10:51 <@RangerZ> or something like.... warhammer might be a better example 10:52 <@RangerZ> you spend hours/days/weeks making your figures 10:52 <@RangerZ> painting them 10:52 <@RangerZ> etc 10:52 <@aestetix> Never played warhammer. 10:52 <@RangerZ> then you take them and 'play with them' 10:52 <@RangerZ> and in doing so, you get to show off your skill/creativity 10:52 <@aestetix> Why not create your own character, rather than copying an existingone? 10:52 <@RangerZ> as a tribute to that character 10:52 <@RangerZ> for one thing 10:52 <@RangerZ> plus then you have a 'common base' for comarison of others attemps 10:53 <@RangerZ> attempts* 10:53 <@RangerZ> I've never done cosplay, but I know people who do it comiccon 10:53 <@RangerZ> and I 'get' it, but I don't have the time/(money) to devote to it, let alone the skill 10:54 <@RangerZ> or either big boobs or androgynous face ;) 10:54 <@RangerZ> (those help a lot with cosplay), lol 10:54 <@aestetix> Well given that my one point of comparison is Dragoncon, one year 10:55 <@aestetix> which didn't make much sense to me at all 10:55 <@RangerZ> thats 'extremes' 10:55 <@RangerZ> hold on 10:55 <@aestetix> It seemed more like a "spring break" energy release event for teenagers than anything else 10:55 <@RangerZ> https://c1.staticflickr.com/3/2571/3773703655_070801c91f.jpg 10:56 <@RangerZ> thats "comic con steam punk" search 10:56 <@RangerZ> that kind of outfit takes a lot of creativity to make up 10:56 <@aestetix> Hot. 10:56 <@RangerZ> b/c it doesn't follow a 'character' 10:56 <@aestetix> But.... they seem to only wear that at the conferences. 10:56 <@RangerZ> and you are just fitting a 'style' 10:57 <@RangerZ> my friend would get pissed if I linked her pics in here... so I had to google 10:57 <@RangerZ> but a lot of cosplay is like that 10:57 <@aestetix> I've seen a lot of that at raves, but ravers dont consider the outfits "costumes" 10:57 <@RangerZ> ravers don't consider MUCH 10:57 <@RangerZ> let alone ...that... 10:57 <@aestetix> lol 10:58 <@aestetix> Maybe it's that it all seems really fake. 10:59 <@RangerZ> do you read fiction ? 10:59 <@aestetix> Then again Dragoncon had a lot of things which made it seem fake. 10:59 <@RangerZ> like sci fi/urban fantasy/steam punk/ or something 10:59 <@aestetix> Yes, but not that, except for things like Asimov. 10:59 <@aestetix> IE no twilight :p 10:59 <@RangerZ> ohh I don't read that crap too 11:00 <@RangerZ> but my fav. genre is urban fantasy 11:00 <@RangerZ> dresden files, mercy thompson 11:00 <@RangerZ> etc 11:00 <@RangerZ> but my point was... 11:01 <@RangerZ> I think the difference is in your 'skill sets' and 'prefs' than anything else, I just happen to have a similar set of 'prefs' just no skill set, lol 11:01 <@RangerZ> I would cosplay as something, but I don't really have anything I'd "like to do" and don't really have the creativity/skill to make the outfit the way I'd want either way, lol 11:02 <@RangerZ> but another good question is... do you know anyone who goes out on halloween costumes? 11:02 <@RangerZ> I know a guy who made the entire Halo Spartan armor 11:02 <@RangerZ> was actually usable (visor went up and down, etc) 11:03 <@RangerZ> he didn't do it for any 'reason' other than 'it was cool' and 'something to do' 11:04 <@RangerZ> I think its just not "your thing" thats all, lol, but it -does make sense- to me at least, lol 11:05 -!- SuMo_D [~sumo_d@108-193-45-205.lightspeed.gnvlsc.sbcglobal.net] has joined #se2600 11:05 -!- mode/#se2600 [+o SuMo_D] by ChanServ 11:06 <@RangerZ> hello SuMo_D 11:06 <@RangerZ> great timing 11:06 <@RangerZ> you're a good example 11:06 <@SuMo_D> no I'm not 11:06 <@SuMo_D> I'm horrible 11:06 <@SuMo_D> examples of what?
