Crossplay/Crossdress #22: The Positive Vibes Edition

[Anonymous No.10839846]

Last thread archived weeks ago and we've been getting a bunch of crossplay threads since. Normally, I'd approve 200% and say "Let's make that the whole board" even. But too many killjoys and derails make the return of a focused gen inevitable. (This also doubles as "The last three editions were numbered wrong edition") Be excellent to each other, Let's All Love Crossplay

Keep it /cgl/-related! Cosplay or J-fashion like Lolita/Brolita, Aristocrat, Kimono, Nanchatte, etc.!

Never done makeup and I get by fine without it but it could definitely help me. The problem is (like with all crossplay things) not having anyone around to just call and ask for advice. Even if there is...I'd rather not, at the risk of them driving the conversation into unrelated stuff.
>Online tutorials
Of course, yeah. Still, in-person would be way preferable. Not even sure what to try applying yet other than eyeshadow.

Hi all! First timer here. Been crossplaying at cons for a year now.

>>10839873
I would strongly suggest fishing something out of the local facebook marketboards instead as you'll get it cheap but high quality. Look out for anything from Taobao or DokiDokiSSR. Be sure to pay attention to asian to american size conversion!

>>10840891
I would strongly suggest biting the bullet and making friends with a cosplayer who knows their way around makeup like someone working in film & TV makeup. Focus on being friendly and making people feel comfortable enough that they would consider coming to your house or something to teach you makeup. If you can't, start with liquid foundation in your general tone, an application sponge to dab it on, eyeliner, and setting powder, applied in that order. Once you get enough attention you'll have people at your fingertips to as the finer details. Good luck friend.

>>10843448
Smile! Just a little bit of gesture goes a long way into the believably of your crossplay. Acting more docile, learning the dutch smile, and making lots of eye contact help a ton. If you stare directly into the camera for photos you'll instantly be way more photogenic. Practice keeping your legs together when you sit, and covering your rear when you get up and sit down. You don't stop being a girl just because you stop standing.

I am afraid. So, in July, I'm going to my first convention with a couple of friends. I'm AMAB. And, I'm going as Mandy, from Grim Adventures.

I've never done makeup. Or sewing. Or even hair products. And, honestly, I'd need to lose a little weight too, in the next four months. And probably shave my entire body. But I have a good face for trying this. And I think I could make it work.

I don't want to be one of those low effort people with a horrible cosplay. And I don't want this to suck, even though I want to do it. Any ideas what to do? I'm probably gonna lurk on here for the next four months, soaking up tutorials.

Ignore them, there's people on this board that think crossplay = being transgender.
Advice: get a wig, don't use your real hair. What's your sewing experience like? Her outfit is a cloak and a dress made up of either gauze or leather straps. Someone bought a black dress as a base and then wrapped fabric around it to get that look, maybe you could try something like that?

[Anonymous No.10843675]

>>10843642
From my experience, people default to dont ask dont tell when it comes to crossplay since its a can of worms already. Still, if it comes up the best policy is just to be honest and say you like it and be quick to add in that its not a gender or SID thing either (if theyre not trans or excessively liberal. Theyre quick to make it a homo/transphobia thing).

Sugar waxing (homemade)
Any of you recommend this at all? How many days should I do it before a convention, and is it safe to do on facial hair?

[Anonymous No.10843752]

>>10843751
If you wax your face you'll probably end up scratchy and bleeding all over with ingrown hairs, better and safer to just shave on the day. You could test waxing your face but it risks extreme pain.

[Anonymous No.10843753]

Sorry, should have clarified. (It might bot change the answer) but I've had a good handful of laser hair treatments so I don't have much facial hair. Guessing its still a bad idea yeah?

[Anonymous No.10843758]

>>10843753
I personally still wouldn't do it because face skin is much more sensitive than leg skin, you could try pulling them out with a tweezer and seeing how that goes. How and why did you get them laser removed? How expensive was it? I've been thinking about doing it because I hate shaving but if it didn't even remove all of it it doesn't seem worth it.

Oh that's partly due to how few cons I get to, and it seems like it's been less every year too.
For some reasons the feelings towards it have changed over time too. Maybe it was the attention received as a young guy that I'm just less excited by, or that half the attention now is from tranny ally freaks that want to wave support for something I'm not interested in.

Not all that worried about looking so perfect, the makeup skills have gone up and it can cover a lot. However the body isn't Mr skellymode Twink anymore, and it won't be going back to that any time. Don't let age stop you. I've just lost some interest over the years

While perfectly understandable, it's also the ultimate pitfall. Any and every convention will have crossplayers, male as female or female as male. (In many case, that's a good way to find someone who posts here too)
>What is the best way to explain to someone why I'd be dressed as a girl?
Well and truly sincerely? "I wanted to." The less justification, the more respect it garners. Acting in the assumption "I like the way this looks" signals to others that they also agree. (If they're at all worthwhile anyway)

>>10843505
>I would strongly suggest biting the bullet and making friends with a cosplayer who knows their way around makeup
Already got this base covered, and I do hang with a lot of them outside convention settings but it's rarely ever lowkey enough to have enough time for this sort of thing. Knowing what I'd even need is of course the first step, and it looks like you were able to help out there. I assumed foundation would be one of them, so that's a promising start.

foam pads for your hips, literally take a mattress and cut it to shape. plenty of tutorials around for different types so yoj cam choose. just wear two pairs of tights over it, one large size just to hold the pads and one normal size to give you a natural looking figure.

You can usually find high quality ones designed for characters on amazon. With shoes I usually take liberties because unless it's some prominent boots people won't take much notice at shoe detail, and you can find a pair of shoes with flat soles and that can take about half an inch off your shoe wearing height.

For high quality wigs, check out Arda. If you're willing to import from Japan, Maple Wigs are also a solid option.
As for shoes, I would suggest you measure your foot to get an idea of what women's sizes would fit you. Depending on the shape of your feet and how flexible they are, you may need to order up like half a size US, or a few sizes up in EU. If you can go to a thrift store and buy some cheap pairs that'll help you get an idea of what size they should be as well.

nta but if you live in boston call around because only certain places will wax male faces (since sometimes a thick haired beard won't wax right and you end up ripping out skin with it) but there are places that do! depending on how fast your beard grows you'll need to do it a few days before the con. you can also go in for a consultation and they'll have a better idea based on your hair type. hope that helps.

Okay, time to stir the pot...

What is your (and other peoples') obsession with people passing or not on this thread? This is *crossplay* not *crossdress* or *mtf transgander*.

Seriously- if someone looks good in a costume- whether they "pass" or not- isn't that what matters? If they have a slightly heavier brow, or a somewhat wider jawline, and people can peg them as a guy... why do you care? If someone does a good job with the costume and the makeup and they look good in it, but people can tell they're a guy... isn't that beside the point?

Cosplay is about portraying a character. It's about pretending to be a character that you love. Or a character whose style you love. It's about looking good and enjoying yourself. It's about showing off your sewing skills or makeup skills or wig-styling skills. It's about meeting people at cons and getting your picture taken.

It's about whatever part of the hobby you enjoy.

And if for you, it's about "passing"- that's fine. Be obsessed with if you pass or not. But don't make other people feel like they have to pass. There's a lot more to this hobby than passing.

[Anonymous No.10847858]

On a related note, I went to a Touhou cosplay rave and a girl cosplayer was surprised to hear that I was a boy "otokonoko?" so I guess that's a sign I'm doing well despite still being relatively new to this all.

I got mine from taobao and they're silicone filled with cotton which makes them less heavy and easier to wear. I've only worn them a few times but they've held up well. A friend got some off Amazon with cotton as well and they were the same basically so search for those. I can link the taobao ones if you'd like. You want to have your hair in a wig cap when taking them on and off because it pulls at even buzzed hair. And use baby powder to keep from sweating.

skin? yes, definitely. to the point it feels like that I am cheating compared to females.
I had oily skin and had frequent acnes, but now I only get 1 every three weeks or so (maybe even longer), and in doing so, stops further damage to your skin. I mean, if you are diligent on your skincare you probably can achieve the thing too.
Ideally, I still want several pass of laser to fix my skin's texture.
IDK how that works if you skin type is dry.
Also I think it makes makeup last longer because less sebum production.
For Hair? Never noticed any.
Side effects? You literally stop being a coomer and might alter your sexuality. However, you can cum anywhere without a tissue because on later stages you just, cease to ejaculate.

This is a question that keeps coming up in these threads, and the answer is always the same: it depends entirely on the character type you're going for, and your physical features. If you're trying to crossplay like a high schooler, odds are you are out of your depth and won't be able to pull it off effectively. However, there are TONS of cute character types that are easier for "older" crossplayers to pull off - business women, moms, elegant princesses, the sky is the limit! Yes, 32 is a little older than what is typical to be just starting out, but it really doesn't matter as long as you put the work in.

Regular user of makeup here, you both Have pretty deep hooded eyes, which means it can be very difficult to do a wing or for the eyeliner to cover up any eyeshadow you put on your lid. I highly recommend learning to tightline or looking up tips for hooded eye makeup application, it really helped on my journey to learn makeup for my face type. I know cosplaying is different from everyday wear but i still think it will be of use to you two. Best of luck.

OK boomer, lemme 'splain this, because you obviously don't get it.

Back in your day, crossderssing was a societal taboo and the only people who crossdressed were gay drag queens because if society rejects you for being gay, why not have it reject you for crossdressing too?

Nowadays we are much more enlightened and we understand that gender expression and sexuality ARE NOT linked. Just because I enjoy pretending to be one of my favorite female characters does not mean I don't like having sex with women. And it also doesn't preclude me from thinking that men (including myself) are unattractive, gross hairy sweaty beasts.

Any questions?

Casual self-bump, just to say that (aside from being fun), Crossplay really is the only way to go for practical reasons too, since it's much more breathable i.e. how to avoid a heatstroke.

Crossplay is 80% genetics(and modifying face through surgery/mones)and 20% actual makeup/style.

the same applies for cosplay.
The best coatumes/craftsmen tend to be fat and have plain faces at best.

The overwhelming majority of men will simply look offensive while crossplaying, through no fault of their own.

[Anonymous No.10855497]

>>10855486
The makeup used for crossplay is intentionally done to make the crossplayer as cute as possible, and sometimes focusses on that more than actually on passing. What drag is is basically just blackface but for women, it's all about looking ridiculous and flashy and what fags think being feminine is like. Even if the person doing it has good genetics and a pretty face it will always look gross because drag is creepy looking and weird.

newfag here, how does sizing work for buying female cosplay for a guy
im looking at miccostumes and the chart says my bust and hips would be between M and L, but my waist being between L and XL
do i need to buy the biggest one just in case? that seems like it would be for fat women, and the bust would be loose as fuck, especially since i don't have boobs, tho from the user pictures it doesn't seem like the chest area is especially large
which one am i supposed to get, i know it's better to go a bit bigger than smaller

i’ve personally seen vast improvements using contacts and don’t feel as confident and passable without them. it can be a bit of effort to get an appointment scheduled for a prescription, learning how to insert them, and waiting a few weeks for cosplay lenses, but i don’t regret doing so at all. it takes me 1-2 minutes at most inserting them so it’s barely additional effort

i think it actually helps me a lot in particular because i have dark brown eyes. i typically use light brown or gray circle lenses, and it makes my eyes look a lot bigger. the contrast of the iris/pupil seems to contribute to that effect somehow. i’d recommend trying it out if you’re curious

for cosplaying characters that have a certain eye color, if your natural eye color doesn’t match it definitely makes a noticeable difference when you don’t use colored contacts (which it seems you already may know)

you're drawing your bottom liner too close and thick compared to your top. It makes your eyes look smaller. In general I think like other nons said, circle lenses might be nice, but the liner here stands out the most to me. its very tight to your waterline on the bottom, and I think drawing it out a bit and possibly changing the color of the bottom line to something softer would really open up your eyes more. See something like picrel, where the liner is drawn out a bit more and tapers at the bottom. Not saying you need to go full on glittery eyeshadow like this person, but the idea gets across here. You don't want to draw too far into the eye, 1/3 at most is a good rule of thumb.

Foundation is quite simple to start out with, finding what tone suits you and getting a feel for what your canvas looks like before applying anything. Getting the foundation right makes everything else fall into place simpler and more effortless.

As for the brows, may take a little more time, but depends on how you want to treat them - some take them all off or reshape them. Honestly, I believe everyone no matter the background benefits from a clean-up/reshape. Really good looked after brows go a long way too

Don't fucking enter the women's room if you're biologically male no matter what you pervert. And this isn't about just women's safety, if another guy crossdressing creeps people out that's going to reflect on all of us who do it.

I don't know who that is but it sounds like a name they use in pornography. Even if trannies pass it's going to make people mad regardless, I don't understand why they're so entitled. If they don't want to change in the men's they can use a disabled toilet. Most trannies don't even pass anyway, and they are going to be associated with men who crossdress/do cosplay by a lot of people.

Then you just won't improve for yourself - when people say don't compare yourself with others, it's true; you do your best with the hand you've been dealt. I don't pass at all, doesn't stop me. As for

Is surgery not expensive and painful?

[Anonymous No.10861321]

>>10861295
You don't feel a thing, outside of the initial pain when they inject you with local anesthesia.

expensive? I mean, if you live in new york/california then yes the local surgeons will cost crazy amounts but you shouldn't be living there unless you make 150k a year anyway.
It's cheap as shit for europeans(go to poland/czech) and most US states (can also go to mexico)

This is not /tttt/. If you're getting surgery to crossplay better that's very unhealthy. I wonder what your parents think and I'm not trying to say that in a condescending way. At least if you're trans they might understand.

the ravages of capitalism have ruined mens' body image so much that they don't even believe they can be cute femboy without changing their body through extreme measures.
if you really want to, do workouts or shit to accent features. A lot of that definition just comes from clothes and makeup anyways. Your face can be covered with a mask, thank god for covid now it's not even obvious because everyone wears masks. It's amazing watching the fear in straigh mens' eyes when i go to the urinal

Yes, this is in general a help thread. That said, if you're suffering from body image problems or think that you need surgery to wear a skirt, this is not the place to come for that type of help. It's also not a place to spread negative concepts like "you can't crossplay unless..."- we are a crossplay positive thread.

however i think it's only gotten this bad recently because of the internet, most hooligans start off young and all that neo-nazi imagery is fine on the field but you can't be exposed to it 24/7. I love some fucking good old fashioned hooliganism don't get me wrong. also it was carneval and NOBODY ELSE WAS IN COSTUME just me and my friend and nobody even knew it was carneval i hate my city why did we stop having fun.

different times, now everyone wants to fight for something, it's pretty normalized at this point.
Thing is about fitting in is that you put the effort in with no guarantee of a return, especially the kind that you want, so all comes down to what you want. I've been doing this biz for well over a decade at this point and rather be sad doing this then trying to fit in and get jack shit

I think the anger is making people have less fun. seriously i and my friend were the only people in costume and my brother told me the literal carneval city didn't even organitze any party or anything. I don't like cons, can't get shitfaced on them, and i feel so discriminated because i want to party in costume at this point it feels like the world is trying to personally hurt me.

on the topic i was thinking of doing La malintzin, Cortez' Nahuatl wife and maybe i convince more people to also dress up for carneval so we can have a band of aztecs and conquistadors. for next year and i need to figure out how to pull it off without showing both too much skin, but being too covered so you can't even see that i'm wearing pads. I was thinking the skirt, maybe slightly shorter, and a short enough poncho to see my waist. I'm gonna have to shave my legs in that case tho, and idk if i really have to shave my arms all the way but idk how would i pull this off best. It gets really cold and i was thinking about just wearing some black skintight shirt and leggings so i don't totally freeze.
I found macaw feathers by the box for fucking cheap i thought they were expensive so i'm gonna go all out on the kitchyness. Main problem is most textile shops in my city are closed, google fucking sucks ass when it comes to finding new ones, and the one i frequented enough to get lower prices is literally gone like i don't even know where exactly it was it just stopped existing or some shit and someone immediately got the location. I was also thinking of painting like aztec shit on the poncho like human sacrifices and the gods and myths, mostly to flex how much i know on the topic. also idk if i should wear sandals, it gets to the negatives at carneval time, i was thinking i'll just wear moon boots again but i'll cover them so they look like some weird indian snowshoes. Also need to figure out how nahuatl women even acted, i always make an entire character for a costume so i can just pass as the costume, people look when it like someone is just out of context confused on the street like i came in from another world.
