a little bit of CGL little bit of TG, was there today, will be tomorrow

Literally just got home about an hour or so ago, was in Karina all day today. I didn't get to take any pictures which I don't feel too bad, seeing as I was only able to attend today. I'd have to say a good third of the attendees were Homestuck people and A LOT of Adventure Time.

I will keep posting all weekend.

>>5507533
Was a lot of it anime? Younger crowd?

Today was a good mix of everything.

>>5507746
Ahhh cool. Last year was damn near kiddie corral, so I was worried. Going tomorrow.

Will be there tomorrow and Sunday, my first time actually cosplaying for a con.

>>5507087

I'm jealous! I want to go to but couldn't make it this year!

Wish I could go, but can't. Well, some professors and students from my college have a booth; if anyone sees the Ringling booth grab a free comic.

I can't wait to go tomorrow! I'm fixing up my costume right now!

>>5507847
what are you gonna be?

bump

last year as with this the adults want to see Stan Lee.

Rolling out soon, will probably be there at about 1.

I'll be going by myself, so if anyone sees me, please say hello!

>>5507533
You looked adorable in Karina! I'm really glad that I got to run into you! It was a bit of a mad house yesterday, so I can only imagine what today is going to be like.

I hope everyone that goes today and tomorrow has a blast! Sadly I have to work both days but I'm just glad I got to go yesterday and get the items I did (pic related, there was only ONE booth that had T&B figurines, this upset me greatly!)

>>5508576
Girl, your Cinderella, HNNNNNNNNNNNGH!!!! There's actually already a few photos of you in it up on Flickr

errbody don't forget about the Denny's meetup! Kiwi told me it's at 8, but i'm probably going to get there around 7/730 so i can be out and ready for the afterparties. SEE YOU THERE

>>5508596
Are there really?! Ahhh, I gotta go check them out. I was really happy with how it turned out, so I'll be wearing it again today. We've got so many poofy dresses in our hotel room that it's taking us all a lot longer to get ready than we thought!

Hey guys. I'm hopefully at the right Denny's. It's the one with outdoor seating right? Anyway, I'm here as Saber Alter in her gothic loli dress. If you guys are on your phones or anything, come find me?

Any pictures from Saturday's event ready to be shared?

>Saturday

>Shitton of Blecch
>Shitton of Nurutu
>Sailor Scouts everywhere
>Lots of Guy Fawkes masks and at least one Reddit head
>A shocking amount of Miku/Len/Rin/Kaito and even Meiko cosplay
>Jedi, Deadpools, SPARTANs, TF2 characters, Dr. Rockso, fucking cawadooty,
>39045823469346 Edward Elrics, most of them female (Fuck you, Vic)
>Not a single other character from FMA cosplayed


>ONE Inuyasha, ONE Wolfwood, ONE Lucy, and *no* Cowboy Bebop or Eva
>Oh-god-I'm-old

The only good cosplays were obscure ones. There was one great Lady Atris, one great Eliza Cassan, the Lucy cosplay had good effort in it...

I think they are guys. I'm impressed that they look pretty good.

>>5510169
i know that feel, bro

>>5510169
Also i have one thing to ask. I mean, i could ask this in /co/, /v/, or /a/... but strangely i thinkt /cgl/ might be best to ask.

I haven't been to MegaCon in like a decade and the anime spillover, if i recall, was from Manga bleeding into the Comics focus of the convention.

But now everything and everything tangentially related to the culture is being represented in cosplay in this MegaCon. Like im also seeing Creepers and moogles and Phoenix Wrights and Zelda etc. etc.

Some guy walking around with a sign saying "I used to be a cosplayer like you..." and he had a foam arrow tied to his knee
Plus you have all those Homestuck horns all over the place.
Did half of MegaCon's just become a big ol' meetup spot for cosplayers of any kind or what?

>>5510172
I'm not surprised. I lived in Orlando for the past 7 months, and I think I've met more gay people than straight, and a lot of them do drag... but then again I work in entertainment.
I think those two are better than a lot of PSG cosplayers I've seen

>>5510172
wow. i actually thought stocking was a girl with a manface.
Now I'm impressed. these are good! Expecially panty.

>>5510172
panty: YES
stocking all my no

>>5510169

Pretty harsh, bro. A lot of the saturated series you've listed had at the *bare minimum* two great cosplayers.

>>5510169
I actually saw a Barry the Butcher while I was there. And a rather low-quality Spike.

AND THOSE FUCKING GUY FAWKES MASKS, I WANTED TO RIP THEM OFF AND STOMP ON THEM.

>>5510245
You new to FL? A big group of them show up at every con with a boombox. For like the past 3-4 years at least. People seriously still get mad over them?

>>5510194
Yes.

/a/ here
This year was disappointing. I mean they had a huge open space and room for the artists gallery in the one show room. I mean how does one lose 2/3rd of their venders. Also why wasnt the food court venders not open? I guess it has been a rough year. Also i wanted to punch those guy fawx masks faggots to the ground. And i saw rarely good cosplay. So.

How strict were they with the badges? I'm thinking of going tomorrow. I got one last year, but it seemed you could walk around almost anywhere w/o a badge except the dealers room...

>>5510329
Well it was the same with badges this year as anyother year.

>>5510244
>Two great cosplayers
Ehh call me a snooty prick but Naruto and Bleach are popular enough that you can buy well-made costumes, rather than DIY or pay exorbitant fees on a custom tailor. So i didn't really give them points.

In line of the Oh-god-i'm-old current...
I *did* see Naruto themed family... the father and mother were dressed as Minato Namikaze and Uzumaki Kushina ...
And they had their six year old kid dressed as Naruto...

Fuckin' weirded out man

>>5510338
Ok... Well is the dealers room worth buying the badge for this year?

>>5510343
Hm, true. I can't fault that line of thinking. It's just a shame to see those few who do put in an effort to cosplay AND look good just get bunched in with a "it's an overdone series, ain't no biggie".

>>5510352
Honestly no. They lost about 2/3rd of their venders from last year. shame.

>>5510356
I'll grant you that. I don't deny that i might be overlooking a legit cosplay with effort into it and assuming it was store-bought

But then again...
>Nurutu/Blecch
It all kinda cancels out...

>>5510373
... wow. Maybe I'll just stay home then? Sound's like it's not worth the gas.

>Raging at EFG/Fawkes people

I omitted the fact that i saw at least 3 individual full-body fursuiters...
It was like a mini AnthroCon when you couple that with all the ones that went halfway..

>>5510390
Yeah pretty much was a waste for me. Hey least i took a friend and got figurine.
Also yeah this is pretty much what happened.

chillin in the hotel room now

got brent spiner's autograph, friend got a kamen rider knight figuarts plus some stuff for her costume. all in all not terrible, saw a few really sweet outfits

absurd amounts of homestuck, though.

gundam meetup is still going down tomorrow, right?
2pm under the banner

>>5510454
Thank you for the heads up.

Just got back from megacon
Who has more of this girl?
Vampirella

>>5510713
I don't know, but I'm lready in love with her for it.

>>5507756
This year *is* a kiddie corral.
I saw a bunch of kids playing Red Rover on the grass outside the building as i left lol

Another one we got...
Did anyone get some One piece group shots from megacon?

>>5510762
We saw Duck duck goose.
WE were playing red rover!!!!

>>5510713

OP here. Dumping the pics from my camera now to get them up soon.

Who won in the anime sushi costume contest?

>>5510825
she's not in it.

Did anyone see a Tumblr-tan?

>>5510845
I know Kiwi won in one category, and another girl at the meetup whose name I forgot.

hai gais

meetup was really fun. gonna go drink some of this shit now though. hope the pictures are uploaded soon. :3

>>5510884
..........................
DAMMIT....... IF I WASN'T ENGAGED, I WOULD JUMP HER INSTANTLY IN THAT COSPLAY!! <3 <3 <3 So sad I missed this......

>>5507506

I watched this dude leaving today after the floor closed. That is to say, I heard him first. Just this ominous BOOM, BOOM, BOOM that echoed throughout the hall above the din. Well fucking played, sir.

In other news this year there was a serious resurgence in Misty Cosplay. Shapely goddamn UNF UNF UNF Misty Cosplay. I will just assume they were all over 18+ so I feel better about all of the boners.

>>5510678

OP here again. A batch upload process has started for Saturday.

OP here yet again. http://www.flickr.com/photos/sandr0ck2003/collections/72157623477055538/
For all my pics from Friday and Saturday

>>5510913
holy crap that's awesome.

bump

Any Sunday pictures?

Con opinions?

any more vampirella?

who's got two thumbs and went around in a guy fawkes mask for two days??? thaaat's right! me! the cancerman! XDDDD no, but seriously I met some fags who wore masks(yeah I brought mine too, but at least I lurk okay) and asked them where they lurked and they looked at me like I'm retarded. people reeeeally shouldn't wear something they don't understand. that kind of ignorance pisses me off. all that aside, the con was mediocre at best. I saw my first Ragnarok Online cosplay which threw me for a loop of excitement. and also a Doc Scratch c: but yeah, I'm thinking of doing a male Mindfang soon...idk. back to tumblr

>>5513706
<3 I was that RO cosplay.

I feel loved.

Hey guys, just got home! Had a lot of fun at the meetup and the con! Hope to see you all again next year!

I really enjoyed it this year, definitely moreso then I did last year.
I went for two days, both homestuck. The Saturday photoshoot was insane, I'm amazed the girl running it managed to hold it together. When the staff asked the photoshoot to move out of the building, I think she handled it pretty well, in unison with the march of an odd sum two hundred people going through the main hall.
I was pretty disappointed by the panels. I ended up not buying tickets and mostly loitered with some old friends.

Slowly resizing and dumping the few photos I took.

Loving this group, though from what I understood they were hired professionals or something?

This guy won best craftsmanship at the costume contest.

Have sum Young Avengers

I really wanted these guys to win best Vidya costume. I can't remember who actually won.

Here's some batfamily

>>5513980

That Dhalsim was amazing. Every pose he struck was goddamned statuesque.

Have some more DC

>>5508581
DUDE, does anywhere sell those things online?

All dem Marvels

Here is a bit of Disney

This Lana was great

Derp those were the only photos I took for the weekend.

Anyone have a photo of the Cinderella who did the period-accurate fanart dress? It looked absolutely amazing!

Anyone else have any more pics of the GI Joe crew?

All mine are up on the original link up at the top for the whole weekend

Did anyone get that art book Syaoran and Sakura on Saturday?

>>5510913
Is she a regular on /cgl/? I ran into her in the dealers room, and had a quick chat with her. I was so happy to find a Tiger and Bunny cosplayer that I forgot to ask for a picture.

Did anyone snap photos of Shino from .hack?

>>5510906
Purple drank.

Would have liked to have seen a better variety in cosplay. (the Homestuck and Hetalia got old fast)
Did have a blast at the meetup.
Also will never ever eat a hot dog again in my life.

>>5514080
Yep it's Kiwi.

I had a great time! My two new costumes were super fun to wear and actually were pretty comfortable and I met and hung out with great people. No complaints from me!

I saw an excellent Quailman there, but didn't have a camera on me. Anyone have any pictures of that guy?

Does anyone have any pics of the Girl Boba Fet and Girl Storm Troopers?! I saw a lot of Gender Bending on costumes this year~ Was a lot of fun!

Tons of photos here: http://www.thegeekbot.com/2012/02/19/megacon-2012-day-2-saturday-pictures/#more-86

>>5514076

They were amazing! My favorite costumes at the con. I didn't know that was Kiwi.

>>5514153
I saw someone post a photo of him, but over in the Katsucon thread for some reason. He looked awesome!

>>5514161
Kiwi?
Haha, no that was my gf and I.

Haven't seen a single picture of us yet though :(

>>5514167
Someone's looking for you or your girlfriend's info on the Facebook group Florida Cosplayer's unite.

>>5514174
No, we were the tsubasa chronicles artbook Syaoran and Sakura not the Bunney and Tiger. lol

>>5513706
Stay on tumblr please. I fucking hate you children.

Gundam guy here. Sorry I couldn't make any of the meetups. I was in my suit from 9am till almost 7pm on Saturday and was absolutely exhausted by the end of it. That said my first megacon was a blast! Sadly the dealers room was smaller than I was lead to believe.

Iron cardboard robot cosplay was a blast! If my teammates are reading thanks so much for the awesome event. Even though we didn't win I had a ton of fun.

Convention center cons are exhausting in that Gundam suit. I may have to limit it to hotel cons in the future.

>>5510884
That was me, I was the orange viking.

>>5510913
This is just about the best thing ever. Where'd you get those pictures?

Anyway, the cgl meetup was great. I love you guys so much. Free pizza boxes for all courtesy of Derpypac 2012. And here is our glorious swag

>>5514229
GUNDAM! GUNDAM! Yeah that was a brilliant costume contest.

>>5514167

stumbled upon this while looking for photos of my own cosplay lol. you guys were amazing, congrats

>>5514272
Yay! Thank you!
I had taken my claws off at that point, they were too heavy and my hands hurt so much lol

Awesome suit! was really really cool!

>>5514303
>that RBD
Why the fuck were there so many RBD cosplayers and so few Pinkie Pies. Not fair.

>>5514329
Ponies in general were terrible, it was a great con but god damn be original people.
I saw so many girls just dressing as a halfassed Finn from Adventure time, only ONE girl actually went as Fiona.

>>5514303
Someone tell that fat bitch to move.

Trying to see that RX-78-2.

>>5514329
>>5514341
She was actually pretty cool and was helping temjin. Also there were too many ponies in general.

>>5514340
You'd pretty much have to be clinically insane to cosplay a pony and attract Brony attention to yourself, which is why mostly only hambeasts cosplay them.

Also, I was considering dressing as Finn because I have blonde hair but after I got there I'm glad I chose Malfoy instead. Finn was everywhere and I would not compare.
Speaking of Draco, what's with Tom Felton showing up out of costume and unshaven? If I were asking 40 bucks from HP fans for a single picture I'd at least dress up and shave for them.

I agree! Get that fat ass outta the way!!!

>>5514341
Thats my girl, so kindly stuff it.

>>5514340
I saw a metric shit ton of Fionas. I don't know where you were. Also, I saw a little kid as Finn, it was about the best thing ever.

And did anyone get pictures with little kids? It's the best feeling in the world, let me tell you all. You get to pose like an idiot and make their day. I loved seeing so many happy kids there. Sure some were throwing fits, but I'm sure three minutes ago they were having fun.

Guilty as one of the fionnas there, wasn't expecting such an influx of AT, yo.
Also sorry if I scared anyone off acting in character all day.
The little kid Finns were fucking adorable, as were the little kids that kept running up to me asking for hugs and if I was Fionna.
Also babies in costumes everywhere this year.
I surfed the Megacon tag on Tumblr and am seeing so many amazing costumes that I somehow missed in person.
Most of what I saw was homestuck :/

Mooore~

>>5514539
Just got back from the whole thing, will post a few pics for the hell of it.

Starting with a pretty good Ed

>>5514668
Menma

>>5514690
Neku

>>5514701
This guy was amazing. There was another Dovahkin dude running around, but that one was scrawny and had a shitty costume in comparison.

JUST GOT BACK AND TIRED AS FUCK BUT GONNA POST THIS BEFORE I PASS OUT ZZZZZZ

>>5514373
I was there as Chris Redfield and I came across a RE family. Dad was Wesker but his 2-3 year old son was also Chris. When the kid wanted to get a picture with me I think it made both of our days.

>>5514758

>dat filename

WE NEED MORE HARDCORE CP

I dressed as Ash for the con and I've got a few pics saved up. I'll dump 'em here.

>>5514758
Saber Alter/Ariel here. The meetup was really fun. I definitely wasn't expecting almost twenty people.

And that's the last pic I've got. What a fantastic con that was. I'm sad that the next one I've got is Florida Supercon. Three long months. God dammit.

>>5514758
its a shame I had to leave early on Saturday. Sunday's Gundam meetup was.. less impressive.

>>5514758
This was way too much fun. Props to kiwi for ordering the pizza and everyone else for chipping in. $10 deal awww yeah.

>>5514805
Holy butts I'm an oldfag.

>>5514843
SCREAMING
SCREAMING
SCREAMING

I know it's just the jacket but still AHHHHHHH

This was about the cutest engineer ever.

>>5516057

She was adorable. There were so many cute girls there, it's ridiculous.

I got back from NY the night before the con, so I did a Misty that I was far from pleased with. Ah well. Still waiting on Metro to pull out the big guns. ;)

>>5516057
um... is the guy in the background supposed to be itachi in a banana suit? I think i can see a naruto headband on him.

I had a lot of fun at megacon this year. Unfortunately I barely got to see anything from the dealers room since I had arms that were bigger than me as a prop. If anybody caught us we were the big Black Rock Shooter group on Friday. Then on Saturday it was just Black Rock Shooter and Strength. Though I would not be surprised if nobody saw us since our weapons were so painful we were at the con for no more than 3 hours at a time. Still had fun regardless.

Saw this one on Reddit

>>5515081
Every autistic perma virgin who saw the movie bought the jacket. Chill.

>>5516057
there was a whole female TF2 group that was pretty sweet.

>>5516248
Amazing Kabuto on Sunday. It was a scarily old guy under the helmet, but his entire costume was near flawless.

>>5514758
I couldn't be in the picture because I was being a derp off camera. Thanks for feeling me up Kiwi you make all my dreams come true♥

anyone have pictures of the Mass Effect costumes? I saw a Garrus, FemShep, and Liara. I was expecting more since the voice actor was there and the game comes out in a few weeks.

>>5516334
Were you the Tiger & Bunny cosplayer? I made a joke to my boyfriend about you cosplaying Rufus since he plays a lot of Street Fighter and Rufus wears a kill bill uniform. I'm not sure if you got the joke at all, but I hope you weren't offended!

Any Sailor Moon pictures? There was quite a few scouts this year.

I didn't see one Yoko this year!

>>5516481
I was in a little red and black dress that was too short with black leggings and I was snuggling on a tall girl that just happened to walk by

The girl in the tiger and bunny cosplay might have been Kiwi?

>>5516624
Ah, okay. Wrong person then. And Kiwi was out of her cosplay at the time, in rave gear, if I remember correctly. I was thinking of the girl cosplaying the dragon king-fu superhero from T&B. I really need to keep watching it.

>>5516057
lol that's my friends girlfriend. We headed out to Dave and Busters later. She took her shirt off was pretty badass.

I can't say this con is really worth going to, the costumes aren't up to par, venders sell total shit and the panels are all pretty meh.

I spent most of the time in the card room playing Magic. Even that wasn't great people are bad. Went 4-0 in two headed giant without trying.

>>5516681
If the dealers aren't selling things to your taste you're at the wrong convention. I find great deals on comics and manga. $10 trades? $5 manga? Shit's absolutely great. What are you into that you can't find something there?

I can understand if you're upset about not finding good figures, I never really find any big figures I like. But besides that Megacon has everything.

Less bitterness, more pictures.

>>5516674
correction, that's not her. just called her over to check this out. looks just like her though

>>5516709

This. I bought around 70 comics and spent $50, and was seeing $3 manga everywhere.

I admit the animu stuff wasn't that cheap but Megacon is a central comic con, so I'm assuming the more popular/cheaper animu vendors went to Katsu

I really enjoyed this convention. The crowd, minus the overflow of Homestuck, was pretty great. I met a lot of very awesome people and just had fun hanging out; good atmosphere, I think. I was extremely annoyed and pleased by some changes to the dealer room. I hate that the entrance was a little hole on the left. So obnoxious to get in, and I also feel like they wasted a lot of space with the immediate open area. I feel like that back area should have been for signings and photo-ops. The rest of the layout was great, I liked that it was spread out more and really gave more room to breathe in between booths. I spent more time in the dealer-room because I could actually move around. The lines for photo-ops got ridiculously long, and sometimes got in the way of traffic, right in the middle of the whole thing, which is why that area should have been in the open space.

Besides that, though.. Probably my favorite Megacon so far.

>Go to megacon for Saturday only
>Sick as hell, bored as fuck, not cosplaying
>Everything in the dealers room is overpriced
>I own almost everything I'm interested in that isn't
>don't feel like going to any panels
>Fuck this
>Check every SH Monsterarts Godzilla in the dealers room and buy the only one that doesn't have derp eyes
>go to two panels and leave

My con experience.

Also $80 T&B figuarts? $50 Hyper Kabuto? Fuck that.

>>5510172

They're girls.

http://www.cosplay.com/costume/414523/

A pretty impressive handmade Torakaka costume. Don't know why they didn't compete in the costume contest.

W40K Steel Legion. Nice to see something other than homesuck cosplays.

had a blast...may be my last mega as i'm moving to the west coast....

loved the artist alley this year and mostly bought stuff there as opposed to the dealers. also loved the expanded layout and wider walkways. for the first time i was able to go in the dealer's room on saturday, even in antoinette.

heard a little about the costume contest....did anon like all the costumes that entered? winners?

>>5517443

I am surprised no one posted this awesome cosplay.

>>5510713
She was the girlfriend of an artist in the alley, she wore it for about an hour to boothbabe his art. She was also in her late 40's I'd guess...but doable for the obvious reasons....

http://www.flickr.com/photos/dtjaaaam/collections/72157629404785069/

Because he was too cool.

>>5518005
>>5517549
Thank you for the compliments guys ^^ Gotta give a big shoutout to my GF for helping me get in and out of that costume on Saturday. She passed up the MLP group shoot for me so I could get to pre-judging ; ; and even bought me a Super Robot Chogokin Dai-Guard. <3

>>5518132
Yeah, I saw her.

One thing I found funny, I'll upload it later. You were in that upper balconyish area, doing this "COME AT ME BRO" pose while she was holding your shield/gun behind you. So basically a COME AT ME BRO gundam with an armed MLP.

Allow me to say - I lolled.


Also, fuck that Vega who was chilling with you. You were chill, he was annoying.

I'm the Link here, and the Navi and Zelda were nice.

>>5518132
I'm so sad I didn't get to see you fully suited up, but thanks for letting me oogle you before our cosplay panel on Sunday. Congrats on the win, too!

This is a friend of mine who was Victorique from GoSick in an alternate costume.

>>5518201
How did your panels go anyways? Did a lot of people show up?

>>5518162
rofl I gotta see that pic that sounds hilarious! Im glad someone got a video of my earlier encounter with a furry group.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fPYYIqOcr3k&context=C3af6b11ADOEgsToPDskJq8RHv8_J4F7Sg6KG0NUmG

Turned around and there were suddenly like 6 guys in fur suits I turned and ran lol then hung and shook my head as one of them danced the robot in front of me. My GF then set my costumes speaker to LMAFO and dancing commenced. Was hilarious ><!

What was the Vega doing that bothered you? Seemed chill to me but I cant see too well in the helmet or hear too well so I miss alot.

The guy in the creeper getup on sunday ticked me off. I was rocking the helmet gun and shield in casual clothes to relax the last day. He and me face off while waiting for the dealer area to open in what I thought was just going to be a photo op and then crashes full force into my shield breaking the V-crest on my helmet. I put down my gun and beat him with my saber a couple a times, probably a bit harder than I should have.... Shoved him with my foot too... was tempted to just kicked him strait over honestly.

R2D2 Guys were total bros and hooked me up with some super glue to repair the helmet since I had already checked out of the hotel and packed everything up in the car for the trip back.

If creeper guy is reading sorry for overreacting and sorry again if I hurt or offended you at all. Was very tired and hurting and th crest breaking kinda made me snap a bit.

>>5518208
Unfortunately not. We were shoved into the veeeeeeeery back of the hallway in the last room that was the anime hallway, I guess? It was super hard to find if you didn't know where to look. Also, from what I hear, Tom Felton's panel was scheduled the same time as ours on Friday. That killed the attendance a bit, too. Hopefully next year will be better!

>>5518215
skip to about 3:30 in the vid

>>5518218
I got some good ideas from that panel. That suggestion about using a cheap dress form as a base for armor made light blubs start appearing spontaneously over my head. I love talking shop about props and armor.

>>5518215
>>5518215
I watched you smack-down the creeper too. You were laying into him with your sword, man.

But yeah, i watched him over-aggro on you first - And given his outfit vs yours - Just saying I wouldn't ever even think about bumping into that gundam awesomeness.
R2d2 bros were fucking awesome.


Pic related.

>>5518218
this....but sunday's panel went super awesome.....lots of great questions and discussion!

i really hated how the anime stuff was hidden down that hall...apparently people had a hard time figuring out where to go for costume contest stuff too....which doesn't encourage participation...

Does anyone here have any photos of people as the Punisher? My friend went as him on day 2-3, but I cant find any so far in other's collections.

In return, some silly Links.

This Margery was awesome and really nice. I wish I had more than my phone to take pictures with though, this really doesn't do her justice.

I just find it weird that Janet judged last year and then entered in won this year. Dont get me wrong, her Odile is heads and sholders above most. Just...sketchy. Also I know, all anime sushi contest are shit.

>>5519018

Good sir, that is not velour you're wearing. You are doing it wrong. Brannigan would only wear velour.

>>5519084
Anyone know how this guy made/where he got his mask? I have to make this costume for my fiance but have no idea where to start :3

>>5519093
This Thor was flawless.

Apologies if I repost anything, cant be assed to keep upscrolling to check.

Did anybody get the pic of the Raziel from Soul reaver? D:

>>5519050
is this her?

>>5519158
yes!! Loved that!

>>5519158
Surprised she didn't make it out of trashbags like she did with her Kraehe.

>>5519224
That's a little something called getting better from 2 years ago. Not trying to white knight but some people actually try and improve themselves and their costumes so really, chill.

Obligatory: u mad?

>>5519224

>>5519158
Whoa, she's cute.

Why do these threads always seem to turn into hate/love for that girl? Back on track everyone!

I loved seeing all the nostalgia cosplays! The Scooby Gang was amazing!

I can dump what I have resized so far.

The Speed Racer guy was fucking HOT. I would slam him like a screen door.

Had a pretty good time this year at the con, despite having ridiculous trouble with the hotel I was staying at. I meant to only wear my Homestuck cosplay for maybe a day but I ended up in it almost all weekend. It was hotter than I was hoping it would be. Finally got pictures of my Silver cosplay though. Didn't nearly get enough pictures of other people, though.

>>5519588

This motherfucker right here.

I almost came fanboy buckets when i saw Eliza and this chick, Reika from Fatal Frame 3

>>5519798
I dont understand the Black Rock Shooter craze.

>>5519798
I loved this group. Except for one that seemed a bit out of place (cough DM cough) they were reallyc ool to see

>>5519392
....
cause its FL.

My favorite I took this weekend. The sillyness cheered me up.

>>5519588

>mfw that's me.

COME AT ME

>>5520590
Show them your friday outfit and maybe they'll say otherwise D'OHOHOHO

>>5520601

Kiwi I just wanted to say it was great meeting you and you were just as much a bro as you are on /cgl/ and that you rock, don't ever change.

>>5514831
that dude put his hockey stick in his bad and hit like 20 people with it

I didn't go this year but I did get to wait in dat traffic for about an hour. Good god people can't drive in Florida. I watched someone get out of line in front of me, and decide to go the wrong way against traffic. Glad I'm leaving in 3 months.

Definitely my favorite cosplay of the entire con. I didn't have my camera with me, so I was really bummed I didn't get to take a picture of them, but I came home and people had put their picture up everywhere online

>>5519050

Looks like the mod over at some Florida Cosplay tumblr is posting them as they find them.

>>5520621
fffffff YOU TOO MYSTERY ANON~

>>5520776
Is that Konbini-kun? I fucking love you Kiwi, viking/pirate here. I'm so fucking happy you won at the costume contest.

>>5520710
Damn it, why didn't I go on the catwalk? I was way too fucking shy, but still. I may get dressed up now and get a good picture of myself.

>>5513936
FLfag here, that ironman just had a shitton of money and bought the molds for his suit, only thing he did was piece them together. i was hoping he made it but, just another rich guy

>>5519158
i saw her walking around, she attracted alot of attention..i think she deserved it, i just recently got into princess tutu..and it looked really good. :))

>>5520776

Oh! I-it'sum.. T-the girl who was in the suit. I-it's not like I l-like you or anything..

>>5521097
Bought the molds, made the suit, prep, painted, sealed, etc. Good enough for me.

>>5519798
do you have any bigger picture of this? What show is it from? also wasn't the girl w. the big hands in the contest on saturday?

>>5521325
It's from a show called Black Rock Shooter. Heres a picture a photographer took of them and none of them entered the costume contest. There was other Strength cosplayers at the convention.

>>5520887
YES IT IS and you're so freaking epic for recognizing it. And th-thank youu ;//; And WE NEED TO CONNECT SOMEHOW

>>5521125
The suit..? Which one? IDENTIFY YOURSELF

>>5519224

Pretty sure most of that is bought or premade. Looks like a rehearsal tutu with a regular bodice with some rhinestones on it. Still rather see this than her attempt at the old costume.

Anyone see that Sasuke with the actual curse mark tattoo?

>>5521670
Dude I think I have your tumblr, sending you an ask now.

>>5522199
I didn't grab a picture of him, and I am no where near being a fan of the show, but goodness, he was the best Sasuke I've seen at the convention in three years.

I have a few photos, though I lost my camera in the hotel room on Saturday, so I only have Friday and Sunday cosplays

She's adorable!

Want to see more of that Link behind her.

>>5522589
She was extremely nice too! But that link ran off before I could get a photo of him.

>>5522589
Dear god that Bulma is really cute!

>>5522622

>>5522627

>>5522630

>>5522636

>>5522638

>>5522642
Aaand this is all I have. I'm bummed I couldn't get any pictures on Saturday.

>>5522581
I can't figure out who he is supposed to be. My mind keeps going to Ned Stark.

>>5522692
Aragorn, perhaps? He does have the white tree on his bracers, if you look closely.

>>5522706
He didn't say, but he made most of his armor. I think he's just "a soldier from Gondor"

>>5522706
>>5522706
>>5522706
ding ding ding

>>5522706
Lol I was close... in the sense that he was in a movie that also stared Sean Bean.

>>5521810
Thats probally because you know the design is just a tutu and a bodice....
Also I know she was working on an over skirt and didnt get it finished in time. She wanted to enter the contest but b/c she didnt finish the skirt she didnt.

At least hers actually looks like a tutu. Hime no Tokis looks beautiful from pictures (angles!) but in person its really sad and guady looking. and by no means full enough/...thick(?) enough to pass for a real tutu

WHY DOES PRINCESS TUTU BRING OUT ALL THE BITCHES
WHY DOES FL BRING OUT ALL THE BITCHES
WHY MUST THE TWO COMBINE??

>>5523115
Well, she did make it accurate to a "Russian" or "pancake" style tutu. Soooooooo not all tutus are super full and poofy, ya know? It's right on par with what is actually used in productions of Swan Lake.

>>5523147
for some reason the princess tutu fanbase is full of *prima ballerinas* that will throw thousands upon thousands of shitfits if there is anything wrong with your costume and/or if you aren't a real ballerina

every time there is a princess tutu thread on /cgl/ it's full of "i'm a real ballerina and you arent so dont cosplay from the show"

>>5523180
I just dont think its fair to tear down alouette for having a more french style tutu and praise hime no toki when both tutus are accurate.

Nothing will ever appease the cgl primas.

pic related

>>5523199
I can completely understand what you mean. Both of those girls looked stunning, so they should both get equal amounts of praise!

>>5523221
they should just do a shoot or something together becuase the two outfits would sparkle so pretty together and then everyone could just shut up and enjoy the prettiness.

Sounds like a fucking deal.

>>5523221
>>5523229

Agreed. It would be a beautiful shoot.

Pictures of other cosplayers from megacon? This isn't a tutu thread.

>>5520663

what now, Kiwi? WHAT NOW?????

Best Mad Moxxi. There were two, but she was my favorite.

So few pictures in this thread.

Anyone snap any Ash+Misty photos?

>>5522638
Oh god, that's me. I looked worse than I thought.

I've got about 120 pictures, though, starting with this one. Does anyone want a picdump?

>>5524808
Awh, I think you look nice, a little tried maybe, but not bad. And I'm not sure who you're cosplaying but your costume's wicked!

>>5524816
I was trying to be in-character and it flopped terribly. And thank you, I was the Footpad from Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood! The costume was by CosplayMandy but I did some modifications.

Commencing picdump anyway.

>>5524854
Ah! I saw these guys at the W13 Panel, they looked awesome. It's so cool to see a Kim Possible group with not just Kim and Ron.

>>5524824
where's this from then?

>>5524808
I'm the one who took that picture. You caught my eye when you were walking by because you looked cool! Also, my family is crazy for Assassin's Creed hahaha
Don't be so hard on yourself!

>>5524854
These dolts spend more time on cosplay faggotry than they do brushing their teeth. See the homo in the blue for evidence.

>>5524873
Pssst.

No one cares.

>>5524873
your jelly is showing

I'm really disappointed that the only photo I got of the front of the Alien was really blurry. Did anyone else get some good ones?

>>5524824
Anyone know what series this is from?

I just realized the thread is auto-saging.

Should I keep going here, or continue in another thread?

>>5524873
Full face blue makeup always makes teeth appear yellow. Go try it yourself and put on some blue lipstick. No matter how white your teeth are, they will appear yellow next to blue skin.

Anyone know who the cosplayer is? Dayum!

Dumping some more

I lied, going to lunch, then I'll dump.

Moar Adventure Time cosplayers :)

Anyone else get pictures of this Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time group? Opinions?

Time for a new thread, I think, guys.

>>5524591
I.. WELL.....Y-YOU...
