/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

Using an opening tab from a can drink as a zip pull.

you need a corset because it helps your waist slim and pushes your boobs up

and before you say "if you are fat don't cosplay as black cat" well the fact is hardly anyone has boobs that big and a waist that small(and the ones that do arent geeks)
so no one would ever cosplay her

>>6816820
Black Cat doesn't have a corset as visible part of her costume. If you must wear one for the shape, wear it UNDER the cat suit. Or get some fucking shape wear.

imo a corset is necessary for most people to create the correct shape, but either choose one without a front busk/cover the busk/do some magic with layered shapewear and try to get it UNDER your outfit.

>>6816808
So many Catwomen also do this. Please stop.

Wear it under your costume ffs.

Chun Li with fucking stripper heels. How hard is it to find boxing/wrestling boots or even knock-off converse?

>>6816838
Heels in general on characters that don't wear heels...

Well, didn't I just get the most relevant captcha of the century.

>>6816838
I always always hated people who dont buy wrestling boots for Chun Li cosplay. I just want to ask them if they even play Street fighter.

>>6816858
Or characters who wear heels, but they're big chunky boot type ones and people wanna wear fucking stripper stilletos. Classy

>>6816997
Ugh, i hate hooker heels when the character doesn't wear them.

The Japanese are particularly bad about that

>>6816808
>that wig
>that mask
ohhh honey nooo

>>6816870
Niiiice!

- every time someone goes for tits instead of craftsmanship
- every time someone wears stripper heels

well that's 60% of all cosplays taken care of.

>>6817202
Hang on while I post images of yaya's entire catalog of post-mega tits costumes

Every fucking Japanese magical girl cosplayer who uses satin and then adds ten pounds of cheap lace and lame trim to make things more ~magical~. Thankfully there are now so many premade Madoka cosplays that it's died down for this series, at least.

Pic semi-related. One of the few that I like, despite it looking a bit princessy.

>>6817581
And here's a better example of what I meant by detail vomit on magical girls. That fucking hat.

I actually really like that Mami cosplay. It's just enough detail to make it interesting. Mami's look is rather drab to begin with.

>>6817676
I like it honestly...

flesh colored bits where flesh should be

prosthetic tits

>>6817676
some of the random flowers on her belt and so could go, but I think it works for Mami

However this lacey looking Kyouko is just so off from her character

>>6817704
See, I just feel like her details don't work for Mami. I understand with the flowers she was trying to match the soul gem, but her bow and hat remind me of those ribbon balls you get to decorate gift boxes. I also dislike how she added both a petticoat peeking out and detailed trim on the bottom of the skirt. Just the trim would have been enough (ignoring her skirt length for now).

>>6817741
Yeah, I dislike most of this group's Madoka costumes (except Sayaka and Homura from what I can see). They go a bit overboard on costumes, makeup and shoop.

>>6816825
this.

It's UNDERWEAR.

If you're gonna be a fat chick who goes "oh i can do that because i have the boobs hurr durr" at least learn to wear the thing properly.

>>6817735
Damn if they had painted/tinted/dyed those that would have been awesome. Shit I'm gonna have to try out prosthetic tits.

5 little words:

Michelle Phan Sailor Scout makeup.

>>6817751
Totally agree with you. They put so much effort in adding unnecessary lace and trims and shinyness, yet they couldn't fix accurate boots for sayaka and Kyouko? Kyoukos boots are so out of place, and really, UGGs for Sayaka?

>>6817770
Haha, wow. Madoka's wig completely distracted me from noticing the UGGs.

About 90% of /co/splay is like this.

Poison Ivies who just pull together their costume from green lingerie without bothering to make sure things match, same for Scarlet Witches, Harley Quinns who pull their own hyper-sexualized "original designs" out of their ass because they can't be bothered to sew her original outfit, Zatannas in corsets that don't even fit and wearing random black blazers instead of the proper tailcoat, Black Canaries and Ms. Marvels in flimsy see-through dance leotards, etc etc

>>6817735
>>6817756
Agreed, if they had tried matching stuff to their skin more it would have actually worked really well! I want know how they did this/where they got them from!

>>6816808
Landwhales need all the help they can get when trying to portraying someone that perfect.
>>6816820
Fatty excuse.

>>6816816
...That doesn't look anything like a tab from a can. Are you high? Otherwise the vendetta is strong with you.

Pic related. Looks pretty accurate to me.

>>6817770
How did I not notice those? Oh goodness!

>>6816993
Literally impossible to find white wrestling boots higher than ankle length (I tried for two MONTHS before making my own), but I agree to the extent of god damn at least buy the knee high white knock-off converse that are everywhere. One cannot kenpo in heels.

>>6818605
Ooooh I watch too much RuPaul's Drag Race and can answer this question!

boobsforqueens.com !!

>>6818660
I've looked for similar for another costume before. They exist, but you have to have them custom made and they clost about $300 before shipping.

>>6818660
>>6818669
http://www.shoeoodles.com/mens-shoes-boots-sneakers/mens-boots/lace-up-front-disorder400-mens-boot

Your best bet is to look into Men's lace up knee boots.I managed to find a pair of boots in my size at a Marshall's for $25. They were black, but nothing white leather paint can't fix.

>>6818660
Really? I googled and found some costume wrestling boots on amazon fairly easily, although they're a bit shiny. And boxing boots look fairly similar and are easy to find in at least calf length...

>>6818666
>boobsforqueens.com
Perfect.

No seriously, you could cosplay like 70% of all female anime characters with these.

>>6818618
It's a hoop. Look carefully. But anyway, the other version the same cosplayer made didn't even have a zip. Even more rage

>>6817735
That loincloth looks like a shredded diaper

Unnecessary or inaccurate footwear can really make or break your cosplay.

Pic related: Tigra + stripper heels = whore in bikini and body paint

>>6817676
This is actually really cute minus the flowers on the belt. I smell vendetta

>>6818713
Heels improve most everything.

>>6818725
false

>>6816820
I would rather not have anyone try to replicate the impossible breasts that comic book 'artists' draw who dont understand anatomy and physics

Just work out and look good. I understand shape wear assists maybe? but a corset is very uncomfortable after a while. .

>>6817751
is sayaka wearing uggs?

>>6818727
This. Times 1000000

>>6816816
that actually is a cool idea

also you obviously have a thing against this girl

>>6816808
Ok so I have seen a lot of Black Canary costumes that literally use a bathing suit? Is that right? Or is it one of those lazy things that people do to skip?

My thing is that wearing a corset UNDER the catsuit just looks bumpy and somehow added girth

even with putting body tights over

also with all that layering its itchy and uncomfortable as fuck

BESIDES isnt the point of wearing the corset supposed to TIGHTEN THE CATSUIT ITSELF?

I mean even if your curvy under most catsuits are not going to cling to your body well

>>6819918
But the point is that it isn't accurate to the character design. If that's an issue than just wear spanx and forgo the corset all together. And what corsets are you wearing that are "itchy"? Oh goodness.

Also also, I've never seen a catsuit that doesn't cling to the body as long as it's made properly. Sounds like you've just have problems with shoddily made items.

>>6818725

No one cares what you think, you fat piece of shit.

>>6816816

...Paul?

>>6819915
Probably laziness. It's one thing to use a swimsuit pattern to make a leotard (I did it with my Elektra costume) and another to wear an actual bloody swimsuit. I'm sure Leg Avenue would have something similar looking as well

>>6819918
Are you high?

As >>6818609 said, fatty excuse.

>>6819893
Hi Ardella

>>6819943
>And what corsets are you wearing that are "itchy"? Oh goodness.
Most corsets get itchy when you wear them for several hours and are naked underneath. http://www.mookychick.co.uk/alternative-fashion/burlesque-vintage-clothing/corset-care-corset-itch.php

>>6816820

Are people calling this fat? Seriously right now?
Go see psychologists. All of you. Do not pass go, do not collect $200.

>>6820314
Really? I waist-train so am constantly wearing corsets and have never had this problem. Maybe I've just gotten used to it and don't notice it anymore since I wear them so often or something.

Still doesn't excuse wearing it on the outside for a character that doesn't wear one on the outside though.

>>6820315
No one called her fat.
Stop projecting.

>>6820315
A wild Tumblr feminazi appears!

>>6820362
>>6820375
>only fatties wear corsets to get the correct shape
>hurr fatty excuses
>that girl is wearing a corset
It was heavily implied. Unless you wanna take back that bullshit about how only landwhales wear corsets, and that it's actually a legit form of shapewear.

>>6820416
Literally no one said that anon.

>>6820454
Literally someone did.
>>6818609

>>6820457
That's not the same as "only fatties wear corsets". All that's saying is that if fatties want to cosplay skinny girls, corsets can be necessary to draw in the waist.

Stop being so sensitive anon.

>>6820467
>you need a corset because it helps your waist slim and pushes your boobs up
>fatty excuse

Oh okay, sorry for being too sensitive. I've seen the light.

>>6820473
>>6820457
>>6820416
>>6820315
Looks like someone got too much sand in her vagina this morning.

Calling it right now: this girl is girl in OP.

>>6820486
Okay and this person (>>6818609) totally doesn't.
>you're the girl in OP
Nope.

>>6820473
>person who gave the first statement said some people would write it off as a fatty excuse
>reply calling it a fatty excuse

Do you not understand how this works? Second anon was trying to be funny.

>>6820502
>Second anon was trying to be funny.
Then I guess it's not very funny. /conversation

>>6820506
Or you take things way too seriously. I don't think you're quite cut out for /cgl/ if *this* makes you sensitive in regards to comments about weight. Might want to head back to your home board.

>>6820506
It's not, but whenever someone like the first anon makes that kind of statement (or an inb4___), someone feels the need to say exactly what they were trying to preempt.

>>6820506
Angry fatty detected

>>6820515
>>6820519
>>6820554
You win guys, seriously. I have seen the error of my ways.

>>6820486
Nice try. OP here and the bigger issue i have with corsets is that people often wear them when the character doesn't. Being a fatty has little to do with that, seeing as both fat and skinny cosplayers often do that

>>6820571
I meant the girl in the original post, like the picture, not you.

>>6820303
whos ardella?

>>6817202
Don't forget the inverse: cosplayers wearing sneakers for a character that wears something formal.

>>6816816
I'm almost 100% certain that's actually one of those little handcuff charms that come on a lot of jewelry nowadays. I had a necklace with those from Icing I think.

>>6818741
they look like boot covers to me.

>>6821271
I don't think so anon, they're shaped like UGGs, not like Sayaka's boots.

>>6818721
Yeah, that anon has a vendetta against professional Korean cosplayers who've had plastic surgery.

Vendetta is something personal against someone you know.

>>6817766
Saw a girl in a sailor moon costume one time, I asked her for a picture and when she turned around I was appalled she used MP's tutorial

>>6820983
Another boobs-over-accuracy cosplay.

>>6821296
..I don't get it, she looks like Jessica Rabbit. It's a good amount of effort regardless of not being an actual cartoon.

>>6821296
Have you seen Yaya's Jessica Rabbit cosplay? This one is nothing compared to that...

>>6821312
Hahahaha, I hope you mean in terms of innacuracy. a PINK dress and PINK shoes? Seriously?

>>6821312
oh christ not even her tits can rescue her here

what in the 9 fucks was she thinking

>>6821296
do you not realize jessica rabbit's canon design is extremely boobtacular

that cosplay looks pretty okay to me

>>6821296
She's pretty cute. I dont see what the actual issue is here? I like her Jessica rabbit. I smell vendetta

>>6821312
You best be trolling
>Dat make up
>those balloon tits

yeah Yaya is just done. She was cute back in 2001/2002, but she's just so gross now

>>6821323

I think they meant in terms of boobs over accuracy, given her cantaloupe tits.

>>6821312
Is that a drag Queen.....?

>>6817581
>>6817676


I think this is what happens when you want to do a costume but:

*don't want to look like the other 95769562125 people doing it
*decide to dress up something that is otherwise plain
*want to challenge yourself because the costume is too damn easy.

It was crazy times when everyone was doing everything Amano. It was impressive in a way and for once insured that you didn't see 8 of the same outfit done the same way. On the other hand some of them looked less cohesive and it looked like a craft pile of glitter and foam threw up on a leotard.

>>6821335
No, that's Yaya. She looks much better when she's out of cosplay.

>>6821335
I wish. Most drag queens have more class than that. She is unfortunately, Yaya Han, a professional attention whore shaped like a tree stump with fake breasts and self-proclaimed her Royal Highness of Cosplay

>>6821356
Pics out of cosplay?

>>6821360
I was gonna say, I'd seen better drag Queens than her, haha

>>6821296
This has actually got to be the best Jessica Rabbit cosplay I've ever seen. Even got the eyebrows right without looking like a drag queen.

>>6821330
Speaking of bad Jessica Rabbit makeup...

>>6821377
Pic is from her FB Page from her Disneyworld trip

>>6821377
And another

>>6821559
>>6821565
Not my type, but she's definitely a lot better looking without that extremely badly done make up on

How old is Yaya anyway?

I really wish that she would tone down her make up. She uses too much. Generally when I cosplay a character I only use eyeshadow if the character actually wears it. Otherwise I try to look fresh-face (which is hard in 30+ degree Celsius and humid as fuck).

I also wish she would stop making costumes around her titties. Like, she's talented...I just want to see her do more of a range. Like, her Camilla cosplay is amazing. Yes, her tits are out, but I want to see more stuff like that!

>>6817735
Guh. I saw these three in person at D*C a couple years ago. I was fucking stoked to see a Melona cosplayer, but then
>Elina has prosthetic tits
>Menace has no underboob
>Melona is totally fucking covered
You cannot imagine my extreme, intense disappointment.

>>6821727
I totally want to do Menace one day...But dat underboob...

>>6821729
You can do it! The answer is fashion tape. Tape 'em in as much as you possibly can. Wear pasties as an additional backup.

>>6821733
I just don't know if I can pull off that level of underboob is all. Like. The costume is fairly simple though her staff, jewellery/crown and chest thing would be more challenging...But I am better at crafting than sewing anyway lol.

One day...Flat stomach first haha.

Power Girl cosplayers who don't sew their bra into their leotard or cut their hole too wide and it shows on the sides... I don't think PG's bra's sticking out in any art I've seen lately. Tacky.

>>6821878
Too-big Power Girl boob windows piss me off too

>>6821689
She looks like an old asian hooker when she's not in cosplay

>>6821883
you want sucky sucky?

>>6821883
I can smell the jelly pouring down your skin
She doesn't look half-bad when she's out of cosplay. She just looks like a big-breasted Asian woman.

>>6821883
I know right
Look at this bitch in a swimsuit
You can practically see the wrinkles

>>6822679
why hello there obvious photoshop, how are you today

>>6822679
> Calls herself professional cosplayer
>Half her prints are herself in swimsuits
> Complains when people only notice her for her tits

And this pic's probably been photoshopped to death as well. Wouldn't look out of place on a porn site.

>>6821296
Unless you're expecting her to have the exact face that Jessica does, I don't see the problem here. Dress is well made, gloves are right color, only possible not-awesome part is her wig (it maybe needs more volume and to be a shade redder?)

>>6822759
have you seen this picture?
>DAT BOOB PADDING

>>6821326
it's worse if you look at it from the side....
>DAT BOOB PADDING

>>6823737
I remember when she did this, it was such a trainwreck. And then she had a bunch of copycat fans try to pull off the same outfit with that same horrible makeup. So much fail...

>>6821312
You need to look at the actual Jessica Rabbit, obviously.

>>6821334
That's how Jessica's tits are.

>>6823737

NOPE.JPG
Too dragqueeny

>>6823756
I did. She didn't look like an old Asian drag queen midget with a bad boob job

>>6823737
Just noticed the lady in the back giving her the side eye omfg

Seriously - people who have to put glitter on EVERYTHING. I shit you not.
Instead of just paint or applique which would look canon and texture-correct they use glitter and glue believing this will make a garment look glamourous.

And using the bedazzler to add crystals also looks cheap and tacky unless it is part of the costume design.
Everytime I see these two things when they shouldn't be there I feel like they should have used party satin and be done with it. I just want to run up to them and set them on fucking fire

I'm not a fan anymore but Hancock is a cool character and the amount of laziness in this cosplay is annoying. She didn't even make Hancock's trademark snake earrings.

>>6823743
>it was such a trainwreck
Except for the fucking enormous group of photogs following her around, yes.

>>6824475
>Implying that the people were following her around because the costume was good and it wasn't about the amount of tits she was showing

Yeah right. Whiteknight harder

>>6824461
p sure that's an alt outfit

>>6825743
p. sherman?

>>6824461
I'm not sure that person is cosplaying Hancock. I mean, her costume is totally different. Just my two pence.

>>6825827
42 wallaby lane
Sydney

>>6825837

She IS cosplaying Boa, she's just one of those "close enough/looks similar" cosplay types.

>>6821312

You're right, because the former was actually pretty good. Yaya looks like Jackie Chan here, and her waist/boobs are so cartoonish (though I guess that's the point) that they're grotesque. It's seriously frightening. Nothing against Yaya's cosplay skills, they're usually decent, but not in this case. At all.

>>6826189
hey now

what did Jackie Chan ever do to you

People cosplaying from Final Fantasy VII is kinda fish in a barrel for pointing out flaws, but the amount of inaccuracies I've seen on Tifas is infuriating:

> Using real hair instead of a wig for her main game outfit when person's real hair is shoulder-length and stringy
> not even bothering with the arm warmers
> using acrylic gloves with buttons for the gloves?? you're not a forever 21 model.
> making the shirt too long or too low-cut. The neckhole comes down to her collarbones, pls stop with the gratuitous cleavage. And there is midriff there so stfu and do some sit-ups b4 the con
> in general people who don't have the proper bust/waist ratio not bothering with bra-stuffing, shapewear or other body wizardy. You don't have to look like a porn star but at least leave your hotel looking like you made effort?
> using a random belt and suspenders you found at Claire's
> wearing shorts
> using uggs, random running shoes or knockoff converse for the boots
> FUCKING. AIRBRUSH. ALL OVER THE FACE.

All told I'm pretty sure there's about 20 good Tifas out there, even less if you only count people who've actually played the game.

>>6821312
I do like that she at least attempted to mimic Jessica's eyeshadow. The sequins on that dress are way too... organized, though. It needs to be glamorous shimmer, and those neat rows are damn distracting.

>>6826355
Key word: attempted

>>6824002
People like Lily?

>>6826666
Yeah, I used that word for a reason.

>>6826189
I think Jackie makes a more attractive woman than Yaya

>>6821323
Jessica wore a pink dress at one point in the movie.

I'm baffled at how Yaya explains herself all the time when her cosplays don't look totally accurate, but you guys never read it.

Such as how she changed the design for Felicia (Darkstalkers) to cover up more.

>>6827967
I'm pretty sure it's the lighting that makes it look pink. But let's not get into this argument again.

>>6826189
don't use the Jackie C as a negative example, not cool. 1/10

>>6827967
Still inaccurate, and I'd rather she make the effort to be accurate to the garments/design itself than the character's tits in many cosplays.

>>6827958
K-k-kawaii...

>>6827967
>changed the design for Felicia (Darkstalkers) to cover up more

Why that's a first

>>6827971
Yaya logic
> Huge lifelong Chun Li
> Original classic costume doesn't show tits
> Makes fan-designed version which shows maximum tits
> "DON'T LOOK AT MY TITS PEOPLE!!"

This is why the fake geek girl debate exists. I doubt hardcore gamer Chun Li fans would make some tit-tastic version of her costume

I grow weary of this thread.

Thus, I post old school adorable Yaya, because every time I post this pic in a thread dealing with Yaya, the thread gets deleted. Go forth, mods, deny the world the adorableness of old school titless Yaya. It is your duty.

>>6827970

>>6826336
My personal favourite is FFVII Tifa's wearing a red ribbon around their arm.

>>6828356
>FFVII Tifa
Why would a non-advent children tifa cosplayer do that.

>>6828413
I have absolutely no idea.

>>6828259
Hey this is going to blow your mind.

Do the same thing with her hair.

They're obviously different wigs? Right? yeah totally.

No.

I do think that there is a sparkly dress and a not-sparkly dress, but they are both red.

>>6828487
Huh. Also goes for gloves too I guess.
Periwinkle gloves vs Purple gloves though they are probably meant to be the same.

Never thought of it that way.

>>6828487
I don't know if this amounts to anything, but my grandfather owned an autographed cel of Jessica from the Who Framed Roger Rabbit movie. Her dress was sparkly and red.

I think in the movie, they appear to be different colors because of the lighting. But, I really don't know, so sage.

>>6828356
That makes no sense...

Yeah, it's the lighting. Remember that limited wardrobe is common for cartoons, especially back in the day.

>>6828487
No. I know my colors. That is hot pink. And the "logic" you used when comparing her hair color is just ridiculous. Don't tell me it's the lighting either- if the dress doesn't look hot pink under similar light irl, then it's obviously the wrong color.
And what color would it be if it wasn't under a spotlight?

Actually it's pretty likely that it's the same dress. Have you ever seen something covered in that much glitter under the old fashioned stage lights? The lighting and atmosphere was designed to highlight the people on stage and make things look brighter.

Also from an animation/artistic standpoint, the brightness of Jessica while on stage was likely intended to emphasize her presence and roll. Not saying it doesn't look pink, but I'd also like to point out the massive amount of Jessica Rabbit merch over the years that has been red dress/shoes, sparkly or matte.

At this point I give no fucks if Yaya decided to go with the stage look, it just irks me when people defend their reasoning as if there's no other logical argument as to why they might be incorrect.

>>6828598
I think most people associate hot pink with magenta these days - think Barbie. You might have to throw in the towel on this one and go with her dress being light red.

>>6828259
>>6828487
>>6828497
Guiz explain this to me using the difference in lip color too.

I'm pretty shit with GIS but red sequins can have pink highlights, note the creases

>>6828672
>less shitty example

>>6828674
That one's actually pink,dipshit

>>6828598
Since you know your colours so well, let me break this down for you.

Just FYI: I worked on the "special lighting" color schemes for Skull Girls. I made colour pallets for the same characters wearing the same clothes but in different lighting which can dramatically change everything. Not so much here, this is pretty basic stuff.

Her hair, gloves and skin color all tell me that this is the same color pallet and her "normal" scheme but under special lighting.

Questions?

>>6828663
The lips in her sparkle dress are the same color as the dress.

The lips in her normal dress, are the same color as the dress.

To me that says it's again just the lighting, but others could see it as her having a different shade of lipstick. That's understandable.

Now her having a different hair and skin color? not so much.

>>6828694

Sage for off-topic, but holy shit, I never realized how much she resembles one of Robert Liefeld's drawings.

>>6828710
Don't be silly, her hands are right there.

>>6828721

>>6828726
Really wanted this to be a gif.

>>6828763

>>6828784

I needed more Frank in my life.

>>6828784
Well played. Thank you for the orgasm.

>>6828784
this made my night

>>6828192
she didn't change it to "cover up more", she had to make the area covering the breasts larger, because she has larger breasts than the character. The amount of fabric is proportional to the size of the breasts. She's just as scantily clad as the character, but if she had the same amount of fabric covering her tits as the character, I doubt they'd be able to cover her nipples. She was just trying to avoid a nip slip, not look more modest.

>>6828810
>She was just trying to avoid a nip slip, not look more modest.
That's... the same thing.

And as for being the same... not really? Felicia has pretty big breasts, Yaya's are only a little bigger. Felicia's fur strips only reach to the nipple and are pretty thin (depends on the art you reference, but generally it's about an inch, inch and a half wide). Same deal with the fur full panties because they don't even bother trying to mimic how the fur comes up over the crotch, stops, then the top wraps around her hips and either stops at or connects to her tail, bare-ass (like Cammy).

A full bra and panty like so many people do really does look off, it's one of my biggest pet peeves of Felicia cosplayers. It could be done so much better with a creatively cut bodysuit.

>>6828694
Fucking thank you anon, I don't know how often I see shit like this where there's obvious atmospheric lighting changes and people claim the outfits a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT. It's called mood lighting, you guys. It's used to evoke emotions ques in art.
Not to mention artistic accents on shit like concept/promotional art that people then try to say are in the shows or games when it clearly isn't.

Stripper heels are fucking amazing on every costume.


>women who aren't attractive complain about attractive women wearing attractive things ITT

>>6828694
you're effing brilliant anon. I honestly don't really understand the color comparison to the fullest extent, but I see that they are all the same shades of red.

>>6828785
>>6828799
>>6828809

>>6828694
You're fucking brilliant anon. I honestly though that there were TWO different dresses, until you showed the skin comparison.

The pink skin versus the brown-ish skin shows that there IS a mood/colored light on Jessica. I see now....

>>6828839
GOOD GODDAMN. Bless your light.

>>6828833
Keep telling yourself that

>>6828694
The sparkles in that second picture are totally nipples. Can't believe I didn't see it until now.

>>6828841
I still think that a dress and wig in the right colour would still look horrible on Yaya.. Jessica Rabbit is tall, lean and busty, not built like an old Asian midget drag queen

>>6822679
Yaya's fanboys have been in this thread sibce the begging

jyst give up already

>>6829145
Are you having a stroke? Do I need to call for help?

>>6822679
Yeah right. Real-life lighting, zero photoshop, what do you think about your goddess now?

>>6830091
I don't like Yaya but those bright ass convention lights hardly make anyone look good, god knows I've seen more than a few pics of myself under that lighting and wanted to scream.

>>6830095
hint: you're ugly too.

If you have to rely on particular lights and angles to look good then you don't actually look good. Somebody who is actually good looking is going to look good even if you're taking a mugshot.

>>6830114
So you're saying you've never taken a bad photo ever?

I'm saying that lighting is unflattering on majority of people, that's all.

>>6830095
Understood, but fact of the matter is, Yaya's age is starting to show and her fanboys continue to be fooled by her photoshopped-to-death bikini model prints. Her tits also look rectangular here

>>6830220
Yes, I agree with you that her age is definitely starting to show. She does it to herself though with how much makeup she's caking on, if she'd lighten up on the lipstick and eye makeup she'd look much younger and fresher and not so drag queen.

If any of her fanboys saw what that kind of makeup looks like in real life I don't think they'd like it so much, it always looks like shit.

>>6830091
She doesn't look THAT bad...I mean, not amazing, but not as bad as you're trying to make out. Like >>6830249 said, she needs to tone down her make up and go for a fresher look so her age isn't as obvious.

>>6821312
I think it's fairly accurate?
The problem with making 100% accurate cosplays is that a lot of the time the artist has no concept of garment construction.

Jessica Rabbit has huge boobs, but her dress is almost totally backless and strapless.

>>6830998
>Jessica Rabbit has huge boobs, but her dress is almost totally backless and strapless.
For real, bitch is defying gravity more than Elphaba.

>>6830998
Ugh, the extra obvious, perfectly placed trim kills the look. Good example of a dress with too much back, though.

>>6830998
Why does she look like she has buck teeth in this pic?

>>6830249
It's like people with bad acne or skin problems caking on the makeup. It's just going to look bumpy, like painting over a wall with a rough surface. Using too much foundation on wrinkled skin is not flattering. She's gotta start looking into more age-appropriate makeup or she'll start looking like a washed up porn star or drag queen

>>6831037
She had invisible straps holding everything up. Obviously they've been photoshopped out

>>6827967
I don't understand her recent Fiora cosplay. It doesn't look anything like any of Fioras designs, unless I am missing something.

>>6824002
>>6826870
Kill them all

>>6831257
Thiiiiiiiiiis. You just can't get rid of it!

>>6831261
faggot

>>6831235
Heard she was going all crazy trying to defend her choice in design when people were calling her out on how inaccurate her costume was. Probably stemming from the fact that she doesn't play the game or know/care about the character all all. She's starting to become more boobs than human these days.

>>6831235
>>6831313
The Chinese official art is significantly more elaborate, which looks pretty much like the version of Nightraven Fiora. I'm not sure what you guys are bitching about.

>>6831459
The person with the most amount of butthurt over the whole situation was probably Yaya

>>6831313
Where are the receipts on this? I want to see her costume and shit fit.

>>6832780
No idea about where to find her shit fits, but here is the costume

>>6831235
Looks a lot like this...

>>6833105
I don't get it, are people mad that she added extra detail?

>>6833055
That costume looks amazing.

>>6833055
It looks like a mix between the two. Or the Chinese one with maybe a few extra embellishments. I don't see anything wrong with it.

>>6821559
>>6821565
both much photoshoppage

>>6833165
As usual

>>6821524
EVEN HERE EYEBROWS HAVE EYEBROWS

>>6833347
Even Homer Simpson's makeup gun on 'whore' looks better than that. She's got a whole tutorial on how to do that makeup, by the way.

>>6833429
i love that episode so fucking much

"Daaad,i dont think women want to be shot in the face"

>>6833444
"Women will like what I tell them to like"

Yaya also made a non-full body suit version of Scarlet Witch as well. She deliberately chose not to have the top bit of the body suit. Coincidence? Methinks not

also, nobody ever gets the headpiece right. Nobody

>>6826336

I wish her VA cosplayed her

>>6834470
>Everybody stop talking about my tits
>Check out how I make every costume solely focus on my tits
>Hey everbody shut up I'm a real person you know I'm not just a big pair of tits
>Wait I can't show off my hilariously oversized tits in this costume, better change the design fundamentally to get them out.

>>6834470
She looks so pretty here, she should totally get her hair cut so it falls in a similar way to this headgear, no really.

I'm glad people share my pet peeves.
I just don't get how people spend a month on a costume. STARING at reference pictures. And they manage to be like, "oh well, this is how the REAL so and so would do it anyways!".

I can understand in certain situations when something is just not possible outside of anime. But most of the time it's things that are totally easy.

>>6818727
>waaah corsets are uncomfortable
plenty of women can wear them for hours on end, just because you are too much of a pussy doesn't mean the rest of us should forgo them.

>>6834782
They shouldn't be that bad if you make it to fit your measurements or have it custom made. But people would rather buy one online.

>>6834782
have fun tangling up your organs

>>6834799
That is a huge exaggeration. Wearing a corset for a couple hours a few times a year isn't going to shit long term.
You are just a cry baby

Danaerys, season 3 Astapor dress.

I don't understand why this looks so shitty when her other stuff looks great.

>>6834812
here is what the dress is supposed to look like

>>6834470
I just looked up Scarlet Witch because I'm not familar with her and I see lots of art that shows her without the top pieces of the suit...There is even a Sideshow Collectible figure of her without the top part

>>6834986
You are correct. I'm all for calling Yaya out when she actually fucks up but this isn't one of those times. I really wish you guys would research before you make snarky remarks that make you look stupid.

>>6834812
damn, everything about this is off, from the fabric to the tailoring. it looks like she used shitty joanne's curtain fabric for the dress too. sad, it could have been good had she tried more.

I'm going to throw something out there and see what people think: What about making changes to a costume to make it more modest? Like, lets say you REALLY like a character and their design, but you're a little dubious about doing their design in real life (especially since physics work differently in anime). Do you think that is okay, or just as bad as people who modify stuff so its "sexy"?

>>6835055
nah, i think it's okay to modify it either way. other people might point out that it's made wrong or differently, but if it's been done to make the costume more modest you're less likely to get people screaming you're a slutbag who just wants to show off her titties.

if you're not comfortable showing as much skin as the character, why not just see if they have an equivelant outfit that's more covered, or one that you like just as much?

>>6835055
I get a lot of shit for making certain revealing cosplays more modest, but personally it makes me feel more comfortable in public. I still love and support the character, but dressing like a stripper is a bit intimidating for less confident people.
I hate the argument "if you're not willing to cosplay the character accurately, then don't cosplay her!" Fuck that, if you love a character, then I think it's fine to cosplay them however you like.

>>6835075
Well, I would do the cosplay as is. But I shared that I wanted to do, and people didn't seem to like that idea. Plus I worry about my family seeing, or a potential employer stalking the internet to find out about me and seeing me in a very revealing costume.

And realistically, I am unsure if I can pull it off. For reference, what I want to do is Menace from Queen's Blade. I like a lot of the characters/their designs and stuff; but obviously just wearing underwear is a something they doesn't quite work in real life lol.
I know there is another version of Menace that has her in an outfit with more coverage, and even a version where has a matching bikini to her underwear on. I just like the original design more and basically want to cover up my lower half more is all.

>>6835115
Thanks anon. That's how I feel, but seeing people bitch on threads like this makes me wonder if it's actually okay to change a design to make it more modest. Sometimes some things are not going to work. Or you're worried about how people are going to respond to what you have on. I've often made skirts a bit longer and no one seems to care.

>>6835143
It really goes down to how you alter it for modesty's sake. There was a girl here last year talking about her modest cosplays. She did Dead Master, but with pants instead of capris and it looked pretty bad because of how wide the pant legs were. If she'd gone with leggings or fitted pants, it would have been a different story. She also had a cardboard scythe and shitty wig, and I'm of the opinion that if you're going to start altering things for modesty's sake, everything else has to be perfect.

Basically if you've put thought into your alterations past "hey boys, look at me," people shouldn't mind at all. Some designs just aren't flattering IRL.

>>6817581
i like the madoka, but the mami is a little too far.

>>6835155
I wouldn't do anything like that. Anything I would do would keep to the character's overall design, it would have to match/look like that's what their original design could be.

>>6835055
As long as you're not just throwing a tee-shirt on underneath. I have no issue with costumes that are thoughtfully altered. Animators tend to have no regard for actual clothing construction, so alterations are usually necessary anyways.

>>6828694
Quesiton:
Show me a material that sparkles under a spotlight/moodlight/whateverspeciallight(notblacklight) that doesn't reflect or sparkle or shine IN ANY WAY under standard lighting.

Her dress for the rest of the movie is totally matte, regardless of lighting.

Different dress.

>>6835055
People ALWAYS bitch when someone cosplays Sailor Moon or one of the senshi with the skirt too long. I don't have a problem with it, because IRL no one has legs like that, but it's always one of the first things I see in critiques for Sailor Moon cosplays. No one cares about whether you want to be more modest or not, it's all about accuracy.

I say, cosplay for yourself. /cgl/ will always have something to bitch about.

>>6835173
>>6835187
If I posted pictures of concepts I came up with would it help?

>>6835055
It depends on what kind of modification it is. I plan on making a Mortal Kombat 9 Kitana costume soon, and I want to make short shorts instead of her original thong-back shorts. A longer skirt on a sailor scout costume is fine as well, as long as it's still above the knee, I think.

>>6835496
Maybe start a new thread so you don't derail this thread. I'm sure some anons will have some input.

>>6835178
We went over this. It's two different dresses. One is sparkly, one isn't. They are both red. Are we done now?

>>6835937
So Yaya got the sparkles right but the colour wrong. End of story.

She still would have looked like an ugly drag queen though

>>6833055
Worbla looks like such shit always.

>>6833124
Aww, that's just because you don't follow the armor-making side of cosplaying. It's actually shitty.
You'll learn someday.

>>6837478
Not that anon but instead of a bitchy remark could you point out what about it is so shitty?

It looks wonderful to me but I don't know that much about making armour.

>>6837478
No, it actually looks really well-made, alterations aside...

>>6837484
>what about it is so shitty?
It's foam over fabric stretched over cardboard. Probably took all of about 10 minutes per piece.

>>6837581
The details look pretty clean, everything seems pretty well proportioned..I'll admit I'm not fond of the paint job on the details but it all looks pretty solid. Telling me what it's made of isn't really telling me why it's shitty, craft foam and cardboard can look good and I think this armor showcases that.

I'm seriously not trying to whiteknight here but could you explain further?

>>6837641
Also I will say that I think the lighting is making it look more impressive and that maybe it doesn't look this nice real life but I really think this is a far cry from shitty.

I am interested in knowing why you think it is though, I really don't know much about armor, there's probably stuff I'm not seeing or don't understand.

>>6837385
I think people were arguing more about the color of Jessica's dress and kind of forgot and Yaya.

Cosplayer in OP was pregnant when that was taken if memory serves. I think that might explain the corset and grossness of it all?

>>6838379
Not sure if pregnant or just fat. One of the things which keep me up at night

>>6817735
I don't get why people use an ugly skin cloloured bra, when she has a canon bikini top to wear.

>>6838379
>>6838397
>Pregnant
>Force self in to body-shape-altering cosplay
I don't want to alarm anyone, but I think that might hurt the baby.

>>6838379
Was her face and ass also pregnant?

>>6838887
I don't see how they could reasonably avoid it...

>>6838887
I don't think you know how pregnancy works.

>>6838887
people do know you gain weight in more than just your stomach when you get pregnant, right?

>>6838379
>corset
>while pregnant
what an idiot, that's horrible for your baby.

>>6839102
Depends how far along she is. You put on weight before the baby's even the size of your thumb.

>>6838379
makes sense. your tits get huge when you're pregnant. might as well while they're there i guess?

>>6839111
>depends on how far along.
I guess so.
Never been prenant before but wearing a corset seems like it's right up there with smoking and drinking, maybe you can get away with it early on...but why take that risk? Seems pretty stupid to me.

>>6839158
uh there's like 6 layers of muscle do go through there. not up there with smmoking and drinking. try again later, maybe when you've had kids and you can tell people how to baby

This. Everything about it. Terrible. The worst thing is that this costume landed her all this paid work. I think that's card paper stuck to the front of it.

Submit is not browse. Relevant pic.

>>6839164
>being that angry
I'm not trying to tell anyone how to have a baby, just saying that trying to wear a corset when your pregnant doesn't seem like a great idea to me. In fact, it seems downright hazardous to your baby's health.
Personally, I would never do it.

>>6839175
Holy shit. It's paper.

>>6839158
The Victorian did it!

>>6839206
*Victorians

>>6839178
just to make sure, you aren't thinking of tight-lacing, right?

>>6839206
>>6839218
After doing some research, I found that they actually make corsets that are specifically for pregnant women, although I can't imagine that would be very comfortable.
I also found that during the first trimester, it's generally okay to wear a moderately tight corset. Probably not tight-laced, but still taking a few inches off the waist line.

>>6839102

After 5 minutes of research it seems you can wear a corset during the 1st trimester of pregnancy, so long as it's good quality. Like crunchs and mild abdominal exercise it should not harm the baby, however it isn't recommended.

What you can wear is a maternity corset, like women wore in the Victorian era. It allows the belly to grow but also offers back support like belly bands do today.

>TD;DR She's probably not harming the baby, you can wear a corset while pregnant, but it should probably be a maternity corset.

>>6837581
I'm pretty sure she used Worbla to make it. There's plenty of progress pics if you looked.

>>6839236
already figured that out, but thanks
this is me >>6839234

>>6839246

I'm glad you all use google.

>>6833055
Well, it definitely makes her hips/legs look good.

Her tits still look silly though.

>>6839305
I think her tits never look not silly

Does yaya's 'art nouveau' Chun Li count? Cos i really don't understand why she didn't just make Chun Li's classic costume when she's such a 'huge fan'

>>6842879

not a big yaya fan but what you are saying is any non standard costume is an unnecessary alteration.

>>6835187
The thing about long Sailor Moon skirts is that they throw off the proportions for the rest of the costume. It just looks BAD. Short and with that slight V shape is actually very flattering and makes your legs look longer. If the hemline absolutely must be a bit longer, I'd say drop the waistline a bit so the skirt starts lower down, but keep the skirt the right length.

>>6842879
Her sleeves look really shit. Why is her armpit hanging out? It looks like she's wearing an unfinished sleeve

>>6839175
Ugh...I hate her so much, she's Australian and acts like some kind of cosplay embassador for us, despite having like two costumes (this atrocity) and new Lara Craft one. She doesn't make anything and basically just self-promotes as some model or whatever. I can't really work out her angle.

>>6839206
>>6839210
>>6839234
>>6839236
Because there definitely isn't a theory/link that the reason stillbirth and death via childbirth was so rampant back then was because woman compressed their insides all day erryday.

>>6843005
It definitely didn't have to do with their lack of knowledge of germs and sterile conditions.

Gotta be those corsets.

>>6843058
bro, stillbirths are when the babby dies inside the womb, that has nothing to do with giving birth.

>>6842879
Probably because she couldn't attention whore as much with it. All the other Chun Li's have easily taken the spotlight, even girls in shitty Halloween costume versions.

>>6839175
I fucking HATE when chicks do this. I went to pax and literally every chick in an AssCreed cosplay was like this.

>>6843002
Your butthurt is showing.

>>6834799

Yeah, except a corset is not something of one set size you just put on. Its something you put on AND THEN TIGHTEN BEFORE TYING IT.

If you cant figure out youre not supposed to tighten it until your squeezing your lungs out your anus then mankind has only succeeded by your loss.

>>6817807
You rang?

>>6817676
its not the hat in and of itself, her hair is unbalanced and the hat is exagerating it, if she flattened it on that side a bit (or fluffed up the other) it mightnt look so off

>>6843153
Agreed. Original costume does not show any cleavage...and we all know Yaya can't have that, right?

>>6844016
The bodice looks like it decomposed on her
