  • The cosplayers?

    I’m here, but I think I’m the only one to have posted in the last 4 months. I just make a couple cosplays per year as a hobby, so I don’t really have much to post. And asking for cosplay help seems pointless. Here I could wait a week for one response, whereas on instagram I’ll get 5 different ways to fix my issue in an hour

    reddit had some decent cosplay discussion, but as far as i can tell, most of the community is just on instagram (and some youtube)




  • social media that focuses on displaying your personal image is a scourge on humanity

    I get what you’re saying, but I think that’s kinda reductive. When I see a picture on Facebook of my uncle on his dirt bike all smiles after winning a race, I think that’s a positive and fruitful use of social media.

    And personally, I like sharing a picture of a cosplay I made, hopefully to help someone else who might be on a similar creative path. Or at least to discuss creative processes.

    I guess this is my actkually moment, but I think your assessment is off.





  • I’ve made a few costumes, and worn them them to a few cons. Looks like she could unbutton the shirt, undo the belt buckle and pants, and basically take the whole thing off down to the upper thighs. Like you would a jumpsuit with a front zipper.

    Hopefully she at least has a hotel room nearby, because doing that in a public restroom could get harrowing lol


  • Thanks! And the Imperial office on the left in the scooter, and someone in a Winter Soldier(?) cosplay upstairs. That’s one of my favorite things about “hallway” convention shots vs. organized photo shoots—you get to see an eclectic mix of fandoms and a taste for the feel of the con. Makes it all feel more alive.

    There were soooo many Vashes at DragonCon! I’m not familiar with the manga/anime, but it’s pretty cool and intriguing that the character is so popular after having been introduced so long ago.
