This is an insane personal annoyance but Harley Quinn cosplayers that have too many diamonds. It seems like a ridiculously simple issue but Harley has a 3 diamond pattern. Most store-bought shit has all 4 diamonds, so those always stand out, but some fans make their own stuff and still add 4 diamonds instead of the three.

Also, people wearing bodices for costumes that don't have bodices.

People copying Ormeli's design for Elizabeth from Bioshock Infinite instead of just following the in-game model. The in-game model is easier and more accurate, and Irrational chose Ormeli because she's adorable and looks like Elizabeth, not because her costume was the best. I think you can kind of gauge who played Infinite by who has an accurate costume versus who is just copying Ormeli.
>>6875392
I made a tutorial specifically so fewer people would stop cutting their wigs that way. Maybe I need to post it on Arda's site or something, because nothing bums me out more than hacking up a wig the wrong way and having to buy a new one.
>>6875702
I feel the same way about people who wear corsets on the outside of their bodysuit for things like Black Cat and Scarlet Witch. Neither of their costumes have an eBay corset on top of their costumes. Or when people wear a matching bodice and underwear instead of making or even just buying and painting a bodysuit.

It's dumb and rather petty but I'm getting tired of seeing Asuka (Evangelion) or Rei cosplayers with the hair clips wrong. I mostly see this with Asuka's but I've seen them upside down (small end up) or backwards (small end facing front). Maybe it's because I'm anal retentive, or maybe it's because it's an easy to check, easy to fix mistake but it annoys the hell out of me.

I have a pair of clips that I bought off taobao, and they literally do not go on the head like that. If you try to put it on sideways, they'll slip right off.

this. It wasnt bad really, but after the 76th madoka on the first day, it gets a bit old.

Also, hetalia or whatever it is. The were just wearing a coat and had different national flags. There were tons of them. Big props are no problem if your spacially aware, but most of them were swinging around flag poles left and right. I dont watch it and made the mistake of asking one neck beard hambeast about it. He was wearing a grey wig that he just put on like a hat (hair sticking out from underneath it everywhere), had a russian flag, a teddy bear, and tried to speak with a nasally, high pitched russian accent. He landed in a seat at our table since we had a couple chairs open and tried to talk to us.
>me: so what is that? Some WW2 anime?
(I was genuienly interested since I knew nothing about it and saw alot of flag bearers and wasnt being a douche.)
>Him: NO! IT IS SO MUCH MORE! ITS ABOUT LIFE THROUGH THE AGES AND THE TEARS OF BLAH BLAH
>Me: Alright...So are you a character?
>Him: IM RUSSIA! OH GOD ITS ABOUT SO DEEP WORLD WARS
>Me:SO it is about WW2?
>Him, visibly flusted and flopping on the table: NO YOUR NOT LISTENING.

Luckily he left shortly after for somthing and didnt cling. But again, it seemed like a lazy cop out. I usually dont look down and try to accept any cosplay, but they were just lazily made from what I saw.

I personally didn't have much against Madoka cosplay until a con I went to recently where I saw school-uniform Sayaka's and Madoka's everywhere.
Then I felt bad because I'm cosplaying both of those girls later this year with a friend who's doing Homura :< Not really used to cosplaying overdone stuff, so this will be fun..

>>6876471
Urgh yes this. A former friend of mine will wear his cosplays over a Deadpool suit for every con. That stuff is not funny or original anymore, and imo it never was.

Otherwise, sluttified versions of characters; genderbends or skimpy OC designs.
Also kind of gets old after a while when certain female cosplayers keep cosplaying the same type of over-sexualized characters. They can't seriously expect people to buy the "omg Cammy/Yoko is my favorite character everrrr!!" thing when they do that over and over again. Some variation is nice every now and then. I suppose the last thing is more personal than anything since it gets down to specific cosplayers and not just stuff in general.

This. It clutters up my Facebook feed, and I hate it. I don't care if you like a fandom that I'm not a fan of, but keep it out of anime/gaming/comic cons.

While closet cosplay may still be considered cosplay, in the loosest sense of the term, it's also incredibly lazy, boring, and uninteresting.

I've met cosplayers who get all pissy when their friends get asked for photos because they are wearing an identifiable costume, but the person with the camera asks them to step out of the way because they are in closet cosplay, or stupid fuckwits who think they deserve the same level of adoration and praise for slapping on a shirt and pants.

Scott has a number of specific t-shirts and accessories that a cosplayer would need to get or make to best suit the character. Same goes for Ramona, who is easily identified by her booty shorts, circular bag with a big star on it, and her big fucking hammer.

The characters are distinct, despite their otherwise simple designs. Doesn't meant you can get away with putting on some blue jeans and a t-shirt and just say "Hey, I'm cosplaying Scott Pilgrim!"

A better example might be Luffy, who looks super simple on the surface, but the death is in the detail. A good Luffy cosplay takes the time saved by grabbing a red shirt and some shorts and puts it into making sure all the little accessories and details are right by altering and tweaking those clothes.

I do a group SP cosplay with a bunch of my friends, and 90% of the characters are literally just normal clothes. Lucas Lee is a black t-shirt, jeans, skater shoes (I went the extra mile to tape up a skateboard to look like the movie's), Todd is a grey Punisher shirt and jeans, etc.

I love shows like Doctor who and Sherlock, but cosplay from them just needs to stop. Most of the characters have extremely uninteresting outfits, and unless you actually look like the actor you are going to look like shit. I have seen very few cosplays from popular tumblr series look good.

Also shitty disney cosplays. If you don't have the skills to sew the fucking dress, do something simpler. This girl churns out cosplays like a madwoman, and everything she sews is innacurate and looks like shitand looks rushed, and her wigs are always ratty. I'm sick of having to see her crappy disney cosplay every con I go to.

I also really hate lack of petticoats/hoopskirts with various cosplays. If the dress is a ballgown, it needs either a giant petti or hoopskirt+petti, no exceptions. The rest of the costume can be beautiful, but without the proper undergarments will look like shit

Hey you! Welcome to the thread.

I'm ashamed to admit that I have a friend who thinks he's a really good Solid Snake cosplayer, or rather, among the best, and I don't have the heart to tell him that he is sub-par at most. He really flaunts his cosplay all over his blog and I just sit there thinking, "please stop before you get hurt."

I didn't think of the guys in airsoft gear until you brought it up, but yeah, I'm sick of those too. If that's what the character wears then cool, but I don't know if "generic COD soldier #46" really, you know, counts as a cosplay. At least not in my book.

Ryu. I get it you did karate for 2 months and you were able to cut the sleeves off your gi and buy a long piece of red fabric for a headband. How about some fucking details. I not only bought a brand new gi to do Dan Hibiki but (after dyeing it pink) I trained like fuck in it so it would start to look worn in and so I'd have the muscle to even pull it off. I went from 165 to 180 lbs without putting an ounce of fat just for that fucking costume.

The Devil is indeed in the details and my costume didn't look like shit because I put in the work on myself. Obviously the rest of the costume is kind of a slap-together.

Oh and I had a skilled friend handle my wig completely. I had no clue what I was doing. Still don't.

Hello!

I dunno' man, especially in the case of characters like Solid Snake and Big Boss, you really have to have the face and build as well as the proper camo/sneaking suit/equipment to pull it off. It's one big cohesive look, you know?

Random ill-fitting jungle camo and a few pouches does not a Naked Snake make. :(

As for the few Kaz cosplayers I've seen, the issue always seems to stem from sloppy uniform construction and especially bad wigs.

Exactly! I hate to stomp on his parade, but he looks nothing like Snake. He's not rugged, but lanky and clean shaven. I just...

He doesn't believe in the whole "having the same physical features of the person". Nor do I to an extent: weight, skin color, height, and stuff don't really bother me. But the least he could do is draw a beard. AT LEAST.

Guess I'm not the only person that feels this way!

I, for one, am tired of blatant T&A cosplay. Don't get me wrong I do enjoy my tits and ass; however, when you're cosplaying a character that does have valuable assets but doesn't show them off AND you're flaunting them then you're doing it wrong. Really wrong.

Female/Male versions of the opposite sex. It's just dumb. If you're going to do the character and you are the opposite sex, just try your best. When I get back to the States I plan on cosplaying Chiquita from Jormungand and I'm definitely not a female. She's just too bad ass to pass up!

Overshooping. Definitely tired of seeing overshooped overhyped pics.

Often the shoops are completely over the top and remodel the whole face and it just looks so godawful and I'm sitting here wondering why the HELL they are being praised like that.

For my part, what pisses me off massively (and I'm a fan of the show!) are people who cosplay Castiel from Supernatural *with wings*. What the actual fuck.

WHYYYYY. I can understand if a costume calls for wings and you need them fair enough but when they're not even canon in the first place? Why.
