“O Roses of the noble castle,
Power of Dios that slumbers within me,
harken unto thy master and reveal to us the power to revolutionize the world!”
So me and sporadicprince brought back our revolutionary girl utena to katsucon <3 we had so much fun!! We found another Utena and anthy that were just so cute!!
It was funny taking the sword picture in the gazebo cause gosh it that pose lokes SO MUCH EASIER THAN IT IS and this time i encouraged her to put her weight on me and i love how the picture came out <33
Because Sporadicprince got some heals for anthy she was taller than me and i was tipytoeing in a lot of pictures and saying “don’t take a picture of my feet” to most poeple who took pictures of us it was a very interesting day and The rose bride was giving me a lot of sass for my shortness >______>
Anywhos we had a lot of fun with our friends and in that cosplay! (i got to doll up sporadicprince a bit hehe <3) We can’t wait to bring it out for you guys again!!!

MY ORIGINAL DESIGN WONDER WOMAN IS DONE! Designed by me and created by my wifey. And somehow I got a little red dress out of it, too. The entire costume (wig and all) will premiere on 4th of July at CONvergence, I am so excited!
The only thing missing is the yellow piece but I really like this better. Man the wifey knows best <3
Good morning to the morning folks of Tumblr. In case you missed it I have a new cosplay :)
Also how did this get so many notes so quickly it hasn’t even been 24 hours yet this is nuts!

If you’re cosplaying just to be sexy then like… that’s awesome. Because you just spent weeks sewing and crafting, and/or a ton of money on materials/costumes and wigs to look awesome. That’s dope as fuck. You did something to make you happy and it’ll probably make a ton of people who see you happy. Because you know what, you are sexy. And you’re being sexy in some crazy ass geeky costume that you probably don’t even get to wear that often so rock it. Fuck anyone who gives you hate. (But not literally, because they don’t deserve you.)
YES!
Exactly this. If cosplay is about emulating characters you like, then it’s simply that: emulating characters you like. And it’s no big secret that some of these characters are skin tight wearing, big breasted, shirtless, water kissed skin from swimming, bikini top, high heeled, muscular, battle damaged, thong wearing, characters. It drives me nuts that there is so much support for cosplayers like me (black, plus sized) yet so much hate for the opposite end of the spectrum because “omg too sexy.”
Cosplay is cosplay. Period.
So remember that cosplay contest I entered on this cosplay page? Well, I won! Tiana got first place! I got my prizes and am super excited. I got:
1. A $50 gift card from Amazon
2. A sample sheet of worbla
The adorable card was a nice little bonus, but yeah, I won a cosplay contest how cool is that?!

Let’s create a couple of scenarios.
Let’s say I decided to cosplay Catwoman. Someone might tell me, “You’re too fat to cosplay her” or “fat cat.”
All right, fine. Let’s say one of the women I follow, who is skinny, says they want to cosplay Catwoman. Except their black. Someone might tell them, “Catwoman isn’t black” or “Check it out, ghetto Catwoman.”
All right. Fine. Let’s say that another woman I follow, who is skinny, and white, says that they want to cosplay Catwoman. Someone might tell them, “That cosplay is too slutty” or “attention whore.”
This right here is why there’s no point in stressing about such negative comments. Same character in each scenario, only different levels of negativity. This is why, my number one advice, is to smile and cosplay who you want
So here’s a smile from me to you
***
Bonus scenario: So then you may start to envy the male cosplayers of the world, thinking that they must have it so easy. Then you see a picture of a male cosplayer with a caption like, “He tried, I guess?” Or even see statements like, “Male cosplay is so boring” “Superman really let himself go, huh?” “What’s up with this Wolverine?”
So, everyone? Smile, on the count of three: 1. 2. 3!
