Let's discuss:
> Are there any DR / SDR2 cosplays you're working on?
> What are some cosplays you'd like to see more of?

Me, I'm going to cosplay as Naegi at... some point. I don't have a group to do cosplays with though so. But I've got ideas. And, I want to see some well done humanized Monobear cosplays. Doesn't seem like anyone's been satisfied with any of them so far, so it'd be interesting to see what would count as a good Monobear.

Currently working on a monobear gijinka,
its definitely going to be a challenge
but I have a few ideas that will hopefully come together nicely.

Hoping to see some nice Leons and Oowadas
maybe some cute genderbents?

Which costume do you think is easier, Mukuro as Junko or Junko herself?

>> No.7183772

>>7183764
It's the exact same costume minus freckles. Do you feel like adding bra, hairclips, and maybe a crown?

>> No.7183787

>>7183764
It's easier to do Junko's tie unless you order custom fabric for the pattern on Mukuro's. On the other hand, Junko has the extra bow, choker, and red bra details that Mukuro doesn't. So it's basically the same amount of effort, and I think it just depends on which of those things you'd rather deal with.

Working on a Chihiro cosplay for next month, but I'm nervous because I wasn't able to get skirt fabric in the right color-- my stuff's more chocolate brown than his more desaturated brown, any fabric I found in the right color wasn't the right weight for it.
There are a lot of small details like that that'll be a bit off in color but the skirt is my biggest worry at the moment, I don't have the time or money to get new fabric before the con either.

Seriously all of the sudden this threads have flooded with vendettas, just get over it and move on, and what i can see is that most of these girls are the same from other threads, geez, Some girls don't even look half-bad. Some little touches here and there, but they don't look THAT bad.

Anyways, I'm working on a Chihiro and Mukuro cosplay and I was thinking of using a petticoat for that poofyness on Chihiros skirt and might even make some bloomers since cannon-wise he wears some cute little bloomers.
I was also going to ask where to get a good vest for Mukuro? Maybe a second-hand shop?

There's a difference between a vendetta where the person makes personal attacks or unnecessary critique almost every time someone is posted, and someone who quietly posts someone's photos repeatedly hoping they'll get flamed.

As someone who cosplays Naegi and is currently revamping their cosplay, one off of ebay or taobao like would be your best bet. 4chan isn't allowing for me to post my links, but look up "makoto naegi wig" and they're in the first five results anyway. Anyway, I just find the wigs from Arda or Matchwigs to have really gross colors in lighter brown. However, if you're interested in dying one, that changes the playing field entirely.

I'm about to start re-doing and fixing some things on my Sonia cosplay and I'm considering re-styling my wig too.. It's pretty long and completely straight and I was thinking about waving it a bit? I've seen people curling their Sonia wigs and such and mine would probably look a lot better if it wasn't just straight?

Do you have any recommendations regarding the details on her kneesocks? Should I just paint them on?

As for the symbol on her bow and the badge on her dress, I can't seem to find good refs. If anyone has them, could you please share?

I like their peach blonde too but a friend and I are making matching wigs for Junkuro and Junko and we aren't sure if we should buy from ec which would probably end up being three wigs each and hella expensive or buying wigs meant for junko from ebay which would end up being two wigs each at most and probably cheaper? Either way its going to take a lot of styling and we're fine with that as Celes and Ibuki cosplayers lmao I'm just wary of spending 100 dollars on a Junko wig which is a miiiiighty possibility if we buy from ec.

Someone in one of the past DR threads suggested cartridge pleats instead of box pleats for Chihiro, and I'm tempted to go with this but I'm not 100% sure about it. I need to make up my mind before I go and buy fabric though since I need different amounts for box pleats compared to cartridge pleats.
(They also suggested organ pleats but I don't like the look of those as much?)

I've used organ pleats on a cloak before, and they would be quite good for getting the big skirt rolls that Chihiro has. If you use cartridge pleats, you run the risk of them being too deep and looking like gathers, or too shallow and lacking the fullness of the skirt. I'd say go for a width somewhere inbetween the two, a medium-heavy fabric and a petticoat to get the right shape.

I'd suggest foamcore or something? The ones you have just look kind of... boring, really. And the bangs are off, too. You look kind of like a little 1990s Britney Spears music video schoolgirl stuck in a Saionji costume, to be honest, but fixing the wig should fix that. Do you have a friend who's good with wigs? Because both of these leave something to be desired... I don't mean to discourage you but fix those wigs girl!
Also may I suggest cleaning up your Fukawa collar? It looks a bit sloppy from what I see in this photo. I can see the tie where I really shuldnt be able to see it.
Tl; dr: fix the bangs on Saionji and add some volume to the pigtails. I don't know if wefting will cut it? And definitely definitely wear tour obi higher up next time. Its a bit sad nobody told you to fix it (and a bit ironic, pfft) and work on Fukawa too! You have a good face for her and I'm glad you're redoing the wig.

Chihiros jacket looks badly fitted over the chest and they need to iron the lumpy front seams before taking photos in it.
Celes has the fringe wrong and their drills just look sad
Mukuro is okay, not great but okay
That Togami makes me sad, for a start his wig looks ginger, could be an unfortunate buying accident but also shouldn't be parted in the middle and the tie... he just didn't even try did he?
Asahina needs to fix the sides of their wig but I like her shoes
Junko also needs a tartan skirt and smooth her wig, it should be poofy not frizzy.
Kirigiri has the tie wrong and her shirt collar is wrong.
Naegis zip is sewn on wrong and shouldn't be sticking out the bottom like that.

Nanami is nothing special, she gets points for making her costume but it's really unflattering on her and that wig is awful
Mikan is... okay, she needs to straighten out her bandages and she has a wonky apron. Wig is also too sleek and flat. Very cute face for the character though.
Hinata is very mediocre. The wig looks globbed up with product
Kamukura is laughable, they look like a wannabe goth girl
Komaeda... no. God no
Kuzuryuu is in a really ill fitted suit, points for shaving their head though
Junko is just not good. So sick of this Junko.
Hiyoko is nothing special. She's in the (inaccurate) ebay costume for one thing, then on the other hand her wig sucks, so there's not much good going on here
Nidai... Sorry, but this is a character who will never be appropriate for female to male crossplay.
Mahiru is pretty good, lovely jumper construction, but I really wish she'd use more makeup- she always has such a washed out pallor. I also think there's too much contrast in her jumper and socks, and both need to be a more olive shade than the sage she has
Gundam has got a girly baby face which doesn't suit him at all, and the wig/makeup work are pretty bad

I feel like I will never truly appreciate these cosplays because they're trying to portray twins and they're completely different races.

The problem is that while their cosplays are great, somehow I feel even MORE disappointed that their races don't match up/they look absolutely nothing like twins than just a plain old bad Junko/Junkuro cosplay.

I honestly could not find foam in that size for the life of me. I had tried stuffing a pair of hose and putting a wire in it, which had the shape, but the hair just would not stick. (And honestly, I haven't even seen her canon ponytails done very well, so I have no idea on how to translate that into a wig.) I'll keep looking into things, though! I had wanted to do at least do the curls, but the bangs curl would have looked funny without the side ones (which I need to keep down because of dark hair, but I still found shots where the photographer hadn't informed me of my hair showing underneath.) Oh, it doesn't discourage me! I'd like advice! I'm still a fairly new cosplayer (only a year this January) so advice is always helpful!
Oh no! I just noticed that! I have buttons to snap on the inside of the shirt to hold it down. I must have rushed too much (I was told a half-hour before the shoot the original Fukawa wasn't able to show.) and didn't snap it down. I'm surprised I wasn't told about that either. I've been thinking about remaking her outfit as well (I made it in two weeks back in late May, early June with broadcloth [and the color isn't even right] and I'm still learning the ropes as it is.) and cutting this one up for Another Episode Syo, though I'm hesitant because I haven't even played it.
The sleeves were sewn a bit low and I couldn't get the obi up more. (I might have to make a few alterations. I bought it from TaoBao to be honest because of pressure from my mother.) Ah, thank you! I appreciate it!

>>7189918
Ah, I had tried, but the wig is a little difficult to work with. I'll try to get them higher next time! I'd forgotten last minute that the bows were missing the kitties and it was too late by the time I remembered.

She's missing a lot though from what I can tell. Ibuki has accessories on each arm, on the arm we can see she should have a scrunchie and some rings which she doesn't. The wig is missing a lot and could have been done so much better. She's missing the spiked earrings and I can't see if she got the mouth peircings right. And this isn't even all of the costume! As another anon said the costume is apparently from bodyline and is pretty innacurate with the wrong number of stripes but I guess props to her for going navy instead of black. Any fullbody shots where her other arm isn't being obscured?
From what I can see though I'm not impressed.

I'm actually pretty disappointed things turned out as they did. I dropped out the day of the shoot because my costume wasn't finished. The peko and I both dropped out together and tbh once we reached the shoot we were pretty glad we did (especially when kuzuryuu tried talking to us... I shudder to remember. My peko was basically begging someone to save her from the awkward encounter)
I have some good friends in this shoot and at first I was so excited to be in it! Just because it was elemental and I'd seen some of her homestuck shoots and they'd turned out gorgeous. However I'm pretty positive her shoots will only turn out well if the models are really self aware and experienced in shooting etc. I personally have been in photoshoots before and practice posing and everything beforehand but I feel really bad that a bunch of kids who'd never been in a shoot quite like that before paid so much for what they got. She didn't even tell them to adjust their wigs or take off their burger king crowns and from what I heard didn't really help with posing either. Its pretty disappointing to know I'd waited so long to do a shoot with her only to find out... all this.
I just feel bad for all the kids seeing how their photos turned out because a lot of them seem unhappy and it just makes me feel bad that's how their first shoot ended up :/

Oh shit! That's not good. You'd think newspaper would be light though? I've been wanting to take a swing at saionji but I won't do it unless its the canon pigtails... do you think you could just piece together some foam then carve it to the right shape?
I think either way having two giant hair bananas attached to your head is gonna get annoying eventually isn't it...
Also do you have any advice for gluing hair to things? I won't use hot glue but it seems to be the only thing that actually freaking holds. You seem to have some experience there, is it ok to ask?

>> No.7192240

>>7192119
Yeah I thought so too! but I guess it was the duct tape that made it so heavy. I think using foam is your best bet. I would buy a bunch of sheets of foam, glue them together, and carve the pigtail shape. I think at Michael's they even sell blocks of styrofoam. As for glueing the hair, I covered my base in fabric and that seemed to help the hair stick with Got2b ultra glued gel. After drying if there's any pieces of gelled hair that unstick, if you're really careful, you can use a little bit of hot glue to hold it down. Just be really careful not to fry the hair when you do that haha. I hope this helped a bit anon!

Apparently one person is 30$ for 30 minutes, an hour is 40$. 50$ for 2 people for an hour. A group of 3-6 is 20$ per person and more people varies with each shoot.

Yeah I think that's the problem. Her photos used to seem really dynamic taken from cool angles etc etc plus most the shoots I've seen have been with, as you said, well known cosplayers with experience. I think a lot of things factored into this shoot turning out like it did? I watched for a few minutes before leaving because bk Kuzu lmao but the part I watched was individual shots right? It seemed like she just took head shots then fullbody and then literally rushed the models in and out when she was done. This approach just seems so boring and mechanical and it shows. I was in the fb group for the group since I was supposed to be in it and it seemed like the cosplayers were just talking amongst eachother and not communicating with everyone and I find that so unfortunate. Any time Elemental posted it was either about money or time tbqh. There were no photo suggestions, no convos with the photographer unless it involved payment.... I'm in a few other groups for Ohayo and there's two diff groups and two different photographers and in one of them group members are posting fanart inspirations etc for the photographer whos unfamiliar with dr to see, and that's hella rad! And in the other I feel like there's still a lot of communication plus the photographer knows dr and has been in shoots for it herself. The elemental shoot however.... this group seems like a large scale repeat of the acen group she shot, complete with everyone laying down dead and the boring static angles with headshots and full body and the harsh lighting from behind...... just this time it was with a ton of teenagers who didn't know what they were doing.
I've said it before and I'll say it again..... while I'm glad two of my good friends got shots they liked of their cosplays, everyone else just seems so dissatisfied and I'm so glad me and my boyfriend didn't pay all that money for this shoot.

Yeah, as a fairly new cosplayer (just under a year), I was really disappointed. I had fun at the shoot, but when it came to shots afterwards, no. It makes me worry about doing future shoots. I'm not experienced with this and I had no clue that I should be constantly on the lookout for mishaps in my costumes.

The photographer new nearly nothing about the series and still insisted on poses that were out of character. (I quietly corrected her, but she ushered me to do it the way she had planned.) Not only that, it felt really disrespectful and rude the way she addressed the cosplayers by on the spot nicknames. It was pretty uncomfortable. She didn't even know who the coordinator of the group was and called another cosplayer by their name. (incorrectly at that) She rushed everything, and said she went over time a bit, but at that price, what's the big deal? We were originally supposed to have six hours, but after not receiving payments beforehand, cut it back to three. (And it appeared she didn't have many shoots that weekend as it was, so I'm not sure why she couldn't go over a bit when she was getting paid so much.) Overall, I was really disappointed and maybe it's for the better I learned early on not to shoot with Elemental and to be hyper aware of my appearance during a shoot.

Christ. I was in a large DR2 group photoshoot during the summer and we all paid $6 each, and even though the photographer didn't know the series, we were all happy with the pictures. I am so sorry that you guys got ripped off so colossally with such a bad and unpleasant photographer.

>>7194062
Even if you are new, why wouldn't you want to make sure you straighten yourself a little before a picture? I'm an experienced cosplayer, and while most photogs will allow you to come up with your own pose and adjust from there, there are going to be some who will supply poses for you because what you think looks good actually is awful on film. On the spot nicknames are normal. It seems more the coordinator's fault for not reaching out to the photographer and laying out what they wanted out of the shoot. 6 hours is also a ridiculously long time for a shoot.

I don't know this particular photog at all, but I don't think it's entirely their fault this shoot turned out the way it did. You can't expect to rely 100% on the photog - the model has to do some of the work too. I DO agree that the price per person is way too much. I think the photog would be better off if they set a base price with like...$5 per additional person. Also the quality of these images in general are surprising considering the work I have seen from their Homestuck shoots.

[4:19:00 PM] [REDACTED]: there wasnt any communication on the facebook page thing either

Yup yup yup. Thats what the fb group was like! Now granted the people in the shoot probably coulda spoken up about photos but I didn't really see any point in suggesting stuff because I didn't want to manhandle someone else's shoot you know?
Also what >>7194095 says is true.... you really just always have to be hyper aware. Always fixing your wig, checking your cosplay.... lmao I was in a private shoot at otakon and didn't realize my knee brace had fallen down my leg until halfway through the shoot! Its completely necessary to be really aware of your looks at all times in cosplay, whether you're just walking around the convention center or in a photoshoot, because its embarrassing to see you fucked up!
The shoot was going to be six hours long because it was going to be a 3 hour dr shoot, a break, and then a 3 hour sdr2 shoot. But apparently we had to prepay most the money for that?
Idk whatever. It probably still wouldn't have made much of a difference even then, she probably still would have rushed the poor kids.

Okay here's some stuff I wish I had known when I first started out about doing proper shoots;

The thing is, what you need to do next time is take a hand mirror and a wig brush with you and YOU need to make sure your wig isn't frizzing and your costume looks right.

If you do another proper shoot aim to go to somewhere with a decent sized mirror before it so you can make sure everything like shirts for example are tucked in and your wig looks neat. a big window you can see your reflection in will do at a pinch.

Also talk to both your photographer and co-ordinator and tell them that if you're starting to get wig fuzz or have a double chin or your costume isn't right that you want to know. I know photographers who feel uncomfortable feeling like they're critisizing but as this thread testifies it'll reflect better on both parties if the shots /you are paying for/ come out their best.
I did a shoot as Vriska from Homestuck and had to tell my photographer that I wanted to know if my fringe was out of place or the wires in my robo arm were sticking out and it made the whole thing far nicer.

If I didn't shoot with people who were willing to outright say "hey that's not flattering and your wig needs a smooth down" I wouldn't get photos I actually like.

Know some poses you want to do and practice them, make sure they're flattering and don't make your costume bunch up weird or anything.

Communication between you is key and if they don't seem willing to communicate and do you both justice find somebody who will.

as a cosplayer, its a good thing to make photographer friends. ive never had to pay a dime and i get the photos that i love because they know exactly what i want, what angles are flattering, what to fix, and how to edit them.

ive never truly understood why people would pay for photoshoots when you can get photos just as good, if not better, for free from your friends.

just make photographer friends basically. if you get involved in your local cosplay community enough, youre bound to make photographer friends. not only will you get photos you like, but the photoshoot is a lot more comfortable and light hearted.

It's because she's disgustingly shameless. Even after being called out on Tumblr, even after thousands of people saw that post, she still took no responsibility whatsoever. If I had been her, I would have been so humiliated I would have just quit cosplay and never, ever shown my face at a con ever again. The sheer fact that she continues to not only make cosplay but attend cons and act like everything is normal is just appalling. Heaven is god-tier garbage.

I'm kinda shocked. I shot with Elemental in the past. Our group was about 10 people. It was $40 up front for 2 people and $5 per person after that. This was for an hour shoot.

Maybe her rates go up by the hour?

Either way, these photos are just so plain. I'm guessing she was freaking out about making sure she got everyone photos in 3 hours.
