I can't remember her name or nickname, but there was this cosplayer who did the best underwater photoshoot i've ever seen, she was Asuka, trying simulate her submerged in tang from EVA
she was really active on worldcosplay and instagram around 2018 before deleting both profiles with no explanation
>>10940502 >>10940504 i reverse searched the photo and in the results, she comes out credited as either whiskeyyhotel or jack turner, both aliases whom i searched, got a few results, and she also seemingly cosplayed harley quinn in this photo, she seemingly only cosplayed these two and in latex, which leads me to assume she's a fetish model
>>10940544 >cosplayer didn't post much >did only two cosplays in latex >Anon assumes she's a fetish model
I don't know what's funnier, the fact you jumped to that conclusion, or the fact you're not the only or first person that jumped to that conclusion, because in a pikabu.ru post with her cosplays, someone commented she's a porno model due her weird nicknames, body language and erotic poses in her shoots
Almiras something something (it was definitely that first thing + a series of numbers I don't remember She did different types of cosplays, she looked great on all of them, even fursuits, one in particular made me question my hate towards furries, she did a very good weavile costume with spandex and high quality fabric to simulate the fur, she looked really hot in it because the bodysuit was very formfitting where you could see her tits and ass
>>10940608 >made me question my hate towards furries
Kek, you're the same as the anon who simped at two cosplayers who had a fox and Krystal fursuits respectively, were actual sexy women wearing them, yet insisted he still hated furries
>>10940498 Masa D Luffy had no choice to disappear since he's literally been banned off of every social media platform. Dude trolled himself into oblivion.
>>10940666 He reminds me of that other cosplayer who got banned from most major cons in the US for the pranks he made, even those that were consented to be filmed
>>10940502 >>10940544 That's Arabella Banks, but also went by Jack Turner, CatastropheCosplay and Whiskeyyhotel through the years, she's a weird case as she's very on and off on her activities, and is constantly switching nicknames for whatever the reason, her last social media sighting was in 2019 on Instagram and 2021 at a convention in Russia, dressed in that same Asuka cosplay, according to some discordfags who are in cosplay-related servers
She did more than those cosplays, but they were never as widespread as her Asuka and Harley, so they are hard to come by if you don't know which nickname to search her by and where to look for
>>10940671 >>10940782 What happened to those two then? MJ has her socials inactive from 2020 and I could only find Arabella's FB, which is abandoned and likely has all her photos set to private
>>10940778 Still active, just changed her nickname to ChullaBelle, and like that other Anon commented about Kipi, Belle looks way different now compared to years back
Since some of you guys brought the pokemon thing earlier, one I want to mention is Scatnix, she did a lot of hot cosplays and then she did Lucario, with her sexy ass showing through within that costume
>>10940498 >>10940666 I'm FB friends with his personal account, he's still around but I don't think he's really involved in the con/cosplay scene anymore, he moved to another part of the country and became a relative normie.
>>10940502 >>10940544 >>10940671 Does anyone have further information about this cosplayer? I tried to look but it always takes me to a dead end with her profiles either being abandoned with nothing in them, or deleted. I heard some rumors that she does some porn on the side, but I can't confirm that
>>10941185 Honestly, we're at a point where I'm assuming that they either decided to lead a boring normie life, and nuked their social media presence, or they died during the pandemic.
>>10941208 >>10941208 >>10941208 Even her normie socials were nuked, according to VK data, her account was deleted last year, so I'd ditch some of those conclusions, I asked two cosplayers who were friends with her but they weren't helpful, one didn't reply to my question, while the other said they weren't friends with her anymore in a rather upset tone, meaning she did something in bad taste within her circles that might've made her quit. The only remaining accounts I'm aware of are milkteaheaven on FB and sangh3ili on Twatter, latter is locked but abandoned.
>>10941208 >>10941240 Hi, former friend of Arabella here. Tip of advice, don't bother because she really turned out to be a very unpleasant person, to the point she even ditched her close friends, who've helped her through the years, which was a shame considering she was a really cool person when we met but she ended up not being so goody-good. Me and others tried to get back at her only to find out at the last moment that around she was sexually harassed last year, we didn't want to look like insensitive dickheads so we left it at that. Probably she's rotting in a hole in Kyoto as we speak.
>>10941185 >>10940544 >>10940556 She did some adult stuff, some of it was public or leaked. Good luck finding it if you know where to look.
>>10941332 damn, what a shame i'm not sure if I should be upset by, the fact she wasn't nice as I thought she'd be, or that she disappeared because some idiot got too touch with her
>>10940667 >>10941224 Damn she's shopped to hell, hard to tell what she even really looks like now. I know a few Japanese cosplayers and they're all like that nowadays, one friend is actually a quite cute girl IRL but turns herself into a freakish alien in all of her cosplay photos.
>>10941356 I watched a live stream where she was cosplaying at an apex event and she just looks like she has ultra caked on makeup which was far more normal than the girls with clear packaging tape strapped all the way under their jaw and around their necks
>>10941332 I was in a thread from years back where she got mentioned, some anon said she wasn't too forthcoming with her photos as she was very rude and quick to jump to conclusions, it doesn't surprise me that got her into trouble. Seriously, I've met cosplayers with more developed bodies that are more approachable.
>see this thread >remember my favorite cosplayer from years ago >one day stopped posting to her cosplay ig, but kept posting to her vidya ig >wonder if she ever got back into cosplay >go searching for her >now has a website selling feet pics and used socks
Kind of bummed. I always loved seeing her post WIPs on her stories. She’d been sewing since she was a kid because her seamstress grandma taught her, so her work looked great
>>10941396 I think it's more obvious with modern cameras and screens, and also the new styles of shooping are more obvious at a glance, used to be that they'd actually have to shop it by hand and just make themselves look like a more attractive real person but now it's phone apps that give you freakish gigantic anime eyes and stuff.
>>10941612 Frosel is still active but isn't doing cosplays anymore, mainly focuses on being an instagram influencer/flaunt her business portfolio, she has completely disassociated from cosplay to the point she nuked all her galleries, with several of her photos being now lost media, even the lewds from her patreon, and even some cosplayer friends of hers, it's selfish, kind of dickish, on her part, but I can see her reasoning
there was this cosplayer with two personas, I don't remember the main one where she posted her normal cosplays, but I definitely remember the other, which was TehMidnaCosplayer, which as you guessed it, only posted herself in her Midna cosplay, doing shenanigans and other stuff like cosplaying over said cosplay, she ran a yt that she updated often and she was a TikTokker before TikTok was a thing
>>10941246 I follow her on IG. All she ever posts is weightlifting content. She's more shredded now than she was a decade ago and I think she's like 40 or something.
>>10941914 >>10941992 Makes me think of a cosplayer I dated briefly around 2007 or 2008 who was a petite girl with giant tits and later on got a lot of attention here for a Yoko costume she did. No clue what ever happened to her and I can't for the life of me remember what her cosplay name was. (Obviously I remember her real name but that wouldn't mean much.)
>>10942020 Yes, last I heard she went lesbian and moved to San Francisco or something. She said at the time that she'd always been bi and I was the only guy she'd ever tried dating.
>>10942020 >>10942027 I'll add to make it even more clear if it's the person you're thinking of, her name makes you think of Christmas. (Admittedly I think it was actually her middle name and she might not go by that anymore.)
>>10942029 I think that's her, yeah. It's been so long I'd kind of forgotten her face and I think that photo was taken a year or two after I last saw her IRL.
>>10942043 I'm not shocked if she did. Actually I MIGHT have met her through here, at a 4chan AX meetup, but I might be conflating her with another girl that I knew from those meets because that was nearly 20 years ago (I met her a few years before we tried going out) and I went through some fucked up shit after that and a lot of my memory from before it is really hazy and muddled.
Funny enough I just recently found something she gave me all the way back then, was helping my parents clean up their garage and stumbled across it.
>>10941914 adored this woman. simped for her on here, exchanged emails, she was sweet and caring. added her on myspace 2004 or 2005. about a decade later she popped up as someone i might know on FB. her page was pro abortions shit. gross. i'm guessing by now she is a they/them.
>>10942856 I didn't believe you at first, but then I saw the AI avatar with a similar face to her in those photos, looking like a dirty blonde Wednesday Addams in latex clothing, no doubt that's Arabella alright, will update if I get a response, if not, I was probably blocked trying.
>>10943403 She always had boobs. As pointed out in >>10942901 it could be cosmetic surgery, or she could just be shooping her pictures because she thinks looking like a ghoul is attractive.
Guess we can toss Sakurabrii onto the pile, after she got Zucc'ed for who knows why she took all her YouTube bits down. And apparently she was dealing with coomers going too far.
I'll say it. Russian Power Girl. Irina Jackson. She was russian_pg on instagram, I even followed her years ago. Poof. Gone. No idea what happened but google still yields some results regarding pics.
>>10947260 If this happened before the permanent VISA acquisition requirements got tougher in Japan then I can see her having decided to shut it all down and gone the housewife route if it meant permanent stay and a mostly peaceful life.
>>10949753 It's Russia so I wouldn't be surprised if she met a bad end if she was doing some """""other"""" activities besides cosplay. Slavic countries can be ruthless to random people who gain notoriety.
>>10949290 Memory fuzzy, but yes I think so. I don't remember any of the details though.
>>10949758 I hadn't thought about him in a minute. His spoiler Ignis spoiled the game for me. Rumor is he disappeared cause he got caught being an animal abuser.
>>10942489 I also wondered what happened to Zan. She had such an eye for detail. I liked that her Usagi make up looked young and natural instead of piling on layers of eyeliner and too much lipstick.
She gave a reason for quitting, something weird like she was a guest at a convention and it gave her impostor syndrome and didn't feel right or something. Didn't totally understand it but do what you gotta for your mental wellbeing I guess. She totally dipped from the public eye after that AFAIK. She was a really pleasant person tho, hope she's doing well. Holding out a bit of hope she'll make a comeback or at least show up on the con scene again but it's been so long I really doubt it :(
>>10952429 She now identifies as male. Not joking. First name on fb is Ashton now. Still a lolcow. >>10952666 Well, as long as she's not going anywhere near Russian windows, she'll be fine.
Ex-/cgl/tripfag from ages ago here, we used to hang out on that one site which was something like " Tinychat " or so where you could cam and talk, a lot of the names here was in those cgl1 and cgl2 rooms, coming here and seeing how some of them turned out is wild to me, also the fucking drama we constantly had, if anything /cgl/ turned out for the better as it is atm, I pray and hope that some of these people are better off than they were from back then though.
I remember an Asuka cosplayer from maybe 2010s, had a picture of her but lost it. She had little makeup on, probably the best Asuka cosplay I've seen.
Went on to do porn, don't recall the name. Ellie something, maybe? I tried finding the picture again, but no dice. Thinking about it makes me nostalgic, as her cosplay was really good.
Remember how funny it was when spoony hit the wall and those pictures of her dropped looking like a frumpy 50-year-old mother with huge saggy jowls so she quit the internet
>>10955044 >>10955151 I'll always kinda be sad I wasn't part of that chat. I was on /cgl/ from the beginning (even sort of before, I was involved in organizing the '04-'06 AX gatherings through /a/ and /con/) and I knew a lot of the people from the chat but I was in a relationship with a cosplayer who HATED 4chan and /cgl from '09-'13 and those were kind of the prime years afaik.
>>10955647 I have a lot of friends that run in the same circles, he's still around and seems like a nice guy. He's still active online under a different alias too
I remember that faggot, he tried to fight me over the internet because I had nudes of some other /cgl/ tripfag named Soni or some shit. No i'm not posting them but I have them somewhere lol. It got him really mad.
>>10941246 This crazy bitch used to date a friend of mine and tried to lie and say he beat her hips. All because he wanted to break up, because she was insane.
>>10962736 Even without that, cosplay's just dead as a hobby overall. Half the threads here used to be about making costumes and everybody just buys their shit now.
>>10963148 or as someone said earlier, they do it on their own volition and self satisfaction, even make a OF or Throne to make money out of their kink. >>10963153 pretty sure it's either porn or fetish in that context. >>10940544 >>10941332 found something through some circles and image search engines, Arabella is still active to some degree, and as someone of you guessed, she's indeed into kinks, got this edit, apparently from her, showing half her older photo and other where she's a gimp.
>>10963289 Are you sure they're a girl? They kind of look masculine, as their chest here and on other photos looks kind of fake and the face looks underdeveloped, as if they didn't develop much when they grew up or changed due HRT. My money is on that they're a trap/femboy.
>>10963332 100% sure she's, well, as she, especially since these photos were taken in the mid 2010s, and she's Russian, if trannies are a banned right now, no doubt they would still be persecuted back then. Leakers say she has a crossdressing fetish though.
>>10963353 Oh, so she's like gaiatheorie, she crossdresses/identifies as fluid? That's unsurprising considering that happens a lot with Evangelion cosplayers that cosplay in latex.
>>10963394 Don't forget Gesha Petrovich, whose last time I heard about them, they already transitioned from female to male, and like Gaia, they also cosplayed Kaworu.
They are likely underground or living in other country considering trannies are sent to jail in Russia.
>>10963289 Has she at least dressed in one of those big titty catsuits? I'm not into kinks yet she does kind of look hot on the right but my gripe is her squished breasts.
>they found someone they wanted to commit to >to the level of getting married and/or having children that's one thing that happens in life, you grow up, like it or not
>>10964183 hey, I did notice that some women in that are into fursuiting look like supermodels like for example, Winfoxi, who did some Disney princesses cosplays long time ago and now dresses up in her fursona, looks gorgeous outside her costume and ironically also went missing a year ago, but for a darker reason, as she's ukrainian
I remember she had a couple good cosplays that got shared around a lot, but I can't remember what her name was. I found this in my files, but I haven't had any luck finding the source or remembering her name.
considering those costumes are worth more than a used car/mid gaming pc setup (pre AI slop hogging the RAM), I wouldn't be impressed if they have a club.
>>10967901 kek, I know y'all active here because some killjoy snitched to Gaia, who in turned snitched to the group of those thots btw, about tards mouthing off their #totallynotsexual ~~fetish~~ hobby
It's a free network, we're free to criticize them as we want specially for their bad choices in their lives, especially since they gatekeep some cosplayers from getting costumes from Andromeda, and even bully some of them, go figure.
The ironic part is theres chinese latex makers mogging andromeda for a fraction the price. Then again western latex makers have always been more about the brand than the actual quality.
>>10968893 I am acquainted with a cosplayer who owns one of their original suits, their quality is superv as her suit just began having problems recently, and that was 10 years after purchase, but yeah, she's even disgusted by their price inflation.
I don't know about their current quality considering Andromeda is stuck in Russia, I assume they worsened considering their supply problems if the sanctions are in effect.
>>10968893 There are SOME chinese manufacturers that are pretty good. They are still very small productions. Yeluan or whatever they're called comes to mind. The big players (catfish, whatever replaced catfish), are not great.
>>10969046 there was also another manufacturer based in the US before they moved to more private matters by focusing only making costumes for the film industry instead of the public market with cosplayers
>>10969050 The problem lies on the fact that Asuka, on the surface, is an absolute shithead, so she attracts dumb toxic chicks that fail to see beneath her cunty facade and realize that Asuka is a terrified little girl desperate to be seen as an adult, but who in reality just wants someone to tell her she is loved.
>>10969426 >May Sakaali Indefinite hiatus I'm afraid, no one knows the reason but it was probably cuz harassment by some unhinged people in her followbase.
>>10940489 >great cosplayers they're still around for example todopokie who despite being your average e-girl whore she's the only one i've ever seen do an accurate replika cosplay with stilts most of them just wear normal shoes or boots
