Heya /cgl/! I made the decision to give cosplaying a try. I cant describe how much i enjoyed it, especially because im a very extroverted person. What do you guys think of my first cosplay? :]
i met another TV head at this con too! :D
here´s a spicy pic for everyone who visited this thread hehe
Glad you had a good time anon! When I dont cosplay at a con I feel like I'm missing out.
idk who the tv guy is but based for getting those 2 ethots to pose with you
>>10868293It's me inside the tv :) also thanks
>>10868293>>10868295He means the character.Ballin'.
>>10868295how did you cut a hole for your head in the bottom of the monitor if you are willing to share?I have heard some people use a rubber ring to keep the plastic edge away from your skin, and others just sand the shit out of it
>>10868278damn nice
>>10868309I removed the electronics, Used a soldering iron to cut thru the plastic because I didn't have the right saw, used pipe insulation to cover the rough edges. Got myself Plexi Glas and 3-5% tinting foil. And done!
>>10868278oh cool you have a little LED display with expressions, nice touch. i never got TV heads, what are you from? are you budget lord kanti?
>>10868385Saw a girl going as one and looked really cool. So I got inspired. The community itself is very small though. I would describe ourselves as objectheads.
>>10868275You should do the cardboard box guys from Street Fighter 6 next
>>10868275Saw you walk past me a few times, this was at Dokomi, right?
>>10871228Holy shit, yeah it was me
>>10871228my IG is @dertvhead if you wanna stay in touch :)
>>10868276Ahah nice.>>10868278Braap!
>>10868275>>10868276>>10868278>>10873626>gutting a crt to have a meme cosplaywew
>>10878737Only thing these relics are good for
>>10878754>relicsliterally better spec'd than anything modern in terms of responsiveness and colour accuracy cope.
>>10878768You do realise you're a /g/ version of a vinylfag, right?
>>10878771he's not even correct lmao.
>>10878802CRTs are good for retro gaming and occasionally retro television, as games and shows from that era were made with CRTs mechanics in mind (and sometimes used the line effect to compensate for limited graphic quality, which made 3D games and SFX look better than they actually were) and often look worse quality on modern screens as a result. but objectively? no, it's not better for anything else. it's just better at running things that were made to be run on CRTs. everything else is nostalgia.
>>10878737OP here, I made sure I bought a broken one since the refresh rate of those bad boys impeccable. I love CRT's, I wouldn't waste them.
>>10868275The little face in the monitor is super cute, nice costume! I do enjoy those TV heads as they remind me of recksnows from Geno Reconguista.
GOT A IMPROVED VERSION NOWWWWW RAHHHHHHHHH
Well thats great, why tf is it sideways.>>10879641
>>10868340Source for tinting foil? I want to build an objecthead for another event and that's the only sticking point for me!
>>10868275you're awesome!
>>10880194Hiii, OP here. Well I bought 3-5% tinting foils for cars. Please make sure they make it clear that it's 3-5%, don't buy any of that UV crap or whatever. Regular Car Tinting Foil, you'll find it online or at a store somewhere close to you.
>>10881049Wait, how do you see from in there, is the inside LED display small enough for you to look over it or something?
>>10881444Yeah, it's hard too see In there but the LED matrix in small enough to leave enough gaps to see enough. I also saw some people use a periscope.
