/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

Oh cool I didn't realise it was so long running, I had never heard of it until this year so figured it might be kinda new. I have friends in Bristol so I'm just dishing out £15 on the train so not costing much at all. Looking forward to the after party!

Maybe, I'm not sure if it'll be very big but it's nice to have something in the South West

Honestly although the convention itself wasn't too amazing, most people still had fun regardless.
I didn't stay in the actual Britannia but I saw my friends rooms and they looked quite nice, plus it was in a really great location with a Tesco around the corner and lots of shops/restaurants/bars just down the road.
Yes the whole 10th floor thing was a problem, but as far as I know all the others floors were hotel rooms? I'm not sure.
You need to remember that yes it was a first time convention, I've heard that Kita/Aya etc were also quite bad in their first year.
Hopefully next time they'll realise that there needs to be more gaming and better organisation.

Also to the people complaining about the parties, the DJs put an insane amount of effort into everything and well, there was music and a dance floor so make your own fun.

Anyone going to the precon drinking sesh at that cocktail bar on Thursday?

>>6671632
Oh god I keep forgetting how close it is. I've done the patterning for Aela but nothing for Windrunner yet, at least I have Cammy and Jill to fall back on if I dont finish I guess.

I've just finished my Jill cosplay, I think this will be my first ever expo where I'm not finishing something the night before.
There's a cgl meet but not sure where or when.

I can't remember what time things 'settled' down last time, but as far as I can remember the campsite is quite out the way so as long as it's not festival-level music go hard all you like

>>6595775
Haha yeah that was shit, but apart from that drama shitfest Toko was actually pretty amazing, and I hate camping!

>>6595776
>implying I use these words seriously

>>6595462

I thought I was prepared but I'm really not...Place paid for, hotel booked and need to sort out travel now.
I'll either be redoing Cammy or doing C Viper instead, along with Claire Redfield and Kasumi. Need to get a wiggle on...How about you?

>>6564569
Membership paid for and hotel room booked! Decided on your cosplays yet?

>>6548136
No good ones no, they are a few smaller ones in Bristol and Plymouth that I know of

>>6547233
Oh dear, does that mean some people were bunked up to pending when they wasnt actually any spaces?

>>6546143
Yeah loads of people accidentally make double registrations, so when they were deleted the waiting list went down a lot.

>>6546144
I don't think I've ever stayed in a Travelodge before, how bad are the double rooms?

>>6535681
Which hotel is that? Was originally booked into the Rutland as reccomended by the Gemu website, then my friend found a Travelodge the same distance away (like a 2 minute walk) for £100 cheaper,

Sounds like a good plan, I was planning on buying a wig from Arda for the base, Jeannie I think? One of the ponytail ones.

>>6526067
I'm trying to figure out how to do Megara's (Hercules) hair without it looking like a hot mess...

>>6517656
I am so game.

>>6511730
Isn't that the weekend after Gemucon? I would but Gemu is gonna eat my money.

>>6496479
I shall be hopefully! Was meant to be doing Stocking Anarchy but had to postpone it, now I'm doing Megara from Hercules and trying to bribe my boyfriend into doing Herc.
I'm happy to arrange/help arrange a meet, there's a lot of big open spaces inside the building so it's up to everyone where the meet is.

I've kind of been scared off PAX the time my bf used it for Kamina as it took off some skin. But I think it's probably my best bet for her tattoos though, I'll have a lookie around and see what I can find~

Are you both going Promstuck then? I'm thinking of ditching Jade's 3AM dress and doing something else for it. Maybe Porrim but bodypaint + dancing + drinking...
