Uh before we get started, I’m going to introduce to y’all the judges. know who they are. But first, um, we have a little special surprise for you guys. Um, courtesy of Baby No Money. Hold on, I need to play him his song. Scotsman. All right, you can turn that off. No, that was that was good. That was good. Hell yeah. It’s nice to have you here, Baby No Money. A big big member in the cosplay community, of course, and uh well-known musical artist. Uh, chat, say say hello to him. Hello everybody. Hello. Hope you’re having a fine dandy Friday. It’s Friday today, right? It is Friday. Yeah. Unfortunately, um all the other judges are remote, but that is part of uh the selling point that I had at least with uh with soda. Uh hello guys. They can they can see you all now. Everyone in the car. We’re all here. Yeah, we’re all we’re all here. Hello. Listen, you were you were going to do like an introduction one at a time. I didn’t want to say anything. I had to sneak back in. Yeah. Well, yeah. Well, uh, we didn’t have a lot of time to to set this up during the intro, so uh, uh, we’re kind of rushing it a little bit, but yeah, of course, um, as we’ve done in the past, uh, we have, of course, the legendary Jessica Nigree with us, uh, cosplay queen, of course, and first time on the show, we have uh, Mr. Soda Poppin. Soda, you got to stop being nervous, Emmy. We got to lock in. It’s going to be the best show you’ve ever done. It’s $100,000. People have really high expectations and you need to not [ __ ] it up. So, good luck out there. Yeah, that makes me feel a lot better. Soda, thank you. That that does mean a lot. So, Soda, I don’t know if you know this, but um actually uh the reason that my chat asked me a lot to invite you to this is because there was a clip of you saying that you think that cosplay I don’t remember what you said. Do you remember what you said? I said cosplays are stupid. I said most I said co I said listen I I can say it all again you know because I I just someone rew or linked it to me. I think cosplays are overall mostly dumb because I see a lot of the cosplays and they’re like this big old Optimus Prime with like massive shoulder pads and it looks great in the picture but then I see the video and their [ __ ] plastic is like clanking around and then their leg falls off and it’s like that’s just ridiculous. And then the other which is cool fine great pictures. pictures are great. Don’t ever show me the video. And then you got softcore porn. It’s just a [ __ ] reason to justify doing it. And then I told him was bad. I did tell him. I I’ll be honest. I don’t see much else. And I’m here and I’m here to see the talent. I want to see the passion. Uh you know, I’m ready to see awesome cosplays and really dive deep into this wholesome, great community of cosplay. What I was going to say today, today we’ll we’ll change your mind, but Soda is basically our our Simon Cowell for today. And of course, last but not least, we have the wonderful the wonderful Vay. Now, Vay, what do you think about cosplay? I love cosplay. I love hot women. I love the clanky [ __ ] that falls off. I just [ __ ] love cosplay. But, I mean, I’m here to look at hot babes, so give them to me. Hell yeah. and the men too, of course. Hell yeah. Yeah. Thank you guys for being here. Uh I will explain your your role soon uh after I explain the whole show to chat cuz I’m sure there’s a lot of people here that this is their first time uh seeing one of these contests. So there’s a a lot to explain and go over. But first of all, I would like to give a a thank you to Marvel Rivals for being a partner in uh in this competition. And it wouldn’t be possible without them to do the crazy 100k prize pool we’ve literally never done before. Before this, the most that we’ve done is uh 50k and I think that we’ve given a total of a quarter of a million dollars to cosplayers. So after today, I think it’ll be 300 350k. Yes, sir. 300. Yes, sir. 350K through the Amaru cosplay contest. So yeah. So, next year next year is 200k. 200. Uh, well, we we’ll we’ll see about that. 100% increase, right? That’s that’s true. So, you’re right. Well, I guess I guess I’d better start working on that. I’ll start working on that. Well, anyway, the prize pool for this one is uh quote unquote only $100,000 uh with Marvel Rivals help of course. So, they contributed some categories to the contest today. But the grand prize is going to be picked by everyone watching today in chat. Uh first place for that is going to be $10,000 and second place $4,000 and third place $2,000. So a lot of money going on. It’s not like $100,000 goes to one person. That would be crazy and well okay based on this uh can we like can we bring that down? Can I see fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth? Cuz where the hell’s the other like I don’t know eight $1,000 going? glad that you asked because I actually made a slide just for that uh breaking down uh all of the prizing. So, this is a lot, but basically chat favorite. Uh the first place prize is $10,000. Uh and then we also have 12 categories that have been prepicked for things like wigs, uh makeup, uh Twitch emotes, just like 12 different categories. Uh first, second, third for that is 2,500, 750. You can look at all this. There’s going to be 36 people winning in those. And on top of that, this is uh our job. Soda. Oh, I’m I see. I’m so pumped. I didn’t know. I didn’t know I get this. I have power. This This slide is wrong. It’s more than 30k. Oh, wait. No, it’s $33,000 that the five of us will be giving away today. So, wa my own money. Yes. You get $5,000 V to give away to 10 people. So during change someone’s life today, guys. Come on. Make those good choices. We each pick 10 that we all We each get to pick 10. Yeah. Yeah. Like during the show, if you see one you like, you’re like, “Holy [ __ ] I want to give that person $500.” You just call it out and then they’ll get $500. What if it’s like the same person? What if Chance and I both are like, “Damn, that’s an Well, you can discuss if you would like to both give it to that person or if you want to split it. You can discuss.” So, we can we can No, you you can you can you can do whatever you like. It’s It’s all good. Do whatever you like. Um so, yeah. Uh me, uh Baby No Money, Vay, and Soda, we each will be picking 10 people. And then Jessica, uh, she is picking 24 people, but that she has already prepicked some of those cuz that’s a lot to pick. But yeah, so there will be 105 total prizes awarded today. Uh, so I think that about 700 people entered. So basically one in seven people will win something today out of $100,000. Pretty good chance. Jessica, I want you to I I want you to explain to me why you get to dish out uh what was it? $24,000 and I only get 5,000 cuz I know my [ __ ] and I love cosplayers and I don’t say that they’re clankers. Sit down, Soda. Damn. All right, D. You just got Ether. Soda’s the Soda was also mentioning to us that he was going to put you talk about your cosplay achievements. He just attacked me, but it’s fine. It’s whatever. Yeah, I did hear that Soda was going to put something on, but I don’t see I don’t see any kind of outfit going on. I did get a cosplay. I worked really hard. I put it on one thing. Furry, furry, furry, furry. Wait, why do you have another one of those? I thought that you got rid of the I can’t wear it cuz I can’t see anything. So, it’s not happening. Do you have the full suit or is it just the head? Of course. Oh, got the fans inside and everything. The whole shebang. Fans inside. How hot does it actually get? Yeah, you need fans inside. Oh, like it gets it does get that hot. So, yes, you do need fans. That’s how hot it gets inside. Jesus. Extraction trays, etc. Okay. Wow. Wow. Well, anyway, uh, lock in. Hook us up. These are, uh, 12 categories. So, these are ones that were predetermined. We’ll be announcing that at the end of everything. Chat favorite. Uh, you guys will be picking that. Uh, cute, craftsmanship, funny, creative, makeup, wigs, wigs is a new category. Photography, Twitch, stretamerinsspired, and original design. That’s a new category, too. And then, of course, we have three Marvel Rivals categories. Uh, Marvel Rivals cosplay, craftsmanship, and just general Marvel universe cosplay. All right, so now you’re probably wondering, how the [ __ ] is this going to work if there’s 700 things to pick from? Cuz holy [ __ ] it’s a lot to get through. So basically for most of the show, chat will be picking which ones they like the best. We will show you eight cosplays at a time. Uh this part of the competition is a tournament style bracket. Uh us the five judges will be we will be discussing our opinions, but ultimately chat gets to decide. We can only influence so much. And to vote all you guys have to do is type the number of your favorite in chat. And then after uh chat picks their top three out of all of them, then we will announce the other categories. So we will do a practice round first to uh to test this out. I just realized I also need to combine the chats that sodas sodas chat and Alex’s chat can participate. So before we do the practice round, can you give me a breakdown Emmy or whoever’s, you know, been a part of chat voting before, tell me give me a brief description of how you think chat tends to vote. Um, honestly, it’s pretty the like Do you mean like which kinds they pick? Cuz I think I know what you’re thinking. No, no, no. I’m not thinking anything. I’m asking you to talk. Okay. Well, usually they pick the one that appeals to the most. And I know you’re probably thinking that means like the really hot girl ones. And there are ones like that that do win like really attractive women. But there’s also insane armor builds. There’s really funny ones. There’s people that cosplay, you know, just really popular characters that chat likes. So, it it gets pretty diverse. It’s not really super heavily stacked one way or the other. I’m I’m hoping that Jessica and Emmy and whoever else does a lot of I want I’m going to come to y’all and I’m going to say, “Hey, how hard was Okay, that’s wording. I’m going to say, how hard was it to put this cosplay together?” Right? So, you look at something. I’m going to say, “Hey, how difficult was this to make?” Right? Would it make a difference if the cosplayer you were looking at had like a really sexy body but her face was ugly? Like what is it? What is it? Cuz you don’t like the woman once. Why? No, you’re laughing. Tell me what No, I just want you to say it again. Oh, there are difference. Oh, no. If the girl had a girl face is ugly, but her cosplay was super Yeah. super nice. Okay, I’m going to use I’m going to use this as a good segway. I’m going to use this as a good segway. A lot of people, this is their very first time doing a cosplay contest online. So, this is their very first time interacting with the whole cosplay interface. Oh, why would you why would you get tear from the giant? So, so as I have to I listen I have to I have to mama bear I have to mama bear chat you guys. This may be someone’s first interaction with cosplay contest with their first time putting themselves there out online. So, I would just ask just a little bit of, you know, just I just want to make sure that the talent and skill reign supreme over natural looks. Oh, it it does. Trust me. Good. Don’t worry. We’ve done five or six of these. But that’s the thing. But it’s the attractive women that have the really good [ __ ] cosplays. Like Jessica, she mean it’s a valid question. A lot of people think of cosplay as like, oh, it’s like the hot girl competition, but I mean, for this, like, no, trust me, you’ll you’ll see. I I I think I think this is going to be a really good introduction to a lot of people’s like first time if you’ve never seen you’re going to see so many talented, incredible people from all over. You’re going to see different sizes, races, genders. It’s going to be it’s just going to be amazing. And I think it’s really going to open your eyes up to what Cosway really is. It’s It’s okay. Hey, let’s send it. We got 100K to give out. Emmy, do your job. Yes. Okay. Thank you, Soda. Let’s do it. So, practice round. This is mostly for chat so they can see how it works. All right, chat. So, we’re going to start the first poll. Just put your favorite number. Favorite number or favorite color, you know, whatever. [ __ ] It doesn’t doesn’t matter. It’s just a test so you can see how it works. And then, yeah, we have our little overlay on screen, which we have not actually been able to stress test yet. So, I’m hoping that it does not break. Blue. I don’t blue. Purple. Come on. Purple. Purple. Purple. This is a really good uh chance for you to like show how much you influence. So, if you like say a certain color, chat, green is my favorite color. I think you guys are my favorite color. Don’t vote for green. Pink’s my favorite color. Green is green. I like blue. Blue. Blue is crazy. It’s too fast. It’s too fast for me. Yes. That’s crazy. Okay. Well, it didn’t break. So, that that’s good. That was uh one of my big stress points for today. Okay. Well, yeah. Now you guys see how it works. It’s It’s pretty easy. So, how long how long do you typically leave it? Like a minute? Uh it’s only 30 seconds cuz we have a lot. Yeah, it goes pretty fast. Yeah. Yeah, there’s there’s a lot to get. Oh, did you did you want to talk about that, Emmy? How like uh we’re just going to Okay. Um so, sometimes when uh this is very understandable. Sometimes when people enter and we go through their entry, they’re like, “What the heck? You literally spent 3 seconds on my entry.” Uh, we have a lot. So, in order to make the show a reasonable length, we go through pretty quickly. But if you liked someone’s stuff and want to see more, all the posts are on my subreddit. You can go find it there. And most people link their socials. So, yeah. Hell yeah. And with that, we can we can get started. We can get started in one. Be happy. soda. I’m so excited. I’m so excited. We have two new judges. I’m excited. It’s going to be great. I’m I was working on things. No, you’re going to be great. You’re going to be great. Don’t worry. Don’t worry. Don’t worry. You’re going to learn. Don’t regret it. Don’t regret it. Don’t make me regret it. Not him. Jesus. Okay. First, Galadriel by Aina. Ranny the Witch by Takora. Squirrel Girl by uh Adrian Uchis. Original Deadpool design by Belted Earth 3. Very cool. Damn, I like his name. KDA by Liny Art. That’s crazy. Kratos by Jayfish. Oh my god. Oh, and as as you can see, by the way, I forgot to say for people that are new to this, every single entry has a proof photo. They were required to put their costume back on and submit a uh a picture that has like my tag in it so that we know that these are in fact their pictures and they are the one entering. So everyone in this has like a picture that they took just at least one picture they took just for the show. Uh number seven, Doc O by Army. Oh my god. Yeah, this one’s super cool. I’ll let his Inspector Gadget his video play out a bit. Very sick. He’s already one on my screen. Scarlet Spider by uh Breakor. And that’s our first set of eight. So um yeah, I don’t know if this is what you were expecting, soda, but it’s it’s pretty it’s pretty crazy. It’s all high quality stuff. Okay, so like an example of uh like choosing choosing choosing like like your judges pick. So one of my judges pick is actually number seven, the Doc cosplay. And uh the reason why I chose him is because uh a lot of times cosplayers will make these like insane cosplay builds and then when they actually do finally take their photos, they’re just like in their bedroom and so you know it’s genuinely for the love of the game. So this is one of my picks is this Doc O right here. Super cool. Yeah, I just did Doc O like 2 3 weeks ago and the rig was like 45 lbs on my back and I was trying to walk around Anime Expo and it was literally impossible. I had like Iron Mouse on my on iPads in my like tentacles. Oh, that was painful. But it was really cool, but painful. Yeah. Doc, don’t you have to know how Don’t Don’t you have to like know how to do science stuff to make this? Like the lights and the wiring, like the tech. Cosplayers cosplayers are makeup artists. They’re wig stylists. They’re solder. Like they can do lights and LEDs. They can do like their own prosthetics. They can do like just so much whack mechanical [ __ ] It’s It’s crazy what cosplayers will teach themselves to do to become the character. It’s amazing. I love this passion. He spins, bro. Oh my god, it grips. Science. They could become doctors, but this works, too. A lot of these people are doctors. Like, there’s a guy who’s on here. He’s like a neurosurgeon. It’s crazy. Simon Cow head. Yeah, for real. Oh my god. There’s that joke that like if a furry if like a plane going to a furry convention goes down that’s like uh like 30% of the government’s uh like back end going down with it because a lot of people that are in space and everything fries actually have so much money actually. Yeah. Aren’t their builds like 20 grand a pop like almost every time? Crazy. Oh yeah. Nuts. All right. Well, seven. So you will be seeing seven in the semifinals after we get through all of them. I’m going to start the next block. So what happens there? Hold on. Go back. Go back. Okay. What? Okay. Just so you know, we have 70 of these votes to get through. But any anyway, go on. Go on. What were you going to say? Are they just gone? Is that it? Yes. Yes, that’s it. That’s talking about we’re going to have to go really fast. It sucks. But it’s like Yeah, that that’s why people like, “Holy [ __ ] it was so fast.” Because because there’s so many because Okay, so the goal when people enter, our goal is to show all of them if possible. I think we got 99% of them in and there were 700 people that entered. So, it’s it’s a lot. What happened to the other percent? It feels like a majority of the human population is in this contest.

That’s all plastic like heated and melted and twisted and everything. So that’s like a really unique way to do a wig. I’ve never seen a wig done like that before. Like I’ve seen kind of, but I’ve never seen it like twisted and turned into like bubble pop soda. They love chat, why are we not voting too? Chat. Chad, what are we doing? They love Lego. No, no. Obviously, and I’ll be honest, I I have just as much appreciation for the good ideas as I do the effort put into the cosplay. Like number four, I unironically love cuz it’s just a fun idea. Oh, what is number four? Number four is fun. Yeah, I was about to say, what is number four? Or did you pick that for an Audible emote? Well, you haven’t seen the emote. Number four, what’s it called?

Scarlet by uh Dam Mask Cannon. Very cool. Iron Throne. Do they make the Do they make the chair too? I don’t I’m going to say probably not, but it adds to the photo. Gver by Toto Cosplay. Look at the [ __ ] chest plate. He’s smoking that [ __ ] too, eh? Look at that. My boobs do that for you. He’s hotboxing his cosplay. Soul of Cinder by Quantum Core. I’m pretty sure this is the guy that me and me and Emily ran into. Uh where was it? I think uh anime maybe was anime. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. This guy was super nice and he looks super squad.

Wind spike diva by Ariikari. Wow. Yay. Okay. Okay. So, I have two of my honorable mentions in this category. It’s number one, the Brigittita, and then uh number five. So, the reason why I chose the Brigittita is because it’s kind of reminiscent to like old 2016 like World of Warcraft. go to BlizzCon and you see all those like crazy costumes where it’s like Evva foam shoulders, smoke machines on everything like EVA foam uh like shield that glows like that really spoke to me cuz it just it’s reminiscent of like a time when everyone would go balls to the wall. And then the second one, the soul of Cinder, he hand cut and crafted every little single bit out of EVA foam. So, you know those like foam mats that you um stand on for like a garage, like the squishy floor mats? Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yes. That it’s like made of that. And so, he like cut and dremelled and soldered and just is his Instagram is just months and months and months of him doing it. It’s incredible work. It’s so beautiful. So, those are my two badass. I want to get a sideby-side comparison of number seven, number five, and number one. Okay. Um let’s see. Number seven. Number seven. I mean, this is crazy. Do you remember making those? Number five. I’m just We’re pairing this up next to this. And that’s crazy. Number four. Hey, man. All cosplay is valid. All cosplays valid. You know what’s crazy is that Brigittita would probably go up to that little raptor and be like, “Cicklo claws, man.” You know, like that’s the energy we’re giving. Very cool. Okay. Uh The Mdeo by Zchi. Whoa, that’s creepy. He’s in the in the woods for his for his beard. Everyone’s like Sona loves the crazy ones. Uh Lesie, this is an original character by Niels Beardfoot.

Almost every cosplay I’ve seen looks painful. Yeah, a lot of it except for Except for the shark guy or the the raptor guy. Yeah, number two and four look like straight up [ __ ] sick. Yeah, they do. Oh my god, so sick. So cool. Can we uh see number four? Like is that picture? It almost looks like a Google image like like actually like art drawn. But is that a picture of them? Just an edited legit picture taken of their cosplay. Uh it’s a real picture that’s been edited. Yeah, it’s definitely an edit, but it is a real picture still. Yeah, it’s a real picture. Wow.

It’s going to be for the Raphael, which is number one, and then the number six. Uh number one, I chose the Raphael because this took them around 9 months. They taught themselves how to program LEDs. They have a video on TikTok where they’re putting everything on. The amount of straps and buckles and attachments that are hidden in the costume is like insanely impressive. Um, I specifically chose that as an honorable mention because you can’t tell where the cosplayer ends or begins. And it’s I I love that aspect of cosplay is when you like lose the person in the costume. It’s so beautiful. And then number six, they hand sculpted every single mask that’s on their backpack and then they scanned it into a 3D uh thing and then they redid it and then reprinted them. So they like hand sculpted every mask and then it’s just cool. They just taught themselves so many new techniques for this. You’re right. At first glance at six, I didn’t notice all the like equipment on her back. Yes. I didn’t notice it. That’s a lot. Yeah. It’s It’s really tough, right? With like with you say you don’t like videos of cosplayers, but sometimes the best way to see a cosplay in action is a video because then you get to they get to turn around and they go, “Oh, hey, actually this all the way zips up and you can’t even tell that I’m wearing this big monster dragon costume.” It’s cosplay is just so creative. You know what it is? I think I think uh I think a lot of the cosplays I see online are the ones that tend to get the most favorites and they’re usually, you know, I I think that’s a really big discussion to have to be honest because there’s a whole demographic of people that don’t do cosplay like that and they are these creatives and creators.

I think this might be 3D printed. Okay, maybe that goes through plastic. So, we could we could definitely talk about that. 3D printing is its own art form altogether. Baby No Money 2 music video by Ed the Clown King. Oh, you’re in the background in the middle. Yeah, it’s good. I like it. That’s you. Uh, Chucky by the Real Moises B. God, this is creepy.

Okay. Yeah. Yeah. I’m going have to I’m going to have to go three here once again. Sorry, baby. No money. Okay. So, let’s talk about 3D printing. Is this looked down upon in the cosplay world? Only if you’re not crediting your 3D print artists. I think uh a lot of people think 3D prints on Etsy are just kind of like a a crash and like just cash and grab whatever and print it and be like, “Oh, I just printed it.” But there are a lot of people who spend a lot of time creating these models and uh that itself is a skill of its own. A lot of people who uh won overall have 3D sculpted and um taught themselves how to 3D model and then they print their own stuff and they don’t put their stuff online because they know people will steal it. So, uh it’s not bad to 3D print. I think it’s a really wonderful way to make cosplay more accessible, but just remembering to credit where the 3D model came from and giving them that hype because at the end of the day, that’s someone who’s created a service for us to fasttrack uh our cosplays into creation. So, so the talent and skill is the people that actually go into the thing and model it 3D and do all of that. And if you’re going to use it, that’s fine, but credit them. Yes. But also, there is there is something to be said about finishing up a 3D model as well, because if you want it to look good, you’re going to have to glue it together, sand it, paint it correctly, rig it correctly. Yeah. Even if it’s someone else’s like model, you have to paint it yourself. So, it’s not like completely someone else. So, yeah. So, this collaborative That’s sandy. That’s why it’s glistening. I’m not sure uh if this is 3D printed, but let’s talk hypothetically. Yes, this would be like a completely finished a beautifully finished 3D model if that’s the case. But yeah, it’s like a imagine it like a collaborative effort like like your friend goes, “Hey, I made this like in 3D model. You want to print that?” And then you finish it up. There there is something to be said about the way you finish a model as well. So, I just don’t want that to be misconstrued. Very cool. Number four is looking real depressed. It’s so nice having Jess here cuz she she knows so much about literally everything that uh goes into all of this. So, it’s great. I got questions here. She’s got answers.

So, I really say it depends on the weapons. Yeah, that makes sense. I can I see two and seven? I didn’t get to look at them much. Here’s two. Whoa. What’s this from? Uh Kaiju number eight.

Yeah. So they’ve got like a little battery pack, a little switch, a little situation for every individual piece of lighting that you see. So the breast plate probably has two two things on either side, but then like the switch in the middle, the each blade probably has a switch. Uh the shoulders, same thing.

Game of the year, but it may it may not because it had it came out at the beginning of the year. So, people are constantly reminding, hey, hey, hey, remember remember it was good.

I mean, if you are you skipping cut scenes and No, skip the side content and do story. Maybe if you maybe I don’t that seems really a lot of people hate you, but the story is the big standout I will say. Yeah, the animation’s incredible. It’s beautiful. It’s beautiful. Amazing game.

Uh, you can you can uh 3D print the base and then add fur or you can get it commissioned or you can make it yourself with foam and then use like resin for the eyes. You can cast a little resin gem and then put a little picture of an eyeball on the back and then when you flip it over it becomes one of those like glass eyes.

Evva foam. Oh, right. Okay. Right. Got it. Oh, so the boobs are not real. I think so. Yeah, they’re like they’re not fabrics.

It’s really cool. kind of looks like it’s like attached right around her like collar bones area. I’m pretty sure this is her own custom like original to be honest.

I think I think it’s a team. Yeah, I think it’s cuz a team that won the like Overwatch Cup or something. Oh, I see. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. And uh Heyel, which is a Mar and Keagawa cosplay by Corey. That’s great, too. I really like the uh My dressup darling. It’s an anime. My one of my honorable mentions goes to number seven, the Mercy Atlantic Allstars skin because uh for her actual dress, she couldn’t find a fabric that was the right color, so she dyed the fabric and airbrushed and painted it to make it match. Um, this is one of those things where uh dying fabric can often be overlooked in cosplay because it’s like the base fabric. Like you don’t think too much about it. But a lot of times cosplayers will have to dip dye and gradient dye a fabric to get the right style or even uh put some stickers down and airbrush and then peel it off, stencil it, all that kind of stuff. So that’s why she gets one of the honorable mentions because she mentioned the difficulty of having to dye and make everything match. So, congrats number seven. Agreed. Now, about the gloves and number one. Okay. What’s going on here? Let’s see. This looks 3D printed. 3D printed. Okay. Yes. But it’s a beautiful 3D print. She finished this so well. So, so, so well. How long would something like that take to 3D print by itself? Just like the the model. Sorry, one more time. How long would it take to like 3D print something like that? that if she has just like a regular bamboo. Uh, I would say bamboo the [ __ ] Oh, bamboo lab is a type of 3D printer.

Oh, that’s what I’m saying. Ally says that her fiance made the gauntlet for her, but he also entered. Wait, Soda, that could that could be you. You could 3D print for V to wear. Yeah, you could 3D print. Wait, didn’t you have a 3D printer and you didn’t [ __ ] figure out what to use it, so you threw it out? This is when 3D printers first came out and no one knew how to work them. That’s true. 3D printers have like only in the past like two or three years have they just like come become so just plug and play. You can literally use your phone. Yes, it’s so easy. Like insane. And like the 3D modelers too have gotten so like they’re just so in tune with everything. So they’re like, “Oh, buy this model print. You have now a little cat.” You know, like it’s perfect, dude. We can print out so much [ __ ] like Yeah, containers like buckets. They’re easy to use. Pyrex containers. 3D printer. I think they deserves a 3D printer. You can print me out.

Like no, my abs got to be bigger for this [ __ ] costume coming in. Pump some iron. Like again, is it working out for the health or they is it just part of the cosplay? Does that make sense? Everything’s a bit remember that all body types are valid in cosplay. So if you don’t look like the character’s body, it doesn’t mean you can’t cosplay that character. True and based. or but he was asking like for the ripped guy cosplayers do you think to them working out is part of preparing for cosplay is what he was asking they probably they probably like listen to the soundtrack as they do it and stuff and like yeah like what comes first the cosplaying or the working out seem in their head I’ve seen some people uh want to cosplay as Goku and then they go through this crazy like Jim Bro arc and then they cosplay Goku yeah again like they’re they’re clearly good at cosplaying it’s clearly a very passionate hobby for And maybe they’ll, [ __ ] I need to look better.

So maybe it’s not as bad as it looks if she’s able to hold it up like that.

Weapon X by battle damage props plus Wolverine. Okay, look at his hat. That’s crazy. Goes so well with the cosplay. Very cool. Yeah, this is uh Oh my gosh. Sorceress. Another original design by Cinder’s Art. Holy [ __ ] how cool that is. So spiky. Yo, Cindaras is crazy. Exile cosmetic armor. Ridiculous. Yeah, we had to pay money for this [ __ ] Loki inspired cosplay by Seion Lily. This is another one of my armies. And uh Victor by Cobalt Cosplay. Very cool. Nice. Got the arm and everything. They got the little Oh, the arm moves. It moves. It moves. Yeah. Yeah. Cobalt is the one uh with their menmer and they also had the the bird. Yeah, she did the the bird the the uh night night. How How is it on like a How’s that thing moving? I guess she’s just like clicking it perhaps. Yeah, you got a little clicker somewhere. Yeah, little. This is a very tough area. Yeah, number five. Oh god. He’s one of my Oh, number seven is one of my honorable mentions because cosplay is about telling a story and this is like very much like the what is it called? The tav or not the tav was it the it’s the from the series she’s turned into noodles at the bottom. So it’s like she’s her own Loki variant and it’s kind of like a a play on the thought that every time someone cosplays a character you are that variant. So all versions of characters are are like canon because we are all and can be all the character if that makes sense. You know what I mean? That makes sense. Yeah, I think I get it. I have not seen the Loki show. Is that chest plate that she’s wearing made out of warble? Warble probably. Yes. Yeah. Worble warbla. Warblah. It’s the material I’ve learned today. Worble sounds like the worle. You guys do your daily. I don’t really do it. No, I totally don’t do it. Who won? Six, right? I think I think six won. Yeah. Well, chat, that was the last of the general voting. We’ve gone through all of the entries that we were able to put into the contest. I think it was close to 700. So, we’ve done a lot. But now it’s gonna get even worse because now you’re gonna have to pick out of the ones that won first place in their bracket. And because of how many we got, uh, now you have to pick from 10 instead of eight because of how the math worked out. So, um, good luck. But we’re going to make the polls longer. We’ll give you 60 seconds to think and vote this time. All right, guys. Um, made genius. Yeah, my my vote. We’ve got this [ __ ] figured out. Okay, guys. This is a $100,000 cosplay contest at 9:30 p.m. That’s crazy. Yep. It’s insane. The goal was for this to be under four hours. It’s getting close to 5, but we’re we are nearing the end. Okay, chat. Um, so before the poll starts, we’ve got Doc Off the Thing, Larrow. Um, I I don’t know. Oh, you know what? Good luck, guys. Good luck. It’s about you, chat. Y there are three in these that have made it thus far, but this is where the end of the road should happen for them. There are four in particular. No, three. [ __ ] Yeah. Where’s the fourth? Oh, I know. I can kind of see what you’re talking about, but like Yeah. Yeah. Wait, four. I almost want to see them full screen again. Uh we don’t we don’t have them prepared unfortunately, but you’ll see them full screen if oh they get far. So Oh damn. Nobody’s voting for the thing I would have voted for you. Which one will you vote for? I I love the thing. The thing is sick. It’s awesome. They’re all voting for number. I love number four. Okay. I love number eight. I love number five. Number five is our original design. Without saying anything else, let’s go left to right. Emmy, which one do you vote for? Just pick four. Okay, maybe no money. Two. Yeah. Jessica, nine. I think I’d go with the six, but I don’t remember. Babe, congrats. Nine. I think I’d go a eight on the ring one. It’s like 91. Yeah, 9-1. We’ll see nine in the in the final finals. All right, next. Congratulations. Oh my god. You know what? You know what, chat? Just Just Wow. Yeah, this one’s cooked. Just listen to your heart, you know? Just listen to your heart. Why would you put all of these together? Oh my gosh. Because that’s these are the ones that Oh, wow. The decision making is all over the place. They all look like they fit together in like the same universe. Like these two side. Imagine all these guys at the bar together dressed in these cosplays. Like, I don’t know about the same universe. There’s a I mean pair number seven with number 10. You know, beating your ass with switch. I was talking about like bottom row minus 10. Yeah, the bottom row looks pretty similar. Okay, let’s say you swap out. You put hella from Gengar switch creation. True. Or put two down in 10. The storage of everyone’s costumes is what I’m thinking about is insane, man. I I I can’t pick. I feel bad for Tim. All right. Left to right, Emmy. I would vote for number nine. Okay. I think number nine’s going to win. I really like the switch one. I think it’s like I really like primary colors. So, Jess, you’d go one. Oh, he said 10. No, 10. Okay. I’d pick nine as well. Okay. I think I’d go seven. Seven’s really good. I’d go six. Oh, six is sick. A lot of these people also got like honorable mentions, which is like 500 bucks, right? Yeah, true. Yeah. Or some some of them did win other prizes as well. You You’ll see who won. Uh number nine did. Okay, that makes sense. All right, chat. Next one. Brace yourself. Oh, boy. Oh. Oh, god. Oh, the Shrek. I forgot. I love the Shrek one. This one’s insane. Oh my god. Yeah, I think I think it’s pretty like that Michael Scott gift. Yeah, but number six though. Number two was so good. The rest Yeah, number two is nasty. Number two is too good. Holy [ __ ] 50% number two. That’s crazy. I don’t know if I I feel like it’s going to win the competition. Crazy. And number two is super good. I mean, it’s it’s it’s going to be a final contender for sure. Mhm. But just wait until we see like remember those there’s a lot of custommade like [ __ ] you’re right and like the ones that like fly out too. It’s it’s filthy out there. Um it really is. It’s rough. Rough and tumble. Look how cute. Well, who’s the sec who’s the who’s the second here? Oh, eight. Okay. I think eight and then six. Okay. And 10. Number four is gone. Babe, you got to kiss it goodbye. Unfortunate. I love her. Shrek is gone, too. It’s not happening. Wow. I love the Shrek one. The Shrek one was hilarious. Wow. Don’t make them go. Amazing. Why can’t Why can’t they all win? It’s I wish that they could. But remember, 100 plus people are are winning prizes today. So, you know, uh Okay, good luck, chat. Another hard one. Uh I see one I like. That’s a 10 for sure. Yeah, just for safety. I had one more honorable mention, so I’m going to throw it at number three. Oh, congrats to number three. Okay. Yes. All right. Left to right. Emmy, pick one. Number 10. Yeah. 10. 100%. It’s crazy. 10. Jessica. Uh, I really like 10. I would also be a 10 man. Wow. I would too be a 10 man. Okay. Oh my gosh. Yeah. I mean, 10 is just [ __ ] crazy. Three is in. I mean, any any single one making it this far is crazy. Yeah. It looks like a [ __ ] 3D printed mini figurine that they don’t also seven. 10 also 10 also moves. So, it’s like they their jaw moves. So, they like it’s fully like embracing puppetry as well with this. Number nine. Uh, no. Number 10. Like her mouse moves. I wish they added a video. Is there a video? Number 10. On your Tik Tok. Yeah. All right, chat. We didn’t They didn’t submit a gift to the contest to see it. Some people didn’t know that they could. So, they I went on a deep dive, though, and it’s like it’s so beautiful. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Chat, you can see all the entries on my subreddit. That’s where these were all posted to in the first place. So, you can go look through all of them. But there are a lot. There’s seven or 800 posts. Uh, all right, chat. So good. Next one. Oh, man. I feel like it’s I feel like it it’ll be four. Yep. Guys, look at number eight and number nine. I’m banning fourth. There’s I’m banning four, dude. Emmy submitted herself to [ __ ] pay herself out. What? Four is trolling. It’s got to be one. It’s got to be number 10. 2 3 5 6 7 8 9 or 10. I think one I mean eight or nine 10 one Yeah. What about eight? Eight is insane. I think one and eight or eight. I saw it in real life and that it’s it’s actually insane. Like it’s massive. There’s something that makes me like disconnect from it a little bit because it is so unhumanoid. Does that make sense? Like it’s so Goliath that I like disconnect from it in a way which sucks cuz it’s still the same thing. Yeah. You’d have to see I feel like I would have liked it in like a more like staged picture I guess how everyone else has theirs whereas theirs is from like a con. I feel like that maybe takes away from it. We got a winner. Lilith. Lilith. Who won? Nice. Amazing. Cool. Four got robbed. Next one. Four got rough. Oh boy. Um, wow. This one’s rough. Holy [ __ ] This might be the most the most stacked one. Yeah, this is ridiculous. Oh, one. Oh my god. Number eight. And number seven game. Oh my gosh. There are so many different techniques. Like you got the latex, you got the foam work, got the resin, you got puppetry, you got oh my god, scale mail, sewing, 3D printing, LEDs, everything, everything. Everything. Everything. Even like the Sailor Moon is like incredible out of this one. Mhm. Yes. I’m pretty sure I’ve met her in real life, too, and she was really sweet. Yeah, this is absurd. Is left to right. I would vote for eight. Um, seven. Did you seven? Jessica, eight. Uh, seven. Seven. I would go seven, too. Seven won the poll. Wow. Yeah, seven’s ridiculous. Yeah, that one’s super cool. All right. I mean, I feel like eight seems so hard. Oh gosh. I know which one I go for. Yeah. I’m not gonna say it yet though because it’s too early in the poll. I don’t want to influence people. Yeah. Let Let them Let them I know. You know what? I know. We all know. I know. You know what? I know. Holy [ __ ] I think we all know. And they all know that. We know that. We know. Yep. Yeah. Yeah. I know, guys. Yeah. It’s not even food. Wow. food. Feed yourself the ramen. Yeah. Go grab your food. We’ll We’ll wait. Well, it’s going to It’s No, it’s going to take a hot minute cuz I got to get a bowl and I got to mix it. I got to bring it up to her. It’s It’s a It’s No, it’s fine. We’ll wait. No, I just I’ll just wait. Yeah. Okay. Okay. Damn. I did not know that Borderlands was like that beautiful as a cosplay. You know what I mean? Like cuz cuz it has like a that you know the the cartoonyes tone. Mhm. And they really like people really bring it to life and it’s really cool looking. I have to bring it back. Some would say that the Borderlands art style is actually minimalistic, but to see it brought into real life. It’s different. Yeah. Oh, and I have to I wish so badly that they had done the full cell shading for the Borderlands movie. That would have been a lot of work. I want to bring bring back movie. I’m not going to watch it. I want to bring back up. I want to bring back up cuz some people uh probably weren’t here. Are you muted? No. I want to bring back up cuz some people probably weren’t here earlier. Number four is actually a girl cuz I saw some people saying yes. Number four is a girl. Oh yeah, she’s she’s wearing like a painted shirt. I forgot about that. I just I just really wanted to say that and number four did win the the poll by a long by a landslide. Mhm. Okay, this is the last semifinals and then we’re in the finals. Three looks so funny in this sequence. Hell yeah. Bender looks angry that he’s having to compete. Dude, every single one of these. What the [ __ ] Oh, wait. Cinderas is against herself. She’s for Ant. That’s right. Fight yourself. I was going to say the two custom mates that were sick. Mhm. God, you got the fiddlesticks. Oh, the crazy Matt is. Yeah, it’s GG’s. Someone upset about what happens. So cool. Wow. I don’t know what I’d vote for. Mandalorian. I really want to make something now. Yeah, I think I know. It’s close. Kind of. Not really. All right. Emmy. Uh, I would vote for one. Okay. Uh, I think Fiddlesticks. It’s just awesome. Jessica, you got to pick one. Oh, maker. I love the energy of one because of where the location was and that video cuz that’s one of my favorite parts of cosplay is like going to a location and being in the cosplay in the correct location. It blows your mind. You’re just like I am that thing. It’s like the best feeling in the world. Okay, Biggy, what would you vote for? Maybe the I don’t know. I don’t know. Can I split my vote into two? No, you cannot. No, we have to pick one. I’m splitting my vote into two. It’s going to be a nine out of 10 for me. I can’t pick. No, I vote I voted four next. The super Oh, well, that’s the last of the semis. Uh, y’all can actually go go get your food if you need cuz production needs a second to set up the finals poll cuz we’re going to do a long one. But, uh, we’ve we’ve now gotten down to the top eight, chat, out of, uh, I 700ish entries. So, there’s eight left. Um, I’ll be right back. Yep. Go ahead. Uh, so chat, as a reminder, uh, so for this section of the contest, the total prize pool is 100K, but first place for chat favorites, so your guys’ pick gets $10,000. And second place gets $4,000. Third place gets $2,000. I’m going to pull up the full prize breakdown in case you guys were curious. So, this is how all of the money is distributed and we’re awarding a total of 105 prizes. I guess it’s not really 105 winners cuz some people got more than one, but um yeah, 105 prizes. So, chat favorite first place is the most amount of money you can get from a single prize. So, the eight we’re going to pick from, it’s uh yeah, it’s it’s kind of a big deal. And uh I think that we’ve also given out all our honorable mentions. So the five judges us, we’ve given out $33,000 over the course of the last almost five hours. And then on top of that, we’ll have $51,000 to give away in the forum of um judge prizing. So categories like cute, funny, makeup, wigs, stuff like that. Uh those have been selected some by other cosplayers or professionals in the industry. So, we will go through that after um we finish the grand prize winner stuff. And these are all the categories you can see here. There’s three Marvel rivals categories because they were a big partner in making this contest possible. But besides that, we’ve got chat favorite, cutest craftsmanship, funniest, creative, makeup, wigs, photography. We have a Twitch and streamer inspired section and uh original design. So yeah, we’re gonna get into that as soon as production is ready and as soon as Soda and Vay are back. So chat, who do you think is going to go home with the W? I’m so I’m so curious. Uh I guess I can actually pull up the slide now so they can start looking and thinking, but uh Viz, don’t start the poll yet. We’re going to wait till Soda and Vay are back until uh everything’s ready. Okay, so this will be a minute and a half timer, but we’re not starting yet. Just like look at all of them. And oh my god, they look so good. What the [ __ ] We’re together. Yeah. So, out of this, we’ll pick the top three. We’ll go first to third based on percentage of votes. So, there will be one poll between the eight. And uh yeah, just just look at it yet. We’re not going to vote yet, but these are insane. Yeah, I don’t want to vote. All stars, bro. This is crazy. Yeah, this is definitely the most stacked we’ve done yet. Oh, man. From from like the past uh contests that you’ve done. You think that this is the best final? Yes. But honestly, like they’re all very close quality. Yeah. I mean, once it gets to a certain point, like this is all like movie quality. Like it doesn’t get any better than this. Yeah, what would get better than this? Jess, do you have any idea how to like elevate past this or is it not possible? Honestly, it’s like I’m like cosplayers are constantly innovating. They’re constantly figuring out new techniques. They’re constantly like pushing the boundaries of like prosthetics and 3D modeling and printing and like they’ve uh there’s uh just recently they started printing a squishy foam material. And so there’s this um girl, she just printed a full set of armor, squishy foam material. She printed a full chest piece out of this squishy foam material. And it’s like it’s she can go like this and scrunch it all the way down. It like comes back into a perfect shape again. Like it it retains its shape. So like it you’re it’s just going to keep going. It’s just going to keep scaling. Cosplayers are some of the most creative and innovative people I’ve ever [ __ ] seen in my entire life. Love this community. I’m much more of a fan of this season of cosplaying because of the innovations that we’ve seen over the years as well. There you go. Or chat, do you guys want me to try to find the original slides for all these so we can look at them again? I just I might need help with some of the character names. Let me see if I can find some of them so we can look at them again. Okay, so here’s Iron Inquisitor Kale by Shiu Cosplay. This is uh number one uh on the poll. So if you like this one, you would type one. That’s crazy. And then uh can someone help me out? What is the character on number two? Diablo. Uh but what’s what are they called? That is from name is I don’t know. It is uh Awoken Cderon Armor from Diablo I. Okay, perfect. All right, so this is uh number two on the poll. I never got that far. D4. So amazing. This is insane. Now this one’s crazy. D4 bad. And then number three, uh, Mother Miranda, I believe. Mother Miranda. That’s so good. And this one is insane. So this is number three on chat. It is a fully embroidered tabard. Amazing. Beautiful. God, stunning. And then a grandmother Willow from Pocahontas. This one doesn’t even look real in a in a good way. It’s It’s crazy. That’s crazy. I need to see a video of this one. Yeah, I would love to see this in real life. It’s so cool. Yeah, when I first saw this one on the subre, I had to do a double take cuz I thought that this was not a real costume. It’s crazy. All right, then the Lilith. Uh, I found the video. Oh, so much Diablo in the vinyl. Crazy. She found it. Oh, wait. There is a video. Oh. Oh, here we go. Okay. How she makes it doesn’t really go into how she made it. Look at this material. A lot of movement. Oh my god. That’s insane. that this standing at the end of your bed and you wake up, you’re like, “Yeah, yeah, yeah. [ __ ] wave.” Hello. All right. And then, wow, this Lilith is number five. Number five. So crazy. Beautiful. Very, very beautiful. This is the one that’s 3 m wide. I remembered that fact. And then mind flare. Let me see. Mind flare by Comfy Cause from Balders’s Gate. So cool. Very very cool. Oh my god, there’s a human under there. Yeah, she she’s wearing the squid head. I I was scared. It’s so detailed. It’s unbelievable. It’s like the shininess makes it seem like it’s greasy and oily. Mhm. It It looks like reptilian or fishlike. That’s super cool. All right. And then uh can someone help me the name of this Borderlands character? The Borderlands character’s name is Borderlands guy. Is a handsome Jack. I think this is one of the only Borderlands uh Zayn. Zane. Okay, Zane. Thank you. I blinks cause cave. And this this is a a girl chat. It’s very very impressive. She’s very talented. Ridiculous. Ridiculous. And then uh last but not least, we have an original design by Cinder’s art. Uh her Oracle. She came up with this herself. So sick. Very, very cool. All right, so I just want to give everyone a chance to review all of these before we start the poll. Uh we will give you all 90 seconds to think cuz I know this is the hardest one. This is for the grand prize. So first first out of this will get $10,000. Second will get 4,000 and third will get 2,000 I believe. All right. Good job everybody. All right. Good luck guys. All right. You can start the poll. Is everyone in the top eight guaranteed to win money? I think most of them have won things. I won’t say too much yet, but yeah. Oh my god. That’s what’s really great about these contests is like no matter what just it’s just like money, money, money, money. And she’s she’s like single-handedly pumping the cosplay community with more funds. She said I’m like cosplay Oprah chat earlier when we were in the call before the stream started. You get $500. You get $500. Oh, Zane is winning right now. I’m going to give a cosplayer a car. Sevens. Wow. I’ll be honest, it’s close. We’re closer than I Zayn is currently winning. Wow. Damn. This is awesome. I love it because a lot of them you can’t see too much of like the person’s face. It’s very much about the craftsmanship. Like it’s I love that. I see. See, this is what we’re talking about. We’re talking about like at the end of the day, the ones that you thought like you would think would be chosen, it’s these ones that get chosen. It’s like the people who put their whole [ __ ] souls into their costumes that win and that makes me so happy. Super super. I could totally see myself submitting to like this contest some cosplay and I would actually like let’s say I’m number five. I would literally be spamming five in the chat thinking like I’m going to win this [ __ ] They don’t know about this tip. There it is. W chat. That’s our top three. Number seven, the the Zane is first place. And then third place, Mother Miranda. And fourth place, Grandmother Willow. Wow. Crazy. That’s awesome. So amazing. Are they in chat by chance or anything? Um, I’m not I’m not sure. They they might be, but uh these are all people that I I didn’t I don’t know if they’ve entered in the past, so I was not super familiar with their names. Wow. Mhm. Well, well, chat, our top three for the ones that uh chat picked out. So, in third place for chat favorite is Otter’s Cosplay winning $2,000 for their Grandmother Willow costume. Very amazing. And in second place is Lightning Cosplay, which uh is the person Vay linked earlier for the hoof shoes. If you remember, $4,000. I love her. Super super cool. And of course in first place is Blink’s Coscave. $10,000 for their Borderlands Zane Cosplay. Super super cool. But chat, uh that is that is not all. We still have uh over $80,000 to uh distribute. So we’re going to be going through now the [ __ ] uh our other categories. These ones are pre-chosen. Uh some by me, some by uh other cosplayers or professionals. Uh, so again, this is the prizing breakdown. If you’re a stats person, this is the math and how everything was distributed. So, we’re going to be giving out $51,000 now in the next uh the next section. Cuz we we pre-w it has to be done this way. Okay. So, craftsmanship is always uh judged by Jessica because she is the expert in the veterans. So, I will let her go through and explain her reasoning for each of these prizes. So, first and third place, yay, we got uh third place, the Diablo armor. Uh when you look at this, it looks like metal, but it is not. It is individually handcrafted out of foam clay and then covered in latex and create like transferred in. Yeah, foam clay. Okay, that’s adding different [ __ ] to here, but I’m trying to keep up with all the foam we’ve got. Go on. So, she sculpted the uh sculpted with clay the skeletons, the bones, and the ornaments, and then casted replicas with latex to make it lightweight. So everything is handmade which is just baffling. There’s uh the armor aspect, the weapon aspect, there’s the sewing aspect. Just a unreal prop. This looks like it’s like like this is going to come charging at you in like some fantasy movie. This is next level stuff. This does not look mediocre at all. This is beautiful. Second amazing place. Someone said this cosplay is cake. What does that mean? Cake? I’m not sure. Yeah, cake. Is it cake? I think cake. Cake’s probably good. Yeah, it’s probably made out of cake. Cake is good. Okay. Uh, so Mother Miranda, this is Lightning Cosplay. Lightning Cosplay has been working on this costume for 2 years. Just example of the movie quality and uh attention to detail. A small example, there’s a tiny little collar piece right here on her neck. She took a picture of an in-game render, put it into um what’s it called? Uh, it’s like Adobe Illustrator. She traced over top of the in-game model and then in with Adobe Illustrator and then took that and then put it onto an embroidery machine and made a perfect replica of that little collar piece. Imagine that times a million. The entire tavern is embroidered. Every little piece she hand sculpted the like not hand sculpted but in uh 3D what’s it called? ZBrush. Maybe I’m wrong. uh the the Mac and then 3D ZBrush. Uh so it’s like a a 3D program. I can’t remember if it’s ZBrush or the other one, but so we got 3D Bamboo and 3D ZBrush, give or take. Uh then every single uh feather, she took a screenshot of the wings, went into Adobe Illustrator, traced out every individual wing, took it over to a laser cutter, and then cut them all out. So, the freaking feather shapes are exactly as the in-game rendered models. Like, like insane work. Insane work. And she said this was just a a fun project, a fun project of love. Like just just decided to make this. Yeah. Yeah. Cuz cuz usually she does work for like a lot of companies and stuff and this was like her like this for me this is like her magnum opus. I’m like god damn girl. She’s like, it’s just a fun thing to do. Uh, and then third, we had first, oh, sorry, first, my bad. The general. Okay, so this costume is is just beautiful. This is made out of EVA foam. This took him 8 to nine months of full work. Uh, the armor is mostly EVA foam with some bits and pieces that are self-modeled and 3D printed. The cape is entirely hand embroidered. So he did uh which which took him about 400 hours for just the cape. You don’t even see the cape details in this photo, but he did all these different types. Oh yeah, like please look at this guy’s work. He’s insane. He did all these different loop stitches incredible stuff. Uh, other notable parts include the extremely lightweight foam weapons, handmade and fictional chain mail, a spiky wig, leathered weathered armor, leather armor, and a muscle suit, horns, etc. Just he went absolutely balls to the wall. To get this all in EVA foam is just ridiculous work. And if you’re a cosplayer watching this and you know that if you now know that this is EVA, you’re going, “What the fuck?” So, yeah, incredible work. Just gorgeous. Super mobile cape up close. Embroidery. Yeah, if you guys check out the Reddit, he has like a full build book on this thing. It’s just gorgeous. I love it so much. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful work. Amazing. Thank you, Jess. All right, next category is uh is cutest. In third place, we have Neelku Cosplay with her zombie Meiku. Uh this one’s just super super creative and cute. Nice to look at. Nelku does a lot of really interesting designs and uh she always covers her face so she finds different ways to do the mask and yeah, very cute. Very well done. And in second place we have uh Illy Alli as her uh Princess Bubblegum. The wig’s very well done. It’s just really really cute. Very nice makeup. Just very very good job. And then in first place is another Lightning cosplay one. Now, I know people don’t usually like the pet cosplays, but this is uh you know, nothing on this was purchased. She made this for her cat. You’ll notice they even have a bracelet that she made. And um this is the Mother Miranda cosplayer, by the way, guys. So, she does fun stuff like this, too, for her pets. Very, very cute. Yeah, this one’s very high effort. Usually, our pet ones, they are kind of what Soda said about one of the other ones that it’s just like, you know, like an Amazon pet costume. It’s just silly and cute. But this one very cute, high effort. Then she she even matched with her cat. Cute and effort. Mhm. Fantastic. Congrats, Lightning. So she Lightning’s won a lot. She also got sec or second place here. So she she’s going with a lot today. Bought a house, too. Great. So she’s going to be like good. Congrats on your house, Lightning. All right. Now for funniest. This was a difficult one to judge. In third place, we have we we bought TV with uh their Hideio Kojima and uh Snake Cosplay. This one’s just very fun. The makeup was well done for the Hideio Kojima.

And in first place, we have Ari Rockman with their uh It Takes Two cuz you know all the different creative techniques used, even like the wood makeup on the face and stuff like that. It’s just very very well done. It’s also cute. Mhm. It’s super nice relation happy relationship there right there. Very very cute. Very very cute. All right. Our next category to award is makeup. In third place, we have Cipherina with her Jinx cosplay because it literally looks like she was pulled out of the game. This is insanely well done. Third. Yeah, this is Well, that’s crazy. It’s super super good. I know. We’ll keep going. And in second place, we have O Katie Marie with her Myel cosplay. I don’t know if she’s still here, but I saw her here earlier. It came together very, very well. Very amazing. So good. super super good. And then in first place, we have Blink’s Cause Cave with their with their Zane. So, they won a first place prize in a judge category and first place with chat. Amazing. So, that’s uh $12,500 for Blink’s costume. Spread the wealth a little bit. Oh my god. Super super good. Cuz yeah, the shirt is painted, but you can see even on her face, like the eyebrows, the beard are all like little pieces glued to her face and then all the different makeup techniques. It’s just very, very cool. All right, now I have to pull up my notes for this because we had a special guest actually uh judge the section, our good friend Celaby Cause. She wasn’t able to film a video for it because she’s busy preparing for a 24-hour stream. She might actually be live right now, but I will read the notes that she sent to me for why she picked uh each of these winners. So, for third place, Celabby picked Henrik Vigil with his Goku wig. She said, “I think Dragon Ball wigs are extremely complicated to make, and this one was one of the best ones I’ve seen from someone. I’m not sure exactly how this one was made, but I’m guessing using a lot of wire, batting, glue, and a lot of hair ws. It looks very accurate to the character, and overall, the amount of effort this took makes their ranking higher for me. Congrats on third. So, this is Is this like a wig pro we’re listening listening to? Um, she makes a lot of wigs. She’s a cosplayer on TikTok and she does a lot of her own stuff. She’s a wigby. Yeah. Y’all y’all met her. Remember we played Secretary with her. Oh, yeah. Yeah. She’s my friend there. Yeah. Yeah. Y’all met Selby. Uh, in second place, Veranga cosplay. $1,000 for her roomy wig. She said, “This is a helmet wig, which takes some effort to get right, and I was actually really impressed with how it fit on her side profile. It looks like the hair is literally growing out of her head. The braid is also super crisp and looks like they airbrushed this wig with some kind of paint that makes it look even more contrasted and detailed and in my opinion brought the wig up higher in the rankings. Again, another wig that took a lot of effort and structure and also looks super super clean. And for first place, she picked Yep. She said, “I thought overall this wig would take a lot of playing and effort to make the shape just right, and it came out extremely polished and professional looking as well. There aren’t visible crimp marks, and the hair looks nicely textured, and there isn’t a single stray hair showing. It literally looks like a Roblox Avatar helmet, and also looks like it fits perfectly as a helmet wig. It’s comfortable to wear. I was also impressed with how they layered the WS of the hair going up into the spiral tip to look like they are flowing naturally. It was overall very well made. So thank thank you Selby for judging that section and I I agree with her. Thanks Sab. She might even be live right now. Hell yeah. All right. Photography. So this section is judged by a professional cosplay photographer named Martin Wong who is good friends with Jessica. And he actually recorded a little video showing which ones he picked and why. So we will just watch that now. Oh yeah. All right. Um, if I can get it to play. Oh, why won’t Oh no, I think the videos are fogged on. There we go. That works. Hello everyone. My name is Martin and I go by Marwan photo. I have been shooting cosplay for over 15 years. So today I’m very excited and very honored to be judging the cosplay photography portion of this cosplay contest. So without further ado, let’s show off what I think are some of the best photos from today’s cosplay contest. In third place, I have Kamisato uh by Kasinari. Uh these photos are pretty. I love how they incorporating the environment with the cosplay. For a lots of beginning photographer, they usually have the trouble balancing between how to get the cosplay, how to get the environment, and how to make it look harmonizing. uh with the color that’s being placed uh in these photos and also how they edit and how they cropped it. Uh they did a really good job making sure the person stand out in the photos, but at the same time they feel like they’re part of the environment that is naturally there. And I really like how they also expand the background a little bit more to making sure that our focus is not just the person but also the whole environment. But your first points, you know, of uh first thing that grab your eyes are still the person. So with all those things in mind, I think these pictures deserve third place. Now for second place, uh we have Alloy by Bosara and shot by Morgan’s clicks camera. And this one is really exciting. The reason is because you can tell from the photo that they have spent a lot of time thinking how to do post-processing, how to do compositing for these photos because you can tell by the lighting that they use on the person when they’re shooting it. and match perfectly with the background. So even though we know the monster are not real but the only thing that’s stopping us from believing this photo is real is only our imaginations. So uh with all those you know technical skills that has to involve to create this kind of photos. I think this picture deserves second place. And lastly we have Mother Miranda by Landing Cosplay shot by Brad Shot. Now, this is super cool to see because what I’m seeing here is that hiat symmetrical pictures that usually is really hard to involve when it comes to uh architecture and also environment and also a bunch of elements. From this photos, I see that they have used smoke that’s both uh addit with post-processing but also during the shot. I can see a lot of leading line but also breaking of those leading lines which I talk a lot uh in my YouTube tutorials about how to craft a you know interesting shot. So they have including a lot of those elements but lastly the lighting is very well done in this shot. Uh I can see some back lit from natural light but they also have to light the person in the front to making sure they stand out and also very look dramatic. So the lighting for the person and using the natural lights all combined into one make it dramatic but at the same times not strange. Uh so it’s very immersive make you feel like that this is a real character you will see in real life and it’s a stunning moment that you will experience if you see that for the first time and for that I think this picture deserve the first place. Anyway that’s my take. Thank you so much. Back to you Emu. Oh that’s me. Thank you Martin. We appreciate you. We appreciate it. I love the back to you. That was That was good. Thank you, Martin. So, he picked a casinary uh for third place, $750. So, now you can see the photos better, Chad, cuz he had them on the iPad. And second place, Box Staro with their alloy. Uh yeah, very very cool shot and very, very good editing. I did make a joke about this picture and I said she literally went to hell to get this picture and it’s cuz it looks so realistic. So, just saying I also have an eye for photography. Soda’s also a professional photographer in another life. And then first place lightning cosplay. Another prize for lightning cosplay. A first place prize. $2,500 for her mother Miranda photo. This is such a crazy cosplay. Yeah, this one. I would love to see this in real life. Super super amazing. Okay, next category is the Twitch category. Uh I like to add in this category because obviously we host the show on Twitch. Uh, I’m a streamer first and I like to encourage the community to participate and make stuff that’s, you know, fun for us. Even though a lot of you guys watching aren’t particularly into cosplay, I’m glad that you guys are here. So, I try to encourage people to make ones that you guys will will like. So, in third place is Iron Mouse by Freya Bells. This one was super super cute and very well done, very clean. And in second place is 07 by Henry Gson. Really, really, really good. And then, oh, I see chat doing a Lero. Lero. Um, so it was hard to pick between Geos, but I I picked her her Gorp for first place. So, the same this is the same person who did Laro Lero. So, she is winning $2,500. Super super good. But remember, uh, she also got an honorable mention for her Lero. So, she is winning money for both. So, she’s total getting $3,000. Wasn’t there two people that gave her honorable mention? Maybe did she get a thousand? We can check after because uh the honorable mentions will be marked down as well. But um I think I said this earlier, Gio has entered every single contest I’ve done and she always makes something for the Twitch category and she wins I think first or second every single time. Holy sh she’s a a Twitch viewer and also really talented. So cool. All right, then. original design. This is a new category. So, in third place, we have Izzy Bizzy B. $750 for this design. Uh, really, really, really cool. And in second place, Cindaries. $1,000 for I don’t remember this was the oracle or the sorceress one or necromancer. Uh, yeah, I think it was sorceress. Necromancer. Sorceress. Yes. Super super cool. Very cool. Cinderas is very talented. $1,000 for her. And then in first place, Niels Beardfoot with this uh horror warrior original character, original design. Super super cool. I think Niels also did something with uh Leather before as well. Am I wrong? Yeah, the name is super familiar. I can’t remember what he entered with previously, but I’m pretty sure this is not his first time. That’s not super super cool. That’s a lesson, right? From the he is coming game. Yes. I know it’s a leish. It’s a leish. Oh, I still have one mention. Yes. Yippee. All right. So, now we’re to the Marvel Rivals categories. Uh, thank you again, Marvel, for making this possible. I would not be able to do $100,000 without them. Uh, I genuinely mean this. They’re one of the greatest partners I’ve ever worked with. I’ve loved every sponsor I’ve ever done with them.

That’s another thing you got to write down. Soda. What’s filament? Filament is filament is 3D print raw uh plastic. 3D print raw plastic. But what what makes is it all of all of it 3D printed plastic? like white raw plastic. It’s not cooked.
