/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

I'll start. This is supposed to be Erwin.

>>7451079
And here's the whole group.

I know this has to have been covered a million times, but where are the best places to buy the uniform?

>>7451086
I don't understand this. Like people go 'IT'S JUST FOR FUN,' but seriously, I don't understand what's fun about halfassing something that you're going to be embarrassed about a year from now.

It's not like it's even that damn hard to buy an outfit that isn't so shitty, or, I don't know, not cosplay at all.

They should at least not get upset when people mock them for not trying at all.

>>7451086
>>7451079
oh gods

It's time to kill titans and chew bubble gum, and this guy's all out of gum.

>>7451185
I like the Levi. I also like that she actually has gray eyes and not blue like i keep seeing. Bright blue contacts and Levi cosplayers make no sense.

>>7451232
ooh boy
while I am kind of in support of using natural hair for Jean if one can pull it off, that does not look good

>>7451232
>>7451306
i didnt even know he was trying to be Jean. His hair is gross, flat , unstyled and too thin.

>>7451272
So many AoT fans have such confusion about eye color it's ridiculous. They think Levi's eyes are bright blue, that Eren's eyes are yellow, that Petra's are blue...

>>7451311
I've heard people say Eren's eyes are yellow. I dont...even get where they got that from. Same with Levi having anything but gray eyes.

>>7451317
ahahaha, how? like 40% of the show is closeups of eren's eyes.

>>7451325
Which happen to be aqua green. Dafuq, where do they get the yellow from?

>>7451317
Levi's eyes are gray in the manga and black in the anime.

I'm probably spending the most time on my 3DGM harness out of my entire SnK cosplay, just so I don't turn out like this.

>>7451185
damn this is actually pretty good. Go you for contributing positively to this shit-show thread

>>7451346
that was my point anon. i don't understand how one can see that many minutes of him staring at things in rage and come away with the wrong eye color in mind

>>7451151
It's the mentality of going to a costume party. You aren't actually trying to look like lady Gaga or Obama, it's just about fitting the theme. Tbh I can't even waste energy discussing what's wrong with the cosplays of people who are doing that -- i mean, they aren't going to care or take the advice, and I find looking at it more boring than funny, so why...?

>>7451388
Oh, I feel guilty for posting all the shit stuff now, anon. Here's something more decent.

>n-not 'cause I care about your opinion or anything!

>>7451397
I don't even understand that. At least half the fun of a real costume party is that everyone looks awful and casual-tier. It's not SUPPOSED to look good.

These people want to look good like other cosplayers do, but are too much of faggots to really try on their costume, or waste too much money. And then they bitch when they get no attention. No one going to a costume party gives a shit if nobody asks for their picture.

>>7451409
oh no! That's not what I meant, I actually enjoy watching these evolve into a competition for "worst version of a character" every single time...

That cloak seriously looks delicious. I hate those fucking polyester pine green ones everyone buys.

>>7451439
If you want a good cloak, pic related.

They were uploaded a few threads ago, but man. I just love their costume construction SO MUCH. The cloak looks so damn comfy, and Levi's cravat is an actual cravat.

>>7451462
oh god this makes me feel pretty good, I'm making one out of some pretty heavy-duty wool right now, gonna be cozy a.f.

The miracle of not using shitty materials.

>>7451462
Yum, I love good cloaks. I love those cosplayers too, they look believable, like they're actually Levi and Hanji. I think I have more of the Levi (pic related).

>>7451474
God, I love wool. Definitely going to be using it on the cloak. Probably will wait until this fall to make it though, wearing wool in the summer seems like suicide.

>>7451504
>YOU AGAIN.
I'm not gonna give you a hard time though.

I need a warm cosplay for Canadian winter cons, so this'll work great. I even considered using wool for the jacket but it's gonna be twill. Secretly hoping for a shivery seifuku qt. to wrap in my cozy cloak.

>>7451317
>>7451346

There is no need to be upset.

Eren's eyes pre-anime release were an appopriately feral gold, like mikasa's scarf was black,the 3dgear was a coffee can, and everyone wore black boots instead of brown.

>>7451504
Oh wow. You again.

Dumpan Reika to cure this thread of that levi-looking-constipated.jpg

>>7451576
Jean best Shingeki.

>>7451581

>>7451584

>>7451586

>>7451537
...No?
In the manga, his eyes are a bluish gray color. Not yellow. Never yellow. Look at your own damn picture, even. They're grey.

>>7451590
Vote for Jean.

>>7451462
The fabric for the cloaks are gorgeous! What a great example how fabric can really make a huge difference in the cosplay. (Like when i see shitty jackets made of pleather, i want to cry.)

I love this photo so much.

>>7451537
Eren's eyes have never ever been yellow.

>>7451590
Jean? yikes.
Reika though.

>>7451576
How about instead, we dump cosplayers that actually understand makeup?

>>7451537
Where the fuck do you even see the yellow?

>>7451637
sweet jesus this is hilarious.

>>7451637
Aside from the eyebrows, i do like the make up.
I'm more confused by the corduroy jacket.

>>7451602
>shitty jackets made of pleather

That must be one of my biggest pet peeves too.

>>7451653
Never liked it either.
But the makeup is still a million times better than Reika's.
Her construction is average-tier, and her makeup is atrocious and the same for every damn character she does(minus Levi, she adds a black line between her eyebrows for that).

>>7451661
Damn, that Hanji is pretty hot.

>>7451661
That's because Reika does the typical asian white eyeliner with lashes galore make up for every male character and still gets praised. I don't know why.

>>7451637
>Reika
>not understanding makeup

That's some intense contouring right there. Works for me.

>>7451576
>>7451581
>>7451584
>>7451586
>>7451597
Why everyone supports the female asian Shingekis with the uglyass makeup, trying to look literally like anime, I don't know. A more natural manly look is so much better and doesn't look so stupid and fake. Like this dude, sure his hair isn't perfect but I prefer him 10x over.
Overmakeupped Jeans are better than Erens though, cuz at least Jean kinda looks like he has eyeliner.

>>7451686
>trying to look like actual anime
>good make up

Go back to kissing reika's ass somewhere else

>>7451661
Onnies is adorable

>>7451912
IS that Levi really that pale or it's just makeup?

>>7451615
>dat sweat spot

>>7451965
Both.

>>7451928
>>7451912
No. Please not von. didnt we have enough of her corpse like Levi in the last thread?

>>7451965
She's pale and uses make up to look worse.

>>7451912
I'm confused, because i know she uses her real hair for Levi, but her hairline looks fake and it's freaking me out.
Also, that horrible make up. Why so much black for no reason?

>>7451705
I dont like his hair, but his face cracks me up. Like that Jean has seen some shit.

I'm really interested in cosplay as levi, and I'm getting undercuts for that, however I'm rather unconfident in styling my real hair and keeping it throughout the convention.

I've been considering of using a wig and then cut it to suit my needs since wigs are much more permanent. I've been looking up lace front wig due to the way levi's hair are parted (lace front looks more natural), and this is the cheapest wig i've come across on aliexpress so far.

Do you guys have any experiences working with it? Any suggestions? Or tips on styling natural hair?

>>7452020
Adding to that, or should I just use a regular, unlaced synthetic wig instead? I am mainly worried about the issue of styling, and his hairline.

>>7451232
Does not look like Jean, but at least he has maneuver gear. I'd say 95% of AoT cosplays I saw had no maneuver gear.

>>7451232
Are we not going to talk about the lady in the back? Because I feel like this needs to be addressed.

>>7452184
Oh my god, that's priceless

>>7451185
Fucking finally a Levi without retarded makeup.

>>7451086
>Everyone but the cleaning Levi chick
Why bother even cosplaying if you're not even going to attempt to do it correctly.
This is a shameful photo and they should feel ashamed.

>>7452162
>but at least he has maneuver gear. I'd say 95% of AoT cosplays I saw had no maneuver gear.

I prefer no gear usually. They are seen without a a lot so it's perfectly canon to not have it on.
I also prefer no gear cause it requires effort to make it look like it should and hardly anyone does that.
If they do the gear I like the smaller ones with 4 swords instead of 6. Seems much more maneuverable like that.

I...I think that's a belt buckle.......

>>7452403
ffs, it is a belt buckle

>>7452368
why didnt he paint the 3d gear? lazy

>>7452297
nightmare fuel

>>7451912
>fat faced hange with shitty barely trimmed wig and incorrect glasses
>von corpse and the 'scene kid after gym class' makeup
Why are these guys so popular again? I do like the brocade accents, though.

>>7451185
Oh god, more of this Levi please? I like the minimal make up look a lot.

I honestly think this person shopped the hell out of their face and made their already yaoi chin look even worse.

Why would you do that to yourself.

>>7452410
No they've actually gotten better at posing they just have a massive underbite... tbh if that's the only critique of the outfit then I frankly don't care

>>7452407
Because haku loves to play the victim of 'i post everywhere but please dont hate me desu' card a lot. They're beyond average tier, but somehow rack up a huge fan following for doing jack shit irl. I'm sick of seeing corpse Levi and girl fake boi Eren everywhere honestly.

>>7452410
>not pointing out the CORDUROY JACKET

I'll be cosplaying Levi this year and I would like some tips on how to avoid looking like some emo kid/corpse...
Thing is that I have very thick eyebrows, even when I pluck them they are imho still way to thick for Levi. So the only option I can think of is glueing my brows, and draw brows over them.
Is it really such a bad thing to do? Or is it ok when it's done well?

>>7452406
that's based on the anime version 3dmg

>>7452408

>>7452297
They look like Realdolls.

What is it about this damn series that brings out all the truly horrifying makeup?

'My friggin awesome Annie Leonhardt cosplay and especially angry eye make up'

>>7452615

>>7452616
well it looks pretty good from the waist down

>>7451311
Petra is blonde and blue eyed in the manga.

Does anyone have a pattern of Survey Corps's jacket? The store where I wanted to buy it got sold out.

>>7452921
I wonder if this is ok?

>>7452928

>>7452928
>>7452933
Totally! Thank you, anon!

>>7452407
thanks for the critique! i'm the hanji, and i'm definitely looking into getting new glasses and improving my wig. as for my face, while i can't change it, i'll keep practicing makeup techniques. i'll use your words to improve \o/

>>7452504
If you do it right and cover the whole eyebrow, multiple layers, make sure the glue stays flat and powder the shit out of it it looks fine... might take some practice though

>>7455360

>>7455452

>>7455453

>>7455455

>>7455024
Do you know good tutorials on how cover eyebrows? I only know these-

>>7456288
>>7456295
Why does the Armin look so old

>>7456029
They look nice but everyone over did it in the eyebrow dept. Gotta tone that down just a smidge.

>>7456288
Ooo Nice. Helmet hair on Armin but everything else looks nice and those belts look nice in place.

>>7456295
Like it. Very clean looking indeed.

>>7455452
>>7455455
>>7455456
I just now noticed all the ones I posted are from the back. A lot of the time that is what looks best. Your mind can fill in the rest with people who look spot on in your mind.

>>7452921

Does anyone know if the StoreEnvy pattern will be resold/re-uploaded?

>>7456500

Because you can't stop age. Hardly anyone who wants to cosplay Armin well is going to look as young as he does.>>7456500

sigh.

>>7456825
Christ I JUST saw that on cos.com and was on my way over here to post it.

>>7456825
Is it based off of some fannart or the game or something?

>>7456834

Yeah I wasn't gonna but then I was like...yeah, it kinda belongs here.
I'm all for interesting ideas and ways to stand out but this was just such a bad idea.
I've seen a wedding dress Christa too with a survey corps jacket on.

The only character that the wedding dress thing might work on is Petra. It might work well if she got a good looking Levi to dress up in wedding attire too.

okay what the fuck

>>7456877
wow. just no.

Gah, everyday someone makes me so grateful that the internet wasn't a thing when I was like 16. Now all these people have these permanent embarrassing things for all the world to see.

>>7456877

>>7456875
>The only character that the wedding dress thing might work on is Petra. It might work well if she got a good looking Levi to dress up in wedding attire too.
Shipperfag everyone

>>7451705
Fucking seconded.

>>7456825
maybe she was going for this?

>>7457411
>she

>>7451656
waiting for someone to make a meat dress armored titan

>>7457411
why would someone cosplay from this? that's pretty shit taste right there.

>>7456875
no one in AOT belongs in a wedding dress. Stop that.

>>7456877
I watched this about five times in a row because I couldn't figure out what they were doing right away.

Jesus tap dancing Christ, NO!

There was a really cute Armin at last year's Otakuthon... probably the only one I've ever seen. Looking back on it now, the snk cosplayers seem to be a lot higher tier than anywhere else...
>Everyone had decent belts
>Most has 3dmg
>Minimal/no hambeasts
>People without wigs didn't even try passing off as characters, just went nope random dead soldier
>Lots of qts guys and girls
>No shitty genderbend

>>7457537
I'm so sick of the Jean/horse jokes though. I mean, where did that even come from? I see Jean/horse jokes or Jean cosplayers in the horse mask and it just makes me grind my teeth.

>>7457530
There's a whole gif set of her doing this too.

>>7457544
Im not sure myself but apparently Armin in one of the episodes says something along the lines of "Is that Jean or a horse or something" and Eren repeatedly calls him horseface and then Tumblr happened

>>7456295
This Eren is so cute and they actually have a good wig. I'm so happy.

>>7452928
>>7452933
You are awesome, anon

>laughing though because the jacket is made out of wrong fabric. why japan

>>7456029
>those bright blue contacts for Erwin
no

>>7456288
Is this nyc?

>>7457554
God damn it, really? That's so stupid.

>>7457554
Armin didn't say that, what the hell

>>7457544
The part where Jean disguised as Eren and Armin said that Eren and Jean are similar in some ways, in which Eren said 'I'm not like that horseface' (something like that)

I like this Jean's wig and jacket.

>>7457550
Thank you for not posting all of them and posting what I hope is the least offensive one. SnK fandom on tumblr is a horrible cancer.

Speaking of which, which series of really bright gray contacts would you guys recommend?
My eyes are dark brown.

>>7457760
I personally use Dollyeye in grey because they're really opaque. Not the most natural looking but I like that they have a smaller pupil hole.
Twilight in grey would also work-- I own them in yellow and red and they're also solidly opaque but they have a bigger pupil hole and are slightly less natural looking than even Dollyeye.

>>7457760
I'm thinking in buying EOS New Adult Gray Circle Lens. I have the Purple version.

>>7457537
Quebec Shingekis are seriously the best of the best. 90% sexy, legal and well-made outfits. I live in Ottawa and I swear it happens as soon as you cross the bridge, I just can't explain it.

>>7457760
>Speaking of which, which series of really bright gray contacts would you guys recommend?
>My eyes are dark brown.


I use colorMax gray on my dark brown eyes.
They look surprisingly natural.

If I wear them out of costume someone always notes what a pretty eye color I was given.

This was taken with flash.

>>7458002
>Dat jacket.

>>7457787
Is dollyeye grey on the left? they look great. I do love how opaque they are.

>>7458245

I like it too but it needs more interfacing and a better looking hem.

But that piping and the beautiful blue they chose look nice.

>>7458246
Yep it is-- I've been using Dollyeye in different colors for years so I'm super biased. They're visible even from afar and in low lighting, even in their darker colors, and their grey is so pale that it's even more obvious.
Some people complain about them coming off as white but honestly I think it's a good clear shade of grey and the smaller pupil hole is a plus especially if you're using them for a Levi cosplay.

(saging for a combination of spam of my eyes and my shitty asian style makeup)

I do enjoy a nice horse riding pic.

Pls 8

No bully

>>7460953
my face when i opened the picture

>>7458002
Is that Shikarius? Haven't seen that particular cosplay but dammnnn it looks good.

>>7461455
so much shoop
and what's the flag? they aren't fighting a revolution against the titans. the fuck

>>7461485

I'm alright with the shoop, it looks stylized I guess. I have a problem with shoop with people make themselves look plastic or completely different with how they actually look.

The flag though? It could just as easily be a rally flag to have to remember what you came to do...

That meme with the snow in Japan.

>>7461502
the what? what snow meme?

don't know what the heck is going on with the vampire look

>>7461511
shit is that angry wario levi on the left?

>>7461517
In doesn't snow a lot in Tokyo but they got a nice one recently and so the news crews went out to talk to people about it.

They stopped a couple and asked them what they thought of the weather and the guy said the cutest most sappy thing about enjoying it with his girlfriend and that it gave him a special feeling inside.
The girl was mortified and cutely hid her face behind her hands in what everyone presumes was embarrassment over her boyfriend expressing himself in a way most Japanese are uncomfortable with.

It took off and japanese fan artists everywhere started substituting every character ever for the boy and girl.

>>7461528
>this
Bat get out I'm piss.

I like the proper shirt. Most people buy a too big hoodie made out of too thich material and forget to take the pouch pocket off.
I like the gray pants.

Why do people do leather look coats? Did they not pay attention to the show?

Is it okay to post my wip cosplay?

I only have the harness and the skirt so far and it looks bad since i put it once and it needs some modifications to look decent.

>>7463072
let us see, you'll probably get shit on by some people but we can help you out with anything that needs fixing. I'm making this thing too right now.

>>7461659
I figured they'd be suede if anything.

>>7463075
Aight.

Things to do.
>Extend the side belt since they are too short for my torso and hold the belt too high.
>put the upper chest belt buckle in the middle.
>put the thigh belt buckes upfront(i put them in the back side of the belt for some reason) and make the thigh belts to be more tight around my thighs so that they don't drop.
>make the sides of the skirt to go further down to cover more of the belt that connects the thigh part with the torso part(i actually folded it under it self to not look massive, but i got it wrong). Also fold it more on the middle part.

I am open to suggestions anon.

>>7463092
wowza, who are you going to be?
I'm not a huge fan of t he material you picked for the butt skirt, looks a bit too plastic-y

Other than that all I can recommend is sewing belt loops into your pants to hold the thigh belts up. It's totally worth it to make sure you don't get knee belts.

>>7463116
>wowza, who are you going to be?
Not sure, i guess i am going to be Eren because i don't really look closer like any other recognisable character. Dunno if i get a wig or style my hair like his since it's kind of close to his hair length. I could just do a random character though.

>I'm not a huge fan of t he material you picked.
Yeah, me neither to be honest, i could do something else with another material.

I can recommend is sewing belt loops into your pants.
Yeah , i could do that in the back side of my pants. Should i get skinny white jeans?

>>7463166
>tightening the belts so they stay up
Don't go down that painful route anon they will not stay up and all it will do is cut off circulation until they fall
>Should i get skinny white jeans?
Yes, although if you can find some jeggings that would work better. Don't think they make them for guys though.
Sew loops on the inseam of whatever pants you are using and put the thigh belts through you will save yourself so much pain.

Does anyone have that cosplayer that was in the 3dmg with just panties and a bra on under it? I think she was supposed to be annie.

>>7463092
You're very cute.

>>7452615
>>7452616
Was she at Anime Boston...? I think we were on the elevator together, we walked to bag check together, too, and ended up talking. She didn't have a bag though, so she got to skip the line. She was very nice, but yeah the lip ring and nose contouring was... Eh...
(If it's not her, she has a doppelganger with the same makeup and lip ring and I'll feel dumb.)

>>7456029

>>7463081
No, you moron, they wouldn't be . Low stock animals, plus they'd over heat like hell in suede

>>7463092
Please be my husbando, Berthold (Jean's fine too)

>>7457544
somebody didn't read the manga.
Eren calls Jean a horseface... Two? Three times? Somewhere around there.
I honestly think the cosplays are funny unless the person is taking themselves TOO seriously.

>>7464872
Read the manga before anime came out. 2 times constitutes a fucking not funny, drawn out reason for people to wear horse masks? Ok anon

>>7464905
Woah woah, don't get your panties in a bunch! If you read the manga (and stayed up to date, don't know if you stopped reading it or what.) then you would have known where it stemmed from. Maybe you just forgot, but still. Don't get mad at me because you did. Also, two times constitutes as a "people can find funny whatever they want to find funny." I'm not gonna bash on you because you don't find it funny, but I'm not going to bash on the people who find it to be, either.
I'll just restate my opinion: It's funny unless they take themselves too seriously. Once they take themselves too seriously, it stops being funny and becomes annoying. (And clarifying, not in a "oh my god can't breathe I'm laughing" kind of funny, but a snort-chuckle, move on with my day kind of funny.)

>>7464914
I definitely forgot because those chapters happened years ago. I'm actually not upset or anything, sorry if you read it that way.

>>7464924
Yeah it didn't read too bad until the end. It seemed a tad passive aggressive, though. Thanks, though, it takes guts to admit you worded something weird.
Don't worry about it, I know what it's like forgetting the little things, I probably would have forgotten if Jean wasn't my favorite (living) character.

Semi new to the SnK cosplay scene (don't follow many SnK fans, haven't seen many cosplayers online and been on a cosplay hiatus for a year) and while looking up refs for inspiration, seriously what is the appeal with the weird makeup every single Levi cosplayer seems to have? Is this a new thing in cosplay to get away from the natural?

He just has a brooding expression and narrow eyes, I don't get why everyone is drawing extra eyelids and contouring with black all over their faces. His eyes remind me of Ryuuji from Toradora and I've never seen a cosplay of him do anything like that.

>>7465933
God I really hate that cosplayer

>>7465972
who's that?

>>7465933
>>7465979

http://shikarius.tumblr.com/

I like her costuming, she's good at it. But it feels like since she got all that popularity from the stupid ask blog, she let it all to her head. Not to mention as anon said, the make up for Levi is horrid. I don't understand the heavy make up on his eyes at all.

>>7465979
A former tripfag. She has a following and that the only reason she's so popular.

>>7466070
She was a tripfag? Didn't know that much.

>>7466513
What is even going on with that Annie.
> That jacket
> That shitty contouring
> That bad eye-makeup
> That massive-ass forehead
> Those nonexistent eyebrows

>>7466513
>>7466566


I think that's just Reika modelling for Annie wig.

>>7466590
I had a feeling it was Reika, but I wasn't sure.
But god, that is definitely the worst Annie I've ever seen. Usually the ones I see are at least halfway decent. But that....

>>7452415
I've heard that haku is really obnoxious and whiny irl, is that true? I've looked up to her for a long time but now I don't know what to think.

>>7466070
i don't think she was a tripfag; i just remember her namefagging for a while when she was doing the patches

>>7451385

the only thing actually bad about this cosplay is the wig and the straps not being flush against the leg. You're still going to look mediocre if you just focus on the 3DMG

>>7470163
Cute Hanji but that jacket color though.....

some people needs to stop contouring

Goddamit, she's pouting in like every picture but she made a very good Eren IMO. Didn't like her Jean or Levi cosplay much but she was a pretty cute Annie too.

Yamaki, she's a South African cosplayer. She's most active on facebook.

Wow, Attack on Titan cosplays are already played out. Such a shame, but guess that's the fate anything even remotely popular has to get. Same thing is gonna happen with Kill la Kill. Why can't people be more original and choose something less well known?

>>7470965
>>original
>>choose something less known

oh anon..

>>7470942
Her nose looks deformed as hell.

>>7470959
Oh, yeah. Real jelly. Jelly of >>7466513
Fucking monstrosity.

>>7456295
pretty good eren except for the gay shoes
but mikasa and armin look old enough to be his parents

>>7456559
what a shit excuse
lots of youngins play armin, you're retarded

her 3DMG is better than 99% of other SNK cosplayers tbh

>>7470979
I don't understand why people even try to cosplay young versions of characters when they clearly can't pass.
It's like how everyone and their mom would try to cosplay Chibitalia.
Just. Why.

>>7470983
Probably because she bought it, right?

>>7470983
I like how you picked a small picture, though.
Any bigger and you'd realize how poorly-constructed it is.

>>7470987
she made it. I don't have the pics right now but she did posted a lot of progress pics. It's pretty much made of a lot of junk

Hm i think it look great when she first made it but since she travelled around the world with that 3dmg, I'm sure it affected the quality somehow.

Whose 3dmg is your favourite, seagulls? And no, that almost-real 3dmg didn't count since it's not by cosplayer.

>>7470994
It's not BAD, but... It's definitely not good, either.
All the edges look like shit and she just used some crappy spraypaint to make it look "cool."
Though it really just makes it look like it's been through hell. A 3DMG shouldn't be so beaten up, especially not Levi's.

I'll never understand why they paint her as some kind of fucking cosplay goddess. She's average at best.

>>7471007
She cosplay characters from various manga/anime/game series so I think that's why many people knows about her. She also cosplay from highly popular series, so..

I'm curious how she get popular quickly, though. I didn't follow cosplay much since 2009 until 2013 and suddenly her popularity just skyrocketed. I still remember visiting her website in mid 2000s to view her cosplay. Even back then, she wasn't even in top 10 of cosp.jp ranking (Kaname was among top 5 back then, and is the most popular male cosplayer). Is it because of worldcosplay?

>>7470982
>what a shit excuse

Says the retard who didn't post a pic of a young Armin.
Good job there.

>>7471134

speaking of young Armins, I would like to see older versions of the characters.

Older Armin is kinda hot.
Though it might be a bit harder to translate --this is a canon character but older-- when people are having trouble with the standard uniforms looking right.

>>7470866
I think I will fix this in photoshoop later if I can.

Cause it's a good pic if not for that nose contour.

>>7471152
I will love you if you do. I like the idea of the picture, but right now it just looks to "eh" for me to save it.

>>7470866
>>7471158

Does this help or did I take off too much?

>>7470983

Her swords are terrible and ruin the immersion of the photos, They just look so cheap.

But beyond that, why does her and everyone else get the dimension on the boxes so wrong? They're actually long and skinny and less boxy. I get that Reika at least did manga version but I never noticed a difference between the medias...maybe I'm wrong?

>>7471467
Thank you anon, that's great!

that moment of sweet relief when you see your AoT cosplay isn't in here

what do ya'll think about making the uniform jacket sherpa lined? it seems to me it would look more completed and nicer over all. also, is canvas the best material for the outer part of the jacket?

>>7472047

Sherpa lined? Is it cold where you are?

Bottom weight poplin is what most people are making theirs out of.

Traditional canvas might be a little too heavy.

>>7471563
I don't like Reika's gear either, but honestly there's no solid reference for the correct dimensions of the gear. I spent 3 months collecting references for scaling the gear and I swear to God that SnK has some of the laziest animators ever. Panel to panel of the manga the gear drastically changes size (compare the manga covers, sometimes they're thin and long, other times it's like they have cardboard boxes taped to their legs), the colours constantly shift for the gear in the anime (4 people will be in the frame and yet their grear will all have different colouring and details), and the figures all vary from character to companies and ect.

>>7472472

Agreed. I thought it was just me but the 3DMG seemed to look different every time I scrutinized it.

I personally like the 4 blade slot type that are somewhat slimmer than the boxy ones. (pic related) They seem more maneuverable for the stuff the characters have to do.

Like the faces and the straps.
Crappy jackets though. Just an ironing might help

I don't know what they made their jackets out of but it looks interesting.
I don't like the leather look because of the setting for the story but I do like how strangely matte these look. Kinda like how the jacket looks on a figurine.

>>7472472
They have measurements in the guide book.

>>7472503
oh dear god their faces are so shopped

why are so many snk cosplayers frightening hambeasts only out to get their otp?

a greasy, unwigged levi armed with a pink feather boa harassed the erwin in my group at kitacon last weekend, and made us both very uncomfortable when i was sat on his lap for lack of seats later on that evening by asking to join us, as if squashing into one chair was incredibly sexy

gross

>>7472472
isayama draws really quickly
everything changes sizes, everyone has like 7 different faces, the scale is constantly out of whack

dont use the manga for reference, he lays a page down in like maybe 8 minutes

>>7470987
because people can cosplay whatever they want. Honestly, the Mikasa and Eren look fine. I like their kid outfits too. get over it. if you dont like it, don't cosplay from it or look at photos if they bother you so.

>>7471140
Armin would look so much better with a shorter, actual boycut.
And damn it,i hate bolo ties. lol

>>7472472
Isayama is a shit artist. I would personally go with what >>7472489 said and do four panels instead of six. Give it a smaller, but slimmer design. It looks better irl that way too.

>>7472993
I thought this thing here was gospel. That's what I used for my own cosplay, precious reference !

>>7472503
I'm pretty sure the matte look is because everything in that photo has been shooped to hell and back. Look at Mikasa's hand...

>>7474190
>all that shoop
>couldn't fix the disturbing pointy head on Mikasa

Why.

>>7472974
Yeah, people can cosplay whatever they want, but that doesnt mean they're excused from looking like shit, and they shouldn't get a gold star for that in a hobby based on aesthetics

>>7472974
Calm your tits. I could say the same thing about you.

> 'People can bitch about whatever they want. Get over it. If you don't like it, don't go on cgl or look at comments of what people say about cosplays if it bothers you so.'

They can cosplay whatever they want, but I reserve my right to bitch about whatever I want.

those goddamn 'freckles'

I'm picking up the fabric for the basic coat today, and I was wondering if any seagulls had opinions on the lining fabric. I'm kind of afraid of going with the basic (shiny) cheap lining fabric because I believe most of the China made coats are lined with it, and I'd rather not match them. How do you think a cotton broadcloth would work?

>>7474180
That....is beautiful anon. Thank you for giving me the Holy Grail.

Hey guys, I know this is probably a stupid question, but what do you think Mikasa's scarf should be made of?

>>7475304
Wool or the like. Preferably woven. The scarf doesn't drape like a knitted scarf. Pashminas look to flimsy.

>>7474748
Is the world really that ignorant on how freckles work? I mean, i have them and know lots of people with freckles. It's not a rarity.

>>7474388
sandy sandy sandy
Clean out your dusty fucking cunt.

>>7475279

I think you want something smooth as the lining. You have to wear a shirt and the gear under it so it will help you if the fabrics can slide against one another.

You can get a cotton sateen if you just HAVE to have a better quality than the Chinese ones. But the face that you are making it will probably make it somewhat better than the Chinese ones if you are a good tailor.

>>7476550
Tuck the shirt in
Iron the jacket with some starch
Wear the butt cape OVER the straps.

>>7476550
Girl looks like someone I used to know named Leah, crazy

Have some ridic cute Marco with decent freckles.

and some super shooped Ymir

>>7475304
I bought my scarf from a Ardene, if you have one around, and it looks really good. It's made with some fabric called viscosa, although google is telling me it's actually viscose.

Commencing Soratane dump just because.

I know it's not "cosplay" per se but I still enjoy her pictures. End of dump~

>>7477117

Wow she's pretty good at looking like anyone.
I wish my face could do that.

Forever brown and matching no one.

Where is the best place to get a white hooded top for Annie. Both ebay and my local thrift store are only bringing up bulky sweaters.

>>7476963
so freckles = marco cosplay now? he didn't even bother to part his hair correctly.

Does anyone have these boots or know what the calf circumference is? The size chart says 44 cm but that's probably for the very top of the leg opening. The reviews go back and forth between roomy and too tight.

>>7477117
that body. Does she have a tumblr or instag to follow?

>>7477253
>buy one piece hoodie
>remove pocket
>???
>profit?

>>7478309
They're all bulky. I'm looking for a hooded shirt not one made of sweater material.

>>7478520
Can you make one? Trace a long sleeved tee-shirt for a pattern and add a hood.

I just finished my jacket and I feel super proud.
It's fully lined and fits well! I'm glad I used duck cloth

>>7478533
Hoodies are easy to make. Anon just sounds lazy

>>7478743
That looks realllllly good! I'm glad it turned out well for you. It's always do satisfying to make your own stuff in the hoards of shitty china jackets.,

does anyone know where I can find a cheap back patch (recon corps) I know there's the ones on ebay, but anywhere elese?

>>7478743
Please iron it more or something, because it looks oddly puffy right now.

>>7478308
I think that's actually the one Mikasa cosplayer who's actually a guy.
Might be mistaken though.

>>7478827
yeah, I need to go over all the seams

>>7478308

Her instagram is posted on her tumblr somewhere.

>>7478828
She's not a guy she's just a ~lesbian~ lol.

>>7476555
Ironed it today as ordered. As for the apron, its difficult to get it to go under the belt and over the straps due to the costume design, Im working on fixing it.

>>7476560
I used to play a character named Leah on World of Warcraft....

>>7478283
It's 18cm measured flat at the widest part of the calf. My calves are 29cm and I can slip them on easily without using the zipper.

>>7477253

>>7478746
That's not really lazy. You can buy a thin hooded top like Annie's usually so why make it.

I don't know where everyone gets their white skinny jeans/pants because every single time i find a pair they have fake pockets and i just

hate fake pockets with a burning passion.

>>7479173
I bought white jeggings which are basically just stretchy jeans from an Urban planet at some point and thank fuck they have pockets
Whoever invented fake pockets deserves to be burned at the stake.

>>7479183
Oh, jeggings have pockets? I've never owned a pair, so I wouldn't know.

Yes. burned at the stake. Amen.

>>7479121
Thank you! How tall is the boot, not counting the heel and what size did you get/ how is the fit? Sorry for all the questions.

rule 63 jean that I would possibly go a little gay for...
