Convention story thread. Talk about weird/fun shit that happened. We all have one.
>at room party
>go to the bar
>touched a girl's hand
Yeah, shit was pretty cash money.
Last year at anime expo me and some friends were hanging out in front of the convention center and there was traffic backed up. So there were a group of black dudes in a car and had no idea what was going on. They see a sluty sailor moon as nd start yelling "ayyyy yo is that sailor moon?" "Ayyy biych come over here".
It was genuinely funny to see people who have no idea what is going on.
>cosplay shippuden hinata back in 2010
>go to gathering
>only shippuden hinata to go off site and hang out with about 20 other people for more photos

>>9002409
I am interested in a cosplay social site too... I want to find my dream bf Levi
>>9002409
There's a popular cosplay social app but idk what it is called. There's cosplyr and cos planner app tho.

Rejoice!
>Anyone have a favorite lolita game? Dress up or otherwise?
>I just bought all the clothes from that lolita shop in TWEWY
>>9001616
Am I missing something? Nothing about this looks remotely Lolita.
>>9001621
The previous games have a category for Lolita fashion, most of which actually looks good.
>>9001639
And they've even had collabs with BABY.
I am so unbelievably excited this game is finally coming to the US! I wish there were more games like this out there.
Does anyone have any store recommendations for otaku/akiba kei fashion? It's a bit hard to come across online.
Stuff like omocat I guess. Full print anime/hentai tees and the like.

Dumping what little bit I have.

How old is "too old to start cosplay"
>>9000471
You're too old to start cosplaying when you're literally dead.
>>9000471
I think its a matter of how healthy you are, rather than age.
If youre well enough to get around a convention center , even if only for a few hours, than you're still young (or well enough) to start cosplay. If you go to more western based and generally 'older' cons, you'll find find tons of people that are older than 40, 50, and even beyond that. Plus a lot of older people like to dress in historical costumes for ren faires and such.
Personally I dont endorse blocking a whole aisle...

You can't be too old to cosplay, though I personally believe you can be too old to cosplay certain characters. 35 year olds dressing as 15 year olds doesn't look right.
Last thread went 404.
Post pics of the tea party and discussion. No dramu.
Why was the old thread deleted anyway?
>>9001276
Probably because the mods hate CG
>>9001372
The mod is probably a salty fat chinese lolita
How should I cosplay Megumin if I'm a man with haired legs and armpits and I have a beard? My dad is a farmer and he don't understand me, if I'd shave my beard he'll decide I'm a gay :(
>>9000262
1. you don't
2. you cosplay it but make it like MANGUMIN instead of regular megumin
3. tell your dad to suck a dick and that if he accuses you of being gay it's because he has unresolved issues involving his own attractions to men that he doesn't want to face
>>9000262
>Megumin and gay
Or
>Hairy and sad
Decide.
>>9000262
gender bend it
>Cons are either super expensive guest fest or frat boy parties
>Japanese guests rarely seen
>More dub/cosplay nonbodies booked at "guests of honor" at high profile events
>Bad management plagues 90% of cons that enforce policies that either cripple the information flow or just dick attendees and staff
What the hell is happening to CA cons?
I believe this sort of con happened at DashCon. Although I may be wrong. There was a con in Fresno at one point, which was fun.
AX has the Japanese part covered most of the time but that abortion of a safety policy sours it
omg noo i just moved to california... please don't tell me that the con scene here isn't as crappy as the cons in florida
THE NEW FACE OF TERROR
Last AX thread (>>8970434) hit bump limit
We're now less than two months away from Anime Expo.
Cosplay plans?
What are you hyped to see?
Thoughts on the latest news?
>It appears that they've shut down comments on both their YouTube videos.
>I've noticed that there were a lot of dislikes one of them.
they've also been viewed less than a thousand times combined so I have a feeling no one actually gives a shit about the program unless you shove it in their face like they are with all the artists, press, and exhibitors.
I'll be cosplaying as a Death Korps of Kreig and Mega Melf (mega milk version of DnD's Melf). I'll be in lolita either monday or whenever the local comm's meet is.
Super stoked about the apartment I'm renting, stupid cheap for what I'm getting. Airbnb 4 lyfe.
>>8996669
How much and how far was the place you snagged? I took a look at the possibility and if you could get a few friends to split the prices looked pretty good compared to a hotel.
Any KC area weebs going to Sausomecon in June? I heard they're upgrading venues this year, anyone go last year?
http://sausomecon.com
ALSO, Naka-Kon announced their summer picnic today
>>8995190
>>8995191
(The two events aren't affiliated, but Sausomecon is doing a Dottecon one day thing at the Wyandotte library today for free comics day)
I'm going to Sausomecon and looking forwards to it but I'm too old to be assed for Rekon. I don't wanna drive to KC and pay $5 for hot dogs and sit out in the heat even though I went for years as a younger weeb.
I'm pissed that the Sausomecon panel submission deadline is less than a month before the con. I just wanna know if I'm accepted so I can really get my panel in order.
The cosplayer in me is jealous, but the engineer in me is pissed. How tf do you have the time and resources to print a solid suit of armor? How many spools do you think this took?
Same. A lot of those shapes look simple enough where it wouldn't even be difficult to make with foam. While 3D printing is cool, new and exciting, i frequently ask.... why?
>>8990275
>>where do you get the time and resources?
Desperate betas that throw money at you thinking you will fuck them or one rich beta that will print it for you.
>>8990275
> the time and resources
>"geekfablab (oh and I, I guess)"
> Patreon, probably
S-so is Meltia kill? Say it ain't so gulls. I haven't kept up with them for quite sometime and the lack of a Meltia thread is a little disheartening.
I haven't been following since the last thread was killed, but their Twitter tells me there's still 4 girls in the group at least..
They were in the recording studio though so new song soon?
I'm pretty sure they're not kill, aren't they starting to do twitter streams?
>>8966267
I hope so! I want to throw money at them for official releases!
Just noticed there isn't a Miraculous thread so lets get this going
Post all things Miraculous related, art, WIPs, and all the rest
>>8943994
Looking good so far anon! You've got a great figure for Ladybug as well.
I'm planning a Volpina cosplay at the moment, (no pics as I'm waiting for the money to pick up fabric) and I'll be doing Ladybug as well at a later date!
>>8943994
Looks awesome! I love the suit how'd you make it so form fitting. Did you use a pattern?
>>8943994
Looks good so far anon!
I am working on an Antibug cosplay myself. But I only have the wig so far, so not much to show here.
Didn't see one so made one.
Picture: outfits nice but I think it's thrown off by the tights and headdress. If it where the back one maybe it wouldn't look so off to me.
>>9006656
Definitely agree on the headdress, it should be black. The socks are.. interesting.. The gold looks out of place since there's no other accents to bind it into the outfit. My biggest concern is the shoes though.. Seriously, normalfag shoes in gothic?
>>9006659
Holy shit I didn't even notice the shoes. I was too busy questioning the choice of headdress that I didn't notice the miss matched shoes.
>>9006656
It's bad coording, which is nothing new from this girl.
The headdress is stark, it doesn't fit the goth aesthetic, imo something black or blackxwhite would have been a much nicer touch. The socks clash, the shoes don't match, and she needs a wig. It doesn't even feel gothic, maybe she didn't know what style she was trying to portray and mashed up a little of everything. You can't just add white items to the coordinate because there is white in the dress, that's a novice mistake.
Old thread >>8996394
AP has a lot of new release updates! Did you message Tenshi months ago, or will AP never return to their former glory? Would you rather see (another) re-release?
Do you have any plans for ILD?
Please keep it EGL-related this time guys!
Antoinette Decoration, for AP's 15th Anniversary!
