The cosplay gods have put you in charge of a homestuck cosplay bootcamp to get rid of all the shit everyone has to deal with at conventions. How do you do it? Who do you enlist as second in command? what do you mark as required reading, if anything?

Yeah I'm not wording it well. Too many homestuck kids don't understand social cues that any normal person should be able to pick up on. Ergo, you say "Sorry I have to go to [private activity], see you later" and they say "I'll come too!" and follow. I know, man up and tell them to fuck off, but then they bitch and moan about how mean you are.

I agree with general etiquette for shitty fans that has already been mentioned, but I also would love to see some training for those who don't like Homestuck on how to not be a cock ass about it. having less dumb fans would help but I still feel like people would be dicks anyway because it is not animoo/is very popular/has younger fans they like getting rises out of.

Everyone has to at least think about the grey sleeves/stockings/bodysuits.

Anyone who uses the "but it's about committing to the cosplay" argument is not allowed to cosplay any of the grey-skinned ones.

I don't even like Homestuck and I've heard that argument a billion times. It's a shitty fucking argument because your makeup ruins other people's costumes and makes the hotels mad as fuck. If you really want to insist on make-up have a good fucking reason and make sure you seal that shit properly.

I'd say it's definitely superior on the arms over ben nye. There's very minimal ruboff or transfer if you seal properly, whereas ben nye fades quickly even with sealing in my experience.

Selfpostin' with my rule 63 Equius. Spent the whole Sunday of MCM going around finding Nepetas to pick up and take pictures with, it was pretty great. Any concrit would be appreciated! I also have plenty of pictures of me hoisting said catgirls, if anyone wants those.

Ahh, christ, oh well. I went for the lace-up boots because I went for short shorts instead of knee-length shorts, I just kinda felt like it'd look weird/too leggy if I went with shoes rather than boots. My general goal was to wear pretty much the same as what he wears, but in cuts/styles more suitable to a female character. My horn actually broke during the photoshoot which was a huge bummer, but my boyfriend managed to reattach it with hairpins- just wound them around the hairband so that they were sticking straight up, then jammed the horn onto them. It actually worked really well, feels really secure now.

Okay wow yeah I know exactly what you're talking about. I was at a con the past weekend and when two cosplayers asked me when the photoshoot was, I told them, and they said they'd go with me. I politely explained I was going back to the dealer's room first so I'd see them around, and they responded with "no problem we'll just come with you!"
I know some kids haven't really been to many cons but it'd be nice if they could take a hint.

>> No.6870741

>>6870698
Yeah. Socially awkward kids who latch onto strangers in the same fandom are a problem. I'm an adult, and sometimes 13-year-olds who have been left unsupervised at the convention decide that I'm their new best friend. Then other people who see us together assume I'm responsible when they do stupid shit. I don't go to conventions to babysit some stranger's kids for free. But it's hard to escape without feeling like an asshole.

Hey HSG, I'm working on a sprite cosplay for SDCC and I was wondering if you could give me your opinion on which methods worked best for the tail, whether it's ignoring it completely and just wearing pants or going all out and sewing a wrap that covers your legs but renders you immobile (to be used for photoshoots only). Pic related. I'm tossing some ideas around for what I want to do and I'd like to hear your input.

Sprite OP here. Comparing the pictures, I think the wrap looks better when the person is sitting as opposed to standing, but that's probably a design I can tweak, so I'll mess around with that. The issue I'm having is that it doesn't seem like your legs have any leeway to move when they're bound like that, meaning that walking through a con hallway in a wrap tail would be impossible. I'll definitely sew it for a private shoot since that's closest to canon accurate, but as far as motion-friendly alternatives go, are pants kind of the only other option? I think I remember seeing a Tavrisprite on the boards who hooked a chiffon trail behind her, but that's all I'm coming up with as far as non-photoshoot tails go.

Alright, need some help with Dave...

The aviators I use for him are just typical aviator sunglasses, but the lenses are very reflective so they're basically like mirrors and a few cosplayers have stood in front of me to do so, not that I mind.

Should I go for more darker lenses?

Also... I was at a HS photoshoot on Sunday as GT Dave, and I saw another GT Dave in the crowd with iShades, but they were shaped rather oddly... upon further inspection they were most likely the iShades from that Akunijiscos (I can never get the name right off the top of my head, I'm sure y'all know which store I'm talking about though) store.

I probably should have went up to them and asked about their iShades, but I wasn't really feeling well that day so I just took off pretty quickly.

So, my question is... does anyone here have those shades? How's the quality?

And finally, if I were to make my own iShades, would I just stick Apple logo stickers onto some dark aviator sunglasses? I wouldn't know how to engrave the symbols onto the glasses and make them stand out, but that store does have iShades like that and if they're good enough then I'd consider getting them.

personally i prefer darker lenses over mirrored but that's just me.

i've tried sticking the apple logo stickers from when i got an ipod touch onto my aviators-- it didn't go very well since my stickers were a bit big for my shades and the surface was curved so the stickers puckered and didn't sit flat.
i think if you got/printed your own smaller stickers and clipped them a bit to follow the curve of your lenses it would probably work.

Was my post, pardon the size, and I figure, I use a pair of aviator sunglasses regularly, well for sunny days, so why not for Dave, but the fact that it's reflective probably isn't the best.

I try to at least think that at least it's not the ones that are tinted slightly of a certain colour.

Regardless, I'll go look for some darker lenses.

Sounds like a plan, then. Would I be able to... see through the stickers? Probably not, right? I mean, I could always just take the shades off when I'm trying to get around a con, either way.

probably not, unfortunately. it's been two years since i touched those stickers but iirc they're definitely opaque. you might get better visibility with translucent or thinned down glass paint, maybe? use opaque stuff for the outlines and the translucent stuff to fill in the apple.
this involves drawing it on yourself though, i don't know how steady your hand is.

Very unsteady, I'll either have to get someone to help me with that or if I use stickers, I'd have to get a handler or just remove the shades when walking around crowded places, and put them back on for photos. Thank you for the input though.

>> No.6872435

>>6872374
well actually depending on where the shades sit on your face and how big the apple sticker is, you might not have too much of a problem? bc from what i see the center of the shades isn't directly over your eyes, so you might be able to get away with just wearing your shades a bit lower on your face for visibility over the tops of the stickers and just sliding them back up your nose for photos. but yeah taking them off and putting them back on is always a good idea if the stickers sit in your vision too much.

That's why it was so oddly shaped! They must be small. Like, compared to regularly sized aviator sunglasses, how much smaller are they?

I mean, while Dave's usually depicted with aviator sunglasses, in the comic, his glasses look like there's only one bridge between the lens, while actual aviator sunglasses have two, the extra one being on top. Whereas these iShades only have the one bridge which I'd want to hope would be more true to the comic, if not for the unfortunate size.

Do you have a picture of some aviator sunglasses to compare? Pardon the questions, I've just been really curious about these glasses and I want to make sure I can improve upon Dave (since there seems to be a stigma on Daves, or Striders in general, so why not go the extra mile and go for the details like better shades and swords and the like)
