And tripfags coming in to post in

1..

Come on guys! I want to see! :3

I am not that good and I'm not a tripfag, so I won't be posting. But I'll be looking at it.

>>3146964
No, please post! I'd really like to see.

I'll jump in.

Only thing that isn't great about it is the wig, but otherwise I like how it came out.

My Nabiki from Ranma 1/2. I really liked how the photoshoot turned out.

I don't cosplay but I have a picture of a friend who cosplays. Her cosplay isn't all that accurate but the picture is very pretty.

>>3146970
I love Ranma! I'm so glad someone did a cosplay of it.

I guess I'll play as well. Not completely accurate...but my best cosplay.

>>3146970
Why didn't she iron it?

>>3146974
what are you waiting

>>3146984
I don't understand your question.

>>3146986
post that photo

Less typing, more pics.

THE BEST

>>3146994
I dunno, she told me she hates having pics of herself up on cgl/4chan.
I think it because 4chan tends to be full of hate.

>>3146997
wat is this i don't even

I think my best costume is my Maya Fey costume...but I sadly don't have a lot of great photos of it. Probably the best one I have that shows everything.

moar

>>3147006
it won't hurt that much and the thread is dead

I haven't any photoshoot pictures I can share, and I don't have the wig yet for my Meryl cosplay or I would post that, so have some Winry.

Last year at AX2009

>>3147041
Okay, I doubt she'll find out anyways, she only lurks on /b/

>>3147057
You posted this one before in a Hetalia thread.

>>3147079
Yes, I did. And so far I think she hasn't found out. She hasn't said anything yet.

I don't know what my best costume is, or what my favorite photo is...so I guess I'll just post this. I like how my wig looks in this one.
>>3146970
You're fucking adorable.
>>3146943
OP, is that you or just a photo from the internets? If that's you, it looks like a really nice costume.

Rather than post my hot pink Giorno nightmare which everybody has seen over 9000 times, I'll post Vinegar Doppio instead. I think it's equally as good as Giorno and, surprisingly enough, it was a far harder costume construction-wise.

Besides. I don't have any pictures with Giorno where I actually found scenery that looks remotely like any of the actual locations in the manga, whereas for this one I found something reminiscent of one of the locations. Fuck yeah.

>>3147104
you have better pics of that costume.

On the right, for those who dont know.
I doubt I'll ever make anything as good as that again.

>>3147222
Aw don't say that. Why vinyl btw?

>>3147222
I'm loving that blue fabric. What is that, and where did you get it? Looks like some kind of metallic vinyl but I'm rather poor with fabric identification.

>>3147222
Why Tsugaru, if I may ask? She just seems really unpopular.

>>3147117

you have such a cool face. I just thought you should know that.

I know, sorry. totally random. first thing I thought.

>>3147228
Because IIDX is very vinyl-ey, and it works perfectly.
>>3147232
Its a metallic blue vinyl~~
I really cant remember if it was MJtrends or syfabrics. My order was messed up, and I originally ordered the navy, but I had to re-order and got that color. I honestly dont know what color it is, but its way nicer for the character than the navy.
>>3147236
Im actually Erika.

>>3147252
Fuck I always get those two confused. Sorry.

Despite the simple design, this is still my favorite costume I've ever done, and it turned out the best I think. Second possibly to my Sheena costume but I don't have very good pictures of that.

Keep them coming guys!

Penny took this photo, she rocks at photography.

How about a compromise with most recent of most well known? Not sure what I'd consider my best cosplay. Also, lolol bunny teeth. My tongue's in the way and making them look more bunnyish than they actually are.

>>3147269
Gorgeous work. I like the location of this photo too, and the fact that you can see all the costume elements.

>>3147222
Nicely done!

>>3147117
>>3147104
>>3147100
You're freaking cute.

>>3147359
Okay, this is an awesome photo.

>>3147269

Holy crap, people still cosplay X/1999? How recent is this picture? (Do the prayer beads and you'll be my hero)

My favorite so far is my Flamedramon suit. No where near amazing, but I think it's my best work yet.

>>3147359
lksjlkjdflksjdf it's beautiful.

>>3147383
TRUFAX: I was on the ledge of the top of a parkade, in heels, in a slight breeze. I DON'T RECOMMEND ANYONE EVER TRY THAT. IT WAS SORT OF SCARY. D:

I bit.

>>3147413
D: I was once in a similar situation, only up a tree in stilettos for Terra from Dissidia. Not fun.

>>3147425

FUCK YEAH EXCELLENT NEL! Love it!

(A fellow SO3 cosplayer)

>>3147413
and someone was yelling something at you from the ground.
Im kinda surprised no one came up to yell at us.
Also, you flatter me. <3

>>3147389

The costume is two years old but I still wear it to conventions. I keep meaning to do the prayer beads but I haven't gotten around to it yet.

>>3147432
Thank you! : D Glad you recognize.

I really need to get better pictures of this costume, the photographer I hired was pure shit. Every pictures was blurry or dark, and she didnt even do the full set I paid for.

/rant

Maybe not the best photo of this costume, but it's really recent and therefore my current favorite.

Oh, and I'm on the right.

>>3147425
I don't know the costume, but it's amazing!

>>3147393

I was reminded of this.

>>3147447
Please, PLEASE do Shinobu from either of the No More Heroes games! Hell, I'd make the damn costume for you because you'd make a perfect Shinobu.

Diiiis ooone.

>>3147393
I saw you at AnimeNext! Me and my friends all really loved your costume. Awesome job

>>3147447

Looks nice so far, although your photographer really is an asshole if she took money for such blurry and dark pics..
I really like how you got the rocket launcher the right colour and how you even added the rills!
Maybe you should overthink the blade of Kalina Ann because it looks a littlebit broad in comparison to the launcher.
But then again I'm maybe to hard on that because I'm working on Kalina Ann with my girlfriend atm ;D

It's the best photo I can find of this cosplay.

>>3147517
Yay for Fairy Tail cosplay. <3

>>3147517
izzat sum gay bulge?

>>3147517
unnffffff.

>>3147490

Thanks so much!

>>3147466
Haha actually thats on my to-do list. Hopefully sometime later this year when I actually finish the game ^^;

>>3147496
Thanks! Hmm, the only thing that really bothers me about it is the color of the blade. Me and painting don't mix, so I really need to redo it for a more realistic look instead of just plain silver.

>>3147551
is that good or bad?

>>3147547
das some Ethiopia.. Edorian prince! unf!

>>3147555
np

>>3147578
Ad I said, I might be too hard bout that 'cause I've grown to be some sorta proportioning-nazi (made a pattern for Rebellion while I measured the mm's in Photoshop hurrr).

I've found this tutorial very helpful for weathering effects, maybe it can help you, too?

>>3147633
fairy tale is probably one of the worst ripoff mangoes/animes ever created.

that costume is almost piece for piece Lancer.

>>3147517

Yups, he's most definitely a dick guy.

>>3147651

This is like... a god send! No more bland silver blades! I am infinitely thankful for your awesomeness.

Now all I have to do is finish in the next 9 days and figure out how to get Kalina Ann on a plane... Oh joy

>>3147361
I thought they called you Delicious Reno for shits and giggles, but now I understand.

I'm not sure if this is my best costume but it's one of my favorite photos

I'm the Dhalsim. Simple costume. No work whatsoever. :|

>>3147104
Awesome Samus, I've literally been fapping to pics of you ever since I've seen them.

>>3147748

Not sure if this is my best cosplay...mostly I'm just proud of how fast I pumped it out. And this photo makes me look like a totally different (much prettier) lady. Although I wish I could shoop at all. Would get rid of my highly visible spanx action.

>>3147758
You are not online but Victor told me to tell you he loves this picture...

>>3147765
you have ridiculously veiny feet.

>>3147813
I'm a nigger. It's to be expected. Also, that ground was HOT LAVA.

This is still my favorite cosplay photo and still my favorite cosplay even if that wig is a pain in the butt.

Sage for self post~

>>3147843
brb fappin

>>3147843
You make a beautiful Emeraldas.

>>3147879
this

>>3147836
that has nothing to do with being a nigger, take your vitamins! B-12 and Omega-3's will help with that!

i think this is my best costumes to date i was really happy how it came out

I have so many favorite pictures of this costume, but this is probably the best one. This is also my best-constructed costume to date, and I am so proud of it :<

>>3147886
Have you seen black people. Jesus christ they are veiny. Besides, I only get like that when it's REALLY fucking hot.

Best yet. The hotel background thing puts a damper on it for me...need to take some better ones when I head out to New Mexico.

I only have con photos, but I love this costume.

>>3147457
Thank you : )

>>3148030
FUCKYESROLAND.

>>3148031
Yum

Yeah, sure, I'll post, I suppose.
It was either this, or one of my Kafei pictures. I love them both.

Sadly enough.

>>3148031

My god that's pretty.

. . .

Fuck it!

Self post! Go!

>>3148031
What did you make the hilt of your sword from, if you don't mind my asking? And the knee armor?

>>3147222
Just because of you I'll post my IIDX Empress cosplay I love your costume by the way, I saw a lot of your group shots when I was starting my cosplays.

I absolutely love this costume, and the little bunny my friend made for me to go with it. From NYAF last year.

>>3148094
We lucked out and had a sword with a similar hilt to Selvaria's and just added a few crossed areas with wire. The knee armor is craftfoam.

>>3148111
What color is that wig? Did you dye it yourself, or can you link to where you bought it?

Or is it your own hair?

>>3148135
It's a wig I bought from Cog&Marc. I loved it, but like a lot of long wigs it was just a bit thin and of course it tangles like crazy, haha.

m&pt=US_CSA_MWA_Wigs_Extensions&hash=item1e57e1859e

Not the best but thought this shot was cool.

>>3147671
Newfag, begone.

>>3148145
It'd be lovely for a komugi costume.

I was gonna go with an L cosplay pic that I thought was excellent, but it's not exactly the bestest cosplay ever so....

I'ma go with my cosplay with my bestest wig ever and a picture that makes me smile a little. Would make me smile more if Knux's hand wasn't cut of but eh.. what can I do?

this is my best one so far. Still not happy with it, but it's wearable I guess.

I want to make it look as good as possible for AX, but i'm running out of ideas for additions

I am a pretty shit cosplayer (See Sanji on left) but I like this picture. So, here is my 'best'.

I have two favorites, one being anime related [ lol Higurashi no Naku Koro ni] and the other is this..

I'll just go with this :<

>>3148061
You make a very nice Terra : ) I like the painted details

>>3148204

Any One Piece cosplayer that doesn't suck is a bro.

You are bro-tier. Thumbs up.

>>3148213
Where the hell did you take that photo?

>>3148235
east LA in the projects, pretty cool place

>>3148204

let's get a close look at your face there

My best and probably my favorite too :)

>>3148030

Great success. Doesn't look like a costume.

I don't know if this is my absolute favorite cosplay pic of me, but you did say the best picture of the best costume...

>>3148264
I have a terrible normal face. So, here my SORONERY face.

>>3148295

Looks normal to me. Stop crying homo.

I think this is the best photo of a costume i have. It is such an old costume though.

>>3148312
Adorable!

Decided to keep it simple. I suppose this is the best picture I have out of those taken so far.

>>3148252
Oh you.
>>3148235
An Abandoned Horse track not far from my house. Made a good place for some Silent Hill photos.

I hate posting this photo everywhere, but my boyfriend's a lazy jerkface who won't finish postprocessing my photoshoot D:

Alexiel from Angel Sanctuary, btw.

I'm the Red Mage

my favorite costume and favorite photographer that took pics of it

Sure, why not :3

My favorite. Lol you can hardly see me, but.

And you can't see my costume at all, hahaha.

>>3148428
Forgot my stupid photo.

>>3148183

If I may be so bold, some small gold chains and lots of flat-back rhinestones along with some hanging jewels would really make this IMHO. I would also go for some lace, but not gay Joanns lace. Like, more Victorian/antique lace in either black or black with gold. I have no idea where you would put it but just like ruffles of that everywhere would look very cunning.

I wouldn't say the best of the best in my collection, but definitely one of my favorite photos from last year.

>>3148373
This rules. You rule.

>>3148517
Thank you! I'm trying to make Lucifer for my bf, but it probably won't be around till Katsucon, since I can't afford Otakon and don't feel inclined to attend AUSA. Shame, I wanted to go to the big Angel Sanctuary meetup at Otakon!

>>3148525
Awe, I was looking forward to seeing you and your boyfriend there. >: Alexiel/Lucifer is one of my favorite couples from that series.

</random Lucifer who'll be at the gathering>

It's not perfect by any means but I really do love the character and it was my best work yet...I'm such a novice XD

Yui Uzuki from Xenogears.

>>3147222
I envy your vinyl sewing talent!

>>3147057
Yeah, she knows. You do realize she lurks /cgl/ too, right?

...dip my pen in this ink

Chocolove from Shaman King

...dip my pen in this ink

Chocolove from Shaman King

Disregard last post, wifi acting up.
Disregard that last post, wifi acting up.

Still not finished but I like it still.

>>3150528

And this is when I realize how my hair is sticking out =3= It was late in the day.

I still really love how this photoshoot turned out.

This is definitely one that I've put the most work into.

>>3146970
ADORABLE Nabiki!

>>3147843
Seconding all the comments: awesome Emeraldas.

I wonder if this is really my best costume. photoninja did an awesome job on the photo though, my faaav.

Also this. May not be the best costume ever or the rarest, but it it damn fun to wear.

>>3146970
holy shit Nabiki :O

its too bad i thought she was a total bitch, but hey :D nice cosplay

>absolute BEST photo of your BEST cosplay you can find
Sadly those two are mutually exclusive so have this instead.

>>3150798
Just so you know, I love you. Your T-Elos is my favorite.

>>3148215
Thank you!

>>3146943
I really loved this photo. It's hard for me to make a real decision but this costume took some real work and i've gotten some fantastic photos of it.

Hmmm... This one is based on popular vote (and you can hardly see me!)

>>3150934
OH GOD THE HI-RES BACK PIMPLES.


GET THEM AWAY.

>>3150939
IMO my best costume/best picture

>>3150940
Couldn't care less. that stage of puberty is over and my back is much cleaner. I hate being oily but my skin's cleared up vastly since jan 09. DEAL WITH IT ANON! SUFFER YOU FUCKERS <3

I know in the future I'll be doing better work, but really, this was my baby and the focus of a lot of research, time, and money. This is my favorite shot of it from my favorite photog.

>>3147393
This is FUCKWIN!

>>3148396
You fucking ruled that costume! I can't wait to start on my falcon

Errr, my absolute best cosplay was a commission, but other than that...this one, I guess. (barring the hat. ignore the freakin' hat).

>>3150969

(The commission, which is vastly superior and all that...)

>>3150840

Upon opening this image, I was taken with an inexplicable urge to sing "A Man's Gotta Do".

So I did.

You are a brill Dr. Horrible.

I really don't have many good cosplays. I need to work on that.

gotta say OP, I love this thread. I've been trying to get people here to do this since before I was a tripfag.

pic related, it's my Augusta Vladica. There are no 'official' pictures, this is just a WIP. I have so many more miles to go on it...literally...

>>3151035

Is there moar? 8D 8D

>>3148396

Holy-- I remember you from LVSupercon! Sup

>>3149879 YOU ARE MY GODDAMN HERO

>>3150467

Yay, Kai!!!

I loooove this one <3<3<3

>>3150946
amazing. there's no other word for it.

>>3151069
>>3150840
BTW I am totally willing to bring the Hammer to Youma if your willing to bring the Horrible.

>>3151119

...is the hammer your penis?

>>3151142
Well....that to

/sigh

It's not exactly correct, but it's still a work in progress I guess.

This is one of my favourite photos of my pyramid head cosplay, with a friend as dead nurse :3

Haters gonna hate

>>3151238
Holy shit, awesome

No more?
c´mon people

I freakin' love Kaname!

>>3151304
You aren't Kaname.

bump

Even tough no one does recognise the costume. It`s my all time favourite.

>>3151356 It's gorgeous - what's it from?

>>3151356 Is this a lovely Kozi I see?

>>3151369

Thanks.
It`s Közi from the band Malice Mizer. Which less people seem to recognise nowadays, between all the oshare and gazette stuff.

>>3151356
I knew it was Közi immediately.
Is it really that bad with the new J-Rock kids nowadays?

>>3151441

I think yes, even tough I don`t know what is going on atm, because I don`t have anything to do with the scene anymore. But the last thing I know, it was all about oshare and unknown indie bands, which sound and look all the same.

>>3151055

>>3148373
Your costume is like 123123123 times better than Etaru's! ::thumbs up::

>>3151148
You're a fucking stud bro. umpfff.

I am impressed /cgl/. Less sweaty neckbeards and fatties that I thought it would be.

>>3151940
lol, you fag, that's a screencap from the actual Dr. Horrible video.

>>3147269
Aw man, me too! I think we had the same Seishirou too, hahahaha. =)

I guess it's this one.

>>3151947
lol I love it. Cept it's inaccurate cos he's D: when the blood comes out.

>>3151947
that's just.. just so full of fucking win.

>>3152001
you're a dirty, nasty manslut.

>>3152011

ty; though I'd prefer the whole community not know these things.

>>3152018
At least you're honest but shit man, get your STD treated. Seriously, herpes isn't sexy (you need to take pills for it...)

>>3146970
dirty white girl is a skank whore

>>3152020

lol it's a good thing I don't have herpes or half the con scene would be itchy

(not that they aren't already)
