/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

Suuuurrrre. My Hot Pants cosplay, I'm still waiting on photos back, but I'm pretty happy with how this turned out.

>>7715980
Your hat is most likely on point but cannot unsee that penis on your head

>>7715983
ahahahahaha yeah I feel that, I honestly was wondering if anyone was going to say that.

Lady Punisher (Lynn Michaels) my Thor cosplay is at Lydia of Rohan on facebook

>>7715980
You looked great. Are you wearing that to Ota by any chance?
My friend will be doing Johnny again, and another friend is finishing his Gyro.

cgl has been pretty creative lately with the negative comments. so why not.

>>7715980
This turned out so great, your skill really shows - there was so much potential for that fabric to look horrible.

>>7716496
Nice scissor blade

>>7716496
I - I think you're really pretty, anon! Construction is super good too.
I mean, I'm 100% straight but oh man, I wish I was as pretty as you.

>>7716496
I don't watch klk but after seeing a fuck ton of these cosplays I actually really like yours. It doesn't look ill fitting, your prop is great and you actually appear to eat so bonus points there

Not finished with it yet. Going to cut off the current mask and add another one

>>7716496
I think you should lose the lipstick, it makes you look old, but otherwise you look great and I love the material you used.

>>7716548
Not OP here

Well that has to be one of the stupider things I've heard lately

>>7716530
That censor just lel

>>7716496
perfect boot covers as always, and the scissor and upper half of the cosplay look spot on too. For some reason the 'skirt' seems a little lifeless to me, like it should have a little more flare. Makeup seems a little too mature for Ryoko but it might just be the facial expression.

>>7716548
I actually agree. The lipstick wasnt intentional :< I had just finished shooting Catwoman so I had on a lot of dark red lipstick and i'd stained my lips, I couldnt get it all off since I shot this one right after.

>>7716496
>50s diner Ryuko

I had some damn good times in my Cactus Jack cosplay this weekend at SDCC. Lotsa love for the Foley, especially in the local bars. Girls love the missing front teeth look for some weird reason. I think some girl named Kate from XboxTv gave me a headlock or something for a video.

Even got posted on the WWE-Universe Twitter with Big E. He's a really chill dude.

I haven't done a shoot with Marian so I don't have any decent ones. This is the best I have that shows the costume (but far from my favourite or most in character).
>>7715980
I love your HP, I feel you should have maybe made the boob cape a bit longer to cover your boobs a bit more. Thought that might have made it a bit out of proportion looking so idk. Any way, it looks good.
>>7716496
Man the costume and blade are so clean and nice. The pleather isn't too shiny and everything fits so well. Those boot covers.

Waiting for actual photo shoot photos back but wore this at SDCC for a while. Not anywhere close to done, my gun and shoulder armor hadn't dried in time before I left. Oh well. Was still fun.

I've recently acquired some oily looking feather pauldrons to put on top of this coat.

>>7716496
Lose the lipstick, work on your eye make up, and work on your Posture and face to emulate the look more perfectly, otherwise, it's super fucking tits.

I'm still fairly new to cosplaying and not very good but I really liked how my Mamimi cosplay turned out.

>>7716496
This is awesome! I love your blade.
>>7716827
This is so clean and cute, good job anon!

>>7716651
This is amazing and you are amazing for doing this. You planning to do his other personas?

>>7717406
Either I will, or my two buddies will do Dude Love and Mankind so we can all go together. Might get a wrestler group going at Comikaze.

>>7716827
That is an adorbs smile.

>>7716468
Cute concept, but I'm not digging the black tights.

Ditch em, and maybe get wrestling tights with short bottoms. It'll show off your legs, but still cover pretty well. Pic related.

The undies exposed look sorta looks weird.

>>7717381
You need an iron, a nicer wig and a smaller sailor collar
Also probably makeup

My lack of sewing skills limits my options hard.

>>7717607
What did I miss ironing?
The wig itself isn't bad, and I was wearing make-up. I really should have retouched myself on site of the photoshoot though, I was anxious as this was my first one! I'll definitely do so next time! Thanks for the concrit!

>>7717623
I don't know, I'd say your shit chest genetics limit you a little more.

>>7717623
>>7717696
can't argue with this, pectus to stronk

>>7717623
>that point in which you lifted too much.

>>7716478
I am! Is it the same friend from CTcon? If he's bringing his Joseph I'd love to get pictures with him with my Suzi Q!

>>7716496
Haha thank you. This fabric was pretty fucking ridiculous but it worked out really well for this costume. I have no idea if it could work for anything else.

>>7716827
Thank you! I can see that, if I made it a bit longer it fit more with her you know, pretending to be a guy.

Con season is over for me so the most recent thing I have is some Red River from Fanime.
>>7715980
I love how closely the pink fabric and wig match. HP was my favorite character from SBR and you pulled her off flawlessly!
>>7716496
I love the way everything turned out with your fabric choices and your wig is on point. Amazing!
>>7716827
Your head piece is super cute! I'm also loving the shoes.
>>7717381
I love the setting you guys were able to find but I'd definitely starch and iron your skirt next time for a better look!

My Hawkgirl cosplay.
2000 fucking feathers later.

>>7717623
What are steroids for 500.

Sure, why not. I still need to make the boots and get a jericho (right now I'm using an eagle since it was cheap and a jericho is a "baby eagle"). Give me all the hard dirty criticism you can. I've heard that I need to lose the lapels (probably will next con), get the boots instead of shoes, and raise the light blue lapel. Also looking into getting tighter pants, but it's hard to get 32x36 fitted slacks.

>>7718177

And cue trigger discipline whiners

>>7718244
he's posing, why would they whine about it?

>>7718244
Edited out the safety band. People can whine if they want, but it was a private shoot and a fake plastic gun. No danger at all.

>>7718259
People LOVE to whine about trigger safety. Fuck it, if it's fake, do whatever you want in pictures. Hell, if it's real do what you want in photoshoots, just don't bring it to cons.

>>7716502
>>7716529
>>7716827
>>7717381

Of course her blade looks perfect, she commissioned it. As if she could make that.

>>7718089
It is, and I'm pretty sure he's bringing both.
We're both working on Doppio and Diavolo right now too.

>>7718397
Fantastic. Do you guys have a twitter or whatever? Some way of keeping contact so we can meet up? I'd hate to miss whenever you guys wear them!

My Stocking cosplay with a friend as Panty. I was kind of sick that day though, so I'm hoping to wear it to Otakon looking a bit nicer

>>7717623
They way your and is covering the top of /a/ makes it look like it says /d/.

Unless that is what it says anyway.

>>7718496
I do Tumblr and Facebook. Hold on, actually. I think I can find you through other people.

>>7717679
The skirt and collar look pretty wrinkled. You should also think of wearing nylons or something, even if the character doesn't, as it will really help smooth out your legs.

>>7719232
Yeah, this
Its not bad at all esp for first time cosplay. Also I love flcl. Just thought I'd offer some tips.

>>7718144
Is that you Choco Coco

keep this going

>>7720930
If you want it to continue, then you should contribute

>>7719232
>>7719243
Thanks for the help! I'll definitely wear nylons next time I do a character that shows leg like this, as well as pay more attention/give more time to my ironing
.>>7718131
Thank you!! I thought the location was perfect, I'm glad someone liked it! I love the detail on your collar/necklace and earrings.
>>7718177
I like this! I dig your hair, it looks nice for this.
>>7718528
I love the blue color as well as your construction and makeup!

>>7718244
>>7718268

Here's the thing about the trigger discipline shit: It is entirely dependent on intent. if you are posing with your gun drawn, but not aiming at anyone or anything, in that RE, gun held upwards by your shoulder pose, then you should not have your finger on the trigger. And since they are cosplaying as characters who presumably know what they are doing, then they should pose that way.

This spike though clearly is aiming his gun with the intent to fire it. His eyes are lines up with his arm and he is either threatening to shoot or will shoot. In either case, his finger on the trigger makes sense in this context.

>>7718157

Steroids? Seriously? That nigga looks natty as fuck, even flabby in some areas

I'll be eventually fixing up some details of my Nonon that I didn't like but here's a hall shot.

>>7716827
Ahh, your Marian is so cute. Not enough Ixion Saga cosplay.

>>7719418
No, I'm Shelbie Savage.
Who is Choco Choco? I've only been on this board for about 2 years.

>>7717927
T-thanks, y-you too
>>7718157
>>7718157
Yup, no cheating for me

>>7721282
A qt 3.14 tripfag, you guys have very similar faces.

Alright, I guess I'll do this. I have a few things to fix up on Hilda, but I'm pretty pleased with how Ravio came out. Too bad I'll probably never wear this again.

>>7718528
You look lovely as Stocking! The construction on your cosplay looks really solid.

>>7718177
Pretty good, maybe a bit of the green tinge to your hair would help? That's something that can easily look like crap if done wrong though.

>>7716468
According to some Mexican on /int/ only 16% of Americans are blonde

I wonder if that's true

>>7721067
Why did you remove your trip?

>>7717381
Thank you. Mamimi is my waifu.

>>7716530


Looks decent. It's actually kind of funny how rare a good hommede spiderman suit is.

>>7716827

Cuute.
Don't like the shoese. But it's cute.

>>7718177

I think it's mostly good. Shoes are a little off. And hair, but that is one of the hardest parts that most seem to fuck up tremendoulsy.
Andh imagine trying to get 30x36 pants. Shit's impossible.

>>7718528

Fuck yes. Love stocking. Bangs look a little unnatural though. I'm not sure, but I think hair dresser types do have techniques, and scissors for that that might do the trick.

>>7724758
Ah, I never did try to cut the wig (and yeah the bangs were annoying me..), thanks!
>>7724502
Ah thanks so much ^^ I really do hope you wear that Hilda cosplay again though, it looks beautiful
>>7720975
Thanks so much ^^

>>7716496
The boots are fuckig beautiful

My Shannon cosplay from AX this year! I'm actually really proud of it, besides the wig. I love Umineko so much so I was really excited to wear her, even though Day 3 was kind of a mess for me.
>>7715980
Niiiice.
>>7716496
I've been following your progress for a while and I have to say that I'm blown away by how nice the final product is.
>>7716827
Your expression is so cute.
>>7717381
You fit Mamimi very well!
>>7718528
Really loving your construction.
>>7721067
Cute pose!

>>7724502
I saw you on the couple cosplay thread!! You look super cute, anon!

>>7724989
you look so cute! <3

This is my Dio Brando from Fanime 2014, I was super happy with how it came out

>>7725689
I love the fabric you used for the black.

>>7725692
It was much much easier then the gold i used my first time that was a pain in the ass i could hardly move

Mary Read at this last Anime Expo, hopefully my friend will finish Anne before Anime California.

>>7725717
Those look pretty awesome. I've been wanting to do this cosplay forever but I live in a small city so my fabric options have been limited. Where did you find most of your materials?

>>7718177
That's pretty good, it's really nice to see a Spike with effort put into accuracy.
>>7725689
Well hot damn. Seconding the fabric comment, it's just the right mix of hideously tacky and sexy.
>>7725717
I have no idea what these are from but they look great.
>>7717381
Thank you!
>>7718131
>>7724758
These shoe opinions haha. They're a bit inaccurate on the bit around the ankle but that's what I get for rushing. I'll fix them up before I get non-con shots.
Thank you both.
>>7721067
Not enough at all. Your Nonon looks adorable.

>>7725689
The fabric you used is amazing. I love how it looks like you're basically walking a runway.

I did Aguri Kusugami from Garo Yami wo Terasu Mono for Sakuracon and Fanime, shit was pretty fun but god the costume is hot as hell. Garo is not a summer-friendly show to cosplay from, idk how they manage to film it between May and October.

>>7725717
Are you a boy or a girl?

>>7726205
>I have no idea what these are from
AC4 black flag

>>7726265
It's a girl cosplaying a character that's supposed to be a woman disguised as a man.

My first cosplay, went with a genderbent of favorite LoL champ at the time... Arcade Sona. Was dub'd the title of "Brona" at A-kon 25

>>7724502
This is adorable! I love the shade of lipstick you chose, it's a nice touch.
>>7724601
Np anon, Mamimi is my spirit animal. Or spirit anime, or something.
>>7724989
Thank you!! You look super cute, oh my goodness! I want to pinch your precious cheeks so badly.
>>7725689
This is awesome. I love the wristcuffs.
>>7725717
Woah, I love all the details! Amazing job!
>>7726221
I dig the belt and the closures on the jacket, as well as the detail on the cuffs!
>>7726276
Nice platform!!

I took at shot at Homucifer, one of my dream cosplays, over the summer. Wings didn't get done, gloves photographed weirdly, wig didn't come in time, and I left my anklets at home, but I'm super proud of how the dress itself turned out.

>>7726276
Your image is pretty low res but from what I can tell, your prop is really well made. I see a lot of girls cosplaying Sona and their prop always looks like shit with poor construction and a terrible paint job.

>>7726299
I'm such a stickler for good Homura cosplays but I have to admit you're one. Good construction (even without the wings), good pose, everything. Your face is even perfect too. I approve.

>>7726299
I hated that movie, but I like what you've got there so far.

>>7726276
That's godlike!

>>7726338
>>7726340

Thanks guys, it means a lot.

>>7726299
>>7718131
>>7716827
>>7716468
PLEASE BE IN LONDON

>>7726299
your dress gives the illusion you have a super tiny waist! the dress is amazing, and you look super cute, anon.

>>7726293
>>7726346
Thanks to both of you!

>>7726334
Higher res for ya! And thank you!

>>7726334
Also was my first prop to be made! Didnt want it to look like all the other Sona keyboards just made out of cardboard and painted, looked bad to me. So i went pretty hard on it and experimented a ton with it.

Too much dick sucking in his thread, time to cut the fake bullshit

>>7716468
Good job painting a skull on a leotard
>>7716496
Good choice, the wig covers that giant deformed nose of yours.
>>7717168
Is your bra supposed to be showing?
>>7717333
I feel like I've seen you working at my local hot topic. You're the creepy 40 year old that hits on all the underage goff girls
>>7717623
Lol those pecs I'm so sorry. Also the makeup is shit
>>7718528
Are supposed to be fake stabbing her? Because there are about a million better ways to have done that shot and you chose the worst. But hey, you're slightly more attractive than her.
>>7726276
Lazy hipster scum

>>7724787
>>7725110
>>7726293
Thank you anons! I say I'll never wear it again because I'm planning to move far, far away and most likely won't be bringing cosplays. But I'd love to have another opportunity to wear it with Ravio.

>>7726475
This looks great, and your cosplay as a whole is hilarious.

>>7726299
You're really beautiful anon, the dress looks amazing on you!

>>7726511
Can't wait to see what you look like!!!

This thread needs more lolita
I wish I had a better spot to take pictures, my room is super lame

>>7726591
Vury nice

>>7726201
I got all my fabric at Joann's, after reaching for the right textures I then bought a crap ton of dye. Everything was lightly weathered and distressed with multiple dye baths.

>>7726265
I'm a lady anon, but I'm kinda androgynous. I'm 5'9" and very blonde, with long features so makeup is an incredible thing for me since I'm monochromatic. Sculpted my nose, jaw, and cheekbones for Mary.

I'm actually kind of happy that I confused people, hopefully my makeup will get better the more I wear her

>>7726511
this isnt a critique thread lmao this is a self post and get asspats thread
geddafukout

>>7717381
You need a cuter friend, that guy looks like a loser.

>>7717381
This is awful. Did you cut the bangs on that wig? It looks so pathetic. You look nothing like mamimi and even with the location I would never have assumed that was the cosplay you were doing.

>>7726591
Your cardi classes with that curtain. Is it really not possible to photograph with another side of the room?

>>7726609
Thanks!

>>7728138
It's really not, hahaha. After I took these pictures I decided I'm going to get some new curtains, so you and I are on the same page lol

>>7726299
Holy shit the photo makes it look like your waist is fucking tiny

Me on the right, and my sister on the left. Only my second (and third, if you count my sister's too) cosplay I've made, but I'm pleased with it. Learning various dyeing methods was fun.

>>7726299
This is gorgeous! You have a perfect face for Homura.
>>7726591
This is adorable! The colors you chose look super nice on you.

>>7728133
He's my qt bf and I love him.
>>7728136
I did cut the bangs! Sorry to disappoint, I'll try to do better next time.
>>7728253
This is cute! Did you make your boots? They look awesome!

>>7726299
HOMU IS THAT YOU

>>7728383
The boots were the only part I didn't make. I found them on ebay for 25 bucks and the allure of saving money was just too great to resist

>>7728253
I dig it, good job.

>>7726410
>>7726425
>>7726563
>>7728210
>>7728383
>>7728385

Oh my gosh, thanks so much everyone! I love the fact the dress slims my waist at first glance, haha, never thought that cut outs could be flattering on me. Glad I could do Homu justice.

Wore this today~ does anyone have any suggestions for accesories/ect? thanks!

>>7728865
very cute! I'm not feeling the necklace (I think a daintier one would be better) , but other than that I think it's great

>>7718528
More/Facebook? Your super hot.

>>7728383
>This is adorable! The colors you chose look super nice on you.
Thank you so much! I'd be willing to bet your bangs looked fine before you put the beanie on, I used to have a blunt cut and even though my bangs were cut nicely I could never wear tights hats without having my bangs sticking out like that. Maybetry sitting it just a little further back on your head next time? I wouldn't worry so much about the catty anon if I were you, I could tell it was FLCL cosplay just from the thumbnail.

>>7728865
This is so cute! I'm with the other anon as far as the necklace goes, maybe a cute cameo on a slightly shorter chain? I really love what you did with your wig too, and the color is perfect with that print because it's not such a yellow blonde.

>>7718292
Vendetta detected

>>7718528
Derp and wrong color what a pair

>>7721067
I've seen so many pictures of you and the look on your face always turns me off. Your costume is pretty good but ugh posing please work on it

>>7728865
Very cute! However it looks like your blouse is off white and your socks are white. I'd suggest getting a pure white blouse, if that's the case, maybe with a bit larger of a peter pan collar.

If it's just my monitor and the colors are off please disregard! so cute

>>7715718

Genuinely surprised how attractive CGL is.

>>7729158
And yet theres always a group of people giving super harsh criticism.

>>7729169

Jelly fatties?

>>7729158
>Genuinely surprised how attractive CGL is.
Because only the most decent looking people post in these threads.

>>7729174
That or thirsty ass bitches who think they're god's gift to cosplay.

>>7728865
You're adorable! But maybe practice posing a little better, your footing looks a bit awkward

First time cosplaying. The batman caught me by surprise and wanted pictures with me, hence the weird face I'm making. I have a lot of work I need to do before I'm a decent cosplayer.

>>7726475
If I might ask, what materials did you use for the board? I'm making one soon and yours is the best I've seen haha.

>>7729176
I'm actually particularly unimpressed by the craftsmanship...

>>7730050
If we all posted our best costumes in every thread it'd get boring. In order to keep the thread fresh I and I assume everyone else, posts their most recent rather than their most impressive.

I finally got pictures of Lisa Lisa back from a while ago! I admit the craftsmanship is pretty shoddy but it turned out surprisingly well. I'm so happy I was able to get a small part 2 group together

>>7730108
But even a lot of the simpler costumes look shoddy.

>>7730168
I'm always happy to see good JoJo cosplay done well and I dig your Lisa Lisa.

>>7729982
I used insulation foam sheets (the ones from home depot) for the bulk of everything and glued it all together with liquid nail. Sanded it all down with an orbital and made the raised pieces out of insulation foam as well. Hard coated it with some smooth on shell-shock and sanded it smooth using 240 pads with my orbital and then 320 by hand. Hardest part of the board was the sanding between the buttons.

>>7728886
That's a great idea! maybe something gold with a pale pink accent?
>>7729097
omg thanks! that sounds lovely as well. I really appreciate your input! p.s. you are really really cute
>>7729149
Thank you! there is a tiny color difference between them, but the socks are beige/offwhite and the blouse is beige. I can always try another blouse though~!
>>7729339
oops! sorry, my posing is usually a lot worse than this actually ha. i will try to fix it though!

>>7730168

>Joseph didn't bind

>Caesar would look better crushed under a rock

>Lisa Lisa overall looks like garbage

Just stick to cosplaying kill la kill or whatever tumblr is on about.

My cutie sister all dressed up in lolita

>>7736220
She needs to use a different bra with that blouse.

>>7736220
I'm so jealous of her figure!

>>7736220
Someone feed her before she fades away to nothing

>>7736220
You probably shouldn't post to both /cgl/ and Closet of Frills so closely together. Especially since you're both pretty standard ita fare.

>>7736220
do you starve her?!

>>7736389
Problem?

>>7736220
You sister is adorable, anon. Ignore the jelly landwhales.

>>7736389
>being an asshole by exposing people's names
>standard ita
I'm not even commenting further on the first issue, because what's the point. But I really do think both look cute. Why would say she's ita?

>>7736220
is she the little or older?

>>7725689
10/10 would pose with

>>7724502
Your pauldrons look like something Ashley would have shit out.

>>7725689


Hell yeah, I love this. Especially the makeup, and hair.

>>7726221

Nice straps, and belts. Details.

>>7726299

Adding onto the praise of everyone else, that dress thing is incredibly flattering with those side cutout things.
And I love your jaw line. a lot.

>>7728253
Sibling cosplay; cuuute.

>>7736220

She looks like she could be twelve.
Cute though.
