Took me 6 1/2 hours to remember there was gonna be a thread question>Do you notice between treated differently by people, depending on which character you're dressed as?
>>10941676Anons, how long did it take for you to reach a satisfying result with doing your own make up, as in something you would dare to go outside with? I feel so intimidated by the complexity, but really want to get into it. My closet is full of cute clothes that I don't wear (yet) and it breaks my heart each time I look at it...
>>10941690>Do you notice between treated differently by people, depending on which character you're dressed as?Yes, kinda. I think it really depends on how forward you are with you being a boy. I've crossplayed several times in public now and every time has been a slightly different reaction in public. I think it's more been the result of the popularity of the cosplay than the reaction to it, honestly. Something like Chihiro from Danganronpa, for example, got a lot more hits than my obscure anime girl I love cosplay. But I think what was most telling was me going as Madoka recently and getting "they"'d by a girl. Really made me realize I'll probably never escape my perception of being a boy as a crossplayer, but honestly that's fine. I think it's important to be confident in being a "crossplayer" first and "passing" second.>>10941715It took me quite a long time to really be satisfied with it, but I'd say I was pretty confident after a year or so of mistakes. 6 months is probably a minimum of how much better you'll get, but it all depends on your own willingness to practice (and your budget because makeup can be a bitch if you're not prepared to spend the money). Either way, the best way you'll be able to get better at it is to just practice, ask for advice from girls (specifically girls, other guys don't give nearly as good of advice), and test out makeup tutorials you find interesting. At the point I'm at I can pretty feasibly replicate makeup from other people myself but it's taken a while to get the right makeup for everything.
>>10941690i mean if you cosplay erotia char as a boy youre deff getting the stares
>>10941826Well funny you mention that because I get more leering eyes in some of the moderate costumes over the scanty ones
>>10941827how odd, but-t thats not what you want!
>>10941828Correct. If I had to guess it's about color psychology more than anything
The agony of having US size 10 / Euro 42 / 26cm feet and not being able to fit into super cute round-toe Mary Janes
>>10941846I see cute shoes going up to size 10 all the time on AliExpress. Try being an 11!
>>10941827because male physique is hidden
What kind of reaction do nonnies get when crossplaying in public?
>>10941909>Older folksCurious, inquisitive, overwhelming praise "cuz it's just SO CUTE">Younger folksExcitement, condescending amusement, desire to join my party / have me join their party>KidsBlank, unbroken staring with thinly veiled confusion or disgust>>10941908What was meant by this
>>10941917>what was meant by thisi am my only love.other more pressing matter:my heels cracked, been putting off checking it out for a bit now and idk if its worth going to the cobbler, i got them for really cheap and repair is gonna cost more than them. I spent more on the gold paint than i did on the heels.i have some shoe glue, but idk if this can be fixed so easily? if its even worth it, should i just get new ones? cant find this model anymore so ill have to compromise again. Other heel doesnt have visible damage but is wobbly idk how to fix that. dont dance the wheel in heels i guess.
>>10941947...sorry meant "literally me"this is the other one idk how to fix it should i just rip and re-connect?
>>10941909well boomers love this shit, they love seeing the youth be youthful. In my country the communist youth did all kinds of things that would be called "degenerate" today online, idk where the stereotype of a stuck-up consercitard boomer comes from, even the ones with literal fascist tattoos loved me for this. If anything as i said it was only the country bumpkin descendant zoomers and woketard philosphy majors who hated me for it.
>>10941885i kina wish i can hide my frame, my barrel chest makes it impossible, its a shame when i went online in costume i still get called a cutie but i know its impossible irl
>>10942106Barrel chest like elon musk?IDK man shit out of luck, i got lucky with this cause my hips are wider than my waist and just under the width of my shoulders
>>10942148yeah, my chest size after puberty is just rip, i got good thighs but that wont make up my form, im just to big now, not fat just tall and big, with still a passable face, like my only options are female knights at this point
>>10942150Thighs aren't really a problem, pads can fix it.I don't really have a passable face and i don't ever really feel like i am able to achieve the look without a mask. It's me talking but i think that's the most important part
>>10942106My barrel chest was an issue for a bit but then I realized that I can utilize it with breast padding to give myself pretty large breasts that look natural. Adaptation is key when crossdressing, and unfortunately not all body types will be able to pull off the exact same type of crossdressing. But you can adapt and do what you think fits your body.
Yall gay
>>10942297ok.
>>10942150>>10942164>>10942292I have the same thing- barrel chest and broad shoulders. I use large diameter breast pads that don't protrude much and also only wear outfits that are tight at the bust and at the waist but not under the bust- that way my chest looks like it's just breasts. Ample hip padding along with platforms do the rest of the work.
>>10942298Not really
>>10942363Great bot post, I upvoted
>>10942317Adding on to this: use butt padding as well to make your side profile look less awkward.
>>10942292>>10942317Yeah I've padded to proportions before, looks great, trapped on camera/webcam, too big IRL i fear :(
