Looking good so far anon! You've got a great figure for Ladybug as well.

I'm planning a Volpina cosplay at the moment, (no pics as I'm waiting for the money to pick up fabric) and I'll be doing Ladybug as well at a later date!

>>8943994
Looks awesome! I love the suit how'd you make it so form fitting. Did you use a pattern?

>>8943994
Looks good so far anon!
I am working on an Antibug cosplay myself. But I only have the wig so far, so not much to show here.

>>8944032
Thankyou! And thats awesome please post pics!

>>8944038
Its the yaya han bodysuit :) and thankyou!

>>8944054
Please post pics when you have more! I always want to see more miraculous cosplays ^-^

>>8944075
If the thread is stil up then I will.
I'm still figuring out the best way to make her sword.

Since i began to watch this series, i am thinking about to make one. But I have so much other cosplays to do, that i would make one when season 2 is out.

Any cosplays of the villains yet? Some of them look so awesome. I am not nearly skilled enough for Reflekta but I love her design.

I'd like to do Volpina and Lady WiFi after I finish Ladybug.
Wasn't there an anon who was working on making a custom fabric print for LB?

>>8944188
If you saw that on another thread it was me!

I've actually got the print designed and set up on PS, my next plan is to create an actual bodysuit pattern to have printed so i can just cut and sew. I suck at math however, so it'll be a pain ensuring the measurements are right on photoshop.

OP your suit looks great! I'm still working on my suit, will be done for a con at the end of the month

>>8944173
Somebody posted Stormy Weather in the self thread >>8939459

>>8944188
I'm the anon making the custom print fabric that's just a repeat of spots and stuff. I am still swatch testing, but I made a black honeycomb fabric available on Spoonflower for LB's collar and Chat Noir.

>>8944079
If I had to make that sword I'd make it into different parts with stiff foam and then apply modge podge (or other foam sealer) then paint and assemble/glue the parts together (or vice versa with painting and assembling the parts)

But good luck anon!

>>8944230
You're too fat for the bodysuit. Can't pull off the silhouette. Do her normie clothes if you want to cosplay her.

I'm working on her yoyo, but I'm being really picky with it and trying to make it so that it can close & open and have a separate top piece so I can do the open version with the wings that it has when she releases the butterflies, so it's taking a while. I'm working on Chat's staff too but that's easy so far at least, but I have no idea how to do the paw on the back and spirals on the top since it's made of wood and difficult to engrave in.

>>8943994
>not latex

>>8943994
Know what'd be a a miracle? Getting Nickelodeon USA to fucking finally air the rest of the episodes.
People, get on their social media accounts / Facebook and tell them to get their act together.

Saw this Ladybug two weeks ago

>>8944230
You need to remake that mask, the texture looks like vomit.

>>8944473
Those wonky nipple dots, I cannot unsee

>>8944473
>painted on mask
>spots falling off
>visible underwear
>is that a cardboard yoyo
>is she even wearing shoes

oh, ohmyeggs, once again ruining another character that I love. the sad fact is she won judges award for this.
Standard brit quality.

>>8944493
Chloé the saltmeister. Tell us more on how you hate things.

>>8944525
if anything she's nitpicking more than salting.
Though I agree, that that person made a very mediocre cosplay, and does not have the right frame for it either. Cute face though, ish.

>>8943994
this is so awful wtf haha

>>8943994
Nice corset

>>8944623
There's no corset but thanks for that little confidence boost ;)
What you're seeing are the seams in the suit, its the yaya han bodysuit after all

>>8944230
Bodysuit looks mostly fine so far, except for the finger, but I really think you should remake the mask. It looks uneven and too shiny and wrinkly.

>>8944439
Touch salty aren't we anon?
She looks fine, she's got a good figure. Marinette's proportions are close to unobtainable irl anyway.

>>8945314
different anon, model in question is a tiny bit on the chubby side, but methinks the original cosplay is still attainable. -5 pounds wouldn't kill her however.

>>8945315
Nothing some shapewear underneath wouldn't help. I intend to use shapewear + tights underneath my own suit to tone up my figure a little.

I don't get people who are just flat out shitty instead of giving helpful concrit like anon i was replying to.

I'm always lurking here but you finally got me. Here's version 1 of my ladybug cosplay. I already remade the whole thing again but I won't be wearing it until fanime.

I improved the spot size and placing, mask, the bulbs on the wig, added interfacing to the neck part, and the fit of the suit specifically around my wrists

>>8945505
I like the material, what did you use? (Especially for the spots if you can move them.)

>>8945505

This looks pretty nice actually, the dots could be a bit more evenly spaced i guess, but the rest is nice. Shitty grainy pic tough.

>>8945505
>cropping out chat
pls

>>8943994
Why are the spots so close did you even bother marking out where they should go or did you just glue them on while is was on the floor of your dirty room.

>>8945607
Friends don't post friends on cgl, anon. Good on her for cropping.

>>8945505
Yo body is bangin, anon.

So is there any hope that this series won't become a circlejerk clusterfuck like Stephen Universe?

>>8946189
>Stephen

Are you triggered?

watch out cgl, you've angered a real celebrity here

>>8946287
>responding to that shitty bait
You're very hot but letting that anon know s/he triggered you was not the best move senpai.

>>8946287
Jesus those tats.

>>8946346
they bad

>>8946343
>very hot
Hoo boy, you ain't seen their Gou cosplay.

>>8943994
I'm not a cosplayer but I really want to do Ladybug, but I can't sew for shit.
Was thining of buying a glossy red zentai suit and maybe painting/stenciling the spots on. Opinions: will a glossy one look bad? I don't know how I could get a similar texture to her suit.

Any tips on what kind of paint to use? I'm looking on zentaizone and zentai-zentai but the stuff looks a little off/ with bad edges. Any gull with website recommendations? Will I have to go on creepy fetish sites?

>>8945540
The suit is Red metallic spandex and the black is the same material. Both have a lot of stretch. With this version I sadly hot glued the spots on due to lack of time but the new version I used heat n' bond which works well if you iron them on while the fabric is stretched(people make the mistake of just ironing them on flat then they fall off when you stretch the suit).

>>8945550
>>8946249
Yah horrible quality hopefully this one is better. It was a small con so I had to take what I could get even if that meant kit lens quality, crop made it worse

>>8946249
>>8945675
Thanks! Good to hear since I have a lot of issues with the way I look (doesn't everyone)

>>8945611
Couldn't have said it better anon

>>8946696
OP here
God I'm jealous! Your suit looks amazing

>>8946919
You should be jealous hahaha

>>8946919
Don't be OP, your suit is well constructed. You're on the right track! Just like me the thing you can improve on is spot placement if you ever remake it again! As you can see I had that problem too but fixed it the second time around

>>8946287
kek, bawleeted

>>8944473

>>8947032
are you blind? or just attracted to fuggs?

>>8946696
Dayyumm that's one of the best Miraculous I've seen
>>8943994 You're doing pretty well for the start, keep at it and hope to see you both for a picture at con sometime =D

Look who's doing Miraculous

What type of underwear would you wear under the suits so that they're not visible or obvious? Sorry if noob question

>>8947300
There's seamless underwear for formal wear available from various sources. Google.

>>8947277
Literally who? Lmao

>>8947277
Dunno who that is, but at least the mask doesn't look like diseased skin.

>>8947277
Am I suppose to know who this is?

gurl you are just asking for it

Chub with a honker for a nose. The epitome of insecure attention whore. Why are these shitters self-posting then getting publicly buttmad at dumb anon comments?

>>8947644
Chill your vendetta

>>8947654
No vendetta. She's basically a lolcow.

>>8947662
Nobody knows who she is, so it's no better than a vendetta if you're not going to explain/stop shitting up the thread with vague shenanigans

>>8947670
I like this girl's normal Marinette. I know her photos are over exposed, but the final product is cute so idgaf.

>>8947670
sounds like you need to get the sand out of your vagina.

>>8947701
You need to either explain or shut the fuck up, how hard is it to get this.
>hurr dis bitch so shitty

Ok, so you're just randomly spouting catchphrases then? Cool beans newfag, you'll fit in soon.

>>8945451
>I don't get people who are just flat out shitty instead of giving helpful concrit like anon i was replying to.
Nobody is required to give you helpful advice. If you're modest and ask for it, you might get some helpful advice, but if you post something that's not that great on 4chan, you should expect to get some rude comments.
If that makes you upset, maybe you should use tumblr instead

I want to do Marinette but I'd like a fabric with texture as she's got kind of a mesh print on her fabric and no idea how to do the spots.

My friend whose doing Cat Noir is thinking of using wet look lycra but I'm not sure it'll work. But I don't know if there's a thin stretch pleather? Any advice /cgl/ ?

>>8947768
I like the look of this fabric in suits

Kek sharing selfies in a sports bra for not eating one day is the epitome of "body positivity" for iPhone users.
>makes sob story about "haters"
>leaves out self posting

This behavior just shows some will take any opportunity to start a witchhunt based off their own lies.

>>8947277
XWhiterussia is her cosplay name

>>8947761
Original comment isn't even that bad or wrong. It's not like "fat" is a bad word. Unstructured bodysuits leave about zero room for error. Even Chat's bodysuit looks more flattering.

Everyone expects critique to be sandwiched between compliments. Babies.

>>8948079
>Everyone expects critique to be sandwiched between compliments.
Compliments help define the negatives. I never list all negatives unless its absolutely irredeemable.

Help pls I am absolutely shit at sewing.
Is there any place to get particularly nice quality suits for both Ladybug and Chat Noir? Obviously I'd have to add the spots for Ladybug, but I guess besides the Zentai suits on Ebay are there any better options?

>>8948184
Seconding this. The Zentai suits I can find have iffy-looking seams or the fabric is terribly plain (basic spandex).

>>8948184
If you aren't going to make it yourself, it'll probably not fit as well as you want no matter where it's from. Also the lack of options for patterns/quality was why I started making my own in Photoshop.

>>8948184
You could start with fetish wear and apply the black spots. Many have used spandex so far, so why not use latex? Pic related, form Fantastic Rubber.

>>8949071
I honestly think that's too shiny. It would certainly be tight enough, but the material would just be off.

>>8949071
I agree something like this would work but it would have to have the zipper in the back since there's no visible one on Ladybug's front. Anon would need to know how to sew latex in order to make her hands and feet though (and order something in the same color from the same site to use the fabric for), unless she got a custom order or the site sold socks/gloves in the same material.

>>8949079
>too shiny
The official pictures are very shiny, more like structured latex than spandex. Pic related.

>>8949080
>zipper in the back
Hers is zipperless. Fantastic Rubber also does zipperless but when you want to spend a few hours in the suit and nature calls and you got an armband on entry you really don't want to undress completely. With a neck entry suit you need only a short zipper unike the old type suit where you either had a front or back zipper that went all the way to the neck.

>>8949108
I dunno, latex still seems like too much. Especially when Lady has those small patterns. For a perfect replica I think it would have to be 100% custom made fabric of some sort. Not saying the latex would be a bad idea since it would come close enough.

>>8949079
Latex isn't naturally that shiny, that's what it looks like with a bunch of polish on it.

Pic related is what it looks like without the polish.
(it's surprisingly hard to find pictures of unpolished latex for some reason... I guess because everybody likes the shine so they never post pictures before it's shined up)

>>8949080
You can't sew latex, it has to be glued. If you try, the holes punched by the needle will cause it to rip. You could get matching gloves from just about anywhere. It would be kind of a pain to make your own, but it is possible. For info about gluing latex, google it, or see this link:
http://www.eurocatsuits.com/how-to-glue-latex.php/?la=en

>>8949113
Yeah, maybe.
It would be expensive, and could easily get sweaty and uncomfortable if the weather is warm, but you'd need something very soft and stretchy to get a perfect fit like in the show, and it's probably the most similar looking material that's easily available.

>>8949750
/d/'s Latex thread here.
Two things:
1. You can get latex catsuits with gloves attached.
2. Neck-entry suits are also an option. Black ones are more common so you could do pic related maybe

Can someone post GOOD Cat Noir cosplay?

>>8951246
It doesn't exist yet. So far it's all crossplay fakebois who aren't convincing in the slightest.

>>8951345

you cant pull off a skin tight bodysuit and look like a teenage guy with a female body

>>8951364
different person, tbf the show doesn't appeal to me in the slightest, but I'm half tempted to do it because I like latex and have the frame for it

>>8951246
I think Kimpa is pretty amazing.

>>8951530

>>8951345
Do you ever see a character and think "Wow, this character was designed to have porn made of them?" That's how I feel whenever I see Chat. Sadly no real 3DPD guys do him justice.

>>8951552
It's French what do you expect?

>>8951552
Yes. Especially in the episode with his doppelganger. I think this is part of the reason why Nick stopped airing it on regular tv. Chat is too lewd.

>>8951555
Hivemind.

Guys this person looks like she's MAYBE 15.

>>8951671
Then why the fuck is she posting on 4chan?

>>8951677
She didn't, anon saw her at a con and took the pic and uploaded it dipshit

>>8951671>>8951677
>>8951681

she's like 20 something , she was @ an 18+ con last weekend.
I don't know her personally enough for her age, but she's a lot older than she looks.

>>8951535
It's not perfect but I'm glad they went for all the canon accurate seams instead of just gluing a bell onto a black catsuit and calling it a day.

>>8947028
This. OP your suit looking way better then this one. Shit looks like it's covered in school glue. Not a good material choice IMO.

>>8949113
>those small patterns
Such patterns exist, pic related. The patterning is really small so I guess they should be able to make larger red squares separated by white or silver lines, perhaps even a hexagonal pattern.

They seem to be in the same country as Andromeda Latex, coincidence?

>>8952330
What's the best fabric in your opinion? (like seriously asking this not trying to sound snobbish)
I chose the fabric I did since I felt it had the same shine in the right places in comparison to the fully rendered images they have and it has the hexagon pattern although they are small hexagons.
I do sometimes feel like making a suit out of Yaya's 4 way stretch pleather since I've seen some nice looking ones made from it but I don't feel like it's very accurate.

(BTW also the anon in picture as well as the one that told OP not to worry)

I do sometimes feel like making a suit out of Yaya's 4 way stretch pleather since I've seen some nice looking suits made from it but I don't feel like it's very accurate. I'm not sure since I made my suit back when the show just aired so I was going off of image related more.

(BTW Im the anon in picture as well as the one that told OP not to worry)

Kind of reminds me of the plug suits.

>>8952330
I get trying to encourage OP but don't lie to her. The other suit looks much better, with more accurate seam placement and a better fabric choice. Ladybug's suit has shine, have you watched the show?

>>8952883
I really like your fabric choice! Mystique Spandex, right? I'm a bit of a spandex addict.
I'm torn between what you used, this >>8947670 or the Yaya 4 way.
Ladybug's suit has such a bizarre texture. My first though on seeing the hexagons (since those weren't added til later) was internal cos-dread knowing that they would be nearly impossible to find, material wise.

I feel like most of the fabrics I mentioned have their pros/cons:
-Mystique has a pretty close design but seems too shiny and glowy almost?
-The dots >>8947670 are almost... sparky? I'd like to see this in motion to judge better.
-Yaya's doesn't have at all the correct texture (since it has no design at all) but it still looks neat and more professional/heroic than basic spandex.

I've seen metallic foil spandex used too like >>8947850 , which is cool but, again, not quite right.

I feel like there is no way to win so cosplayers are just choosing what they think looks coolest/most aesthetically pleasing/available.

Latex could be an option but doesn't really present anything over the spandexs I've mention and require a more specialized skill set. This pattern >>8952720 is way too large. I don't know enough about latex to know if you can get it custom printed. If so, that could be wonderful. I do have a personal dislike for the way latex seams (are they called that?) look.
I think a couple people have considered getting regular custom printed spandex to get the hexagon designs but those custom print services are always printed (as far as I know) on basic white spandex so they won't have the right shine at all and will be ugly matte and, in my opinion, worse than the plain red spandex since the heavily stretched areas will have a white-ish cast since the fabric is only printed on top.

>>8952943
forgot to mention: I posted Spider-Man to show the luster of the fabric printed spandex (ie, no shine).

>>8947277
Dood, you're late to the fuckin' party. This pic is months old.

>>8944439
Wow, rude.

>>8947850
Their suits are too shiny and too saggy for my taste. They are cute but it's just not flattering.

>>8954598
Go elsewhere if you want a hugbox.

>>8951535
Those contact lenses are so cool. Does anyone know where to get those?

>>8946400
Get a latex suit and black latex to cut the dots out and then glue them on. There's tons of tutorials for that.

>>8954501
spots not stuck on properly, anon pls

>>8951555
FUCK IM SINNING TONIGHT

>>8954796

>>8944266
if you can bring yourself to do it, know the yaya han fabric like at jo anna has a faux carbon fiber hexagon material

>>8954796
You're an embarrassment.

Way to out yourself as a moron bandwagoner using retarded Tumblerina buzzwords.

>>8954796
It's a retarded CGI kids show. Are you 12?

>>8955157
>>8955158
>>8954894

Calm down.

>>8954676
Kimpa is really good at photoshoo so I'm not sure of those are actually her contact lenses but I imagine they would be something like this http://www.uniqso.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=2803&search=Sclera+&page=2

>>8955168
Please leave.

Return to tumblr.

>>8955032
Ooo, what fabric is this?

>>8955194
Looks like spandex with holo dots like pic related. The spots are glued on, so the black fabric is probably the same type.

>>8955190
Im a different anon from the very first person you replied to. Just chill.

>>8955228
More than one person is telling you to go just so you know.

Anyway, why is everyone having a hard on for liquid latex for the masks? It seems way too much work for something that could be done easily with fabric covered foam/thermoplastic.

>>8955240
I'm making one and honestly it isn't that hard or time consuming. I guess it's just because it can have some expression, which is why I chose to make mine like that.

>>8954613
they already did, kek >>8946287

>>8955032
What's with the eyes??

>>8955240
>could be done easily with fabric covered foam/thermoplastic.
Latex is far shinier.

>>8955168

Omg this is too cute

>>8944230
i would beat that ass like an unwanted red headed stepchild, hotdamn i wanna grab those sides.

>>8957453
Oof, that totally unstyled wig...

>>8957473
>>8957313

>>8949071
1) these are expensive as hell
2) easy-access zipper is a nice touch

>>8957453
This is awful.

>>8958019
Needs a better wig.

>>8958682
this is cute, but only because of the angle and filters
i tried looking for nino and alya cosplays to post in this thread but 99% of my findings were selfies and make-up tests. same with chloe cosplays
as for other side character cosplays, they basically don't exist unless you do some real digging

>>8957453
that's a disturbing lack of chin

Why are all Ladybug masks so poorly made/painted? Better yet, why has someone not gotten on making latex masks and selling them? If comic cosplayers can do it why can't these people.

>>8958847
Her wig is actually pretty accurate, I mean what would you prefer?

>>8959186
new market. Why haven't you tapped it yet?

>>8959186
Working on it.

I'm poor at the moment so I don't have the materials for finishing it

>>8957453
This chat is so dissapointing.

>>8946696
This is awful. They just used some crappy mobile app to make their waist smaller, you can tell the crotch isnt fitted properly and is sagging, and the attached gloves are poorly fitted too.

>>8960743
Why is Chat wearing massive wedge boots and Ladybug wearing no shoes at all?

>>8960668
Lol dude I'm the person in picture and I do not use apps at all that is my real body and I'm skinny to the point I'm not happy about it. As for the crotch area I left it an inch away from where it actually should be to avoid accidental camel toe. I rather my torso look odd than be on here for camel toe XD fixed the gloves in round two like I said in my first post. Cool if you don't believe me, the bait is too strong for me not to respond haha.

>>8960789
To even out the height differences.

>>8960789
because he's short.

>>8960668
Lol anon I'm the person in picture and I do not use apps at all but nice try. That is my real body and I'm skinny to the point I'm not happy about it. As for the crotch area I left it an inch away from where it actually should be to avoid accidental camel toe. I rather my torso look odd than be on here for camel toe XD fixed the gloves in round two like I said in my first post. Cool if you don't believe me, the bait was too strong for me not to respond haha.

>>8960823
>>8960825
I'm aware. It looks bad tho.

>>8958848

>>8960826
I think you can use pantiliners to help prevent cameltoe. Provides a more sturdy shape and less of an outline.

So, to clarify, you're still posting selfies from version 1 and don't have the updated version 2 posted? Looking forward to seeing the changes you've made.

>>8960865
Thank You! God I've been asking a lot of people and no one has given me a good recommendation to prevent that. People keep telling me to get some stock paper fold it, and put it right there and I'm like "uh, no"

Yah no photos of version 2. I only wear cosplays at cons so won't see it until fanime.

>>8960853
eeh, most of this is still super cute, but that rose needs to up her construction game by at least 50%. Mostly by hemming and ironing.
why do people not hem straight edges at least. it looks so last-minute newb. like if you're gonna learn to sew at least learn to actually complete a garment.

also that juleka needs to wear way more eye makeup on the outer corner to draw her eye out and away from her nose

>>8960853
That Alya is awesome

>>8960868
Different anon, but why are you so adverse to using cardstock to avoid camel toe? Your unitard looks horribly misshapen with all that extra fabric in the crotch.
Please fix it, every time I see your pics I think of pic related.

I'm pretty sure there are other things you could use, like a small piece of craft foam or plastic.
Considering the magic resources available via google.com I'm sure you could find something to use down rather than continuing to look deformed.

>>8960826
Agreed with the other anon, the extra fabric makes you look nauseatingly misshapen. It's a decent suit, but it is absolutely not flattering for you.

>>8960916
>>8960924
Okay will totally make sure the second suit addresses that problem. I agree it looks odd but didn't know what to do. Against card stock because of how uncomfortable it is and it really stuck out on my silhouette. Craft foam is a great idea though!

I really spent a very long time researching on Google and asking cosplay.com but no one had a good solution other than cardstock or layering a bunch of clothes under your suit. Probably just not searching for the right thing. (asked a bunch of harley quinns)

>>8960971
Somene different, but I hope the anon's know that super skinny/boney bodies can't really be made to change. Especially in skin tight outfits. Your pelvic area and hips are going to look that way with or without card stock. I personally think it looks fine, if not just make it a little highter and I guess wear a leotard if you are really concerned, but overall this really is fantastic despite the extra fabric.

Can I ask why the wig is black and not dark blue though?

>>8960978
It's a dark blue arda chibi I believe they blend black and blue fibers!

And thanks anon. Yah I actually do have bone start provide that look odd to others so that could also be the reason why it looks odd. Thanks for the suggestions too

>>8960978

And thanks anon. Yah I actually do have bone start provide that look odd to others so that could also be the reason why it looks odd. Thanks for the suggestions too. You can see the a truer color in >>8945505

>>8960987
I didn't realize that was you too! Yeah, the wig does look blue. Sorry about that. Indoor lighting can always be the worst. My mother is very, very skin as well, so she sort of has the same structure as you and there isn't much she can do about it. She eats and eats, but nothing changes. You look great with or without the extra fabric, but in the end its your choice to change it or not, but there are so many things you can do as far as posing goes so that it isn't noticeable and also comfortable for you throughout the convention so you don't have the change it.

>>8960978
We know pelvic bones protrude in stretch wear, that isn't the issue. The problem is how low the crotch in her suit is because she is too worried about camel toe. It throws off all of her proportions and makes the silhouette of her entire figure look freakish and unsettling.

Also, I'm spandex anon from earlier in the thread >>8952943 . I do a lot of superhero suits and generally haven't had an issue with camel toe unless the front of the suit as a vertical middle seam running from collar to vag (which is doesn't look like yours has).

>>8960996
>apologizing for your own unnecessary nitpick.
That was painful to read. She looks accurate to the character you are trying way too hard seagulls.

>>8960888
Agree, she looks really good.

>>8960853
love this Alya's wig

>>8960826
>>8945505
Anon you look very cute, would love finished pics!

>>8961000
If you have the correct seams it works and has no camel toe.
Or you can use plastic bottles cut to the shape of a mari paid and stick it there because it's smooth. If you bought your suit then your kinda screwed but NY friends make tons of body suits and never have camel toe issues.

Their stuff is generally skin ass tight too so I mean it's kinda a non issue if you know how to make the suit with the correct seam

>>8943994
Does anyone have ideas for making the claw part of Chat Noirs gloves? I was thinking something like sewing and gluing with a fake nail inside but I'm not sure how I should go around it

>>8961572
You could make little finger caps out of a non stretch material and glue the fake nails to those and then glue the whole thing to the inside of the glove.

>>8944473
Also she was entering the competition that day claiming she made everything herself. The brand of the bodysuit was plastered over her ass

>>8951535
wtf is going on at the crotch with the seams?

>>8958682
I think Adrien and Marinette should be switched. Otherwise good cosplay.

>>8961572
I glued craft foam inside some clawed gloves I made (after sewing the glove, before turning it) and it looks pretty good. You could use styrene or something similar for a sharper point.

>>8961964
>>8963195
Thanks for the suggestions! I'll try and figure something out

>>8961991
Wtf is with this thread and crotch seams?
More of the best.

>>8944453
great craftsmanship anon! Really impressed, I don't think I'd spend the amount of time you're using on just the yoyo, but your cosplay will probs come together better

>>8963195
This is exactly what I did too, it works really well!

>>8963404
Best mask I've seen so far.

>>8951375
don't cosplay it just because it's trendy if you don't even like the show lol

>>8958019
cute & nicely done! really awkward photo though

>>8959223
Something less shiny and stiff would be nice. It looks like it could be used to stab someone. Aside from that the cosplay is really good.

>>8946287
This response is so cringey.

>>8955032
>>8963404
I really like her.

>tfw you dont even like the show but fell in love with Chat

>>8963787
Your reading comprehension is on par.
Not because it's trendy, but because of latex senpai

>>8966474
Chat is perfection.

>>8946696
I like the shine of the suit but the spots are a wrong scale and the the crotch is too low.

>>8944466
>Know what'd be a a miracle? Getting Nickelodeon USA to fucking finally air the rest of the episodes.


I KNOW man. They do this shit each and every time a show that isn't SpongeBob gets popular.

They did it with Avatar: TLAB, Korra, Danny Phantom. I've said as much on my twitter and tagged Nickelodeon so that they know I am onto their little game of whatever the fuck they are doing.

I am just watching the sub in French and Korean. I like the english dub but if they want to play games on when they air it then I am out. When something is popular you keep that shit on the air in multiple timeslots. You DO NOT take it off the air for weeks at a time, then air reruns, then not announce new eps, then show them in Canada first, then stop airing them again.

Fuck that.

I played along for ATLA and Korra, I'm not bothering this time. They clearly don't care if I watch, pirate it, or buy it on itunes.

I'm not sure how many of these cosplayers are making their suits vs. buying them from somewhere, but I make those gloves out of tights on commission (the kind Homestuck/SU cosplayers use to avoid getting bodypaint everywhere, bless my customers' souls), and one of the most important parts is to cut a diamond-shaped dart going from the lower palm to about halfway up the forearm, widest where the wrist is thinnest. this prevents that weird saggy bunching effect when you bend your hand forward (for example, to pose with a yoyo). It's such a simple thing but it makes a huge difference.

>>8968129

That stops the bunchy you say?

Which way is the stretch supposed to go? Side to side?

>>8951375
>half tempted to do it because I like latex and have the frame for it
Femanon?

There are many YouTube videos coming up with how to make the ladybug outfit, yet all star from Lycra. There is still room for a first with latex.

>>8973584
nah, i'd be doing cat

>>8944453
Dropping in to say that I got my compact done! I just need to seal it and cut the loose ends off the string and figure out what I want to put on the inside of the mirror piece but I'm pretty happy with it!

>>8976068
Nice.

Strange that they haven't started selling Ladybug stuff yet. Normally toy companies are quick to move in but other than the generic Chinese copyists selling ladybug outfits I haven't seen much else. Yo-yos and compacts would probably be easily industrialized. Come to think of it it is quite a while since last yo-yo craze did the rounds.

>>8976230
I've been thinking the same. I'm hoping so see some ladybugs start stepping up in cosplay competitions with yoyos at least. There's lots of neat tricks you can do with them and I think it would be really cool to see someone perform as Ladybug.

>>8976230
>>8976233
Also, maybe the reason they haven't jumped at making her yoyo/compact yet is because if they do, kids might hit eachother/their parents/animals with it trying to replicate how Ladybug fights in the show. I think I saw they made a compact, but I didn't see if it had a string attached to it or not.

>>8947411
this

anyone got a free catsuit pattern?

>>8961572
Here's a tutorial on how to make the nails if you're still wondering

http://carambolag.tumblr.com/post/138558010230/hi-everyone-i-got-many-questions-about-the

>>8976068
That looks really good, but I'm gonna nit pick a little. You should have either sanded it or used filler primer to get rid of the wood grain and make it smooth all around. But really I'm just being nit picky.

>>8977346

>>8976237
A lot of merchandising is in the pipeline: https://youtu.be/Nf7GclA3cR4

Seems the show has been so successful that they are planning a live action movie which is even more assured to bring in tons of merchandise: https://youtu.be/mZo9xoHsHW0

I hadn't thought of children putting on their ladybug pajamas and trying to use their ladybug yo-yo to swing themselves out of the bedroom window and across the street. A question of "kids, these days", right?

>>8977388
Those toys look ok, but I'll reserve judgement until they're out. Them plushies look like shit.

their 'kid friendly' voices and expressions are so jarring I want to punch that lady.
>comic book cover
What? Want.
>Photo realistic animation
Lol no.

>>8977388
>Toys and plushes
Wow they all look shitty. Who made these...Almost everything in that video looked like crap.

Looking for honest opinions about this ladybug hiphop cosplay.

>>8978087
Judging from the length of her tails, this was the 2d one? Not sure if Felix would fit into that world but...in a random spinoff, I could see Mari and Adrien doing it.

On a standalone I think the outfits are kinda cute. Its nice that they kept the masks and specific traits for each character like chat's paws

>>8977388
>>8978070
>>8978086
Honestly they should have tried to replica Marinette's version of the superheroes/villains plushies from ep 18 as they would have at least looked more pleasing as well as functioned better as toys

>>8978087
It's kind of off putting because it's so attention whorey; it seems like the girl is trying to milk as much attention from the series as possible

>>8977348
>how2tuck ;_;

>>8978087

Every time I see these I'm just baffled. WHY? It's not like this series is overdone cosplay wise and not like every canon variation has been cosplayed and cosplayed well. What's the point of doing AU cosplay? Except to get more likes/notes/reblogs with the least amount of effort.

>>8978143
>>8978361
My thoughts exactly.
Seriously, what was the point?

>>8977348
dat wig tho

>>8978407
people like the au, so they cosplay from it?
Not everyone is into cosplay for just the attention. Maybe they like to dance so they went with the dance au

>>8978407
I follow that cosplayer, she's very sweet and just really loves ML. Also, she is a dancer, so she probably thought the AU thing was a perfect fit for her.

Like other anon said, not everybody is thinking 'gotta do wacky AUs and be the first for attention!!!'. Damn you guys are a salty bunch

>>8978361
I'm doing the AU but it's just because I really enjoy it. With the amount if popularity that AU has gained I doubt anyone is doing it to gain attention.

>>8976068
>figure out what I want to put on the inside of the mirror piece but I'm pretty happy with it!


Put different things in it! Like use a release tape or sticky tac or any kinda film that can have a temporary hold.

Cat Noir
Eiffle Tower
Alya pointing her camera at you
Adrian looking dreamy

>>8978517
Hes probably cosplaying felix, not Chat.

>>8978804
Forever RIP Felix.
Too perfect for this world.

>>8978804
He actually based the hair off of Felix and then the suit off of Adrien, why? I have no idea, it seems a bit ridiculous honestly.
I'm really happy they ended up making Chat's hair short because the long hair looks atrocious

>>8977348
looks like he tried so hard to reach super saiyan level three that he ended up in a different tv show.

How is progress? Ladybug stays in spandex so far while the Cat is already in leather. https://youtu.be/Rym91Ci2V6E

Latex when? https://youtu.be/W5zsAP3kGmc

>>8978087
This is a popular AU in the fandom (on tumblr)-which is hiphop or streetdancing AU.

>>8968129
There's not much you can do, I think adding spirit gum to the sides though and tacking it to the skin might work

>>8976068
What did you make this out of omg it's so good.

>>8977348
This is just gross.

I really want to do a sort of group for this. Really wanting to do Jeanne d'Arc, but I feel like I'd be out of place. And probably would be better to have a Ladybug with me instead of being solo.

>>8976068
>>8985777
I'd like to know this too anon!

>>8978407
ya ever hear of a thing called fun?

Spotted a Chat Noir cosplayer at the calgary comic expo today and she looked adorable :}

>>8987617
> she
>:}
Newfag selfposter or blind person spotted. That unstyled wig and her unbound pointy tits are just shameful. Stop before you embarrass yourself more. If you're going to try and cosplay a twinky character, at least try and manage to pass instead of wearing no makeup and looking like a tub of lard. Usually I would call vendetta, but Ladybug attracts so many retards here.

>>8985777
It just looks like wood, which I wouldn't recommend taking inspiration from.

So the Cat has weird effects also on girls?
And that includes bitterness like >>8987655 and >>8988116

Awesome thread!!

I hope I can contribute soon, waiting for my pics of last weekend. I finally received my Chat Noir cosplay on saturday.

I had the honor to hold a ladybug panel with Mr Astruc and did it cosplaying Chat. I was rather nervous though.

I'm curious about seeing pictures from it. He's definitely an awesome guy, though! Very easy going, funny but also knows exactly what he likes and values. Good guy!

>>8985777
>>8987535
It's wood! Turned on a lathe.

>>8989266
>I had the honor to hold a ladybug panel with Mr Astruc
He has had a few pictures on his Twitter feed the last few days, you in any of those? Popularity for cosplaying seems to be soaring.

>>8946287
no offense but what the fuck is wrong with all of you lol

>>8992298
As far as I can see I'm only somewhere in the background.

There were a lot of Ladybug cosplayers though, which I aboslutely loved!

I don't have any usefull pictures so far, only a few selfies. Here is one of my stage Ladybug and I did with Thomas. Hope I can do a proper shooting soon.

>>8987610
couldnt find the lolita version :/

>>8946696
Saved for fapping.

Any Ladybug cosplayers gonna join AX?

>>8984462
But why is there a hip hop AU?

>>8989266
what was the panel about?

>>8993299
Thomas Astruc joined and got asked questions that had been colelcted online before.

Later on questions by the audience were asked and there was a group foto at the end. Thomas is quite charismatic, so it was a lot of fun!

>2k notes for those uneven, misplaced dots and matte fabric.

>>8993746
she didn't even try with those dots

>>8993746
well she's tumblr famous and very cute so it's not really surprising or worth being salty over lol

isn't there more?

>>8993746
She's beautiful. You'll need a lot of bread for that much jelly.

>>8996003
No one said anything about how she looks, just that her costume was less good than it easily could've been. Her mask and makeup combination is nice but there's no reason her dots should be all over the place. It takes 2 seconds to find references for that.

>>8987617
>>8989107

pls leave and stay leave, summerfags

>>8977348
Is this person selling prints of their cosplay because I swear i saw someone selling prints of this costume the other day...

>>8996676
is this new boner robin?

cgl I need your advice. Alya is my favourite character (after Chat and Ladybug ofc) and I'd like to cosplay as her and as Lady WiFi.

But my skin colour is closer to Marinette's than Alya's.

I've always been a stickler for accuracy, should I use a foundation a few shades darker to look a little more tanned? Or am I going to get hate for blackface?

>>8999040
Just wear a good wig and make sure your outfit is well constructed.

>>8999040
I would try a few shades to see what comes out more natural. I know if you get makeup at like Target, as long as most of the product hasn't been used you can return it or swap it for another shade, so you aren't out money for getting the wrong shade. Good luck!

>>8999040
Just get a spray tan, doing darker shade foundation can be seen as black face to the easily offended bitch babies.
Also have costume on point and a great wig.

Are there actually any male Chat Noir cosplayers out there?

>>9000082
>>8987617

>>8944439
How is that fat? What size are you?

>>9000082
I'm going to be making him for a con in the fall.

>>9000085
that's not a male
but thanks for trying

>>9000164
pics please :3

>>9000246
you're pretty dense, also
> :3
> Ladybug attracts so many retards here

>>9000630
Nah, girls trying to be guys is just not my cup of tea. That's all.

>>9001307
Seriously?

The Internet: where guys can turn out to be women and where girls can turn out to be the Feds. New here? If so: welcome.

>>9000246
I have to make the cosplay first.

>>8999040
Don't worry too much about skin color. It's really easy to get hate for that. Just have an on point wig and costume otherwise you'll get a world of nitpicks.

>>8993299
Whatever tumblr likes and whatever popular tumblr artist gets the AU going, honestly. Probably because the show uses a lot of acrobatic type moves and somehow that got to hiphop?

So, will there be a sea of this at the summer's cons?

>>9005284
Shit ones? Probably.

>>8999040
Do not /ever/ darken your skin. That is horrible and legit uncool. Nobody cares if you are white just do itm. It's a good way to upset people if you spray tan. Do not do it.

How do you hide camel toe?

>>9005907
Learn to sew a leotard to that it isn't an issue?

>>9005522
Sure is /tumblr/ in here.

>>9005522
Yeah anon! It's so fucking unkawaii. Why not just make a law about it and enslave all white people so they know how it feels to be a modern blackie?
Why, if anyone goes around accepting and appreciating blacks and black fictional characters then we should lynch them! Tar and feather ftw!

>>9005284
Considering Chinese companies are already selling Ladybug outfits I'd say chances are good, yes. I really wonder why the Ladybug group hasn't ramped up their merchandising already to keep Chinese copy companies out. Instead we see some seriously creepy chastity belts sketched out.

>>9007070
I'm really confused as to why Miraculous' merchandise isn't out. Even in interviews with creators it has been mentioned that the fanbase is begging to throw money at merch to support the show. Lbr what with everyone watching the french dub in their native language subs this is how they can make a lot of money.

You'd think Toei would have been all over that shit with their experience with Sailor Moon and Precure... and Yu-Gi-Oh and Digimon etc etc etc.

>>9008153
A massive Merch release will happen in the fall. Right now most of the Merch is in Korea.

He, would it be weird to do sabrina in noirs cotume like pic related?
I'd probably find a chloe as well. I have a nose like hers and I am a natural ginger so I though it would be appropriate.

>>9005907
Not really a problem ... as long as you remember the mask.

>>9008887
There's nothing wrong with it persay but I think if you use your natural hair instead of a wig a lot of people might immediately assume you're just a cosplayer who's too lazy to buy a wig until it snaps into their head that you're sabrina.

>>9009666
Nah I'd wear a wig, my hair is longer than hers and is differently textured. I thought my face was the same because of that is what I was saying

>>8943994
why are cosplayers so disgusting? this bitch literally has her underwear just casually thrown about the living space.

you must be real popular with your roomates

>>9009715

Do it then. Find a Chloe though. That would be really fun to see you with others.

>>9008153
>>9008666


I wonder if any company will ever latch on to some of their fanbase being adults.
Like oh yeah we have Ladybug backpacks, pencil cases and cheap little masks, shirts for 10 yr olds.

There should also be a run for Cat Noir wallets, a mature looking purse design with a subtle pattern on it, a couple of nicely designed bowler shirts and blouses.

20 yrs after the fact or ignoring your over 20 audience altogether is so very de rigueur.
That comparably subtle Sailor Moon purse Hot Topic put out last month sold the fuck out. They can toss a few crumbs to people over 10. They'd make that money back.

>>9009929
I think they are wary of acknowledging an older audience because of the Brony fiasco. At first Bronies were lauded as breaking norms for liking a feminine kids show, but then when kids and parents went online to find content, they found mountains of MLP porn. Bronies got defensive and MLP hasn't really recovered.

>>9009932

Oooo very good point. I had not thought of that.
In that case keep it kiddos only.

It's not fair that little kids have to deal with people doing that to a show for them.

I'll just make my own stuff.

Have some Mari wig.

Color is nice, ponytails are not.

>>9010038
Well it's not like there's no hope for some more mature merchandise. The show was originally conceived to cater to teens and young adults. They only switched it to kid demographic because of network pressure.

I just think that they want to be careful about how they include older fans to avoid mistakes of other shows. The floods of Sailor Moon stuff marketed towards 20 somethings and up has been highly successful. So it may take some time for them to figure everything out.

>>9010065
But honestly, kids aren't stupid. That sailor moon bag could be used by a kid or an adult and it'd be cute either way. I don't know why companies need to make everything fucking hideously tacky and hot pink for 'tha keeds!'

>>9009932
it's sad.
I would've considered watching it, because it's so cute and all...
It's actually not half bad...
but holy shit the neckbeards couldn't hold in their dicks for once.

>>9010069
Because keeds will whine to their parents about how much they want it regardless if it's shit most of the time.

Inb4 4783928364 anons saying, "When I was a kid, I had an eye for quality. No pleb toys for me."

Mass market kid shit is bottom of the barrel because there is no incentive to have a smaller profit margin for a better quality product when your average urchin don't care.

Hopes they get adult merch soon

Man, I want to stick it in Chat Noir. No homo

>>9005522
> Getting a fake tan is blackface.
Uh..no anon. Now if they bought some dollar store foundation and applied to their face it'd be a bit off but white people getting tans and fake tans is so goddamn normal I don't know why it would be offensive. Stop h8ing.

Had to finish Nathanael really quickly before a meet happened, so this is incomplete (the jacket is the wrong colour, etc.) but it's a start I guess.

>>8949113
>those small patterns
You can get patterned spandex now and cut it to your size.

Autosage. New thread?
