Just in case anyone still doubted that someone called upon the FB whiteknights...

Can we talk about the van Abbemuseum video? What even is that?

>>9716727
The beginning already made me cringe.
Also what's with her wig..her outfit..her everything
Also >Dokter Oak

Neglected to post in last thread because trash thread, but I had my photoshoot with my new demon wings, coolest pic so far

>>9716735
No you're not allowed to be so perfect I'm jealous.

>>9716735
Would be cooler at night with those rave glaives

>>9716727
It's a marketing campaign to lure parents and their children to a museum. Parents see this and they might think that museum could be a cheap day out with the kids. They'll show this to their kids and they might think this is an adventure instead of some boring old museum. Sure it's cringy to us, but that doesn't matter as it wasn't made us in the first place.

Also here's a link to those who curious about the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nCaMP6y9Fkk

>>9716735
Looking good Smoke!

>>9716750

That is some weird ass, blm, miku, star trek, gyaru selfie crossover coming to life from some weird oc from deviantart...

>>9716735
Love the cos, too bad of the angle. First glance cool photo, closer up meh..

Got some better shots/photos ?

>>9716765
>Love the cos, too bad of the angle. First glance cool photo, closer up meh..
>Got some better shots/photos ?
Care to show us a picture of what you think is a good photo and good angle?

>>9716765
Was hard for the photographer to get the wings on the picture hence the angle i guess (theyre 5m, also why the weapons aren't on here), here's another but with just the glaives

>>9716740
>>9716746
tyy

>>9716768
>Care to show us a picture of what you think is a good photo and good angle?

>>9716770
This one.

>>9716777
>This one.
I don't see anything wrong with the angle in the first one. But this does sum up your taste in one quick example.

>>9716777
>This one.

I don't see anything wrong with the angle in the first one. The cosplayer herself obviously thought it was a nice photo too, otherwise she wouldn't have chosen to post it as a first picture.
But this does sum up your taste in one quick example.

>>9716779
Everyone has their own taste :-), never said it was a bad photo.

All these people here judging eachother for their tastes jesus christ

And now Jesus Christ has been added to the mix as a power term to add more tude, Jesus Christ.

Is there a option to start this thread over xD

>>9716795
That was added like 2000 years ago

>>9716789
>Hopping onto /cgl/ just to say how much you dislike the people on it
You truly sound like the kind of person who would visit a steakhouse only to complain about how everyone there is eating meat. Stop being such an obnoxious idiot and piss off if you can't handle people not sugarcoating everything they say.

>>9716803
There's a difference between not sugarcoating and just plainly bashing someone for absolute bullshit. Kind of like you do right now. Take a piece of steak, will ya?

Here is where I would post my work in progress, IF I HAD ANY

>>9716815
Sounds like a splendid idea!

>>9716815
>tfw I still haven't gotten around to ordering fabric for my DMC3 Vergil
Fucking work taking up all of my time, at least it's far from a bad job and it pays pretty well

Time for a friendly reminder to everyone that these shitposters/white knights are only here hoping to trigger a response with their posts. The best course of action is to simply ignore them completely and carry on as usual. Giving them any form of attention will only make them stay longer.

Also to said shitposters/white knights, keep in mind that your presence here is doing more harm than the original remarks which brought you here in the first place. The content on 4chan moves fast and typically goes forgotten within just a day or two. The thread regulars are also very keen on moving on to more interesting topics than some mean words some Anon said about you or a friend. In fact, by continuously bringing up an old topic and throwing these childish tantrums you are the only one responsible for keeping said topic and the thoughts that came with it alive. Besides, why do you even care what some prick on the internet said about you anyway? Just move on, go to bed and make tomorrow a better day.

Not even half-way through. But we're getting there.... and then it needs waxing..

It looks loads less derpy now! Good job.

Am i the only one wondering where op gets the neverending supply of art from?

What are you guys' opinion on "big" cosplays. Aka big ass props or armors?
I've been contemplating on putting all focus on a big projects instead of smaller works.

>>9717155
I think big cosplays attract more attention and are often more impressive, but they also limit where you can go and what you can do at the con. So it depends on your priorities and what you want to do with the cosplay. If you want to win contests and do photoshoots then big projects are great, but if you also want to hang out and wander around then anything large will quickly become a liability.
A good compromise is if whatever is large about your costume (weapon, wings) can be removed and left in the car or hotel room. Then you can wander around without smacking people in the face and only retrieve the wings or whatever for when it's time for photos.

>>9717155
>>9717166
As someone who commonly makes big cosplays: when you start out you are miserable at making good constructions, stuff breaks down and you're gonna die under the weight and duration of the con, but over time you learn to compromise, make better constructions and be a lot more comfortable. It pays off in the end, and it's nice because people pay attention to a bigger cosplay more often in the end.

>>9717155
>>9717180
Agreed with this. Also if you're going to do armour, keep a few things in mind:

-Be able to sit
-Be able to use the toilet
-Be able to eat/drink

Those are stupidly important and if you didn't think of them during making, you're going to have a bad time. In the case of Nethergundam for example, I know I won't be able to use the toilet, so I will go before I put it on and will only wear it for the competition and a few hours, then switch to something else.

I also did some embroidery yesterday by the way. It's a test in colours.

>>9717155
>Am i the only one wondering where op gets the neverending supply of art from?
I typically use Google Images to find them. Just use some Dutch thing as a keyword, slap anime or manga behind it and odds are you'll find something that works. Reverse image searches are also useful as they tend to give you the name of an artist and similar works by others. If that fails I'll try searching DeviantArt and Pixiv to find some cool stuff. Sometimes I'm lucky and other Anons will suggest an image to me. For instance Sinterklaas from the previous thread, traditional Dutch appeal and the original Tully pictures were all suggested by you wonderful people.

And to get a bit more technical, I always make sure to upscale smaller images using Waifu2x. This tool does an excellent job at upscaling without causing (too many) ugly artefacts. It also handles basic noise reduction although I prefer to use Topaz DeNoise for photographs. Finally I'll make sure to reduce the filesize a bit without sacrificing picture quality by saving it as a JPG (quality 9~12) or as a compressed PNG using the SuperPNG plugin in Photoshop. For instance, here's the current OP image after running it through Waifu2x.

>>9717238
Oh nice!

Anyone visited midwinter fair? How was it, did I miss anything by staying inside drinking hot coco?

Missed my bus stop because I was reading fanfiction. Now have to take another bus after standing outside in the snow for a while. Is this punishment for being into fujoshit?

>>9718056
Reading the fanfiction didn't make you warm enough to melt the snow around you?

>>9718062
Must have been a lousy fanfic then.

>>9718125
Haha.

Planned Discord-mod-meeting has been postponed thanks to some H20 with Hypothermia.

Now I'll just have to strap up Nethergundam on my own.

>>9716735
do you have a cosplay page or anywhere where you posted wip pictures/tutorials for the wings? If not any tutorials you used?

>>9718763
Or just wait until Wednesday before you somehow end up stabbing yet another crucial body part. I swear I'll eventually free you from your windmill shaped prison cell.

>>9718888
It wasn't known on here yet that I stabbed myself.

Yes

>>9718780
Yeah, I have descriptions in my progress album for this cosplay on /WillowCreative.NL/ (facebook). I did a lot of research for the wings mainly using information from thegriffinqueen/alexis noriega/the crooked feather (all the same person)

yes

I didn't think she could Photoshop more than she already did. Guess I was wrong. At least the older pictures kind of looked like her. This is just madness. Wtf kimu (definitely not a vendetta post :^) )

>>9719479
I didn't believe it was her at first. Ah well. What did you expect?

>>9719480
I'm just still horrified by this. That's literal 'giftwrap ribbon'.

>>9716735
damn you look awesome!

>>9719482
I'm not sure what horifies me more: the badly done symbol or the ugly edges of the ribbon itself

>>9719482
Who made this? I'm SHOOK

>>9719537
Kimu....

>>9719548
It gets even worse. It helps that she doesn't want to pay a lot as she wants to do quick cosplays and shoots, get e-fame and then move on, so you'll never see it in real life. I just hope she can someday understand how amazing it is to put actual dedication in a cosplay.

>>9719487
desu the edges, person didn't even bother to cut off the extraneous lengths at the corners, why
>>9719548
>>9719550
oh it's kimu, just photoshop all the bad stuff away np

>>9719479
This is supposed to be Kimu? Her face literally changes with every photoshop. Ah well. If ugly shoops are making you happy.....

>>9719550
We all start somewhere, but there's a difference between 'It'll do and I'll improve on my next try' and 'I'll just photoshop it away'

>>9719479
What that fat hand do

>>9719550
>Prolly my worst prop of the year
Are you sure, Kimu?

>>9719550
Aren’t these posts from her private account? I’m not a fan of her either. But if you dislike her so much, just unlike her.
Posting things from someone’s private account is such a dick move.

>>9719666
Not the one who posted the screenshot of the props, but it was posted on her private account and set on public.

Why y’all always trashing kimu like that? What does it matter she photoshop her face? You think she is the only in the world who does that? Don’t be so naieve. If you dont want to edit your face then dont edit your face. If you do want to edit your face because thats how you like it then by all means do it. You guys are acting so shocked she does it. While every single billboard on the street has more editing to the model then photoshop can handle. Its life grow up. We people like to make things look more pretty and photoshop is a great tool for it! In fact i see allot of cosplay photos where i wish it had more editing because my eyes hurt looking at them...

>>9719691
It does matter when one blatantly lies about not using Photoshop or filters.

>>9719694
Does she? Show me where...

> As mentioned in previous tread, there's a separate tread on PULL about kimu, it's a waste to spend time and attention on her in the Dutch 4chan tread.

I don't know how I feel about all the rushed snow shoots. I wouldn't want to risk hypothermia for some shitty closet cosplay shoots

>>9719703
She claimed multiple times on her personal facebook and cosplay page. Also to "friends"

>>9719691
i kind of agree i see allot of photos out there what make me want to poke my own eyes out. i dont think its such a bad thing to edit cosplayers faces

Thats kind of what you get for being a manipulative liar

I like furry hentai

>>9719712
man of culture

I eat my girls ass if she had a bad day.

>>9719709
As long as she edits her own photos to uncanny valley, I couldn’t care less. Like she does.
But if a photographer edited my face to
unrecognisable, without discussing it beforehand. I would really be angry.

>>9719724
Nah she just asks for RAWs and edits her face without permission

>>9719725
Well seeing she always shoots with the same people, they do give permission? Otherwise why would you shoot with her after getting tricked once.

She edits the pics, the photographers she works with do edit beforehand but never to that extend. She just takes a pic that was a 7.5 before and turns it into a 5.6 while she's a 2.5 irl

>>9719729
For a photographer it's business. If she pays they get the money. If it's free they do get some exposure through her. Even if half of the likes are bought she still has a big platform where their works will be shown.
It's a pity she doesn't clarify that she edits the pictures
"photo by:.....
Edit by me"
Because now it looks like the photographers botch her face like that

>>9719736
Of course she doesnt clarify that she "edits" her face. She claimed multiple times that her face isnt edited and she'll never admit it either.

S O O N

>>9719832
WHOOP WHOOP WHOOP WHOOP

>>9719709
At least change your typing style if you’re going to samefag that hard.

>>9719736
I dont think she ever paid a photographer in NL atleast. The least she'll do is cover traveling expenses.. sometimes.

>>9719691
>
We are not shocked. How can we be? Kimu doesn't have any normal pictures with her real face. We are Disgusted, so everytime we see another badsly shopped face we are disgusted again. You dummy...

>>9719691

We see shit and we call shit out. I'm surprised you are acting so shocked, did you live under a rock the last 10 years?

>>9720004
Maybe one of her "friends"? Though I doubt she would see anyone without value as a friend.

>>9719959
she never did. She even started fights with photographers who did ask money for shoots. But it's nothing new that she's like that. I mean, she got banned for refunding perfectly fine cosplays so why expect she'd pay for shoots

>>9720235
Many photographers do it as a hobby just as the many cosplayers do. I see her shoot allot with the same photographers. I don't think they would shoot again with her if she did all those things mentioned here? Sure maybe in the past she did some things which are not good, but who didn't? Most negative things about her are the same things which are mentioned for years now.. Maybe she did that in the past, learned from her mistakes and moved on. Maybe its time to do the same? The person who keeps bringing her up over and over again really has issues with moving on with his/her life and should seek some professional help if you ask me.

>>9719691

>>9720312
Here buddy I found your nametag. Don’t lose it this time.

>>9718023
You missed a lot of rain on the Saturday, and a lot of snow on the Sunday. The midwinterfair is fun but it feels like it's shrinking more and more every year. All in all the Archeon is fun, but the event feels a little in decline.

>>9718763
Atleast there's a chance he'll help you undress it. :^)

>>9719550
Man, I never knew even I could get cosfamous. The more you know.

>>9719651
I'm sure this is based on some historical recovery of an art piece. As we all know some medieval artists were rather... loose with their perception and depiction of reality. Pic related.

>>9719691
Or you could fix that last problem by becoming better, instead of pretending you're good.

>>9719840
The goyim know. Shut it down.

>>9720329
Can't even post pics anymore. Atleast it's a free (you).

>>9720312
And when they choose to do it for money, they shouldn't get yelled for. She also just could've said something like "Okay, I'm not interested then" instead of making a whole big (online) deal and fight about it. She doesn't learn shit from her mistakes. People like her never change.

Tbh i don't even think it's people with vendetta who keep bringing her up on the tread. No one who has beef with her even has contact with her. It's prolly just one of her 'friends' who's salty. Or even herself. I mean she's an attentionwhore alright. She might as well just drop herself on every tread since we always take the bait

>>9720457
I really hope nobody has sunk so low as to self shame on 4Chan.

>>9720458
Nayrt but it's happened before. Haters make you famous, right?

Time for something fun!
I placed a commission at Willow Creative and the outcome is amazing. 10/10! The communication went really smoothly and it is even fluffier as it looks. The construction is really nice as well. It was really worth it!
I wanted to share it as she makes amazing products and I wanted to share something positive on here.

>Please take your drama elsewhere.

>>9720485
Good for you

>>9720485
Nice shill, Smoke

>>9720495
Thank you.

>>9720485

>>9720485
Thats fun! We love to read self marketing posts!

>>9720535
If you're in the 4chan discord or the fate NL discord , you know that I am not Smoke and that I was soo hyped for this that I shared it everywhere! I even bothered my Fate-friends with it. Ah well, not like I am going to convince a random anon here. Well then, please keep on shitposting about Kimu. bye.

>>9720547
Then don't assume it was a self post. I get you assume 4chan people are shitheads but I try to keep some dignity atleast.

>>9720559
don't make me get a tripcode you fag

Why you talking to yourself lol

>>9720582

So I heard reading comprehension is difficult these days. Thanks for giving me an example.
>trying to be smart on 4chan but not knowing what a tripcode is.

The IQ of people here are seriously through the roofs

>>9720458
She'd seem like the type to do so. She loves to post drama and cries on facebook anyways. Perfect way to get people to boost your ego and tell you you're amazing and don't deserve the hate.

If you're already photoshopping everything... Might as well photoshop your wig an entirely different color! :D

>>9720516
>>9720559

>>9720587
Tripfag Thursday is tomorrow.

>>9720617
Might as well photoshop your entire costume, no need to scam taobao sellers anymore then.

>>9720705
Too bad she scans people who buy her costumes as well. No one should ever buy costumes from kimu. The doesn't clean them and asks 2-3 times the price she paid for it. Don't fund this shit lol

>>9720757
Scams* she* my bad. Autocorrect.

>>9720757
Speaking of uncleaned costumes..I noticed that only 1 out of 5 second hand costumes I own were cleaned beforehand. The others were either dusty (big costume that doesn't fit in regular washing machines, so ok) smelly (sweaty) dirty (makeup and paint almost everywhere). I also have a terrible handmade costume that will never see the light of day. Seriously people don't become a commissioner or sell second hand selfmade costumes if you're shit at it.

speaking of scammers, dont trust shoobiecosplay they lie about what they make

>>9720782
That's the worst. Ever. Really though. I bought something from her once and it had foundation stains everywhere. It's so gross and for 30 euros less I could've had a brand new one. Disgusting and disrespectful. Heard the same complaint from a few others.

>>9720782
Would always advise to meet up and see the costume for yourself when buying second hand self made cosplays. Unless it's a reputable cosplayer or has commission reviews.

>>9720787
Grossss

>>9720782
Would always advise to meet up and see the costume for yourself when buying second hand self made cosplays. Unless it's a reputable cosplayer or has commission reviews.
For myself I sold older, less well-made costumes before, and I discounted it and pointed out that it was lesser quality self-made stuff. I just didn't want to throw it in the bin if I could make anyone else happy with it for little money.

>>9720787
Grossss

>>9720809
Seems like it didn't cancel my old post like 4chan said it did, you can ignore it

>>9720810
I know it's fucking gross. I can't get it out either. XD I'll always have kimu's sweaty foundation stains in there. Feelsbadman

>>9720787
I bought something from her too one time and it also had foundation stains... The socks were really dirty and had a lot of glue stains on it, which made the fabric absolutely terrible and ugly, even breaking off. I regret buying it. I also got one of her wigs with it and it was one of the worst wigs I've ever seen. Definitely unwearable and full with broken fibres.

>>9720825
Did you laugh or did you lose?

>>9721035
I was about to make a similar joke.

As for the scamming discourse: I'm glad I make my own stuff because I'd be so salty if I bought a cosplay and it's gross.

>>9720782
I don't know how this is for secondhand bought costumes but most cosplayers I know who make their costumes don't bother finishing them properly, so you get costumes that would be unlikely to survive handwashing let alone a washing machine. I've offered to let friends use my serger or show them how to zigzag edges but they don't see the point because nobody will see the inside anyway. Well, except the people they sell to?? Who then get a costume that has never been washed and cannot be washed without fraying like hell.

>>9721045
But that still doesn't make up for the people who bought their cosplays. They don't bother washing them either.

>>9720786
I read Scoobycosplay. I was worried about the skateboard moves you were gonna pull.

>>9721055
They just nasty.

>>9719704
Curious as to which tread. What do i look for?

Please take all the Kimuposting here, thanks. Nobody cares.

>>9721219
Nah senpai. There is way more activity here than there so let's keep et here.

>>9721219
A lot of people care. That's why its getting posted here, dummy

'she sells things before it even arrives' I noticed it and this is weird af.

In doubt whether I should buy a dressmaker form or just get my sister to make me into a duct tape mummy. I'm just starting to sew

>>9721267
Duct tape mummy, that shit is so much fun!

>>9721232
One person samefriending up the thread does not a lot of people make, anon.

>>9721230
Then make activity there and leave this thread out of it.

>>9721293
Nah

>>9721293
If this wasn't anonymous maybe people would listen to you but since it is anonymous I really don't give a shit who or what gets discussed.

Why do I feel like she's trying to cover for herself by "standing up for photographers". Silly kimu. You're already past the "enhancing" point of your pictures.

>>9721310
Some people are just trash, but can only show it if no one is watching. No one wants a shitty friend like you, so please, keep on pretending.

>>9721322
You see that button in the top right? Yes? It means I'm not her friend on Facebook you daft cunt. Wouldn't want to be even if it cost me my live.

>>9721358
Life* my bad.

>>9721358
They were replying to a different post, though.

>>9721315
Photography doesn’t work that way. If you’re starting with a turd you can use Photoshop to polish it up as much as you want, but all you end up with is a polished turd.

>>9721315
All that matters is the outcome, you know that makes the photog happy with the end result, but we all know you'd looke like trash if it weren't for them.

>>9721368
Wait are you saying Kimu is a polished turd?

>>9721381
The moistest of them all.

>>9721315
>>9721381
>>9721387
Atleast someone is happy to have a polished turd on his photos. Even making it his cover image... She's probably talking about him on that fb post since he edits a lot, and often shoots with him nowadays too

>>9721390
Just let the guy be happy with his pictures. They're good.

>>9721390
is this Robin himself or do we get more context for this screenie?
Also I would set a good picture as my header even if it has a turd on it.

Why is naomi such an attention whore though

>>9721436

Most likely how all drama starts.

Poster makes screenshot. Shares it. Gets shared again. Some weirdo who still thinks this walking photoshop is relevant somehow. 4chan post

>>9721381
>>9721387
Perfect

>>9721463
People like Kimu only attract attention whores that like to ride other people's popularity bandwagon, so it makes sense that people like Naomi (not that I know her) flock to her and react on her posts.

Curious to the kimu x NNN drama. What happend?

>>9721565
Shit happened.

>>9721571
details?
I'm curious too.

>>9721581
It was pretty messy and the smell was unbearable. I would love to post a picture but I flushed before I even thought of taking one.

>>9721565
Heard from different people though that kimu had been a long problem for the longest time but the owner couldn't fire her for some reason... Basically her ruining the whole mood for everyone.

I read her post on her page about leaving the café but she was appearently lying about it to her manager about taking a break and then she tried to take it back. She only posted it on her page so when her "fans" see her in the café she will be considered special. Special snowflake Kimu didn't know how to keep up her lies? I can imagine why any café wouldn't appreciate that. She has been discussed in some WhatsApp groups too with screenshots but I lost them :(

>>9721602
she ruined my mood on Formula cosplay too, terrible service and bumped over tea with her cosplay tail then asked ME to apologize. luckily some cute colleague helped me out with cleaning it up. but she is such a terrible personality from my experience

Wasn't Xiuemi the one who f'ked things up there? she got hired and fired in a week or so and then shit went downhill fast, a lot of fights and people getting their head stuck in their ass and getting fired shortly after #shame

>>9721620
yh i heard she caused for a lot of drama issues in that period and she and kimu are friends now too right, i wonder if they got to some agreement, but at least trash took itself out

>>9721620
I always hear shit about her and about the time she worked there and how she allegedly ruined everything but never saw anything happen? So I'd like to know what the whole deal is. I thought it was personal conflict between her and pedo leon and kimu.
But even if you put her case and kimus and every other ex-maid's you could still say nnn is just a toxic cesspool.

>>9721627
I'd like to hear background on the maid drama thing too.

>>9721620
Doubt she would have caused all that on her own. If anything, she just spilled the bucket over that they've been desperately and pitifully trying to keep up.

>>9721619
I guess fake likes come with a free shitty ego and personality.

>>9721620
Xiuemi got hired there and left the cafe herself after a month or 2 because of the cafe drama and the cafe owner. Its not as if she'd caused it, she didnt even work so how could she. But all those NNN maids are fucked up in the head so I can imagine why'd she left so fast.

>>9721627
You didnt see anything happen because nothing happened. People like to assume things. She didnt got fired and there was indeed a personal conflict between her and Pedo, hence why she decided to leave the cafe herself. If any, Kimu was the one who fucked things up by lying etc. which made every maid angry and backstab her basically

>wakes up
>sees the thread
Okay, time to go back to bed, I guess.

But seriously, how could you have missed all this drama? It has been posted when it happened as well.

>>9721889
Didn't browse the boards ar that time. Also the boards get messy fast and it's hard to keep up when things get heated. Trying to find info in archive is near impossible.
But this much info is enough. My speculations have so far only been confirmed.
Nnn? Yikes.

>>9721620
>>9721627
>>9721641
>>9721852
>>9721856
Is that why she started her own cafe with that other ex-NNN maid?

>>9721965
I honestly don't think that's the reason.

>>9721852
>>9721856
This is what I heard as well. I think the story about Xiuemi f**king up everything is just another rumor spread by people who've got personal issues with her.

>>9721619
This sucks to hear. Didn't the manager say anything about it?

>>9722016
Kimu should work together with the organizer of Formula Cosplay, then. Since he is good in ruining events.

>>9722019
I wonder if Gio will organize a third edition of Formula...

>>9722028
To be honest with you, the guy did well organizing an event with such a low budget and with a shit reputation due to Powned and that whole K-Pop VS J-Pop thing.
Hey it's not a great event but it was good as some kind of meet with a few low-budget activities?
Unlike Tomo it doesn't take itself all too serious and actknowledges it's mistakes... fuck that shit with closing everything around 17:00 while it should've lasted till 20:00, they forced all their third-party organizations/helpers (such as the karaoke) to close all their stuff down while people were still using it/buying stuff from it.

>>9722028
He probably doesn't know it himself either, as he has been saying different things every time. First he said he would quit organizing events, then he said he will organize next year.

>>9722031
The organization behind Formula Cosplay really take themselves very serious and are bummed that Tomo is so successful.

>>9722031
Well the kpop vs jpop thing was during the latest event, after that it was total silence with Formula Cosplay.

>>9722031
During Abunai I heard a story that he will work together with another convention.

>>9722042
I heard this as well. About working with another convention. I have no idea which one though

I thought formula was pretty nice for the limited options they have, the costume contest was trash though. Plus they didn't even have chairs so you had to sit down on the floor. Saw more of ryuko's ass than I expected.

>>9722119
Ryuko respectfully apologizes for this shameful performance.

>>9722229
No I won't!

#viencon promotion

I found this

Viencon! Uncle Tomo is coming to get youuuuu!

Why can't we post in Dutch? They speak Spanish in the Spain thread

>>9722576
>POSTS MADE IN DUTCH ARE AGAINST GLOBAL 4CHAN RULES AND WILL BE REMOVED!
Because unlike those Spaniards we know it's against the global rules and don't feel like having our threads deleted again for breaking them.

>>9722348
If you are really smoke...you do have a smoking hot body so I didn't mind the view. I sound like a creeper though. Ok bye.

>>9722622
Can confirm, have a smoking hot body. Can't say the same about confirming I'm actually Smoke tho.

Speaking about Formula. We had one anime related con that was Christmas themed (no, not DCC winter), and I can't remember if it was a Formula edition or another con.

Man, I really hate those late night thoughts that are completely useless, but you can't lose them because not knowing annoys you too much.

>>9722629
I know bro, I had the same with the harry potter con that got promoted a long while ago, where they'd rent a castle. I still have the flyer laying around somewhere. Never heard of them ever again.

>>9722629
You probably mean Otakucon. As far as I know it's another con organised by otakunl that only had one edition but will never get a second edition.

>>9722626
Isai fuck off mate.

>>9722639
>thinking this is isai

It’s not rude enough and lacks threats.

>>9722634
Oh I remember that. 60 euro for a ticket for a event that was announced 3 months a head. Place wasn't even booked, so the online ticket system they used refunded people after they saw that.
All the "organisers" used Harry Potter characters as Facebook accounts. Was probably a scam.

>>9722636
That was it! Thanks anon.

>>9722636
OtakuNL will not organize anything anymore. I remember that he helped with an event (read: took over) last year, but that was such a failure that he wanted to have his name deleted in articles and such as he said it was all a lie.

>>9722993
I'm glad because I don't have to see his shitty self promo anymore. Anyone else has 'friends' that entered the cosplay compo at animecon, but you know they are shit and now you sit around wondering if they even finish their project?

>>9723012
I tried to enter. Waiting for the confirmation now.

>>9723046
Same, it's going to be my first time international compo if I get in.

>>9723048
I’m actually taking a break from international and do just the Animecon Solos

>>9723046

Good luck. Gonna enter next year and spend 2018 working on the cosplay and act.

I might enter a shit tier contest because I'm trash. Once I stop getting the runs when I'm stressed out.

>>9723139
>I might enter a shit tier contest because I'm trash.
Then stop cosplaying Love Live for fucks sake!

>>9723145
dingdingding you're right, I do own a love live cosplay.

>>9723012
I did enter! I'm really excited for this year. Most of my friends who also compete make really good costumes so I'm actually kind of scared...

>>9722495
Don't think Viencon has to worry about TomoParty.

>>9723998
Viencon has to worry about Viencon.

>>9720786
No shit

>>9724038
Very good!

>>9724210
Deets?

>>9720786
>>9724210
Any proof? I'm curious.

>>9723998
I really hope they boost up their promotion, because what they have done until now is garbage.

It's so annoying seeing people want to buy things like swords or anything rare last minute. A wig I get it, as sometimes you fuck up the styling or it doesn't get delivered on time, but otherwise nope.

>>9725119
>20 euros for a hinata cosplay as a christmas gift.

Hahahahahahahahaha. Not just last minute, also low-budget.

>>9725192
everything there is low budget wtb.

when you open a fundraizer for a ticket to the phillipines and try to go to japan the next month but complain it's too expensive. try extortiting your followers for more money lol.

>>9725326
Lemme guess, kimu?

>>9725343

People who talk about that kimu are like smokers who are quitting, but each day still taking that "last" cig.

>>9725304
I'd get so annoyed, I'm glad I'm not in that group. I just seeing it come around through others.

>>9725326
I've never seen anyone that good at manipulating others. She's scum.

>>9725192
It's not even for a friend, but for herself.
Someone asked what kind of cosplay and she replied with: "I really like a lot of things, so I don't care"

And another time with: "sorry, I already have this one [particular cosplay]".

>>9725428
Trust me, there are plenty of manipulative bitches out there. The whole boohoo I'm poor act is just one of them, just read the yandere and/or horror story thread. Girls that threaten with suicide etc.

>>9725428
I feel bad for the people who are actually giving her the money and opportunity to do this... You can't just start a fundraiser because you're "broke", and then shortly after travel again...

>>9725454
Where's that thread?

>>9725773
I do too and they're so blind to it as well. Why would you give this girl money when all you're getting back are some heavily edited pictures and fake kindness.

>>9725773
It's only 2-3 dudes paying €100 - €200 , never in the world would I pay that amount of money just for a cosplayer to travel with almost nothing in return. I don't think a pucture with just a handsign on it will justify such large amount. Maybe a dollar if I really like the cosplayer, but not this much.

>>9725773
>>9725849
I don’t feel bad for those thirsty idiots. Her ~manniperlayshun~ is transparent as fuck and anyone falling for it is being wilfully blind.

Not Kimu again for the love of god... Is the cosplay com this boring that all we have left to talk about is kimu>?

>>9725929
IKR? Someone mentioned shoobiecosplay as a scammer, then I asked for proof. None came, and we're back to Kimu.

We're going in circles here.

I could talk abour the girl selling her ginny cosplay for 200 euro while it looks like trash, but it's less interesting. On another note can you cancel nishicon tickets?

>>9726131
Yes, you can cancel. https://www.nishicon.nl/huisregels/

What are you guys working on? Any progress?
I want to make a cosplay for dutch comic con thats a lot of work, but for some reason its hard to motivate myself to start making it. I'm also sorta workin on other cosplays now that are closer to being finished. Any motivation tips or tricks?

>>9726151
What I like to do is write down whatever still needs to be done on one sheet per cosplay, see if you got the materials for one of the jobs and then pick that to do.
Don't have much progress to show desu, I finished a bunch of commissions in time for xmas but they're not very interesting. And during the holidays i'm not making anything.
Made a cool hearthstone box commission that I can show I guess.

>>9726151
I’m currently stuck in a rut with Nethergundam. I just carry on and grind my teeth. The moment I start painting and it starts looking like something, the hype comes back. It’s not bad to take a break but don’t make the break so long you get tight in time.

If you haven’t started at all then do another cosplay that you’re more hyped for.

Anyone here nifty advice when it comes to preparing for/feeling fit at cons? I tend to drink too little and only eat candy and/or other junkfood which leaves me with stomach cramps and a headace. How do you fit it into a busy shedule?

>>9726864
I just eat and drink normally?

>>9726864
Stay hydrated; buy a water bottle and keep refilling it once empty. Some cons don't allow you to take bottles to certain rooms or events, but honestly I've only been told to put my bottle away once in the past 8 years. Besides a Spa Blauw bottle is cheap anyway so it's not a huge problem if you have to toss it into the bin.
As for food, I prefer to leave the con and do dinner elsewhere. Not only will the food be way better, but it's also very nice to leave the hectic con environment and actually be able to relax for a bit. From Animecon it's only a 10 minute walk to a great sushi place and you also have Scheveningen just a few team stops away. Abunai has Veldhoven nearby, Nishicon is in the city centre of Almelo and so on. I mean sure you paid for the con, but that doesn't mean you have to be there non stop.

So yeah, schedule in some breaks, drink plenty of water and don't be afraid to leave the con if you want some decent food. Also taiyaki is the best lunch money can buy, so eat it!

>>9726864
I take 2 ibuprofen or paracetamol before i leave to feel good for the rest of the day, and plenty of water

>>9726864
Stick to the 6:2:1 rule.
For every 24 hours at a con.
At least
6 hours sleep
2 full meals
1 shower.

>>9726864
I always have drinkyoghurt/drinkbreakfast as breakfast, and a bag of krentebollen and water as my main source of food/drink

Why is Kaomoji crawling into Cyarine's ass? Their Instagram is literally filled with her...

>>9727402
Because she has clothing companies sponsor her for her OOTD posts. She has a lot of reach, so it's a commercially smart move.

>>9727402
They’re good friends too iirc.

tomo Brian is in the hospital again.. whicht reminds me, How are things with the gamepit crew?

Oh boy oh boy did I just hear something really funny from a Tomo volunteer

Tomocon is making arrangements to start hosting international competitions and trying to pull away the ones from Abunai! The crusade continues.

>>9728375
So ICL and/or EuroCos? If they do I sure do hope Tomo gets someone on board with the required skills, knowledge and time to properly organise such competitions.

>>9728375
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
-deep breath-
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

>>9728375
Good luck with that, Abunai doesn't even have any international preliminaries anymore.

>>9728392
First I'd like to see someone with skills in anything at tomocon.

>>9728429
Their catwalk on TomoFair A'Dam will probably be cringe again

>>9728375

I can assure you that there are no such plans in the Tomo organization. They are targeting cosplayers that are starting with their hobby, not the professional cosplayers.

>>9728417
But they do, right? ICL and I think ECC is switched between them and Animecon.

>>9728484
ICL is not coming back, so this year they have nothing. I think EC will find another event soon too.

>>9728507
Seriously?

>tfw kimu is still trying to look asian :^(

I want to try a new con this year. I don't have any expectations, so Nishicon or Dynamiccon?

>>9729669
Definitely Dynamiccon. Nishi is poorly organized, no program what so ever, nothing to do, empty dealerroom and no atmosphere......

>>9729754
Dynamiccon is just like that but really small and crowded so why bother with that one.

>>9729849
Because Nishi is indeed larger considering the available space, but there is much less to do compared to Dynamiccon. Even Formula cosplay or, sorry to say, Tomofair, offers more activities.

>>9729909
But you get the Old Theater hotel. For nostalgias sake.

Did anyone see the new Black Ring Media cmv yet? Opinions?

>>9730981
It's too fast paced and has some girls in it 4/5 times. Also the ass shots part could have been left out and instead use that time to give each costume a little more screen time. Or stick a bloopers/behind the scenes after it.

Merry Christmas gulls, may 2018 bring us all some great conventions to visit and many more meets.

>>9731356
Merry xmas!

So yeah here I am, working on cosplay most of the day because I won't see my family until the 28th.

>respirator-chan

>>9731472
I have to work starting tomorrow morning till saturday evening :/ contemplating about going to a bar at new years eve. This year just nothing happened so closing it off in an apropriate way will hopefully make it better. Sending virtual hugs to the anon above my comment.

>>9731625
Just get blackout drunk, wake up staring at a ceiling you don't recognize and get back in the giant robot.

>>9731634
I'm not blackout drunk but definitely in a 'if I'd go out, I may do something I'll regret' drunk. So instead I'm just in bed, browsing /cgl/

>>9731634
It doesn't matter how much I drink, I still have a sober voice in my head. I just start acting incredibly stupid.

Merry Christmas gulls

>>9731876
Merry Christmasu

>>9731652
I don't remember writing the 'I may do something I regret' bit, but I know I wrote the rest, so I suppose I wrote all of this...

>>9727404
She has a lot of reach but is also becoming infamous for being a stuck up cunt. I really can't understand why everyone's still up in her ass after all the shit she has done.

>>9732186
What makes her a stuck up cunt?

>>9732199
>Overal bitchy attitude
>Ruining lifes of employees/fellow artists with rumors
>Threatening wacom employees to the point of getting blacklisted by wacom
>When doing freelance work for big companies, makes her friends draw the stuff she can't draw and then claim it as her own.
>Falsely accuses anyone of stalking/bullying if they rub her the wrong way, then proceeds to stalk them herself.
>Stupid ''I'm speshul because I'm an autistic artist desu'' bs
>Expects cosplayers to make her a free overwatch cosplay because she's so important.
>Really believes she's incredibly famous and important and refuses to pay for anything herself even when she's fucking loaded with internet-orbiter cash

If you're an artist/business I recommend to stay far away from this crazy bitch. Almost everyone that did business with her got into trouble.

>>9732213
>not any form of evidence.
Anon pls provide screenshots if you expect us to believe in this shit.
Where did the claim art as her own? Where did the expect someone to make her a cosplay?
The only thing I’ve read about was the Wacom stuff?

>>9732218
Some anon spilled tea about her using her ex gfs art for a Lego job. Former classmates of the ex also tell the same story. It's concept art so it's not weird that the art was never shown publicly.

>>9732218
We've been over this several times, as >>9732220 says. I think it was a few months back when this was posted in the thread.

Posting here cause feels thread is dead, but I got a serge for Christmas! I'm so excited :D I can finally make pretty hems on lightweight material

>>9732242
Feels thread's right over here: >>9731787

Unless by "dead" you mean "inactive" I guess.

>>9732243
Meant that they've become very off topic and invaded. Anyone else get or give a really great gift?

>>9732252
I gave a Britgull who asked for 'the sweet release of death' a book titled 'existentialism for dummies'. They loved it. That was great!

>>9732237
I've been following the dutch thread since 2015 but I haven't read anything about her ex at all. Could've missed it. My bad I suppose.

Funny I originally came here to white knight many years ago.

>>9732458
Talking about this thread, didn't the version with current OP start around this year or last year?

Anyone going to dokomi next year?

>>9732645
Definitely planning to go at least 1 day. Lots of my friends went last year and I heard it's a pretty fun con.

>>9728507
If EC pulls out of abunai, they will probably stay with animecon. They have the c4 prelims at mcm, and they visit each other's events all the time.
I believe they even help out each other when they are short on staff.

>>9732643
I thought it was longer by now. I think he's doing it for 1,5yrs now or so?

>>9732645
probably going for the whole event

>>9732643
>>9732967
I've been doing these threads non-stop since April 3rd 2016, with the Discord being launched on March 29th 2017. The tripcode didn't become a thing until after I started hosting con meets as it made it easier to communicate through /cgl/..

Before me there were others who made Dutch Threads, although those were a bit more irregular. Meets were a thing as well but didn't always work out that great. I guess "make gull noises to find us" isn't as effective as having cute tulip plushies on the table...

This is likely going to be the last nishicon in february...

>>9733074
You heard something?

>>9733081
Friend of one of the organisers said it's probably going to be their last year. I could ask for a confirmation but I sort of don't want to know. I have fond memories of the little sports hall and the people I met.

>>9733119
I see. It makes me really sad to see how some conventions are having difficulties attracting the audience, get a good program and promotion of the whole event.

Hmm Sbs6 going for Tomo now?

>>9733491
Guess they couldn't find an asian cosplayer that was willing to work with them.

>>9733491
Inb4 cringe

>>9733491
I think SBS6 fits with Tomo. xDDD

>>9733905

Where is that character from? It looks fimiliar

>>9734982
That's one mean looking seagull Anon.

>>9735027
It is not mean, it is just critical.

>>9734934
It's nex from runescape

>>9735197
Ah oké cool!

>>9735027
>>9735030
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE YOU'VE JUST BEEN VISITED BY THE /AUTISTIC SCREAMING/ SEAGULL

I do wonder if any of the cons actually received OP's Christmas card...

I've gotten a lot of gifts today but I can say with honesty that this is my absolute favourite <3

>>9735836
That is one well made piece of art

>>9736288
It is and I love it dearly.

>>9735725
I don't know about the cons but I saw that Saku received one. Or maybe it was for team chaos in general. She posted it in her story a few days ago on insta.

I keep seeing 'Nishicon is ded' jokes but their fb is far more active than last year and their website actually updated(at at least for most part, didn't spot anything off myself).
I understand ppl are sceptical after last year but I'm honestly looking forward to having a decent con in the theater hotel again so let me be hopeful :')
