> Have you been to any cosplay meets, con or otherwise? And if so, discuss how they were like.
> Similarly, what's your local comm like?
> What Homestuck cosplays have you done in 2013? Do you plan to do more this year?

Do you prefer a gradient or stripe effect with troll horns? I've just made about 5 pairs of different horns and I want to start painting them, but I don't know which looks better.

[Anonymous No.7319886]

>>7319882
Personally, I like the block stripes better.

The usual consensus that I've seen on here is, if you based your horns on actual animal horns or gave them a texture, do a gradient, but if not it could go either way.

Also, to >>7319904, block stripes are actually not too easy. I've painted flags on things before and if the masking tape moves even slightly when you're painting, it can take ages to fix the mistake.

[Anonymous No.7322543]

Anyway, they need to layer the shit out of it. Get one of those hair razors (like $10 at Sally's or you can get them on Arda's website) and hack the fuck away. Dave's hair is short and looks best kinda fluffy. Maybe leave the front pieces a little longer to act as "sideburns" because your friend looks like they have a rounder face and longer side pieces will be more flattering.

I've been cosplaying almost exclusively Homestuck for more than a year now and you don't get nearly as much disdain as you'd think (idk about your friends, but if they're judging you purely on what you cosplay, then they're not very good friends).

i feel like a lot homestuck cosplayers, especially young ones (since they seem to be pretty young, going out with parents) are pretty shy; homestuck is baby's first cosplay. they want to try to be all special, thinking they have the confidence to go cosplay in public, but don't realize how shy they actually are until they're out and about

[Anonymous No.7331192]

>>7331157
If I had to guess, they were probably on their way back from a local meetup (usually held in public places like parks). If the kids were that shy about being in a restaurant in grey, their parents probably wanted to grab some food before going home. They weren't acting pretentious or loud, so I don't see what the big deal is, especially since you could have swapped "homestuck" for "snk" or "hetalia" and the story would have been the same.

[Anonymous No.7331222]

>>7331157
They probably had a small meetup with friends, got hungry, and wanted to be as unobtrusive as possible in an area where no other cosplayers were and other people were just trying to eat. It's the same way I'd behave even coming back from a con and stopping for food at a place away from the main con area. They weren't acting strangely at all; cosplay weirds people out enough, I'm sure they were aware of that and wanted to just get through the line with as little negative attention drawn to them as possible. Idk why you're acting like this is some cosplay phenomenon anomaly. Haven't you ever had to stop somewhere in cosplay en route to or from a con or event? If you have, you know the "people are staring and I'd better act as humble as possible" routine well.

Because their parents wouldn't let them? Because they didn't drive? I don't know, man, ask their parents next time they come to your store if it bothers you so much.

Not the anon you're replying to, but... why're you posting that story, seriously? It sounds like they were at a cosmeet with their family, left, decided to get food, got to the shop, wanted to choose what they ordered or wanted to stretch their legs or something, came in, then were shy when talked to about their attire because they're young and probably didn't think anyone would talk to them about their costumes.

Really, it's not a /cgl/-worthy story. It's just "I saw kids cosplaying in public and they were shy when I asked them about it." Which is an experience most normalfags have.

I think she said she'd do one more costume if Beforus-verse Aradia ever happened?
But I don't think we're getting any official designs of any of those. Which is a shame because I badly want to see what Hussie would do with them and it would break up the monotony of seeing the same old ancestor groups all the time. A Beforus version Feferi would probably be gorgeous. The only cosplay I can think of for Beforus trolls is SS's Feferi, though.

She was actually going to do picture related- quartz and melody, designed by SaccharineSylph. She made Feferi's dress to be Dew and Glass to go with Cifera's, but she never finished it. So SS turned it into Beforus Feferi instead.

Try almost everything she's made up until this ballgown. With the exception of her trickster cosplay and a few others, everything she's done been either lazy, sloppy, or unnecessarily reveling.

In that case you may have your pick of the guys if your jaw gives you a younger look, since they're all teens. If your jawline really bothers you, you can also try a strider since the glasses mask a lot of your face. I also think a weak jaw would work well for Tavros.
