Planning on cosplaying Sakura in the summer, so making a thread for inspiration. Post the good, the bad, and the ugly.
I'll start with a small dump
>>9241341
What outfit are you doing? The one in your first pick?
>>9241376
Honestly I'm not too sure yet but I'm leaning towards pic related
>tfw you want nothing more than to cosplay Sakura
>tfw you're 25
This skirt makes me so happy.
>>9241462
>tfw you know that feel
>tfw you're 31
>>9241480
>also know that feel
>33
>cosplayed CCS a couple times when I was young, but I'm so much more advanced in sewing than I was 13 years ago and I desperately want to make immaculate CCS cosplays. I even still have a very nice wand.
boo. I am a creepy old lady who wishes she had a cute young friend to dress up. Maybe some day I'll have a daughter who doesn't object to cute dresses.
Small image dump of the not as popular outfits. Kind of tired of that first opening dress. Still want to cosplay it.

Last one.
Who else is excited by the upcoming outfits in the new CCS manga?
Can't wait for possibly more mature outfits now that she's older, godslayingly adorable is still fine tho
>>9241753
I am now! I hadn't heard about it at all.
>>9241831
Cardcaptor Sakura: Clear Card Arc I think it's called,
I also heard there is another anime in the works as well, I'm guessing it's going to be based on the new arc but who knows. I hope it's not going to be a complete shitfest similar to SMC
>>9241753
im excited to see builds for the new wand, and i hope they make a new official book with the new cards! wonder how they'll handle the transparency though?
>>9241858
I think the transparency will be fine, I'm more worried about all the finger marks they're going to get the moment you touch them
I love the new wand, bitch could poke your eye out at a distance if she sees you stealing her man
>>9241358
Cute! I love costumes from the manga.
>>9241894
I re-read the original manga before jumping on the new one so I could recognize returning characters I've forgotten and tbf - the storytelling has always been pretty lacking and clumsy. Clamp is pretty hit or miss on that part.
I can't wait to see a well done version of this, it's just to adorable
>>9241912
This is already in my plans desu. That design is so cute and all I can think of is expensive stretch vinyl.
>>9241385
Yee! it's the image I cleaned up years ago!
where is the best place to get a wig? Or do you think natural is best?
>>9242451
This shoop is fucking terrifying
>>9241535
>over 20/30
>can't cosplay cute things
Gulls you just go for it! Prepare a good cosplay, put your sewing skills into work. Your costume will be much better than those you made as a teen, you will have lots of fun. Why bother about your age.
I'm in my twenties too and I don't give a damn, just make my cosplays nice and wear them. Please don't let anybody tell you there is an age limit to cosplaying!
Cheers ~
Cosplaying Syaoran soon, any tips on making his main outfit more flattering or good examples? Because of all the loose pieces and the long sleeves it translates poorly on most cosplayers IMO.
>>9242462
I still cosplay (sometimes; the older I get the more I just want to wear comfortable shoes and no wig at cons), I just don't want to cosplay 10-year-olds at my age and current appearance. I want to make the cute CCS costumes, I just don't have anyone to make them for.
>>9241894
It's dumb but my main pet peeve is their art in the new one. They ink digitally instead of traditionally now, and the linework just takes away some of the charm. It's very static compared to the original manga.
>>9242520
Ever considered doing commissions?
>>9242574
I take some commissions, I've just never been asked to make CCS.
I cosplay Sakura from time to time. I have bought over like... 8 different wigs and I still don't get the exact color I want for her gosh ! ;_; Next time I will try to still my wig a bit better. I had forgot my hair spray at last con -.- ~ If you have wig recommendations, that would be nice <3
>>9243126
>;_;
>-.-
><3
>>9243278
This looks incredible, BUT I wish the card was the Light or Dark seeing as that's the one she captured in that outfit.
>>9243126
That cosplay is cute! I like the color of the wig, I just think the bangs need to be fluffed up a lot more.
>>9243126
tfw no one ever uses the right material for this costume. It's canon made of rubber.
>>9243302
Yeah and them actually being a healthy weight would also help.
>>9243495
Then make it out of rubber, anon.
>>9243495
probably because making it out of rubber would look like shit
>>9243495
I wanted to do it out of rubber... but yeah. I'm a poor student... And as other anon said, I'm really not sure it would have look good !
>>9243604
lot's of fetishists would probably disagree
This thread needs more Shaolan and Eriol!
>>9243495
You can't make it out of rubber. I've seen it made out of vinyl, but generally people aren't going to use that because it's not a beginner material and doesn't breathe so you end up disgusting and sweaty as fuck.
I've been thinking about doing this cosplay but instead of the darker pink I was going to use the lighter pink likevin this image. Would that be acceptable or would it look like shit?
>>9242520
>tfw anon will never be the tomoyo to your sakura
i'm not a cosplayer (at least not anymore--just a lolita now) but i would do it for sakura. i hope my baby face would do her justice. someday. she has so many outfits and most of them are to die for thanks to based tomoyo.
i'd like to do her OG outfit first, maybe
>>9241858
>>9241864
Someone has already tackled this amazingly.
>>9244471
What pink? The wand or the flowers? They're both very light pink in the illustration? I'm very confused
>>9243159
So sorry for OT but
This gif is too cute, anyone knows what the original program is?
>>9244672
Oh wow! This is amazing, would love to see it flipped over. Who made these?
>>9243682
There was someone at AAC wearing the outfit made out of vinyl, wish I'd grabbed a pic but didn't get a chance to stop them.
>>9244672
...it's just laser-etched acrylic tho, not exactly difficult
>>9241724
I don't know what to think about this with that btssb dress collaboration going on... I'll pick this cosplay over that...
>>9241753
OH WAIT new manga? I didn't know about this!!
