    [Catalog] [Archive]

    /cgl/ is a board for the following:

    • Cosplay
    • Lolita
    • J-fashion
    • Conventions & gatherings
    • Sewing & prop-making
    • Craftsmanship tools/materials & tutorials
    • LARPing
    • Discussing accessories such as wigs/circle lenses/prosthetics/makeup (These must be within the context of the board-related topics listed above; weight loss threads should be kept in /fit/, beauty and fashion generals should be kept in /fa/)

    Our board rules are simple:

    • Thread content must be related to one of the categories covered in the list above. Off-topic threads and replies will be deleted.
    • Singling people out maliciously is not tolerated and will result in a ban. 4chan is not your personal army. The singling out rule applies to vendetta threads and replies being made to attack a specific person, as well as predatory behavior like doxing. Discussing an individual in general isn't against the rules as long as it's done within context of cosplay/lolita/j-fashion.

    5 months of the old thread and not much has happened.
    Summer cons have been and gone and once again everything is fundamentally different. I don’t think we’ll
    Go back to pre lockdown glory.

    ...I just went as Poppy Bros. Jr. for that one. One (1) person recognised it, and that was likely just because they called out the character's name at the masquerade, kek.
    This one is probably going to be a bit more recognisable. Been working on it since Saturday.

    >More broadly most of the bigger fan cons in the UK need serious renewal in their committees, you can see the average attendee age each year and many committees have at some point expressed they are getting "too old" for it or dropping without anyone much younger replacing them this isn't a Kita issue though.

    Hate to say it but it's a generational thing. When anime cons became a proper thing in the 80s-00s attendees were expected to do work and support the con, either by running it, hosting events, volunteering etc. The expectation was that the more you went to cons the more involved you became to support the con/newer fans. Gen X/Millennials were used to making their own fun.

    Zoomers however expect to be passively entertained. Algorithms and instant dopamine hits mean that they don't want to put serious effort in for entertainment, they want it delivered. They'd rather turn up at a con and watch a panel than host one themselves. They want to be in a masquerade but not run one for anyone else.

    That just means that as the old guard retire there's no one to replace them. Why would a zoomer work their ass off to run an anime con when they can just turn up at an MCM? Cons struggle to fill the schedule with proper panels, let alone all the organisation to manage an entire con.

    Actual cons feel like they're sliding into extinction, replaced by soulless mega events. Feels bad desu.

    No, those two things tend to go hand in hand. Attractive loners/bullied girls end up whoring out to any boy who gives them attention, becomes anyones gf even if she doesnt like them, and then totally relies on current boy to fufill all their social needs. When he gets sick of it and leaves (especially if she wont put out), on to the next boy of the week.

    It's honestly sad to watch.

    After reading this thread it's easy to see why that happened. It's inevitable that a bunch of oversensitive freaks will soon lose the plot and focus on themselves instead of their craft.

    nobody cause magic refuses to get vtubers
    >Are you getting any tattoos?
    lmao

    I only go to ink'd because aside from CAD (which is about to be facing bankruptcy) and WAY smaller cons, it's the only thing to keep me sane until C2E2. I think its a mistaken identity con that'd be better if it dropped the "Anime Magic" name. Cause it scares away both Anime enjoyers AND Tattoo enjoyers.

    Plus they sure as shit don't reinvest the money they make from Magic into the primary con cause half their "bought" machines are still broke as fuck

    To counteract all the moids here and the overwhelming spamming of slutty girls, here's a thread dedicated to the cuties who cosplay.

    Emphasis on the "cute" part. Bodybuilders cosplaying just to show off their abs are just as bad as the girls who only do it for onlyfans.

    >ITT: Dating in the hobby

    Seems like there is a tough barrier to work through when it comes to trying to keep your partner within the hobby. My ex hated cosplay and anime and it has done nothing but drive me to want to date cosplayers, more to help them afford better cosplays and all that, as well as just enjoy cons together and all that stuff. All the apps try and say that you can narrow down your search, or apps like Boo, but it just ends up being normies who either catfish or ghost.
    Is there an actual place or app to use that isn't dog shit? At the same time I've found that cosplayers generally want to be left alone at cons while they do their thing.

    Geheimnisnacht soon, edition

    General LARP/HEMA/SCA/Battlegame thread. Ask questions, post your latest projects, share photos, you know the drill.

    Thread question: what are your Halloween related plans, events, and costumes this year?

    Pic related: finished a hat for my new character. After the mercenary Ernst Schalger got killed by Skaven last year's Geheimnisnacht in Wilhelmsburgh, the warband is helping bolster their numbers with a freshly trained witch hunter apprentice, who's name is not yet known...

    >>10976993
    Nice hat Gropey. Where's the coin from?

    Recently played a Spooky horror one-shot set in the 13th century. It featured demons, cultists wicker men, and general folk horror enemies, had a good time. I've got a Warhammer fantasy event coming up as well, so need to finalise my kit for that.

    Kit wise, not much on the slate at the moment. Might try make some more camp accessories, and improve on my games box for any downtime I have. As the nights grow longer the number of games get thin on the ground, so it's nearly maintenance season.
