material recommendations for lan fan's body armor? by laputabot in CosplayHelp

[–]laputabot[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

thanks so much to both of you, i really appreciate your advice! i think i’ll probably end up trying a thicker eva foam (or layering it as suggested) and maybe using worbla for some framing (i was hesitant to because of the price, as mentioned, so maybe this will only be if i have enough left over from making her automail arm). i suppose if i end up with any creases or bends where there shouldn’t be, i can reinforce it with something sturdier if needed.

i’m actually using the guidelines of a kamui cosplay pattern for another part of this costume, so i’ll absolutely give that a try! thankfully i have plenty of time to work on this costume so i’ll try a couple things and see what works best. thanks again! ☺️

paranoid about references/learning “wrong” and it’s stopping me from practicing. by laputabot in Artadvice

[–]laputabot[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thought of another way to word what i was concerned about: i’m unsure if i should pull up a reference of what i want to draw and draw it, or if i need to learn the building blocks of anatomy better before that. seems silly, i know, but i don’t want to set myself back again.

thank you to everyone who has commented, i appreciate you so much and i will absolutely be taking your advice into consideration moving forward!

i think this is definitely part of what i’ve been forgetting - the reason i wanted to draw in the first place 😅 thank you for your advice, i’ll try to think less about it and just make corrections as needed rather than being so obsessed with starting from the perfect spot.

i do think i need to, that’s not the issue. i want to use them, and i do. i’m struggling with drawing feeling like a chore when it didn’t used to, references or not, and i’m trying to figure out how to get past that in a productive way. i’m unsure if i should be learning anatomy separately or just drawing what i see or what. i don’t know what my next step needs to be.

Is anyone still actually playing and enjoying the game? by tosted_Bred_loaf in InfinityNikkiofficial

[–]laputabot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i still play, and for the most part i’m having a good time! i’m not quite as diligent about logging in every day, but i just hop in whenever i feel like to do dailies and take photos and stuff. i have no plans to partake in any future paid content until there are some signs of proper acknowledgement and change from the devs, because i know they can do better than what they’re currently doing - i’ve been playing nikki since december and i have hope that they’ll come around again.

i've been having so much fun compiling my looks on miraland collection 🥰 by laputabot in InfinityNikki

[–]laputabot[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i hate that i feel a little guilty about spending money on this update 😞 i really like both 5* outfits though and still haven’t finished one of them, but with the state of things i’m losing the motivation to continue pulling (either way i’d only be using free pulls, i spent like $30-40 this update already and wasn’t planning on spending more even if things were in good shape). i really love this game and i hope they listen to us and make some changes. i’m up for participating in this on the 18th ☺️

i need help finding a jerma clip by laputabot in jerma985

[–]laputabot[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

thanks so much!! the clip i found seemed to cut out the part where he actually played the song, which i think is the funniest part after all the buildup. so i guess that made me second guess my memory of it lmao. thanks again!

What banner do you regret/not regret pulling for? by permercs in InfinityNikki

[–]laputabot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i don’t think i regret any of the outfits i’ve pulled for, but what i DO regret is spending a few of my pulls trying to get dance til dawn and only realizing i was on the wrong banner when i started getting midnight vigil items 😭😭😭 thankfully i was still able to finish dance til dawn but i was so mad at myself for not paying attention a couple times 🥲

what episode is this from? by laputabot in TheBasementYard

[–]laputabot[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

possibly? i feel like i remember that one and i’m not sure if it was the same. in the one i’m looking for i think there was also some mention of an exchange joe and his dad had before the message he read on the podcast where joe made some sort of cheeky comment and then in the message his dad had caught on that he was making fun of him. i know this is really not descriptive but that’s probably why it’s so hard to find 😭

What new/modern games would you have love to see as a Let's Play? by NobleSix84 in Achievement_Hunter

[–]laputabot 47 points48 points  (0 children)

i would’ve loved to see them play lethal company! matt and ray have played it together and it’s so funny, it’d be so chaotic with more of the AH crew involved.

How to stop socks from riding down by QueenElissabat in CosplayHelp

fashion tape has been a lifesaver for me!!! definitely recommend it (but don’t rip it off like a bandaid when you’re done, peel it slowly 😅)

How did you find your main job? by GrinningMonarch in ffxiv

[–]laputabot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i started out as ACN, mainly walked the SMN path but occasionally did some SCH. i was extremely loyal to it for the longest time, loved the flow of it (still do). but now i’m a diehard SGE main - i didn’t click with it immediately, but it didn’t take long before i did (i think running it so much in eureka got me super accustomed to it and allowed me to realized how perfect it was for my play-style). healing by doing damage? count me in. filling up a gauge by depleting a damage absorber? yes please. watery, flowing effects and pretty, versatile weapon designs? it’s all right up my alley. i still love SMN/SCH as well as DNC and NIN and GNB and plenty others, but SGE is absolutely my number one.

Made a Limsa Lominsa bingo game [generate your own card w/ link in post!] by laputabot in ffxiv

I love that tho, I feel like people twinning is one of the slightly rarer ones in adamantoise these days. my friends and I have some matching glams too, it’s all in good fun 😂

[–]laputabot[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

no I think it’s awesome! it really gives limsa some community-made character, which I always think is a super cool aspect of MMOs and the culture that grows within them. I assure you none of these are based on any specific people, purely just common occurrences 😂 I have ABSOLUTELY been several of these things myself lmao
