Okay, so in the land of Homestuck and copyright, riddle me this.

We know the dress Feasts gave Porrim is an actual dress. One that can be found here >item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z10.1.w3.9.epZWfe&id=14323380450

It's the same thing down to the buttons and belt. It's not just a vague black dress, and even she said that she used that dress.

So how come it's alright for Porrim to have such a specific dress and yet Rachel thinks Homestuck lays claim to striped scarves in specific colors? (Sure MF used a Roxy photo for the listing, but that doesn't mean the scarf should be taken down.)

At least Aranea's coat was a different color than the original.

For bonus points, sell replicas of Porrim's dress and see how fast Rachel shits a brick.

Also, I realize Homestuck isn't selling the dress or something, but it still very clearly (and is openly admitted) not to be an original design.

Because... I don't know why. Homestuck has shittons of brand name stuff either directly copy-pasted in or taken as a design influence. I guess it only matters when someone cares enough to make a claim.

Rachel is shit head and no one likes her. The reason things could be taken down under guise of copyright infringement (as far as I'm aware) is because if it's promoted or advertised as being Homestuck, it's illegal. If you make a Roxy scarf and call it "Roxy scarf" or advertise it as a Homestuck item, that's against the copyright. It's all bullshit and I don't understand why the HS team is so anal about it in comparison to other copyright holders.

I think there was a Fef and Kanaya skirt that were using Homestuck to be sold (and obviously were ripped off), but I think I recall reading the scarf listing and there was no mention of Homestuck at all. Just the Roxy photo.

Even just showing it on a Roxy cosplay is legally not okay, because it's "using Homestuck to promote the item" or something like that. It's stupid, but true.

People who hate that tumblr stuff becomes canon have really misunderstood the creation model of every single MSPA ever.

MSPA has ALWAYS had a reader driven creative process. It started right here on 4chan with Jailbreak, "first post decides what to do next" style. Then it got its own website and moved to user submissions. With Homestuck, the reader base is just too large for submissions to be practical anymore, so he monitors forums, tumblr, and things people email him to see what's most popular. Homestuck is a product of its fanbase, with Hussie as a sort of global moderator. He knows the story, we tell him how it gets there.

Aside from that, the man does have a pretty twisted sense of humour, him and Ryan North both. Sometimes he does just straight up choose something because he thought it was hilarious.

There are times when it's a bad idea, though, because the tumblr side of the fandom can be stone cold retarded. It seems like the insane romantic drama going on in canon lately is a case of 'poking at the fandom gone bad', because it's getting a little bit ... ugh.

not the worst by far; the symbols are very clean and the colors are good which is one of the most common fails of godtier stuff. However it looks like you're a novice sewer and used cheap fabric? Your next step is definitely learning how to line and face your pieces, that'll improve them massively, because as it as there's gross hems everywhere.

The shapes of the garments aren't bad but could use some work as well. Her sleeves are more bell shaped at the mouth, and I think the front of the hood sits a bit low.

Assuming you've a sewing noob it's pretty decent, but work on your fabric choosing skills and start trying to line stuff (your improvement will be massive as soon as you figure it out i promise). I'd also try to throw some styling in that wig, and look for some accurately-colored shoes.

IRON OUT YOUR HEMS.

I put in caps so you REMEMBER TO ALWAYS DO IT. And use an iron in general, it looks a bit like a wrinkly mess and could have looked so much better if you'd just taken the time in the morning to iron your fabric.

Also, you should work on better poses.You're slouching in this picture, which almost always looks terrible in cosplay. The only except would be if a character canonly slouches, of course. Rose does not.

The fabric looks a bit thin and puckered, especially on the hood and near the thigh slits. The front part of the cape hood would benefit if it looked less like bib; Rose's cape fabric bunches slightly around her neck, laying almost like a scarf. I also think both of the painted logos sit too low on your frame. The sun should be near your chest and the swirls at your natural waist, while right now the sun is on your stomach and the swirls at your hips. Rose's sleeves are also heavily sloped while yours are straight cut. The shoes should be light blue with crossed ribbons/straps rather than black. I also agree with others that the lower eye liner might be too strong for the character. That being said, the leggings look great, the colors are accurate (many choose too dark of an orange), and I'm glad to see your headband's gold.

SBARG was kind of a RP type event that happened [and kind of died off so quickly]. You could take the in depth personality test to figure out what God Tier status you would be or you could do it at random. At random you also got to learn what your Land would be.

Friends would be on teams of Four with their God Tier selves and usually just resulted in a lot of fanart.

The Trolls are shit. A good chunk of them never got to god tiers and their normal designs are very simple and boring. Newer trolls are a step in the right direction, but only because Hussie decided to actually give them clothes that differ significantly from one another.

The kids are shit, they got to god tiers but a lot of their design is very simple and boring.

Half of the adult characters don't even wear anything out of the ordinary.

It's like cosplaying someone else. Boring as fuck.

At least the god tiers won't get mistaken for a random ass geek in a convention.

I'd say it's more interesting than any of the alpha/beta kids and their guardians.

Trolls only get bump of interest from me cause holy shit is that paint is hard to get on and off properly.

I really want to cosplay Eridan's original outfit but I'm having trouble deciding how to go about making the pants? Or rather, what to start from.

Agreed that heels don't seem a Jade thing (she was climbing all over LoFaF in that dress, albeit in the Squiddle sneakers), but I think shorter cosplayers wear heels for aesthetic's sake.

I think they're just using that as a basis as to why others do the signless sign. For Christianity, that sign is a symbol of interpretation that was used all throughout the Byzantine Era of art heading in to the Medieval and even in to the early Renaissance. Though even then there were different ways to do the hand signs give the open palm, two fingers or three finger pose that each held a significance. But yeah, the open palm like that is a "I come in Peace" type meaning the signless sign is just a remembrance of the Signless that died in the troll world.

I think this is a bit funny, no offense to you. A lot of the Porrim cosplayers we've seen look mature but have shitty costumes, yet the girl with the childish face actually pulls it off quite well (not including the tights/shoes), even though this isn't her primary outfit.

She's one of those people who can't really handle any form of critique, even if it's helpful and could be used to improve her skills. I wish Heaven wouldn't jump to being offended at the idea of people criticizing her and instead try to take the critique to heart and stop cutting corners.
She can't keep claiming that 'difficulty level isn't a problem for her' and that she's a 'theatre major' when her work really isn't up to par. It's average at best and very lacking at worst, but she acts as though she's an expert. I'm not saying this because I don't like Heaven- I actually do. I think she has a lot of potential, and that the drama about her here has often been blown out of proportion. But I think that if someone tried to tell her this directly, she wouldn't listen at all. She's a lot like cod-tier, she has the capability to be good at what she does but refuses to accept any criticism whatsoever and so she falls short of the line every time.
Since she does lurk these threads, I hope you see this and try to consider it, Heaven. You need to accept that you have a long way to go, and while it might damage your ego to accept criticism, your ego could use a bit of deflating anyway. Just being honest.

Damn, your horns look great, only wish they weren't oriented the opposite way. I think you could be pretty good with some make-up. Also the white outline from your iron-on is really getting to me, but other than that, I think it's satisfactory. Keep working on it.

>dumb aradia cosplayer

At least you're honest. Definitely don't make faces like that for the camera, it looks ridiculous.
Your symbol has a white line around it. Get rid of that. Paint it over or redo the shirt.
Your horns are backwards. I know references for Aradia's horns contradict each other a lot, but they're definitely never looked like that.
Shoes are inaccurate and so is the bottom hem of the shirt. Your skirt might be too long, but it also looks like you might just be wearing it too low.
Your eye makeup is lacking- it looks pink and it's barely noticeable when your eyes are open. The troll girls that wear makeup (Vriska, Aradia etc) have very dramatic eyes. You need to get a darker red and practice more.

This is a really simple costume and it should be difficult to fuck up. You have a lot of changes to make, but they're not really major ones. Small fixes will improve your cosplay.

All of this.

>>6387935
About half of critique often revolves around makeup application, so when you have more makeup, posting a makeup test would be helpful.
Symbol could be brighter.
Shorten the hem of your skirt. In panels where she's in expanded sprite form (like one of the panels from her introduction), you can see her socks and the pattern on them.
If you end up redoing the shirt entirely, work in the divot that's at the centre bottom (some people interpret this to be a button-down shirt, which I'm not averse to).
Find or paint shoes that aren't Converses to match her sprite.
With the simple, basic designs, assembling a good cosplay comes down to getting details as accurate as you can.

The dress is pretty good, I'm not debating that, but I don't think she pulls off looking like Porrim which is a big part of cosplaying. So no I don't think she pulls off being Porrim well. Also this version is easy, the main reasons other Porrims look bad in the other outfit even if they are good looking is trying to fit that style dress, the dress materials, and tattoo makeup which this version lacks.

diff anon but HSG also rips on every little thing they can think of when it comes to popular cosplayers even when they are humble.

I think it's more the "One a pedestal" thing.

Where your art may be something you are perfectly happy with, another piece of art is liked by many for whatever reason.

More eyes means more criticism.

Though valid criticisms should be taken, there is an increase in jeering and negative attention as well.

Also anonymity allows for bitchy behavior without much of the stigma of being a bitch.

She can pull the 'well it was a last minute cosplay' or 'it was just for a small con' card all she likes, but the fact of the matter is if you're going to claim to be a great seamstress, you have to prove it first through your own work.

Love the look of the horns, wig, and contacts. Makeup could do with some touching-up, but white tends to get streakier than other colours and these also look like at-con photos (instead of a photoshoot).

perfect

Also, nice to see an actual buff male cosplaying Bro for once instead of a skinny teenage girl.

Dat arm.

Also, it might be the makeup, but she looks like a HUGE 8ITCH. Perfect for Vriska.

The robot armsock only looks good if actual effort is put in (as opposed to just drawing on circumference lines). I have an eternal lust for clunky well-done metal-and-joints robot arms. I like the paint job on hers, especially.

Yeah, he doesn't look that buff in that picture. Maybe he isn't buff at all.

It's still better than someone like the Dave he's posing with trying to pull off a Bro cosplay.

It's the jawline.

Can't really emulate the jawline as a girl.

This photo just creeps me out for some reason, I think it's Meulin's face.

the unfortunate angle makes it look like Kurloz is a midget with t rex arms and a gigantic head and Meulin is literally the size of a house cat. This would be a cute pic, too bad the photographer had no idea what they were doing and fucked the whole thing up.

I completely agree. I wear 2 inch heels with my 3am dress because I'm only 5'2'' and I look ridiculously stupid in flat shoes and a long dress

I think it looks good either way, as long as it fits the person cosplaying
