Is there much of a community of capeshit cosplayers on /cgl/?
>>9382738
Yeah, but its not particularly robust. We had >>9374416 recently, but there's not really enough people to sustain a thread for very long.
Planning on making my first cosplay Kon-El
Got my newest spidey suit in today, homecoming pattern design with the raised spider. Gotta say I'm pretty happy with how it came out, also get a faceshell it really is worth it
[spoiler] I know the Spider-Man community is cringey sometimes but hell if I don't love it [/spoiler]

I've found them to be some of the nicest people around, at least in California.
What cons are you planning on taking your suit to?
>>9393820
Why do iPhone selfies alway rotate sideways senpai?
>>9393826
Megacon, Metrocon, Dragoncon, Katsu and depends on wherever else my travels may take me
>>9393820
Very nice. I always wanted to cosplay spiderman but don't have the money for the suit yet. One day....
But on topic, I have a blue beetle and kid flash costume, but gained a gut so now I'm too embarrassed to wear it
>>9393852
How big of a gut senpai? I don't have a perfect 6 pack myself (I certainly don't have a beer belly either). To be fair because I have broad shoulders it allows for me to have a little more wiggle room around the middle area.
Tl:Dr: unless you have a massive Boiler or pose for a detail oriented photo shoot no ones gonna notice a little pooch, especially if your suit helps cover it up
>>9393852
Don't let that stop you! That's what shapewear is for (and yes, even dudes can wear it.)
This is reminding me that I still really want to cosplay Shadowcat and Phoenix. For those of you who have commissioned suits where did you get them and did you like them?
>>9393886
I've seen Phoenix on most zentai suit websites. Not sure about Shadowcat though. Any design in particular you're looking for?
>>9393908
I wasn't going to try to get in this year but I didn't get email notifying me when they go on sale either. Was I stupid or did they do something different this year?
>>9393911
I believe there was one email.. Which is different because I remembered getting spammed with alerts in previous years. But I also didn't go last year so I wonder do they send more to returning members
>>9393892
I'd like to do her All-New X-Men or Excalibur costumes but they both have weird parts that don't lend themselves to zentai suits very well (the pointy shoulder pads and bishop sleeves respectively).

^this anon here, are there any other spideys here on /cgl/? I've seen one or two earth 616 patterns, one Maguire-verse pattern and one Ben Reilly but that was a number of months-years ago and haven't seen anything from them since
>>9394839
I cosplayed a version of Spiderman;s Vigilante suit (on the lower left) but I still need to improve it. I gotta get a new mask for it and paint my goggles white to better suit the original
>>9394866
That's pretty good, you don't see cosplays of that version of spider man every day
>>9394093
That jacket is pure sex in the Quitely drawings but in real life it always looks so bad
>>9396144
The only thing that sucks is the mask. I need a better one because the zentai one outlines my face too much.
>>9393820
Where did you get your faceshell, friend?
Im saving up money for a quality costume for Halloween, my only problem is I don't know if I want to be Wolverine or Doctor Strange
What do you think /cgl/?
>>9403464
If you do Wolverine then which version?
>>9397653
You mean like every Quitely drawing?
>>9394094
I honestly can't tell if that's a man or a woman. Perfect way to keep your secret identity, though
>>9404388
That's Batwoman. She's got boobs.
>>9404396
Your mom has boobs
>>9404347
I don't know if you are saying that every Quitely drawing is pure sex or that it looks like shit in real life
Hopefully you are not talking shit about my artist husbando
I want to do Soranik Natu one day but don't particularly like spandex and have no tits to speak off...
>>9404339
It would definitely be one of the Hugh Jackman incarnations. The only costume from the comics I'd think of doing is Days of Future Past, I'd have a tough time making any of the classic ones
But yeah I'm thinking of doing a movie version
Are there any versions you'd suggest I do? I'm open for ideas
>>9382738
Get out
>>9404755
I hate his art, but I understand that's subjective. His costume designs rarely translate well into real life.
>>9405255
Why movie version? The comic contain so many more interesting costumes, you could just look up 'Wolverine Alternate outfits' on google and get a huge list of them to choose from.
i'm making a laura kinney cosplay, does anyone have advice on what kind of materials to use for the claws?
Here's the full look at Spiderman's early costume in the MCU if anyone wants to take a crack at it. I'm thinking about it.
>>9406874
How would I go about making the cape detachable?
>>9406874
That's adorable. I love it when his costume looks like shit because there's no way in hell a teenage boy learned to sew spandex in a night.
>>9406886
Snaps, velcro, magnets. Kind of your prerogative.

>>9406018
Try 3D printing if you can, if not and you have time there are some Wolverine claws they are selling for cheap on aliexpress
The only capes I'm interested in are from the Worm webserial. Very little in the way of references to work with in some cases, not sure which ones would suit me the most and be remotely identifiable. Maybe Tattletale, not sure.
