Furries are a subculture whose members have an interest in anthropomorphic animal characters. While some furries do engage in cosplay, it is important to note that not all furries participate in this activity, and being a furry does not necessarily imply being involved in cosplay.

Cosplay, short for "costume play," refers to the practice of dressing up as a character from a work of fiction, such as a video game, anime, or comic book. Cosplayers often meticulously recreate the appearance of the character they are portraying, including their clothing, accessories, and sometimes even their mannerisms.

On the other hand, being a furry generally involves having an affinity for anthropomorphic animal characters and may include creating and/or adopting a furry persona, often referred to as a fursona. Many furries express their interest through various means, such as artwork, writing, online communities, conventions, and even fursuiting. Fursuiting involves wearing costumes that represent their fursonas, often in the form of full-body animal suits.

While there may be some overlap between furries and cosplayers, it is important to recognize that they are distinct interests and communities. Furries primarily focus on anthropomorphic animal characters and may engage in a variety of activities beyond cosplay to express their love for the furry fandom.

The first time cosplay as a hobby turned to softcore porn was when two or more people doing cosplay gathered in same place. Whether you like it or not, cosplay is look focused craft, and any comparasion creates a hierarchial competetion. Not to mention that as female focused hobby, look competition is just inevitable - you can't seperate without mental gymnastics the end result from looks advantage. Well, you can of course do the ala carte autism like in high end food where deconstruct the components and skill to make them, but this is world of formalized competition and not the world everyone else lives.

If you want to know the reason why you or anyone else is now particularly aware of cosplay as softcore porn, it's simply the moment of when beforemention looks-game turned to large scale. In other words, birth of social media, tumblr, onlyfans and larger and larger cons that resulted in larger audiences of especially normies. Second and final nail to the coffin is monetization that was possible due to the expanded audiences eg simps and normies, though whoring is and always been female primary occupation.

The only place where cosplay is just cosplay of outfits is in your bedroom, alone making those costumes. Step in front of mirror and imagine yourself seen, and the softcore pornsona steps out.

As Scifi conventions gained more mainstream attention it also garnered negative attention and venues and cons started limiting public nudity. This also happend to cons with a fetish community and while Scifi worked to become more mainstream the fetish people worked to become more underground.

It's fucking comic con, just go up to people and complement their cosplay, even if it's shitty ones straight off Aliexpress. If you don't know what show it's from, ask what show it's from. If you do talk about the show. Single/pairs of girls are best, but groups are also fine because of the context, just don't be creepy and hyper-fixate.

If there's a group meet then ask if they're going to it. Once the convo is going don't overstay your welcome unless she's really into it and asks you to stay. Obviously, before you leave ask for socials/if they hang out later.

I can't tell if you people are genuinely retarded or if I'm just an unaware chad even though my body count is still in the single digits.

Anyone ever been to one? My experience:

Me and two friends were hype for ColossalCon. Before we even got to the convention center, a Discord bud had been planning an afterparty. He wanted it to be some wild adult role-play thing or w/e.

The day finally arrives and we walk into the con. Wall to wall cosplayers in costumes, typical costhots, you know the deal.

After slogging around main floor and wrapping up the first day we make our way to his hotel penthouse suite where he's hosting the afterparty. My buddy is still in full costume and welcomes us with drinks. He points us to another closed room in the suite and winks.

Inside there were about a dozen people all in full cosplay gear with Moe Shop blasting in the background. In the middle of the room was a mattress with some blindfolded girl in a Ganyu costume getting railed by some dude dressed up as Ed from FMA. Think we had arrived a little early because most people were still just eyeing the scene and nervously chatting in an awkward semi-circle around the two.

After awhile people start to get buzzed and some guy starts yelling "go for the horns!" and soon everyone's shouting "HORNS, HORNS" lol. Ed guy then reaches over and grabs her by her kinda shitty 3D printed horns and starts going to pound town doggy style. They get ripped off (lol) but she's too horny to notice and then another guy joins in and shoves his cock in her mouth. Since she's blindfolded a bunch of other guys started to get the same idea and soon multiple guys were rotating out of her holes while she was still in doggy.

Pretty sure some guys finished in her but it was too dark to tell. Learned afterwards that apparently someone swiped her regular clothes and shoes so she had to Uber back to her hotel as cum covered Ganyu lmao

Kinda left the con feeling like we'd witnessed peak degen weeb. 10/10 would repeat.

I recently ordered a mask, pic related, which looks great but doesn't fit my face super well. I'm been experimenting with different placements for padding to make it comfortable to wear but its always either squashing my nose or the sides are floating well away from my head.

The mask is made of resin (~2 mm thick), but the store I bought it from doesn't list exactly what kind. What are the odds that I can reshape the mask a bit with some heat? Is there a best practice for doing this (heat gun, boiling water, hair dryer, etc)? Or is this a terrible idea?

I feel like if I can 'bend' the mask a bit so its a bit more triangular than flat that will both bring in the sides to fit my head and create some extra room in the front for my nose.

Bad idea? Good idea? How do?

One quote I got is 1k.. seems like a fuck ton, maybe an investment I'd be willing to make for a very high quality cosplay. Swords would be an additional 500.
Not sure if that's a reasonable price or not for just the outfit, I would prefer an outfit with little polyster but would definitely use polyster if it took off some of the price.
New to commissioning cosplays so just looking for some idea of what is overpriced and what isn't.

>> No.10857463

>>10857460
Hmmmm. Yeah, unfortunately that's a pretty complex looking outfit to make. If you want it to look good, $1000 probably is in the ballpark for something custom made. I don't know where you are commissioning from, but when it comes to quality you get what you pay for. You don't want to pay $400 for something and when it arrives it looks like you got it from spirit of halloween, you know?

Possible option is to break up the commission into smaller parts and shop around with different sellers rather than doing it all in one place. That much work doing all by one person is a lot to ask, because its a lot of different kinds of work. But, for example, if you order JUST the dress + hat from one seller and the arm pieces from another, and buy your own black leotard? That gets you like 80% of the way there, easily enough to be a recognizeable and functional costume, and you get your cloth work done from someone who specializes in that and your armor work done from someone who specializes in that, without having to find one person who does everything. This might mean that you choose to forgo certain pieces on your first outing, like the legs, but you can buy those later and split your costs over time rather than doing them all at once.

I can't promise that doing that will save you any money, splitting your work to different places might be more expensive. But its an option I would explore.

You idiot, the methods don't change whether you're using a cheap wig or expensive one. And you can get lacefronts on Aliexpress, it's a type of wig not a brand or mark of quality. What you meant to say was synthetic vs human hair or cheap fibers vs higher quality like kaneklon. Also, the advice would be the same even if you're using your own hair. This shows how little you know and yet how loudly you bitch. I hope you go bald.
