I mean, I've got an overbite myself and it's NOT easy to hide, ever. So when someone with a bunch of small, straight teeth does the lip-biting, it's very, very obvious. I think that fake teeth would be a lot better.

>> No.6262666

Pet peeve: weeaboos who hit on others because "OMG DAVE" or "OMG GAMZEE".
Slight story, but me and my girlfriend cosplay Dave and Terezi together as a couple. She passes pretty well as a guy, so naturally she gets a lot of attention. I get it, she's attractive, no big deal, I trust her and all that. But if I had a dollar for every stupid fangirl that pops up and plays coy and the stupid "nyaa dave-kun can I please have a kiss/hug/makeout/whatever?" I'd be loaded. Last year we were at a homestuck meet, not a con, and this natty looking Nepeta with no wig and awful unsealed paint comes up and just mashes her lips against my gf and starts shoving her tongue down her throat. Mind you, I'm right next to her. She just shoved her away and did the usual "Um excuse you?" routine and the Nepeta called her a party pooper. Apparently this is a thing she does with most attractive people cosplaying male characters according to the others at the meetup.

I think you should write a post about this on tumblr and tell them that whenever people mimic an overbite, they're actually being really insensitive and offensive towards people with actual overbites. I'm not making fun of you, I'm just saying it'd be a funny way to turn tumblr over on its head.

That's a pretty stupid idea and I think would just aggravate everyone needlessly. Most MSPA cosplayers already know not to try and mimic physical differences like overbites because it looks too forced, so anyone who posted that would just come off as stupid to that crowd. There would be a subset of idiots crying about how they're allowed to do anything they want and OP is a big meanie for telling them not to fuck around with their jawlines. And any SJAs who took the fight on as a legit issue would just annoy everyone and make fools of themselves.

The only potentially good thing about the inevitable influx of shitty Kurloz cosplayers is that hopefully they'll all insist on acting in-character and not talk.

Unless of course, they insist on trying to recreate the deafening "HONK". Which knowing the fandom, is what will probably happen.

But even if that holds true, they won't be able to talk forever before going hoarse. The Gamzee cosplayer's horns on the other hand, will forever be one of the worst plagues to befall cons.

Hey, figure you guys would be the best to ask,
What's your opinion on me modifying this helmet for my Mituna cosplay?

I'm going to replace the visor-glass to make it more accurate, and be drilling holes in it to feed the horns through.

I know that having a flip-up visor is inaccurate, but I'm only planning ahead, knowing I'm going to be spending a lot of time staring through red and blue, which can really start to hurt your eyes. I figured having a flip up visor would solve that problem. Plus it gives the option of having some nice face makeup, and white mesh contacts for the dead eye look.

Thoughts?

>>6264685
For ease of mobility, I like the idea of keeping the flip up visor.

That drama made me mad.

REALLY FUCKING MAD.

Especially as someone who actually got sexually assaulted by a Homestuck cosplayer.

He's not a prominent person by ANY means though, but I still feel a bit freaked out knowing that girls are probably going to chase after him at the next con he goes to.

It's a sad truth that sometimes the creepers in the fandom are deeply sick fuckers, and anyone who fakes such accusations is just spitting in the face of those who are actual victims. And making shit worse for everyone else, who is eventually going to grow tired of hearing these people "cry wolf".

I met this guy in person at the last con I went to. He's a little full of himself and very flirtatious but he wasn't a creep or an asshole. Kind of a playboy if anything. He and my friend made out a little actually.

He retold that entire story, and said the first girl was really clingy and he thought she was too young for him. That's why he ended it with her. There wasn't anything fishy about his story either, it all seemed like a bunch of trumped up spiteful drama to make him seem like an actual criminal instead of just a regular guy.

Asked one of his friends about him though and he said that he "doesn't have the best track record." Don't know what that's about, but whatever. Fun to hang out with at cons at least.

Supposedly he has a crush on Adebimpe but she lives so far away it wouldn't work.

I'm having a bit of a crisis. I want to cosplay Kurloz but I've never done a Homestuck cosplay before because I'm sort of nervous because other fans can be kind of crazy. I want this to look really good but I really don't want to do the mass-cosplayed version either. I'm really inspired by this person's Gamzee and I want to do something fancy but suiting for Kurloz, incorporating his skeleton design without going the same route as everyone else.

Not really sure what to do or if it's worth it. I really want to do an alternate design but I don't want to be another 'specialsnowflake-stuck' cosplayer.

Speaking as someone outside of the fandom:
1. Unique stuff stands out more.
2. I think it would be worth pursuing that concept as long as you figure out something that really suits the character. If you go too far outside of what the character might actually wear, you may risk being unrecognizable as him.
3. There are so many Homestuck cosplayers out there that I don't feel like anyone will single you out as a "special snowflake" unless you're kind of annoying and shitty as a person.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm waiting on more updates to learn more about him so I can try and figure out what would suit him. Though I really want to do a rocker/visual kei sort of look because I've always wanted to design an outfit like that for some Homestuck characters, I don't think I will unless I can make a good design with the skeleton and the face paint.

I'm actually going to buy the white mesh lenses so I can see a bit, but only for photoshoots because they obviously don't come in prescription and I have horrible eyesight. You can get them from youknowit.com. My friends also bought them and they work REALLY well!

Honestly, for the trolls, you can go either way. You can use brown contacts to simulate black eyes (if you're going for younger trolls), or you can use contacts in their blood color. I think the latter would be a lot better now.

That's what the majority of the "dead" troll cosplayers use.

For the Post SGRUB-scratch (Karkat + co.) Trolls, I'd suggest going with Black/Brown. Nothing in canon has changed to say that their eyes have filled with the blood color yet, and unless you're going for an "older" look, I'd suggest going with Black or Brown.

Posting myself here because I have no shame. Note, this was my FIRST EVER cosplay that wasn't just a bunch of commissions piled together, or bought-then-edited items (sans the mask and shoes, one cannot make shoes unless working in a sweatshop in China). I'm proud to say I recently went through old cosplays and found the mask...and laughed my ass off at what a Homestaku I once was.

She slapped another girl at the Homestuck meet at AX (the panel was cancelled and Heaven started crying, the other girl came over to check on her and Heaven slapped her). She got kicked out of the room she was staying at because of it and was generally a huge bitch about everything

A lot of people like her but they don't know about her drama and the fact that she belittles everyone and talks shit about their cosplay when they're not around.

She posted a makeup test for Meenah that was photoshopped and flipped out when people pointed it out. She went on to post photos and then GIFS of herself crying over it.

lol my friend will probably see this

My friend and I are dressing up for an upcoming con. She made me these super wonderful Vriska horns a year ago. Now she's going as one of the kids and I'm doing Vriska. However, I'm really not into greying myself up at all. Some people do it wonderfully, but just I don't think I'd want to. Since I'm an artist, I go to cons to speak with other artists and do not want conduct professional conversations while grey. I figured I'd do just an outfit that kind of fits and jokes on the many AUs. More like Hipster!Vriska. I'm not considering this a cosplay and I'm not attending any shootings or whatever because I'm not sticking to character.

Anyway, my big fear is that it's going to look like I was like, "oh shit nigger, I just rolled out of the closet." Can anyone give me some tips for stuff like this?

The bad news is, you're still gonna look like you rolled out of the closet because that is essentially what Vriska wears. Unless you do a really well-known AU (say, 4Chords), it's probably gonna look like there's no effort put into it. And by the sounds of it, it looks like effort isn't what you're looking for anyway.

I guess just make the presentation as good as you can? Make yourself look decent, wear nice clothes that fit with the character but also flatter your body. I mean, tumblr will eat that shit up anyway and we're still gonna tear you up for going the casual route so at this point, it's a bit redundant to care that much.

I loved that Katsu Jane! What a cutie.

HS cosplay fandom is so...weird and cliqueish that way. I'm not a Name in the fandom exactly but I've done a few cosplays that were super popular for a little while and it's weird because then the BNFs started talking to me and...they're nice enough and some of us are even friends but it feels odd and cliqueish, you know? I like talking to them on Twitter but it all feels a little ostentatious and LOOK AT ALL US FANDOM FAMOUS PEOPLE KNOWING EACH OTHER sometimes. It's like anyone with a popular cosplay immediately becomes a part of that group, like they just get snatched up? I like the people I'm talking to but...when HS fanom ends, I wonder if we'll have anything in common.

thank you- i appreciate the compliments, guys! i lurk here and post cosplay and advice in these threads as anon now and then, so i thought adopting a little trip for moments like these wouldn't be a bad idea. i like addressing problems face to face, because everyone gets a clean answer that way. i know the homestuck threads here can get crazy but i think the people in them are generally pretty reasonable, we all just go off the deep end sometimes because of the truly stupid shit this fandom can pull.

also, to >>6267885's point about the underage girls: i totally agree. i am a pretty huge advocate for 'your body, your decisions', but that really goes out the window when you're under 18. even if you're posing in a bra and underwear that shit can still be illegal depending on where you are and i don't wanna see that scrolling down my dash. it's not about 'ruining fun', it's about, you know, not wanting to see an underaged girl with her boobs spilling out of her bra. that legit counts as child porn in some places. once that same 16 year old girl turns 18 then i think she's free to prance through the internet being naked all she wants, but not a moment before that. i don't know why there are so many young girls chomping at the bit to show off their bodies like that on tumblr. it's really nothing that can't wait a little longer, and there are other ways to garner healthy/positive attention online.

EXACTLY. It just makes me so uncomfortable to see a girl on my dash that may possibly be underage and then she's got just a bra and panties on or something. It's illegal to send those kinds of pictures through phones, so why would they think it's okay to post them where so many strangers can see it? (if they're underage) I know I've never taken those kinds of pics before, but honestly it just doesn't seem as glamorous as they make it seem.

Regardless of anyone's age, I really don't like this "nudestuck" fad going around lately. Maybe I'm just old and no fun, but it just seems a little tacky to me to post grainy webcam photos of your tits hanging out. It would be one thing if it were something along the lines of artistic nudity but it's never the case. There are a lot of other ways to "love your body" without resorting to things like that. I also don't like the fact that if you even so much as mention that you don't like it, you get screechy fiends coming out of the woodwork to tell you to stop body shaming or some noise.
I know it's stupid to drop a series because of the fandom, because you shouldn't let other people's behavior affect how you enjoy things, but lately this fandom has really been grinding my gears.

My thoughts exactly. There's two minors in particular from where I live, and as much as I want to tell them at cons that they're too young (14/15, iirc?) I had to literally sit through an entire Skype conversation where everyone called /cgl/ "Pedos" for commenting about how young they were and that Anons were being "so mean because they have hot butts, lawl". It doesn't help that the people promoting this kind of behaviour in these girls were 20+ and knew better themselves.

That's a fantastic idea! I can't believe I didn't think of that. But thanks!

Hey so I have a question, I just got in the Hot Topic skeleton leggings for my Kurloz cosplay and they glow, thus are a little bit yellow. Not OH GOD SO YELLOW, but tinted. Sort of like yellow teeth.

I was originally just going to return them but I started thinking of making my entire outfit glow instead. It won't be bright pearly white, but it also won't be obviously yellow either. Mainly I want to do this because the photoshotos I have planned are all night/dark environment shoots and I think it would be very cool to have the skeleton still show where light may not be hitting my body.

Do you think that doing this and sacrificing the pearly white bones will take away from the cosplay more than it's worth to have the effect? Pic related, it's the leggings. It's only obvious that they aren't white white when they're actually next to white things.

Follow up pic, these are the leggings next to another pair I have which don't glow. Like I said, they only stick out as NOT WHITE when they're next to something that is.

Foundation on your lips might dry the hell out of them. I would try to find a good matte nude lipstick.

Yup, i'm seerofsarcasm. I would have asked on my tumblr, but I find the most honest opinions come from those who are anonymous and pretty much everyone on here is a cosplayer with high standards so i'll get the best answers.

Hey, so quick question here. Do you guys think meulins black shirt is a dress shirt, or is it a regular shirt with a collar?

Hey just want to let you know I love your Kanaya to bits and pieces and you are super cute

And to address your question, if you think you'll be spending some time in the dark or even having a glow-in-the-dark photoshoot, I don't think it'd be an issue to have them slightly yellow. If anything, you or your photog could edit them to become more pearly white in post-processing anyway. In person/at meetups, it probably won't matter too much either if your entire outfit is coordinated to be glow-in-the-dark and has that overall yellowish tinge to it.

I don't think that's going to work all that well.

Glow in the dark paint is light-activated, and unless you stand under a bright light for a bit before running out to pitch black darkness, it's not going to show up.

Though it sounds like a good idea in theory!

Oh goodness thank you! c: I'm so happy people like my Kanaya, I can't wait to get more shoots with her than the few photos I have now. Thanks for the input!
>>6268972
I was worried about that, but to test it I walked around in my apartment in the tights for a few hours and they glowed pretty brightly when I turned all the lights off, and my apartment just has normal lighting. Most of my photoshoots would be at night, so I think a day of walking around a well-lit con would charge them up enough if I did the shoot quickly.

That sounds like a good idea! Also, if you think the light is starting to fade from the shoot but you're still not done (I've never been in one so I have no idea for how long they last), just head inside for a bit and try to get as much light exposure on the glow in the dark paint as possible for maybe 45 minutes? I'm not sure how long it takes to absorb a decent amount of light.

Gah, probably not helping that much. I wish that I used GITD paint more than once. :l

Ive actually heard that if you have an LED flashlight it will recharge glow in the dark stuff like woah. I'm gonna test that out later with the small one in my desk once it gets darker.

I ordered purple military boots online, then I have these leggings, then I found purple leggings to match the boots, got them in a larger size and am going to cut them off and hem them to make the shorts. For the shirt ive got a black turtleneck that's the same shade as the leggings, i'll be altering that to fit my body more snug and then making gloves out of a black knit fabric and sewing them onto the bottom of the sleeves. From there i'll be using stencils to paint on the skeleton design, then there's the makeup, dead eye contacts, and for the wig i'll be attempting to turn Arda's Nicki wig into his wild hair. For the horns I just got those party city horns that look just like his and i'll be painting those and attaching them under the wig.

I would have just gotten the zentai suit that everyone seems to be getting but it would hug me in all the wrong places up top and it would be harder to make myself look less feminine.

Yeah, men have it easy with the zentai suits. And I don't think binding would help either because even if you could make yourself flat, you still have curves. Not to mention that a lot of binders I see would probably show through the zentai suit and look like weird angles. :/

By the way, I wanted to say that you're very pretty. You pull off Vriska very well! I have to admit that I'm jealous of you. ^^;

Jesus christ you're all nice wow. Thank you! I'm actually not happy with my Vriska right now, i'm working on a god tier because I don't think I did her original outfit justice. But your compliment means a lot to me! No need to be jealous though haha there are plenty of quality Vriska's in this fandom.

I'm lucky in that because of how my weight is on my body, when I put my full-torso binder on it all but completely takes out the dip I have for my waist. But my upper body would just look...awful with a zentai suit on goodness. You could definitely be able to tell I was wearing a binder.

I would say it's definitely a dress shirt. You don't see too many regular shirts with structured dress shirt-type collars...
