Anyone else going?
Did the grill truck get their alcohol dumped out by jannies too?I saw them start doing it to the rave truck but then after they dumped a couple someone came and took the cooler back from them
>>10972454Nah, AN staff are as soft as baby shit. They didn't dare go out during Saturday when the grill was out and people were playing sets at the other truck. But they did shut the grill down on Friday, near the truck rave.
>>10972454they did but the grill and truck people threatened them which is why AN jannies should be allowed to open carry
>>10972479>which is why AN jannies should be allowed to open carryAN staff as /k/ommandos would actually be pretty cool.
Day 1126, my boy is still banned
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
>>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
>>10969683I know where but I can't tell, or else the coomers will follow
Idk whatever happened to the help thread so I'm making a new one. Post your questions related to costume making, techniques and stuff.I used to scroll /cgl/ back in 2018 and participate helping other ppl. I took a long break from cosplaying and want to get back to it.
>>10970492I'll go first>Be me>Have a cute bf>Get Glitch Studios hype disorder, watch MID Drones show>Project too hard on main characters>Immediatly plan cosplaysHow can I make decent looking robot legs for Uzi Doorman cosplay.I was thinking maybe buy silver tights and paint on them. I've been looking Mettaton cosplayers for reference. How do they add black lines on highly synthetic fabric?
>>10970493Use a silvery stretch fabric. Put batting/foam between two layers and stitch together to make the ridges.
>>10970492>be me>first time cosplayer>first time at a con>Will do Asa MitakaMy grandma will help me with the skirt, is there something i should know to make the cosplay better? i will start with the ribbon soon
>>10970513Good makeup and nice shoes. Remember to always press your clothes properly.Simple costumes get carried by good fitting, makeup and small details. Learn to contour your face, get good anime/dolly lashes and learn eyeliner techniques if you haven't already.
How to improve?
May 15th - 17th, 2026.Hyatt Regency O’Hare & Donald E Stephens Convention CenterDo you have a cosplay picked out yet?Any particular events or panels you're hoping to catch?What part of the convention floor are you most drawn to?Are you traveling in from out of town or staying nearby?Will you be attending solo or with friends?
>>10971714Yeah, I shoulda. Ah well, maybe next year.
>>10972077The guy after snacks sucked so bad i left the rave for an hour. Weird AI sumo wrestlers and AI beats.
>>10972114AI visuals != AI musicall the music that Soichi Terada performed live was made in the NINTIES lmao, including music from the soundtrack to the Playstation game Ape Escape>>10972077lmao I figured that was you, I noticed the avatar at the beginning of the set

Some big news here from last night. Shoufu-Con has sadly been cancelled for this year.
Want to let you all know here that I'll be at LTU Expo in about a few weeks. Going to be an interesting time to be honest here.
So who's going to Penguicon? I never been and it looks really small so idk if I want to do a big cosplay or not.
>>10969432MCCC is coming up who's going?
Motor City Comic Con was a blast! Met some new friends and got a nice haul.
Just wanted to share the cosplays I completed last year
This thread is now so old that the girl in the OP looks super different than she does currently with all the work she's had done over the years
>>10969767I know, let's bump it even more, like an insane person who can't let go of what has been 4 years ago
i like seeing posts with her and her friends because she's either a prestige level mogger or she's editing herself and leaving her friends uneditedshe makes satin look like the fat friend and otter look like the ugly one
>>10969942>>10969751i love handling an assertive woman
If anyone meets her this weekend let us know how it goes
were you there? didja bring a cosplay and everything?
...for that matter; what are your thoughts on theme parks that allow cosplays for a few events?
>>10970357I think it's neat. Not sure about Orlando but Universal Hollywood also allows costumes during HHN, though most don't dress up since it's usually very hot and uncomfortably crowded. Most of the cosplay I saw at Fanfest was from the featured IPs (I did not cosplay).As for the event I think they're kinda stuck between not wanting to pour too much money into something with so-so attendance, but also needing to do more and not cheap out to attract attendees. The lines for the One Piece restaurant were crazy though, so they're definitely making decent money on the food. If you like rides, pretty much everything was a walk-on including Mario Kart.
>>10970359ye and the lines for the character meet-n-greets were long as heck too
last week for fanfest btwwhat're y'all cosplaying as?
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.
>>10868287Women can't do anything these days without backlash. If they can make a quick buck doing something they like then fair play to them. Also they wouldn't be doing it if there wasn't a market for it as OP has shown
If they actually cosplay and come have fun at cons? You do you, even if I find it odd.If they just wear a wig and do porn? Fuck off, go get blacked or some shit hoe. My only other issue is if they go to cons explicitly to just get risque pics in the general area for their OF. Go rent a studio, hotel, airbnb, whatever. Why do that shit at a con? People paying to have a good time arent your backdrop and dont consent to it, its awkward as hell having someone find you in the background of some whore's smut.
>>10868287Would 3 let me kiss her feet, tights and nylon gloves for $5 instead? So horny and lonely.
>>10925901Lying gay man
>>10872877Boob grabs would likely fall under prostitution laws. You can't even touch strippers in the US, though you can in French Canada. The jurisprudence carve-out for the kinks is obviously a violation of the spirit of the law.
>Animaga - did you enjoy the idols?>A-MUSE announced as guests at Animayhem Brisbane>Upcoming lives: Neonism and Patopi bar concept, Azusa grad, SeiPro two-man, Himizu one-man. Which one are you looking forward to?>What idols have you been listening to recently?
>>10970427That makes sense. Japanese stuff tends to have more of a dedicated audience. Everyone recognises popular characters from recent anime and manga, but a general audience won’t recognise any manhwa characters, even if the manhwa is widely read. Korean comics feel very ephemeral. I’ve read many, but hardly remember them at all. Meanwhile, I’ve never read Jujutsu Kaisen or Chainsaw Man, but I would recognise the characters anywhere. Even with gaming, Nier: Automata made much more of a cultural impact than Stellar Blade. Maybe for this reason you guys prefer j-idols, although I personally can’t get into j-idol music
Personally I like both korean and japanese music in multiple genres, and both k-idols and j-idols and both countries have a pretty vibrant music scene. K-pop does actively promote itself internationally a lot more than the jpop industry. And because of that work kpop has grown a big fanbase overseas. But for whatever reason that fandom participation has focused almost entirely on recreating the choreo instead of the vocals from their favorites.And it's not to say that jpop isn't without its share of generic slop. There are dozens and dozens of mid generic fluffy costume, simple bubbly love song j-idol groups out there that are invisible to the international audience.
Did anyone go to Animayhem? How was Paida?
It was fun but I didn't know half of her songs.
How is Himawari both in Japan and the Philipines at the same time
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
>>10969692i suggest to check second hand websites because you can find some pretty good cheap stuff on there. interacting with lots of jirai content has helped me improve a lot too!
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.
>>10949139cutest coord!

>>10933778It's autumn
>>10934533the meteorological summer season starts on June 1 and lasts three months, until September 1.Astronomical summer lasts from the date of the summer solstice until the autumnal equinox, which occurs in the Northern Hemisphere on September 22 or 23Where do you live where it's autumn already?Where I live we can still get heat waves until mid october at the latest. If I get past that point I finally feel like it's autumn even though it officially started ages ago.Also, to clarify why I made that comment; I don't associate hot weather with halloween, and it will be a few months (from when halloween stuff starts popping up in stores, not from now) until halloween is actually there.
not falling off anytime soon
>>10756720It hurts me to this day that I never got to visit the physical store....
>>10773355Maybe try searching for pastel goth room inspo
>jfash these japanese fascist sure dress in a curious way
Guys, how old is too old?Like, I am an oldfag in his mid 40s. Used to be very involved in the con scene back in the 90s and early 00s. I am currently on a very nostalgic mood about those days of yore, and planning to visit a few of the big cons to see how's the fandom nowadays. Would I be, as you youngsters say, cringe? Worse, would other congoers immediately assume I am a creepy pedophile? I don't really want to ruin some kids con experience like that.Two things, I would be attending alone because the few con buddies from back then that I still keep in contact, are too jaded and busy to give a shit. Also, I am considering if it is a good idea to go cosplaying as an old timer character.
>>10970864Lose weight.
>>10970864agree with you desu
>>10970864>pedos>women in their 20sThis has gotten so retarded that it wouldn't be unreasonable to assume you're being facetious.
>>10906516>Unless you try to hit in girls half your age you're fine.half his age is 20s lol that's fine
>>10970864>Seething pedosProjection
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?
Autisic thread
>>10941730What server is that?
>>10963113>Everyone except for one guy took turns jacking off in the bathroomi mean where else are they going to do it?
>>10964416On the biscuit
>>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.
