>mfw realizing cosplay is only worth it if you're attractive
>>10964357Or just do "funny" cosplays.Everyone loves the fat guy who does peter griffin every year.Nobody likes the fat guy who tries to do some "hot" cosplay.
>>10967079>Nobody likes the fat guy who tries to do some "hot" cosplay.what if its ironic crossplay
>>10968475its only funny if you make it obvious that you're doing it for funnies.Fat bearded guy in a Miku outfit wearing suspenders and a "yamaha" logo around his belly button? Funny.Fat guy in a "femboy hooters" outfit wearing the exact same outfit you just saw some 5ft5 twink wearing? Not funny.
>>10878507Do a masked or helmeted character.
I'm a pretty average looking guy and I still find joy from crafting costumes and props and have made genuine connections with many people through it, including finding my wife.If your goal is to get Instagram followers then yeah, you need to be a conventionally attractive woman willing to flash your T and A, or an attractive man that is extremely talented. If you just want to have fun and meet people, you just need to have a genuine smile and a can-do attitude.
Why don't 90s Nicktoons get cosplayed at conventions much? I see Gir from Invader Zim, Fairly OddParents, SpongeBob and Avatar: The Last Airbender cosplays at every convention I go to and I see Danny Phantom cosplays at a lot of them, so why don't people like cosplaying something like Angry Beavers? And I know Tiny Toon Adventures only reran on Nick, but I never see Tiny Toons cosplays ever either.
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?
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
>>10899061>Have you done it before?Yes>Where did you find people to split the room with?Facebook>Were they strangers?Yeah. There were 6 people in total including me. I had a single bed.>What rules were usually in place for the convention weekend?Just the standard stuff I assume, but nothing that was established.>Did any problems arise?Yes, kind of. I unexpectedly brought a girl back to the room with me very late at night. She had trouble getting home and I was gonna just let her crash for the night. My mistake for not asking first. Genuinely I had no ulterior motives with her, but after we got in to bed she initiated pretty strongly and we ended up having sex.Turns out everyone else in the room was awake for it.They were pretty cool about it but I dipped out of the room in shame and got a solo room at another place. Paid my full share still of course.>Would you do it again?Yes. And I have, though I never caused such an incident again.

>>10926061any new pics?
Shes so good jacking off to
Heya /cgl/! I made the decision to give cosplaying a try. I cant describe how much i enjoyed it, especially because im a very extroverted person. What do you guys think of my first cosplay? :]
>>10962619lol
>>10948725so you don't know
>>10948725>>10949609who are these "some"?
>>10948725>>10949609Stop bumping this
>>10904266Pretty sure it's just a type of character. I remember it existing as far back as 2014 when this song was popular but it's probably even older than that.
reviving bc the previous thread from a while ago got nukedwhat's everyone's thoughts on cosplay photography in 2024/the foreseeable future? it seems like the amount of bullshit we have to put up with as photographers in the cosplay scene only increases day by day and the cons outweigh the pros
>>10969031i love xiaohongshu and chinese cosplayers. they look so good
>>10969022I was at a con last year, went out for a smoke, and a perfect silent hill nurse sat down on the bench next to me, half rolled up her mask and was eating a chik-fil-a sandwich out of the box. I regret not getting a shot, it was iconic
>>10973814Taking pictures of cosplayers while they're eating is rude. Unless you get their permission, don't do that shit.
>>10969076I have a print out of one of the revisions way before she decided to tone it down one final time.-https://drive.google.com/file/d/1B-rdVMWxGjWPnonuwYf5zoYJ7dTM96Uv/view?usp=sharing
>>10973822You sound like a fag and your shit's all retardedThis isn't redditWhy don't you tell me your pronouns
I tried using their link tree but the discord link wouldn't work. I was trying to find which girls were at the rave this night.But with that aside how was everyone's gencon, both cosplayers and cosplay enjoyers
share images of your favourite maid cosplays, whether it be the cutest girls or the most fashionable and intricate designs.
>>10970653Aliexpress trash + hrt skin tone Go back to discord
>>10970653>no gloves while handling a firearmcan't even pretend to be a proper maid, get some self respect
>>10920818There used to be a Japanese brand called "Emily" that made really good quality maid outfits for the money. They might still exist but it's been years since I broke up with the gf that was into them so I'm not sure. They were hard to find online but easy to get in Japan or at larger conventions in the US.
are you still able to apply to use a panel room for a movie screening at a convention? i might do that next year.
oh, it seems like screening rooms were always managed by the convention runners and seemingly don’t exist anymore. i thought it would be cool to bring some lesser known anime series and movies to local cons.
>>10974299depends on the con committee desu. you can probably get away with this at a smaller con with programming gaps but not at a big one where they get more applicants than they have timeslots
Who is going to MCM Birmingham this week? Any cosplayers? First time attending and I'm a little nervous
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
I miss the Ita threads too.
>>10974162there is nothing stopping anyone from making a thread
Are they against TOS now or something?
>>10974147This board is just dead. Everyone interested in these hobbies has long since moved on to normal social media/discord/whatever. Look around, there are threads still in the catalog that are over 3 years old. Like, go ahead and make a thread if you want to, but you'll probably just be talking to yourself.
This is the new ita thread. Post the itas
Thoughts on this cosplay?
Average store bought Spiderman zentai suits?
Any gals here?
>>10972327stop caring about if its popular or not, do it if you like it
>>10972757those are just gaijin traps , they do yabi, not gyaru
>>10973858why is men j-fash so femenine, I can't fucking stand it, women j-fash is top-tier, men get gayboyed hard, there's no way in hell I'm wearing any of that
u like womens fashion but think mens is too feminine? so ur just uncomfortable in ur masculinity
>>10973858This isn't what i was asking>>10973892don't then Herr Alpha Male
