im not hesitant to cosplay, weirding out people is like my 3rd favorite hobby, its just idk how to sew stuff without losing 10 needles, stepping on 5 of them, and getting distracted

I really felt that tip about footwear lol. With my third cosplay I was cosplaying Servant Of Evil (Vocaloid) with my friend and I made a three piece suit for myself. The day before the convention I'm getting everything ready and trying it on and realize I only own sneakers... My older brother had dress shoes he let me borrow but being being a younger girl I had to stuff three grocery bags into each just to keep them from slipping off with each step. My feet looked monstrous at the convention. Good times lmao.

Definitely interested in the different types of foam and what thickness are better for certain items. Just started looking at foam thickness and there’s so much out there. Just started watching your channel, so much to learn here! Thank you!

I’ve always wanted to cosplay but I never really had the confidence, I already have my friends to do it with me but I wasn’t sure if everything would go according to you plan, my family is going through a rough time but after watching this video it gave me the confidence to cosplay! I’m planning on cosplaying my oc but My Hero academia style for Halloween and I’m super excited A thank you coming from Massachusetts uwu

Hi wow, so, I just found your channel today, and I must say that your cosplays are amazing. I've been cosplaying since late 2017 and I'm getting somewhat better at it. I really appreciate all of the tutorials and tips on your channel. I am also very surprised because I can't believe you go to Nebraskon too! If you're going again this year, I think it would be really cool to meet you!

Thank you so much for this Video! Very informative and helpful. 💕 I recently started planning my first cosplay as Chitanda eru from Hyouka. I've wanted to start cosplaying for years, but I never dared to, because I didn't think I had the right body or face for it ... But thankfully I dont give a damn about that anymore. Keep up the great work and greetings from germany! ✌🏻💕

LMFAO OH WOW. That is creepy. My cat was having a manic episode while I was filming (tbh she usually does) and had jumped on top of my desk and jostled stuff around so I fixed it. Sorry to spook ya! Pretty funny though.

thank you for the advice, i'm a new cosplayer and i might be getting my first full cosplay at Christmas so i'm really excited. i allready have 2 wigs one is canon and one is styled. Also do you have any tips for if you have an itchy wig? thanks. x

thank you! can't wait to start cosplaying!

I've been wanting to start cosplay for sometime so this video is really helpful and well explained. Thank you!

This is an older video, so I’m mostly commenting for random beginners who might find it: Think about the heat and/or cold when you pick your cosplay, please. If you’re going to a con in the middle of a hot summer you probably don’t want to be wearing full body armor all day. At least not as a first cosplay, later you will pick up tricks for how to do things like that safer if you want to. But seriously, as somehow who is trying hard to un-learn the ”you have to suffer for your art!” thing, staying safe and comfortable is super important.

Thanks for the tips!! I'm new to cosplays and I hope to start cosplaying

Who else is watching this whilst wearing there first ever cosplay

I'm watching this as I work on my cosplay for new York comicon next week. Thank you for this video.^^ I always like to see talented cosplayers inviting newcomers to the community and giving advice. Late comment I know, but I needed background noise. :)

Thank you!! This helped me alot and i think only because of you i'll make a cosplay acc on tiktok

All these videos, All these videos! and i still can't start cosplaying! I'm too scared of what people will think

Like I said, at a convention, no one is going to judge you for cosplaying! There's so many benefits to being in cosplay at a con, particularly that just wearing a costume is a huge icebreaker for you to get to know new friends. YOU CAN DO IT!

The time and work needed to make my costume excites me, to be honest, what is a major turn off is, I’ve spent over 1,000 dollars on getting all the necessary tools and equipment, only to then get a cold dose of reality about just how expensive EVA foam is. Fifty dollars for one 14in x 39in piece of foam. That’s insane! Currently looking at other alternatives like interlocking foam mats…

Where are you shopping? go to tntcosplaysupply, wherever you're shopping for foam is the wrong place if you're paying that much.

I know there is a huge mermaid and fairy community,and a small group of cosplayers as centaur, I’m having trouble finding the half snake half human monster, or Dragon cosplay. I like dragons, mermaids, fairy’s, centaurs, half human half snake monsters.

What do you think about colored contacts? Where do you think is the best place to buy them? I want to cosplay a character that has a different eye color than me, but I wear prescription contacts, what should I do?

@SynergyCraft

4 жыл бұрын

Hey! Personally I can't wear colored contacts as I have mild astigmatism, so I don't have any personal experience with that. I do have friends who use them and you have to be extremely careful with where and how you get them. Quoting the CDC here, "By (United States) law, decorative contact lenses, whether they correct vision or not, require a prescription and proper fitting from an eye doctor. Any type of contact lens that can be purchased without a prescription is being sold illegally-and can pose serious risks to sight and eye health." It might seem crappy to have to take extra steps when it comes to colored contacts, but its worth it to be as safe as possible when looking to buy some. Since I don't have experience with it, im not comfortable recommending a brand and taking the risk of the brand being unreliable or dangerous. But definitely do some extensive research on various retailers and make sure they meet required safety standards! Best of luck to you with it, and i apologize that I couldn't be more helpful with this one! ❤

That is good advice: Rather save up a bit and buy a quality item (wig or whatever) than do a quick cheap buy and end up having to buy a better product anyway. Happend to me "_"

A big stick certainly could work for a staff! It just depends on what kind of staff you're trying to make 😁 I would suggest if you do, to make sure it's really clean, and you might want to look into some information on whiddling/woodworking if you want to take the bark off. Super creative idea!

Hi I have a question I’m making a hiyoko saionji cosplay from danganrompa and I don’t know how to make a kimono 👘 do you have any tips ?

@SynergyCraft

4 жыл бұрын

Waaayyy back in the day when I started cosplaying, I made a kimono-style top for my Pokemon Gym Leader Erika cosplay by using a store-bought pattern for a bathrobe and altering it! I made the bottom of the sleeves wider and longer, and then you can adjust the length of the whole thing as well, making it shorter or longer as needed. I recommend using some kind of cheap fabric (such as muslin, which you can find for 2-3$ a yard) to make a mockup first, check the fit, and then make the real thing with your good fabric. :D To make the obi, you'll just have to measure yourself and you should be able to make a long, wide rectangle that will work. I hope this helps!

Hi, I know you posted this a while ago but I have a question about wigs. All my friends always Cosplay for Halloween, and I found a decent wig on Amazon. I'm just planning on using it for school and a small party later. Should I just use the cheaper wig or spend the money for the more expensive one? Thanks.
