/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

Opinion about Asian culture party

If you are event organizers you use this event I mention and do the exact opposite. There was literally nothing at all to be made in this con. I feel the only ones that truly like that shittfest were the chungas that liked to dance and scream and being rude.
The only thing decent was the cosplay workshop, the rest especially the band was just awful.

pic related, best cosplay there.

>>7204519

It's a shame she disappeared and never attended any event.

>>7204519
One more useless pt thread

i feel like this girl alway chooses characters that fit her poorly.
She looks way to old on most of them, especially her Asuka, she should have done misako instead.

>>7204527
She posts some things on her fb page sometimes but yeah, I don't really recall seeing her at any event. She always seemed to keep everything very low profile, doing the cosplays she liked and private shoots and that's about it.

>>7204531
Is it that hard to click the toggle thread button?
Just shut up and let us be, there's threads for other countries' communities too.

another girl that went missing in the PT communitie.

>>7204539
She's in London now.

>>7204539
Didn't she move to the UK?
She had some nice cosplays

>>7204535
The only think I don't like about her is how she does the same "fake smile" every single photo

I like watching this cosplayer improving. She began sewing by herself and her prop making is pretty nice

>>7204546
I think she still does cosplay, and she's still at cosplayer ezine. pic related

>>7204554
That character doesn't suit her tho I think she looks better doing not so manly ones

>>7204558

Ezine still exists??
they were really irregular and now they dont pos in ages.

>>7204560
They publish twice a year (six to six months), It might be because she went to england

>>7204560
Last edition was for July, the new one should be out soon, I suppose? But that's true, I haven't seen any posts from them in quite a long time.

>>7204560
Yes it exists but I feel like it is getting worse, they seem to only feature popular cosplayers instead of the good ones lately. What do you think?

>>7204566
Why does popular =/= good? Many of the popular cosplayers are still good.

>>7204566
I didn't knew the cosplayer from the last one until I saw the magazine, but I don't know that many cosplayers

>>7204564
>>7204565
Derp, you're right, I was confusing it with something else and thought it came out every 3 months..

>>7204566
I disagree, they've been featuring good cosplayers?
Two editions ago was Eveny who makes wonderful cosplays and placed at an international competition, last one was Miguel (as a male, it's a rarity among the "more known" cosplayers, at least over here), who also participated on an european competition and has quite nice costumes?

>>7204572
Some popular cosplayers are good but some underrated ones are even better and never featured

>>7204576
I'm curious anon, who do you think it should get a feature? post pic!

>>7204572
because usually newbies make one or two shitty cosplays and they usually suck.

when you have a nice cosplay portefolio you usually get a facebook page and became more popular. It kinda works that way.

I feel Ezine will be extinguished soon. They started being every 3 months than got really late with dates, moved to four which they again did not deliver and now they are semestral? When you read an article the event has passed ages ago, its just not really that interesting to read anymore.

I got really excited for a second thinking this was a pixyteri thread

>>7204576

Thing is, cosplayers like Eveny were unknown until two years ago, maybe. So although she is popular now, she got her feature when she was not so popular.

I'd love to see kurosisters, they would do a nice cover.

>>7204582
No, just some lame pt cosplay again

>>7204584
I really hope they do, their work is lovely and so are they. They deserve it

>>7204584
Eveny is one of the few well deserved cosplayer features lately

>>7204584
except they are fairly popular now.

I believe it works that way> you just went on a international comp you get featured.

I am the only one who thinks this girl would be more suitable for crossplay?

>>7204592

or dark skinned characters, I dont know why she insists she is so pale.

>>7204592
I agree, she would do great crossplays. I think her face isn't cute enough for most of the female cosplays she choses

I really like this guy's cosplays. However, it's really sad that the quality of his pictures is terrible, I wish he'd get a good photographer to make justice to his costumes.

>>7204592
Maybe she doesn't like to crossplay? However, I do think she suits more mature characters, rather than the girly girl ones

On the issue of the Cosplayer mag, I really hate that they feature cosplayers from other countries. They could have less pages and promote portuguese cosplay instead so we actually know what is around. I also dislike that their method of submitting is through deviantArt now, it limits everyone to have a deviantArt.

>>7204626
I agree, they should feature more portuguese cosplayers, rather than from other countries. Of course they can interview cosplayers from other countries too but I feel that they give them too much attention, considering it's a pt ezine.

>>7204626
the stupidest thing there I the têndecias article. people cosplay the hell they want, you dont have to show us what is in and what is out.

>>7204608
>guy cosplayers
>trying to get decent photos
Next to impossible, most photogs don't want to shoot dudes, regardless of costume quality. Such are my woes.

I find this girl lovely. Yeah, she's fat but she cosplays what she enjoys anyway while looking nice in her costumes. She has a cute face, too

>>7204667
I bet there are plenty of photographers who'd love to have a photoshoot with him. He just picks close friends who have no talent for photography.

>>7204627
I like to see that article to know the cosplays when I see them, I guess it serves as inspiration and not so much as a "must do it thing" they should have more articles and tutorials instead of reports of events that happened ages ago.

>>7204627
If they want to do international cosplayers they should do cosplayer who speak our languange, it makes more sense. I don't know if there is any angolan or monzambique cosplayer but I would like to see it

>>7204572
it's like artists
a lot are popular because of butiful coulourz xD but suck at anatomy.

>>7204670
No talent? The photo looks nice. The only problem is the quality, mabe due to the camera itself

>>7204637
Actually, my biggest problem with it is that I don't agree with the way they qualify the cosplays at all. I think it could work if the title was "cosplay ideas" or something of the sort. It could even come with a small explanation or tutorial of how to construct the costume, what to watch out for, etc...
>>7204680
Honestly, I'd like to know about cosplayers from other portuguese speaking countries as well. That could be a great article

>>7204709
I bet 99% of all portuguese speaking cosplayers are from Brazil. Or maybe 99.9%.

>>7204701
I picked one of the nicest, composition wise. Many of his photoshoots have poor pictures. And many of the nice ones have poor quality.

Pic related, shitty photography

>>7204726
Probably, but it would be fun to discover cosplayers from our antique colonies, and if they exist, or even cosplayers who are emigrants in other countries

>>7204747
I think it'd be interesting to see them interviewing cosplayers from other countries that are here visiting, studying over here, etc. Not just guest cosplayers at cons.

What the shit does PT stand for? There is only one PT /cgl/ is concerned about.

>>7204680
>>7204709
>>7204747
>>7204755
These are all really fun ideas that would probably give a new "life" and "face" to the magazine, which is dying at the moment.

Now, which of us will suggest them to the staff?

>>7204757
you must be north american

>>7204763
And thinks that Portugal is Spain

>>7204765
my thoughts exactly

>>7204765
and that Spain is Mexico

>>7204789
Great idea but need to be improved

>>7204789
The guy just started cosplaying a few months ago, I hope he remakes this cosplay in the future.

I heard that Krana guy has a really sexy ass :3

He totally does... I once smelled it... fishsticks

Guys i know that cosplay is fun and all that, but what about that ronaldo guy and pepsi?

>>7204818
I like Madoka a lot but Homura looks shitty

I know what you mean, that's why I've always been pro-diet coke from continente, it's truly the soda of kings

Miguel és gay e nunca te irei pagar um pão com choriço

poor Miguel, bet he would have loved that pão com chouriço like his own child :c

Why do you have to ruin an ok thread..

>>7204858

so... dead thread?

>>7204668
this girl is sooo pretty!

>>7204842
Ringo's seen some shit.
Both of them need sleep.

One of my fav cosplayers, her cosplays are really nice and they all fit her really well, I also love her choice of characters!
I can't wait for a photoshoot of her Pit cosplay, it's certainly my fav!!

>>7204818
I really like the reversed reflections.

>>7204519
didn't know these kinds of threads existed.

portuguese as in, from brasil?From portugal but mainly brasil?
What's the deal here?

>>7206508
Are you dumb? Where do you even see Brazil here

>>7206514
what does that even mean?
there's no way I could've guessed it.

>>7206529
uh
Portuguese
as in Portugal
explain where the fuck did you see Brazil here

>>7206536
the term 'portuguese' can refer to a person/ people from portugal or brasil.
On the internet especially and western dominated websites you'll see it being used to refer to brasilians or whatever you'd call them, hence me asking.

So chill a bit brah, no need to be upset

>>7206546
No, portuguese are from Portugal. Brazilian are from Brazil. However, in Portugal we speak portuguese, in Brazil they speak portuguese as well. You're mixing it up?
Also there's just PT on the thread's name, so it's Portugal. If it was Brazil it'd be BR?
I don't understand the confusion

>>7206560
I've seen it being used it both ways.
You go on youtube/whatever type in something, finish it with PT and you'll get yourself BR-related content.

I don't even know what you're getting so worked up about, exactly.
I just asked m8

>>7206570
Not really worked up, just didn't understand why did portuguese automatically mean Brazil and not Portugal and was confused myself.
Personally, whenever I looked for PT content I always got Portugal's portuguese and not Brazil but welp

>>7206570
If you saw it being used both ways, it's wrong.
PT means portuguese. In this case, since it's PT Cosplay, "portuguese cosplay", it means it's cosplay from Portugal.
PT can also mean portuguese, as in the language, and that is the only thing we have in common with Brazil. But I think it's pretty obvious that in this case we meant the country and not the language.

And with all that worked out, back to photos.

>>7207517
I do love her cosplays

What about male cosplayers?

wut do you think?

>>7208034
There are so little male cosplayers, unfortunately. At least that take cosplay more "seriously" and want to improve, rather than just doing it for funsies (not that you can't improve and have fun but you got it).

>>7208061

>>7208062

>>7208064

>>7208071

>>7208073

>>7208047
put a wig, take photo, repeat. oh and arrogant as hell

where the hell you did you get this pics?

>>7208085
deviantArt?

>>7208085
The cosplayers' facebook pages and deviantarts

>>7208061
He's such a good cosplayer, but he has such an unfortunate face.

>>7208062
Jeez, he looks actually good as that character. I wish he could put more serious expressions more often tho. Feels like he's always smiling in every character. Not that smiling is a bad thing oh my.

>>7208064
Well that's some good photoshoop, damn.

>>7208071
Don't know him, but that's a really good Mako.

>>7208073
I have no idea who he is, but hot damn.

>>7208078
Ehhhh, I love this person as that character from LoZ, it just fits him so well. He's also so nice.

One more male cosplayer. I don't really know any more, at least that I can remember atm

>>7208106
Managed to forget the pic

>>7208108
The sewing bits look terrible while the non-sewing bits look amazing.

This guy, but he hasn't shown up at cons for years now

>>7208083
This is a commission from her store.

>>7208766
the fuck am i actually looking at..

>>7208766
I made prettier jewelry from Play Doh when I was in elementary school.

>>7208787

>>7208802

you cant be serious, how much did she charge?

>>7208805
I have no idea, but I got mine for 2200 yen at Mandarake.

>>7208802
>>7208766

dear god why

>>7208820
same

Her cosplay is about as bad as that item

>>7208881
Ref so you can compare

>>7208766
Wtf is this piece of shit. It's a joke, right? She doesn't actually.. sell that. Right?

>>7208881
>>7208883
And her group won the contest. I cannot understand, for the life of me. Didn't they just dance? It's not like it's boring and overdone. Plus, terrible cosplays, at least hers.

>>7208008
This obvious selfpost

>>7208899
I remember that, I really wished the comics group or Touhou had won instead.

>>7208881
It's no wonder, she has only been cosplaying for a year but I think she's really getting ahead of herself with the commissions and the contests.

>>7208916
I think the only one who have nice commission work is Sam and Saphira.
The rest is really poor. I remember sewing Chibi posts about her commissions and honestly, she isnt ready for that work, she coudnt make buttonholes or know which fabric her machine could sew. Later she complained people hadn't pay her yet ( I believe it was the umineko uniform) and she needed the money. The same goes for whoever says makes commissions and then presents really poor work.

>>7208919
Chibi is still bad at sewing. She has improved a lot but not enough for commissions or the big dresses she insists on doing

What happened to that stupid Liga Portuguesa de Cosplay thing? Did they make any other contest or they realized they are a joke.

>>7208945
I visited their fb page the other day, the same thought crossed my mind. Seems pretty dead.

Have you guys seen the CMVs by Artie Gatou (fb)? I enjoy her videos quite a lot, much more interesting to see than the usual con videos.

Related, her latest video, from AmadoraBD. I think the only thing I'd have liked to see in the video would be more cosplays. There were a lot of cosplayers there and the video doesn't show many of them. It looks pretty good anyway, imo.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IbEX0r0FvYY

>>7208915
Or maybe someone actually likes it

>>7209009
Her madoka costume is definitely better, this one needs a little more effort, needs to be better fitted and more detailed imo.

>>7209131
it's normal that it seems big, she's chubby so it's normal it look a little loose

>>7209146
>>7209146
I don't think that should be an excuse, you have to fit your cosplay to compliment your body type. I've seen a lot of chubby cosplayers pulling that off very well.

>>7209131
Besides the fitting there is more stuff that bothers me about the costume like the length and position of the dark pink part, which is off. The costume itself is simple so it requires extra attention to details which is, in my opinion, what is lacking.

More guys cosplaying

Obligatory

>>7210413
He should cosplay Ace again.
Or cosplay Kamina

>>7209239

Amen!
