Need some more /cgl/-related reaction pictures. Dump them here, gulls!
I feel like this is going to be pretty accurate (except maybe not fully opm) what are your opinions? What will the 2016 con scene look like?
>Star Wars cosplayers
It's true. All of it.
Plenty of Kylo Rens and Reys incoming.
Anovos is also preparing to ship out Stormtrooper armor kits this month to thousands that preordered them. I'm in that group.
You thought Deadpools were bad before
Yep. Tons of OPM, Star Wars, and even more Deadpools. I already saw Undertale and Steven Universe cosplayers last year, but the number will probably keep growing.
I intend to attend a couple as Dragon Ball characters (Jaco, Vegeta, or Krillin, probably), and I'll be a volunteer at least one of those.
Can we have a Tumblr thread?
Post not only your blogs but also Tumblr-related things.
I'm sick of kink blogs not only reblogging but stealing pictures of people wearing lolita fashion.
Some claim to be into the fashion themselves, yet have no regard for the bad reputation they're creating for the fashion it's disgusting.
This blog stole the picture, sadly I don't know who she is but she definitively needs to be made aware.

Fuck Tumblr.
Can we have a kigu thread? I just bought my first today! Feel free to post yourself in your comfy kigu (yes, consider this an excuse to get into pajamas no matter how early it is for you).
>What's your opinion on Kigu versions of cosplay?
>Have you ever made your own kigu? How did it go?
>Could kigus work in Japanese fashion? For example, blending them into the currently non-existent hiki-Kei?

THE RIDE NEVER ENDS
I got a beginners metal casting kit last year in Ireland and I've been making some custom pendants for people with it. Right now I'm just making plaster molds and prying/carving the metal out of it. It's a lot of fun.

That one of yours? Got more? Looks awesome.
I was never good with small casts, but back when I was a bronze age junky, I did some blades.

never seen one before so lets have a thread to chat about cosplay contests
There are no cosplayers here, this board is for talking about dresses, hair to go with your dresses, or to blog.

i'm entering my first cosplay competition in a couple weeks and i'm really nervous!! so i'd love to hear from other gulls who have competed in the past.
it's at a super small con near my house so that makes me feel a little better about it, but if it goes well i'm thinking of working my way up to competitions at bigger cons.
I won a xbox one this year.
The competition was announced last minute and luckily I had a costume almost done that fit the rules.
It didn't need a skit, but then in the last minute we has to do something on stage for the judges.
I didn't really think that I would win, but the results were based on Internet votes (the contest was being streamed online) and I got around 40% of the votes or something.
If there's anything I can say to help people who plan on trying a competition is: don't act like you're the best, be humble and don't pressure yourself too much. The more you think about it the worse it will be if you end up not winning. Just learn to admire other people's hard work too and enjoy the time backstage.
I made a ton of friends that day, it was incredibly fun and everyone but one guy were talking to each other and sharing costume details. Very different from other competitions I tried where no one would talk to each other.
But I think the main difference was that this competition was at a game con and the others I went to were anime cons.. So it might explain a bit of the different behavior among the contestants.
Winter SacAnime in a couple of weeks, anyone else going?
Trying to find information on the New Year's Eve Costume Ball, but no luck so far.
HAHAHA have fun
>>8769846
See you there.
I'm just dumping a few pics to get things rolling
Do I just head to conventions in a costume?
I don't know anyone to go with, should I just show up by myself?
Do i need to create a costume from scratch or can I buy one online?
Is it an accepting community and will i quickly meet people who will help me understand it more?
You need to sacrifice your first-born on the night of a full moon at an orifice located due east from you. Only then you you truly become a cosplayer.
Just be yourself man.

>scratch or can I buy one online?
>Is it an accepting community and will i quickly meet people who will help me understand it more?
LOL. No.
saw this was on sale. anyone used it? i have heard mix reviews and wondering if it is a good pattern
I haven't used it, but I have heard it's not great for tall people.
The Yaya Han X JoAnn collaboration line Cosplay Fabrics is coming out in March. That huge sticker...
>>8800340
I feel like this might be cool (especially to get some variety in the pleather that joann offers) but i think there is a lot of potential for it to be overpriced. Ah well, coupons galore.

There's a Hunger Games thread, but we had one of these a while ago and it was a lot of fun.
Wicked, I guess, is kind of borderline because there IS a visual adaption, but anything book based counts! Suppose graphic novels would also be welcome.
Bonus points if it's not Harry Potter.
Oh that dress is cool though overall this is a bit meh.
Requesting any good cosplays of Good Omens!
no one guessed this from the Obscure Cosplay thread: Shallan from Stormlight Archives
>>8796427
Is this okay?
Seen some threads for other states, so here's an Ohio one. We have some conventions and a big Lolita comm so let's discuss some stuff. What conventions are you going to this year? Ohayocon is coming up this month. What is the comm up to?
I'm not going to Ohayocon but I am going to Zipcon
>>8791290
Yo. Reporting in from pilot territory. Ohayocon does not seem worth going to.
Where is there even a Lolita comm in Ohio?
>>8791360
They seem to be located mainly in the Akron/Cleveland area and Columbus.

My personal favorite lolita Youtuber is Princess Jessie-Kate; she has a popular video on her involvement with Milanoo but she really is just the most precious thing to me. Cute voice and cute attitude.

I also really like Acchirin. https://www.youtube.com/user/acchirin/

Somewhat-ish lol. Just thought I'd mention her along with Jnig; I don't like either of them but I didn't want people to be like "u forgot so-and-so".
Tall girls and Jfashion thread
for girls 5'7" and taller
Share your tips, tricks, where you get things for your height, and tall girl feels.
to get us started, here's some questions
>how tall are you
>what fashions do you wear
>where do you get your clothes (for both normalfag and jfashion wear)
>most helpful advice you can give to other tall girls

Off topic, but does anyone know the source dress on the left?
On topic, for me personally I never wear OTK socks. I always wear tights. OTKs give me too much gap and it ends up looking slutty even if the dress is an appropriate length. Sadly for me, since there's so many cute OTK prints that don't come in tights.
>height: 5'10"
>alternative (wanting to get into nanchatte and mori or maybe strega)
>thrift stores, yard sales, malls, and handmade (sometimes ebay/amazon)
>if a dress is a little shorter than you thought, don't be afraid to wear it with panty hose and a thin jacket/shaul that falls below your butt to make sure your dress doesn't fly up. Also if it bothers you enough, buying chunky boots a size bigger make your legs look thinner so while you're up there in the clouds, at least you look like a skinny model rather than the jolly green giant.
(I'm a size 9 but go for 10 for comfort or XL in asian sizes so I guess this is just my preference but hey, it pleases my eyes.)
