Just wanted to share the cosplays I completed last year

May 17-19, 2024Are you going for the whole weekend?What are you cosplaying?Is your cosplay done or are you con crunching?Are you hosting a panel or working a booth?Going to the rave?Favorite part of the con?Any other activities you’re looking forward to?
>>10911933>>109119344chan now has a little blinking favicon (the little icon for the website on the tab or window) of an exclamation point in the middle of the four leafs. I've never seen this before, neat. Wonder if it also has a sound.
>>10911910Lol there’s like 30k+ people at Acen vs. maybe a dozen loud discord drama mongers shitting up every Midwest thread on a dead board. You aren’t going to run into these people at the actual con unless you’re seeking them out
>>10911910K, enjoy your boring gay corpo event (which at least a couple of these goobers are attending anyway)
>>10911969MoistCr1TiKaL, you're at C2E2?
>>10911971Plz come to our Charlie meetup at ColossalCon, sir. Last year's was a great success, sir.
last one hit bump limit
>>10911886God I hope so. I just googled him to check whether what they just said was even true and all but like two things that immediately came up were so obviously fetish content. I worry about that anon's ability to protect themselves if they aren't trolling.
>>10911814>"kinda cool"The very first image that appears upon googling him is this, complete with comments about sissy and infantilization kinks. I won't even disgrace my computer with downloading it nor your eyes by forcing you all to see it, but here's the link https://www.flickr.com/photos/30788655@N08/50113702977
>order from meta>plus plus for my big chesticled hamplanet ass>they send the wrong colorway in size 1>forget the KC I ordered too because fuck you that's why go on, laugh at me.
>>10911970 Oof, right when their English customer support is closed too. Good luck
>>10911972I sent them an email in english. Guess I will try to get a refund on paypal if they ghost me. I guess this is the questions thread so my question is do I kill myself or try to sell this dress with my literal 0 karma lacemarket account. I dont even have a FB account. I'm fucked.
I lost my nail inspo folder on my old pc so I'm starting with a mini dump in hopes of other anons dumping as well :)
cute thread, I'll bump
>>10906818I've done it a few times but they're pretty sloppy. Look okay from far away though.
>>10911899You color matched that grey perfectly and I think the cross looks really nice
Lolita aprons: practical, decorative, or costumey?
How come they’re never as cute as JP idols?
omg mizzys back
>>10911079Yeah yeah we get it pedo cosplayer. Never been on stage so not an idol
Anyone tune in to dream fusion’s live?
Yeah. They’re amazing and I love them and everyone who performed
>>10911931>>10911935make it any less obvious dream fusion, learn how to use 4chan
Do you guys ever like to go through YouTube and watch con and cosplay fandom videos from before the 2010's?It's a hobby of mine. It makes me sad.https://youtu.be/vc2Zj1C_uKY
>>10911009Also. Fuck Captcha with a cactus coated in pepper spray
>>10911010
>>10911011Winning some Worbla at a Cosplay contest
>>10911012This is actually one on my favorites. Don't ask why. I got hundreds of photos. Very few are any good. But a few are interesting.
>>10866338It was a better time.Normies ruin everything.Can't stomach any local cons now, full of OF girls filling the walkways making tiktoks to promote their socials.Hate it.
>107 days until Fanime>No vaccines but still have mask mandate in placeDid you get the hotel you wanted?What are your cosplay plans?How are we feeling about this year?
>>10910925How do people who are this frail survive their existence? Its probably scared of breathing for fucks sake.
>>10910943the bulk of people are from gaming and cosplay departments, both of which i don't think AX has a specific need for. also they're going to find that the AX machine is retarded too, but maybe with less "sexual assault"
>>10910946i've heard it's way more retarded and filled with infighting, especially more so when AX has industry contacts
>>10910943Oh it absolutely had to be a fuck you to everyone that left.Also seems they had a pedo in charge at one point.DESU with the way they keep shell gaming shit they're probably still on staff too.
To that one ex staffer afraid of naming whoever harassed you on staff, just name drop them here. They can't prove it was you. Maybe it was a friend who you confided in that posted it. Whoops. Plausible deniability. See, just like right now, I'm talking shit anonymously.
Hadn't realized how long it's been since we last had one of these. Would love to hear everyone's thoughts!>Hi there ! Here's my coord for my friend's (@roridoll) b-day ! >JSK, OTK, Clip : Angelic Pretty>Bonnet : La petite boutique de Mamie Zwiffi>Cutsew : Sleepyland Shop >Apron : @MlleEpine (on instagram)>Shoes : Modo
>>10911788roger roger, won't complain about quality on cof threads anymore
>>10911818Yup, same here. Good points were made, lesson learned.
>>10911402I really love this, those colors
>>10911834>>10911818Lurk moar
>>10911903but it's so nice when nonnas are goofy like this. Lighten up~

Are you supposed to seal Rustoleum? I was told originally that EVA foam with plastidip + a rustoleaum primer+paint wouldn't need to be sealed, and by and large the colour has held up well, but over time a thin film does come off and is pretty noticeable on my fingertips etc. Should I be going over it with something else before I wear it the next time?
>>10911926Always seal your paint jobs. Doesn't matter if it's cosplay, miniatures, or outdoor furniture. Sealing is just a better choice.
I figured I'd make one. I only ever come back for cons I'm going to. Any of you men going? Yeah I know it's expensive. And mostly drunk. But I enjoy the atmosphere and laying by the pool during the day. I've been serious on the diet and exercise train. Should be looking good enough for my Krauser cosplay in a month.
>>10911702Even if I needed a spot this year, I wouldn't have bothered with the Facebook group. They never answered anyone, and it got too sad after a while, watching all the "I'm not even desperate bro" posts
>>10911702Nah, I got plenty of money to spend. To pay for our rooms if we get openings. If anyone here is selling a room from Thursday night -sunday morning I'm down to put good money or it.
if you need a free room just go to the closest villa by the road that one last year was easy to walk in and drink for free and eat their food they didn't say anything when we walked away with 12 shots
>>10911682Comfortable bed aside, not having a hotel room means not having a shower for several days.Absolutely fucking disgusting.
>>10911717The villas were fun last year. Had a great time chatting with people and dancing. Wasn't as party hard as cowlosalcon. That was just outrageous.
another attempt at an appreciation thread to discuss this beautiful Austrian cosplayer. things to discuss:>her cosplay>her gravure sets>photos she herself poststhings not to discuss:>her nudes>drama>her flaws
>>10910163that anon is triggered because she doesn't just spend all her money on useless shit but also invested some of it.
she cute
>>10911817Very. I guess she has something in the works.
>>10911829a JAV?
>>10911844Yeah, mine.
