Latex thread!
What are some costumes/characters that latex works well for? I want to do a latex costume, but I don't want it to look too over the top fetish-y.

I disagree -- I think some superhero costumes look too trashy and costume-y in latex vs spandex. Pic related. I'd like ideas for characters who already look like they could be wearing latex.

That's Beauchamp; she's a fetish model who has the trashiest 80's look I've ever seen. I don't think she'd qualify as a cosplayer, nor this a cosplay, because it's literally a fetish outfit.

I have a feeling this is someone from /s/ just trying to get things to throw into their latex thread. Most superhero outfits look horrible in latex. Leather works better. Not only that, but it is impractical. Latex doesn't breathe. That's not exactly the best for running around several hours at a time.

Sorry this triggered your autism. Point is, that Supergirl costume would be pretty accurate if it were made of spandex, but the latex gives it a different and less accurate look regardless if who's wearing it.

The op clearly states they don't want anything too over the top fetish-y. That chick is over the top fetish-y.

Honestly hero outfits look more made of a sheer jersey. Almost a satin jersey for practicality. You can have that 'wet' look on different fabrics that aren't latex, spandex, or leather.

It's real, I do a lot of /co/splay in spandex but I want to try out some latex. Some costumes like plug suits, zero suit, shiny catsuits etc look nice in latex.
>>
>>8733360
My point was that it was never meant to be a cosplay, and was made for a fetish model as a fetish outfit, which isn't cosplay. Quit getting so upset and post actual cosplays/cosplayers, because there are plenty of good ones out there that weren't made for sexual stimulation.

Except that's shitty fanart and Supergirl's costume is not supposed to be rubbery and shiny. So not a great candidate for a latex cosplay, unlike Catwoman or something.
>>
>>8733368
Im talking more about the examples posted already. How they don't look good in latex. Spandex is less shiny and wet which can make it appear less feitishy, but a lot of the outfits look just fine in jersey and make more sense to how they are drawn or animated. Not every outfit is overly highlighted to make it appear latex. Characters like Black Cat, Cat Woman, other clearly meant to appear sexy outfits are purposefully drawn to give off the fetishy and sexy look. That's how the character is and that is how their outfit is portrayed, but get someone like Hawkgirl or Wonder Woman and you can tell the difference. Then you have someone like Black Canary who you can tell uses leather rather than latex for her one piece.

Im giving an alternative to latex if they want the shiny appeal. Supergirl has different costume highlights depending on the artist for the comic, so her outfit is actually dependent on the cosplayer's overall look they want to achieve. I agree, however, that Supergirl should be more in a jersey in general. As are a lot of outfits for superheroes. It looks better not only in photos, but you will have a better time walking around for hours on end.

You could also just opt to not shine the latex if you don't want the wet-fetishy look. It'll cling to the body better, but certainly is less practical due to wear ability reasons.

What are some costumes/characters that latex works well for?

Characters that already have skintight and shiny outfits, mostly comic book characters and sci-fi characters. It's a bit of a gimmick these days to make ____ costume in latex for the sake of it, when it's not in character or a shiny costume to begin with. It looks lovely if its fitted correctly and lubed up!

Pros:
+ gets that shine that pvc and wetlook cannot
+ smooth and more skintight than pvc
+ acts as a body shaper like spanx

Cons:
- exhausting to wear after a few hours
- can be ripped or torn if caught on sharp objects
- needs handler for shine/zip
- expensive to make and buy
- bruising can occur at joints if not enough lube is used to put on
- amplifies outside temperature

>>8733077
That's me. I work part time for a high end latex brand at the moment and own a few cosplays that translate well in latex.

I say you should buy a small latex piece like a pencil skirt and test it out if it's for you.

>>8733120
Latex Catfish is notorious for poor quality, so buy at your own risk. If you really want a great plugsuit invest in Andromeda Latex.

Latex I think works better for

>evil people or villains
Evil tends to be more showey and flashy than good.

>more sexual characters
Not just as in "hot." there's lots of characters who are sexy and/or show curves without being necessarily as sexualized. Catwoman vs supergirl up there is a good example.

>dark color combos

>bright or primary colors
Maybe this is the limits of the material to start with, but because it LOOKS so over the top to start, it doesn't make sense with more subtle character designs or color combos
>>
>>8733731
Maybe a stupid question, but do you wear underwear under latex?
>>
>>8734873
Whatever you wear under a latex outfit is going to show, so it's probably a thong or nothing. If you are going that far, may as well go commando unless it's a translucent outfit.

If its a pencil style long skirt (to the knees+) I don't wear underwear to avoid pantylines but if it's shorter or flared I wear those seamless basic undies to show little to no lines. Don't need to wear them for pants or catsuits but I recommend getting seamless panties or a basic thong for bodysuits since the sweat/lube can slip at the crotch if it's not a wide enough covering.

>pic related is what I prefer to wear under my pieces and shows almost nothing at all especially when the hip area is prone to wrinkles in the latex anyways

From what I've read on other boards, catfish's quality is improving. They may still not be able to compete with European suppliers in quality, but if you're willing to risk it (their price is ~1/3 the Euro shops) the price is right. Just prepare to be disappointed.

Their Eva catsuits *are* pretty cool, but if they'll obviously be catfish suits to anyone in the know. That said, you'll be wearing a latex plugsuit and they'll be in a basic seifuku so who's the boss now?

There are cases where the author clearly states that were the character played by a real person the outfit should be rubber. Such as Drusilla, and by extension her daughter, pic relevant. And yes, as mentioned earlier, she is evil, at least in her origins.

>>8734430
can you see the sticky bra because the suit it so tight or is it see through as well? Can latex be see through?
>>
>>8744522
A little of both.
Latex can be transparent but can also be made pretty opaque. In this case, it looks like it is slightly transparent as you can see it even though it's smooth on the outside (i.e. it's not just texture on the outside from being tight). And if it didn't fit so tight, even if it were slightly transparent you probably wouldn't be able to see through it so well due to scattering.

The hood didn't fit me right because it was the designer's head measurements and it was pretty tight around my neck. I remember having the hood off between locations of the shoot or waiting for the Joker's solo shoot to be finished. The components were catsuit, hood, gloves, socks, and the white bits were pvc ones from Artifice Clothing.

With the 0.35mm-0.40mm thickness of latex you only need to reduce the size of the pattern by 10-13% from the sides to make it fit comfortably and without wrinkling, if it's too tight it can cause asphyxia or bruising :c

>>8744522
Latex can be super transparent to completely opaque, I know that this Lady Deadpool was made with Kink Engineering's(old and discontinued) red which is a bit see through if shined on both sides with lube - other brands like Radical Rubber (which they now carry) have opaque reds if you're interested.

You could probably get most of those materials cheaper than that set. I've never had to use thinner and latex is actually more forgiving than people think! Also I found it easier to use q-tips to apply the rubber cement glue than using a brush. I actually used QD's Ryuko as a heavy base for mine, but I ended up using a thicker grade latex than she did for durability (which is why the pleats don't fall as well). I also applied latex (a thinner grade than the garment) on the armor instead of paint by using contact cement. The main think with latex though is to give yourself enough room to make mistakes, so making mock-ups and cutting large pieces and then taking them in as you go is what I found to be the best way to save material.

Nah, skin wouldn't sag that much at only 29 unless she lost weight or had been pregnant.

>get into latex?
Either it has a zipper (front or back, or rarely over the shoulders) in which case you need only a little lube and pull it on like a tight boiler suit.

Alternatively it has no entry zipper and you lube up well and enter through the neck.

There are videos that show this but probably not appropriate at /cgl/.
>>
>>8733120

Their craftsmanship is fine, it's the quality of the rubber they use that sets them behind makers like LatexNemesis, KE and Andromeda.

They use Chinese rubber which is cheap where as most every other maker uses 4D Rubber which is gorgeous.

Basically, if you know how to glue rubber together and can pattern well, you could take the base of the Catfish suits and make them look much better with some effort. IMO, a 200 catsuit beats a 2K catsuit from Adromeda IF you know what you're doing...

Used to make questionable copies of questionable quality using pictures that were not theirs. Now it appears they are cleaning up the act and provide outfits to models that should probably not be linked to here.

Ah torpedo tits Asuka. Did the maker nor the cosplayer not take into account that Asuka is 14 and looks 14 most of the time? Should have calmed that boob game down by two cup sizes.

Also I'm totally put off how latex used inappropriately (nearly all the outfit in this thread) totally puts the purely fetish look on cosplay. Leave that stuff in your bedroom.
If it doesn't call for latex don't do it. It will always look off.

>>8795146
Order some cheap latex from MJTrends to practice on (and then upgrade when you feel confident enough in construction) and use YouTube tutorials. There's so many resources out there that are simple enough to learn from, unless your issue is how to make a pattern, which will be way more challenging than learning how to construct with latex. The process is simple:
>clean your latex edges
>right side goes against wrong side
>tape the side of the edge that won't be glued (literally just scotch tape it so it doesn't fold under too hard or stretch when you attach it to the other piece)
>paint both connecting edges with rubber cement
>place edges together, right over wrong
>roll down with a breyer
>let dry, remove tape, done
>reinforce seams as needed

You know, after a long day in the costume you might want some relief. I think several of the cosplayers started out with a fetish suit and adapted it to fit, rather than wanting to make a statement of their availability.

Neck entry suits are in many ways more comfortable than those with full length zippers since zippers are not elastic and therefore tighten the suit unnecessarily when you move. The big snag is that neck entry suits take a lot more effort to get in and out of. So when you are in you want to stay in costume for as long as possible.

Not latex, but spandex suits and I specifically got them with crotch zippers so I wouldn't have to take off everything over the suit. The conventions I go to have lots of drinking, and some parties use those tyvek wristbands that are impossible to get off.

Absolutely incorrect. Video game characters I can see in latex. Superheroes? No way in Hell.

Latex doesn't breathe; wearing a catsuit is like wearing a full body rubber glove. All of the things that comic book superheroes do (running, jumping, climbing, fighting, etc) generates a lot of sweat, and they'd likely get heat exhaustion or heat stroke if they attempted their feats in latex.

Also, when tight-fitting latex tears, it splits wide open and shreds. Any amount of battle damage would ruin the suit. See Empowered for more details.

Furthermore, properly shined latex doesn't allow do to hide or remain hidden if there's any amount of light it can reflect. This is why it's bad for skulking characters like Catwoman or Black Widow.

Latex (especially catsuits) is really a fetish item. It's *meant* for sex...

For a realistic portrayal of Madame Viper, she was in The Wolverine and wore a faux leather green trenchcoat, no latex. And in the comic version, she wears body armor. Look at the pic on the website:

>>
>>8809440
Agreed. It's fetishy for certain. Skin tight, form fitting Latex is undeniably sexy. There's nothing innocent about it.
>>
>>8733337
Despite the fact she's cosplayed Snow White, Poison Ivy, Lara Croft, Harley Quinn, Silk Spectre II, Catwoman, Elexis Sinclaire, Jessica Rabbit, Supergirl, Trinity........yeah she's more of a cosplayer (although I admit she's still a fetish model) than the majority of the sluts posted here.

You really can't paint a latex suit because it's technically rubber, the only way it'll stick and move with the rest of the catsuit is if you paint the teal with liquid latex.

It'll look 100x better if it was hand cut latex applique though which will give it a vivid and consistent look, but that's my opinion on the subject.

Hope that helps.
