May the third be with you.

(HAPPY STAR WARS DAY)

Isn't it usually May 4th?

Eh, who cares? HAPPY STAR WARS DAY INDEED.

And don't you dare ask why I'm up at 2 A.M. playing video games on the computer.

Sounds about right.

I sometimes do that, myself.

because you're normal

I figure this belongs in here more than the anime thread, though I suppose it could go in both. I mean, I'm not entirely sure why I'm posting it anyways, but... Whatever.

So for whatever reason (likely because I am a completely normal human being who isn't even remotely obsessed with anything and how dare you imply otherwise), I got the idea in my head last night that I want to cosplay someone from Attack on Titan. This has since become my current objective in life, meaning I will not be dissuaded until it's happened.

The immediate question was "Who?", which I answered in all of about three seconds, because one of the characters (Bertolt) looks kinda like I do. Hell, I'm almost as tall as he is, for that matter (there's a whole two inch difference there).

The next question was "For the 3D Movement Gear, do I want the manga design or the anime design?" I'm still not sure of the answer there, because then another question (and probably the most important one by far) dawned on me.

"Wait how in the world am I going to even make the 3DMG prop? I'm not about to spend four hundred dollars on one, so I have to make this myself somehow and I'm terrible at things like this, this was a terrible idea wasn't it"

So that kinda leaves me in an odd spot, wherein this is a thing that I'm going to do no matter what, but at the same time I don't even know if I have the patience to do it in the first place - Thanks to Google I have an idea on how to do it, though. I'm going to go out to a hobby store or something tomorrow, see what I can pick up in the way of materials, stuff like that. Whether it's tomorrow or a few days from now, I figure I'll either temporarily hijack this thread or make my own chronicling my vain attempts at putting together a prop like this, because I have no doubts it will be a hilarious trainwreck of epic proportions.

Well, I suppose it could be something you save up for in the somewhat longer run of things.

JA:HOTSP and Hidden Realms are like that, yes?

I hope you have good luck with this project of yours.

You should make actual functional 3D Maneuver gear.

MyNameIsKooky · Post by **MyNameIsKooky** » Sun May 04, 2014 3:51 pm

Obviously you should cosplay as Christa. Armin did it once, so clearly you can too.

Qloof234 · Post by **Qloof234** » Sun May 04, 2014 4:26 pm

Honestly, part of my problem with projects in general is that I tend to get ideas and then pursue them relentlessly for a while, meaning I tend to end up with multiple projects at any one time. This has happened before, it's happening now, it'll happen again.

As for a functioning device... If I were a mechanic of some kind and had the budget, I admit I'd probably try, at least.

Yeah, but Armin's not 6 feet tall.

(Saying that my second choice for cosplay probably would be Armin, so there you go, maybe I can dual-cosplay)

Squish yourself to become shorter.

Actually, your post was the 1000th reply. I had the 1000th post.

OMG 1003

Yes, that's how important the number 1003 is.

So after doing some research to get an idea of proportions for the blade sheath on the 3DMG, it has occurred to me that - in seemingly every picture I can find - the blades are actually longer than the sheath itself.

This is... slightly problematic.

Huh...

I'm playing Inward Hellix and I'm stuck on level 3.

I wonder if there's a limit for how many times you can edit a post (after someone's replied), or if something happens once you reach a certain number of times... oh well, one way to find out!

StinkerSquad01 · Post by **StinkerSquad01** » Mon May 12, 2014 10:55 pm

I've edited a post about 119 times before.

Meanwhile: still stuck on inward hellix's third level yay

Wonderland King · Post by **Wonderland King** » Mon May 12, 2014 11:03 pm

Good luck!

Also, you can't "double edit" the way you can double post, which is annoying, to say the least.

Jutomi · Post by **Jutomi** » Mon May 12, 2014 11:08 pm

I am kind of looking towards a fairly plausible number of available edits.

That's how I keep my level list updated.

Wonderland King · Post by **Wonderland King** » Mon May 12, 2014 11:09 pm

I've already edited it 41 times in a little over 5 minutes. If that's how fast you make levels, then...

Jutomi · Post by **Jutomi** » Mon May 12, 2014 11:18 pm

Honestly, I'd love to be able to do something like that.

Alas, I have had a bit of a motivation block(not a major one, thank goodness, but one, and rarely the less), but I can still make levels; I just hope they're of as good of a quality as before.

I much prefer quality over quantity, and it's a shame to have one and not the other.

However, I feel it's just as bad having neither.

Wonderland King · Post by **Wonderland King** » Mon May 12, 2014 11:51 pm

63 edits, and I finally found a fast way to do it! Press submit to edit it, then backspace to go back to the editing screen. Submit again, backspace again, etc.

EDIT: I beat SS01's record!

I'm scrambling to finish a huge project that I'm presenting tomorrow. Hooray.

PROCRASTINATING RULES

No, seriously.

There was a big project in geography last year that counted for 25% of our 4th quarter grade. I got a tiny bit done when we worked on it in class, but the rest was saved for the Sunday before it was due. And a 97 isn't a bad grade, don't you think?

Well, good luck!

StinkerSquad01 · Post by **StinkerSquad01** » Tue May 13, 2014 3:42 am

Hehe, thanks. I only have to work a presentation and then tie up some extra stuff and I'm done.
