[CaptainRisu]

do you have a reference picture?

[UrMastrInuYasha]

Second. but from what I can tell, it looks good.

[phantomthief]

O_____________________________________________O

XDDDDD That's amazing. It was a little shocking to see, but the zentai suit was a very good (and polite) choice for a sailor moon crossplay. (I've seen just a FEW too many hairy Sailor scouts >.<) The leopard print... That may be another matter entirely, but to each his own.

Very nicely done :3 Though I'd suggest trying to shape the tiara into more of the 'V' shape rather than it looking like a headband.

[Usachan]

This is going to bug me if I don't get it off my chest to comment. I am just
curious to know why you chose to cosplay as Sailor Saturn. I admit what I
see scares me, but I also know you have guts to do what you are doing
with this cosplay. I hope people won't try to strike up too much critisim
or critize you for your orginality and you continue enjoy cosplay in the future.

[TETSUYA_CASSHER]

I felt the colors looked better with the leopard. Why does it scare you?

[TETSUYA_CASSHER]

i still need to add boots

[Castella]

I'd also like to see a reference picture if you have one, since I'm not familiar with this style of sailor uniform (or the leopard print!)

I think you did a very nice job on the gloves and the collar. I would suggest ironing the bow and the skirt, as they look a bit wrinkly. And, as phantomthief said, maybe try and make the tiara more v-shaped.

[phantomthief]

The colors go well, yes, but anything with leopard print is just a bit scary X3

EX: Ayame from Fruits Basket. The purple fur coat. Oooooooooooh boy that was something...

I don't know... It's probably because animal prints are usually associated with furniture, exotic dancers, and Gackt.

~Ari-chan

[TETSUYA_CASSHER]

Thank you all for your comments i will make the mods and try to have pics updated this week. The reference pic would be sailor saturn but this is an orignal idea i just hope it looks more cute then scary.

[Usachan]

Yes I said scary...I love orginality when it comes down to costumes, but I
worry about the many stares and pointing of fingers when you debut your
Sailor Lepoard Saturn at a convention. But if you feel confident enough to
go to a convention like that, I think you really do have a lot more guts for
doing so. I think it would be interesting, just be sure if you do debut your
costume to a convention, you make sure it's convention friendly approved,
and rule acceptable. I have seen too many costumes go horribly wrong by
people not following the guidelines. Otherwise have fun debuting this cosplay.

[TETSUYA_CASSHER]

Well in terms of decency is it way off base? An the con i am debuting it at is katsucon.

[Usachan]

Well since you are Sailor Saturn, you may as well be the best Sailor Lepoard
Saturn you can be. You say you will add boots, that's a start. Also maybe
include a star brooch, which resembles Pure Heart Crystals if you look at
Saturn. Also, seeing you chose Sailor Saturn, she has a Glaive which is
very powerful being as she is the leader of the Outer Senshi. You might
even consider a short black wig for her hair. If you plan on doing hair and
if so I suggest here: http://forums.cosplay.com/showthread.php?t=101786

[yamibakura03]

i think going creative and orignal is great. i like it, and phantomthief is right. hairy sailor scouts arent very pleasant to see . >>

[Nagisacureblack]

Waaa!!! Sugoi kawaii, soooo cute! i loved specially the idea of a new sailor scout ^_^ . How about adding only some cute fur to the ears and maybe do purple boots with a trim at the top of fur(leopard) too ? kind of like the sailor luna's boots. I just love your idea.

Thanks next weekend i hope to finsh.

[kojirojames2004]

Frankly, I'm scared!

[calen383]

Frankly, I'm scared!

I think I have to agree with you on that one.

[TETSUYA_CASSHER]

Why are people scared. I am really worried.

[kimuhaluさん]

I don't know why people are scared of this. It looks nice, and great original idea. :) I also see nothing indecent, so you'll be fine. Go have fun.

[TETSUYA_CASSHER]

Cool its just that i want to do something cutesy and i dont want to be avoided at cons cause i am scary.

[KawaiiKawai]

Kowai desu nee!
It's definitely not what people expect, but it's very tastefully done. The leopard adds just the right touch. You may not earn "Prettiest scout" but you'll certainly be in the running for most original scout....

[marsie]

Cool its just that i want to do something cutesy and i dont want to be avoided at cons cause i am scary.

It isn't scary. I think it is orginal and ballsy.

I see no reason why you would be called on deceny(you are fully clothed)

I would like to see fuzzy ears and tail. If you look at Sailor Luna from PGSM I would try adding some of the accessories from her outfit. Pink fluff would be REALLY cute with this outfit.

Don't ever let anyone's opinion sway you from cosplaying what you want.

[mnlghtknight]

hey sailor crossplay is awesome XD I did it at fanime, u just gotta go for it don't chicken out :P

[Kirin-Riki]

yuss! crossplay at it's best!

none of this fussing over right makeup and such, but someone crossplaying because they enjoy it.

[crowbarzero]

Fix up the bow and the headband as was suggested, other than that, it's kindof funny I think. Usually dudes crossplaying is kindof scary, but this is just too out there, it's funny.

[NissaElf]

I can't help but notice that skirt looks like it is clinging to you. Perhaps put something under the skirt or line it with something that won't cling to your suit?

[Bagu]

To be honest, I think you're going to get plenty of reactions from it...some positive, some negative. If you're fine with that, there won't be a problem.

If you had gone the crossplay route, and of course went the full 9 yards and saved your legs (cuz we all hate the hairly legs), you'll be fine because its an accepted trait these days...I think the leopard tights just creates an weird/off factor, and will make people think you're intent is to goof the series (like the infamous Man-Faye).

I don't want to offend, because I want you to have fun. Just expressing my opinion.

[Sonic Man]

Why are people scared. I am really worried.

...Because folks aren't used to seeing something as unique as your Cosplay. With that being said, the leopard skin zentai is a nice touch for what it's worth.

[~daisysakura~]

Ah, people are just frightened by things they're not used to seeing. :p I like the originality though! ^^ And the leopard print suit.. How'd you make it so tight?? o.o It looks like it could be skin! Just a thought, but maybe you could also add a tail? I'm not sure what you'd make it out of, but you look experienced, so you can prolly think of something. lol

[Sonic Man]

One Word: Spandex. Aaahhhhh the wonders of Spandex! In fact, Tetsuya showed me pictures of that leopard suit and it *DOES* have a tail. Kinda neat if you ask me.

Really? Hmm.. I couldn't see it in the pics, but if it's already there, then that's good. :p

[Sonic Man]

It was either not visible from the angle of the shot he took or he tucked it in somehow.

[TETSUYA_CASSHER]

Well the con is past i got some good and bad comments, 4chan is blasting me. Final pics

[Killmesarah]

I think it's dreadfully awful. But I think you know that already.....

[Ororo Howlett]

And here I thought this section was supposed be about constructive criticism. *sigh*

The only problem I see are the sneakers. Purple boots would've looked much better.

[Cinnamon_Spider]

You want to talk about constructive criticism, go tell that to all the people spewing crap like "kawaii or SO CUTE"

Atleast Killmesarah is being honest in her opinion, too many people on this website kiss each others asses. It could have been more "constructive" but why bash on her when so many people are saying just as usless things.
-----------------------------------
personally I think you should have used a stiffer material for the sailor outfit the satin just makes it look messy. and the socks totally kill it.

[Sonic Man]

You go, Cinnamon_Spider! There's nothing better than honesty because honesty is the best policy. Stop kissing each others' asses here and start posting what's on your mind instead of being so afraid.

Now, I will say that it is an interesting crossplay. My only gripe are the tennis shoes, but Tetsuya told me he couldn't get the boots on time for the convention so he had to make due...

With *THAT* being said, I will say that a lot of Tetusya's bashings (from 4Chan mind you!) were bashing the leopard skin zentai. What's so fricken wrong with Spandex people?! He's at least brave enough (with his overall girth, too) to go out like that. It's a bold statement that either gets yayed or nayed.

I certainly hope that y'all are honest when I post my first pics of my Sonic Man cosplay. Yes, while the character's original, I want honest opinions, not your typical "ZOMG! LOLZZ KAWAII Sooper Kyoot Sooper-Heroe!" or I'll simply ignore it unless someone backs it up with a good explination as to why they find it to be cute or a good cosplay. ...Oh, and just so you know?? I'm going to make this with Spandex ...Yes, SPANDEX because it feels so damn comfortable to wear at a convention as opposed to something bulky and combersome.

LOL, you make me laugh.
I'm not bashing on anyone nor am I trying to start a petty fight. All I'm saying is, if you wanna say you don't like it, could you atleast point out why. I thought it was rude and pointless to simply say "You fail" without stating why, especially when that's why Tetsuya posted in the COSTUME CRITIQUE section in the first place.

PS- In my "honest" opinion, it's a very original idea. It's not my particular cup of tea, but Tetsuya's not here to listen to why I wouldn't wear the costume myself.

[Sonic Man]

My point exactly. I'm not trying to start a flame war because that's not what critiques are for, they're for your honest opinions on someone's cosplay. Tetsuya showed me a rather poorly done Captain Planet from the convention he attended last week. While I thought it was bad, I am not going to bash it to death with poor grammar.

Example: I didn't think it was all that good. Superheroes aren't supposed to be saggy, but skin tight. Think about it. This is why I don't ever do the retail Wall*Mart Superman thing because Spandex is what makes the superhero so special, not something you buy premade at Wall*Mart (or Circle K for the matter) that you wear over your street clothes, especially when it comes to superheroes.

It gets the point across, but in a tactful way people.

Atleast you gave him your reasons for thinking it was a bad cosplay. Just saying it's not good, isn't telling Tetsuya what he needs to hear in order to improve. He's getting enough of that on 4chan.

I just love that because I'm not being negative, I'm "not giving my honest opinion".

[Killmesarah]

Fine, here are the very obvious reasons that I think it's no good:
-BAD concept. Outfit doesn't look anything like ANY character from Sailor moon, let alone Saturn.
-Shoes, didn't even try (socks too?)
-Fuku is made of SATIN.... very shiny, wrinkly satin. The bow doesn't look interfaced, but I could be wrong.
-No wig
-Unpleasant to look at- and I'm being honest here. I don't think the 'costume' is funny, interesting, unique or anything good. You MUST be joking if you say you were trying to be serious wearing this. I doubt any self-respecting drag queen would even go as far as to wear this outfit...
-If it is an 'original design' did you make a concept sketch for it? How about a pattern? What exactly are you trying to convey here = what IS the concept?

That should be enough reasons, I know my original post should have been longer, but I didn't want to be too mean... but, I'm being honest, and thats what you want, right?

Obviously you were either to flustered to completely read what I had wrote, or just didn't care enough.
BUT I wasn't saying YOU weren't being honest because in fact, you were.
Its just the only time something like this is pointed out on ANY part of this board is when someone isn't being all puppy dogs and kittens.
It just so happend to be you who pointed it out
I infact said what she had wrote wasn't constructive I was just commending the fact that she was being honest.
You shouldn't have taken my post that personally.

Anyway I have to think/expect the girls saying "KAWAII" are 15-17 and do they really think a large man with a five o'clock shadow in a leotard is "adorable"? No.

[Angathol]

I'm confused. If the title of the thread is "Crossplay Sailor Moon," why are you wearing a Sailor Saturn costume, and why didn't you shave, thin out your eyebrows, stuff your chest or do anything that would make you even remotely resemble a woman? Crossplay isn't simply someone wearing a costume based off of a character of the opposite gender - you need to actually try. This goes for girls who don't bind, too.

That and the leopard zentai thing makes my brain hurt. I still don't get it.

[Mesoian]

In before "Girls hugged me!"

[CherryBomb]

Yeah.. it's hard to find the costume funny or original, just because the combination makes no sense.

As you said earlier, the only reason you chose sailor Saturn is cus the colors matched. But saturn is such an uncommon character (as opposed to Sailor Moon herself) it makes me hope you had some meaningful kind of reason for making her into a leopard. Does that make any sense? It's like watching an all star cast movie with no plot or storyline. The fuku is fine, the leopard suit is fine, but putting them together is not very pleasing to the eyes.
It's not random in a good way, its random in a "Hey I want to wear this leopard thing to an anime con so I'll just throw this pre-made anime costume over it!"
You need to have a vision or a concept before doing things.

oh, by the way... I think Your tiara is on upsidown. :P

[Sonic Man]

Hey, c'mon you guys! Where's the love here?! This is supposed to be a friendly forum, not an All You Can Bash Buffet?!

[CherryBomb]

Did I sound like I was being mean? :confused: I don't want to sound like I was bashing or anything, just being honest. :angel2:

[Sonic Man]

CherryBomb, there's a difference and a fine line between honesty and insult. That's my friend you're talking about. If you insult him; you're insulting me, too and frankly, I don't appreciate what's going on here or at 4chan. I might not agree with doing crossplays myself, but he's still a human being, dammit!

I say lock this thread before it progressively worsens.

[Kanira]

Strange, there are no insults here. There are opinions; this is a critique forum after all, not an obligatory-compliment forum :)

He posted asking for a critique on a costume he had no part in making himself. This means the only thing he can be looking for is an evaluation of the concept; which, it has since been determined, is illogical and unneccessary as applied to cosplay.
This is not a personal vendetta or flame--it's an observation ^^

[CherryBomb]

Sonic Man-Sorry if what I typed sounded cruel,( It would sound way better if you heard my actual voice) I'm not yelling at anyone. My rambling overuse of illustrations tend to make me sound harsh sometimes. It's nice you are sticking up for him! ^_^

Tetsuya seems like a nice guy and his costume does not anger me in any way. This is a costume critique thread and I honestly just wanted to know If he had any real reasoning to the combo he chose to do, Just to clear up all the misunderstandings. Pretty much that's all My post is talking about. This is the same question I posed before in another thread for this costume, but my question wasn't answered.

*hopes nobody else gets offended!*

[Sonic Man]

CherryBomb, it's cool.

Tetsuya is a great guy. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have known where to get a good priced unitard and leotard for my first cosplay.

[Killmesarah]

This is very true.
The purpose of a 'critique' is not to be pleasant, it is to be honest.
I have nothing against dude, and I don't feel I have insulted him. I'm giving an honest opinion, which he ASKED for.
Now it might be a whole different story if he actually had made the entire costume by hand... if there actually WAS a concept here.

And no one's saying 'give up on cosplay' or anything like that. Critique can be very useful in becoming a better costumer- if that is what he is trying to be. But from what I, and a lot of others gathered, it's hard to believe he poured his heart and soul into this creation.

[Sonic Man]

Oh, I agree. I'm going to let you in on something... Go into my "Costume Designs" thread that I created.

While I did draw the characters (of myself, mind you!) on Adobe Illustrator 10.0, I did buy premade stuff, like the leotard and unitard. The leo' will be modified somewhat upon arrival. I'll be more than glad to post some pics in this sub-forum when I have made enough progress on my cosplay.

This is rather interesting. It seems you have two c.com accounts, use one to post controversial threads, and the other to defend yourself :)

[Ororo Howlett]

Oh, the drama.
Cinnamon_Spider, I felt your comment was directed at me, therefore, I take it personally. And I never said to "play nice" or "bite your tongue". My comment was meant to get killmesarah to explain her dislike for Tetsuya's cosplay. Without giving her reasons, it sounded more like a diss than a critique. She explained why she thought it was a bad costume and I have nothing more to say on that matter.
Like I said before, I refuse to involve myself in petty arguments. It seemed to me like you were trying to churn up shit, something I really don't care for. My apologies if you didn't really mean to.

[Sonic Man]

This is rather interesting. It seems you have two c.com accounts, use one to post controversial threads, and the other to defend yourself :)

Excuse me?! Who are you to say that about me?! Listen, I don't have two accounts here, I'm Sonic Man and Sonic Man *ONLY*.

Number One: Tetsuya and I are two seperate entities, just check our IP addresses if you still don't believe me.
Number Two: I have yet to get my first costume done and I was only directing folks to my thread for opinions, despite the damn thread being dead.
Number Three: Controversial?? Hardly! :mad:

I think Kanira owes me an apology for the assumption that I'm Tetsuya, when in reality, I was just sticking up for my friend. Shame on you.

Can we please lock this thread?? I'm really not liking where this "Critique" is going.

[~daisysakura~]

Wow, this is weird. >_< The dude wanted for people to critique his costume and instead, some of them are critiquing thier critiquing. o_o;

But yeah, anyway, I also agree the shoes have got to go. lol But I understand if you couldn't get the right ones in time. :p One thing I must ask though... Why does anyone even bother to post anything on 4chan? I've never been there, but it looks like the entire site is pretty anti-cosplay unless you're a skinny blonde twig cosplaying in some skimpy outfit or something... I just don't get it... Most likely, they'll bash you even if your costume is the best on Earth, so why bother at all?

[vampirate]

This idea has baffled me from the beginning and I still don't get it.

First off I see no evidence of trying at crossplay. I'm not a crossplayer myself but I would think male crossplayers would at least shave and wear makeup and a wig. This makes me think more of cosplayers like Sailor Bubba(except not funny) than serious crossplayers.

I'm all for originality when it makes sense. But I cannot think of any reason why a leopard zentai suit and a Sailor Saturn fuku would go together...well, other than to clash as much as possible and make a great big cry for attention. And the fuku colors aren't right. Sorry but I love the Sailor Moon series and to me this just doesn't suit Sailor Saturn at all.

The shoes also bother me greatly. If the boots couldn't be gotten in time at least something nicer could have been worn than tennis shoes and socks.

[Ororo Howlett]

Personally, I think 4chan, CosFu, and catsonmars should die screaming. But there are some folks that will defend those sites like they're actually a valid internet resource. Some people get off on dissing others.
I can't answer for anyone else, so I honestly don't know why someone would purposely subject themselves to that kind of ridicule. I know I have no tolerance for such behavior, online as well as in person.

[calen383]

Honestly? I see this entire thing as a cry for attention. I know almost all cosplayers love the attention their costumes get them, but this is pretty blatant and I think that is why it is bothering everyone. As many have said, this costume's concept is strange or even nonexistant. None of the costume was actually made by him. So my question is:

If he didn't want people to critique his concept (that means good and bad), and he isn't eligible for a critique of the craftsmanship, why does this thread even exist?

[KittyNyanNyan]

Persoanlly I like the concept. Although none of you amy have meant to come out mean, reading all this has made it seem like a "Let's say bad things and cover it up with critiques!"

He's brave to do that at all, as many crossplayers aren't. All of that, thinning the eyebrows, ro shaving and stuff, it's not necessary. Not everyone takes cosplay as a hardcore thing. It's supposed to be a <B>fun</B> hobby.

Many people here are taking this too seriously, and after someone else has said what you've wanted to say, don't reiterate. He probably already gets the idea that some people just don't like his costume.

And all the accusing here has got to stop. He's probably stopped even reading this by now.

[Mesoian]

This entire thread is pure comedy

[Cinnamon_Spider]

A critique isn't just for people that like the costume and feel it's necessary to tell him so. It's also for people that think there is something a little off, or completely out there. If you post your costume in the critique section don't just blatantly expect everyone to like it. Because that isn't a critique at all, thats someone saying "great job" and thats fine, it should be encouraged, but leave that to the gallery viewings thread. I don't think telling him his outfit is a cry for attention is needed, but if thats their opinion then thats how they feel and no one has a right to tell them not to have it.

I don't think anyones said anything too offensive.

I think this thread has turned into a "how to critque thread". :/

Good for you! I'm so glad someone besides me stepped in to say something about all of this crap! I'm sick and tired of where this is going. Why can't we just leave it the hell alone! :mad: :mad: :mad: I take my hat off to you, KittyNyanNyan because I *SO* wholeheartedly agree with every word you said here. For all our sakes, **GET*OVER*IT** and move on! :mad: :mad:

Are you confused?

First you agreed with me to tell people to be honest, then you agreed with Nore_Hime that just because people weren't negative doesn't mean they weren't honest And now you're agreeing with someone who obviously doesn't understand what a critique is. Please to be making up your mind now....?

You're obviously just angry because someone accused you of being the person we've been critiquing. And just because someone does that doesn't mean the thread should be locked. YOU should get over that. If it's not true then who cares just do as I do brush it off. *brush brush*

I think this is a good example so people can learn that just because a handful l of people don't like their costume doesn't mean it's the end of the world, and if they can't take the truth then don't ask for someones opinion. People need to understand THIS PART OF THE BOARD ISN'T TO EXPAND YOUR EGO. It is to listen to others advice and either take it or forget it.

You seem to have some anger issues. This is not your costume right? So then why don't YOU stop trying to get in arguments with people who are giving honest critique, in which the original poster ASKED FOR HIMSELF!!???

A few people like it, most don't. Accept it, and move on.
If you have something to say to anyone personally, take it to PM.


Does the ORIGINAL POSTER have anything to say??

Sorry I'm late to the party, but just to throw in a couple of cents, I'd say that the idea actually is rather creative. As an old attendee of sci-fi and Star Trek conventions, the concept of parallel worlds originating characters can make anything go together. So a zentai leopard skin and Sailor Saturn can make purrrfect (sorry) sense on that planet the Thundercats came from!:rockon: As some others have already mentioned, purple boots would have really closed the deal. It's always risky to do something different, but I think that must be part of the fun too.:)

Okay guys, I think that is enough of that. The drama is overflowing in this thread. Let's call it quits, okay? Otherwise the arguements will never stop.

I apologize for sounding angry, but I don't like it when friends get chastized for something so insignificant as a crossplay or something as unique as this.

I do agree with Cinnamon Spider about honesty, however, there's a way to be nice about it.

Well, I don't know what Tetsuya has to say about it now, but if someone doesn't want both good and bad critiques(or you know, personal opinions) then they shouldn't ask for them.

I think normally we critique craftsmanship and accuracy, but since the craftsmanship isn't an issue here and the costume is so um, different of course there's going to be a whole variety of other things people are going to have opinions on.

Cinnamon_Spider is right about the gallery viewings thread. If it's important to you only want people to say nice things about your costumes then that's the place to be.

And it has been my experience that everyone tries to be civil on this forum. Sometimes it's just hard to read emotions through type and things can sometimes get misconstrued.

[Sonic Man]

It just means you need to be thick skinned online. I should talk, but I was talking on behalf of Tetsuya, whom really doesn't care about this thread anymore to be honest.

Sonic, I don't think we need to assume that you're another Sailor Bubba.

[Sonic Man]

WTF?!?

Okay, I'm gonna pretend you didn't say that. :razz:

[KnuxieChan]

Sonic Man, it's pretty obvious you're Tetsuya. Because Tetsuya hasn't posted once since you appeared, and you're acting offended about the critique he's getting.

And about the costume, to me, it's freaky. Original concepts/characters usual suck. And adding a full-body leopard print leotard suit to ANY costume is freaky. Especially when it's worn by a male.

[Kouta-kun]

Sorry to say, but it looks kind of really bad. Kind of hurts my eyes to look. As the others have said, shoes are bad, though I do understand the circumstance. Also, you have a HUGE shadow of a beard and mustache, which doesn't go well with a crossplay.

Shippo about sums it up for me.

Say what you will. I don't care at this point, in fact, this will be my final post in this thread. Good day to you all.

As long as we have your permission to have opinions, I wanted to point out that you misspelled enthusiasm ^^

[Sonic Man]

Thanks! All fixed now. :)
