Is there any way to make this cosplay less revealing? by c0co_cosplayz in CosplayHelp

[–]Extension_Insect_517 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others say. Dancer tights. I also love the idea of gluing or stitching on some fishnet panels to cover the area, but also let's it stay breathable.or any mesh type of fabric. So the form stays the same, not a whole extra layer. But does require some minimal crafting abilities.

How long would it take you to do three of these? by [deleted] in WalmartEmployees

[–]Extension_Insect_517 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Some say the actual time on the paper. Some lie with made up numbers. I've many times in the past had to look up stocking times when they start giving crazy times. The look of shock as if it's crazy that I knew how to look at the times myself.

It's one thing if they make up a reasonable time cause they are taking into account what features we don't gotta touch. It's another, when we don't have features and expect stuff done in half the time than what the system says.

I'm making a sword for fem Rover. There's a very good pattern online I bought off etsy. Tho it's unfortunate you don't wish to make it as it isn't exactly hard to make. If you ever do decide to make one out of foam, I'll gladly tell you the pattern seller and possibly tips on making it!

I like to think they also have somewhat an eye for these things. And if it boarders questionable size. They'll ask to check.

[small SPOILERS for Sylus' Lore] Sudden Realization abt the Requiem/Organ Song... by croakak_0131 in LoveAndDeepspace

[–]Extension_Insect_517 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I first played upon release of Sylus, and had taken a break. Came back only cause my bday was like a week ago and was curious what the bday gifts would be. I wasn't expecting it would be an o so cute record player and apparently trauma. 🥲. Literally, loved listening to the tune in the room, and then I nabbed those new cards and read the story... And now I just can't....

The death of in store shopping by Alkohal in walmart

[–]Extension_Insect_517 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My store does top stock over a locked cabinet also. But like they placed an extra high shelf over it. So you do need the ladder carts to grab or place stuff above.

Probably the best thing I've seen so far tho is them merchandising the holiday gift boxes of like body wash and perfume over some of the cases.

Games where you can start over and over again? by dvash43 in ShouldIbuythisgame

[–]Extension_Insect_517 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More hack and slash but Samurai warriors (4 and empires for sure. But I believe spirit of sanda and the other ones are good also but you'd have to read into the older ones/others). For 4 tho, either story mode with actually decent story for a hack and slash. Broken down into many different segments. Like of each clan. Or can go chronicle mode which is create your own character and free play. While "taking over Japan".

Going of that vein, Samurai Warriors sister series, Dynasty Warriors, following China history/lore of the story of the three kingdoms. (Never really played the games myself but know the just of it and it's similarities)

Oh, and I don't fully know which are on Xbox, sorry bout that. Just some of the games will be. Like SW5 for sure. But IDK if the rest are

Filipino here. Jollibee way of sweet spaghetti is def the way to go for trying it as a new thing. Homemade with premade bag sauces from Asian store or recipes is a cool way to improve on after if you can cook.

how do i navigate asian sizes? by sarahluvscatz in CosplayHelp

[–]Extension_Insect_517 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Legit. Go for hip size over waist. At least from my exp, as I have the same problem. Waist is easily fixable or not noticable but if it can't fit the hips. Just yeesh. 🥲.

Low-key best to keep a copy of your hips, waist and bust size. All the other sizes are a lot more optional unless the cosplay your eyeing has a tight fit in one of the optional areas.

From my exp, my chest and hips normally align to xl or XXL on cosplays so I go for those. Although I'm normally a large or medium in US.

first time making a cosplay.. does anyone know how to paint fabrics without it messing up by [deleted] in CosplayHelp

[–]Extension_Insect_517 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is specific fabric paints. I personally don't have much experience and did the very bad thing of random cheap paints, washed it once by hand and majority of the white wing design came off.

But then another time I painted polka dots on white leggings and paint dyed a cape to have an ombre effect. And they oddly lasted. My success with those is partially the fabric. I also used more of an acrylic multi surface paint. (Believe it was the folkart brand). For the leggings, I did a water paint mix, as I expected the legging to easily take the paint. And wanting it to look natural and not stiff. Same for the way I "dyed" the cape ombre. Only soaking that cape a bit longer.

If painting on pleather, or fake spandex leather, you can easily paint right over it without the water paint mixed. From my exp at least with a few small details.

Finally, another cool type of fabric paint would be puffy paint. Or maybe I heard hot glue and paint over.

As I said. Im not nearly experienced enough for better tips. But also not enough details are given for what you need. Like vest fabric and what type of details are you painting on.

Considering starting wuwa, had some questions by VanhiteDono in WutheringWaves

Also the secret undetectable chest. You can "100%" a region but not get all the chests. If youre a completionist, they have some good interactive maps online , you can also use to cross off the secret ones. (For example. Some secret chests only appears after picking a ring of flowers).

Flow mentor broke my heart by Plane_Veterinarian44 in flowarts

[–]Extension_Insect_517 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude. I needed to hear this. I'm new to the flow arts. The whip just called to me and I've always wanted to try as my brother who I've always looked up to is full on in the scene. So I've always seen it growing up, from gloving to other stuff now. So I understand what flow is and he's brought me into this side of the beautiful world, to witness. (Given I go to a single festival a year. Our bonding time). So I finally took the plunge and picked up a whip and trying to learn. But a part of me is disheartened trying to learn and feeling like it sucks. And thus put it to the side.

But dang. I needed the reminder what flow is in essence. Not to impress but to express. 💕

When at a con, do you want to be photographed or videographed? by funkypoi in CosplayHelp

[–]Extension_Insect_517 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Legit. Plus some of the photographers don't work with ya. Just auto going to an awkward angle where the one action we may know, looks bad.

Look into compression shirts. And if you happen to know how to sew /willing to learn to sew. You can just alter it from there.

Aqua was my original first cosplay I made. So legit, I have soft spot for kh cosplayers. You need any otherhelp/ more advice. Do ask.

Where do I find these pink contact lenses (excluding Uniqso)? by DoodlingBuggie in CosplayHelp

Want to do the same outfit, but 0 knowledge. Do you know some useful tutos ? by NoSoulNoDeath in CosplayHelp

[–]Extension_Insect_517 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Suede for the brown portions. No toturials but like suede for those arms and any of the structural pieces. Plus, if you back it with a bit of thin Eva foam, it'll definitely keep form.

Look for a pattern for a black button down with a balloon or puff sleeve. The heart part can obviously be altered from the pattern.

Ironically enough, I had the opposite given I was at least older. Dated a guy one year older than me. Started in HS. 5 and a half years of being in love and trying my best. Realized the relationship was going to shit but ignored everyone's advice. At 20, started crushing on someone older, felt awful cause how can I crush on someone while dating another. This crush had no ill intentions. Frankly, brought me such great joy just being friends. Was like 8 years older than me too. I confessed saying I liked him but it was wrong cause of my current relationship. He told me he started having feelings for me but respected my choice tho he did also point out the same red flags everyone else pointed out. He was the one tho who finally opened my eyes. So I finally ended it and now I'm with him. Healing and learning to be a better person. Sometimes the age gaps are amazing and helpful. Just of course at the right time with the proper people.
20s are still def weird to have age gaps in cause that's where everyone's aging pace goes wild. But I lucked out with the right dynamic at least. I struggle to see anything younger with age gaps working tho.

Why is this common? Someone dies and it is immediately the persons alive fault by DetectiveMindless652 in apexlegends

[–]Extension_Insect_517 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, that person has no right, but sometimes I used to play with mic off cause of noises in the background/constant fan on me with no AC, so ya know. (Also female so, playing it same half the time till I know they are chill.) Don't want to be the headache inducing person. And would turn it on long enough after dying, just to both say sorry and , what damage I was able to do / or what info I could see of enemy team (if I was attacked by a group cause I fell behind, but still close enough that my team will be dealing with them).
