moonflowerlights Sansa wedding dress progress makes me wanna cry tears of joy

>>7039263
Personally I have seen far more good than bad

I think it has more to do with the quality of the costumes in the show. It's easier to look better in a costume with good detail and design.

>>7039293
That's the dumbest fucking thing I've ever heard.

>>7039293
...what?
The quality of the costumes in the show doesn't mean shit if cosplayers don't make the costumes right.

>>7039293
wat

>>7039321
It seriously took me a second to realize that wasn't a screen shot

Funny that you posted an (actually good) Melisandre because she's usually the character who attracts the worst cosplayers. Women like to slap on whatever red stuff they own and say it's a Melisandre cosplay.

Pic (one of many possible) related

You're posting about amazing Otakon GoT people and you didn't post Actual Jaime Lannister?

...I may or may not stalk the Facebook page for his cosplay group

>tfw you will never see Aerys cosplayed

>>7039402
that's like walking spoilers but a great costume

>>7039456

I was walking around behind their group and saw everyone and could figure most of the characters out from the back of their costumes, but not him. But when he fucking turned to look behind him it looked so much like the actor that I went up and I was like "I just want you to know that it genuinely startled me how similar you look" and he laughed and thanked me, then Jon Snow was like "Sure is getting steamy in here, might gotta go soon"

i almost cried

>>7039421

Its shit like this that makes me want to perfect my Melisandre costume even more. Darting on the dress and a better mount for the battery for the LED in the gem of the necklace still left...

>>7039457
More like I will never see a perfect (of any?) Rhaegar cosplay.

Best Targ, perfect husbando (a long as yiu aren't s dornish).

AX also kept it classy. Never thought I'd see someone cosplay Brienne.

>>7039263
I bet part of it is that the average age of GoT cosplayers is higher

I don't know where to find a better picture but there were also these two there.

>>7039552
>>7039555
Also there were like, a zillion Dany cosplayers, but (as almost always) they were meh-tier.

>>7039552
Are those car mats painted gold?

>>7039553
That does help I think.

>>7039552
A beauty!

>>7039555

Wow, I took a picture of them at that exact moment.
Apologies in advance because I never resized my AX photos.

>>7039573

Hey, did you happen to capture the Jon Snow and Melisandre cosplayers who were there? Not that our costumes would be good enough for this thread, but I'd like to have the pictures nonetheless...

>>7039573
I was excited until I clicked to enlarge.
The faces killed it for me.

>>7039536
LED in the gem? I dunno, that sounds like it'd look tacky to me

>>7039577

I sadly didn't, sorry.
I only saw those guys because I was passing them on my way out of the convention center. They were the only GoT cosplayers I saw that weren't Dany all weekend.

>>7039582
Its very diffuse, so its an incredibly soft glow. It can also be set to pulse. If it ends up looking terrible I'll just unplug it; you can't see the LED anyway, especially if its unlit (its cast in a rough red acrylic "stone").

>>7039582

I was thinking about making an LED gem too... is there a kind of tutorial for this?

>>7039585
Fair enough, figured I'd ask. I was incredibly surprised by just how many Danys there were, like.. there were as many Danys as there were other GoT players combined, by my count.

>>7039579
>pink lipstick
>no wig cap
>WTF is that fabric
>completely inaccurate hair color

>>7039589
Uh, just follow a basic molding/casting tutorial and embed a LED with the leads sticking out. Then look up any basic LED tutorial (you'll need a battery, probably an appropriate resistor, and some very thin wire if you intend to run the battery pack behind the lattice of the necklace). Its all about the geometry; the electronics are _very_ simple. Unfortunately, I've done so much EE-ish shit I sort of just know and don't know any tutorials directly, sorry.

>>7039592

Hair color for her is really hard because HBO insists on using stupidly dark filters for almost every scene she's in. Not to mention the book's description is contradictory to the show.

>>7039598
>Jorahwetdream.jpg

>>7039586
Ah, I see. Sounds good then.

>>7039590
There are always a ton of Danys

>>7039598
That Ser Jorah is one hell of a pimp.

>>7039594

Thanks, I guess I'll google some more, I'm totally not electronically minded. I can cast a gem no problem, I don't understand LEDs well at all.

>>7039592
>>7039596

Actually more often then not they lighten her hair.

>>7039263
Dany is OP's pic would be perfect is she covered her tattoos

>>7039286
Seven hells that's amazing

>>7039321
Dat Hound

>>7039579
I wouldn't have known she was cosplaying if not for the necklace and this being a Gae of Thrones thread. I think you have to sell Mel in your body language in face as much as in the costume.

>>7039598
This picture makes me happy. I love the variety too.

>>7039579
>>7039592

I have to say I actually really like the fabric. Melisandre in the show has a lot of geometric pattens and textures in her fabrics/costumes.

>>7039611

Start here for a basic primer: https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/light-emitting-diodes-leds/leds-without-math

Also sparkfun will have all the parts you need (battery, battery mount, resistor, LED). I'd possibly suggest the high-power LEDs because if you fuck up and put in the wrong/no resistor you won't blow it up (well, the failure isn't quite that dramatic, it'll just burn out). That said, long-term you want a very low current LED otherwise it could heat up and mess with your casting.

>>7039619

You're my hero, anon. Thank you. I swear I did google this, but I was so overwhelmed...

>>7039635
2/10

>>7039629

If you're crafty you can _probably_ even get away without soldering, but generally I'd suggest putting some sort of slip-fit connector (using a female header pin [you can search for this on sparkfun] to connect to the LED's terminals) and soldering to the connector, such that if you need to, you can 'unplug' the battery pack and leave the necklace unaltered (this is the setup I have).

Also if you want to put the battery/electronics into your dress rather than your necklace, look into the lilypad line of products. Its silver conductive thread + sewable pads rather than soldering, which isn't great for long connections (resistance per length is too high), but great for short connections that can be hidden in/under clothes.

>Is the GOT fandom good
Go spend a couple minutes in /got/ and find out.

Anyway Im trying to decide if I wanna do Ygritte, Margaery or Lyanna.

Dany is literally only favored by plebs and tumblr, thats why there's so many of them. Fuck Im acting like Im in /got/ now, time to go back to my containment area.

Oh, first though. Has anyone done Jorah well? He's my husbando.

Dat Jaime at Otakon was insanely good. When I first saw him I looked at him for a minute from the front from far away and was all "Is that Jaime?" and then saw him walk away and thought "oh yes, hate to see you go but how I love to watch you walk away"

>>7039635
I feel like I'm gonna go to jail just looking at them

>>7039648
I'd suggest picking based on the weather. Ygritte is a cool-weather costume no matter how light you build it, and inversely Margaery is a warm-weather costume. Lyanna... is only described in the book and not yet in the show IIRC, so I'd suggest against her just because she isn't detailed as well as would be ideal.

>>7039635
Well that Margaery certainly is dressed like a harlot, I can say that about it at least.

>>7039263
Can I just say that these people (Cripples, Bastards and Crazy Cosplayers) are super nice? I've met enough talented 20-something cosplayers who treat younger people like crap, but when I had questions they were really helpful and told me all about how they made stuff and even offered to friend me on facebook to help with my costume even though I wanted to be Dany too.

>>7039635
>Day one of Chicago Comic Con 2013, my little sister as Sansa (everyone loved her!)

I bet.

>>7039656
Well that's the thing though, Lyanna is never going to be in the show most likely (Unless there's some flashback "promise me, Ned" scene when they reveal she's Jons mother) but I really love seeing book cosplays like Rhaegar >>7039489

And yeah, very true about the temperatures! Im thinking about it for this winter so probably Ygritte it is.

>>7039660
She's probably 13. So, pretty accurate in that sense.

I actually went to the Game of Thrones photoshoot this Otakon. For people who are into a live action show, they're pretty good.

>>7039659
Went to check their Facebook page to get Jon Snow's contact info cause I thought he was cute and...

:(

>>7039674
>for people who are into a live action show
what exactly are you trying to say?

>>7039685
Always assume that good male cosplayers are wearing costumes made by their girlfriends.

That aside, I love this pairing and this photo

>>7039456
Saw him at Ota too. He's a bit short, but other than that he's perfect. He even WALKS like Jaimie. I love it when people go the extra step to bring a character to life andalsoitsnicewhentheyresuperhottoo

I don't know shit about Game of Thrones, but this guy who is a fan recently told me that I remind him of Daenerys (which is the white haired girl, I think). Is this a good or bad thing?

man that must get hot

>>7040506
Dany is a horrible mary sue free all the slaves Abraham Lincoln up in this bitch, #yoloswag check your privilege.

>>7040552
White savior complex. White savior complex everywhere.

Is it weird that the whores (Roz, Shea) are my favorite characters? Anyone ever cosplay them well?

>>7040561
Have you only watched the show? Shae is much better in the books in my opinion but Ros doesn't even exist in them and while I like her in the show I don't completely understand why she has so much screen time.
Also I think you might not like Shae so much next season, be forewarned.

I havent seen cosplay of either.

>>7040506
Daenerys is literally the worst main character in the book.

>>7040506
It depends on what he meant.
For some reason there are a lot of people with an intense hatred for her, so if he's one of those people then it wasn't a compliment.
But she's also the most beautiful woman in the world, so it might have been.

I honestly don't understand why people hate her so much, but to each his own I guess.

>>7040602
>worst main character
>not Cersei
showfag pls

>>7040552
>>7040602
>>7040608
Damn. Well, I consider him a good friend, so I don't think he would slam me like that, but fuck if I know. I know he's only watched the series and not read the books (he doesn't like fiction for some reason), but that could make it worse and not better.

>>7040625
He hates you and is telling you in a very passive aggressive way.

>>7040625
If he's a show watcher than it was probably a compliment.
It's mainly book readers that don't like her.

>>7040626
Subtle. I like it.

Queen of Thorns cosplay, oh hell yeah

>>7040666
Oh hells yeah, Olenna Tyrell is the shit

>>7040701
I feel like this cosplay would make actual Tyrion really happy. And probably Peter Dinklage too.

>>7040701
this is actually really adorable

>>7040701
And you know what, she(?) could have just been like "Yeah I'm a dwarf"and worn anything and called it a Tyrion cosplay but no, that's actually really well-made and styled.

And that's a pretty good Sansa. She's doing a good job of looking rather... dejected

>>7040701
Only critic would be that wig. I don't think I've ever seen Sansa's hair like that. It would have been easier just to do the pulled back braids from season3

>>7040733
She does her hair like that in season 1

>>7040743
No, that is not how her hair is.. She doesn't have a giant bun on her head, it's harder to explain than that-- but it's very easy to execute if you have the right tools. All you need to do is get a hair donut.

>>7040765
>that's not how her hair is
I never said it looked good, what I'm saying is that Sansa does have a similar hair style in season 1.
This is the look she was going for.
It was just very poorly executed.

>>7040768
LOVE this

>>7040775
Okay, okay. I thought you meant by the fact that she has that hair in season one, that it also meant that she pulled it off. I apologize.

>>7040781
Oh absolutely not. Tbh it was her dress that made me realize what hairstyle she was going for.

i have a certain fondness in my heart for this Sansa.

>>7040768
Cool photo, but people doing book-based cosplays can put on whatever they want and claim it's their interpretation, so I'm pretty much never impressed with them.

>>7040806 has a far better wig than >>7040701 but her face and body look nothing like Sansa and she's posing like she's happy and confident and think she's hot shit.

Maybe it's picky but a lot of the costumes I see for GoT are good but the posing is usually really out of character. Smiley Melisandres, haughty Sansas, shy Margaerys and cuddly Karl Drogos smiling with their Danys. Take 2 seconds to learn how your character would pose and what facial expression they'd make.

>>7040886
>>7040886
>Karl Drogos

>>7040886
Khal, whatever too much Skyrim.
Jarl and khal are both titles!

>>7040886
Just for arguments sake, Sansa does have to act like that quite a bit of the time. Not the hot shit bit, but the happy and confident bit. It's part of Sansa's act.

I completely agree with the Melisandre and Drogo bits, but Sansa does try to come off as confident quite a bit.

>>7040928
>I completely agree with the Melisandre and Drogo bits, but Sansa does try to come off as confident quite a bit.
>confident
Faking happiness? Yes.
Faking trust in the King and his family? Yes.
Confident? Never.
If she ever came across as confident, you'd be sure Joff would beat her back into being a submissive bitch again. And Cersei would have a couple things to say to her, too. Sansa should NEVER come across as confident, even if you think she's supposed to be faking it.

The Cersei actually had "wine" (just some red liquid) in her cup and I just really loved the detail for some reason

>>7040976
Well ignoring the fact that she looks like a man (the cosplayer), drunk Cersei is my favorite Cersei.

>>7040981
She was actually not bad looking in person, it's just a bad picture because we were in the dealer's room and I didn't want to disturb the traffic, so I took the picture really quickly, also her expression isn't the most flattering one she could have picked. The Arya though was FANTASTIC and I'm sad I couldn't get a better picture

>>7040991
>Cersei
Her dress and hair look wonderful

Arya looks pretty good but a little too old for the character.

>>7040928
I don't really see how the dead look in Sansa's eyes give off an idea of 'confidence.'
Maybe before she was stuck in her horrible situation, she had confidence. But not so much anymore.

>>7040615
>Calls someone a showfag
>Says Cersei is the worst POV character

Oh my fucking christ, what am I even reading?
Cersei is a fucking amazing POV character because she's absolutely batshit paranoid about everything and just plain makes shit up in her narration/perspective. Her chapters are some of my favorites.

>>7040976
I loved that group, I think the Arya looks really good too and she's short enough to pull it off pretty well. Being a convention I would skeptical that its just red liquid though. If it were me and I was Cersei I would get toasted.

>>7040975
Tyrion says a lot that she actually is confident and such, or at least has the potential to be. She's fairly outgoing at events and polite/talkative to everyone. It's why he said she would have made an excellent queen. She's terrified yeah, but she used to be/is naturally socialy confident.

>>7040561
I often joked that Ros was my favourite character because she was the only one whose fate wasn't known to me for the coming number of seasons.
>ROS IS AZOR AHAI

>>7040576
I'm 75% sure they're going to weasel themselves out of that because they've made Shae too likeable and kept pushing how much she loves Tyrion. She wouldn't take Varys' pouch full of diamonds, so why would she spoiler spoiler spoiler? Can't be for status, because obviously spoiler spoiler.
They wrote themselves into a hole there, and I don't really trust their skill to write themselves out of it in a believable manner.

>>7040615
>Cersei
>Not most fabulous
fagfag pls

>>7041157
Allow me to rephrase my opinon.
Cersei is not the worst POV character.
I very much enjoy her paranoid, insane way of thinking.
She is the character I hate the most though, for the same reason I enjoy her chapters.

>>7041157
The awful shit she does because of that prophecy. Oh, Cersei.

im da bes dany

>>7040991
...where are Cersei's eyebrows?
*squints* did... she paint over them? Eyeroll.
STOP PAINTING YOUR EYEBROWS BLONDE TO MATCH YOUR WIG PEOPLE you end up looking like an alien

I just really love this picture. I know two of them and they're great fun and this shot always makes me laugh.

i want to cosplay Hodor really bad, but I'm not fat enough and i'm only 5' 9" ugh

>>7042308
just tuck your chin in and lumber convincingly
you can also fake a belly, but Hodor isn't super fat, just very FULL looking
(it'd be great if you dressed, like, a cabbage patch doll up as Bran and carried him on your back too)

>>7041303
10/10 would follow through a desert.

>>7042328
Thinking about carrying around a bran doll is making me really excited for the cosplay

>>7040701
>actual midget
>good costume construction
>mfw no binding
whyyyyyyyyyy

>>7042429
Oh man, I hope they introduce Penny, then she'll have TWO costumes to choose from that won't ever be well-done by anyone else...

>>7042429
uh, cause she has short limbs and probably physically can't wind the bandages around her own chest?

>>7043818
>using ace bandage to bind
enjoy your suffocated tits

Anymore GoT cosplay? I have some but am not on my computer right now.
So here's a hopeful bump.

>>7044529
My favorite Dany.
She got the colors in the top right.

>>7044516
wat

>>7044516
>dat hair
i don't even...

>>7044529
I dont like when Danys wear straight white wigs though.

>>7044609
Her wig is perfect, dafuq you talking about?

>>7044609
that wig is wavy?

or are you talking about the color? In the books it's closer to silver, so I can see why people would choose a white wig, but I agree it needs just a splash of blonde in it. It looks like they even shooped the eyes violet too, so I am going to assume they were going for book mode features, because the outfit looks tv show

After knowing the amount of detail in every single piece of clothing the main characters wear... I just cannot be impressed by any costume I've seen so far.

>pic related: 'For this dress the designer Michele Clapton wanted a dragonscale like textured embroidery that starts to emerge on Daenerys’s costume and becomes heavier and more pronounced, growing and evolving as the season progresses.'

I mean this >>7039286 kind of comes close? But I know it's missing the insane embroidery on that gown from the show. http://www.michelecarragherembroidery.com/Sansas-Wedding-Dress-Gallery(2880131).htm even though I guess she could be planning to add it?

>>7044681
She's still working on the embroidery. Pic related.

>>7044643
it'd be a lot better if it was lacefront

>>7044516
I go to school with her

>>7044662
>>7044643
Yeah, it's the color. The hair's not supposed to be flat white. I just like seeing it with a bit less, uh, well animu-ish white color. It's supposed to be silver or extreme platinum, not straight white.
If you want to go straight white at least put some wefts in to make it look less flat.

That's a really good Dany, I just don't like those plain white wigs.

>>7046012
I still think it's the best Dan wig I've seen so far, in terms of how it's styled, the waviness, etc...
I see what you mean about the color though, after looking at some other pictures of the cosplay.

>>7046069

Margaerys with no support in their tops make me sad :(

>>7046098
Uuhg this Marg cosplay makes me cringe, I've seen it around a couple times and the construction is just so sloppy.
And what is that pose?

Anyone have a picture of the great Hound that was at Otakon?

>>7039421
>mirin dat crown

>>7040725

that cosplayer is a repeat in the new england scene and is always wearing really well made stuff, it's nice

>>7046120
>>7046098
this girl actually self posted a couple times and said it was her first costume ever i think? said she was planning on re-doing it. I suggested she look into some really top notch fabrics since this is supposed to be a Queen in waiting.

I do think her face is peeeerfect. Though she needs to drop like 15-20 pounds.

>>7046093

>dat visible mold seam

>>7046180
Yeah those fabric choices. Not bad for a first cosplay, just probably not the best costume to pick if you're new to sewing.

I'm planning on doing Margaery and its like blue and gold taffeta, blue and gold taffeta everywhere.
>mfw a yard of the cheapest of the fabrics I picked out is $40

I'd really like to cosplay Arya, but I have yet to watch the show (inb4 bitching, I read the books). Are there are Arya outfits that would be super recognizable? I figured I was gonna do this outfit, but I don't know if people would realize what it's meant to be

>>7046180
Agree, good face but the costume itself leaves a lot to be desired

>>7046193
>cheapest fabric is 40/yd
Good on you anon, that means you are doing it right, which dress are you doing?

>>7046202
>(inb4 bitching, I read the books)
Read: I will read about it on wikipedia.

>>7046202
That's the most recognizable one yes, I'm doing that same outfit this winter. Have yet to find a wig I like though.

>>7046207
>Wikifag
But that's even worse than being a showfag.

Anyway, that's probably her most common/recognizable outfit. Please read the books and don't read the wiki, they're really not that intollerable when GRRM isn't going on about hard pink shafts and Danys loose shits.

>>7046204
This one. Though I found a fabric that's very close to the embroidery I'm going to try my hand at doing it custom before I resort to premade.

>>7046226
I have read the books, the anon was just bitching because they think I haven't (not sure why though...)

>>7046226
That was the joke...

>>7046231
>>7046233
Oops, Im retarded.

>>7046238
>>7046226
>>7046207
we /got/ now

FIRST FOR DARKSTAR

>>7046307
Darkstar is my hero.

>>7046231
Because you're just jumping on the bandwagon now. There have been ASOIAF threads on /cgl/ for two years now and you never posted in them until now.

>in b4 I started reading the books two months ago :o)

>>7046307
>>7046317
>tee hee I will mention darkstar to show how in meta I am xD ~~
I'd say the thread went to shit but then again it wasn't good to begin with.

>>7046081
>their expressions
haha, perfect

>>7046098
your just jealous cause she's a hotty

>>7046333
wow chill out, I was just making a funny

>>7046333
>he's never been to /got/

>>7046333
>not knowing Darkstar is of the night

>>7046337
No you stupid cunt, I've been there and I'm sick of that Darkstar bullshit (and sick of pretty much 90% of the posts in those worthless threads). The point was that you're so retarded that you think if you'll bring it up here you'll get some street cred or something.

>>7046343
I forgot /cgl/ is a no fun allowed zone.

>>7046326
I never wanted to do a GoT cosplay until recently? If I were bandwagon jumping, I would have already jumped on it like, a year or two ago when it was all anyone talked about

>>7046343
>mfw all this buttrage

>>7046362
aw shit, forgot pic

>>7046093
Here's another one of this same Dany.
I like this shot because it's actually conveying some kind of emotion. A lot of Dany photos I've seen are just her staring off blankly.

>>7046202
you'd be a pretty good arry, actually.

I actually look forward to getting a little older and being able to cosplay Cersei
>mfw all the Cersei cosplayers look way too young
Sounds nit picky, I know, but she's definitely not a young girl anymore.

Bump

>>7046392
I don't know -- Book cersei is only 34 when joffrey dies.

>>7046384
oioioioi! looks like someone's gonna get her pussy creampied by an alpha male :)

>>7047658
>posting spoilers no matter how obvious

>>7047959
Dude the book is 13 years old. No such thing as a spoiler at this point.

I feel like the nit-pickers have never made anything worthwhile in their life and have nothing better to do than shit on other people. Good job.

>>7047996
>Implying not
>Implying everybody who lost their shit at the Red Wedding knew what was going to happen beforehand.
>Implying ASOIAF is the phenomenon with least spoilers in the story of fashions. Until now, that has become a fashion and everybody and their moms are making spoilers about things that hasn't even happened (See the whole "LYANNA IS JONS MOMMY :3" thing)

>>7047996
>implying everyone read the books
>implying most people who started with the tv show don't want to wait to read the books so they can enjoy the show and not nit pick at changes.

>>7047658
Yeah and isn't she like pretty much in her forties or close to it when she gets shamed in front of the kingdom some books later?

>>7048075
I don't think so.

>>7046142

>>7048021
>>7048012

Top lel showfags. I bet you also love Khaleesi.
Welcome to 4chan. If you're in a asoiaf thread you're in a spoiler thread. Be glad this isn't /tv/ where they welcome showfags by listing all the major spoilers from the series.

Read the fucking books.
Also
>Joff dies
Is the spoiler you're pissed about, really? How could that possibly surprise you?

>>7048075
Nah it's like the same general time frame. She's also supposed to be one of the most beautiful women in Westeros, even in her 30s.

>>7047658
>>7048075

That is what I mean by older.
I don't consider ages 30-40 to be a young girl or even a young woman

>>7048425
Only according to her, Jaime, and her puppet court.

>>7048472
That is totally fair, the show always makes me think of her in her 40's instead of her early 30's.

>>7048425
Not the person you're responding too but what the fuck is wrong with you? There is nothing wrong about people getting into a book series after becoming interested in something because of a show or movie.

It's assholes like you acting so superior for being a "true fan" or whatever bullshit that shit up fandoms. Also in before
>herdurrr you probably on read the books a month ago

No, I've been reading this series since it first came out. A fan is a fan and you should just be happy that somebody is interested in what you like. Who cares if someone's a showfag, the show has it's merits, and more often then not it's getting more people interested in reading.

Fuck all you immature little brats forcing people to "prove" how much of a fan they are. Get over yourself you immature piece of shit.

>>7048425
;_; I don't have cable and I've only seen a few episodes of the show at a friend's place and it made me interested in the books. Not the anon you were replying to but I'm only on the second book and you kind of spoiled stuff for me. I just wanted to see pretty costumes....

I know quite a few GoT cosplayers and all of them put their all into the costumes. I have seen some mediocre ones but none that are really bad. I guess GoT costume designs appeal to those who are actually good at making the costumes.

>>7039456 This Jaime is one of the best I have seen. Anyone done the newer version of Jaime?

>>7039536

Hello friend, you and me have incredibly similar feels.

I'm also trying to talk my boyfriend into being Stannis because he looks like the guy who plays him on the show but making dat armor is probably gonna make me cry like a bitch.

>Trying to enjoy pictures of cosplay
>suddenly spoilers everywhere
At least it was someone I wanted to die. But, I won't be bothering with this thread any more.

>>7048510
Oh, Im sorry then. I really am. I don't normally spoil stuff I just don't think that one was a really surprising spoiler.

>>7048505
My bad. Now I feel shitty. Back to my containment zone. I just dont like showfags because they're usually khaleesi burn them all XD assholes.

I will say I wasnt the anon who originally posted that spoiler at least.

>>7048479
Very true. You always have to think about unreliable narrators in asoiaf.

>>7048425

Spoilers: absolutely no one is impressed by a superiority complex, let alone one based on /tv/ threads no one gives a shit about

It's too bad that Margaery dies in the upcoming Winds of Winter. My cousin is his agent's assistant and he let it slip to her. So bummed...

And yea, Jon is definitely dead.

>>7049649

This is the GoT cosplay that I was most impressed with at SDCC. I got really excited because I thought she was Sanza, but then my friend pointed out that she's wearing Lady Stark's robes. In my mind I then just thought of her as Sanza in those clothes. The girl told me who she was cosplaying when I said I couldn't remember the name (at the time I couldn't) and I didn't hear her so to this day I'm not sure.

She looks a lot like Sanza to me (and I thought she was at first) but then my friend pointed out that she was dressed as Lady Stark.

>>7049649
Nothing of value was lost.

>>7039402
Hahaha ohwow
That is fucking awesome

>>7040768
Coool
I actually wish mel wore a dress like this in the show now

>>7049649
lolsodum

>>7046007
vomit on her for us

>>7049787
she definitely has a good face for sansa

does anyone have any good lesser characters?

So I'm doing a Melisandre cosplay and just stumped on how to make the necklace - mostly the gold hexagons. Any ideas to make them out of?

>>7050989
lol I saw those unsullied and sorta laughed. They used plastic captain america shields and you could still see the star in the middle.

>>7050989

chick on the right needs to consider Xena cosplay cause she really looks like a young Lucy Lawless

>>7051146
didnt you say you were going to do one?

>>7050989
I don't know if he counts as a lesser known character but I love this Littlefinger

>>7051187
Yah, didn't get to finish so I just stayed with jon snow. Shield is almost done though, i'll work on it around wondercon time.

>>7051206
show me your jon snow

>>7039263
Book canon Ramsay or go home.

>>7050989
I'll let you guys be the judge as to whether its good or not, but I did Jaqen H'ghar for AX and Comic Con

I would love to cosplay Arya, but I feel like I'm too tall and my face is too long. I'm around 5'6".

Would a tall Arya work or would it just ruin the whole cosplay?

>>7051571

MOAR

>>7051607

This thread needs more of the three Baratheon brothers!

>>7051625

>>7051571

Oh wow, who is this guy?

>>7051812
A russian сука cosplaying the worst male character on the show, after Daario "the living dildo" Naharis.

>>7051604
No please, do it. I don't give a shit if you're a tall Arya, your face would be absolutely amazing for her.

>>7052151
the book repeatedly mentions that arya has a long face like her father, so i would go for it :)

Fuck it, selfposting. I'l decide if you think it's bad or good. If there's any way you think I could improve it, let me know.

Though, I swear the wig's normally better. I had forgotten that I took out the braids and had to do them in the car. Hence the floppiness.

>>7052160
I think you did a great job

>>7052160
I think the fabric and construction of your dress is beautiful.

>>7052175
>>7052195
Oh, thank you both! I'm really insecure about it with all the amazing GoT cosplays and the fact that this was my first bigger project, so that means a lot!

>>7052160
It looks generally nice, just make sure you iron/steam the seams and the whole dress next time because it's looking wrinkled and the seams look unironed. I also think that for that costume you should have used a heavier weight fabric--this is Sansa's Winterfell dress, not one of her King's Landing gowns, so the material should be thicker.

>>7052160
The only thing I take issue with is that the hairline doesn't look as natural as it could look. Though with how well done everything else is, I bet you could easily ventilate the wig a little to get a less wiggy look.

That said, overall it's one of the best looking Sansa cosplays I've seen and I'm being nitpicky so feel free to ignore that.

>>7052253
Yeah, I kind of realized it was thicker after I bought the fabric, which was unfortunate. Perhaps I'll make her cape as well to hopefully give it a more Northern feel. With the amount I spent on the fabric, I'd rather not remake it completely. Do you think that would do?

And I agree about the ironing. My iron is on it's last leg and the seams keep popping back up because of that. I'll fix that for sure.

>>7052263
Good to know! It is lacefront, so adding a bit more should be pretty easy.

this is a WIP Margaery I found on Facebook

>>7039579
Dress is kinda good, then the wig completely ruins it for me.

>>7052295
Yeah I think that would be awesome. Entirely remaking it would be kinda ridiculous (not to mention expensive)

>>7052298
Jesus christ.

does anyone have any links to good references? preferably of Joffrey and Margaery

>>7052298
ew

>>7051090
3dprinter/goldpaint/plastic jewel for the hex part
some chain for the chain part
or actual copper and bronze.

>>7052298
Oh honey, no... she could have at least made the skirt to hit at her natural waist like it's supposed to...

>>7046069
one eye is looking at me
one eye is looking at the water glass next to me.

>>7051604
Why wouldn't you be Margaery? You look nothing like Arya and everything like Marg, and I mean that as a huge compliment.
>>7052160
I seriously, in all honestly, did not even know who you were cosplaying.

This Daenerys was super adorable, she did a lot of serious looking photos where she wasnt cheezing but this is the only one I could find so far of her.

>>7039263
They never try to do anything different or interesting in their cosplay, it's just the same shit over and over, they won't take any liberties.

>>7053565
Sorry I didn't do the pink dress, then?

>>7053685
because every time they do, people hate it.

though not gonna lie, a choreographed fight between a Jaime and a Drogo would be all kinds of awesome.

>>7048425
best gif N/A

>>7049649
I think Jon is magically going to still be alive!! I really despise Lady Stark, but let's see if they'll let her live in the next season.

>>7053730
Those people are fucking morons. At least one out of 300 Danys and Sansas should at least try to be creative.

>>7052160
I think you look great. Love the dress. I agree with the feedback on the wig but otherwise looking great.

>>7051195
>Littlefinger
>Lesser Known
>Literally the main Antagonist behind the scenes.
>IshiggyDiggydoogong.

>>7052151
Thank you! I'm glad someone thinks I look like her. That also makes me feel a bit better about the tall thing.

>>7052153
Ahh! I've actually never read the books, shameful. But then it all works out!

>>7053565
Do you think? Again, I feel like my face is way too long. Plus Margaery has a very distinct eye shape, but I guess that's what makeup is for!

>>7052298
see image:
>>7046350

>>7052160
You look really great, dress is perfect and the color of your wig looks fantastic.

>>7051604
I think you'd make a cute Arya AND Margaery.

>>7052139
>Daario Naharis
Are you...blind? That is clearly Jon Snow.

>>7051571
10/10 would attempt to seduce in a cave

Are you fucking blind? Do you speak English, faggot?

>>7054516
Are you illiterate? They said the worst character after Daario Naharis.

>Oh wow, who is this guy?
and then
>>7052139

But that is not who he is cosplaying.

>>7054535
oh wait now I see, my bad, read that wrong

>>7054535
A russian bitch [the cosplayer] who's cosplaying the worst character in the show [Jon Snow], [...]

>>7054540
Yes I see that now, I read it wrong the first time.

>>7054546
Same. The sentence was fucking confusing.

> polite sage

>>7049787
The conjecture-loving bookfag in me wants to urge this lady to dress up as potential future Sansas, especially if she has a slightly older-looking you-know-who beside her. They probably wouldn't be very recognisable but still, imagine the mindfuck.

>>7051547
8/10

Not really cosplay-related but I'm just curious. Who is everyone's favorite POV character in the books and why?

>>7054647
you mean littlefinger :D

Little finger exports Salsa to The Eyrie where he kills Cathelyn's sister after she saws him kissing Salsa :D

then he tricks everyone to become the lord of the Vale :D

>>7054880
Davos, duh

Melly Sanders too

and Theon

>7054890
> :D
>those shitty wikipedia spoilers
What are you, 12?
-5/10 lrn2troll.jpg

>>7054890

>>7054880
Cersei, Cat, Sansa, Jaime and Brienne because they're intriguing characters I wouldn't mind having a cup of tea with (or wine, in Cersei's case. Drunk Cersei is best Cersei). And Sam because he's my husbando.
I also have a thing for the Greyjoys even though they're horrible and would love to have more Melisandre chapters to at least try to understand what makes her tick. Most of my favourite POV characters are favourites because I find their stories interesting and not necessarily because they're likeable people.

>>7054880
Jaime Lannister. Helps me see him as a person, not an asshole. He's a pretty cool guy, and it sucks that he's so misunderstood by the general populace. Doesn't help that he acts like an asshole a lot, I suppose.

>>7054880
Jaime, Davos, Cersei and Sansa.

>>7055257
Forgot to include reasons.
>Jaime
He is my favorite character. I started out hating him in AGoT, but as soon as we get his POV, it becomes very clear that he is not the person he appears to be on the outside. I really fell in love with his character and his developement, and his relationship with Brienne (but I don't ship them, because shipping is fucking dumb)

>Davos
He is just so loyal and so real. He doesn't pretend to be anything other than what he is, and he always gives it to Stannis straight up. Some of my favorite quotes/scenes in the whole series are in his POVs.

>Cersei
Well I can't stand her as a person, but I love her paranoia and her downward spiral into madness (and alcoholism). The whole debacle with Marg and the Kettleblacks is one of the more entertaining plotlines in ASOIAF.

>Sansa
I really don't know why I like her chapters, but after she leaves KL they start to get more intersting. I am very curious to see where her character goes.

>>7054880

Cersei, Davos, Jaime, Arya, Cat, Brienne, Littlefinger, a whole bunch I'm forgetting.

Also I really love Daenerys even though, as this thread is informing me, I'm apparently a pleb for doing so? I've always loved how the triumphs and mistakes of her story are balanced. And I really liked watching her find herself in the early books--the scene where she rides out into the Dothraki sea on her own really stayed with me.

>>7056802
>I'm pleb for doing so
Don't let the haters deter you, that's just /got/ talking. Almost everyone I know IRL thinks she's cool. It's totally fine to like Dany.


(I like her too)

>>7056809
Man, I just stuck my head into a /got/ thread and what the fuck am I looking at

Also, not op so here's my faves: Littlefinger, Cersei, Sansa, Stannis, Theon, Brienne, Jaime, Arya, Melisandre.

>>7056809
> Almost everyone I know IRL thinks she's cool. It's totally fine to like Dany.
Because they're retarded sheep.

The only good thing about Daenerys is that she serves as a proof of character. People who like her = cancer.

You know. Just like people who hate dogs. Also cancer.

>>7041245
She's a love to hate character, like her son.

Durgenlady is just stupid.
She'd be a much better character as someone people only heard rumors about, a looming mysterious threat in the background.

It'd really help with a lot of the problems of her character.

>>7046065
Fav character lookin' fabulous

>>7056847
your opinion =/= fact

stay mad

I'll be bringing Shae to DragonCon this year. I figured now would be the best time to do her, before next season happens. I wanted to do Sansa and have my boyfriend do Sandor, but no luck.

But y'all are right about the Dany cosplays. There are 3 in my friend circle alone. Although, I don't really have a problem with it as long as they're well done.

>>7056847

"retarded sheep"

hahahaahahahahahaha oh you're one of those

>>7054880
Only POV character?

>Sansa
I really like how GRRM writes how she's dealing with KL in the beginning. It's definitely something I really like reading because I can't imagine how almost any twelve year old could deal with something like that. After KL, I just. Do I need a reason for that? I just am really excited for her arc. I also love Sansa's POV because of the prophecies about her that occur in an Arya chapter.

>Arya
For the most part, I really liked her chapters when she's wandering around. Not digging The House of Black and White too much, but with the last cliffhanger, I think I definitely will enjoy it more.

>Melisandre
Because reading about her tricks and beliefs is completely fascinating to me. She went from being a psycho bitch to someone who's beliefs I can actually understand.

>Griff
I just really like Young Griff as a character, okay. I want to see what he's going to do and how far he's going to get. Too bad the 'Mummer's Dragon' thing will probably be him. Though, that's also possessive, so perhaps Young Griff is legitimate while Griff isn't? Who knows.

>Jaime
Because Jaime's past and present and how his emotions play out. I also really like comparing his relationship with Cersei through her point of view.

Other than POV character, Joffrey is definitely my favorite. I love reading about him in everyone's chapters.

>>7056880
>before next season
Smart choice considering what's coming

>>7056886
If they even do it. It seems like they're making her far too attached to Sansa and Tyrion for what Shae's supposed to do? They've pretty much already made it apparent that she "can't" be bought.

I hope I'm wrong, though.

>>7056889
Shit I know right? That was a huge OH SHIT moment in the books and I really hope they don't change it, but sadly you're right, they have already added a lot to her character that seems to be going in a different direction.
I've read some interesting theories on how it might play out, but out of respect for the showfags in this thread, I will keep them to myself for now.

>>7056896
I thought that's why they were keeping Ros around. So she would be the one to do it. But she dead. So who knows.

>>7056889
>>7056896
I've been wondering about that as well.

>>7054880
idk how I feel about Bran chapters.
Guys tell me how I should feel about Bran chapters. I'm between being bored and finding them super interesting

>>7057036
They're shit at the moment. It's like a long, boring saga of how he will finally get his powers of being Professor X or something, so I guess it will become more interesting once he will be fully able to use them.

Also, I'd put on money on the fact that Bran will be a major piece in fighting against the Others/winter. Just saying.

>>7056874
Actually, my opinion is very much factual towards her.

Stay a shitty person.

>>7056881
No, you're the one who's opinion is the same as the mindless turds who unquestionably love anything the showrunners shit onto their faces.

>>7052298
She's all..... peely

That sad feel where my favourite character is Cersei and I hate Dany and Jon Snow.

All of my Showfag friends fucking despise me.

>>7057925
Know those feels. I like the same characters.

To me Dany and Jon seem very disjointed to the rest of the story. I love Cersei and how ambitious she is. She is making the best of her position.

>>7057104
Bran is so fucking boring. Meera is the only good thing about his PoVs.

>>7052160
only crit is that you should do your eyebrows in a little redder to match the wig. other than that, great job!

>>7056880
Honestly a smart choice if they do end up doing it, lol

>>7056880
>cosplaying literally the worst character of all time
She is the Ebony Dark'ness Dementia Raven Way of the show.

Ah fuck it, self post because I just love GoT! Cersei ftw, best character ever. I love her spiral into madness, I can't wait to see how Lena Headey portrays it in the show!

>>7058601
Love the wig, but I would definitely lose the shawl or make one out of another fabric. It just looks tacky compared to the rest fabric-wise.

>>7058601
I agree with
>>7058609
but I'd maybe darken the blonde a little or make it less yellow blonde if you can
gorgeous detailing though

>>7058609
>>7058611

Thanks! Yeah I kinda hate the shawl too, it was a rush job... And I intend to buy a new wig in a darker colour, since yeah, it's way too blonde. But oh I love lace-front wigs. Plus the dress is a bit too red, but it was one of my most difficult projects to date, so I'm still happy with. I'm hoping to make another Cersei costume soon, just can't help but love her.

>>7058584
Who, Shae? Wat?

>>7058601
Are you the same Cersei in this picture?

I do like your costume. I agree with the others about the wig. But I love the dress and belt.

>>7058601
Are you the same Cersei in this picture?

I do like your costume. I agree with the others about the wig. But I love the dress and belt.

>>7059480
Yes, Shae. In the books she's at least a stupid simple prostitute. In the series she's a streetwise intelligent smart cookie:^) who gets to tell Tyrone to fuck off all the time and he accepts it cause a noble like him cannot argue with someone so beautiful and perfect like her. Also she's a noble too actually, she was supposed to be the Queen of Essos but she decided it's misogynistic for her to be forced to become the queen so instead she ran away to Westeros where she could live like a strong independent woman (a whore) and she knew she would find her one true man there (Tyrone) because she's also a wizard who sees the future.

>>7060330

Yes I am, thank you! It was my first experiment with any type of armour, so there was definitely a learning curve, but I loved making the chainmail! I redid the necklace, fixed the belt, and restyled the wig between the two photos. I really should've sorted out the shawl as well but... yeah. I'm thinking about getting the Arwen wig from Arda for my next Cersei costume, in a nice dark blonde colour.

>tfw so many bad Dany's
FUCKING CHEETAH PRINT? REALLY?

Bumping because there were a shitton of Game of Thrones cosplayers at Tampa Bay Comic Con today. Anyone have pics to share? Apparently there was this "AMAZING" Rob Stark that I completely missed and my friends didn't get a picture of.
