Ben Nye body paint. Make sure to seal it afterwards unless you want everything you touch to turn green.

Any professional brand of face/body paint will do the job, although the paint job will take a long time and will require more than just painting yourself one color. The same way your face looks funny if you only put on foundation (and no contouring or highlighting or blush), your features will look flat with just one color. You'll want to get at least three colors, one main color plus high and low light colors.

As >>9127248 mentioned, Ben Nye is good, as is Wolfe FX, Diamond FX, TAG, Global, Cameleon, Kryolan Aquacolor, Mehron Paradise, and if you're feeling bold, you can look into liquid airbrush paints like ProAiir. You can apply paint with brushes (I'd recommend big fluffly brushes like kabuki brushes), sponges, or airbrush. Be sure to set and seal your paint with setting powder and spray to preserve the paint job and prevent transfer.

Sharpie bath or gtfo.

Why did this series become such a Reddit autist paradise? I had so much fun with these games before Sega was kill and now everyone who's into them in obnoxious levels of cringey.

>>9127343
simple character designs with one dimensional personalities that are literally color coded for easy identification all set in a world of pure good vs pure evil.

>>9127376
Ironically, it also makes it easier for autists to understand.

Thanks a bunch!

Oh look, another male making an entire thread dedicated to asking to be spoonfed help for his cosplay.

>>9124919
Pretty sure it exists? I've seen dolls otakus so...

>>9124919
I'd probably call myself the lolita equivalent of an otaku. I spend all my free time on lolita related stuff and over half of my income on it. (Basically everything that isn't used on bills. I live very modestly) lolita basically takes up my life at this point and has for years. I'm not very cute though and autistic as fuck, but I assume most Japanese otaku are high functioning autists themselves. You kind of have to be to devote so much time and energy to a very specific and niche hobby with no tangible rewards.

I wouldn't call myself a lifestyler though, I don't do the whole tea and macarons thing and I don't post pictures online. I know I'm trash.

>>9124919

We just call them lolita, anon.

It's hard to be in the fashion and not be able to recognise particular prints or dresses, if only because you need to differentiate between something that goes for $500 on the secondhand market or $150 to make sure you're not getting ripped off. The really famous prints become a discussion topic once bidding hits $500. All lolitas have been indoctrinated about good lace vs bad lace. There's so many substyles you often need to study up on which one you're trying to coord, otherwise you end up looking like a clusterfuck. You learn to save your money for AP's fall releases if you like sweet in darker colours, or for Halloween if you like gothic-sweet, or you learn where girls sell secondhand Moitie if you're into gothic lolita.

Lolitas are basically frilly dress otakus, it's part of the hobby. If you aren't all that obsessed with lolita you'll quickly lose interest and drift away after the first dress.

Maybe you'd like to change the topic and ask what cgl obssesses over instead? You'd get a more in depth answer than "yes, lolita otakus exist"

Best thing i'e ever seen. Do you have a friend to do Kyle? Because your cosplay is as good as shit without Kyle.

No, but I found this cosplay.

>>9123923
Aw man that's sweet! I bet he's an atheist.

Usually cons with an older population, like SF cons, have better parties. People have more money, and everyone's above drinking age.

>>9123901
Arisia.

Dragoncon, MTAC.

Colossal too but the party scene has become too much of a frat douche paradise unless you're only hitting up private/exclusive parties.

But yeah what the other Anon said, older crowds = more parties. Sometimes small, shitty cons can be good for parties because there's nothing better to do but it depends on the age of attendees.

>>9121582

HYPE

even though I'm doing rewears and the weather is going to kill me

You lucky sob

My secret is that at cons, if I've forgotten toiletries like face wash or even razors, I use those of whomever I'm rooming with without asking. If they leave something I need in the bathroom or shower, I consider it fair game. I know it's wrong, but it hasn't stopped me.

So that one time we roomed... and my dildo was all sticky... oh god...

OP here.
What I think makes this a 10/10 is the choice of fabrics. I see a lot of Raven cosplayers use wetlook spandex or vinyl/faux leather for the body suit and I think that usually looks terrible and always clashes with the fabric used for the cape.
The cape looks excellent and well made. No wrinkles and thick fabric so it isn't slightly transparent when spread out.
The boots match the color of the cape and look accurate to the character's.
Makeup is perfect and the face paint matches the color of the legs. I've seen many Ravens have darker or lighter face paint than their leggings color. She even shaded her lip like the Raven's in the show. A lot of Raven cosplayers overlook this detail and either paint their lips all black or the same color as the facepaint.

Wig and gems look good too. Would have liked the wig to be a little shorter but all in all perfect cosplay.

>>9111139
if only the make-up was good

>>9111142
The fabric choice for the bodysuit is actually awful, anon. I don't know what you're smoking.
