Old one's about to die, so here's the new.

Who else is really tired of sewing?
>>9023954
Meeeeeeeee
Ballgowns are the worst. Damn my love of fluffy things.
Yo, when's Third Strike?
>>9024194
After second strike retard
>>9023954
I haven't even started on my own cosplays... been to busy working on friends.
*plays emo songs gently in the background*
>>9024208
Who'd be dumb enough to get a first strike in the first place
>>9024287
Why wouldn't you finish yours first before theirs?
>>9024325
money & time
i'll probably end up wearing an old cosplay at this point
>>9024338
I hope they're at least paying you
>>9024348
they are
shit on my end got tight from unexpected costs and income falling through
not being able to compete with art/sewing commission due to 'interesting' customer base wanting walmart prices, and not having money to put down on AA tables. i'm kinda outa ideas
you come up with something, i'm all ears
>>9024361
Budget better
Suck dicks
Or worry about yourself only
I'm lucky that I only gotta worry about one cosplay. Props to you for trying to get by with your passion. I'm not good enough to accept commissions. If you're in 210 I'd be willing to help with manual labor.
>>9024388
>>9024388
>Budget better
Suck dicks
20 dolla i maka holla! suki suki wrong time!
i'm actually very good with budgeting. it's the reason i'm not following the herd on tumbutt with "omg medical bills am gonna b homeless any monay halp" posts and then spending on everything but basic living expenses
the offer to assist with manual labor is appreciated, but i'm several hours away. desu being able to check this thread is helping with breaks and preventing burn out, so thanks
>>9024422
Glad to help anyway I can. I've been having insomnia recently, so some human interaction is nice. What are you working on anyway?
>>9024436
causing trouble....
finishing up a toriel? working on the sleeves at the moment, ironing out the wrinkles before cutting. then attaching all the pieces together. there's a lining layer so the seams don't rub against skin. it's actually a really quick and simple outfit i've just been busy with medical and school dramalam
i'll post her up in the work thread if i get her done tonight/morning?
then i'm gonna start working on boob holsters for a prom dress. I'm gonna actually, not sarcastic, enjoy the hell out of that cause it's fun working with thin fabrics and figuring out the best way to hem or not stretch the shit and fuck it up. keep getting better at each it dress i work on
newpaper is best friend
>>9024468
I look forward to seeing the toriel. Is that one for your friend?
Don't get in too much trouble. [spoiler]We need /cgl/ at akon[/spoiler]
You sound like you should totally teach me to sow. I usually just modify clothes from goodwill/thrift stores for my needs. I absolutely don't sow unless I have to.
Newspaper for sleep? It would probably keep me awake actually.
>>9024476
Fucked up my spoiler. I should probably take that as a sign to go to sleep
>>9024479
You didn't fuck it up, cgl just doesn't have spoilers.
>>9024487
Oh no shit? I didn't know that.
>>9024487
this
>>9024479
for friend with the boobs for it. I own no tits to speak of
i help out in the wip/help threads every so often but i don't get the impression ppl are that interested in wanting to know why ironing, pinning, sizing, and so on are so important. I always see a ton of bitching about broadcloth and really the stigma is just because it's cheap and cheap inexperienced ppl go for it first. skill proves the stuff isn't as bad as it's reputation
moding is a good place to start. if you find something that fits god damned perfect you better rip out all the seams and get an exact copy of the pattern, save yourself from starting over from scratch on future cosplay
newspaper to sew the seam of difficult fabrics. you pin the layers together with that on the outside and it prevents the sewing machine from pulling or warping it, so no weird kinking/rolling on seams or hems. i love it because it's so damn cheap and handy
i can ramble for hours about making things desu, like wrangling in large breasts, how to handle strapless stuff, why lining is important and how to pick fabric, making ruffles without a foot, applique and how ppl always fuck it up, removing paint/blood and repairs
shit i'm already rambling, i should drag that shit back to the help thread
>>9024522
Maybe not in the mass for toriel, but I'm sure you have wonderful tits.
Huh never thought about making patterns like that. It seems so obvious.
Yeah, I definitely need to learn more about sowing. I've handled strapless before, but never hand made ruffles and any applique I've done is either ironed or glued on.
Fuck I feel inadequate.
>>9024569
>Sowing
Like how to spell it maybe?
>>9024762
That's probably a good start
Is anyone surprised? she can't seem to commit to anything.
>>9025038
Kek. Figured as much when she posted she wasn't going to get anything new done in time
>>9025038
Thank god. If they invite cosplay guests they better be actually talented and preferably local
>>9025188
Not as far as I know. I only know bc some of my weebier acquaintances keep liking her shit so it shows up on my fb feed
Yo seagullz
This is my 1st A-Kon. What should I expect? Are there any good panels/workshops this year?
>>9025429
only cgl panels/booths are any good
a new development on Bitsy
>>9025852
What? She fucked up his photo, put his mark on it and is now trying to sell it? Did I get that right?
>>9025852
This is a shit situation, but... Are those her real teeth? She looks like she has goddamn dental implants.
>>9025038
Of course she had to cancel due to health issues. She spent all her medical bill money on cosplay.
>>9025886
It looks like this person took a picture of her, gave her permission to edit it (I...think her fucked up her own edit and so the photog asked his watermark not be put on it) and now she's selling prints of this photo even though she has no permission from the photographer to sell it.
>>9025891
No, its a mouthpiece. Forgot where she mentioned it, but its the same kind that the girls on toddlers in tiaras wear.
>>9025985
Yep, that's what he described in the comments as well. Though I don't understand why he didn't just message her first instead of posting it on his page.
>>9026023
>Though I don't understand why he didn't just message her first instead of posting it on his page.
Probably blocked and/or ignoring him. Let's maybe move this drama over to the farm instead of derailing and deleting the thread so early.
>>9025429
It's a party con. Like Dragoncon but with teenage weeaboos instead of middle aged neckbeards
How bad do you think registration will be? It's a week away from the con and I'm so anxious about it. I wanna get to Octopimp's panel at 1 pm and trying to get my badge and get in line to get a seat is going to be a nightmare if registration isn't quick.
>>9026433
It was super quick last year with the new system compared to the hours of waiting it used to be. I wouldn't worry about it.
>>9026588
That's definitely not how I remember it.
>>9026598
Really? How long did the wait end up being for you?
>>9026617
I waited E X A C T L Y one hour year. It's all one line now. I got in at 8:04am and left the room, badge in hand at 9:04am. I got "lucky" enough to volunteer this year and cannot wait to put up with bullshit congoers. Ready to be out of mind,guys.
>>9026715
Maybe the time is why. I was in line with my sister on Saturday afternoon so she could get a one-day, and it took maybe 30-40 minutes. Compared to the two-hour waits from previous years, I'd say it was pretty fast.
>>9026889
I remember being in line for about 4 the first time they had A-kon at the Anatole, backed up all the way from one end of the hotel to the next and it was
> crawlinginmyskin.jpeg
>>9026897
Yup, 4 hours. Timed it. And all Because they put the damn registration tables in the back of the artists alley/dealers room and it was a huge clusterfuck. I was stuck in line next to a legitimately autistic young man who talked in monotone at high volume, shouted the names of characters who walked by and wanted to tell me all about his "oc" that he was dressed as (he was wearing jeans and a white t-shirt). I'm a patient person and I know he wasn't doing it on purpose, but damn... Worst line ever.
Will be there as a joke big boss cosplay at some point.
figured hawaiian shirt, eyepatch, dumb summer hat, cigar, paper taped to back of shirt saying "The boss is out". Just something to fuck around with.
If that sounds too horrible, I'll have to come up with something cheap in 5 days
In case anyone didn't know registration was moved to the atrium. Where the food court was last year.
>>9027460
they have to seriously up the quality and counterfeit measures first.
PAX south (and presumably prime) did something really interesting. Their counterfeit measure was just a symbol that lights up under black light. That would be a lot harder to copy for the average joe.
>>9027460
people will pay those extra $$ to get their badge shipped to them...
Who else will be in AA? This is my first time tabling. Thankfully AA stuff is finished, just picking up my last few prints on Tuesday and then doubling down on the finishing pieces for coords.
>>9027460
i have to pick up 5 badges
>>9027271
>your cosplay is bad and you should feel bad
>>9027271
>something cheap in 5 days
so, assuming you've got brown hair and a beard since you were cosplaying big boss
If you have a suit, Jigen from Lupin.
If you're well built, Kenshiro (with a beard) from FotNS
If your hair is darker, you can always walk around in a suit with an empty bottle of jack and call yourself Tony Stark
>>9026224
but... but... how will i meet my husbando then? *clings to m'lady body pillow*
>>9028560
well if you're into underaged guys...
Guidebook is up.
>>9028649
No! Only a 30 something neckbear will do!
>>9028687
Wish the photoshoots were on here, unless they are and I can't find them.
>>9029116
>neckbear
>attractive
>>9029182
don't judge my cuddly neckbear
>>9029182
there were some neckbeard gulls last year...
hope they show up again...
>>9029158
Apparently the guidebook is very much in progress as well. It'll probably improve in the next few days. I've already had a few issues fixed.
>>9023921
so are we gonna meet up and get wasted or what?
I was looking through the guidebook and I noticed photo spaces. i'm a real noob at all this so forgive me. Are these just booths that are set up and you pay and they take a pic?
>>9027271
>come up with something cheap
This is all you need, chum.

>>9030400
there was talk of two different meets in the last thread and then apparently it went off site to the line app or something and talk died.
Only a few days left before Akon! What's everyone going as?
> Thursday: Normie, as I'll likely be just getting my badge/checking out the area.
> Friday: Casual Rider from Fate Zero
> Saturday: Brolaf from League of Legends
> Sunday: Normie because I'll probably dodge and spend the day in Dallas before going home.

>>9031941
The line group got raided last week, don't think another one has been created. So meetups should probably be planned here.
What are you guys do for parking (esp if you're not at a hotel)? I'm driving there and back on either Saturday or Friday but realize I haven't even thought about where to park.
>>9032844
Park at Medieval Times or some residential street. Or at the River park and you can hoof it.
>>9032844
Get there super early and pay 30$ for the parking close to the hotel. Can't walk far with everything I buy
>>9032844
I'm super pissed off because the hotel that I booked (about a mile from the convention) and they don't even have enough fucking parking spaced for the number of rooms that they have in the damn building. Plus, it's not helping my case that I didn't book it for thursday night because I was trying to save a little money and I also only live about half an hour away. Most, if not all of the spots will probably be gone by the time I get there. I'll either have to lurk until someone tries to go to Denny's or bite the bullet.
>>9033019
I thought a ton of people got towed last year because of stuff like that?
>>9033075
How early is super early?
>>9030400
Sorry, Fanime was stupid busy.
How does 9:00pm Friday at the Gossip Bar or the furniture around it sound? That's around where we met last year, iirc.
Has anyone opened a new LINE group for people attending A-Kon? is only a few days away and it would be nice to see if we could meet-up and stuff.
>>9033114
If it's raining that area is going to be crazy. Does anyone know of anything more secluded?
>>9032844
I've been using the park-and-ride station down the street then walking. If it rains I'll just call an Uber to take me the rest of the way from the station to the hotel.
>>9033409
Message @nyaruchu if you want to be added since we had issues with raiders last group. Not gonna chance putting up the link/QR code
>>9033093
They did, so be really careful where you park. Many came out late (from the dances, cosplay show, etc) to go to their cars to leave, like around 3am and lol, the cars were gone.
I think this will be the last convention I go to before I jump into the oh so pleasant sounding world of cosplay. Plan to start with simple "outfit-based" cosplays and then in the future work on the elaborate designs for fantasy/sci-fi characters, or just ones with unusual clothes in general. Figure it'll be an enjoyable learning experience when I get to it.
That being said, would be cool to go to a meetup and chill; see what kind of stuff you folk have worked on for the convention.
So a-kon tumblr doesn't even know if there's plans to have photoshoots on guidebook. Greeeeat. Normally I guess I'd be fine but considering so many locations are closed off this year I'm gonna struggle to find anything. I guess I could write them all down. There's facebook, of course, but I've had trouble getting facebook to load w the poor signal there is at cons before. I probably sound really entitled right now but... Whatever I'm angry.
>>9033912
I think the only area closed off is the outside lawn area since it's under construction. I haven't heard of anywhere else being closed off.
>>9033917
It's quite a large area though and it held a majority of shoots last year. I think I've only ever been to one shoot outside of the sculpture garden area.
>>9033912
The Guidebook was basically only released because people kept getting pissy about it not being out. I can't believe they're procrastinating this hard, though. There's a Google doc with the photoshoot/fandom meet-ups (highlighted in grey), though. I have that saved to my home screen right now.
For anyone who hasn't seen the doc yet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1diT2ROBVRBwba-Wkm1MKaH8ZQFoV1c1slEBc175UGGA/edit#gid=1918849762
anybody else working on last minute cosplays?
>>9034332
I had to sew my friends Lisa Lisa cosplay and now I'm working on my Avdol but man I'm running out of time and my contacts aren't here yet so I may have to be known as Hipster Avdol because of my glasses sadly.
>>9033719
I heard mixed things about parking at Market Center. Did people get towed for parking there?
>>9033912
Definitely take screen shots or write down your shoot times and locations just in case
>>9033019
So no fear of getting towed if I park at River Park? 20 minutes isn't anything.
>>9033091
Are they not doing a shuttle to the hotel?
Anyone from El Paso want to do a meet up? Or anyone in general. I wanna meet some new friends at this convention.
>>9035667
Trying to get people for meet up's. No one has replied to one yet.
>>9035726
Update: 7 a.m. and we aren't even allowed to get in fucking line yet.
>>9036045
Are you just hovering around?
How many people are there?
So no one wants to meet up then. Wanna do a OPM meet up.
great woke up with a massive zit, hopefully the line smells better this time
Also I'm still really worried about how crowded it'll be cuz no one can go outside
Day 0, Who's here/ Who's hype?
on a second note, anyone also going to Fan expo Dallas down the way back and forth?
>>9036228
On my way later, but I doubt I will be there in time to stop by the con. Coming over from Austin.
So someone posted a video showing the doors and such closed off. Just so everyone can see before arriving.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xp7yxulnMTw
>>9036252
Oh my god I haven't set foot in Dallas yet and I'm already dreading this con. A-kon GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER ALREADY GODDAMN
I have an extra badge, if anyone wants it. I can sell it for $35 instead of the $70. Just email me.
Only meetup I've seen anyone set up is Friday 9 pm at Gossip Bar.
Anyone trying to lead anymore besides that one?
Seriously, just post when and where and people will probably show up
>>9036314
That was mine, but someone said it'd be too crowded. But with the outsides being blocked, I feel like everywhere will be crowded. If someone has ideas of a better location be my guest.
Hey just a heads up, be careful when going out, some nasty thunderstorms are happening all weekend until Sunday
Stay safe seagulls!
>>9036352
thans for the warning, i thought the rain was gonna be over after today but I guess not
>>9036352
reeeeally wishing i had just forked up the extra cash to stay at the con hotel right now
>>9036452
Sometimes it's actually worth it to pay for convenience.
>>9036261
It begins. The great shitstorm every year.
>>9036228
Here with my fiance. Our first time showing up early on Day 0; no lines!!
With nothing going on tonight I'm truly interested in, I think I'll catch Game 1 of the NBA Finals instead.
Get off 4chan, Fiance.
Also. Suckers. #noline #plentifulparking

I guess I'm just a little disgruntled because we paid $73.75 I think, after the service fees, and they can't fucking hand me a stack of newspapers and a shirt that they should have had days ago.
I want to meet some new friends here. Anyone wanna meet up?
what is there to do on day zero beside AA
>>9036872
We'll be at media bar for beers and apps in a little bit. We're casual mode but don't be afraid to say hey.
>>9036872
Yes. Are you weird or pretty chill?
>>9036902
yes
>>9036909
Well were at media bar watching the game. Come watch and go warriors!!
>>9036902
I'm pretty chill. My bro is pretty chill. My other friends can be weird but only to new people. Once they relax they can be chill.
>>9036889
Might take you guys up on that. I'm not a local so it would be nice to meet some new people.
>>9036916
Word we're not local either. We're watching the game in the lounge area. I'm in a blue warriors shirt and my fiance is wearing a red charmander shirt
>>9036919
Walked by and didn't see you guys there. I'm in the lounge myself chilling out.
>>9036936
Lounge area of media bar and grill? I've been here the whole time. My fiance ran off but I'm sure she'll be back (she's not a sports fan). I'm facing the big tv in a blue shirt.
>>9036942
Ah OK. Just spotted you.
>>9036942
Just tried to walk in. They said that we needed to purchase something to sit inside. ;—;

No worries. We'll be casual rider from Fate Zero and sailor moon tomorrow. Come say hey.
Where can I sign up for cosplay contests? It is it too late?

Cool. Ill definitely say hi. If I can't find you I'll message you on here.

Basically message you here to discuss a meeting location.
Come to swap meet if you real
Anyone go to the masquerade? Was wondering how thats going.

hey, does anyone know any good free places to park? can't pay $20 for parking every single day
Boarding my plane now, be there in a couple of hours.
I'll be at A-10 all weekend if anyone wants to drop by. I'm attending alone so any company would be nice. I give seagull discounts.
>>9036352
I'm still content with AirBnB'ing an apartment for the weekend, not terribly far from the convention so hopefully when we go and leave it isn't horrendously pouring.
Anyone here making their way from Houston or that general area towards Dallas; got any word on how bad it is along that way?
>>9036318
might have to be somewhere outside of the hotel or some shit, with the outside closed everywhere will probably be crowded
>>9037166
I drove up from Houston today and it was pretty bad (driving 45 in a 75) at some points, but was never "shoot, we should turn around" mode. Just be careful along the way and plan for the 3 hour drive to take about 4 and you'll be ok.
>>9037100
Heard the music was pure shit once again. Ballroom dance music? What a farce.

Why does every masquerade ever fuck that up.

Anyone die this year yet???
>>9037552
Not yet, there's still time though.
wow, the badges only being paper with no form of protection is absolute shit. And they're on heat sensitive paper so you're fucked again. Someone tired to laminate theirs and it turned mostly black. They're not going to replace badges that get wet or torn or fucked up. Seriously? I know they did this to cut down on the lines but this is not a better option.
>>9037546
>whats is ctrl-f
Well, isn't that just too bad.
>>9037593
Whaaaat? No lanyards or anything?
>>9037605
Lanyards come in the orange bag you get after you get your badge.
The females at this con do a good job if not looking good at all. Not a single one above a 5.

What's the next best con to go to in Texas???
>>9037784
Someone report this guy to security please.
Fucking shower people.
>>9037784
I wouldn't do that. There was a lot of security the other day talking about a couple of different guys taking upskirts and they plan on doing a big arrest on them out of nowhere, wouldn't risk it. Also this place is filled with nice cameras to keep watch.
>>9037818
Security just had to watch for a sweaty guy with a camera on a stick trying to take upskirts.
>>9037829
Can't wait to see you being led out in handcuffs faggot. Will take pics too.
might drive up to Dallas. How is the weather now???
>>9037847
Actually it's only legal on public property, in the hotel it's their rules so it'll come down to whether the Anatole is ok with it or not.
>>9037847
>>9037848
to add to what that guy said and since my other post got eaten: it's not legal at a private paid event- they can throw your ass out at anytime for anything (that's why they can run you out for dresscode violations and other minor things) so if con security sees you doing it you will be escorted out or handed over to the cops of you start shit
fuck at least read up on these jackass things you want to do first before thinking it's ok ffs
Meet up at same place as last year Idk what time yet being a lazy shit as usual.

Cool. I'll stop by after going to the rave for a little.
First time I've been, does it always smell this bad? I don't know what it is, but lots of body odor.
>>9037146
Entirely unsure how, but I manged to lose my sense of direction and mistook a booth on the opposite side of the room for yours... Had to leave for the time being, but I'll be sure to stop by when I get back, or tomorrow for sure.
I've been here too much....When I get a pic taken, in the back of my head I always worry if they're gonna post me on cgl or to just make fun of me.
>>9038122
Who are you going as today, or would it make it all to easy to spot you in the crowds? Look at it like this: It's possible that they would make fun of you only because they're envious of your cosplay. No time to worry about petty crap, have fun with this stuff! That's how I'd be if I did cosplay at least.
>>9037887
Def for adult swim, but isnt anime on Saturday? Im a cord cutter
why are the panel rooms so small?
I don't want to sit in line for 1+ hours just to get in one.
The ticket thing is stupid too because they give out more than the room can handle.
Anyone else having issues getting into the panels?

Hey here comes the rain again perhaps; that was a rather sudden bolt of thunder
>>9038554
Wait what.
Anyone going to the GWBC/Gunplay panel?
>>9024194
Lol hi Radio
How was the rave last night?
anyone gonna be at the fire emblem photoshoot?
Say, do you need a badge to walk around AA? It's been so long since I've gone to Akon.
>>9038855
Yes.
I didn't consider that I'd need this but I'm doing Ani-Idol and I'd really like a scarf. Like any combination of blue, green, purple, etc. would work. Just reply and tell me when and where to meet you and I'll borrow it from you. I need it for a visual aid.
Not sure if just stupid or if it's not on the guidebook, but will there be a lolita meet up since it's ILD? Obviously there's the fashion show and a couple of panels but I'd like to meet some new people since I wasn't here yesterday.
>>9038901
Sucks to be you, staff put the most important lolita stuff yesterday because they're retarded as per usual
>>9038906
Womp. Well, I meant just kind of an informal meetup, if anyone knew of anything going on. I'll just hang out with my friends and post here if we find something cool to do, I guess.
Where the fuck is the swap meet? I don't see the room on the map.
>>9038958
I /think/ it's in the Veranda Club on the second floor in one of those rooms.
guys, when is or was the cyanide and happinnes panel?
>>9038975
Soon fellow stalker
>>9038975
They're passing out tickets for it now
>>9038901
Here's the schedule of lolita stuff
Ty for those who came by. The ladies who showed up were amazing and I loved talking about makeup with you girls. Gonna be partying again at 1030 in 957 in the main hotel.
To whoever did this thanks. Oh and if any ita's wanna make me pretty, I would love some make up put on.
>>9039090

>>9039094
It's poops. Help spread the poops.
>>9039033
Does anyone if the "How to be Kawaii and not Broke" will be worth going to? I'm thinking of going but undecided as the time sucks.
>>9039033
Thank you, anon!
>yesterday was antarctica
>decided to wear pants and long shirt
>a-kon
>suffering
>>9038803
Its was OK. The line dancing was fun.
>>9039033
Ew.
So no lolita meetup...?
>>9038197
He's the cosplay world's BIGGEST asshole. What do you expect. And Ive heard his girlfriend is a racist. So I try to stay as far away from them as possible.
How is the cosplay this year, anything neat? Could anyone post some pictures? I'm stuck at home with nothing going on.
Why do you guys work so hard on your cosplay and then not put any makeup on? I swear like 80% of the girls I see cosplaying do this.
>first convention as a normie (for the most part)
>got normie friend who's been watching anime to come
>he got bored and doesn't want to come back
>car towed
So far, my first anime convention hasn't been good to me.
I don't want to waste my weekend pass though so thinking about heading back later tonight and tomorrow alone.
Anything good that might warrant a return?
Hi from /sp/.
If anyone lost two boxes of MTG cards in the game room I've got em, give me a decent description and I'll meet you to return them
>>9039083
You guys still doing the room thing?
Where the heck are the video rooms??
>>9039457
Yes at 1030 pm. Come watch TV with us and drink.
>>9039478
Cool. Do I need to bring anything?
>>9039484
Yourself :)
And tits.
>>9039498
Are y'all cool? Tried to get into hentai panel but dat line tho.
>>9039275
Every panel room is stuffed liked crazy. I couldn't get into to anything since I don't wanna sit in line forever.
Lots of body odor too. The game rooms is pretty sick though and the crowd gets hype a lot.
San Japan is definitely the better con to go to though.
>>9039512
This. Would like to know. I've met a handful of 4channers at meetups and there's a bad record.
I don't want to be uncomfortable the whole time.
Any hotties @ the yaoi panel
>>9039514
You seem iight. You down to go hang in the board game room? My fiance and I are normal mode right now. I bet you'd be able to ID us easily there.
>order with ubereats
>order a lo mein
>get vegetables
Fuck you a-kon and your terrible not near anything not shit fucking location
>>9039413
>My first con
That's where most people fuck up. Akon is one of the worst cons to go to if you want a good first con experience. It's like barely playing a game for the first time but instead of doing tutorials you went to the next to last boss. Starting with smaller cons like Afest and SJ are definitely the way to go. Besides, Akon is total shit unless you actually have friends.
>>9039547
Or a con experience at all
It's like a clusterfuck of everything wrong
Where else would you find panels about racism and slavey
