any tips? im the red scout in middle?
>> No. 2533
Roll up your sleeves.
Get dog-tags.
Shave.
Get a more accurate hat.
Get longer socks.
Get a belt.
Get more accurate shoes.
Paint your headset orange.
Get a pair of pants in a lighter shade of brown.
Get a tighter-fitting shirt.
Get a longer bat, and add the Sandman symbol.
Put your bag over the other shoulder.
Wrap up to the first knuckle of your thumb, but not around any of the other fingers.

and then give me the contact info of that Soldier behind you because that Black Box is kickass.

At the absolute least, yes, roll up your sleeves please. You can safety pin them so they don't come undone or you can glue yours in place with fabri-tack like I did. Works like a charm and doesn't even wash out.

Next tip is to get yourself a pair of dogtags which you can do cheap and easy at a lot of places. I even got mine custom made for something like $8 off ebay.

And as Drill said, flip the bag. Though if it's a messenger bag, I highly recommend getting or making a sling pack. And if you can't, then adjust the strap of the messenger bag to make it sit as close to on your back rather than down at your hip as you possibly can.

I can't actually see your headset too well from that angle and I know the headset can be something of a pain to get remotely accurate if you don't know what you're doing to mod one or make one from scratch. Though honestly it is pretty easy nearly regardless of what headset or mufflers you're using as a base. So give it a shot if you've got the time.

Those are probably the absolute most basic things you can do with relative ease and affordability. After that it starts to get down to nitty-gritty details. Though to be honest, those are the sort of things that make a good Scout cosplay a great Scout cosplay because just about anyone can find a red or blue tshirt and a black cap in their closet.

Anyone going to Anime Boston? Haven't been in years and it'd be cool to hang with some tf2 people. Hoping to get my femgie costume done by then.

Yeah we should. I don't really remember the convention are well, though. Where would you suggest?
>> No. 2515
Looks like people are planning on meeting at Au Bon Pain at 2pm on Friday and 11 am on Saturday so far

since Aussie cons are no where near on the scale of American ones, this thread is for all of them.

Supernova, Ozcomicion, Avcon, Manifest, Armegeddon and what have you.

i know i'll be at the first three at least

I'll be going to Supanova too - only the Sydney one though (I'll also be at Smash). I went to Armageddon once but it was really empty and very, very hot (especially in cosplay).

Oh! And I'll be dressed as BLU fem Medic or RED Soldier.

Is anyone going to PAX East this year? I'm going as a BLU femgie with a lunchbox-sized sentry. A meetup would be awesome.

Not sure if this is asked often, but I'm going to a convention soon, and I was wondering what would be a good suit to purchase for my Pyro cosplay? RED or BLU doesn't matter, though I'm a little partial towards RED. Thanks!
>> No. 2481
You can buy boilersuits on eBay for £15, which is what I did. Although it is a bit too dark.

I've seen toy guys in poundland, that could be painted to look decent, so it's worth a look OP.
>> No. 2471
For the knife, popsicle sticks work surprisingly well. You don't even have to shape one end into a point because from far away it looks like the real thing.

For my knife, I made it out of textured paper (which requires no coloring and has some good thickness to it), using a video I found on making a paper balisong. Other than that I added black electrical tape and used cotter pins to make it functional. Took me all of an afternoon to make once I managed to find the right materials (that paper being the biggest find).

The paper used was Strathmore's chrome paper, both black and silver.

I hate to get rid of any threads, but I want to know if anyone is going to DESTINation Anime in Destin on the 7th and 8th? I'm going as the Engineer so it'd be nice to see some fellow TF2 fans. (By the way the picture is the Hilton San Destin where the convention will take place.)

Wow, how about I just ignore everyone ever.

>>2417
No, it never got posted. There's no good reason why either, I just never did. If you'd still like to see it, I'll get it up asap.

>>2468
This is the first time the Sukoshi crew has been to Destin, but it's Anime South's old stomping grounds. They've been rumored to start up again, but it's been just that, rumors.
