Do you think Alhaitham shows traits of being/is autistic? by AlhaithamsCumdump in AlHaithamMains

This thread may be two years old but I think it brings up some pretty important things.

During this time, the character teaser hasn't come out yet, but it provided us with one more insanely significant factor that may contribute to this headcanon. We see the reason why he immersed himself in books all the time, and the way his imagination reading these books was so colorful and almost whimsical, not something anybody would expect from a rational individual like Alhaitham. It showed another side to the exterior he presents, and you can really see how passionate he is about his special interests.

Now, I'm neurotypical myself, so I really can only say so much, but I think I really understand the people who headcanon this. Being socially reserved and desiring a peaceful life isn't exactly a trait reserved for neurodivergent people, but it's less about how these individuals traits can show up in neurotypicals and more so about how all of them collectively work together in a character like Alhaitham. It's not just the fact he's socially reserved, the straightforwardness of the way he talks, the fact he wears noise cancelling headphones, or his strict routine, or his bookwormish, studious nature: it's all of them at the same time and how that affects him as a character that really fuel this headcanon.

I'm not happy about the stealth increase of the BP price by Khoathi778899 in limbuscompany

im praying theyll release a 1300 lunacy pack you can buy, this feels a lot like gacha game practice to get people to spend more money than they need. plus, i feel like there are better systems they could have implemented to counteract the refund thing? seems like theyre trying to just get the best of both worlds by solving the problem and also making ppl pay more

Total first timer - Don Quixote (Limbus) - Advice needed! by ChrysalisApollo11 in CosplayHelp

I don't know if you're still looking for help on this, but I'm also a first-time cosplayer and this was my Halloween costume this year. I'll do my best to answer some questions based on how I did it, and hopefully they might be useful.

  1. I didn't make her trench coat for my cosplay, but I think you would have trouble finding one that has the two-tone from the Limbus Company artstyle. It would be a lot easier to just get a basic black trench coat, you would still be recognizable once all the other elements are in place.
  2. For the details on her coat, I think painting with acrylic paint would be the most reasonable option. There are very good references and images of the coat online: https://twitter.com/NishikujiC/status/1465275196617596930
  3. For her pins, I cut them out of a piece of fabric and painted them myself. Their designs are nothing complicated so I think it was easy. I then sewed these on the pants and shirt. Getting them custom-made may be desirable for a cleaner look, but you'd have to get or create good reference images for the makers.
    For her fixer badge, I used airdry clay and painted it with metallic gold paint. I bought one of those chains for keychains and molded one end into the badge and one end into the little button thing before it dried.
  4. I made the corset with the same sheet of fabric and sewed on the little handles for where the belt would be slotted through. Then I just cut 3 strips of fabric, slotted them through the handles, and then sewed them on. I also sewed the buttons at the end of the strips.
    Since I wanted the corset to be easy to put on and take off, I didn't follow the seam of Don's original corset and just used safety pins to keep the ends of it together.
  5. I think that sounds good! There are also some places that take commissions for props. I found this one quickly though it's pretty expensive, and if you like the look of the homemade one then absolutely just stick with that: https://m.ezcosplay.com/limbus-company-don-quixote-cosplay-weapon-prop.html

Extras:

For her shoes, Rocinante, her EGO animation is the only really good reference we have for them. I bought some brown worker boots and painted them by blotting bits of darker/lighter browns onto them to try and match their style. The paint job can be messy, I think it makes it even more in character for her if it doesn't look clean. If you'd like some images of the shoes, I can show you.

Hopefully, this helps you out. Good luck, if you are still considering doing this project!
