Less than a month away, time for a generalAnyone going? Got any plans? Any parties planned?
>>10914697I'll be Ness from Earthbound, Ethan Winters from Resident Evil and Peppino from Pizza Tower!Also neat! I saw a server a while ago but there was nobody in it. It was hard to find a lot of people talking about the con.
>>10914704the con has been a dud for the past few years because of the drawn out covid bullshit this is the first year they actually have some good international guests again
>>10914709I get that, that was pretty much most cons for the past few years. I typically went to Fanime for the longest time but that cons been actively going to shit, so I opted to go with a friend to this instead, I might do Anime North or Momocon later on down the line, I just wanted to see each one first. I'm glad there's even any guests at all for that matter.
>>10914723I go to AZ because I live 30 minutes from Raleigh and I know a few people who also go every yearnever been to another con
>>10914741That was me with Fanime partially, I live near San Jose and I used to know a ton of people who went, now because of the previous reasons mentioned it's not really worth it for me anymore.Plus I just wanna see something different, going to the same thing always is a bit tiresome.
Just wanted to share the cosplays I completed last year
>>10914373I can't tell if you're the real deal or some degen playing pretend, but easy test:What ribbons were you handing out at Katsu this year?
>>10914392The cute ones!But in all seriousness how am I supposed to remember such a small detail like that!?
>>10914467Oof, it is a degen. They were hololive ribbons to match the hololive cosplay. Plus I doubt the actual cosplayer would be on here when acen is happening rn.
On a separate note, the katsu 4chan meetup was cool.
>>10831480Just got done ripping my cock off to the one on the right, think I'll try left next or maybe 2nd from left
Anime North is only a month away, anyone else going but not buying a ticket this year?
>>10914915as opposed to the states??!
>>10914935I know everyone is fat there, but is it really celebrated?
>>10914762sometimes but I loath talking to people who *only* watch anime
>>10914762I do but only mecha
>>10914812AX is much more worth this then this "literal who" con. Fuck driving there tho, that would take forever from around these parts
Taking place April 27th-28th we're just over a month away, are any of you guys planning on going? Anyone returning from last year, or planning on going for their first time this go-around? Cosplay plans? C'mon let's hear 'ya out.
That sassy Marisa cosplayer derailed the entire thread last year with fans and haters alike so I'm guessing she didn't come this time
>>10914390Oh? More details? I know most Marisas were staff/volunteers, so I'm curious which one you mean?
>>10914660Nothing dramatic, really. Pic rel Marisa was there both days. She definitely got my attention and we talked a bit, had a drink. I wouldn't have given it too much thought, but some anon mentioned her and that was all anyone could talk about after. "She's so cool, she's so stuck up. She's hot, she's ugly. She's a tranny." Clearly someone who knows how to get attention at least. ...Though I just checked her Xitter and saw she *was* there after all
>>10914675Yes we get it you are a pornsick moid who orbits tranny secondaries because they have le guns. You are everything wrong with the western Touhou fanbase.
>>10914691Lose weight.
protection from the elements in style
>>10910657I'm legit impressed, this whore makes that head thing look good on the coord, I thought I'd never see this day, I've always hated those head things, however they're called
>>10910917>you dropped this, queen

Is there a way to change the phone number of your TB account? It won't let me log in unless I use a two-step authentification and I don't have that phone anymore...
I've been getting this error for to days now with none of the solutions stated in its link working. I'm using a verified account that's many years old, but I can't click anything anymore without that popping up and using a different internet connection also doesn't change anything.
Has anyone ordered from Sosic recently? I ordered two pairs of tea parties on 18th May and the ETA on the listing is 15 days, which has obviously come and gone. My SS is now saying they’ll cancel and refund unless I ask them not to in the next 72 hours.Wat do
>>10914677It happened to me too, I ordered from them but since they didn't deliver in time my SS cancelled.
I figured I'd make one. I only ever come back for cons I'm going to. Any of you men going? Yeah I know it's expensive. And mostly drunk. But I enjoy the atmosphere and laying by the pool during the day. I've been serious on the diet and exercise train. Should be looking good enough for my Krauser cosplay in a month.
>>10914450Saw them eating each other alive over "Non-consentual friend requests". Whatever the hell those are.I just wanna say I love you guys so much, I can't imagine being one of those fucking retarded troglodytes posting their balls and flab every week.
Hearing the people get scam is soo funny to me. Like of course I trust random person on internet with my money to save me a room.
I went last year and it was the best con I've ever been to. Definitely you need to be staying on-site though, I was seeing like 15 people in one room like sardines on the regular.The villa parties were great, having what is essentially a house party at an anime con is so much better than dealing with the limitations of even a larger hotel suite. People were friendly and had random badge flair to give out. Wish I could go again.Shoutouts to Anon since you're probably in here.
>>10914671NO VILLA SHILLS AND NO FAT CHICKS
>>10914671Thanks bud! Hope to see you at this year's CWF!
ITT: We post pictures of cosplay from the 90's or early 2000's.
>>10911790nta but i feel this. there are still some people who do it but it's not the same most people only craft or sew to show it off for e-clout. i remember being excited when i drafted my own patterns or designed my own wig, but the only people i shared that with were my friends and people at the con. now people just ask where you got your cosplay, they assume you bought it.
>>10914323Oof, that poison ivy thot is on point
>>10911790i feel this is the same with anime itself. it used to be that you waited years for a single new anime to get released in the west, it was easy to know like all 10 anime that existed total and everyone had the same frame of reference. people just rewatched or reread the same series for years because that was all they had, so cosplaying from it was also a natural choice. but now you can watch the entire new broadcasted lineup of anime the same day it all comes out in japan and there are multiple broadcast seasons a year, there is too much too fast so most people don't get into the series as deep because they just switch to the next new thing immediately after they finish the previous thing.
>>10886605So cool. Back when nerds were nerds. Absolutely lovely thread. Man, I remember being so entranced by anime back then. It was such an exotic mysterious world from a far away land. It had so much style. I was so cool. I wish I was older back then. I could've had so much fun with this stuff.
groundbreaking
>mfw realizing cosplay is only worth it if you're attractive
>>10878507Just cover your ugly ass
>>10878507And yet I'll do it anyways.
>>10878600Most hobbies don't do that actually
Literally just stop being fat
>>10914442>show someone a basic crochet >OMG ANON SO CUTE YOU SHOULD START A BUSINESS>show someone some basic anime art'>WOW ANON YOU'RE SO GOOD!>show someone cosplay>heh. isnt that kinda embarassing?
I fucked up the title of the last thread and put Anime Weekend Atlanta.Anyone going to Momocon? Dates are Friday, May 24th through Monday, May 27th at the Georgia World Congress Center. Have any cosplay plans? Doing any interesting panels? Selling anything?
>>10909646>pics that go hard
>>10914174Friday, 11:30 PM.Not gonna lie it’s pretty fucking gay that they’ve changed the way badge pick up works for panelists. Last year I got to pick up my badge at will call and now I have to wait in line. Very sad
>>10914284Lines for registration aren't really a problem at momocon, they really nail this part of the con
I’ll see you next week
Why isn't the panel schedule printable outside of Google drive
What would be the best material to make a suit of power armor? Small pieces of 3d print, foam? Should I design it in the early fallout slimmer style or the later fallout mech style?
>>10911781I can offer no advise, but please do post pictures of the work in progress and finished results.
>>10911781Would this armor look weird on a 5’7 guy? Also how do I figure out sizing?
>>10912423box stilts
As someone who has made 3D printed power armor (Not Fallout).Don't do it, it's just too heavy. I don't know what the right answer is because I really like the sharpness and symmetry of prints. I really want to try a mix of foam and prints but I'm not there yet>>10912423The helmet will help, but the in-game model also has like 6" of stilts in them so it probably would look of not to tower over peopleCheck out some software called Armorsmith for sizing, basically punch in your measurements and you can snap pieces onto an avatar and tweak on sizes

Have many anime cons outgrown their current convention centers / venues?Anime Expo and Katsucon both seem at their limit
How did Otakon do in DC? Haven't been since like 2016 or something.
>>10909918Daniel?
I know that's why Anime Weekend Atlanta had to swap venues. I'm gonna miss that convention center!
>>10909959Nope, Anime Boston recently signed contracts keeping them in the Hynes currently up to 2028. It's also been said that the BCEC layout/configuration does not align to what Anime Boston wants to do/offer.
>>10911461It shrank down to about 24,900 in 2017-first year in DC, climbed up to about 28,500 in 2018 & 2019. Coming back from COVID in 2021, it shrank down to 25,564 despite only having a masking requirement. It climbed to about 40,500 in 2022 (in part due to AnimeNEXT's issues in 2022) and to about 42,000 in 2023.
So I'm trying make the weapons in pic related and I was wondering what materials I should use.
>>10910692Real metal. Go hard or go home.
