>tfw major post con depression
>>8845435
I don't think I've experienced post-con depression this badly until now. This year made up for how gloomy last year felt.
So what ribbons did you end up getting. I know some of my friends got close to 300. I was there mostly Saturday and wasn't trying very hard, so I got just a few. All the ones I got were from friends except for the lesser dog ribbon. I found that one on the ground on Sunday when I was picking up a friend for lunch.
what are some good anime character with good clothing that wouldn't be really seen as cosplay when your out some where?
like naoto from persona 4
or some of the characters from mekakucity actors.
this pic is what i plan to get. it looks like something you'd regularly wear

New help thread. Old one in autosage.
How well do fabric blends take rit dye? Like fabrics that are mostly natural fibers with 10-20% synthetic blended in.
>>8836716
Pretty good. The higher the percentage of cotton the better, but I've had lower grade take the dye okay. Like 60% cotton if I remember correctly.
Any tips on retying an Arda Chibi? I've been trying and having a really hard time dealing with the wig fit. It doesn't feel too small but it definitely feels tight around my forehead and hairline and I don't know why that is.

Can we get a /buff men in humorously contrasting cosplay/ thread please?
Does anyone use snapchat? I thought it'd be a good way to share costume progress/con experiences/new hauls.
snapchats only last for up to 10 seconds and stories only last for 24 hours though. using instagram, tumblr, or another way to share photos is much more effective.
>>8857126
Snapchat is more casual though, compared to the careful composition that goes into photos posted on Instagram and tumblr. It puts less pressure on how much attention your pics will receive, and I feel like it's more personal.
>>8857132
snapchat is also more personal though. from my experience, people don't like to give out their snapchats (unless their patreon patrons paid for it) even if people can only view their story.
it could have potential to pick up a little pace as a way to share con experiences but insta and tumblr will trump it for costume progress, ootd, and haul pictures.
Lolita/J-Fashion mall finds:
Don't do this...any of this. Just...no
M-maybe this is for menhera?
Not even going to lie; I'm so thirsty for a local source of loliable things I'd buy this in a heartbeat. K-kill me.
Anyone else here wear costume items to a convention, not for attention but moreso to get into the spirit of the con?
When reading cgl threads it feels there are two types of cosplayers (good and shit). While mostly true, do you think there is a third group?
I think there is another group of individuals who go to a con that dress up not necessarily to show off and gain attention but mainly to get in the spirit of the con and wear something a little bit different.
You see these people all the time that wear a single piece of a costume (like a simon jacket)...

I think that woman has a dick.
I have a lot of anxiety about crowds, but it seems to lessen in costume or lolita, so I've started doing this on Sunday of conventions. (Or Friday, too, at really small cons where things don't start til Friday evening.) I'll wear just a wig and a t-shirt related to the character, or something bought and easy to put on, or accurate cosplay of more normie clothes. It helps me feel less anxious, but I don't have to stop and fix things and no one takes my picture, so I can just wander dealers' halls or ask for photos myself.
Only got shit for it once...

Good taste. Karma is a bitch, and shulkbro got what he deserved.
Just unlimited kek works.
Isn't this one of the Ryan Kopf conventions?
>>8856004
Unfortunately. This either means he's a dumbass and double booked or that he admitted that midwest doesn't need the dealer's hall and is going to move back into the hotel only.
Either way this is hilarious.
>>8856004
Yeah, it's a Kopf-con.
Aw man. I know people usually go to ACen and AMW who've gone to Exxotica before, but to have it on the same weekend and con space is lulzy.
Anyone have those older pictures of that couple that did Rin/Kakashi a while back? (boob in face picture(s)

Does anyone consider you a weirdo because you wear lolita/cosplay?

Yes of course! But do I care for the opinions of uncultured swines?
Probably not.

Is anyone else getting the add for 'Hello Bones Jones'?
for some reason I decided to visit fa and it was horrible. cleanse me gulls
So is Con-nichiwa finally dead? I see that Sabo is getting more announcements but it seems like nothing has come out of Con-Nichiwa at all.
>>8854241
They'll probably keep the same layout, cafes, and guests from last year. Sabo is the big money maker.
>>8854241
Sabo just announced Ladybeard so I guess that is were all the money is going.
didn't they announce some cosplayer from Washington? It came up in my feed as an ad today but I'm not sure how old that is (plus I don't exactly recognize their work)
what are some of your favorite cosplay Instagrams? preferably ones that aren't lots of costests
Lady_Licorice posts a lot of pics of her sewing progress and almost no costests. She's currently making a Sakizou costume and it looks amazing.
>>8853277
yeah I'm actually a big fan of her work. her dresses are beautiful.
ettellecos and december_wynn are actual cosplay goals.
cifera and japespr1te are some of my favorites
Working on a bigger cosplay and I'd love some inspiration.
Everything from mascot costumes, mecha-cosplays, Godzilla monsters, show me your favourites!
I've always wondered what sort of fabrics were best to skin these larger cosplays.
Some of my favs
