Source on her?

>>7564974
She's quantumdestiny and her twin sister glay/glayish is the one whose Satsuki progress was posted along with hers.

>>7564968
Oh wow. I really like the setting for that photo. The costunes are k, and Gama always missing, but this looks really cool.

>>7565547
That... Looks like a massive circle jerk

>>7565558
i think thats the point..

Ok so im cosplaying iori and i finally got my wig in the mail. I need to style it more, but im not sure how to begin fixing his odd band like pieces. I am currently making my respirator with acrylic. Heres a pic of what i have so far. tell me what ya think.
Also excuse my slight redness of the face, i get nervous when taking pictures.

>>7564352
WHY would you cut the wig like that? I saw in progress posts of this and she definitely started with a longer wig so.... why??

Will we ever get a good Ragyo wig that doesn't just use a flat rainbow panel?

>>7564968
Someone in the AN group is trying Berserk!Ryuko, let me see if i can find the post.

>>7565706

I really want to do Maiko Ōgure, but I'm unsure if I want to do Senketsu mode or the fake broken arm version. Any ideas?

>>7565769
If you care about being recognizeed, definitely do her Senketsu version

>>7565769
>>7565774
I'd recognize the fake broken arm version.

Any good Nui's lately? Has anyone tried Nonon's heart-C-string outfit?

i. i dont even know where to start.

>>7565807
I was literally about to post that... to be honest, with the bow it might look kind of cool.

>>7565811
>>7565807
Yeah, let's wait and see how the rest of the cosplay will go.

>>7565811
That's kind of funny actually! I might look nice with the bows, but I wish it hard more volume and the bangs were more finished. I think he actually connection is good.

>>7565813
*it, typo

While on the topic, /r/ Harime Nui cosplays please?

>>7565547
>flabby Ryuko on the side wishing she agreed to join in

Does anyone have a good tutorial on making a good trim for the elite four's uniforms?

>>7565547
that aikuro is so gross. i need eye bleach. i need a lot of it. why are guys so disgusting looking.

>>7565821
Fresh off tumblr and facebook Nui dump

>>7565992

and this trainwreck for a self-esteem boost

>>7565995
Even though her wig isn't the huge drills, I think she is super cute.

wish i could see the rest of this dress though

oh and I found this on instagram, looks like it's gonna be... interesting.

>>7565997
Nui fucked up. Patch is on the wrong eye.

>>7566008
Are.... are the pigtails made of expanding foam? I'm note sure how I feel.

>>7566006
You can kinda see the full outfit here. She was at Megacon

>>7565992
everything else is kind of meh, but Dat Scissor

>>7565943
I'm also wondering about this. Source on the pic at least?

>>7565992
Damn, learn to katakana

>>7566046
no... no. that's so sad...

>>7566046
Satsuki and Mako should've switched costumes.

>>7566007
this is pretty nice, but the fibers on the unhemmed edges...

>>7565807

Look at how huge that bitch's house is

I apartment dwelling jelly

>>7566046
That's a pretty unfortunate group.

What the hell even is that Sanageyama's wig?

>>7566076
>Western cosplay in charge of being not shit

Where's flabby Nonon? Acen is over so there should be pics up somewhere.

>>7567028
unf, dose Maguma mantitties

>tfw no half-black bf who wishes he were white with gynecomastia

So i just saw this on my feed. I'm not too fond of the bangs, but hopefully she fixes it, or does something else with them.

She doesn't seem to have a good face for Ragyo though, hopefully she goes all out with the make-up.

>>7565995
>>7566003
I think that these two are cute.

>>7565586
That wig is really frizzy, you should probably try to fix that.

>>7567323
yeah, it was giving me some trouble with frizzyness.But I am not an expert on styling wigs, is there anything you would recommend for removing frizz?

>>7567412
I don't have anything specific I've tried, but here is a link:

>>7566064
That's my coat. Here's the other pic that goes with it. basically its just vinyl "costume fabric" sewn on with thick string and wire folded over 3 times to keep its shape. I inserted cardstock-like paper into the ends to give it the triangle edge.

>>7567874
I screen capped this a while ago

>>7565943
Looks great so far.
How did you make the cones?
(Sorry if silly question, I'm not that good at making things)

>>7568001
ah thanks I'm tired of typing the same thing. I never remade the coat like I said but I'm working on his Black/Gold coat now.

>>7568022
similar way. Used the same bristol board i used in the collar and rolled them into cones. I covered it in the material.

/r/ gamagooris? im making him myself and i wanna see how others have done.

good and bad. i need to know what to avoid

>>7568056

>>7568062
>>7568056
dat angle work

>>7568056
>>7568062
Why are her bangs so short and why is her makeup so bad

>>7568062
Did she just forget to make a shirt/collar?

>>7568080
>>7568076
I've seen these around Tumblr. They're WIP, but I'm not sure which parts are still unfinished, aside from the wig.

I do agree that the bangs are too short though. I'm assuming she styled them on the wighead.

So this is my kinagase cosplay, it's almost done... hair isn't up right now and adding the spindle grenades now, what do yall think? go easy on me it's my second cosplay ever....

>>7565982

>>7568097

>>7568097
please lose weight before you wear that.

>>7568132
>>7568136
The responses I expected.

Yes I know I'm fat, any real criticism?

>>7568148
clean your mirror

>>7568097
Do you even lift

>>7568148
Get a little tan, either spray or otherwise,and yeah get some defined muscles.

also make-up is your friend.

>>7567234
she said on her tumblr she was going to thin the bangs out but i still cant get over that blunt cut and honestly she cut the bangs too short to properly fucking thin out and it's driving me to drink the bottle of wine I bought for the purpose of cooking.

>>7568148
You're cosplaying an incredibly ripped brown guy as a fat white guy. I'm not sure what you're expecting. You'll at least be wearing makeup and a wig, right?

>>7568097
You should really get a wig. Even if you spike it up, it's far too thin to look good. Arda's Rufio isn't 100% perfect but will look better than your own hair.

>>7568180
Don't do it anon, just think about how good the food will taste!!

But i agree, before i posted it here i tried to check out her other cosplays, and idk i don't think she'll be able to pull Ragyo off, especially make-up wise..

>>7568097
>cgl - be a model/woman or don't even try

Good to know that I'm not welcome here. Thanks for straightening that out guys.

>>7568251
Holy shit what do you want, a sticker? You're cosplaying out of your body type, you need a wig, and your construction is mediocre. We're being honest. We're not here to make you feel good about yourself.

>>7568251

>>7568258
What character in anything is my body type, please let me know.

>>7568265
Mako's Dad???

>>7568265
Mr. Makanshokou? It's not the show's job to cater to fat people. If you want to cosplay 99% of anime or game characters, lose weight.

>>7568251
Did you forget where you are posting?

I think I may have found the laziest Junketsu eyes ever, just popped up on my fb feed.

>>7568275
No, this is like, my first time on here. It's nice of you all to let me know where your standards lie.

>>7568282
Yeah, you should try /r9k/. They're more accepting of your type.

>>7568282
Check the 'fatties doing it right' threads. Fat people are welcome here if they know what they're doing and use it to their advantage. People who are inaccurate will get ripped apart - fat, thin, male, female. You can wallow in self-pity and grease or you could improve yourself, either by losing weight or by cosplaying to your body type. Nobody is here to pat you on the ass and tell you what a great job you're doing cosplaying someone you look nothing like.

>>7568291
I'm not arguing that I'm not fat. I know I am, and I have been dieting and exercising to try and lose weight. The reason I posted was to get something other than "you're fat lose weight". I posted for actual advice.

>>7568056

>>7568076
>>7568080
>>7568084
Oh hey this is me. Yeah I'm not done with the wig yet, and I agree that the bangs are a little too short. I should secure the wig down in the front more, because it kept sliding back... I've finished the whole cosplay minus the wig; however, I was at a friend's house while taking these, and while I was there I just finished the cape and the wig wefting. I'm hoping to post a full pic soon. Do you think you could provide some makeup suggestions? I know I need to find new fake lashes, but I'm very, very open to makeup suggestions as I'm pretty bad at makeup.

>>7568301
>>7568097
I held back because I knew they'd rip you apart, but anyway.

It's not bad for a second cosplay.
I'm not sure if Shapewear for men exists, but cutting down on your middle would help tremendously with Tsumugu's shape, as would bulking up your arms. If you intend to keep cosplaying him, it's something you can work on.
As for the actual outfit itself, the excess part of your belt should be sticking out opposite to the jigsaw-puzzle thing on the shirt/vest. It seems your image is mirrored, so the belt is on the wrong side, basically.
The collar is a little too tall, it should reach to an inch or so below your ears.
Your pauldron seems a bit small, or you're missing the belt that attaches it to the vest/shirt. I can't tell if you have it, but you're supposed to have a belt that goes across the top of your chest that holds the pauldron and spools in place.
I'd try to make bigger pouches on your belt, as well.

In pictures, lift your chin. And good luck.

>>7568327
Thank you, this is the kind of thing I was looking for.

>>7568121
just seeing this picture makes me want to cosplay him next year

>>7566017
i think it's just a base to layer hair on

>>7566008
not sure if angle but why is her scissor blade so short

>>7568198
i'll probably have atleast half a bottle of wine left when i'm done but I have to use restraint until then.

>>7568325
lessen the color and amount of eye shadow, normal Ragyo doesn't have any its harlequin Ragyo that has the dense eye shadow . Also stop doing whatever it is thats causing those weird silver/shiny beads on your eyelashes and lower eye those are kinda off putting and gross. Finally use a dark grey for eyebrow work, Ragyo doesn't have purple eye brows. Other than that your wig seem ok and you have a cute face.

>>7568411
Thank you so much! I'll definitely keep this advice in mind.

>>7568265
Suzuki? The guy that Gamagori beats the shit out of in the beginning, I'd commend someone for doing that.

>>7568417
Different anon but also try a more...prideful or confident eyebrow? I don't know how you feel about covering your eyebrows up with makeup.

You're not looking for a fierce Satsuki kinda piercing gaze and brow, mostly just confidence, the current eyebrow you tested makes you look like you're sad.

>>7568429
i was tryin so hard to forget about this one.

>>7568325
-Invest in a good eyeliner. Also buy some primer so it stays in place.
-Drop the eyeshadow. She's not wearing eyeshadow in her normal attire.
-Your eyeliner wing should be less bold, and the attempt of creating lashes in your lower lid has to go. Invest in individual fake lashes to add the effect.
-Drop those stones in your lids.
-Ragyou's brow aren't purple or lilac. They should also go upwards and they're not completely full, take >>7568411 as reference.

I should finish up my coat for Takarada tonight, sans the Tiger which Im getting printed later this week.
I'll take some pics when I'm done. 2 weeks left!

>>7568422
great out fit but, those eyes are so dead looking. She looks like an animated manikin.

>>7568419
holy shit, if someone did Suzuki that would be awesome.

>>7568497
She probably does what I do - I try to give an 'intense' look just with my eyes and it just ends up making me look paralyzed.

>>7568422
i'd like this so much if she didn't do whatever she did with the white makeup below her eyes.

>>7568422
Saw this on tumblr and ughh her costume is probably one of the best out there but her makeup is so bad, it makes her look, like, 40 yrs old. Such a shame.

>>7568276

>>7568327
>>7568331
f2mbinders.com sells shapewear for men

>>7568691
Well... at least she admits it's not so good and that it's only her second cosplay. She has a lot to work on, but hopefully, hopefully she can only improve and get better from here.

>>7568440
And here's some early-morning progress. I still need to sew the lining to the sleeves.
I took a back pic, but 1. Tiger not there yet and 2. I made a cut in the back like other coats have without realizing Takarada's didn't have it.
It doesn't look bad, I might just pin it.

Pass judgment.

This girl made her scissor blade functional, i thought it was a pretty good try

Finally. I hope whoever wears this is cute.

Also found this.
Not fond of the wig, but it's nice to see a full-body Ragyo.

>>7569233
I hate the material

>>7569236
>linebacker shoulders
>shapeless body

Is that a nig? Ur not white, pls stop.

>>7565982

>>7569236

>Dat face

>>7568097
thanks anon, I had a really long laugh at work.

I think I feel good enough to figure out that problem I've been trudging through

>>7565807
let's start with that wallpaper: it's hideous.
It looks like carpeting.
also her ugly face. my "unemployed 20-something who still lives with mommy and daddy" senses are tingling

Does anyone else think Yaya Han could do a good Ragyo?
Not that she'd do it, I think.

>>7568282
could you be any more of a fucking autist?
go back to tumblr faggot

>>7569605
Absolutely. Both are 30+ year old Asian chicks coated in makeup with large boobs, run a company, arrogant and hated by the community yet rich as fuck.

I don't keep up with her, but I'm assuming she's been too busy with that trainwreck HoC to work on things?

>>7569605
Honestly I hate Yaya but she's be a flawless Ragyou if she was taller.

>>7569683
I kind of want to see her do it now...

>That feel when your Nui dress is going to be cute but the wig will let you down.

>>7569683
Not an issue, she could hide stripper platforms under the dress

>>7569845
>implying ragyo wouldn't be so diva to not wear stripper pumps

>>7569236
I have literally nothing good to say about this.

....This isn't the anon who was talking about using optic fibers in the wig is it? Because damn.

>>7565586
Other Iori anon here, gonna go ahead and give myself a name now, Those are the original glasses I ordered for Iori from that one guys' etsy until I realized they were way too wide for my face.

One of the tricks with his bangs is that the one on the right side of his face (From your standpoint) is drastically longer than the one on the left, which only really goes down to his chin. I suggest thinning out the front bangs, since they're not that thick to begin with, and start messing with length until you find the right lengths for your face.

>>7568097
Believe in the Shield

>>7568691
Nah man, that cosplay is 10/10. Yes, it's not accurate at all, but it's her second cosplay and it look good overall. Everyone starts small.

>>7570348
I'm rooting for her and can only hope my first cosplay looks that good. I'm gonna start with something simpler, hopefully. Still, I admire her for trying something as difficult as Junkestu

I'mma be doing this right here. I've never made a cosplay before.

So, how would you guys go about making this costume? Seems pretty easy and even something I can do.

>>7570360
Are you extremely muscular? If not do a fully clothed version.

>>7570361
I mean, kinda >>7565712

I plan on cutting down that thin layer of fat/water I have going on after a quick bulk, so I should be able to do it.

>>7570368
The straps and belt should be easy to find at any military surplus store. Be sure to get someone to help you with the arm and leg pieces as well as the wig.

>>7570376
It just looks like some black gauze wrap wrapped up and down.

But that'll probably look stupid.

sooo this is, uh, fun...

>>7570382
I don't think gauze would make uniform straight lines like that. I kinda wanna say use a stretch material? Anyone else have anything to add?

Has anyone dressed a pug like Guts yet?

>>7570292
Ok, thanks! ill get to work on fixing them up and changing the length.

>>7570417
I've wondered for so long what the hell Uzu's thigh highs/sleeve things are made of.
I'm guessing some kind of thin flexible armor. I've considered something ribbed, as KLK tends to do thick ribbed things, but that doesn't make sense horizontally.

>>7568265
Well here's a novel idea: use cosplay as an inspiration to achieve your ideal body type.

>>7570465
This 100%

>>7570409
i love it because its terrifying

>>7570360
http://ohicosplay.tumblr.com/post/80496361849/how-to-make-arm-wraps-without-actually-using-arm-wraps

Something like this may work for the legs

Still a work in progress but I'm cosplaying nudist beach Satsuki in June.
Also, does anyone have some suggestions as to what to make the belt holsters and pouches out of? It's the first cosplay I'm making myself so I'm pretty clueless

>>7570670
unhelpful but damn girl. i want a body like yours!

>>7570670
DAMNN. You're so pretty and I love yoru body!! Do you have a tumblr I could follow? Not in a stalker or creepy way....

>>7570670
>>7570680
>>7570696
If you're going to samefag yourself, don't make it so damn obvious.

You're sucking in your stomach so much that it looks deformed. What the fuck is wrong with your belly button? Your wig has too much of it in the front, Satsuki only has a few strands. Your outfit is also 100% bought and entirely inaccurate, so what the hell are you even asking for here?

This has to be a vendetta post. No one would actually post this piece of shit here.

>>7570670
I think the bangs are just a litttttle too long - that peak could probably be trimmed up a bit. Are you going to change the top?
Anyways, looking good so far!

>>7570680
>>7570696
thank you both! and yes, my tumblr is hanabihimesama

>>7570721
I figured as much. I'm going to attempt at trimming it so it's not so pointy. And yes, when I actually finish the whole cosplay, I'll be wearing a bikini instead of a sports bra

>>7570719
Okie dokie then

1) I have no need to "samefag." I just want feedback on what I have and suggestions on fabrics.

2) Incorrect. I'm an athlete. I work out everyday so if I wasn't at least slim, forget abs, there would be something wrong with me.

3) My bellybutton is weird looking because I had umbilical hernia repair surgery when I was 3. Trust me, It looked way worse before.

4) Thanks for at least giving me wig feedback.

5) You ruined your own argument. If it was store bought, it:
a) wouldn't be "inaccurate"
b) wouldn't be unfinished
I made the harness myself out of old backpack straps and I bought a police utility belt on ebay for the belt base. Want proof? All progress is on any of my social network accounts. Like I already said, STILL A WORK IN PROGRESS.

6) Not vendetta, just me asking for feedback and suggestions.

>>7570779
Wow I'm sure you're new, but that is not the way to respond to criticisms. Not everyone is gonna suck your dick.
Your wig looks a little rough, and it looks like you threw backpack straps on over running clothes. I think that's what they meant by the fact that it looks entirely bought
So there's no need to get your weird ass belly button in a knot, it's cgl. Girls are catty on this site. Sometimes you get constructive criticism, but the catty shit will make you better just the same

>>7570798
I already realize the world isn't full of suck ups and I'm not getting angry over anon from before. I deal with coaches all the time and I was part of the gyaru com for awhile; I can take criticism.

>>7570779
For what it's worth, I've had surgery on my gut and have a warped navel too. High five bro.

>>7570851
Twinning yo. I recently found out it's apparently really common

Would it be stupid/rude for a Ryuko to be all "up-in-the-face" of the photographer?

I can't quite figure out what kind of posing to do for Ryuko asides from sword-to-camera, sword-over-back, slav squat, etc. Although I'm worried if I play too into character it'll just come off as annoying or rude.

>>7569155
Working on a functional one too for and that looks mighty dangerous.
Conops would rape us hard for that.

Could be more creative though. It's literally just separate pieces bolted on together and movable at the joints, with a torsion spring on the decap blade and a very obvious latch on the edge side. And the slit where the decap blade portion comes out of is always open 24/7, so that would look total ass in photos unless you only viewed it from the sides and only the sides.

>>7570984
Well if the photographer knows the character then it shouldn't be a problem. If you're worried then you can talk with the photographer beforehand about what poses you had in mind perhaps. Or act really nice and cheery when they ask you for a photo so they know that when you do those poses it's just you being in character.

>>7570984
Just don't be in character 24/7, especially to complete strangers. Just get in character for photos, or when someone amiably approaches you about your character.

(for example, I cosplay as a MP from AoT and I'm only an ass when they playfully call me an asshole first).

This is something I'd also wish more cosplayers would do. Too many are worried about looking pretty and just whip-up a generic-ass looking kpop idol face.

>>7571071
>>7571078
Thanks.

Yeah, I'm kinda worried about making a stupid face as Ryuko - either stupidly in-character and ugly, and stupidly dead-eyed kpop idol.

>>7571082
Practice on a mirror and remember how it feels on your face. Make it muscle memory, so you know what it looks like in pictures without doubt (doubt/awkwardness is so visible in pictures).

Kudos for wanting to do it though.

Just finished up my Nui pig tails yesterday.
The bob I was styling separately so it's not on the mannequin but yeah.

Entire cosplay is completed also, just don't have pics.

>>7571105

I know jack shit about wigs (armor/props only guy atm) but that looks like a bunch of gel'd up solid matter. Is that heavy/tiresome to have on?

>>7571105
Not sure how to feel about this just yet, but I'll wait to see it with the finished cosplay. And yeah, as >>7571110 mentioned, it looks like it's gonna be pretty heavy on your head. I hope you can handle that.

>>7571110
Haha the base structure was expanding foam and a strip of aluminum chicken wire so the base is really light. The hair is just hair sprayed on so it's not a heavy gel but in all honesty it weighs about 5? or so pounds. It's really not heavy at all I just can't turn my neck super quickly haha

>>7568148
Wear a wig. Do NOT use your real hair. You're going to get sweaty and it will turn to shit. If you can't style wigs, either commission it, or learn. A mohawk should be fairly simple to style.

You need props. You need a sewing machine gun and it needs to look damn good. Lose the glasses. Get contacts.

Get a spray tan if you can. Ask around, find a decent place, you want bronze, not Oompa-Loompa.

I'm a fat guy probably around the same size as you. You CAN be that "funny fat guy that everyone loves" but you need to ROCK that costume and not half-ass it. We're not girls with big tits we can wobble around, so the bar is set much higher for us.

Most of all though, I want you to know that I BELIEVE in you and I KNOW you can do it.

What con are you going to?

>>7570432
Indeed

>>7571117
Keep in mind that it will get heavier feeling throughout the day, it puts a strain on your neck for sure. I suggest wearing it around the house to get used to the weight and see where you need to clip the wig (to keep it from sliding down)

>>7571105
Oh god, please clean your space....

>>7571701
What are you talking about? It's not even that bad.

>>7570670
I'm really sorry, but I don't think you're a good fit for satsuki, and your belly button really throws me off.

>>7571105
How many wefts did you use for this?

Just saw this cross my tumblr dashboard. Not entirely sure if I like the way she did the bangs very much but the rest of the outfit looks nice. And her mask could be a little more transparent but that could just be me being nitpicky.

>>7571701
Most of the mess appears to be on a dropcloth, that isn't too bad. I don't know anyone who is perfectly clean while working on something that size.

>>7570454
i was thinking in terms of those compression things NBA players wear

A while ago there was ryuko cosplayer with a tutorial on how she made her glove. Does anyone have her pics or any other glove tutorials?

>>7571987

>Disproportionate neck
>Pierced bellybutton

Bleh

These people go to my school...

>>7572070
His arm...

>>7572070

>>7569119
Looks good. It seems you have the attitude down too

>>7570454

I would say get normal opaque black thigh highs for the legs but not sure about the arms

>>7572070

I am so sorry

This is the sort of people that makes it hard to come out as a anime fan to other people

>>7572688
I figured you could get 2 pairs of black thigh highs and do that armsock thing that Homefuck cosplayers do for the arms.

>>7572699
It did feel really great standing next to them in the photoshoot. Gave me a huge ego boost and they didn't recognize me.

>>7571785
Sorry you think that way but (to my knowledge at least) there's absolutely no anime characters who have had UHR surgery. So, I'll just keep cosplaying the characters I love. But I can understand, some people think I'll make a great Satsuki, some not

>>7570670
ur black.

I think your face isn't bitchmanly enough.

>>7572774
Correct
>>7572777
That can be arranged

>>7572780
No, I mean face shape. You can't change your face shape. You don't really have a good face or body for her.

>>7572776
What is this gif from? That's cute as hell.

>>7572784
Ohhh true. I don't have her boobs nor hips. I think I have the attitude and expression down though (ignore the messy wig fringe)

>>7572794
I agree with you there, facial structure and expression are a good fit.

>>7572794
Sorry to barge in but your face is absolutely BEAUTIFUL and I'm in love with your chin. Have a nice day, anon.

>>7572812
I might not have Satsuki's god-like body but I will definitely work the attitude!
>>7572845
Thank you!

>>7572794
Woah, I've never seen anyone look as close to her as you do.

>>7569119
Good on you, if I was a guy Takarada would be my number one choice.

What are you going to do about that balla grill?

>>7569605
I'm actually hoping she does it.

>>7570798
>Wow I'm sure you're new, but that is not the way to respond to criticisms. Not everyone is gonna suck your dick.

Oh my fucking God thank you.

>>7572873
Not sure if sarcasm, but if not, thanks!
>>7572887
Well, can't please everyone

>>7572812
>>7572845
>>7572855

You are so obviously fucking samefagging. Stop it already and get out of this thread, you're just shitting it up more.

>>7570779
No amount of backtracking will cover up your shame.

>>7572896
Just agreeing with the sentiment about whiny newfags, I don't really care about your cosplay.

>>7572925
>>7572939
>>7572941
I'm just going to do myself a favor and ignore the troll who refuses to give actual concrit and is most likely the one who's actually samfagging

>>7572958
>samefagging

God forbid a few people don't drool all over you and pat your ass.

>>7572962
I truly don't care if people compliment me or not. I seriously want concrit. As nice as compliments are, they're not going to help me make my outfit. Although, straight up insults-only won't help either. Nobody has to be nice, just throw in a little bit of help every now and then.

adding on to that
I'm not some pro cosplayer. I don't expect anyone to drool over me

Man, this thread went to shit.

>>7572972
>>7572975
Well guess what, you're on /cgl.

It is the nature of the beast.

You're posting yourself, leaving yourself open for anyone to say whatever they want, you can't just be like 'um constructive crit ONLY please!' this isn't your personal blog. So just shut up and deal with it or don't come here.

>>7572972
>>7572975
Why are you still replying. You're making this thread shit instead of ignoring them so they don't reply either.

>>7572975
I would seriously hate being a black girl, sorry.

Good thing I'm a white guy, huh? :^)

Back on track...this Nonon is adorable.

>>7573034
It's unfortunate her face looks so shopped.

>>7573034
>that hat
ugh, why do people just grab a beanie and think it's done... her hat looks nothing like a beanie...

Anyone else have any KLK related tutorials? My friends and I are working on a group cosplay for Dragon con.

>>7573034
Needs more nani sore. Tired of this pretty face bullshit. Shit is just amateur modeling with animu costumes thrown in.

This was posted to the Colossalcon group earlier today...
The inaccuracies kill me. And Junketsu's eyes are big, but... THAT big???

>>7573145

>inaccurate

I AGREE

THEY SHOULD BE BIGGER

>>7573145
There's so much wrong with this granny panty Satsuki. She should've just stuck to her uniform.

>>7573145
She is in pics from Acen, too. I saw her as untransformed Satsuki at Ohayo, must've upgraded

>>7573145
I know she is just trying to pull Satsuki's bitch face but... the more I look at this picture it just doesn't scream menacing. It just sorta looks hammy to me, though I guess that may have been the point.

But man granny panty Satsuki..

>>7570145
Errr nope, that would be me, I've postponed Ragyo just so I can learn from everyone else's mistakes. That and I had some financial trouble and this is really one cosplay I can't skimp on and be happy with myself. Sorry about that, but I'm still lurking gathering info~
The Ragyo on tumblr said she will post a detailed description of what she did after a con this weekend so we'll see. Seeing this is really cementing that I probably should do EL tape instead though

>>7572794
holy shit your face is perfect

>>7570670
Lose some melanin.

>>7572873
wat

>>7572794
Sweet jesus, those lips are gorgeous

>>7572794
>>7570670
You're gorgeous and you're going to look absolutely perfect.

[JUNGLE FEVER INTENSIFIES]

Try nylon fabric for your pouches! It's basically what real pouches would be made out of. Make sure to use nylon thread with it. (You want to use a thread with the same amount of give as the material, so use nylon versus kevlar, cotton thread, etc)

You might need to slip some cardboard or something into them to give them the boxy shape they have in the anime. Normally pouches like that aren't particularly stiff and look a little flat without something in them.

If you need a gun holster, nylon gun holsters are cheap ($10-15) but you could probably make them yourself easily if you're already buying a bunch of fabric for pouches.

>>7573286
nice samefagging

>tfw the last quarter of the thread is 50% some bitch samefagging and complimenting herself, 30% calling her out on samefagging, and 20% seagulls complimenting her for the same of pissing other seagulls off and making them call samefag

>Commission… finished ٩(๑꒦ິȏ꒦ິ๑)۶

>wonky-looking bias
>good portion of the scarf missing
>uneven hems
>is that the zipper showing on the side of the skirt?

what is up with that wig

thoughts?

>>7569343
Pleather > Satin any day of the week

>>7573409
There are other materials than just pleather and satin. FYI.

I'm planning fight club president Mako but I can't find a pattern for her jacket for the life of me! What would you call her jacket anyway? Pirate captains jacket? It's not a trench coat....

Literally just finished this for MCM tomorrow, damn I love procrastinating.
Sorry for sideways image, my phone's just like that.

>>7568663

Agreed. If she went easier on the eyeliner and thinned her wig some (it looks a little big and helmet-like imo), it would look great.

>>7573386
Too feminine. Didn't even try and look like a guy.

your thoughts on this guy? his wig is bothering me, could've gone with a lace front and it seems styled a bit too flat, but i still feel like it's one of the best i've seen?

>>7573520
I'm not even finished for mcm tomorrow....boot covers, hat, and baton for Nonon, and work until 9....

>>7573723
You can do it! Anything notable to look out for so I can congratulate you tomorrow when you finish it LIKE A BOSS!

>>7573520
Looks fine to me.
I'm so sick of seeing shirtless Aikuros.

>>7569119
looking good! I need to find a gold grill and some printed $$$

>>7573715
I think his wig is the most accurate so far and he's got a nice body, plus the LED nipple prosthetics look really good. Much more than you can say for 99% of Aikuros, so I'm cool w/him.

Going to work on my Nonon hat today. Is it trying too hard to use actual feathers for the circled bits of pic related? I'm the Nonon that sculpted the skull a few months ago, by the way, so I'm going for a realistic approach but I'm not sure how feathers on my boots would look.

>>7573715
The wig is too blue for my liking, but he is the best Aikuro thus far.
I still have yet to see one that has proper contouring, which I think is the key.

>>7573743
I like the fuzzy scarf. How are you adding the black parts?

>>7573475
Design is based on "bancho," Japanese stereotypical delinquent. The jacket comes from the 1970s-era male school uniforms. Some combo of those keywords might help you?

>>7573769
I could see actual feathers on the hat, especially as you (probably?) already will be using feathers for the plume (on top), but I'm not so sure about feathered boots. Personally I think the boot-feathers should be stylized the way her cuffs are, but that might just be me.

>>7573384
I think you're being a bit nitpicky. This isn't that bad, really, though they should've invisibly hemmed the sleeves for it to look better.

>>7573385
the fuck is her face

>>7573734
Me too, especially the fat ones.
Someone I was going with wanted me to do the full NB getup but I'm too out of shape to make it look good, and I'm not, well, hot enough.

>>7573933
Not bad; also, her wig fibers look amazingly soft and beautiful.

>>7573933
That actually looks pretty okay

>>7573933
Not fond of the fluorescent pink, but it's pretty good for a FIRST! !

>>7573933
Way better than I expected to see as my first (are there others?). I'm almost disappointed this isn't a train wreck.

>>7573933
shit man, beat me to it. Not gonna lie, I'm jelly as fuck right now

>>7573933
I wonder what she did about her ass, like is that clear strap thing a thong and her ass is just hanging out in public or is it like regular panties?

>>7573780
Thanks Anon!

>>7573933
She looks good, although now that I see how it looks on real life bare skin, I think I'm going to prefer nude bodysuit versions.

>>7573732
I posted in the progress thread here >>7562576... The dress will be fine and the rest will look like total shit.

>>7573769
I think they're supposed to be stylised, I would make them more like angel wings if you're going to use real feathers though.

>>7573933
I want to know how she's holding those shoulder things up...

This popped up on my fb feed

>>7573933
>>7574083
oh god I absolutely need to see an ass shot

>>7574083
Has actually reading threads become a thing of the past?

>>7574100
I forgot to hit auto update and had the thread open a while. Sue me.

I'm more confused that it let me post the same image.

>>7565713

Annnd it looks awful

>>7572678
>>7572876
Thanks! I already made the grill, actually. Posted this photo back before my facial hair grew back. I think I should repaint it though, the paint has been getting a little gouge just from me moving it around.
Cant tell unless you're REAL close though.

>>7573743
Your fur scarf looks great! I like that color, I went with a more brown/gold color since I couldn't find a decent yellow fur in my local place.
I'm waiting for the tiger to cool, just ironed it on. I'll take a pic with the fur eventually.

>>7573933
The upper portion could have been drafted more cleanly (what's up with that seam on the sleeve?) but overall it's pretty good.

>>7574209
That Gama is pretty good!

>>7574209
Landwhales run to Mako just like they did Mami.

How would one even go about making a grill for Takarada?

>>7574229
>landwhales

>>7574236
I'm
>>7574149

And I used this tutorial
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b_XEdTFA3jU
Assuming you have thermoplastic readily available like I do, it worked out pretty well. Just tedious.
I obviously didn't do my whole mouth.

>>7574246
It's like a stumbling hobble.

And yes, that Gama is good, but the blonde looks odd.

>>7573869
It's a commission though, if I paid someone to make a costume for me I would want it to look good especially on small things that are easy to do.

>>7573349
Stop being buttmad that someone else is pretty and others agree, it isn't going to make you less hideous.

>>7574592
what the hell is this supposed to be... her wig is what's killing me here tbh

>>7573145
I know this chick, she lives in Akron, OH. In short, she wanted to wanted to wear a con appropriate version of this costume so she tried to be more tasteful than accurate. Judge as you will, she tried her best.

Seriously though, that bitch face is super hammy.

>>7574615
Someone did some Okami-inspired Kill la Kill designs and someone decided to cosplay the Ryuko one

>>7573145
Why has no one pointed out the immense lack of detail? I appreciate her trying to be modest but where are the wrist cuffs, the gloves, the arm bands, the armor under the chest, the blue tips on her shoes, the pleats around her boots, the details on the sword, etc.

Please tell me this is not complete?

found this on tumblr

>>7574713
Baton is too long
Skirt is short and just looks awkward
Boots are wrong
The (stand-in) feathers on the hat look terrible
The bones are glittery but nothing else is

Getting tired of Nonons using that Luka-pink wig. It's too dull.

>>7574713
This character is so fucking cute and I want to cosplay it crazy bad but I don't really care enough to sit down and watch Kill La Kill. So I'm going to watch from afar forever.

>>7574757
Even by animu-logic standards it's insanely stupid and I fucking love it. Watch the first couple episodes if nothing else.

Or watch the last episode and nothing else for funsies

>>7573995
It probably links to a similar shaped piece in the back.

They make C-panties which was what Nonon had in this outfit but youuuuuu can't really wear those at a con.

>>7574737
You're pretty nitpicky, anon. Her cosplay could be better but I think she looks cute.

>>7574767
>badge hanging from the thong
Amazing

>>7574592
The only thing I like here is the blade. That makeup and wig are atrocious.

nigger

>>7570417
use this. You can get it any horse store or the vet or order online. It's like 2 bucks a roll and sticks to itself

>>7574976
..............why though

>>7574976
crossovers are going to be the death of me and i dread when someone gets around to transformed outfits

>>7574253
As someone here who helped another Takarada cosplayer make their grill using the same tutorial, totally seconding using it. It was really simple once we actually got down to it, just a little tedious like he said.

>That morment when you realise you've been wearing your Nui hairbow on the wrong side all day.

>>7574767

Saw this on fb, pretty good but what's wrong with Ryuko's shoes

>>7575607
They're falling apart and/or she can't walk in heels, I'm guessing.
Props to the Mako for having something other than flip-flops

>>7575607
First Ryuuko I see with her boobs armor and not fabric!

This popped up on my dash from animazement and needless to say I'm a little nauseous because of her teeth. And her everything.

>>7574767
perfect

>>7575469
It's okay Anon, I did that with Yoko's skull pin when I first wore her.

>>7574083
>>7574767
>>7575571
where the fuck is a picture of her from behind????

Any tips for Nonon make up?

>>7576230
They are perfection. Pack it up ladies, this is how it's done!

the satsuki makes me laugh so hard, even though her costumes probably the best out of all of them

>>7574767
>>7575571
>>7573933
Wow. I love how up in arms cgl was about this nonon-version and now that it was done fairly well, all the zealouts have gone quiet. Never change cgl.

Here's some I took at Anime North 2014 the other day:

No it's shit. Especially the black guy.

>>7578241
is that the berserk ryuko who was posting before?

it looks like a fucking disappointment , fuck i am so sad.

>>7565982
>why are guys so disgusting looking.

Because you're a bitch who probably weighs 300 pounds
