/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.

Not ugly, but I swear every single person who's new to lolita owns this thing and I'm getting sick of seeing it in beginner's coords without a blouse, a petticoat, shit accessories (if they're even wearing any) and shit shoes.

Is your cosplay done or are you con crunching?
Are you hosting a panel or working a booth?
Going to the rave?
Favorite part of the con?
Any other activities you’re looking forward to?

Friday and Saturday.

Picrel.
>Is your cosplay done or are you con crunching?
It's done, not much to it besides the helmet and the shirt. I'm considering getting a prop of Bondrewd's White Whistle at some point this year.
>Are you hosting a panel or working a booth?
No badge this year, just lobby-conning.
>Favorite part of the con?
Making new friends, and introducing existing friends to each other (from outside their circles). Also just finding people to talk about shared interests with, between anime, weeb music, and vidya.
>Any other activities you’re looking forward to?
Hitting up room parties at night, mild alcoholism hopefully ensues.

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?

The first Momocon I went to was about as busy as Katsucon Thursday was, which is why I usually came on Weds. it’s dead Weds but when you wake up you actually see cosplayers and people pop in for thurs. Friday from last years memory is pretty bumping.

Been spending the past few days on pepakura and attempting to make a Gotchard helmet. I’m going to be fine but I need to size up the damn thing since I forgot to account for puzzle mat thickness, and the pattern is scaled for 5mm thickness. I think I’ll be fine for Momocon, kind of pumped for it.
>>
Anyone setting up a meet up here? I'm down to go. Also does momocon allow people to sell their tickets? I want to buy from people, who cant refund their tickets and get them at a normal price not 100$
>>
>>10912138
I'm down for a meetup. I'm planning on going all 4 days. I'm not too sure about if they're allowing people to sell their tickets. I mean you could email them or something. I had emailed them about a question a few weeks ago and they got back to me real quick.

Has anyone been to a cgl meetup before? Ive never been to one and Im curious as to what they are like, Im too shy to take part of one

I'm a near-complete beginner to con culture and the "scene" due to zero exposure to it until recently and I have too many questions swimming around in my head that I need to ask. I've only been to a couple of small ones in my mostly-desolate area and I want to step up to traveling to bigger ones but I'm overwhelmed. Please bear with me.
>Do a majority of congoers cosplay? I know it's common, but is it seen as a faux pas to not cosplay?
>Likewise, is it seen as a faux pas to wear the same cosplay more than once in a multi-day event, or to not wear it some days?
>I've read a lot on this board about "after hours" events and parties that aren't scheduled by the con staff. Do you have to get invited to things like that, or how do people find out about them?
>Do cons that don't have a stated sub-demographic (ones that use terms like "fandom" or "pop culture" instead of specifically "fantasy" or "otaku" or something) tend to accept all demographics? Would you be looked at weird for going to something more "western" like SDCC in an anime cosplay, or would you expect to see a lot of them?
>Why do some huge cons like Colossal and Dragon seem to place such significance on getting a hotel room onsite as opposed to just being nearby? Surely not just traffic, right?
>What's a "gull"?
>How do you not get sick every time you go to one?
>How do you keep track of scheduling for multiple cons across multiple years? Do you get notified about them? When is "con season"?
>If you're partying, how do you deal with inevitable hangovers or crashes?
And some more personal questions
>If you cosplay, what's normally your budget? Both in terms of time and money.
>How do you make friends at a con if you're not going with a group?
>How many cons do you go to yearly or on a recurring basis? There are a fuckton I want to see but I'm not sure if my expectations are unreasonable.
Thank you for your time.

If I'm looking to meet people and make friends at a con, what's a basic sort of social media baseline to establish so people don't think I'm a freak? Just Instagram?

I feel like cosplay itself becomes a mask in that it disguises the identity and allows one to be free of theirself.
>>
>>10907364
If your immune system is so week you are still afraid of Covid then you should probably just never bother cosplaying again anon.

2024 and people still don't realize Covid was a giant fucking scam. So long as you were healthy, that shit did absolutely nothing.

>>10908739
Con's attract a particular type of autist that rarely goes outside and believes everything they read on their blogs and from influencers as it were a religion. Literally no one who touched grass gave a shit about Covid. But hey, it got me out of work for like 2 years so thanks for the free neetbux autists.

>I was vaccinated 4x and STILL almost died from covid, and I have no underlying illnesses.

No, I've seen girls walking around that look like anime girls without even trying. It just so happens none of them are caucasian.

Saya is a beautiful australopithecus, sure. But she wouldn't get very much attention if she went to a cosplay convention in the country where anime comes from.
