this cosplay's from a while ago, but it's still really cool

>>8737654
i really hope they do something in the future to make the bottom mouth look more realistic, like fake skin. the bottom mouth is the only thing i really don't like about this cosplay. the rest of it looks fantastic, just that second mouth looks so out of place.
i do like that the color seems to match the rest of the skin tho.

>>8737662
that shitty star cutout ruins all the effort she put into the dress

>>8737672
this dress is sad too. why bother cosplaying if your idea of cosplaying is to throw on a dress that looks vaguely sorta kinda similar

>>8737682
they couldn't have done the eyes any better? or that god awful wig line?

>>8737689

18 pounds of bright pink cow shit

>>8737739
i'm ready to admit no one will ever make a rose dress that isn't total shit

>>8737745
once again please kill me

honestly i hate when rose cosplayers wear the mr universe shirt i feel like it's such a lazy cop out to not have to deal with the top half of the dress, particularly the cutout (which i have never once seen look good but you could at least try)

>>8737756
yeah, its pretty much the biggest cop out people do who want to cosplay rose but dont wan to put in any effort. bonus points if they just wear a white maxi skirt underneath

>>8737861

man, i shouldnt type when im this tired

>>8737713
I really don't like this Connie. If this is the same one I have been seeing, she is always pictured looking really annoyed or giving attitude.

ive thought the same thing- on every aspect she's a great connie, she just looks vaguely pissed off in every photo. i really dont get it. pic related, it's her too

>>8737911
she looks like she's trying for a smug look in this one.
why. there's no reason for it. connie is a sweet girl that just wants to smile at people. come on.

>>8737895
i think she posted ages back and said she just had resting bitch face or something and wasn't deliberately trying to look grumpy. or maybe that was another connie?

>>8737737

>>8737737
18 pounds of what? That looks like a couple rhapsody wigs put together, are they including the mannequin head weight?

>>8737990
i get resting bitch face too (my neutral face sometimes looks pissed off) but a smile would fix that really easily, especially since these aren't candid photos

>>8738097
just what i got from the wigmaker's description- it's apparently 8 wigs, but rhapsody wigs arent even that heavy

>>8738167
>8 wigs
Oh my god why? I feel sorry for that poor cosplayer, does she not know how to use foam or similar things to reduce the weight? I'm really curious now and reverse search isn't helping, got a link to the post?

>>8738173
>"I may or may not curl the ends"

Someone send this poor girl help.

>>8738176
why would you not curl the entire thing..? besides the obvious fact that it's huge- one of the most defining parts of rose's hair is that it has a ton of ringlets, big and small. how could you forego curls entirely?

>>8738175
>that totals up to over 500 bucks for that wig

I don't get it. Why is it so common for Tumblr cosplayers to go to extreme financial lengths just so they can brag.

>oh, yeah, my wig is actually eight wigs put together

I'd understand if it were in the name of screen accuracy, but this wig isn't.

>>8738193
exactly- the cowbuttcrunchies rose wig that was posted a while ago was probably around that amount, but it had a lot of curls and (even though it was the wrong color) looked way more like rose's hair and less like a huge drag wig

Shameless self-post

>>8738436
What sort of foundation are you using? You've got a really cute face for Pearl, but you might want to try something with higher coverage to even out your color.

>>8738423
you guys are really cute! she makes a good connie- her smiling is a lot more suited for connie and looks much better

>>8738489
what... why? I think her freckles are cute. ;_;

>>8738520
..what freckles? she's a good pearl, but it's just uneven skin tone. a full coverage foundation would make her skin smoother and more even-toned

>>8738520
I was referring more to the rosy tone she has on parts of her face - it didn't actually occur to me that she has freckles (I have some spots like that on my cheek too but I cover them up because I have them nowhere else so they look weird)

>>8738436
>>8738489
>>8738520
>>8738521
>>8738548

I'm the photographer, not the cosplayer... I don't know who the cosplayer is. T_T

The rosiness in her complexion might be light tinted by her wig. Either way, she is gorgeous. :D

>>8738569
What's going on with the huge blur spot to the upper left of her mouth?

>>8738423
tell her to stop looking over the glasses, it doesn't help with the resting bitch face. If it makes her eyes unclear in the pics, remove the lens (connie removed hers anyway)

>I also have resting bitch face

>>8738011
3edgy5me

>>8738173
i mean i like that its big, but how can she just choose not to curl it at all? rose has big obvious curls. you can't just slap on slightly wavy hair and call it a good rose wig.

>>8738423
resting bitch face is fine if you don't know the picture is being taken, but i mean why wouldn't you smile when you're posing? she looks adorable when she grins!

>>8738173
apparently she did decide to curl the wig, so i'm hoping it comes out looking good so she didn't end up wasting a ton of time and money

>>8738193
>Why is it so common for Tumblr cosplayers to go to extreme financial lengths just so they can brag.

She basically says why in her post: "here’s to hoping I’ll be remembered". I guess $500 or whatever she spent on the wig is worth her 15 minutes of efame?

>>8738869
not even efame- her posts have like 10 notes each. just a waste of money unless she puts in the time and effort to do decent curls

>>8738869
some people just want to put their all into their cosplays to make sure it looks good. but 500 on a wig is a little extreme. i hope that's not actually how much she spent.

>>8738874
jesus christ how terrifying. that garnet almost makes that crappy rose look ok

should i do another tag dump, or is this thread just not very frequented lately?

>>8739030
Eh, it's still early in the thread, and at a bad time because Americans are all lazing around after turkey day. Save the tag dump for a good 12 hours to kickstart discussion, maybe.

Fuck off EMCP, your work fucking sucks and I'm sick of seeing you shit up this board. Stop wasting your time "networking" and learn some basic lightroom tools.

>>8738853
Post pics once you see them. I'm worried it's just going to end up as a drag wig full of small curls but I'm still curious.

Related, what ever happened to the anon who said she could make a Rose wig with huge curls that weren't stiff?

>>8739210
i think you mean 'there will never be a perfect rose' because there are honestly some pretty good roses out there. its incredibly hard for one to be 'the best' because /cgl/ rarely agrees on something to be perfect, but there are roses that are better than the average 'slap on dusty pink wig and storebought wedding dress'

Thanks for the nice smile criticism. It's like some deeper rooted self-esteem issue that I can't wrap my head around. But seeing others agree that she's got a nice smile and that it'll up her cosplay game does help.

what do you guys think about using nose prosthetics for pearl, sardonyx, opal, etc? im thinking about using one like pic related for opal, but i dont want it to look really cheesy and bad

>>8740393
Maaaaybe. It depends on the shape of your face and how careful and committed you are to making sure the prosthetic looks amazing.

>>8740397
first off- sorry for the patchiness of the paint! i was still getting used to this brand and it was pretty rushed. this is what i normally do for opal- my nose is pretty big, but i was wondering if a prosthetic (properly blended and all) would look cool, or if it would just look too cartoonish and should just stick to my natural features. thanks!

>>8740424
minus the paint (and eyebrows...work on those) I think you look cute as is and a cartoony nose would just mess you up

>>8740444
thanks! yeah, i was definitely struggling with Opal's makeup, and I've improved since I did this makeup test, i just haven't had time to do a better one. But thank you for the input! ill stick with my real nose

>>8740424
I think you could contour your nose and it would exaggerate it slightly, making it look pointer and longer, and give it a more "Opal" look without being too fake.

>>8739992
>people who try to use costume satin as an insult when they don't even know enough about fabric to identify it

I know that Jamie versions of characters are a bit overdone at this point, but do you think it would work if I cosplayed Rainbow Quartz and my boyfriend did a Jamie version of it? He's the only character that my boyfriend even slightly resembles and would be willing to do, but if the idea is dumb I'll just do Rainbow Quartz by myself.

>>8743175
why doesnt he just do jamie in his mailman outfit? it's still recognizable without being overdone. there arent many jamies in his normal outfit

>>8743181
I suppose that would work, I guess I was just looking for something we could do together and Rainbow Quartz and Jamie-version Rainbow Quartz is the only option that works for both of us.

>>8740393
Honestly, it just looks offputting. I've never seen someone do it in a way that's didn't end up super scary looking, even with ones that are made and applied well. Your best bet is just contouring your nose as well as you can to make it look pointy.

>>8743229
I just wanted to see if other people thought it was a good idea or not. I turn to /cgl/ for opinions all the time because I'm not very experienced with certain things, but I still have my own thoughts and opinions. I guess I just wanted some feedback was all.

>People who are this bothered over misidentified fabric.

Maybe it's just her shit lighting but it looks shiny to me. Either way it's a garbage fabric that hasn't even been ironed.

>>8740393
I reccomend using a little bit of scar wax to give your self a *little* bit of a elongated nose, that prosthetic looks too lumpy and the edges are not going to be easy to blend (especially since its in the middle of your nose). So yeah use scar wax for a nose tip or look for more professional made nose/nose tips.

>>8743285
>>8743194
>>8743127
Thanks guys! I plan on revamping my Opal soon (new wig/outfit and better makeup skills) so when I do wear her again, I'll try contouring my nose more or adding the scar wax to make it a little pointier.

>>8740007
i was trying not to judge too hard because i thought this might be her first cosplay or she was really young, but she's 22.....

Anon... costume satin is obvious as hell when it's used... If you honestly thought that picture had any costume satin in it, you must have never seen costume satin photographed before.

question: while this wig is pretty awful for rose, would something like this work for rainbow quartz, with a little less volume?

>>8739210
I can imagine how tumblrites throw their shit at this person for thin-washing (or whatever) rose quartz

>>8749207
I don't think there's anything wrong with the volume, I think the bump is actually a good size for Rose, it's just lacking in any kind of curls. That's what makes it awful.

>>8749207
That wig would be great for a humanized Lion.

>>8749207
I wonder where all the gyaru hime wigs went - they'd be a great base for a rose wig!

>>8749258
My thoughts exactly, i think it would be almost ideal for Lion.

I do like the shape of the skirt, though the ruffles aren't accurate.

"Rose wore a strapless, floor-length, lilac-trimmed, tiered white and in some appearances a white and pink dress."

According to the wiki, grammar aside, you're all correct. There doesn't seem to be a huge amount of consistency in her dress colors or number of tiers. They could be different regens.
Her profile pic in Guide to the Crystal Gems definitely shows bubblegum-pink hair with a purple-tinted dress tiers, though the fabric in the cosplay is a bit too dark no matter what reference you're looking at...
Still the best Rose dress I've seen. Hopefully she'll do a good job on the star cutout.

>>8739964
If she got the top of her dress to fit her properly and got some character accurate makeup on, I think she could be a pretty cute Rose. She needs to look up in photos though.
Scrunching your neck up in pics isn't flattering on anyone, let alone big girls.
The wig is decent, but I feel like if he got a lighter shade of pink it would work a bit better.
She's got a good foundation to work off of cosplay-wise, but it needs work.

>>8758531
>>8758739
pretty much the hiatus, yeah. plus a lot of people got into undertale lately and are posting in those threads. when the show comes back, i imagine these threads will be revitalized, especially since it seems like a lot of character reveals and plot stuff will be happening soon.

>>8758983
exactly, anon. those look adorable. if i were good at baking and decorating, i would totally make some of those, since a lot of things can be stylized/simplified to make cute cookies (gems, shield, garnet's gauntlets, robonoids, etc)

you know, as a person who can't style wigs for shit (and I have tried, oh my poor poor wallet have I tried), I kinda like her approach to the wig. I think it could work if she had taken some fibers and swooped them over the clips to better hide them.

>>8762331
She's not going to be able to hide that many open spaces and parts/netting in each ponytail clip by just sweeping hair. It would look like a hot mess.

make your own opinions, anon. if you think it's good, youre free to feel that way. she's not suited to my tastes very well since i like more natural curls and a different approach to the dress, but she does have nice construction on everything. she's not a mess like most roses in >>8762610

>>8762701
She's done a lot of things right (or at least better than 90% of Rose cosplayers) but it's not perfect. I think with a more accurately-shaped dress she'd be pretty much set, though.

>>8762772
Rose canonically doesn't wear shoes. It's gross to go around a con like that but I guess I get where she's coming from...

>>8763285
you could do it for one picture i guess, but it's nasty to not wear shoes around a convention. plus her dress covers her feet all the time, except for a few occasions. id rather see nude pumps or those invisible shoes than someone's bare foot

A friend dressed as Toph from AtLA and wore sandals to her conventions. She'd take the shoes off for pictures and drop her bag on top to hide them or move so they were out of the frame.

>>8764432
that... still doesnt make sense. it's not like she wears a knee length dress- it covers her feet for 99.9% of the time. you can easily wear shoes and just keep your feet under your dress for photos and avoid touching gross con floor

Is it just me or does anyone else find it shitty that so many Pearl cosplayers just don't bother with body paint at all? Like, I mean, maybe if you're albino, but otherwise Pearl is like paper white, and I feel like it's lazy to not bother at all.

>>8765940
My guess is she tried to make a giant drill curl without any supporting structure, and just shellacked it in hairspray.

>>8768169
More pearls should do paint, I agree, but she isn't paper white, especially in recent episodes. She's more of an eggshell color-people still need to use paint, but some yellow tint in white paint would look really nice I think

i feel like that one is flattering because it is high cut and tight to the skin? most people just fit it like a basic leotard so combined with the limb extensors end up with stumpy leg effect

>>8770663
I know who this is, not friends with them at all just mutuals and happen to go to the same cons as her.

>>8737698
What kind of muscle thing does she have?

>>8738423
She looks like she has to sneeze.

>>8739941
Not that anon but
You really should look up some editing tips. D:

Seconded, there is no reason a B&W photo should have this little contrast.

>>8770663
Laughed when I saw her post, I love it when people do stupid shit in that group. Reminds me of the time when someone tried to paint Rose's shield with foundation or some other makeup

GET HYPE

>>8772052
I'm thinking we're going to get a ton of incidental Homeworld gems to cosplay from this episode.

>>8773676
this is the first time ive seen a rose that i didnt want to vomit all over.

>>8771929

ew why do they have an ass in the front

>>8773676
my only nitpick is the hems but they're annoying to deal with so overall I love it. Best bodice I've seen for rose ever.

>>8773735
i feel like calling it the best bodice is a bit generous, considering she didn't try to do the cutout. the failed attempt at which is the entire reason most rose bodices suck

>>8773735
i like this dress overall, but what about this bodice makes it the best ever? the construction is good, but she went for the pasted star instead of an actual cutout

>>8774873
so many question but the biggest one is
why the chicken den?

>>8773735
It's not boned and the underbust seams are completely unnecessary. Hardly would call it the best at all. Those off grain hems are atrocious as well. Pretty mediocre.

shameless selfpost since this thread is almost at its limit anyways, haha. left is my peridot from earlier this year- it was posted here and i thankfully got a lot of critique that i applied towards my revamped peridot on the right- there's still a lot of things i need to fix (mainly the visor's fit against the wig, better paint, and the shoe's crinkle problem) but i wanted to thank all the anons that helped me out with doing better

>>8774873
why would any thought process bring you to do feathers for a wig??

also not as glaringly awful, but
>what is color matching

from the bad cosplay thread

>>8775629
You made a HUGE improvement on your Peridot, my only gripe is the wig itself, the space between your forehead and the wig isn't good at all, and i think i can see your hairline and wig cap.

>>8776404
she looks ashamed of what shes created

>>8775629
I really like it. But Id recommend armsocks and a thicker collar too

>>8775629
>>8776448
idk about armsocks because of the way it would look against the open chest, but at least learn some good techniques for sealing body paint. a lot of people suggest looking at homestuck tutorials for paint sealing and that's a pretty good idea. that fandom pretty much became the go to for body paint after all the gripe they initially got for terrible body paint.
other anon is also right, that gap between the wig has got to be fixed. those are really your two main problems, because the rest of the cosplay looks so much better than it used to and just looks really decent in general.
the only other things i'm noticing is that what i'm assuming is your black bra is poking out way too much. i would suggest maybe using some sort of adhesive strip on the ba and the underside of the collar and green top part to attach them together, letting you move with it being a problem to adjust it regularly, plus a better fitting bra to not create the bulges between your armpits and waist. sand down the bottom corners of the visor so it still points down but it's not as sharp an edge. and maybe a hard plastic on your feet. the material you used bunches up too much. the way the black material on the hands also could use some touching up in the area where it wraps down around the fingers.
could you possibly post a closer picture of your gem and visor, if you have any? the angle and lighting is making the gem look a little odd, like good but not perfect photoshop lmao
also sorry if it seems like i was being nitpicky but i adore peridot and good cosplays of her are so hard to come by. yours is still really fantastic but all those little things can bring it from fantastic to perfect. yours is by far one of the best i've seen and you yourself are adorable. i think you could really make the best peridot cosplay we've seen with just a few improvements. please please PLEASE continue cosplaying peridot.

Thanks so much for the critiques! I'm definitely working on a way to make it all fit and look better than it is at the moment- this was mostly a test at a smaller con to see what needed work, etc. I plan on getting arm socks and connecting them to the chest piece so they aren't super oblivious, as well as working on the feet, and the bad gap between my head and the wig (my head's on the larger side so it's difficult to get non-arda wigs to fit me well haha). I'll work on all of those things and will definitely post again when I've fixed all of the issues!

Her update on the wig.
Half of it is curled.

>>8776836
holy shit that looks so much better and just really nice in general
kind wish it was longer, but i'm glad she decided to curl it. she was really sweet when i reached out to her on tumblr and suggested curling it. she also posted the dress she's working on.

>>8776854
How does her dress look?

>>8776836
it looks so soft now I want to curl up in it for a nap

oh god it's gorgeous! I am super glad she is accepting advice and is taking it slowly

>>8776836
This girl is trying so hard to have the biggest wig and the biggest dress ever, I think she forgot how stupid that can look in real life. I have the feeling she's going to look swallowed up by this thing.

>>8776947
This is her dress.
>>8750404

>>8777484
sadly i agree. the wig and dress look pretty great, but i feel like its going to overpower the actual cosplayer inside

>>8772256
possibly not, considering it's a Lotte Reiniger homage and her work is largely silhouettes

>>8737661
SU cosplayers are the next wave of homestucks
Paint everywhere

>>8737713
There's glass in her glasses.

>>8739946
...so the bartender asks "Why the long face?"

>>8740007
We need to find a bigger Dorito, has anyone else made a bigger Peri head?

>>8762603
It needs some refinement, but I really like the black Opal look.

>>8777624
You say that like people aren't going to cosplay the silhouettes.

I actually think this wig looks good, maybe it's not as same as rose's with curls but it looks great! Curls itself are terrible anyway
