Video above shows two artists from France, Supakitch and Koralie in their collab for a mural piece on a wall in an art gallery. The talent is totally there but you just can’t deny how godlike their brush strokes are. Same goes with their strokes using a marker. Damn.

The old Star Wars fanboy in me rekindled my love for lightsabers when I watched the video of a flashmob in Times Square, Manhattan (New York City) done by roughly around 100 fans to commemorate the release of the MMO game Star Wars: The Old Republic.

I’ve nothing but praises to everyone who participated and to everyone behind this flash mob. The civilians and the Jedi/Sith cladded bunch were doing their part well. They did not falter with their expressions in freeze time.

Under the description of the tutorial size of her tips she wrote:

Although cosplay is a wonderful hobby, there are times it can bring not only joy, but also stress, anger and frustration.

Probably almost everyone has already experienced a situation where cosplay just didn’t feel fun. There are several reasons why it can happen and we tried to collect them for one simple reason:
Your hobby is not supposed to give you tons of negative emotions. On the contrary, we all are doing it for fun and should never forget it.

So these are a few pieces of advice how to stay positive and enjoy cosplay :3

How to be a happy cosplayer?

Sometimes it won’t hurt to just forget anything that’s negative and do things that will just make you smile. The people who deserve happiness are the ones who dare to be happy.

The song’s PV boasts a more darker aesthetic aimed to freak the beejesus out of the viewer. However, I can say that the PV’s animation was well directed. I’m not all familiar with Japanese ghosts and whatnot, so I can’t say anything related to the PV and the such. However, there are some good cosplays of the PV which surprisingly only a handful of them out of the teeming thousands of cosplay photos online. Below are the ones I like.

Aren’t Vocaloid cosplays liberating? You can do so much with it.

Yanderes at the first blush are nice characters liable to psychotic fits when the right situation pushed their buttons.  Conventionally, they’re depicted as cute characters who’d also freak out the audience with the deeds that makes them psycho. Their over protectiveness has gained them a slew of fans on anime, manga and imageboards.  I’m one of them, admittedly. This fandom of mine only surfaced just awhile ago.

Yanderes have their own charms, as presented by a particular niche. The “yandere trance” tag used for anime/manga imageboards helps yandere ignorants  what they are all about. In the anime, Mirai Nikki, the main heroine, Gasai Yuno, assumed the pose of her having both hands on cheeks, with eyes that will melt most characters (if not for the dark ambiance) and her mouth opened ever so slightly. With this pose, she exclaimed this to the series’s main dude, Yukitero Amano, “Don’t worry, ahn, I will protect you.” Note that I bolded out “ahn” to emphasize the dere of the helplessly love struck young lady.

Adorable and spinechilling ain’t it? Artists used that specific scene of Yuno, to make a tag out of it on imageboards which ultimately will end up a hit among fans and lurkers. They employ this on characters who aren’t even yanderes to begin with. See some of them below.

If you want to see more yandere trance artworks go to any general anime imageboard and search for “yandere_trance”. For Japanese imageboards, look up with 恍惚のヤンデレポーズ. Hope you’ll enjoy browsing through with them as much I did.

Very tearjerking. We should be feeling fortunate to spend our time with our families while others struggle to spend that one special occasion with their loved ones.

And here are, ladies and gents, are cosplays of my beloved China girl that I’ve come across.

Last but not least is my friend’s cosplay of her.

About two weeks ago, the official TekkenYouTube channel, uploaded the preview of the first Tekken animated 3d movie, “Tekken Blood Vengeance”. the 6:46 long video features four of the Tekken roster, namely the Williams sister, Nina and Anna, and the mortal father and son adversaries, Jin Kazama and Kazuya Mishima.

The fight between Nina and Anna can be roughly described in two words: bitch and heels.

To be honest, I was very intrigued in the background story of the characters ever since Tekken 3 and to know there’s a 3d animation following the storyline of some of the characters pretty much feeds my interest.

If you ask me, they look really nice. I may try practicing on some of those ’cause I plan on cosplaying some females, so in advance I will say sorry to whoever will see that. Mindfuckery guaranteed. OTZ

Next off, is base makeup for the bros out there. Luckily, the instructions are in English (you may want to click on the photo to get a bigger view).

Personally, I’m not quite satisfied with how I do my makeup, eye makeup most of all. With the tutorials above, I’m praying I may learn some stuff on improving my look when cosplaying. Just wanted to share these to all of ya.
