/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

Do you think I could pass for a girl with the right makeup and hair?

>>8002307
A manly girl

>>8002307

i think you could.

>>8002307

You could cosplay as Chloe Moretz.

jfc haven't posted here in /years/ college was a bitch

>>8002440

AFTER

>>8002442
You make a prettier girl than a I.. And I'm a girl fuck you very much

>>8002442
I wanna hug you ,you're so damn cute

Tried taking my measurements today.

B: ~90cm
H: ~77cm
W: ~90cm

Does that sound workable? Not sure if I'm doing this right.

>>8002440
You're hotter as a dude.
10/10 would bang and make breakfast.

>>8003564
>hips smaller than waist

I think you did something wrong

>>8003657
Nah, I guarantee you that I'm a better cook. Let me do the cooking.

>>8003661
whoops, swap those

>>8002442

Damn, white guys and Asian guys always do crossplay the best

I'm a white/Mexican mutt, which isn't the best sperm lottery for a crossdresser

(I'm the guy who posted the first response)

>>8003798
Honestly it shouldn't matter. Makeup can go a long way. I'm absolute shit with makeup, but my facial structure makes up (heh) for that.

Plus, you shouldn't be looking for verification on here if you could pass or not. People don't care if you do or not.
Just go out, do it, and have fun.

(I gave myself a name for convenience's sake)

Thanks for the encouragement. Idk, passing really matters to me, since....I'm actually planning on an actual gender change once I move out. *blush* I'm just not sure my bone structure 'n' shit will work with it. Crossplaying is kind of my practice for the real deal.

But anyway, thanks for the encouragement, and you really do look adorable :D

>>8002307
Ehh, maybe if you lose a bit of weight and tame those eyebrows. Makeup and hair should take care of the rest.

>>8002440

10/10 marry me

>>8002440
You kind of look like steve from Blue's Clues

>>8003818
Tbh, I think your facial structure looks fine. You have a round looking face and a cute mouth.

>>8003798
>dat jaw and nose
You ain't gonna make it brah

Reminder that crossplay is

>33% makeup/wig/circle lenses
>33% photoshop
>33% being Asian

>>8002307
I do think so. You have great lips. Trim your eyebrows a bit and I'm sure this could really work.

/fit/ Here

How do I into crossdressing?

>>8007496
Typical, lol

>>8002143
Are we talking cross-dressing, or just genderbending? Because I want to do a swole genderbent sailor mars so bad

I'll bite. I know I have a masculine jawline, so I don't usually do crossplay to fool people into thinking I'm a girl. I do it, because I don't particularly care for genderbends and I like the novelty of crossplaying.

>>8007644
Also for comparison, me as a dude.

>>8006099
Hold on lemme just look at this checklist...

... yep, I've got exactly none of that. Fuck.

>>8007644
would suck dick
>>8007646
would not suck dick

>>8007722
Huh?

>>8007498
typical how?

>>8007644
mirin

>>8008302
Typical that /fit/ wishes to be the little girl

>>8007644
I might as well post another. I'm actually really proud of my Junko.

>>8007644
>>8007646
>>8008441

>>8008441
>>8007644
Sort of cute? Might pass at glance

But something is just.... so manly

>>8009053
It's probably his cheek bones, tbh.

>>8008441
>>8007644


If you haven't before, try putting eyeliner all the way around your eye.

Also close your mouth, it looks a little goofy.

I want to genderbend it

I think I can make it happen

>>8009546
would love to see.

>>8008307
I didn't know this was typical. Does this happen often? first time on /cgl/. So this is common?

>>8009053
this is a might pass? I feel like i could put in a ton of effort and not nearly look that good

>>8009557
For you, /cgl/, for you.

If I can drop to 10% BF by anime matsuri lol

>>8009565
I'm new on /cgl/ too. /fit/ being into traps is a meme, but not really because they truly are

>>8009534
The reason that the eyeliner wasn't all the way around was because I was going for more like what the character's actual makeup looks.

And yeah, I know it does, I've got other pictures where I didn't do that. Those were just the two I grabbed to upload.

>>8009565
Thank you! I've only had a few people say that they actually thought I was a girl, but in person, I'm about 6'2". so it throws it off.

>>8009565
>I didn't know this was typical. Does this happen often? first time on /cgl/. So this is common?
No, most of /cgl/ just hates /fit/. Truth be told, it's because most of the people here are fat/chubby or just generally really out of shape, while there's a very vocal minority that is /fit/.
Causes some aggression.

>>8010336
There's so many things you could hate /fit/ for. Wanting to be the little girl is not one of them.

Also, your new//fit/ is really showing

>>8010359
I didn't mean that wanting to be the little girl has anything to do with it, just general /fit/ hate which that "lol typical" comment falls under.

>new//fit/
the fuck

Selfposting a pic from this year's halloween party.

>>8010311
>I'm about 6'2"
hey I'm 6'1" and fit/athletic so youre better off than me! I wish you could be my mentor or something.

>>8010336
ah I see. well yeah some of /fit/ is pretty anti-fat/chubby. I'm pretty indifferent though. I find women of many sizes attractive, and as long as your health doesn't majorly suffer, be any size you want. Whatever makes someone happy.

>>8010623
I've done two crossplays where I've actually worn a couple inch high heels, so I was about 6'5" at least.

People are usually really excited to see that kind of stuff, so you can really just go for it. People love crossplaying.

>>8007644
I'd let you suck my penor

>>8002143
Would fuk
>>8002442
Wouldn't fuck, but you're a pretty good crossplayer
>>8010488
wuld fuk like the fist of the north fuk

>>8010785
>People are usually really excited to see that kind of stuff, so you can really just go for it. People love crossplaying.
totally new to this all. Like I said first time on /cgl/ and I'm not familiar with the cosplaying or convention scene at all.

So people get excited to see it? How so? I literally have no idea how popular or unpopular crossplaying is or how people generally view it.

I would "go for it" but I literally know nothing. Haven't got the first clue about makeup or wigs or clothing. I don't know how to work around my guy face or my wide shoulders and all that.

>>8010488
Cute as fuck. Great cosplay with the added bonus of a look that could steal a thousand hearts.

>>8002143
I'm gonna crossplay as Makise Kurisu quite soon, for Kurisumasu.
I think I can put the outfit together quite easily, since her clothes are nothing out of the ordinary, but does anyone have an idea on how I could pull off the shoes? Or should I just order the actual cosplay ones online?

>>8010363
>lol, typical

It wasn't hate, just lolz

>>8010488
I automatically assume that any Touhou cosplayer I ecounter is a guy until proven otherwise.

>>8011287
Same here. There's this guy who goes to AX/Sakuracon as Reimu and I've always mistaken him for a girl for 4 years straight now.

Funnier is the fact that he runs TouhouCon now.

Has anyone ever done Lady Ciel?

>>8010488
>>8011287
>>8011365
Haha yeah touhou has alot of crossplayers
I have this dude on fb I met at a local con as far as I can tell he likes touhou alot

>>8010908
I don't really have masculine features other than my facial structure, which can be softened with makeup and contouring. You could probably do a character that wears a costume that covers a lot of their body, since that would cover up your broad shoulders and stuff with the proper fitting.

I had help from my girlfriend, in terms of being able to do this, so I'm not really the best source of help for a lot of this stuff. I just try to do my best to act the part.

>>8010908
Crossplay, in terms of guys being girls, isn't very popular in the amount of people that do it, but the way that people view at conventions.

The reverse, where girls do guys, isn't very popular unless it's really good, because it's super prevalent.

In general, there's always gonna be a few people who view crossplay as being gay and shit, but the majority of people think it's cool.

>tfw 6', 215

I will never be girly

>>8007644
YOOOO I met you at HoliMat this year! I loved your Junko. It was fierce.

>>8013232
Ayyyeeee. Thank you! <3

I stumbled across this outfit on J-List this morning and I've been toying with the idea of buying it all day. There are some things I'm wondering about it, though.

For one, how big is a 5L size outfit? I'm pretty tall 6'3" and not fat, but my shoulders and chest are both stocky. Would I be able to fit into it? And, if I could, would the hem still end at mid-thigh like in the picture?

Are there any people here who have had experience buying products like this?

>>8017242
Don't get some cheap product that's marked for traps

Just go ahead and buy a maid dress measured in your size

>>8018614
Fair point, but I'm not in this for the long run.
I just want a one time costume for a party or wearing around the house. Would a tailor made maid dress be worth the expense for that? This one alone is about $45 (not counting shipping and handling).

>>8019428
>This one alone is about $45
Stop shopping on J-list. Of course it's overpriced.

>>8019444
Overpriced and crappy quality

Even as a one time thing, it would be a lot better to go elsewhere

>>8017242
Don't buy this fucking shit. J-list is awful. Even someplace like cosmates is like better and has larger sizes.

>>8002143
androgyny type crossdressers look amaze
(if anyone has pics post them)

>>8011907
I recognize that wall from /jp/ threads always interesting to see a face

>>8011381
Bump?

>>8023673

>>8027697
that's not crossdressing you pisser

Hey /cgl/, I want to crossdress this carnival - where I'm from anything is acceptable from Halloween costumes over plain silly cloths to normal attire.
It will be my fist time, but I have some female friends to help me and a male friend to join me.
I'm 23, 180cm (~5'11), very slender (to the point of having problems with finding a belt that stays on my waist) but have quite a lot of body hair, especially my eyebrows.
I don't really want people at my workplace to find out, so removal of body hair is fine as long as it's winter, but for my brows I'll run into trouble.

Pic related, makeup by one of my friends, and I think it's too much, I don't really want to go for drag queen.
Eyebrows with glue stick method, also my natural hair but I want to byuy a wig (I only just started checking the threads here).
What would be an easy outfit to pass in? Any other suggestions (except don't do it)?

>>8028071
That lipstick does not match your coloring at all, you need to find makeup that suits you (in this case I'd probably go for less peach, more pink and a little lighter in color for lipstick). If the wig you choose isn't your hair color you will need to find makeup that suits you wearing the wig, not normal you. The foundation is definitely too thick, I can see it clumping up around your eye area and making your face look wrinkly and weird in spots (beyond normal amount of face wrinkling, obviously). Check out female body language and try to emulate it while cross-dressing.

>>8028071
You look like a cadaver

>>8028090
The clumping around the eye might be from the glue stick, but I'll keep it in mind, thanks.
I'm not sue how to pick a matching color, but I guess that's why I have the girls.

>>8028109
Might be because of the wrinkles, the unnatural eye brows (remember, glue stick) or just because I'm fucking pale.
I've never been to a solarium, maybe I should get some artificial tan there?
I guess I'd need to look for matching colors after that, as >>8028090 suggested...

Bumping with self post. The other thread 404'd and we happened to have two of these at the same time somehow.
>>8011365
You mean Bryan? Yeah, he's an avid fan and he's pretty chill too.
>>8011907
Oh hey, it's Matt, I thought he was working on a Yukikaze cosplay, lol
>>8017242
J-List is overpriced and their cosplay products, especially those marketed for traps, aren't very good.

>>8017242
Avoid j-list, it's pretty ridiculous how the get cheap stuff and then overprice it tenfold just to sell "domestically". Go with something from bodyline if you must. Picture related (I'm a boy of course), bodyline has a solid choice of both seifukus and "maid outfits", however shit their design is in general.

In general, go for two-piece only. Onepiece have weird sizes and lengths, it's unpredictable if it's not custom-fit for your size.

Size-wise, I've noticed after several failures, that it differs greatly between uniforms, even though they should have a "fixed" size for all items. 2L appeared once as european M (but lacked a bit in length), once as european S and once as eur L. Most of the times, while oscilating around euro M, I pick 2L-4L to be safe, and typically once every 5 uniforms one comes undersized by half. Avoid "Male"-labeled sizes like the plague - they usually just do the same length, but add some ridiculous "belly" size for waist and hip, so the whole thing looks disfugured as fuck. It's like it's created for hambeast-type ojisans not some relatively fit/thin guys.

>>8028131
It's the eyebrows

>>8030606
Then I'm in trouble. Pic are my real brows.

No way around plucking?
I guess I could go for a little thinner, since I have this much I think it would be acceptable even as a man, but I'm hesitant to make them too feminine...

I could always just get a blond wig and hope people mistake me for Cara Delevingne.

>>8030662
You're in luck that thicker eyebrows for women have been in fashion for a while and are likely to stay popular for quite some time. Bearing this in mind, you can get away with thinning and shaping them only slightly so it won't look too odd or out of place whilst in 'man mode'.

Something like pic related (bottom section) would be perfect for you I think. Remember that this girl has actually grown out her brows to this shape - it's a desirable look for a lot of women right now.

>>8007818
I think anon was saying you're female is much better than you as a male.
I think your make up as a male is too feminine. Maybe some nude/skintone lipstick/color, less heavy eyeliner (just subtle), and maybe less conturing around the nose? You have a great face and I feel tha tyour male make up makes you look worse and hides your features. Your female make up really looks good though.

>>8007644
>>8008441
Do all of you look at this minimized or on mobile? Doesn't look like passing at all in full resolution. Just looks like a horse faced guy. Looks more feminine here >>8007646 to be honest.

>>8030662
>>8030662
You can actually shave them and it will make them grow back just as thickly as before without plucking, as plucking can damage the follicle root.

A good outfit to 'pass' in is something that is fit and flare, and you'll probably need heels (even short ones) to correct your posture and stick out your butt a little more.

You don't want to have bare arms, so look into long sleeves that are loose fitting, and just try to stay away from ugly clothes in general. You will also have to pad yourself out if you want to pass. This includes your hips and ass, so you'll need to cut out foam and shape it, then shove it down a pair of pantyhoes. Silhouette is important in manly vs lady-like, and you'll even hear girls hear complain of their body shapes because they are undesirable. Aka, try to look 'hourglass'. May also involve a waist cincher.

Anyone have a good suggestion for a waist cincher or shapewear that will help bring in the ribcage a bit? I'm definitely skinny enough (5'6" 120lb) but the bottom of my ribs stick out a little bit and that ends up making dresses sit weirdly around my waist/ribcage.

>>8028071
too old, male faces don't age gracefully in terms of feminine looks at all.

>>8030682
>>8030707
Started on one side for the before/after effect.

>>8031941
Might be, I want to give it a shot anyway.

Let me know if these pics are a bother and I'll stop posting them, otherwise I'll keep updating - you guys have been a great help so far.

>>8031975
I didn't mean to say too old to do it, just to clarify.
Just probably too old to pass. It starts to look creepy because men and women age differently. Older crossdressers (and I mean everything over 25 or so) that aim to be passable are incredibly uncanny.

>>8031980
I don't think a blanket statement like that is correct at all. Some guys have babyfaces. I'm 25 and I think ittl still be a while before I'm too old.

>>8032282
And to add on to that, I don't think the guy you quoted would have been passable even when he was younger. It's a genetics thing, and as sad as it is, most guys can't pull it off well =/

How do I know if i have the body to pull of a crossplay? I'm afraid im not feminine enough.

>>8032640
You post a picture here. Wear clothing that doesn't hide your silhouette too much.
There are always things you can do. If your hips aren't wide enough, choose a cosplay with a skirt and petticoat. If your waist isn't curvy enough, wear a corset. You can stuff for tits, but try not to go overboard. Don't make them a surprising something that someone would want to ogle. Keep it natural.
There are tricks to what you wear, too. Avoid puff sleeves like the plague. Heels will make your legs look slimmer, the height is usually worth it. See here >>8028244 etc etc

What do you want to cosplay?

>>8032667
I really want to do a Japanese school girl outfit, and know places that will do custom sizes.
My bust hip waist is B:39.5 W:31 H:38, but a corset might slim my waist down a bit. The things I'm most worried about are that my shoulders are kinda wide and my arms kinda big from working out n stuff. How do other guys deal with upper body issues?

>>8032667
what is it with puff sleeves?

>>8032694
For hands, I use longer sleeves, that go over half of my hand - not sure if that's "cannon", but it does it for me, as my hands look much smaller on pictures. I tried black, silky gloves once as well, but it created an entirely different set of issues and generally backfired (it needs to be fitting into the character setup, otherwise it's looking off-putting and out of place).

For legs - use black or dark overknees or covering stockings, heels that soften sharp shapes of male feet (for a schoolgirl look you can find a lot of different loafers that are rounded and girly - or go with s..sneakers).

No idea for broad shoulders.

>>8032694
Just know for the corset option you would need to do a 'corset training' regimen before you have any solid results. You're starting fairly curvy so that may not be a deal-breaker.

>>8033487
Think Snow White. Pic Related.
Makes arms look bigger.

>>8033487
In general they make shoulders look bigger. Unless you're pretty good about putting outfits together they generally don't look good on crossdressers. I've made them work before but they aren't as easy as other tops.

>>8031975
Looking much better anon! I think you can take it a bit further however as indicated in pic related (created using my mad skills in paint). Don't pluck out the hairs on the upper part of your eyebrow, just trim them across with scissors.

>>8034374
Also holy shit, how did I not take notice?! You have crazy long lashes, learn to curl them and apply a good mascara and I swear to god it will open your eyes right up and look amazing.

Also, a bonus general tip, when looking for clothing that works for your shape, you can also check out women's styling tips for 'inverted triangle' 'v-frame' and 'cone' body shapes.

>>8033687
Well, I got a corset...

A cosplay that made me popular in local weaboo crowd

>>8035335
i wouldnt be surprised if that particular digimon was actually a crossdresser

>>8011907
thought you were gonna stop posting on here matt. not that im complaining. need more cool dudes on cgl.

>>8036110
Joe?

That is a sick Ladydevimon!!

Here's mine, suits are comfy and warm. I have tried open chest binding but I haven't gotten it to last.

what uppp cgl

>>8039143
can i get it with girl mode only?

>>8039143
Saw your makeup video for your Rize cosplay, I thought the wig and falsies really made it come together because of how it framed your face.

Re: your Q&A video, at 7:20, hooly shit plenty of my friends have just gone up to me at some point and touched my chest like that while in crossplay. Damn rude, not to mention embarrassing if done in public.

But let's talk important things, what do you do about your hands? Is there a trick you know of that can keep them from looking too masculine in shots? Many poses require ones hands to be visible, so it can be a complete givaway. For now, I just use gloves like in >>8028135.

>>8028135
so far he's just had me make Shimakaze stuff for him (i.e. all of it)

>>8034374
>>8034406
Trimmed it a little bit further as suggested, however I'm starting to get worried about looking unusual as my normal self, so I'll keep it at that for now - maybe I'll go a bit thinner when I actually wear it, you know, let people get used to it little by little, also gives me the excuse of a costume party.

Didn't expect hearing that about my lashes would make me this happy (haha), definitely looking into this further.

Looked up lots of triangles and general cross dressing clothing, will influence the choice of costume for the occasion, but ultimately I'll have to go with what I can find.

As a general update, our group has decided on colorful wigs, so I ordered a Luka cosplay wig and hope I didn't step on any land mines. If it turns out too bad I can still go to my local sex shop and get a backup wig.

I'm not sure if a corset will be worth it, I am pretty slender already, but I'm aware male midriffs play a big part in silhouette...

I was reading this and I started to think
this is a bit /soc/

>>8002442
you do look like a girl, but like a kind of ugly one. 8/10 boy though, hng

>>8008441
stop opening your mouth like that, it draws attention to your manly jawline

>>8028071
hhhhh uhhhhh that eyebrow glue aint workin for ya buddy. it's making your crowsfeet more obvious. But, I think you could still crossplay if you found makeup that worked for you. Get a more natural lip color, and wax your upper lip instead of shaving it to avoid that shadow.

>>8042411
Yes. We've been over this, see >>8031975

Looking into waxing now.

>>8040870

I don't really do anything with my hands to be honest. I thought they looked manly already so I've just embraced it haha.

Why does epilating suck so much? Apparently it gets better after you do it for a while but damn.

>>8043739
Epilated just today. God damn did I draw the bad lot in body hair genetics...

No idea what I'm going to do about hair in the nether regions. Went in that direction by chance when working on my legs and almost threw the damn thing from the pain.
How does one go about removing an insane amount of hair down there without applying some kind of numbing agent?

>>8042407
Yeah, I agree with you. In pictures where I didn't do that, I feel like I looked better. Case in point, this picture.

>>8044040
I'm probably just gonna go get waxed for those areas. I've done it before and it is a lot less painful I feel.

Idk if I've got the technique wrong or what, but it was terrible. Braun has some you can use in the shower or bath, can anyone recommend them? Seems like they'd work well.

>>8002440
shaggy from scooby doo 8-)

>>8044040
Trim first. I DIY-waxed my genitals for a while but it got really annoying because I'd always miss a spot and have to go back. I gave up and just use a bikini-line trimmer on the whole area.

>>8045266
You sure trimming is going to help with epilating or are you just recommending trimming + a bikini-line trimmer?

>>8019444
>>8023630
>>8023641
>>8028135
>>8028244

Thanks for the advice. I'll look elsewhere for my maid outfit.

>>8028071
Practice with your brows a bit more because it doesn't look too great, especially where it's crusting around your eyes. You also need to blend that concealer out because you have halo brows and it looks weird.

Try these:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4IAa5Bo1Dio

Saw this on FB

>>8045845
I think all yanking your genital hair out hurts less when the hairs are shorter, but I never agreed with the epilator (owned one and used it a couple of times, then went back to waxing, and now trim)

I thought I was good at pretending to be a grill but this guy on my friends list is crazy, hes done at least 100 cosplays

Sucks he's in Singapore would love to meet him in person

>>8047754
So a bikini-line trimmer is basically just a shaver designed for that area?

How's the maintenance on that? I assume it grows back at the rate of facial hair?

Are school swimsuits generally stretchy enough to fit a male body?

I can't really find where to get a decent quality one, so I'm leaning towards this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/161407640527

>>8046363
See >>8042687
Thanks for taking the time to put together these, but I won't use them.

As a general update, I've been out with one of my female friends to shop for clothes, although I ended up not buying anything yet.
A strangely embarrassing but exciting experience. It's a shame I can't draw manga.

New to /cgl/, so sorry if this is a stupid question.
Can any of you recommend good shops that are either based in or ship to the UK, preferably places online as I can imagine it is pretty awkward buying this from a store?

>>8051425
Shops for what exactly?

I'm surprised that nobody has done Ashley yet

>>8048433
Make sure your measurements are within the range given on the product. If your numbers are below their listed numbers you're safe.

That feel when MtF and this is your first con since living as a grill entirely and scared that people will clock you more as a guy at the con

Probably doesn't help I'm cosplaying as a 2hu character, but I haven't been called male in the past several months so ;w;

I have a friend that likes crossplaying and wants to do it more, but 2 problems are finding shoes that fit him (he's otherwise a pretty skinny petite asian), and getting rid of his facial hair. No matter how much he shaves his mustache, it always comes back with a little bit of shadow. I was wondering if something like the gluestick on brows and smoothing with a spoon would work for that area too, or no?

>>8055026
Just use Nair

>>8054904
What 2hu did you cosplay?

>>8055026

no no! dont use nair! he could get some nasty chemical burn and you DEFINITELY shouldnt put it on his face! let alone anyones face.
just dont use nair, it can seem like a good idea and works on some people, but the risk your taking with some permanent burns and scars is really big. not safe at all!
if youre looking for really no hair at all for a while, try waxing, there are plenty of ways and tutorials for homemade wax with household products. waxing usually last about a week or two. the gluestick method miiiiight work, probably not, just test it.
i cant help with shoes though.

>>8055245
Waxing facial hair for men isn't that much of a step up from Nair though. The hair follicles are rooted deeper and are thicker or some shit so it'll be more like waxing off head hair than waxing off leg hair.

I think the best thing you can do is colour-correct the area the drag queen way.

>>8010488
Bit more makeup and you'd look even better. Rosey cheeks and mascara, natural looking though.

>>8055162
I'm hoping to cosplay Kaguya at the next con but that's in a few weeks from now and my awful procrastinating poor self is possibly locking me out of cosplaying that. Might have to do Homura again even though I'm pretty sure it was painfully tight on me last year ;~;

Pretty sure some 4channer's opinion doesn't matter since I get called "she", "her" and get asked whether I'm on my period or not, but have at it.

http://imgur.com/mv35f8u The wig was falling off a bit.

I just can't wear this anymore since my bust is a bit too big to fit the costume anymore and it'd be suffering. I need a new cosplay bad in ~16 days...

>>8055445
You very much look passable
but not very cute

This is the first time I've seen someone pass as an ugly girl

Is this a good thread to get info on binders? I'm already really flat-chested, but I'm looking for something that will give me a more masculine silhouette. Are there binders that also fill out the waist? I have a small waist and want to look more triangular (instead of the pear that I am).

>>8055631
You might want to look into padding if you're looking to fill out your waist. A binder is more for compression.

>>8055664
That's kind of what I figured, but I'm pretty new to crossplay so I want sure if there was anything built together or something. So if I made like a neoprene cincher type thing that might work?

>>8055631
to branch off this anon, I'm pretty flat chested but I'm always worried about my thighs/hips/butt, are there any good tips/poses/binders that could help with those areas?

>>8055370
Thanks! We lost one of the fake lashes when we going to apply, so we just winged it.

>>8007646
Sanegeyama shouldn't look like a Drag queen in the face.
This isn't to be offensive just the makeup and look on your face throws the character itself WAAAAAY out of wack.

>>8056855
No offense taken, of course. I had decided to switch into Aikuro and I had already started drinking, so this is the leftover makeup from when I had been Junko earlier in the day. That's why it looks off.

>>8055245
You don't get chemical burns unless you leave it on for a half hour longer than the recommended time or something, and the only time you'd get scarring is if you have an allergic reaction... which can be avoided by doing a test patch in an hidden spot on your body. They even make gentler Nair specifically for facial applications.

>>8055416

Any opinions guys?

I'd love to try to pull off a good crossplay, and would go all the way if you guys think I could pass for a girl. It's ok if I look unattractive / not cute, as long as it's not so bad that it goes into the negative and I'm really ugly (hurts or annoying to look at).

Any tips/advice for me for crossdressing in general? I'm 6 feet. I didn't use any makeup, I'm guessing making my eyelashes darker and thicker would really help.

There were a lot of things I could have done better in this picture (hair wasn't cut that well and in wrong position, costume was being worn loosely, pose didn't turn out as intended, etc.), and my legs are also off the picture (but decently slim and not bulky or angular, also bow legged).

But aside from that, and from reading around, the following things should help?
1) Cover my eyebrows with hair (100% necessary or not? Would eyebrow styling or partially showing be better?)
2) Hair on the sides should have covered my big/wide head.
3) Can hide my chin a bit with the big scarf.

Thanks very much in advance.

Thanks very much in advance.

>>8044051
Dee? is that you?

>>8055445
Were you ever at ACen? I swear I've seen you before and you totally passed.

>>8055445
mind if i ask you your height and weight? I think you pass pretty well

>>8055445

On first impression and later impression, you look like a girl. Congrats.

You're not really the cute kind but you're not ugly. You're good looking.

>>8057272
>And how do I decide whether to wear my glasses or not? (At least for pictures).
Get contacts or take them off for pictures every single time.

I'm trying to get more into crossplaying and just wearing makeup in general, since I'm super super new to it. I did a Rose makeup test about a week ago, and I think it came out pretty well. Any suggestions on what else I can do to pass? I'm still trying to learn how to contour, and I'm going to get a better wig (one that doesn't have blunt bangs). I'm also planning on shaving a bit of my eyebrows off so I can partially draw them on.

>>8057762
>Any suggestions on what else I can do to pass?
Save up money for a new jaw line.

>>8057762
Little tip -- don't shave your eyebrows at all. Unless that's what you really want to do. You'll most likely end up regretting it since it would just be for a cosplay.
Just do the covering method for the parts you initially want to shave (glue, concealer, etc. There's loads of tutorials on youtube) and then you can draw the parts on that you want without having to sacrifice your real brows!

>>8057735

Thanks. I was wondering if maybe certain glasses might help with looking more feminine. I'll keep doing that!

>>8057762
Don't shave your brows! They look pretty damn nice as they are. Also you can now get eyebrow mascaras (some of the Korean and Japanese brands are particularly good) that will temporarily lighten their appearance with pretty decent results. I personally wouldn't bother with all the sticking and covering tutorials.

It's great that you've started experimenting with make-up, considering you're so new it's not a bad attempt (I think many people forget what their make-up applying skills were like in the very beginning). It does look quite 'beginner' like at this stage however, your eyeliner is a bit blobby and your lip-line doesn't quite follow the contour of your lips and isn't very neat. Practice makes perfect of course and you've made a good start, but I also think there's a lot of room for improvement. It's cool though, it's all a learning process.

I would suggest using a softer pencil eyeliner or possibly using eyeshadow with a damp brush to avoid hash looking lines. On the whole, softer makeup (even in cosplay) will create a more feminine look. Learn to soften and blend your eyeliner a little better and you'll be well on your way.

>>8057780
That sounds good, thank you!

>>8057877
notice how much softer this particular make-up version looks without the harsh lines.

>>8057884
I've indicated (in glorious ms paint) where I think you should put your highlight and contours. You don't necessarily have to make it really complicated like some kinda grueling, face restructuring kim kardashian type routine, just apply in the areas indicated and keep practicing!

>>8057884
Ooh yeah, that looks way better. Are there any specific brands/items I should buy? I've been buying cheap makeup from Walgreens and the like, but I did get a black eye liner pen from Sally's last week that's pretty nice.

Also, not on the topic of Rose, but I'm going to be cosplaying Link in about a week or so. I was going to just watch a makeup tutorial, but I know I would have to adjust it since I'm biologically a dude, and I'm also cosplaying the pink hair version. I'm not necessarily trying to pass as a girl for that one, but I would definitely like to look more feminine/androgynous. Do you have any suggestions?

>>8057893
thank you so much! this is super super helpful!

>>8057905
No problem! As for brands, I'm not sure what to suggest exactly since I'm based in the UK. Bourjois is the international brand that springs to mind that has excellent eyeshadow and eyeliners for the price. Their foundations are really good too.

As far as contouring goes, I think this is actually where you should be prepared to spend the most money if necessary, other anons may have some recommendations as it's not something I've bought myself.

>>8057899
ok, so I had a look around and considering you appear to be very pale with pink undertones (even taking into account the lighting in the photo, camera settings etc which has exaggerated this) I think the original Anastasia Beverly Hills Contour Kit would be perfect for you.

So many of the kits around would be far too dark and orangey for you but this one is a bit paler and cooler in tone.

>>8057944
I second this! It's fantastic, and is powder so very forgiving unlike creme or liquid contouring products. A little goes a long way in this palette. Can be found at any Ulta/Sephora if you don't like shopping online.

I'm very pale with yellow undertones, and this is my new favourite. As a beginner it would work very well for you, and many experienced people use it as well.

>>8057944
I've indicated the two colors I think would be most suitable for you for contouring.

>>8057849
If the character has glasses then sure - go for that style. Otherwise it just looks odd to have casual glasses.

>>8057899
For a more androgynous look, follow the same highlight and contour areas as suggestions in the ms paint version, but simply don't cut down or round the lower jawline quite so much. Then follow an eye make-up tutorial such as pic related.

Bump

Just curious, how did you guys learn how to do make-up? Did you just follow tutorials online or have a friend help you? I've crossplayed before but without make-up and felt kind of dumb without it.

>>8017242
Have a sissy/maid dress custom made for you. Get measured professionally, and give a little more at the waist. The cost is high, but the tailoring is worth it. A good fitting dress will look great no matter what the material is made from.

>>8042779
I see. If anything, I find that if your hands are going to be in the shot, then to adjust them such that the side is perpendicular to the shot so that it won't look as large. Another anon, I think Neet, also recommended to raise one's arms shortly before the shot so that the blood flows out of the veins, keeping them from showing in the shots.
>>8045924
If you have a large budget, I would recommend Milky Ange. I got my uniform from them and the quality is top-notch, not to mention they're quite helpful in determining your size. Alternatively, you can try Candyfruit as I hear that brand is also good but I don't have firsthand experience.
>>8055416
Ayyy lmao
>>8057272
You may want to head over to somewhere like Sephora where someone can help you choose foundation appropriate for your skin tone. Aside from that, I recommend eye makeup (liner, shadow, mascara, false eyelashes why not) and shadow/highlighting countouring pencil. As for glasses, if you need them, I don't think it's bad if they show in the shot. A photographer shouldn't be using flash anyway if you're concerned about light reflecting off the lens.
>>8057762
Drop the lipstick, don't line your entire eye with eyeliner, and use a brush to soften hard edges.
>>8061718
Plenty of trial and error. Make sure to always practice something before going out with it. I also hang out here, practice Youtube tutorials, and ask people to help you while shopping for cosmetics.
>>8062065

Fucking hell

Are there any good tutorials for fake breasts and/or hips/ass? I'm thinking about doing a full-body costume that I can play with my figure enough to pull it off.

>>8062802
Yes.
Wear three bras, or maybe just buy foam ones.

Because bras are fuckin expensive by that point.

>Want to cosplay something full-body because not ecchi level androgynous
>Imagine walking around with jiggly tits, round ass and stiletto heels
>Imagine letting everyone take pictures and letting lonely nerds get away with feeling my ass

>Feel bad because most would probably be upset I was a guy and there's probably not padding convincing enough for a lewd crossplay even if all skin is covered
>Dreams of being an ahegao'd slut fade away

>>8062935
Ladies, gentlemen, and gentlemen who dress as ladies, this is how you know when to abandon a thread.

>>8002143
This isn't a crossplay, I know her.

What about Kigurumi? Anything special needed when crossplaying with them?

>>8066552
Maybe voice lessons. Otherwise if it's complete body suit then you don't have to worry so much.

Maybe mannerisms?

>>8066723
I second this. Just thought I'd put this suggestion out there. I know with crossdressing it's often suggested to go for skirts and dresses that nip in at the waist then flair out, as well as pad the hips etc where necessary, but I don't think this should be a steadfast rule. If you're not cosplaying a specific character and you just want to go for something comfortable yet feminine without all the padding prep and whatnot then 'laganlooks' and strega type fashion may be an option. It's not for everyone but the multiple layers are very forgiving and can be flattering. Just make sure not to go for anything too top heavy in terms of fabric, keeping the bulk of the layering to the lower half of the body. The advice for avoiding puff sleeves, square necklines etc still applies.

A fantastic added bonus of this style is you can wear super comfy flat or low heel boots with these looks and they'll look great whilst being comfy. If you wear a euro 42 or less you should have no problem at all finding women's shoes in your size.

>>8066723
mannerisms are def extremely important, in all honestly sometimes I can immediately tell someone is crossdressing when viewing them from behind, not because of their body shape, but because of the way they are walking. The stereotypical 'manly' walk often involves putting a lot more weight on the feet, which gives the walk a sorta 'stompy' appearance. Definitely look into changing your walk/mannerisms. Some people seem to naturally have more of a neutral/androgynous walk and these people don't need to worry so much.

>>8068616
But those clothes are ugly anon...

>>8068654
well, that's like, just your opinion man. Seriously though, I did say it 'wasn't for everyone' but some people find the look very attractive and appealing, so it goes. The simple outfit in the middle strikes me as the least 'out there' of the bunch. In my opinion, the best way to make the style work is with really pretty hair and make-up, this brings the whole look together and makes it less 'just crawled out of a dumpster' and more ethereal.

>>8068688
It might work if you're a really cute petite girl, but that is a horrible suggestion for crossdressers. Unless they're going for a genderbent hagrid.

>>8068716
well, considering it's a style I've seen recommended for (and pulled off well by) inverted triangle (ie the natural shape of most men) shape women and larger body frames, I don't think it's necessarily a terrible idea and worth consideration. It needn't be a frumpy look and can be scaled back/toned down. Mori girl style, another 'layering' look, tends to be even more feminine looking.

Mori girl often gets called 'petite girl fashion' sure, but not regular European lagenlook style.

>>8069064
Yeah but inverted triangle chicks often have huge boobs rather than just broad chest/shoulders...

>>8069074
ok, now that's just crap. You can be a 'V' simply because of your unusually disproportionate bust to hip ratio sure and you do see 'huuge boob's V types, but 'often' or 'predominately' would be a stretch. I'm a small-chested inverted triangle for starters and there are plenty of us about. If anything, larger breasts with an inverted triangle shape makes you look even less in proportion/emphasizes the relative lack of hips. Anyway, cross dressers can adjust boobage accordingly, it's not so easy/commonplace for women to do the same outside of cosplay.

You could do a 'huge boob inverted triangle' counter collage or whatever if you were so inclined but the point is, smaller breasts + 'V' shape is hardly uncommon.

Not sure if kinda trolling (but I'm debating on 4chan so I've lost either way).

>>8062465

Thank you!

bad quality but does it look acceptable?

Ah, sorry forgot about thread :s

>>8055490
Gee, thanks anon, I certainly benefited from reading that.

>>8057346
Nah, only Ohayocon. I really wished to go to ACen, I wanted to see my idol Yuki Kajiura. ;~;

>>8057466
I'm 5'8" (or 5'7", been a while since I checked). I was about 160lbs-ish at the time. The worst part about that cosplay was that I ordered it overseas and ordered it without custom sizing; things like my shoulders got in the way. Not sure how to measure them but they're longer than an average cis female's, probably.

>>8057714
Aww, thanks. I kind of figured; I'll never be the uguu~ cute girl, but, eh, not everyone is. Especially not MtF's that transition after 20.

I give up cosplaying for Ohayocon coming up in a week, since I can't sew. Ahaha, being born a guy.

>>8071304
No.

>>8071304

You don't look really cute but you could go for a pretty/plain look. Your face doesn't look overly masculine. Use some make up for the eyes?

>>8071304
take a better picture

though umm.. your not the best looking

>>8071304
not quite sure what other anons are seeing here, what i see is a poor quality picture of an attractive person, I think you have great bone structure although tbh I do think you look more androgynous than feminine.

Try to take pictures in better light if you can (natural light from a window or outdoors is best). It's very difficult to see what needs working on as it is.

Based on your pic alone, if you want to create a more obviously feminine look, fill in your eyebrows inwards a little more, add a heavier eyeline on your upper eyelid and create fuller looking/use false lashes. Also consider circle lenses as your irises are quite small. Finally, shade-contour your jawline in the areas I've indicated. It's shitty ms paint, but hopefully you get the idea.

Hi seagulls, this thread seems more helpful than makeup thread. Could you please give >>8071439 and >>8072755 a hand?

Alright, so I'm a beginner when it comes to crossplay. Do any of you have any tips for what I can do to appear more masculine? I already do basic contouring, but what more can I do?
Any help would be appreciated.

>>8074288
I'm a beginner too but a few things I noticed were:

>Binding
>Hiding your curves
>Walking more like a guy
>Wearing pants that sit lower at the hips.

>>8074303
Would you happen to have any suggestions for a safe binder to use? And wow, I wouldn't have even thought about the pants idea. That really helps a lot. Thank you!

>>8074318

>>8074314
Someone had a tutorial on how to make muscles on YoucanCosplay but I can't find it. I'll try to post it here when I can find it again.

(Clapping intensifies) Bravo~ <3

Not Much of a cosplay but this is me crossdressing a while back. For an upcoming con im gonna crossplay BRS strength.

>>8002143
dont know if this thread is dead or not but i am just starting out but my friends say i could pass really easy. this is was what i look like without makeup

>>8078078
and me with makeup

>>8077534
pls be my boyfriend

>>8078078
easily pass, yup but the funny thing is, you look more feminine/androgynous without the makeup tbh. You really don't need such heavy make-up, something along the lines of pic related would be good I reckon. You could probably trim your eyebrows a little too, in the 'korean' style so it doesn't look too odd when you want to be more boyish/manly.

Also get a feminine looking wig. Something that just sits on the shoulders would be good although I think you could pull of a shorter bob/curly bob type cut.

Not a fan of the ginormous hipster glasses but you do pull them off, consider slightly more rounded, smaller, girlish frames.

>>8078279
hey, have a collage too, why not(?). If you need to wear glasses most of the time, you could always just opt for a unisex second pair, or pic up some second hand/ex display frames (super cheap on ebay etc) and get your prescription lenses affixed to them (can also be done on the cheap).

>>8078078
I just saw you on tinder! Holy shit.

>>8074318
but you pass more in the first one.

Saw this on tumblr the other day, Not sure if its crossplay or what though

Duh, first time I'm doing something with zettai ryouiki and while I always shave my legs for crossplay I've always wore like stocking or something so it didn't matter. Problem is my skin gets kinda irritated and red (and since I'm going to show bare skin) after shaving so is there anything how to shave my legs properly to avoid that?

Also why do I feel more I practice my make up I get worse. I still can't get into fucking shading and I'm currently mirin' this person called Rin-senpai he's crazy good.

>>8081330
I don't shave, but epilating and moisturizing after seems to leave my skin without the redness/irritation.

>>8081330
start shaving your legs a few days, maybe even a week or two, before the convention. bot sure how much leg hair you have, but there's more irritation if its longer so it helps to start early to avoid it. like >>8081545 said, depilating is good for not leaving a dark cast but it is a bit painful if you aren't used to it.

>>8081568
wow my english is stunning today.

>>8081568
If you can handle it the first time it only gets easier the subsequent times. The smoothness and how long it keeps is great for a non-medical procedure.

>>8078089

>>8084078

>>8084207

>>8079798
Can we get sauce on this?
Who the fuck are they even cosplaying?

>>8081330
Exfoliate before you shave. It'll remove most of the dead skin cells and make shaving easier. You can buy products or use baking soda with warm water for a paste.

Keep your razor sharp and clean using hot water in between strokes. Make your strokes short and sweet - you don't want to clog up the blades with hair (if you do happen to let your leg hair grow out, trim them down with an electric shaver before going for a close shave). I suggest getting an after shave/hair removal product. It may sting and smell like men's after shaving products, but I like using this product called "The Cool Fix" - you can find it at Ulta and you don't need to use much of it, so a little goes a long way.

If you're lucky to live near one, I suggest popping by The Art of Shaving for some more advice. Personally, I prefer getting waxed on those areas since it lasts longer than shaving and especially if you have dark and course hair like me.

Do Japanese clothing stores (hobbyline, etc) sell clothes for taller individuals? I'm 6'1", skinny as hell and have been interested in crossplay for a while, but haven't really known where to start. I'll take a picture of myself if a reference will help.

>>8088807
>Hobbyline
Wow, I'm tired. I meant bodyline.

>>8078081
You are so cute.

mfw op's picture is a girl i know and she's not a crossplayer

Need advice, I've cross played before (as a girl being a boy) and i have a binder that's now 2 years old. I can't tell if it's just expanded or if my boobs are too big to be pushed down all the way.
Pic for reference, also C/D cup for reference (I'm in the middle)

tldr; should I buy a new binder or will it not matter because my boobs are too big?

>>8092928
thank you mobile for fucking up screen orientation

Here's another photo for ref

>>8092928
I have DDs and Underworks has a binder that works perfectly for me. Sounds like you wore your binder out, or it was kind of cheap. In the future, you might want to rotate your photos before posting them.

Trans man here. Take into consideration that you're slender with wide-ish hips, sometimes you need to improvise a little. I had a similar problem with binders, I wasn't buying them small enough to give me a flat chest, and I wasn't doing anything to make up for a very femme hip/waist ratio. You can try tightening the binder just a little by using a sewing machine to take in a small amount on the back, just be very careful. Use a strong stitch. I'd also advice finding ways to pad your sides, to give the illusion that your hips and trunk have a straighter line to them. I hope that helps somewhat.

>>8092928
They look like they got worn out. That being said, I can't compare it to what it looked like before so...

>>8092933
Yeah, they were oriented fine until I put them in clover, dunno what happened. What binder would you recommend from underworks?

>>8092960
Okay this is probably gonna sound hella stupid but how do you pad your sides?? I do have a smaller waist/bigger hips so crossplaying is difficult for me because I don't know shit about it

>>8092970

Well, there are a few ways to do it. I'd suggest sewing yourself some small pillow-shaped pads that run the length of your waist, with most of the stuffing in the center. If you have a long enough binder, you can arrange them under it. If not, take a tight fitting shirt (work out shirts, snug fitting tanks, or even one of those shape-wear pieces that are meant to smooth your stomach) and do the same. It's a bit tricky to get it right, but trust me.

As for crossplay, it'll get easier once you find what builds your confidence in it. I was always told early on to be grateful that the big chest/smaller waist/big hips issue is one that you fix by adding and smoothing the shape. There are plenty of cross dressers and trans men who have to worry more about finding ways to pull fat in than finding something to even curves out, it just takes some experimenting to find what works best for you. I know someone who uses small hand towels to do the same thing, but I'm not sure that's a good idea. It seems to me like it would cause sweating, and hold a smell to it.

>>8092979
Yeah my binder is pretty long, like a shirt long
So quite literally side pads.

Yeah small hand towels sound uncomfortable as well. I have some extra stuffing for dolls and such in my trunk, I'll have to make something out of that. Thanks so much for the help, I can't wait to see how it all turns out! :>

Anyone here tried making one of those fake chest muscle suit things? Any stories on how that went? I'm thinking of taking a jab at it since I've obtained an airbrush recently, but I'm not sure how to go about making it look decent and passable.

Tell me what to do to become more manry. pls & ty.

kill yourself

Looks more like Dennis tbh.

>>8093155
The make up under the eye is so awful, it just.... ehh gross. The pose is awkward, if you're cosplaying a guy (and you're female) try not to bring attention to your hands in photos.

>>8028071
chris chan is that you?

>>8093672
Might want to tell Siniristiotakut (Or whoever the cosplayer is) to invest in a higher quality outfit and perhaps a wig as he looks like he is balding.

That Haruka though, I want one

>>8093728
THAT DIDNT HELP ME AT ALL.

>>8095245
start lifting landwhale.
you can't be a sheep in wolf's clothing.
it doesn't work.

>>8094112
He has a name?

>>8095298
Don't know, I just grabbed it using the Facebook filename.

Best place to get clothes?

I'm thinking of having someone make something for me, but I'm not sure how measurements work to hide the masculine body

When crossplaying, how should I get boobs?

Stuff bras, breast forms?

>>8095989
The same places you would get any other clothes...

>>8098347
Depends what you're wearing and how life like you want it to be.
Do not use water balloons and I repeat, DO NOT USE WATER BALLOONS!

>>8098347
If you're just experimenting before investing in breast forms, perhaps try the 'uncooked rice inside stockings' method, obviously they don't feel natural but they do look and sit right as long as you don't over-fill. Plenty of info out there about how best to do it.

I found this one in tumblr, love it, buy dont know who is he

>>8101540
Reverse image search brought up the name immediately, and lots of other pics of him.
I'm >>8098503, and I'm not sure if I should be jealous or aroused.

>>8101936
oh fuck, i always forget this. thx

>>8098735
That sounds like it'll be a little more effective than my method.

>>8010488
Crossplaying 2hus are my fetish.

>>8101540
>>8101936
Seriously, I can't get enough of him. I dump some pics from his twitter.

>>8103827

>>8103830

I would fellate him, no homo.

How is his face? Does he even post pics without it covered?

Sure his body is nice and all, but it kinda follows the "guise look at my feminine legs heuehehue" trope for me.

Face is more important trap wise over body imo, you can go out out in public and trap people with a nice face, but if even if your body is feminine, if you have a man face its game over

Of course, having both is ideal. I'm not trying to be a fatty lover or anything

Wasn't there some law that japanese minors can't put their faces online?
I only vaguely remember it, so I might be wrong, but what I do know is that those shoulders can't fully be through puberty.

First time cosplaying, the costume is a bit of a shambles atm but i'm working on that (still missing bits and pieces and the wig is a bit of an unruly monstrosity) - but what i'd like an opinion on is how I can work on my makeup to look more feminine - I think I need to do something more around the eye area and practice contouring.

Honest question

Has anyone met/is trans/crossdresser that wasn't/isn't kinda crazy and not in the fun way?

>This thread is still alive
Not even in autosage, I guess due to not being convention season.
>>8101540
He is nemunemunnn on Twitter. The images are kind of lewd so I'm not surprised he decides to hide his face.
>>8104359
Well, I can say I'm not crazy, but other crossplayers I've met irl all seem to be normally functioning, healthy human beings as well. They're chill for the most part, may have a quirk or two but that doesn't necessarily mean a bad thing, it just makes them more interesting.

>Jesus christ, that's a really nice petit ass.

>>8104530
>>8104359
I'm a trans that isn't crazy nor a special snowflake. Most people don't assume I am trans though.

Can anyone post guides or something on how I can into make-up?
