Nice!

Are we gonna be ok to meet on Friday if there's a photo shoot going on at the same time at the same area?

Maybe change the location?

This is awesome- I'll be there wearing this too! One of my favorite cosplays to wear. I think as long as they are secured, the chopsticks should be okay with the weapons check guys. The only concern I can guess they would have is poking people in crowded areas. But they aren't sharp, so I would assume it's okay. What's the diameter of the wheel and what material is it? That might factor into their decision. Do you have any progress pics?

My wheel is wood and the spikes are EVA foam, I'm a little worried myself. It's not dangerous by any means, but I worry they'd find it too unwieldy and heavy for me to be carrying around.

Are you coming to the From Soft meetup? I am hosting it! I'd love to see you there.

Dang, yours is really good! Did you get your wheel from Wayfair? I think we have the same one. I didn't originally plan on going to the Fromsoft meetup but now I suppose I am.

I still have to add the spikes and trim a spoke or two, but I'm adding some lining to the inner side of the rim so it doesn't annihilate my shoulder.

That's amazing that we have the same wheel! I found mine locally somewhere but yeah it looks like exactly the same model. Mine has a small pillow attached where it rests on my shoulder, I definitely recommend it- I wore this to MAGfest for a couple of years and had no problems carrying it for pretty much a full day each time.

This will be hilarious, if we come across each other I'd relish the opportunity to tag team chase people around. The meetup is Saturday at 1PM, outside of Charles St. Lobby east exit. My sister will be wearing it then since I'll be sporting Vicar Amelia for the meetup.

I would've loved to get married in lolita, but the dresses are in high demand and really rare where I am. Wouldn't want to buy one and no one would rent one halfway across the world.

I wore a classical looking long dress with some lace around the shoulder/neck area. It wasn't AS pretty, but I'm happy with it.

First of all, what KIND of face paint? Dollar store carnival face paint or Ben Nye? Oil-based or water-based? This is kind of important, because honestly it's better to go big or go home with bodypaints.

Secondly -- the answer you're looking for is "sealing." There's a million cosplay tutorials about sealing body paint (mostly for Homestucks) and it all involves sealing the paint you put down. Here's a tutorial from Hanyaan:

>>9133711
I got a container of Diamond FX black face paint. Wax based I believe.

>>9133711
Is it a good idea to use the sealer on my hands as well?

if something is too cheap a lot of buyers will be suspicious of the quality and not purchase. there have been times that i was trying to sell clothing and when i took it down and relisted it at a slightly higher price the item sold right away.

>>9132053
Just provide detailed proof photos and let the quality speak for itself. Explaining the situation will help too, such as "closet cleaning, liquidating wardrobe for emergency ______, low prices to make it move fast" etc

Can this be the price check thread?

>>9132418
I'll be selling the bags in person so people can totally see that the products are good

Don't have photos but there was a Gravitation group at this year's MomoCon

Almost everything that was popular in the 90s-early 2000s besides Sailor Moon, Evangelion, and Cardcaptor Sakura.

Oh goodness, I feel the exact same way. It doesn't help that I'm polyamorous but I also don't want to be that bisexual stereotype.

Oh yeah, and how important is it to know Japanese. I've heard Tokyo is super gaijin town and is pretty easy to navigate.
I still want to learn some Japanese to not be a rude tourist, but would like to hear opinions on how much you should know to navigate the city would be helpful.

Any good craft stores to check out? Besides the Daiso craft section. Stationary stores could be good as well

>>9108035
I recently went to Japan with almost zero language skills and you absolutely don't need any japanese. Everything is in english (trains, street names, maps) and at train stations and big shopping malls you find english speaking staff if you need to ask for directions. Also the staff in restaurants and shops can speak the necessary sentences in english. A few words like Arigatou gozaimasu, sumimasen, ikura desu ka are helpful and polite, otherwise you don't have to worry (thought I really regretted not speaking japanese a little better, I suggest you if you are motivated, definitely learn as much as possible before your trip). The same also counts for Kyoto, Osaka and Nara

> except Finns because they're apparently too cool and want their own thread
Are you fucking 12 or something being this butthurt?

>>9107328
Are you finns? Since you keep going into other threads just to shit on everyone ;)

>>9107335
Finns wanting to keep their own thread with Estonians makes sense tho. Finns are not connected like Norway, Sweden and Denmark for example. The language is so different there is no real sense trying to discuss Finnish things in these threads.

Would it be possible to make liquid (baby oil?) filled syringes with out using resin? like using a strong e6000 style glue to seal the end/plunger up?

>>9104714
I don't think baby oil is a good idea as well as oil in general, the wrong temperature and it becomes clumpy and disgusting.

>>9104803
That's what I've heard people have been using when not using UV resin? I've never heard of baby oil going lumpy....ever
