 12-14Ikkicon - Jan 9-11Ushicon / Komoricon - Feb 6-8 (both in Austin, Komoricon happening on Feb 7 only)AnimeVerse Houston - Feb 13-15WeebCon - Apr 3-5Anime Dallas - Apr 17-19Otaku Odyssey - May 8-10Riverwalk Anime - May 23-24A-Kon - Press X to Doubt (World Cup will be in town during Jun-Jul)Discuss topics about Texas cons here, including ones that have have happened recently such as Anime Impulse Dallas.
>>10969849One thing I hate about being a nerd is that other nerds are spineless cowards and will acquiesce to the most mild of social pressure.
>>10969849>>10969850imagined enemies LO
>>10969852We're taking away your HRT.
>>10969585Well if anyone gets interested my discord is > lyriqalI'm local as well if people need other SA/SJ ideasI know most people here are already in their own groups and such, but figured I'd at least put myself out there as a point of contact if anyone does want to do our own independent /cgl/ meet up.I'll make a server if we get a few other people down.
https://feverup.com/m/618556?srsltid=AfmBOoqWlU5voKe7jLZ5IZQNWlMrp_lfvi8ozzp1MthDrFls_7G8f2HhAlso anyone doing this? Feels /cgl/ adjacent, I was kinda wanting to go but I don't have anything remotely fitting the occasion and kinda worried about going alone.
Westerners will never be this cute.
>>10964524Is there a cure for this disease?
>>10964563No, but their suffering can be alleviated with skin whitening products and online larping
>>10964492She is too small, she'll never make it in the anime cosplay world
>>10964492She could still lose a bit of weight.
This one is perfect
Why do you think so many woman cosplay as bunnies. To be honest it’s starting to feel repetitive.
Dragoncon has the bunny hutch. They can’t legally call it playboy bunnies. Thursday night almost everyone is a bunny version of a character
Bnuny
For real, we need men to start cosplaying as bunnies instead.
>>10969985Will it get us laid?
>>10969989No, but you will feel bonita
March 21-22, Oakland, CACarrier con is in one week! Do you have any meetups or vtuber events you're excited for?
To be honest, CarrierCon may actually have the most unique venue I've seen for a con
>>10969178whos going to cosplay as shimakaze
I wish I would have bought a ticket sooner. I never expected for it to sell out. Or how fast it sky rocketed in popularity. Basically unknown in 2023. Very nice and small in 2024. 2025 God it was overcrowded. I guess the ticket limits for this year are to prevent that. Still sad that I'm missing out.
bit late to respond, but i went there just to hangout with friendscon tickets were limited to 600 per dayfelt like a dead con compared to last year
Tempted to go next year with Ace Combat 8 being the main setting for it. The guests looked great this year too.
What was your first cosplay? >did a closet cosplay from a hotline miami mod maybe 26 people played>most work I did was dyeing a stupid hat
10963862AMAZING post, you absolute fucking faggot
>>10963870why thank you, kind sir
>>10961695Thanks! Got to take it for a spin during dragon con. Got some pretty sweet pictures of it.
>>10841915I started wearing a cowboy hat
>>10966504love the pseudo warhammerish look on this pic, love it, maybe you could capitalize on it?
Last year's HM was a whole lot better with the room party scene and late-night socializing, wonder how this year will be.
suzupoii thread
been masturbating to this pic lately
>>10969211don't talk about my sister that way. thank you.
What do you think of kids at cons? Good? Bad?Should more cons ban them, I've noticed actual porn stars at Comic Con dressed very revealing and selling their stuff there so maybe that should go 18+
>>10968114> Anon posts on the most coomer website outside of pornMost people going to cons are degens already. In fact, most people are degens. Ergo, there really shouldn't be any families going to anime cons when the majority of the people attending are just single people or couples wearing skimpy clothes.
>>10968109This happened yesterday at katsu.>10pm, clearly time for slutty outfits to start coming out.>With my friends, walking around. All od us Wearing a somewhat adult outfits.>Some mom and her kid ask for a photo with me.>Agree because the kid said his name was the same as my character.>Suddenly 5 other kids come out of the woodwork, youngest one being like 3 years old, and start clambering to be in the photo. >3 of them are touching me.>One of them grabs my inner thigh.>Nope out of there.What. The. Fuck.
I say let kids attend Anime conventions. I don't get you fucking weirdos with your hatred for kids other than the fact nobody wants to have children with you BPDemoms and degen males or you're still traumatized by some normies kids mocking you for playing dress up or because you're autistic.Keep the skimpy slutty cosplays for nighttime shit when there aren't any kids.
>>10967959>ven then, the whole hyper-sexualized cosplayers never made sense to begin with, since it feels like a step away from full on porn/sex shit in public.I mean, cons have always been kinda freaky. What annoys me is that 99.9% of sexualized cosplay these days is just girls advertising their onlyfans. Used to be a girl at a con in a slutty costume was probably either an exhibitionist getting off or a hornygirl who actually wanted to get fucked that night and I can respect that, shit if I could dress up in an outfit that made every girl that saw me wet I'd probably do it too, and shit, a lot of us older guys in the con scene would probably be way less adjusted and experienced if it weren't for slutty cosplayers. I hate that now it's all fake and done for profit.
>>10947633My first con I went to I dressed as Ash Ketchum and their was a bunch of Misty cosplayers that year. My 11 year-old horny ass never got so much attention from woman before, I would've let them straight shota me if they wanted too
