SO! We talked about how in general everything so "Meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeh." but how come the two girls, who are soooo amazing at making detailed Madd Effect armors, totally fuck up Yvetal? The hell was the fur...neck..carpet thing? Why no foam cut outs of the eyebrow ridges/horn things and glued to her face? Why was it so messed up? I could think of a million different ways to go about it then what they did.

[Anonymous No.7586490]

Wtf? Is that Meg Turney?
I really liked her on Source Fed. Damn. I have a feeling like that won't last long now.

nah, it's chloe dykstra, the gretchen wieners of cosplay (her dad invented light sabers, and she trades on that for geek cred)

[Anonymous No.7586642]

>>7586451
Because they are lazy fucks? Its the only really reason I can see for why they dont pump out more good costumes since their Mass Effect ones. They claim they have a company but when you go to the site they have nothing to show on their site blog beyond "Lol I saw a movie today!" What do they do all day? Jessica works for Bioware but Holly seems to just sit around living on her husbands youtube money. Oh and making videos teaching people how to cosplay... Though should someone really teach something they rarely do without pre-buying everything?

Its kinda mind boggling that she has all these connections with actual Hollywood movie FX ppl and doesnt do anything with them. Besides their Mass Effect armor and the first Krogan (2nd one was terrible) they havent done anything. Their most recent costumes were all made by someone else because they cant sew.

Here have some irony. Holly when she first was cosplaying used to bitch about people who used only foam to make things and that seems to be all she does herself now.

[Anonymous No.7586644]

>>7586451
That had to make in five days... for drama.

Jesse was pretty cool back in Season 1. I don't know what he was thinking with the megaman costume though. Seemed like such a downgrade for his skill level.

Got 2 more guys this season. Don't know who they are. Feels like there should be a crossplay done on the show. Guess you can't have that when you're making fake drama to pad the show more.

Carl I know from the Texas scene, was actually really surprised when he said he was going to be on the show, because he really didn't seem like the type. Creatures, props and makeup are his forte, because he sculpts so well. I've always known him to be a really nice and talented guy, but then again I don't know him well, so who knows. I know his sister much better.

She only said that because she has a beef with Volpin, because he is actually successful and she allied herself with a dying company who is going to be dissolved by EA within the next year.

Holly, Jessica, and Chloe are all retards.

So I stumbled upon this panel video on youtube with a bunch of the HoC cast. I haven't finished watching the whole thing yet but is it just me or can you feel the general undertone of the cast being sick of being on the show already? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nIxVfeZR5WY

The tidbit about cons canceling on them and the cast having to rush to a different con and make a whole new outfit made me lol though.

[Anonymous No.7587619]

Is it just me, or has the show changed somehow? The heroes actually congratulated one of the winners, there was slightly more goofing around (at least when compared to the last season), professional costumer's work was shown in detail... Of course, Yaya-glorification never changes and I'm already getting tired of the "let's start our elaborate costumes a week before the con, yaaay", but some changes have happened.

[Anonymous No.7587662]

>>7586664
Each episode makes it seem like these conventions are all back to back, forcing the cosplayers to make new costumes every week. When in reality they are months apart and either spend longer making the costumes then the show lets on or procrastinated like lazy bitches.

[Anonymous No.7587970]

>>7587834
The only problem I have with this excuse is they shouldnt be surprised after the first season about having to make new costumes so fast. If they were smart they would plan ahead with a couple of costumes they could make for different cons and start planning and patterning right away.

>>7587438
They could leave if they wanted too considering Monika did. Sounds like Yaya and Riddle are probably the only ones under a longer contract considering they almost called the show Yaya's World and they were the cosplayers who first signed up. They just like the attention and the special treatment they are getting. Which they should just admit and drop the poor us act.

[Anonymous No.7588111]

Am I the only one that caught that she had to spray paint her sunglasses? Like how hard is it to find white sunglasses?

I thought Yvetal was going to be epic, but the lack of horns made this whole thing awkward. No wonder they didn't place.

It's not like people have literally been cosplaying her since the day she was revealed or anything...

Does anyone know who the cute pinkie pie cosplayer in the beginning is? She flashes on screen for a few seconds, I love good MLP cosplayers they're so rare

[Anonymous No.7588464]

Did anyone else expect. I dont know. A better cosplay from Indra/Fantasy ninja? The armor isnt cut out good so the lines are uneven and wobbly, and the headpiece is so flat and boring. The bodice fit badly and was made from hideous material you could see in the close ups. I thought I liked her costumes but looking at her gallery now, its all sloppy details and tons of blur in photoshop.

[Anonymous No.7588673]

>>7588464
Not the only one. Compared to the reference picture she was using, I expected it to look better and a lot more detailed.

[Anonymous No.7589267]

i've just started watching this show, and my main question is why did they choose the people they've selected to follow, when overall their cosplays are rushed or lackluster, or don't make sense with the con? especially freaking "cats: memesical".

[Anonymous No.7589276]

>>7588464
I thought it was too flat and too dark. In some shots it looked totally brown. I know she was going for weathered bronze but it should still look shiny since it is She-Ra

[Anonymous No.7589486]

>>7589267
because everyone who's been chosen was hand picked by Yaya, has been kissing her ass to get more *~*exposure*~* or is doing cosplay as a professional thing, which is the angle Yaya seems to be trying to take with cosplay as a whole for everyone. It's no longer a hobby guys, it's srs work that will pay your bills.

[Anonymous No.7589494]

I don't know about you guys but I'm super psyched Holly is back this season. last season she walked in as Ross (her husband) was streaming while he worked on an animation and started bitching about how the show was being torn apart on tumblr while he just nodded and replied with single word answers. Lookin' forward to whatever off-screen drama she might bring forward.

[Anonymous No.7589589]

>>7589486
It would be a lot better if they showcased maybe different stages of cosplayers; hobbyists and people spinning it into careers (or using it as practice, like some of the contestants on face off), and watching them balance budgeting and work and fabrication. The whole season would just be one con (pick the major ones around the US like otakon, sakuracon, ACen) and it would walk us through maybe 4 or so people as they go from idea to finalized project.
But of course then Yaya wouldn't get to whine about everything onscreen all the time so

[Anonymous No.7589690]

>>7589589
while i like this idea, i think the average person would find it boring as hell....reality tv tends to be all about the drama, whether real or fabricated, so that's what they're rolling with.

My understanding was that their SUPER AWESOME PRO AWARD WINNING Mass Effect cosplay group was largely done by other people. Despite their whole crab cat studio thing, they don't really seem to do much, cosplay-wise, and in that little Pacific Rim tribute they did with the Game Grump, they kind of showed their hand, so to speak, when they revealed all their professional costume and prop making friends from Hollywood, who did all their work for them.

[Anonymous No.7592466]

>>7589486
This. This. This.

The show is about Yaya furthering her career as a non-productive star of the cosplay community. She's not trying to make cosplay cooler or more professional or push for bigger more professional competitions with better prizes. She's pushing for more Yaya time because Yaya time means more money.. She wants to be famous and wealthy and loved for being Yaya, and nothing else.

[Anonymous No.7592495]

It bugs me a lot that they don't give you names of the cosplayers. I'd follow the hell out of that Raiden cosplayer from the MGR group. Please tell me someone knows his name or something?

[Anonymous No.7592594]

Indra/Fantasyninja is fake as hell, and a big source of drama in Florida.

She was fucking another cosplayer's boyfriend secretly for many months, sometimes at cons and then swore other cosplayers to secrecy. When she got caught, she didn't apologize for betraying her friend and only wanted to know who "ratted her out."

She says she hasn't competed for years, but lost miserably in her diablo armor a year and a half ago and threw the winners, including her own friends who won, on 4chan.

She and John are already slated to be the next stars, and when they air the Megacon episode, it will be edited to make them appear to win everything but in reality they were placed in a separate category with only two other contestants previously screened and selected, with Yaya being the deciding factor.

[Anonymous No.7593161]

Whoa, and Indra was looking like the normal one on the show this time around.

I love how these are supposed to be the cream of the crop with the production team trying to market them as the greatest cosplayers of all time and yet they constantly have their "Heroes" beaten out around every single turn.

[Anonymous No.7593288]

>>7593258
Are they supposed to be the best cosplayers ever? Or does it seem like they picked people with some sort of 'pull' to be on their show? I dont remember that girls name who is dating chris hardwick but she seems far from an AMAZING cosplayer, but it seems like she's got connections in the biz. Yaya is sort of the same way.

More or less when i watched the first season (I have yet to watch the new episodes yet) I was interested in their process a bit. That was cool. Most of their personalities were interesting enough so that when they were talking it wasn't just a complete asperger bore-fest. They all seem to live in the same area too, right? That makes everything easier.

Seeing them lose in competitions is great too. If you saw them win all the time you'd suspect that there was some foul play since they are on ~tv~. But no, it comes down to the costumes and their competition.

[Anonymous No.7593297]

I wouldn't be taking any tips from the show, just about everything they were doing last season was wrong or the stupidest possible way to go about something.

well yeah, i've learned that now. but seeing whatever they did being done was still interesting. It made for a good tv show. People on this board will nitpick it completely apart but from a TV watcher perspective it had it's interesting points.

I think you can get some footage of them actually explaining stuff on SyFy's website but I've never looked into that section. From that panel interview it sounds like they hated trying to make stuff with films crews around because they would constantly ask them to dumb down their explanations to the point where they couldn't explain anything and would just make most of their costumes when the crew left.

I was talking to my friend about this show. He called it titties of cosplay. Truth.

[Anonymous No.7593381]

>>7592594
yeah i was never really very impressed with anything i saw her in (back when i was in FL). i know people who sew better and make much nicer, cleaner armor pieces.

more notes on the megacon china trip thing that she won...anon already mentioned that there were only 3 entries. also, the contest was announced maybe a month before the con. the megacon anime contest has become pretty bad in the last 5 years or so...so people already were less likely to enter. plus you had to be a duo.

[Anonymous No.7593663]

>>7593381
The special trip to China was presented during the costume contest as if it were the same thing, but it was totally separate. Groups had to be approved to enter, so Heroes of Cosplay producers could approve the competition. Again, there were only three groups approved. The prize was a trip to compete at the chinese knock off WCS where Heroes of Cosplay will film Yaya Han acting as a "manager" for the duo. Yaya, Indra and John all signed their contracts BEFORE Megacon happened. It was already decided they would go. The show will air edited to make it seem like they won the entire masquerade and got a great prize, when in truth it was a rigged contest entirely separate from the actual costume contest. I feel terrible for the poor saps who thought they had a chance.

[Anonymous No.7593678]

>>7593663
yup. i remember when the anime folks from mega announced the contest like it wasn't a rigged thing. people got ecited for about 5 seconds, then saw it was a "yaya approved" thing and passed on it entirely.

TBH the megacon anime contest isn't THAT great...then again, easier for HoC to sandbag it i guess.

[Anonymous No.7593700]

>>7593678
True. And the anime sushi contest is only one of many costume contests at Megacon. In fact, the other contests announced publically that they were not affiliated with Heroes of Cosplay, and the audiences went wild with applause.

This is what I'd like to see. I've seen some costumes that certainly easily look better than what I've seen on the show. I watch because it gets me into the crafting mode but I'd like to see more focus on the actual construction aspect.

I think the girls with CrabCat could do much more although I did like the wing-arms as well. I also hope Jesse ups his game. Can't wait to see the other new cast since it's nice to see different faces, especially guys!

>>7594737
I don't get the school part. I watched the video o the HoC panel and where one of the crabcats was talking about how they never mentioend in the show how one of them was a full time student which is why they always seemed to be rushing. It's like it's hard enough to be a full time student, be a regular cosplayer and run a "business." Why did they think it was a good idea to add a reality show on top of that.

Maybe she's decided to stop slacking off, since she only has a couple of semesters left and is going to be busy doing another Blizzard internship this summer. And she might have been at risk of losing that internship if she didn't keep a certain gpa.

Crabcat is trying to make a "business" out of their cosplay and commissions. So they probably saw the show as exposure for their brand.

>>7594737
She used the school as an excuse. Smart of her. A few of the cosplayers dont actually want to be involved anymore, after they saw how Sci-Fi made them come off. There's a reason Sci-Fi called it "season 1.5" instead of 2; So that everyone is still under their original contracts. If they were asked to sign on for season 2, most of them would have said no.

I've noticed that too. They still look huge in some recent costumes, but I think part of that at least is because of the pushup bras she wears. When she takes photos out of cosplay, her boobs look a lot more natural.

Yeah, if they have been reduced, I think they look soo much nicer. Still kind of big, but not implantballoon levels.

This might have already been said but I think I caught wind of something. I think they are doing easy costumes on purpose.

Do you remember the finale of last year how they had super-mega overkill on the rest of the competition? No other team had smoke machines, special lights or a huge-ass dragon with volunteers to help. At that skill level I'd be kind of embarrassed to compete. It's like Voplin bringing his Big Daddy Costume to your local shitcon with his own lighting crew. It's just ... overkill. Imagine competing in a contest and then finding out Yaya was a competitor?

So I don't think the Pokemon thing was to win, it was just for TV seeing as they are probably required to compete by contract. Yaya seems to grab a Guest Judge seat a lot so I guess that's her loop hole out of it.

[Anonymous No.7595182]

>>7595161
If they just want to do some sort of speed cosplay competition, then they should do it in Face/off format, or whatever.

Each episode, they are given a workshop, a theme, and a time limit, and expected to churn out a costume quickly to compete for a panel of judges, which can include Yaya and any other wanna-be cosplay celebrities.

Doing this whole traveling to every con and constantly struggling to get a costume done in a few hours before the contest is fucking stupid and makes everyone look like a zero talent retard.

[Anonymous No.7595264]

>>7595161
yup, the "bring an amazing awesome high level costume to a con in east bumblefuck" is what is known as sandbagging. i feel like most of the cons they go to are like this, since most of the shit i've seen on HoC couldn't win anything in a good contest. example, none of this shit would win anything at d*con or worldcon.

Oh the delicious drama this will cause. I wasn't much of a fan of Monika but I love how irrationally pissed off Yaya was about her 'protege' (booth slave) becoming friends with basically her rival.

Why did Monika leave anyway? Or did she get booted?

There are a couple theories.

>She rated low among viewers.
>School.
>Didnt want to do it anymore.

I think it was all 3. Why wouldnt someone who didnt like the show in their final year of college not want to leave the show? She has gotten all the publicity she needed from it as well as her internship with Blizzard what more can she squeeze from it? If you watch the panel posted earlier in the thread she admits the show was the reason she was even able to get to the Blizzard interview because the show paid for her to go. She probably just asked to get out of the show and they didnt really care and let her go.

Seriously this. at best you might get $100-$500 cash but if it's a big costume you won with that will pretty much just cover part of the costs of your winning costume. If you're in cosplay contests looking for them to be lucrative, then you're in hte wrong hobby.

best to worst personalities on the show from the perspective of someone who only knows these people from the show (aside from yaya)

>holly
seems chill overall, does cool shit (the dragon boat and the pacific rim stuff specifically, but then that yvetal...), has a good attitude most of the time
>riki
seems experienced and doesn't throw a fit if something goes wrong, nice construction
>jesse
really nice craftsmanship but man just ditch the facial hair for things you need to show your face for... doesn't whine, seems able to adapt to the situation and think realistically
>indra
decent construction, but seems TOO confident in her work (i thought it was unimpressive, honestly), gives an air of bitchiness i cant quite describe
>jessica
can be annoying, seems less experienced but tries to make things work, though its clear why she's second string to holly
>becky
seems annoying and dependent on her beta as fuck roommate, but isn't a total dramaqueen and tries to get along with the others

What is wrong with Chloe? I don't find her a drama queen at all tbh. I think she is pretty mellow just like Holly and Jessica. She can be a bit ''Look at all my geek cred!!11'' sometimes. But nothing drama worthy in particular. Yaya, Monika and Victoria however were annoying the crap out of me and act like huge bitches. Glad that two of them won't return. Can't really remember Riki though. For some vague reason I remember her as a bit of a bitch too..

She does doesn't she? I remember her working on her costumes earlier in the season. They wouldn't choose someone with zero experience in making their costumes IN A SHOW ABOUT MAKING COSPLAYS. I also remember hearing her in a podcast saying that not making your costume is lame and takes all the fun out of it. Everyone is laughing at her Fennekin cosplay but when Holly and Jessica asked her to join their Pokemon group it was pretty evident that she was very not keen so obviously she wouldn't put as much effort in.

Do you not remember the episode where she starts out sitting in front of a sewing machine literally struggling to thread it

Her dad made her prop and she doesn't make any of her costume pieces. She commissions them from Creature Habits and other friends. Her Fennekin costume was a store bought yellow dress and hooker boots.

I agree, Chloe's one of my favorites on there.
It was actually sort of heartwarming in one of the first few episodes where she was like "well of course it's ok when novices do it, cosplay is about having fun!" and pretty much every other person when they were out to dinner or something were like, nooo, it's about being professional and whatever, all that Yaya propaganda type shit. She just seems really sweet. I don't think having some porn of her exist makes her less sweet.

Keep in mind that not all contests care about craftsmanship. Comic conventions tend to lean towards who had the coolest stuff where anime cons will have standards from craftsmanship and care more about who made what.

Speaking of which I love how in the last episode of last season the judges outright refused to inspect Yaya's costume up close. She then makes a stink about how proper judging requires looking at a costume from every angle and up close. Even though you could tell the judges were basically saying "You're Yaya we believe you."

BUT shes friends with people who were big in the early So Cal 2000s scene and they all still hang out so ya she knows Adella. Creature Habits owner who made Chloe's Skyrim costume knows Adella and has done collabs with her. If you look at the Creature Habits etsy page they both model her flower crowns.

Nah the skeksis looked disproportionate. Not to mention it just looked entirely lifeless and way too over decorated. Probably covering up a lot of anatomical errors.

Because the Skesis wasn't even an actual character. They basically called it a Skesis but it was an original design. If they had based it off an ACTUAL design then they probably would have won something.

Because it was terribly made. One of the judges came out and said that when they looked at it up close everything was a hot mess when it came to the fabric parts of the costume which is about 80% of the costume. Yes the head and hands and back were casted and looked good but if the largest part of your costume is terrible your not going to win. The Dany only got a judge award which isnt anything really special and it looked like she had done some leather work and the rest of the outfit was sewn well. (Wig sucked tho.) The elf was sewn really nice with custom piping and a crown etc looked amazing. Just because something is 'big' doesnt mean its made well and sometimes outfits that look simple are just better.

Still can't get over how Jesse spent all that time making rings and didn't even do the designs on them when he could have gone to fucking Claires if he had to and just buy plain silver bands and made resin jewels or something. That would have looked way better than his rough handmade rings.

Shit where was this? I have been happy these last two eps that the judges have seem to be harder on the 'heroes.' It at least makes it seem that they attempted some legitimacy in judging so that the people who showed up without the help of the show have a chance. That Sleeping Beauty judge who put down Indra's costume for not being a laced backed when Yaya was claiming it was a corset was correct in her observation. Indra had a shitty china brand corset under a bodice top with a zipper back. Its not as impressive as if she had taken the time to make the top with boning in it.

ACTUALLY, she married someone else for her Green Card. It didn't work out (or she just married him for his green card, whatever you choose to believe)

Then she started dating her fiancee on the show. They've been engaged for years. Rumor is its because she's still kinda married to her previous husband or something.

Boob job I'm pretty sure was paid for by Cat Ears and Craft Foam wings. AND she got them while dating her fiancee.

I'm really surprised Jesse didn't bother to weather his rings AT ALL even though that was such a big deal for him with the Assassin's Creed costume.

I will say with Indra's Ahri that leaving the tails down looked better than I thought it would. Certainly looked better than trying to leave them in a half-assed wiring job. I guess it helps that there are points in her animations where they're more down/relaxed but usually only when she's ulting.

Skeksis....well I guess I liked their idea. But They didn't do much to hide the fact the head was definitely an arm with a puppet hand. At the very least she should have angled her arm/body better so it wasn't so off-center.

I'm a little surprised Yaya hasn't had lasik already. But I'm with >>7598168 glasses are fucking kawaii.

As someone who doesn't live in the US but lurks here, this Green card comment always makes me laugh. While I know it happens a lot, it just seems to be what Americans first assume when a foreigner marries one of you. So typical that Americans think everyone wants to be American.

Americans can only marry Americans, otherwise its for the green card?
