Last thread went pretty well.
>post your favorite original character cosplay
>post your own of character
>post your og character cosplay
>post cosplays of popular original designs for existing characters. (not crossovers)
>characters from video games with customization options also accepted.
The last thread was cool, I'll share this time.
Part of me wishes my OCs were popular enough to inspire more terrible faun make-up on tumblr. That's when I'll know I've made it.
I finished another one of my idol witch characters. She was originally going to have green colors but that didn't make much sense with the bat wings. Shy personality offstage, flirty on stage
Im thinking the next girl would be moon/cloud themed. a girl who loves to sleep
Only four days away. Who here is going?
Do you think there will be less people after the price bump for the tickets?
Went a year ago and this was literally the shittiest con I've ever been to
>>8808091
What didn't you like?
The panels were pretty shit. Specially the ones where people were acting as the characters.
Name an anime convention that *wasn't* shitty its second year.
protip: You can't
I'm going to be participating in my first lolita fashion show and I'd really appreciate a photo dump full of cute poses, lolita or other J-fashion. Bonus for twinning.
>>8808436
I'm confused. What did I do?
I think lolitas need help with posing in general. I think this will be a helpful thread.
>>8808436
Shut up, this thread is fine.
I like this pose, but I wish she'd made the twist of her midsection/hips a little less extreme,
Starting off with a question;
what does /cgl/ think of The sushi times? Love it, hate it?
>>8740881
I've always found it rather...annoying...not sure why. But I must admit most articles are well written.
>>8740881
I like it, though the typos are annoying.
who else is going to the summer tales teaparty?
I didn't see one in the catalog.
Any fun plans, cosplay lineups, good stories to share?
Two years ago when they announced the theme as Kaiju vs Mecha at closing ceremonies I remember the entire place exploded in excitement and last year when they announced the theme as "field day" you could hear literal crickets chirping and t.b.h I still laugh about that.
>>8824559
I was in closing and I didn't understand what they were announcing (why would you call it "field day" and not just "sports"?) I got a lot more interested after the con when I realized what they were talking about. My friends were planning a big haikyuu group anyway so I'm excited.
So...this will premier on the first day of Katsucon, and only a couple months before con season.
Are you guys prepared for the increased influx of meme-spouting idiots clogging up the halls, as they try acting in-character and simply being retarded the entire weekend? How long do you think it will last?
Also post Deadpool horror stories and pics of Deadpools being idiots if you have any.
How bad can it be?
>>8819047
Really bad.
One year I had a Deadpool cosplay come and grope my friend. She was pretty upset about it and I ended having to get him to leave even though he wanted a picture with her. He kept saying it was for the pose. Probably should have asked first before touching.
Is this con worth going to? I haven't been in a few years so I haven't experienced the new location. Anyone here planning on attending?
There's already an a-kon thread.
Lookalikes
idk what you were going for. She doesn't look like Gothel at all.
>>8828551
lol nice selfpost morgana
Hey there seagulls. I'm not to well versed with how smaller cons tend to operate, but I'm concerned about touhoucon 2016. There's no listed dates or anything indicating that it's in the works. Hell, all their official outlets haven't been active since around September. Is this par for the course for small cons, or is it likely that we won't be seeing touhoucon again?
After the hotel thing, Bryan's been ignoring everyone.
There's probably not enough funds for next year, they didn't even make it in the clear this year apparently.
>>8819519
Hotel thing? Mind elaborating?
>>8819561
From what I remember, they overestimated attendance and other things and I think couldn't pay the hotel back in full, hotel started charging people randomly, and a big mess happened.
I've also heard rumors that there's a lawsuit involved now, against the hotel if I remember right, and that's why they got so quiet. So it's hard to tell what's really going on here now. Personally I was wouldn't call Touhoucon totally dead yet but 2016 isn't gonna happen. Maybe back for 2017. I'm still sad about it though, it had issues but was probably the best time I think I'll ever have at a con. Was so nice to have fun with a hotel full of other Touhous and people like ARM.
Why don't they ever work in the USA, gulls? Even in a place like Detroit where you can pay rent with Monopoly dollars they can't bang out enough to keep the doors open.
What would you do differently?
>>8808206
>they
who?
>>8808206
Location, being weeb bait and unattractive and non similar girls.
>>8808213
>Location
As in bad foot traffic or costly rent?
>weeb bait
Fair enough, but you would think that gimmick would get people in the door.
>unattractive and non similar girls
probably the biggest offender. its surprising to think that there arent plenty of cute girls who would love to work part-time at one.
How was your scorching hot Christmas anons?
fuck off op we had a good break without you
The fuck is wrong with that solar dude in QLD?
He's freaked out a few girls with his obsessive behaviour and stalking.
>>8785625
Yeah, saw a post about it pop up on my feed. The number of people he's supposedly harassed is pretty staggering.
All of the horrible things you can find on etsy.
>>8820071
>not using the catalog
This whole store is a goldmine.
"Do Gothic Lolitas Just Wanna Have Fun? An Examination of the Goth-Loli Style Tribes in Hong Kong and Tokyo" by Anne Peirson-Smith
ITT: Solid color dresses/skirts with beautiful details. All Jfashions are welcome
So ihr Seemöven.
Who'll be there? What are your plans?
Anyone heard of the artist alley drama?
>still mad that I can't go this year
The artist alley drama? You mean like those who where selected are either close to the conheads or friends of friends? Not that it would be new...
At least this time they supposedly chose 50/50. Like 50% were chosen by the organizers based on skill, FB likes and connections probably and the other half was drawn.
Still I would have loved to see the draw like they did for the FBM (minus weird cosplay chick thx), otherwise it's quite hard to see if they really did have any drawing at all.
I'm not too mad I didn't make it in, I kinda felt it, but I'm going to be there.
Any gull up for the Putumayo TeaParty? Any infos on that? I can't get myself to buy a ticket...
>>8821577
I will be at the party. I bought the tickets blindly hoping they don't fuck up (I somehow trust the Dokomi-Staff).
I hope they'll release more info soon but no matter of the program itself the location will be nice and I'm looking forward to meet so many old friends again.
