Inspire Me Cosplay

This is an area I am going to use for ideas and getting started on cosplay. Pictures, ideas, anime favorites, and fun stuff will be happening here! So Let's all have a blast!

Turtles always keep you entertained. Walked in on this beautiful setup.

If you’re someone who wants to make original stuff for people to see, DO IT!!! 

Your worth as an artist is not determined by the number of Tumblr notes you get. Followers are NOT a currency. Don’t worry about instant gratification, because you’re creating something only you can own for the rest of your life! It will take you longer to build up an audience around something that doesn’t have a pre-loaded fanbase. In fact it’ll probably take longer than you think, but you’ll have a much more satisfying artistic career.

I never realized the original comic could have been taken as “well mashing up popular stuff gets more views, guess I’ll ditch my original ideas and do that instead.” I just took it as “yeah it’s a pain in the ass that that’s how it goes.” So I like this response a lot. I have nothing against parodies. I just have no desire to make them myself. So I keep at doing my own characters and ideas even though it’s just a small handful of people who care. And any young artist with original, unique ideas should do the same! Even if it feels like no one’s looking, it’s far more respectable than ditching it entirely to make an entire YouTube channel dedicated to “whoa hey what if five nights at Freddy’s met Pokemon!?” I mean, hey, you wanna do some stuff like that, cool, but don’t entirely ditch your original creations in favor of something with a built-in audience. We need more people to create new and interesting characters and stories so the internet stops getting overrun by that in the first place!

I very much prefer this response over the others I’ve seen in. It’s accurate and not snarky. In addition, whenever you do original work, it’s often influenced by things we do fanart of which means often it’ll spill into our original work. Your original work will often carry a certain “spirit” of those things you’re a fan of and eventually people who came for that will also stick around for your original work. 

Thank you for making this comic.

“Respectability” is overrated.

Integrity probably isn’t. It’s a pretty good comic.

Second day at Daisho Con 2015. Me as Tohsaka Rin with my own spin to it. It was fun.

Jack & Sally as Joker & Harley November 1, 2015 4:24pm Comikaze Day Three Canon Rebel T3i ISO-6400 23 mm Focal length Shutter Priority No Flash

These guys are by far my favorite mash up of Comikaze weekend. I’ve met Belle as a Sith Lorde and I’ve met every color Boba Fett imaginable, but none can compare to this lovely duo. Jack is all dressed up in a Joker themed suit, and green hair to match. While Miss Sally has on her infamous pig tails and mask. The only thing I’d do differently is maybe add a little Harley Red on her dress and I’d give this an A+

Daisho Con this weekend! I can't wait, it will be my first con I've ever been to! I'll be wearing my kangaroo kigurumi and a different kind of Tohsaka Rin cosplay. I put my own kind of spin on it. I'm so excited! I hope to see you there! :3
