Shiro & Vizu costumes

Please report these. Should be no reason for people to make those kind of unwanted comments. I think he's just referring to how people are calling Tzu hot. AJ's thread (and comics) is more "offensive" than anything directed at Tzu. My comments are just jokes more than anything - I suppose there's a reason why people compare me to House or call me an egotistical bastard. If my comments ever get told they're "too much" or if I notice mine being edited/deleted I'll step down easily

@GeminiJuSa: Cosplayers are pretty relaxed about different body types. My own body is quite feminine too... curvy, and very padded in many places. Big hips too. :P
I've never had bad comments from people when I cosplay, and many have even been encouraging about it. Even dared to do a rather revealing ritualist costume once, although the costume itself was rushed and horrible and I should re-do it at some point. I'm going to agree with this - I'll straight-up admit it, I'm not a thin woman by any means, but that's never stopped me from cosplaying, and I've managed to pull off some fairly revealing costumes, too. So don't worry about it, Gemini, and find something you like. Very, very few cosplayers are judgmental about that sort of thing. I've been cosplaying for 8 years and can count on one hand the number of negative comments about someone's body I've seen.

Aww, Tzu, that looks so good though D: That's such a shame you have to redo it! I hadn't thought of it before, but I guess it makes sense that the handles would be sticking out front for the assassin to reach over with the opposite hand to grab and throw it quickly. There aren't any tricks to remove the glue or tear it and fix/hide any potential damage?


Last Halloween workshop was the first time I've really heard about cosplaying, but I so want to do it now! I was thinking of making a Xandra costume next Halloween (only kinda-Asiany hero plus we share the same name kinda - not on purpose on my part!), but then was thinking it would be such a shame to only wear it 1 day a year . Where do you actually go cosplay? Are there cosplay conventions? My hubby mentioned that one of his coworkers loves cosplay and has a room full of costumes so I may need to have her as my cosplay mentor :O I attend anime conventions My main one is Anime Central (I'm staff there, actually), I'm thinking about trying to hit C2E2 and Wizard World Chicago this year, and my fiance and I are making plans to go to San Diego Comic-Con in July <3

There are tons of various anime/comic/video game/sci-fi conventions around the world, and there's always people cosplaying at them. I've even won a couple awards myself, though Tzu obviously beats me out there I cosplay less now simply because I haven't got the time to work on costumes, but my fiance and I are making plans for an epicly awesome cosplay for ACen next year - he wants to be Ezio from Assassin's Creed 2/Brotherhood, and I'm going to be Caterina Sforza from her portrayal in those games (namely her AC2 version, I like that dress better). It will be amazing, and I can't wait to start on those costumes.

^^' And yea... GW2G has a different community I suppose. That's because we're still the coolest art board out of the two. What what.

If it weren't for you posting that WIP pic, I don't think any of us would have known that the daggers were on backwards. I would say just leave it, but I know how artists can get when they realize they've made a mistake, regardless of how minor it may be.

Still, everything looks really good so far.
