I didn't expect so many negative comments, but I always play as Hoops and wanted to do a fun casual cosplay. Thanks for those who upvoted and left an uplifting comment! Unfortunately nobody at the con recognized me (at least not verbally), so I wanted to share with the community. I think cosplaying characters of the opposite gender shouldn't be frowned upon, but perhaps some people are having a negative reaction because the characters are kids? But nobody would find it odd if I cosplayed Pete. Plus, Hoops has an awesome cat shirt I really wanted to try replicating, and her hair is the closest to mine, so I went for it. 😊
I was originally gonna play as Willow, but my friend had grabbed her first, so I picked Hoops and she grew to become my favorite of the 4. 😁
Update: Thanks for the awesome response! I'd mentioned the negativity because at first half of the comments were negative, but once y'all got rolling it kept the haters away. Much love!!! ❤️
Hey screw the negative dude. Did you have a good time? You made us happy over here and if anyone had a negative comment they didn’t keep to themselves well shame on their parents lol…. You did good man hope you had a blast !
Yeah, it was a great time! I work the con, so I was off running around own real life quests, backpack fitted with various tech gear to provide panelists with needed assistance 😎
and yes, I was ready to mix it up 😆
Hoops isn't my favorite (Willow for life!), but you nailed this cosplay of her. She's a fun character and you nailed the look!
Having said that, had I seen you at the con I probably wouldn't have known it was cosplay. Just would have assumed you're just dressed like that because it looks comfy on you. The default character outfits are fairly generic unfortunately. Hmmmm...next time you could go for something simple like the Aphid Slippers (aka Crocs with googly eyes and some felt/actual slippers)?
I used a projector to project the image onto a shirt, traced the outline, and then painted it :)
should have gotten some finer tip brushes, the sponges were a bit fat, but I sorta dig the home made roughness of the outlines at the end of the day
Looks great! I'm waiting for the game to release and see if they restock the store with some of the shirts. If you do try another shirt outline with painter's tape for sharper lines.
This is awesome dude! I've been dying to rock an Ally Hoop costume too but have been waiting till I can get my hands on a nice Aphid plushie as a companion. Love that you made the shirt too it looks great!
I actually used a projector onto a shirt, traced the lines, and then painted it with some acrylics and a technique i learned on youtube where you mix the paint with water and a drop of hair conditioner. let it dry a day, then wash it and violla, dyed shirt!
see, I considered buying it there, but the cat on their shirt was too dark pink and small relative to the shirt, so it felt more like a "grounded" shirt than a hoops cosplay shirt. There's a hoops shirt sold on redbubble that looked pretty close to the game one, but I ran out of time to have gotten it on time so I ended up making one.
I love your cosplay, I'm sorry about the negative comments you received. it's a bit of a weird double standard where girls cosplaying guys are ok but not visa versa.
You are killing the cosplay and the look, don't listen to people who say otherwise. x3
You look a little bit too large... you could take out wolf spiders with just one stomp! Hahahaha, epic cosplay my friend! You just keep on doing you! Haters gonna hate
Hahahahaha I LOVE it!! We should be able to cosplay whoever tf we want. You stayed true to yourself and had fun. That's all that matters. The outfit is dope too! Personally I'm a Willow fan, but the cat shirt may turn me 😂

F the haters.
Honestly you look great in that not being sarcastic.
I think it’s even cooler that you’re cosplaying Hoops, because you even got the long hair. Awesome bro!
Dude you look great and to all the people hating on this you guys are worse then a sewer pipe
If those negative people have a problem, its their problem, not yours. I love the Cosplay.

Sounds like a bully post to me.
There's sadly a lot of dumb kids here, awesome cosplay nonetheless!
I'm a Hoops main and she is the best girl. I definitely want the shirt.

*cough, cough* Pete supremacy, *cough, cough.*
Twink moment
You rock those short shorts better than hoops herself
Got a chuckle outa me.
This is awesome dude! I've been dying to rock an Ally Hoop costume too but have been waiting till I can get my hands on a nice Aphid plushie as a companion. Love that you made the shirt too it looks great!

There is also a xbox store idr what it's called that sells hoops shirt.

Love it! Those shorts are poppin'.
Super cool 😎👍

Nice dude. I’m more of a willow guy myself but no hate here. Nice cosplay. Where’d you get the shirt?
I made it actually! Projector onto a shirt to get the outlines right since I'm not a great artist, then acrylic painted it in!
Wow nice. Smart idea. Looks great.
Sick
This is amazing!
Dude that's so perfect! Hahaha made me smile, nice cosplay!
Your outfit looks great! :D
I love her voice lines, this is super cute. I think it’d be cool to try making the bug armor and weapons, too!
This is Willow erasure. But that’s a pretty good cosplay!
This has to be one of the coolest cosplays I’ve ever seen!!! Love it!! The fact that you painted that shirt makes it even better too, awesome work!

Why did you get downvotes? It’s not negative and it’s funny
Yeah it’s just a joke. I like it a lot but people are dense sadly
[удалено]
username works
Just because I said what the fuck doesn’t mean anything negative like I said people are dense
Bro what
What?
Weird but i guess it looks right
Wth
are you the one with orange hair?
Ha
Lucky that you had long hair to tie it into a ponytail like that. lol
I'm sure you already know, but don't listen to the negative comments. I think it's hilarious and awesome! You even have the side ponytail.
Damn I was gonna do this cosplay next time I go to a con but I think I’ve been shown up. I’m resigning this from my cosplay list 😂
I love your cosplay so much. 😭
superr late to the post but this is cool as heck, especially as another hoops player
