I was always taught "If you/they cant fix it in 5 minutes or less, dont point it out to them" and "you can complain if youre paying to fix it" so basically unless youre going to pay to "fix" my costumes dont say anything negative about it. :)

So basically, you don't like people pointing out that you made a mistake, you can't take critical opinions, and you expect other people to pay because you aren't capable of creating a quality controlled piece of art in the first place? Sounds like entitlement to me, like you think you're entitled to only being told positive things. If you can't handle negative comments, don't put yourself on show for the masses to see.
@skystrife_gaming79495 жыл бұрын
Matthew Knight critical opinions are only worth anything if they are constructive. I can easily take criticism, if it’s constructive I’ll gladly take it and use it to improve my cosplay. But if it’s criticism just to be mean or shame me in some way I don’t want to hear it. When I work on my costumes I do what I can within my budget and available materials, I may not have either to make a weapon or certain aspect of a costume. So when I don’t have a weapon for a cosplay it’s generally because I didn’t have one made or available in time or couldn’t afford to make or buy one, if you then just point out I don’t have a weapon it does nothing for me. I can’t buy or make one right then and there so there’s no reason for you to point it out besides to make me feel bad about not having one. I don’t expect anyone to pay for my costumes, that’s part of the saying meaning unless you’re willing to put in the time and effort to fix the costume that’s not up to your standards when the person who has it can’t then don’t say anything because it does nothing for either of you. I cosplay for fun and to feel good about something I made, I don’t wear a costume to be told it’s not good enough by someone who has no clue the circumstances which I was under while making it.
@matthewknight45825 жыл бұрын
That clears up the situation a little for me, because I've known a few cosplayers in recent years -- not too many, but enough -- to know that they were often fairly entitled in how they interacted with others, or how they wanted others to view them or look at them. Its an unfortunate fact that, if you turn your body into a canvas for art, then you're going to get these comments, especially from potentially jealous women and lonely, marginalized men. Personally, I think many of you are brave for what you do, looking at it from the outside. Particularly women. I had an ex who was popular before she even started cosplaying, and beating lonely and desperate guys away from her was almost a full time job in itself. I was moreso speaking to the fact that, if you make art, art will invite criticism -- especially if it is good art. There's no shortage of people out there who will quickly pull that envy demon out and try to knock you down, this much I'm intimately familiar with.

Something that you should say to a cosplayer: -I can see your hairs from under your wig -do you want water? -I love your cosplay/can I get a picture. Reasons: -it may be something that they don’t notice and would want to fix -cosplays are very hot and sweaty, especially during summer -it’s a compliment and for someone who has social anxiety, cosplaying is a good escape (I don’t know why) and it would be nice if someone acknowledged our character.

I didn't choose to have acne, but I'm not gonna stop cosplaying because my skin is bad. Also, I know I'm shorter than the character. I'm shorter than most characters that are considered short. You don't have to say I'm short, I get that enough out of cosplay.

Odd's Nightcore It makes sense why white people don’t cosplay as black characters. Much of the entertainment we enjoy is pretty white washed, an example of this was when a white actress was casted in the lead role of a live action remake of a Japanese manga called “Ghost In The Shell”. I’m a white person, but I have no interest in trying to cosplay as a person of color because although I may love that character, I would not be portraying them in a way that would be respectful to the character. In popular media, across the board, people of color are woefully underrepresented and when they are represented, in rare cases do they not portray some kind of stereotype. So it makes sense that at some point, a person of color may choose to cosplay a character who is white as the pool for people of color to cosplay as is somewhat limited.

Eyo! Female cosplayer here! I've been working on parts for a Snufkin (moominvalley) cosplay and I get the gender comment constantly. I also get the height comment because my cosplay partner is supposed to be taller than me, but is shorter. Always suggest that they make the cosplay better and tell them how much your most expensive part costed. The ears for mine costed about 88 dollars and people quiver in fear when I tell them to do better. There's nothing wrong with being petty ;)

MsJigglypuff100 -- If I were you or your BF, I'd find a character who's missing a very iconic item in a specific episode, then intentionally leave that iconic item out of the cosplay. Or maybe wear an iconic piece of attire that's the "wrong" color, but only because some temp-animator used the wrong shade in some esoteric episode. Then, when a smug weeb gives you a hard time about not having the item or wearing the wrong color, just casually respond, "Actually, I'm cosplaying the character specifically from episode 61, hence the orange- instead of red-sash and LACK of sword -- as you so kindly pointed out.

@Mothman_In_a_T-Pose6 жыл бұрын
To continue with the inaccuracies one, sometimes things are swapped, added, or changed for medical or personal reasons. I almost always add glasses to characters because I'm allergic to contact lens plastic, but want to actually be able to see. I usually take them off for photos (which is why it's so, so, _so_ important to ask before you take a photo!), but it's still so frustrating to have it pointed out that my glasses don't match the costume. Another example is when my friend had emergency abdominal surgery about five months before a con and was still recovering when we went. She had to alter some of her planned costumes so they wouldn't constrict her torso, which meant they were all inaccurate in some form. The worst happened when she was wearing her best approximation of classic Harley Quinn; she kept the headpiece, gloves, and boots, but had to ditch the bodysuit due to how tight it was. She wore a loose, long-sleeve T-shirt and leggings to the con center and this one person wouldn't stop harassing her--calling her lazy, inaccurate, worthless as a cosplayer, etc. We wound up leaving because it triggered a full-blown anxiety attack in my friend, and it took forty minutes of her questioning her own worth, being angry at her body, and full-on crying before it had passed. So, yeah. Different reasons for different people, and don't be a dick.

Wow, totally agree with everything! Why can't people just enjoy and respect cosplayers the way they are? Because everyone of them is doing the best they can! :) My first cosplay was Yuri Plisetski from Yuri on Ice and I was really happy that I was able to wear him for the first time. Most random people I met were really kind and complimented me but a friend of mine kept pointing out that my cosplay wasn't good enough because I can't speak any russian...like wth? He also said it wasn't good enough because my hair wasn't bright enough (I didn't had money for a wig, but I have blonde hair that is a bit darker than yurios and the length was about the same, so I didn't had a problem with it at first). I also got compared to a lot of professional cosplayers with super big armours and props and told that only this can be really called a "real cosplay". I kind of know that he said all of this just for fun and didn't mean it, but it actually made me feel really sad and super insecure at that time because it was my first time in cosplay at a huge convention and at some point I started to get really uncomfortable with my cos. So please, don't mock anyone for their cosplay, even if you're just making fun! This can really make people feel insecure about themselves!

She was just playing around, but listen Linda, I'm a broke high school student, and so are you. You don't even cosplay. And her sister told me that I didn't have the right face shape. Like do you want me to tear my face off and get a new one? Maybe move my cheekbones whir I'm at it? How about gouge out my eyes and get ones that change color at will because I absolutely can not stand contacts?

And what would be so bad, if they didn't? I want to cosplay on a convention Im going to next year and the only reason why Im thinking about trying to do it myself (I cannot sew, don't how to use a sewingmaching, we dont even own one, i would need the help of my bff) is, that i have a 'weird' bodytype. It's hard enough to find clothes in a shop, where I can try if they fit and if I need a different size. But in the internet? I once bought some kinda lolita-like clothes and they fitted so bad, funnyly the other way around than i would have guessed from the sizetabelle...

Oh my god, so I worked at a movie store some years ago, and I cosplayed almost daily. The Little Mermaid was coming out of the Disney vault and I dressed up in this really simple Ariel mermaid dress I got at Hot Topic. This one customer came in and I kid you not, said: "I wanna take you home and put you in my basement." I legitimately did not know how the hell I was to respond to that, so I excused myself to the back room and didn't come out until I saw him leave on the security camera. Thank goodness I wasn't alone and was able to get away with that, but who, even if they are okay with being called sexy, would be okay with being told something like that?? He came back once when I was working alone and gave a similar comment, and it was at that point I told him he needed to leave. He was later banned from the store entirely for sexually harassing another employee. Just... ugh. Some people are twisted.

@@ChildOfTheWilderness I can agree with you there, I do not support sexualizing underage characters, and the original source material is nasty. Although not all underage characters are originally sexualized. For example, Alice, from Alice in Wonderland. So it's disgusting for people to sexualize them, or to make sexual comments to people dressed as them. (I think that's what this person's comment was trying to get at) While I can somewhat understand where you are coming from, I still think, that people should be treated with respect. So it shouldn't matter what someone is wearing, or how big their boobs are... Lol! Especially at an event with Cosplay, it's all over the place. If people can't go to the beach, or to a cosplay convention, (where people will dress like that) and not treat people respectfully, or are offended by that, then they probably shouldn't be there in the first place.

I had handmade my costume and was super proud of it at the time, but not only did I get hit on by a 25 year old man calling me "sexy" but I was also ridiculed for inaccuracies in my cosplay and and the poor fabric choice. I was a poor high schooler that barely knew how to work my sewing machine, so it wasn't easy for me to make this costume, and my confidence took a hit. Since then, I've had so many comments about being a girl that cosplays guys (half of my youtube comments are people complaining that I'm a girl when I cosplay Natsu Dragneel). I've also had people complain that I don't have a certain character that my character is shipped with or in a team with. And at that point I just never know how to respond.

I have this thing about art; similarly--I play a lot of games and sometimes I will draw my characters. Take screenshots and such to try to correctly draw everything. But sometimes I will be 'finished' and realize that the skirt was much longer or I missed the shiny metal shinguard or something... and then be very afraid people will call me out on it or think I'm not a 'real fan' or something because of what I forgot or did wrong like I wasn't paying enough attention or something. For me also it's just... they are so complicated. There are so many lines and colors and little things; and so every time I think I am done, I take a look back at screenshot or in game or someone else's drawing and realize, dang it, there's this whole other half of the armor/whatever that I didn't even notice, whyyyyy. So this is definitely a thing if I cosplay someday, that I am kind of afraid of people doing, along with gatekeeping... that my costume will not be 'accurate' enough for people and they will make comments about it. >.< Someday I would like to cosplay maybe one of my Skyrim characters, or ESO or something like that... but I would probably have to hire a costume maker(sorry do not know a correct term) to do them either way because it's very beyond me but personal and I would want to like it and maybe wear the outfit elsewhere too.

Yeah I even had someone rant why improvement comments aren't welcome and should. Dude they aren't. Unless the person asks. They tried their best and everyone has their own goal of how to do a character. ---Personally I don't mind if people do casual cosplays or full outfits as long basics are there like: Wig sitting properly on the head and maybe styled but at least fringe pined to look more like the character. (Sadly too many font do this) Then the clothes need to be a color matching the character. Rest I don't care. --- If it seems like a Cosplayer really tried but wanted to be better you can ask. It's a bit tricky to do it in a non hurtful way though. Eg you see Cosplayer with bad stitching done by hand. Maybe ask them: " hey I see you did it all by hand. Did it take long?" Then go from their answer. If they complain it took ages and the want better options ask: "do you want advice? " There is nearly always a friendly way to point out things if you must. Too many think that "constructive comments" have to be taken positively.
