That guy carrying the Roxy is so creepy. He always asks to pick people up. This is the first time I've seen him carrying someone without them straddling his head (so with their thighs on either side).

At AX he kept asking a friend and I to let him pick us up and wouldn't take no for an answer. We ended up going to security about it and they said they had other complaints about him.

If you think that lifting people is creepy then that's like, your opinion, man. It's got nothing to do with me.

That said I can be a be too insistent at times and it's been cringe worthy even for me a couple of times so if I've bothered you or your friends at cons before, I really am super sorry. I'm kind of just a loud bully of a guy, not going to make any excuses. Still, security has not once at a single con ever told me that I was 'creeping people out' so I can't imagine that too many people are complaining. Like you said, it's been over a year and a half.

I'm gonna guess ask whatever website you're selling on to take down your post/listing. They actually have someone in charge of handling those kinds of things, idk if they've ever sent cease and desists but they probably could if it was a big enough problem. I wouldn't worry a whole lot on one-time sales tbh, it seems like a waste of time for them to pursue every case.

I don't wanna start any arguments but damn I've never understood why everyone feels so fiercely entitled to sell their homestuck shit. Like yeah it sucks that it's "not allowed" but they're within their rights and it's not like wp is some mega-corporation

You can make one using a foam base + cover it with either model magic or paperclay, buy a real lollipop and just keep it in the plastic, or buy a realistic fake (ie http://www.etsy.com/listing/124858178 ). Then just use either alligator clips or a small hair comb to attach them!

Pretty much anything she posts is drama and whining at HSers even though she's twice their age.

Those things DID happen, and she majorly needs to stop being nasty when she disagrees with someone. As well as stop feeding into anon hate. If she did that, most people would leave her alone.

Apologies for the late reply, but I've only bought from them once, but the wig that I do have (it's not in stock anymore, sadly) is really great. It's thick and the fibers are really nice. They're from China, I think, so a few weeks (mine got here in around 2, and I'm on the east coast) for shipping, I believe? And from what I remember, the shipping was only like a dollar or two. Also, I was able to email customer support and get a tracking number from them, as well.
The only thing I'd be aware of is that their wigs aren't as large as Ardas are, for example. If you've ever ordered from Ebay, I'd say that their wigs are around that size.

be as spot-on as you possibly can. have a good photographer or at least know how to work your angles. people who do funny shit often get noticed as long as it's actually funny and not just sad. also, there are canon costumes that are rarely if ever done well-- canon dreamers, dead shuffle dress, john's ectobiology suit, some of kanaya's alternate outfits, etc. Clip your threads and do a super clean sewing job on something like those and you'll get noticed.

Hello, hsg! I come asking for critique on my Feferi wig + horns. I've never really posted here, but have been posted a few times, so I blocked out my face. I know there are a couple people here working on Fef cosplays, so I also would really like to hear from you/them on how your/their stuff is going and what you/they might be doing different from me! I've had all my stuff done for like a month but I just now got to style my wig. Anyway, what do you think I could do different/improve/etc.?

Should people not do a cosplay if it's so easy? Like, Dave's easy to do: Topatoco shirt + blonde wig + sunglasses, and if you want to get to the details, black jeans and usually, red Converse shoes.

But easiness sort of leads to a lazy way out, so it's looked down upon, right? I mean, that explains why there are always a billion Daves at every meet and con, ever.

I like wearing Alpha Dave to small, casual meetups. It's comfortable to drive in and relatively inconspicuous if we're in a public place like a park. I don't really look down on people who do "easy cosplays" because the way I see it, a bad cosplayer will be bad if they're doing an easy outfit or a tough one. Just because something is easy doesn't mean you'll look mediocre.

Because my first Homestuck cosplay was Alpha Dave, and I made sure I got the jeans and shoes right, and I've even made two timetables, although one kinda broke. I suppose to really complete the outfit I'd have to at some point make the Caledscratch, and then fine tune and touch up the details. Easy to start, but it'd be difficult to really perfect and actually stand out, look presentable, etcetera.

That they don't exist. I don't mean to be negative. But character panel's are usually awful. The costumes could be amazing but good cosplay does not equal good acting nor good writing. Even the panels that are done by people with theatrical experience (I'm looking at you homestuck monologues) are usually terrible simply do to the overacting and bad tone. Homestuck is genius because it leaves the readers to interpret the emotions and feels and character development and doesn't shove it in your fucking face with horrid bland dialog like most character panels I've seen.

PT 2. To be the devil's advocate of my own response and to provide some actual positive feedback. If you're dead set on doing a character panel, at least to the following.

>Have a dedicated, talented cast.
Don't just recruit people off of tumblr for a panel. You need synergy with your performers and they need to WANT to be there.

>Write around what you have
Getting a dedicated cast is a bitch. If you reaaaaallly want to write a script about your terrible SolKat ship but don't have either a good Sollux or Karkat cosplayer? Guess what you probably shouldn't write about.

>Be serious, but don't take things so seriously.
This is your work. Do the best you can but at the same time you're there to have fun. Homestuck at it's core is a comic based off of humor. A 10 minute show about Nepeta crying about how she's dead and can't see Karkat is going to get nothing but eye rolls (And maybe tears from shippers, but they're not people)

>> No.6772890

>>6772790
>>6772830
>>6772872

>Proof read, proof read, proof read
Seriously. Proof read. Write your script. Read it. Read it out fucking loud. Then have your friends read it out loud. Then have fucking strangers read it out loud. Because you know what? Eventually you'll hear something in your writing that sounds over done, misfitting, or just plain terrible.

>Rehearse
A panel at it's core is a show, and nothing hurts a show more than everyone doing their own shit. Rehearse. Make sure everyone is on the same page so you can expect things to go smoothly.

>Do something different
I go to fan panels all the time. Not because they amuse me but because they tend to be terrible. No one wants to watch the five people sitting behind a table answering questions while half-assedly trying to be in character. Do something unique. If you want to be successful, be memorable.

>Don't be the Homestuck Monologues
That's all I've got there.

I did my first makeup test today for Aranea which was actually a lot of fun, but I was wondering if there's any way to keep the makeup from possibly smudging where my glasses rest on my nose. I wear normal glasses as is so I'll be switching from one to the other [I'm blind as a bat].

Would extra sealing spray and more powder help or is there possibly another solution? Any advice would help and thanks in advance!

Garments, even if they're only costumes, are classified as "functional garments" instead of original artworks. This they have to fit much stricter guidelines for how original the artist's design is before the court will consider violations. Just in general, you can't copywrite clothes patterns or methods of construction (which is how Halloween companies get away with all their knockoffs). Items like striped scarves, anime glasses, cat face hats, have all been produced by other garment makers and seen in other media and there's no way to claim an original or significantly artistic contribution by hussie so. The class outfits are based on a lot of generic medieval fantasy costumes and anyone with an art history textbook could prove it.

ALSO in homestuck's case in particular there's the issue of any cosplay being made has to make significant original alterations/interpretations because the art is so shitty and simplified there's no way they could ever make a case that the cosplayer stole their methods of construction (because you can't copyright color or silouette)

All that said the symbols on the costumes that are ORIGINAL to hussie (the kids and the aspect symbols) are copywrited so I guess they could get you on that. The troll symbols are public domain though so tough shit on Hussie.

Tldr; clothing can't be copywrited but the symbols and name can so if you do commissions don't call them homestuck and be subtle about offering to stick aspect symbols on

The hat company Rachel got in a fight with over te nepeta hats had a really good breakdown of all this with case references if you want more info
