Recently I got a crush on slav women, they're fucking goddessesName: ksana stankevich
>>10912129Ryoko Demon and Rei Doll were very big on the Euro cosplay scene over a decade ago - constaly zipping around yurop to compete or judge cosplay competitions. Since the recent unpleasantness Rei Doll has been living in Istanbul though after constantly speaking out against Putin and cronies on social media.

Years ago, when cosplay started getting popular, but also sexual, I remember being a big fan of a certain cosplayer. They turned out to be quite rude to their fans, and I was left being disappointed by it. Later as the years went by, I came upon information that her cosplay hype died down, her twitch and vtuber arc couldn't lift off the ground, and she lost her twitter verification, and just isn't popular anymore. Basically what I'm trying to say in this thread is; fuck that whore. But also how has the cosplay community/scene been? Has it gotten more slutty? Worse? Better? Are people chill, or rude? Tell me your experiences from before (5-10 years ago) v.s now.
SOMETHING IS EATING THE SUN
>>10909525>Anime characters fucking suck today.>Why cosplay when you can't be inspired by this shit?Sounds more like a skill issue
>>10902264no one cares about others nowadays, some cosplayers just want to sell their socials others just like their cosplays not the poeple in the event and the rest are degenerates
>>10902106Mfw OP is just salty that he got rejected by some normie womanThis happens all the time to men
>>10912104And some cosplayers just want to sell each other the same products they're all promoting in the same affiliate programs.
How come they’re never as cute as JP idols?
Yeah. They’re amazing and I love them and everyone who performed
>>10911931>>10911935make it any less obvious dream fusion, learn how to use 4chan
Hai really flopped with some of these openers for the Babybeard tour. We got two well established groups, Paida, and a bunch of randos?
>>10912032I guess that's what happens when you open it up to applications and only certain groups apply, and I have a strong feeling one of them was asked to join and didn't have to apply.
>>10912033Who're these other groups? They look like kpop groups or something? I only know etude and a-muse.
Taking place April 27th-28th we're just over a month away, are any of you guys planning on going? Anyone returning from last year, or planning on going for their first time this go-around? Cosplay plans? C'mon let's hear 'ya out.
Had a great day today, pretty much was dancing the entire time between the djs on the outside stage and then the eurobeat show. Got to hear China gal and Magical girl live, never thought that day would come.
I had a lot of fun today lads. It was nice meeting people from this site IRL. Can’t wait for tomorrow!>>10912051Interesting change from April to June. Though that gives me more time to save up for next time, so no complaints from me lol.
What a great day one. Didn't do well in the th 19 tournament, but it was all fun regardless
>>10909559Been so busy I forgot to post here. Are you in cosplay? I'll be the bawka in the hapi in the game room with the arcades. Hope to meet up!
>>10912092I think I'm blind, I can't find you. No cosplay, but I got a purple backpack and a renko figure

>>10911849You're complaining and getting about a small event that might be for only 200 people on 4chan. Nothing you said implies or shows proof of a scam. Don't attend if you don't care for the con, and don't call things a scam because you have some tinfoil logic
>>10911698I when to Orlando Anime Day with some other gulls and we had a good time.
I am trying to hit a lot of cons in Florida this year. Anyone willing to trade a spot in their hotel room for bartending services? I can mix some drinks.
>>10911918It's a small one day type of gig.
>10911849>bragging about how many cons you've been to in 3 years>this general incoherence I have a pretty good idea who this is lmao.>>10911852Don't bother giving him (you)'s he will do some insane mental gymnastics to validate how right he is and if not must be one of his infamous 'haters'. You will literally lose braincells taking to this guy.
I figured I'd make one. I only ever come back for cons I'm going to. Any of you men going? Yeah I know it's expensive. And mostly drunk. But I enjoy the atmosphere and laying by the pool during the day. I've been serious on the diet and exercise train. Should be looking good enough for my Krauser cosplay in a month.
>>10911702Nah, I got plenty of money to spend. To pay for our rooms if we get openings. If anyone here is selling a room from Thursday night -sunday morning I'm down to put good money or it.
if you need a free room just go to the closest villa by the road that one last year was easy to walk in and drink for free and eat their food they didn't say anything when we walked away with 12 shots
>>10911682Comfortable bed aside, not having a hotel room means not having a shower for several days.Absolutely fucking disgusting.
>>10911717The villas were fun last year. Had a great time chatting with people and dancing. Wasn't as party hard as cowlosalcon. That was just outrageous.
So, what are some decent recommendations for hotels or inns close to the con?

What would be the best material to make a suit of power armor? Small pieces of 3d print, foam? Should I design it in the early fallout slimmer style or the later fallout mech style?
RIP help gen thread.if it isnt just for a photoshoot, I would pick whatever design is easiest to move in. try to plan pieces out according to your height and shape so it looks proportional, I assume youre not doing stilts and shit to get it tv-series sized. if you dont know what youre doing then maybe a cardboard so-bad-it's-good version would get a good reception. If youre being serious I would 3d print the helmet and use a combination of foam and worbla for the rest.
3D printing if you want the easy route but most people just use foam. All the power armour suits are popular enough to have patterns or files somewhere you can download (or purchase).
May 17-19, 2024Are you going for the whole weekend?What are you cosplaying?Is your cosplay done or are you con crunching?Are you hosting a panel or working a booth?Going to the rave?Favorite part of the con?Any other activities you’re looking forward to?

>>10912083what rhythm games does ACEN usually have
The impromptu gull/Discord meetup at C2E2 yesterday was totes fun! Reisen absolutely utterly SERVED everyone, in the traditional sense of the word, with his sick ass moves! Fucking hung over as shit, but I'll be around the con for a bit more today. Might do another meetup in the lobby area of the Hyatt later today if anybody is still around. Say hi if you see me, I'll be in the in blue Miku wig. Next is ACEN!
Boy oh boy, this is already shaping up to be a "great" year!
>cosplayer starts while taking the hobby seriously>does props, full costumes, sometimes sexy but only if she genuinely likes the character>she notices her few sexy cosplay gets insanely more popular than the non-sexy stuff>eventually, she does more ero-cosplay than non-ero >starts selling content but is non-risky stuff>then goes full erotic with risky angles>some pictures have little glimpses of her areola>she is still against nudity>after constant begging (and because she already sold some pictures and knows they would eventually leak anyway) she post her tits>then full nude>cosplay is set aside and most of her pictures now are lingerie, nude, ocacionally cosplaying the waifu of the month>at the end, you can find hd pictures of her spreaded pussyWhy does this happens so much?
>>10905109simp harder bro, she's totally gonna fall in love with your complete lack of backbone.
>>10910905Man I would've been way more likely to pay for lewds of the 2017 version than the 2024. She went from cute skinny cosplayer to one of a billion mildly overweight fake goth thots.
>>10910905The whole community is hilariously evil. They sabotage each other a lot."Yes baby, you should totally open an only fans, it will help your career, why I don't have one? Oh, I'm just waiting until I got back to the gym but you should totally do it"
>>10910920>I would've been way more likely to pay for lewds of the 2017 versionShe was still a minor in high school then, unless you don't mind having contraband.
>>10902005internet ruined her, that's actually a great cosplay
Popular female cosplayers seems to of become more of dressing slutty for attention than putting together a well made costume for a hobby
>>10911279>wtf a posterboy for faggots is a faggot? how could this be happening let me run to tell /tg/really?
>>10889919>Its called having some self respect.but a lot of them will be rich by 30 and by that time everything would've forgotten about them, then the next generation of cosplayers do the same fucking thing
>>10876462and still has way more money than all this thread combined
>>10854558>actual real cosplayers converted to thotdomwell this arent actually bad honestly
>>10863319>I'd be content, but they sell themselves as something they're not and get offended when someone calls them on their bullshitabsolutely, just be upfront about it and call it a day
I lost my nail inspo folder on my old pc so I'm starting with a mini dump in hopes of other anons dumping as well :)
