Grotesque Burlesque is heading to C2E2 2026 for a special on-site pop-up featuring live figure drawing sessions with cosplay models, happening right on the show floor next to Cosplay Central.This will be a series of drop-in, open figure drawing sessions. Stop by for a few minutes or hang out for a full session. All skill levels are welcome, from seasoned illustrators to first-time sketchers.
What to expect:
• Live cosplay figure drawing
• Dynamic poses and rotating model roster
• A casual, welcoming environment
• High-top tables and space to move (less classroom, more hangout)
• The signature Grotesque Burlesque mix of art, vibes, and community
Basic drawing supplies will be available, and participants are encouraged to bring their own sketchbooks and tools. This event is free to C2E2 participants, but tips and donations are welcome during sessions.
This is GB doing what we do best! Creating an inclusive, low-pressure space to draw, observe, and connect, just on a much bigger, nerdier stage!
More details coming soon, including session times, model details, and schedules. Follow this event and our instagram page for updates.
