Fucking hell

Retards are retarded, why is this news?

Considering there's more models getting into cosplaying, yes.

>>9034135
Over time it slides into normalcy. It's more socially accepted than 20 years ago, and in 20 years it'll be even more so. So, I think so.

>>9034135
Why wouldn't it be?

Do we not complain on cgl anymore?

So my friend started dating a cosplayer that's...I guess out of my local community but was close friends with a big cosplayer in my area. I was a little happy about it bc I was like 'cool, new friend to do stuff with!'
But me and my friends are pretty chill about cosplay. I have a lot more income than them so I can afford to buy nice cosplays or throw a bunch of money at a cosplay when I make it.but my friends buy cheaper cosplays more than they make anything.
This new girl...is a judge mental elitist who likes to make fun of my other friends personal life and then rub it in her face and gets offended when my friend gets upset. When she asked where I got a cosplay and I told her taobao she made a nasty face at me and turned away.
She tells her bf that she really likes the rest of us and wants to be friends with us so he tries really hard to help us all be friends, but she's just kinda a cunt.
I'm seeing this shit more and more and it's annoying. I also thought she'd be a great cosplayer bc of who she used to be friends with (they had a huge falling out), but she's really not and she will only be in cosplay for a max of 2 hours before changing and whining about it.

I feel like my local community really just fucking sucks as people. They're all judgmental elitists without the ability to back up that attitude and I'm sick of their bullshit drama.

I'm fucking crying. Where do I buy this deck?

Added

they give you a place to refer people to if you don't want to give them your personal facebook. it also works as a more public thing in general. people can look up your cosplay name and find your page because they probably don't know your real name (which you have locked down to begin with).

>>9048606
I know I have one just so my coworkers don't see my cosplay pictures. Some people prefer to make it so only certain people see the pictures, but I find it easier to just have them all in one spot.

>>9048611
I haven't thought of this. This is a pretty good reason. Thanks.

>>9042454
is the construction on the convention center even finished?
Last I heard the food court and the main stairway were both closed off

>>9047364
I didn't even know there was construction

>>9047364
Sounds like the big stairs will be shut off this year. Which REALLY sucks as that's THE hang out spot.

It won't stop me from enjoying the con, though.

My cosplay plans are "have a reason to be shirtless and drunk".

That being said, I've attended the con sober before. 2 years ago. The rave and panels were amazing

>>9042257
You first.

good luck on this one not dying.
I got tons of photos taken of me this weekend, but no one's posted them.
Might take another day or two

Went Friday & Saturday. Had an uneven experience overall; met some cool new people and loved seeing the Lolita's and seeing Minori. The panels, lines and body odor are almost deal breakers though. For such a large con, kinda underwhelmed with the selection. I don't know if I'll come back.

This was my thought about the con too, especially it being my first ever.
However, going back Saturday night and Sunday, a much more calm day as everyone was winding down, and talking and meeting more people convinced me to give the con thing another go. I mean 80% were total weirdos but the rest were decent people.
Plus, maybe I'll snag myself a qt cosplay grill.

Pizoobie is my favorite Mercy.

Can we get some cute Mei cosplayers? I wanna cosplay her and want some inspiration.

Also, thoughts on chubby Mei? I know it's canon that she's "chubby" but I still feel awkward cosplaying if I'm a little overweight.

They weren't shitting up the general though. The general shits itself just fine without any help so stop trying to find a scapegoat.

>driving with sister
>see a flock frills walking
>couldn't stop the car to say hello or anything
>they were gone in less than a second
The good thing is I know there are frills still here in 912
Bad thing is I sold my only dress to help out my mom and sister a few months ago so I can't join you.

Some of them are fine, but a lot of them suck and aren't even recognisable as the character. Like your picture- you only know it's Sailor Moon because of the hair and the giant patch on the back. Other than that, it's just a generic, rather bad, punk outfit. I really dislike the trend for "punk sailors"- almost every single one is a hot mess.

I like them if they're cool, interesting, and recognizeable. Unfortunately, these days, 95% of the time alternative outfits has become code for "I don't have either the time, the money, or experience to try and create a cosplay of this character's regular outfit, so I'm going to closet cosplay it/buy a bunch of random things and pretend it's an AU outfit"

>>9037257
I made the thread because I ran into a punk Madoka this past weekend. She did a REALLY good Godoka and a couple of other good cosplays though, so I didn't hold it against her or anything, but it made me want to try a gederbend punk Luna ans a sort of casual cosplay for Sundays at cons and such. I just can't figure out how to do it without it seeming super lazy.

I'll only be there one day this year. Hoping to see some frillies I haven't seen in a while. Maybe get a photo with Bob Morley to feed my massive 100 boner.
