The cosplayers?

I’m here, but I think I’m the only one to have posted in the last 4 months. I just make a couple cosplays per year as a hobby, so I don’t really have much to post. And asking for cosplay help seems pointless. Here I could wait a week for one response, whereas on instagram I’ll get 5 different ways to fix my issue in an hour

reddit had some decent cosplay discussion, but as far as i can tell, most of the community is just on instagram (and some youtube)

Hi-Fi Rush was hands down my favorite game of last year. Such a beautiful and joyful game! I even made a cosplay of Chai

social media that focuses on displaying your personal image is a scourge on humanity

I get what you’re saying, but I think that’s kinda reductive. When I see a picture on Facebook of my uncle on his dirt bike all smiles after winning a race, I think that’s a positive and fruitful use of social media.

And personally, I like sharing a picture of a cosplay I made, hopefully to help someone else who might be on a similar creative path. Or at least to discuss creative processes.

I guess this is my actkually moment, but I think your assessment is off.

I’ve made a few costumes, and worn them them to a few cons. Looks like she could unbutton the shirt, undo the belt buckle and pants, and basically take the whole thing off down to the upper thighs. Like you would a jumpsuit with a front zipper.

Hopefully she at least has a hotel room nearby, because doing that in a public restroom could get harrowing lol

Yeah I like making costumes. It’s creative, hands-on, it gets me away from a screen (3D modeling aside), and it still intersects with my nerdy interests like video games or sci-fi and fantasy worlds.

And as a bonus, I get to wear it to nerdy costume parties when it’s done!

Oh this was at DragonCon 2023!

Edit: Oh dang never mind, I see dtjaaaam’s 2017 watermark. Well this costume was at 2023 also haha
