Anyone else here went?Or was it just me and my gfIt was hectic, a little disorganized, and full of wannabe streamers (thankfully less than last year) but still a fun as fuck experience
Do the people at Dreamcon actually care about cosplay and animanga? Most of their cosplays weren't accurate in the slightest, but I guess as long as they look "sexy" it's fine to them.
>>10973678>There was white people there tooWhy would they subject themselves to this?
>>10973693Because the alternative is AM.
>>10973691Fight Night
>>10973696Is AM bad
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.
>>10972489the top kind of ruins the look imo
>>10969479Hey anon If you want to search for a shiny boots that fit your leg You need to measure your leg first. if you already find the result after measuring your legs then the thing you need to do is buy a shiny boots that has the same size you already measure before. About the fake boobs, i can't help you with that so i'm sorryIdk my thread Will help you since i never go to a con before and i'm apologize for my bad English
>>10969515No idea, but ask this guy

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?
>>10957775heeeyy mythie I hope you're doing well... That fuckass photo I took gives me flashbacks lmao. At least you didn't have two other dudes spooning eachother in that bed with you one night :(Meet people at cons beforehand and figure out if they're chill. Once you find the right people that aren't creeps and pay properly then try rooming with them again.
i was once too tired and drunk after a rave and some rando i was dancing with offered to let me stay in their room for $20. shockingly i agreed and i found myself in a room of what seemed like an impossible amount of people. i akwardly found a corner of the floor to rest on and overheard other people start hooking up then walk over me to the bathroom i was laying next to and i listened to them fuck for a bit before i realized it was daylight and i just let myself out of the room and walked out to eat something and catch a bus since they where running again and my ass spent too much money in the dealer room to uber.7/10
yeah. 2 beds and with 3 of my friends, i shared a bed with a friend i have an insane crush on. i was going through a lot at the time and had a bit of a nervous breakdown when i felt like my crush wasn't paying attention to me/avoiding me. managed to keep my sobbing to a level no one could hear. me and crush ended up talking a lot about it. i had an early flight in the morning and gently woke her up because i wanted to talk to her a bit before hand. gently caressed her face and whispered to her how much she meant to me, how perfect she was and recited some dogshit poetry i made up about how wonderful she is. she was receptive to that. we'll never be together.hit the lowest low and the highest high over that con and rode the high to enroll in a 6 month tradeschool program, finishing next month. want to be better for her. it's never going to happen but she makes me want to be a better person.
>>10899061First time I shared a con room with total internet strangers was ACEN this year, had a blast. Mutual discord friends, we had 6 of us in one room. They were strangers but it was still awesome and got me tapped in on the forest rave. Only real rule was put a sock on the door if u fuckkin (never happened once lmao)No problems related to the sleeping arrangement, and I would absolutely do it again.
>>10973875hello fellow forest rave goer
old one's gone
I'll be attending on the 11th, Hopefully. I Also hope there will be alot of pictures taken at the NYCstuck this weekend
I've always loved this Davesprite.

Any seagulls going to ANYC? 30 days to go!
>>10973850I'll be cosplaying as Jirou Tomitake from Higurashi, if you see come grab a badge ribbon and say hi.Any other 07th cosplayers, we need to set up a meetup and photoshoot.
Thoughts when you see this?
>>10973780What body type do you think that Inuyasha is then?
>>10973785Inuyasha is canonically a twink.
>>10973793And the Inuyasha in that pic does not look twinkish to you?
Someone this cute can't be a girl! ...Wait a second.
>>10973684I need to train more
anons, i want to make battle android cosplay but im having trouble, idk how to make those legs using Eva foam 5mm and 2mm (both are 80kg/m3)
>>10973812Just pop the legs open and do what the manufacturer did but with foam
I would 3d model it and use pepakura designer to create a pattern. You will need a belt sander to get the clean looking chamfers.Might be able to help if you post some contact info.
>jfash these japanese fascist sure dress in a curious way
Okay really what do we do with these fine people gone? Where has everyone started shopping at since they closed? The convenience they offered by having local stores to sample fabrics in person instead of ordering online hoping the color and material works was a blessing and I am lost without them
Just to add to the convo I've noticed a couple of combination fabric/re-use craft supply stores pop up and it's been nice to see. They're usually in smaller spaces, but I've noticed the fabric selections for these types of establishments are much higher quality (100% linen, silk, cotton, wool etc) and I additionally love digging through smaller supplies of notions and laces for various craft projects.
>>10973601>well given that everyone comes to them for fabric I dont think many people share your sentiment.I meant moving back to LA, not visiting for shopping. I wouldn't visit either these days though just because flight+hotel+car rental etc. would make the trip cost more than a trip to Japan does these days.
>>10973601>It's fucking crazy to me that people think sewing is a "niche" thing, as if everyone doesn't wear clothes or has a sewing machine their parents owned.And most of those people only use that machine once or twice a year to hem pants or curtains that they bought. Sewing your own clothing from scratch is far less common than it used to be, and stores like Joann always heavily favored quilting and "craft" fabrics over apparel fabric for that reason. Look at Hobby Lobby now, the tiny amount of apparel fabric they carry is just stuff for Halloween costumes and children's pajamas.
>>10972341mom and pop fabric shops are everywhere. Your technology helps you find it. Open your map app and type "fabric" You already have multiple options and suggestions
>>10973746Nobody does this, asking people first shows that you're friendly and sociable.
To counteract all the moids here and the overwhelming spamming of slutty girls, here's a thread dedicated to the cuties who cosplay. Emphasis on the "cute" part. Bodybuilders cosplaying just to show off their abs are just as bad as the girls who only do it for onlyfans.
>>10947237name?
>>10859848bukkit's a cutie
>>10933877>>10885773he's such a cutie. how does one obtain a himbo cosplayer bf?
i dunno when drawthreads tapered off here but i periodically check back and there just never is one. so ill be the change I want to see in the world. post coords for me to draw, thank you. (and other artists too of course)
>>10969919This one's >>10969393 relatively recent
>>10969922Oops, meant this one>>10969446
The HD upscaler filter kind of chewed up some of the finer details, but I love this dress.

What are the pros and cons of each format when taking a shot of a cosplayer in your experience?
>>10973775Photo:>you have to edit and filter it later>requires setup and more time to take>looks anywhere from okay to MUCH bettervideo:>more genuine, captures moving body language, posture, emotional energy etc>you can move the focus around while filming which makes you more likely to get creeped on. Its hard to tell if the guy videoing you is aiming at your tits or not you can only tell laterVideos are better if you're more attractive but photos are more professional and can make mid people look good
Also forgot to add, if the person filming you is really gross looking compared to you and you're uncomfortable being near them, then you can actually ask for a refund by saying you felt sexually harassed. Just threaten to tell other people and then poof the money re-appears in your hands or account
>>10973776>women try not to abuse society's willingness to defend them if they call for help challengedifficulty: impossible
>Little over one month away>Not much talkFuck it. Might as well get a general thread for this con going.August 1st and 2nd at the Vibe Credit Union Showplace in Novi, Michigan.Tickets available at https://www.michigananime.com/tickets
>>10973621Probably it's due to restrictions from the venue.
Ill be there hosting a Gunpla workshop and model contest. Will also have my Gundam EZ8 costume on display and should have a new suit as well.
Schedule is live https://www.michigananime.com/schedule2026
>Anime HangmanOk this sure seems like fun and it's hosted by a voice actress who's voiced plenty of meme-worthy characters.
>>10973745Sick.
What are the most interesting cosplay props you've seen? Pic related is an extremely heavy dark magician girl staff, it weighs 60 lbs and most cosplayers can't hold ithttps://www.instagram.com/reel/DVOju54kk8R/https://www.youtube.com/shorts/muPmztRvltUDamn she's so strong!
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/mPfMFjPx5m0at least this man is strong enough to do it
>>10973771https://www.tiktok.com/@littlejem4/video/7556019846010522902smooth design, moving parts too
I was wondering if I ever make a cosplay, I firstly understand what makes it bad. Even if I dress properly, make up, good wig, I feel like it would look bad anyway. I was wondering if it is something else, like face structure or just being ugly. Also not talking about cosplays that don't match body build or those that want to look bad ironically.
>>10970540Is that a FAMAS
>>10972821no its a FG42its a german paratooper rifleifk it looks neat on her.
>>10972842I think anon was meme'ing. Also, the barrel is upside down...
>>10833478Usually the cosplay itself is great in those cases, the cosplayer just isn't the right shape for it.It's a show of skill in sewing and costume design but a fat girl can't be a thin girl no matter what she wears.
>>10830561>dirty ass tennis shoeshehehe joke's on you, I'm going as a member of the shadow wizard money gang, and big fly shoes are part of my aesthetic choice of footwear
