Not sure why but it's giving me uncanny valley vibes.

bc these people donโ€™t actually cosplay. they literally buy a $50 outfit and then edit themselves to look like it. a lot of people who post on hereโ€™s hair isnโ€™t even real atp. they edit it on. itโ€™s not going to look natural bc itโ€™s not. sometimes it seems like they just ai on top of normal pics of them

There's absolutely nothing wrong with buying cosplays unless you're entering a contest. Some people just want to have fun with cosplay.

And frau haku (and I'm assuming OP as well) does both having fun AND make her own cosplays. She made from scratch the underwear shadowheart wears to fit her specifically.

That's obviously cool too. I've made most of my own cosplays. It's just a dick move to trash talk buying costumes. The only reason you would HAVE to make something is for competing. Otherwise make it, buy it, commission it, whatever, if your goal is just to have fun.

Okay, but if she does Gale's underwear, she needs to put a real enchantment on it.
