Bumping this thread because I'll be home in about an hour as well and I'll be making the cosplay all day, and then heading to ACen tomorrow. Only one sleep deprived to day to make this with nothing started.

I wonder if McDonalds uniforms are still red, and if they'd even let me have one. They're a bunch of different colors, aren't they.

Thanks, I've not seen this before.
>I will be doing tutorials for trimmed capes or double-layered capes (or capes that have different coloured layers) at a later date, as well as a proper tutorial on collared capes.
Has she fulfilled this yet?

Looking myself like a normal, rational person has told me the answer is no.

>>6845127
Did a quick Ebay check for ya and there are plenty of red ones, in plenty of sizes. The average cost seems to be about 20$.

When someone's selling something at a stupid price on the comm sales
And they repost
and repost
And never lower the price and won't accept offers or haggling
and reposts
etc
and then whines that nobody wants to buy their stuff.

Gosh, wonder why. I mean, what you charge for something is your own business, but don't be surprised if nobody buys your worth-$150 dress for $300

I'm not cool, but I will turn up just to ruin things and ensure that "he" turns up. And yes I roughly know where to look to find "him".

I'm working at expo again so my plan is desperately work ever hour I can until next thursday then work like a machine at the event. Expos are fuuuuuuuuuuun.

Had a crisis with my Nana cosplay. You know that bit of hair that comes out just in front of a skin top to cover the rubbery bit? Yeah... guess where I decided to cut the hair off. Herp. Managed to fix it up though and the wig is done now, so just gotta paint my Equius shirt and I'l all set.

Nothing wrong with fabric glue. I use it for gluing on really thin ribbons, flatback rhinestones, and tiny applique that would be otherwise difficult to machine sew. I don't recommend using it to put together a full garment though. That would look awful and would probably take more time to dry than it would take to just stitch it together.

>>6845067
Does it show through the ribbons? Like where you applied the glue?
I, as an idiot when I was younger, once used super glue to glue a ribbon onto another and it looked awkward because you could see the dots of where I applied the glue, plus it felt "hard" on those spots.
I really think it would be too difficult to sew the two ribbons together (they're about a yard long) so I'm trying to find other alternatives of putting them together.

Aah, I am so happy I managed to grab all of these the first time the went up for sale! (short jsk in blue, long jsk in ivory, and skirt in red)
They are honestly my favorite pieces of clothing I own, and they managed to end up at my door on my birthday, which made it even better!
I really, really, reallllllllly want to/see someone do a historically-inspired coord with these, I think it could look awesome if done right.

>>6844255
A historic coord would be really interesting. I'm wondering though which period of history it would be based around. I'm working on one with my long grey JSK, based around kind of 8th/9th century fashion.

>>6844058
I fell in love with the blue but after I ordered it and started looking at the other colourways, I started to regret it! I feel like I opted for the good looking, charismatic girl but ignored the cute, meek glasses girl and the withdrawn but sexy kuudere.

I always - always get surprised at the amount of itas. There is so much information out there nowadays, people should be able to do better. Same with all the bad cosplayers.

>>6845102
People just don't look up that information.
I have a friend and she's getting into cosplay as well as lolita, but it would never occur to her to google 'lolita rules' or 'how to make a good cosplay'.
Instead she just looks at galleries of pretty cosplaying girls and tries to make her makeup and hair look as nice as them with her store-bought messes.She doesn't even know there are rules and no subtle hinting can fix it.

People don't really realise until someone tears into them that they're even doing wrong, the internet is full of asspats from people that don't know any better themselves.

>>6843800
This doesn't seem to be rare. I knew a guy that was vaguely subtle about how he wanted me to cosplay her for sex and I would have totally done it.
But... got a boyfriend at that time. Oh well.

I don't mind it so much. Hell, I did a "slutkini" cosplay once, though I've since moved onto more serious stuff.

But trying to justify it as, "it's just a creative reimagining of the character!" is bullshit, and if you believe you're being creative by throwing on hot topic fishnets and a bandeau or some shit, you're seriously deluded.

>beethy complaining about girls in skimpy costumes
>literally took the pictures of Yas' bikini KOS-MOS

>>6845071
your point is invalid. he complained about people taking a design and changing it.
that Kos-Mos design is unchanged.

I'm planning on cosplaying a human version of sn0wmwan (with coat and cigarette holder), and I have my wig, hat, coat, etc.
I just need some help on two things.

1. Shoes. What kind of shoes should I be looking for? I've been looking for pointy shoes (that look like the end is an elongated < ) as those resemble her feet, but I can't find any plain ones locally that fit. What other shoes would suit her? I'm guessing black heels.

2. Makeup. Green lipstick, or black? Grey/black/white facepaint, or none? Smoky eyes?

I'm kind of basing what I'm doing off the 20s, as I remember something about the felt/midnight crew being based off that era (the wig I bought is as close to 20s style as I could find and I'm going to give her one of those curls like in Gatsby).

Thank you for any help!

>>6844545
the spikes look kind of stiff and that piercing looks trashy as hell
still looks better than 99% of the trickster dirk wigs i've seen, though

>>6845085
Curly!!

May i request the link for the hat with ears and the big curly wig?

I mean, bands need to make their money, but i know what you mean...
I honestly blame tumblr. because of them, a lot of things are getting more popular and faster than usual, not just some vk bands, but a lot of fandoms in general.

I support Mejibray right now. I can only support one band because i need to eat, but i dont mind buying their stuff because i absolutely love Tsuzuku (Genki since Vanessa) so... yeah
