What kind of dumb question is that?
Nothing's limited. Clean your glasses with some dish liquid and gently rub it off. Your glasses are much less likely to fog up, even with a mask. It's not fucking magic.

I've been wearing glasses since 2002 and this works for a grand total of like 3 hours.

I HAVE SO MUCH SHIT IN MY CART READY TO GO.

Really hoping the sellers don't hike the prices then "put them on sale" for more than the prices currently in cart..

That tends to happen every year though, so I guess we will see.

Has anyone ever used AliWangWang to talk directly with a seller? I keep getting a red exclamation mark every time I try to message a seller even though I was able to talk to them and receive a response regarding a pre-order in July. Did I get blocked?

Can you take money out of a spreenow account? I had to cancel something I had already paid for and they refunded my balance. I can't find any information about it and this has never happened to me before.

One more pic for bump, anyone? ;P

Uh oh janny is going to wake up in 8 min

I'm trying to do a cheap cosplay of balsac from gwar but so far I only figured out how to do the two jaws and how to get them into shape. i dont know how to set ir up so it stays on my head. Some people have a hat on but i have long hair and wanted to use it for the cosplay, and I also want it to be at a wide enough angle so it looks like the old balsac. What's a good method of mounting a big mask like this?

>>10494349
Either a thich elastic strip (possibly with a vecro attachment) or a black headband. You won't be able to avoid using some kind of all-over head attachment. The pieces look too heavy to try spirit gumming some magnets to your temples lol.

Holy shit guys I just farted, this one is really rancid, do you smell it?

>>10494292
Don't limit yourself by looking only for guides on your specific character. Look for resources for any type of foam amor build, masks, LEDS, and etc. KamuiCosplay, PunishedProps, and Odin's Workshop are your best friends now. They also sell how-to books and patterns (either basic or character specific). I highly recommend buying atleast a basic pattern if you don't know where to begin.
Here's some tutorials that should help get you started, but I recommend combing through their accounts for what will suit your work the best:

>is there a good free or low-cost digitizing embroidery software?
>all I can find are >$400 or subscription-based

I use ink/stitch, which is a free extension for Inkscape (also free). It's definitely not gonna give you all the features of a proper digitizing software, you can't just pop a picture in as if it'll be good to go, and it's good to have some prior knowledge of programs like adobe illustrator or inkscape itself, but after watching tutorial videos for it on youtube it's easy enough to use assuming you dont need to do anything too complicated with it.

Nope, and you know we have a Halloween general pinned to the top right?

>>10493953
>No M60 machine gun
Not gonna make it.

>>10493953

How did you make your costume? Literally asking for a friend.

>>10494282
Didn't make it, dropped 400 on all the shit because I'm talentless. Any tips on making it look more war torn and such?
>>10494148
Can't expect god to do all the work.

You're my card matches. All of your sheets were very well-written and I can relate to your style. I'm very excited to create some beautiful cards for you!

>>10494514
Thank you

Hi 2154! I'm one of your other matches, checking in to see if you can let me know your shoulder width! I see you've also emailed Imgur links to another anon of your wardrobe, that would be helpful for me too!
Your style is pretty different to mine so I'm excited to shop for you!

4255, you're my card match! I don't have anything to ask you but I know it's nice to see your number in the thread anyway!

Is anybody else constantly refreshing to see if their number has been posted or...?

>>10494405
Oh wow, it shows that I posted this at 3am. The ID number is meant to be 3159, just like in the quoted post of course.

>>10493900
I would recommend doing maybe a couple of free to cheap shoots to build a current portfolio; post in your local convention groups or forums or whatever you have. The more you build your portfolio, the more you can steadily increase your prices. Those initial cosplayers you work with will be the best bet to get the word of mouth going and build your audience as well.

>>10493900
what >>10493903 said basically. do tfd. a lot of people like that, and it means you and the cosplayer both can do what you want with the photos so it's a win win.

I wish more women did it because the men seem to be creeps

>>10493900
Search around the internet to see what the competition is like. I.e. how good are the other cosplay photog. You will want to be at least above average.

A lot of male photographers in my area have recently been getting called out after years of shitty and creepy behavior. My best advice to everyone here is to just shoot with female photographers

anyone?

Aren't these usually males inside?

I actually like kigurumi but i don't know how to reconcile it with my hatred of scrotes

>>10493845
Next time go to the /jp/ kig thread but it's Iowa (KanColle), Aegis (Persona 3), OC, Javelin (Azure Lane), and Sayaka (Madoka Magica).

>>10493918
Most of them are gay anyways.

>>10493918
Generally, the ones that look artistic and cool (like lulu) are girls or occasionally chill gay guys, and the ones that look creepy and awful (like OP) are scrotes. Pretty easy split.

AP Tartan x Twill JSK.

Recently lost an auction on this and now frantically searching. Probably a long shot, but can pay well.

I have an OnS with a heart apron pattern already but do really want the GLB for the Usakumya one. I tried buying the English one that was supposed to include vol 3 on Amazon and it has like zero patterns and is just awful compared to the original Japanese for me

Does anybody have *any* items from the brand Katie for sale? I don't have a preference as of current, since I really struggle to find places where I can effectively search for second hand Katie items to begin with.

Are there perhaps Japanese sites that can otherwise be recommended? If this last question is OT, please ignore it..! I think I'll try in the larme/misc J-fashion threads as well. Thank you in advance. :)

>>10494334
There are a few issues of vol 3 on eBay right now, but most of them are shipped from japan so after shipping you’re spending over $30. Also to give you a heads up the pattern is just a plush and the hood isn’t detachable, so if you want a functioning bag with a removable hood you’re going to have to tweak it a little.

>I want to go to an anime convention to show off my gains.
Prepare to be ignored since no one cares about gains, only about merch of their husbando/waifu.

This. Could end the thread right here honestly.

>best looking there
I see plenty of /fit/ ppl go to cons all the time. My friend who is 5'11, 200 pounds at 6% body fat goes as Thor all the time.

>>10493717
This, anime cons are pretty normie now so there will be many non-nerds there that you have no chance of looking or acting better than.

>>10493452
Also, doing /fit/ just to try to get women is cringe. Fitness is for improving yourself for yourself first, and everything else that comes with being /fit/ is just happy accidents. You can look like Fabio, but if you're a sperg you're a sperg and will stay a virgin

There are no good free (legal) programs. Its too niche of a need and old ladies making shit for their grandkids and moms on Etsy are 90% of the end user and they're willing to pay for software. You'd be better doing the art and paying somebody to digitize for you.

>>10493409
Thanks for the response. I know the easy route is definitely fishing on Fiverr for digitizing services.

To be clear, I'm familiar with the pricing on PE Design, Embrilliance, Embird, Hatch, etc, and I sort of expected anyone to understand that to mean one of those softwares cracked, not an actually free software, of which there is basically just Ink/Stitch.

>>10493315
I would go to /k/ and ask in the patch autism threads. They have a pretty large market of anime patches.

>>10493078
learn 2 sage. bumping the thread will only feed this faggot's ego.

>>10493066
Well I’m a sweet lolita. Do you have discord?
