A pastebin full of tutorials, links, and general helpful info for Homestuck cosplays. As always, more input of any kind will always welcomed Tutorials, wig suggestions, any suggestion or contribution is great and will be added.

Regardless, we can always discuss:
> 2014 is almost over, what HS cosplays have you done this year? Do you plan to do more HS cosplays in 2015?
> What's your favorite HS cosplay that anyone has done?
> Have you ever been to any Homestuck panels? What were they like?

Does anyone have experience with lace front wigs? The one i bought from Arda was extremely tight on my head, and i also looked like shit, maybe i'm just uggo?

The wig i got was a Dany during the Black friday sale, i plan to fix the hairline so it's good for fef.

The wig is going to be for Feferi, also is there any Feferi's that used goggles and didn't look like weenies?

>> No.7986695

>>7986677
Pure black wigs look like shit without makeup and especially lace fronts in my experience. With that said, I do think the final result is great. Just make sure your hair/wig cap doesn't show through the lace. Also, cutting the hairline to look more natural really helps. Lace tight to the hair and whatnot.

Also, ardas LFWs have much tighter lace than what the first one I bought, so that may be part of it, that it just looks unnaturally thick.

Try filling in your eyebrows if they're light, just that usually gives a much better representation of how it'll look in the end. Seriously, when I fill in my brows it bumps the 100% black lace fronts from "what te actual fuck" to "ah okay".

Previous lace anon.
I have two short lace fronts, one from the sale Arda had in november because they were disstatisfied with the lace quality of that batch (wrong colour or something) so they sold them all for like 30 bucks. I also have one I bought off of ebay. Arda's lace is definitely finer and softer, but that might just be that batch. Even then, with the ebay wig which is clearly plastic, I can't say it's particularly scratchy at all. At least not when the wig is fit snugly and the lace glued.

On that topic, best way to glue lace fronts without bunch of grey getting stuck on the back of the lace?

>> No.7987328

>>7986855
I really wanted to buy a wig during that sale/ bad batch thing, if i remember the lace was too soft. The lace on the one i have is very plastic-y, but i don't really have any other lace fronts to compare to.

Also to answer your other question, in the Arda video posted up-thread they show that there is double-sided wig tape, so instead of great getting on the lace it would get on the tape.

But i've never tried it so i can't be sure. Either way i hope you find a solution to your problem.

A have friends that wear lacefronts and have both the bad batch and the regular Arda lacefronts.

Lacefronts in general tend to be a bit scratchy. Especially ethnic ones, it makes them easier to add spirit gum to and glue into place for a long period of time.

Softer lacefronts tend to not last as long because when they are cleaned they rip.

Arda' bad batch was made with a super soft lace, but its very peach and the mesh is farther apart, which makes it easier to see if you are up close and try to cover it. It also makes hair knots (which is how the hair is put onto the wefts more noticeable)

The regular Arda Wigs lace that is scratchy is pretty much what a high quality ethnic wig would be made of. Again because its easier to clean spirit gum off of.

As for how to apply them:
http://youtu.be/xrNcVbdGqgA?list=UU2GHrm3pUEi8iWAe41UWRzA

I've been considering doing one of those article things on the subject with comparisons of lacefronts. Including ones from FashionIsWig

Guess what time it is.
That's right, time for the ~Crunchy year review 2k14~

So a few notes before I begin, first off, the year isn't quite over yet, so I reserve myself for the fact that new statements or cosplays may show up.

Due to the reoccuring discussions about quantity I also want to point out how few cosplayers reach the output that CBC&;co has. The average is around four or five cosplays from what I can see so far, and asking more than a finished cosplay every twice months is actually asking a lot. This also ties in with the appearance of people on the list appearing in the tags. Please remember that there are people behind these names, with real life stuff to do and real feelings and whatnot.

I'm going from the top and headed down.

Notes:
Quality is still high and gratious WIP-shots are many. Fun to follow and post Homestuck material even outside of cosplay. Criticisms are generally nitpicky. Only downside is that there’s not a huge amount of final pictures output, but IMO following the progress and the use of interesting techniques makes up for that.

Notes:
Their cosplay blog is a joy to follow, the only thing people seem to frequently complain about is low variety, or rather the high presence of alternate universe cosplays. I’m personally of the opinion that this is a matter of personal taste and preference rather than something which should be taken into account regarding whether they’re worth following or not for someone interested in Homestuck Cosplay.
Please note I didn’t go through their personal blogs, seeing as all their tutorials et cetera are found on Cowbuttcruncheis and their personal blogs aren’t very well organized.

Okay, last one for now.

To start a conversation, what is everyone's favourite homestuck cosplay(s) that you have done yourself? Any HS cosplays being worked on atm?

I really enjoy being Meenah, Roxy and Terezi, i'm working on Dead Aradia, and remaking Meenah accessories

Shit, I like this. My main nitpick is that the splatters on her shirt aren't explosive enough and seem more like random daubs of paint, but gore makeup is weird to apply without experience. The photography and editing are great on this (excepting the blurry edge on the lopped-off arm). Wig and horns also look really good.

I'm having a lot of fun being Cronus. I feel attractive and I enjoy having the mindset of "I deserve the love of everyone" every once in a while. Also, good excuse for shameless flirting haha.

Kanaya is also nice, mostly because she gives me an opportunity to be feminine every once in a while.

I can't believe how much the HS community varies from place to place. Where I live, you basically can't do Cronus, like at all. And you can only do Mindfang with permission. And either one with any kind of "deserve" or flirting would probably get you physically attacked.

Is it an active ban or is it just a community consensus?

>> No.7993896

>>7993865
If you're gonna ban all them you might as well ban Vriska. Just for starters, she's not a "safe" character to cosplay since she invites aggressive flirting and can also provide a cover to be aggressive under the excuse of being in-character. She's acted non-consensually in the comic and it's inevitable people will try to replicate that, not to mention some of her outfits are revealing and promote low self esteem-driven attempts to look hot.

As soon as troll symbols were introduced and associated with their caste system and blood type it became a thing to treat cross-hemotype cosplay as at least mildly appropriative. It's been a thing on Tumblr and to different degrees all over the place. With the introduction of Calliope's and then Jade's trollsona, it got sort of renergized. Since, in the setting, a trollsona is easily something compareable to blackface.

It's consensus. When the list was first started two years ago or so it was actually really easy to fill out. Well known cosplayers who produce good work don't leave much to argue about. It's demotion or removal that brings out drama.

I want to note that including their GT Sollux might have been a bit of a stretch as it wasn’t actually MADE in 2014 AFAIK.

I think little touches like that are cool if done well, but a lot of people in the Homestuck fandom probably don't have the skill in making prosthetics to pull it off. Gills are cool (pic related is a PETA ad but is nice for inspiration), but webbed fingers may be incompatible with some characters.

Notes:
If you like anime cosplay too they are definitely worth following. They answer cosplay questions but it took me a moment to find the right tag (hint, it’s not in their general cosplay tag). I can’t find anything new they’ve planned, but their cosplay quality is high. I think we should keep an eye on them and if they show no interest in new Homestuck cosplay in the next few months I say it might be time to remove them.

They have reblogged older photosets, and are one of the reasons as to why I think a “honourary mention” category could be useful. I wouldn’t say their presence is very relevant on the list anymore. Def. worth following if you’re into anime cosplay, though.

A lot of the complaints were about their big amount of Humanstuck cosplays, and I stand by my statement that they still do it much better than most. Still has a high shot output and a lot of fun and interesting gifs (something I’d love to see more of among cosplayers in general, making usage of tumblr’s photoset function) and in that sense and with the cosplays they put together they’re pretty creative. I would love to see some proper shots of their Eridan and Cronus, though.

Cosplays with CBC&;Co so if you’ve seen them before that’s why. They’ve a nice feeling for cosplay composition (looking at their Aradiasprite). They post wips and as far as I’m concerned they’re on the level where they belong on the list.

i need help. i cannot shade and highlight without looking ridiculous and dirty. i have a round face, and when i try to contour, it doesnt look natural. and if i add too much it looks dirty. any tips about contouring for round cheeky faces? also any brushes that someone can recommend?

>> No.8001831

Some Qs:

Contouring for kids or for gray?
If not gray, what's your natural complexion look like?
What kind of makeup are you using under the contouring?
What are you using to contour? (Powder? What kind?)
What brushes are you using?
Are you blending well?
How much makeup are you applying and where?

Pics would be helpful, anon. If you're asking for help you're not going to get shit on too badly.

its for gray.
i use ben nye under.
i use this opaque eye shadow pallete and use the dark grey colors, cant remember the brand lol.
i used several brushes... tbh im pretty sure they werent for contouring. ive used a kabuki brush, and this other smaller brush.
i try to blend as much as i can.
i just rub the brush on some of the powder, blow on it gently, and shade the eyes, jawline, and the temples, im really only having trouble with my cheeks.
i dont have any pictures of me at the moment.
(also thanks anon)

>> No.8001876

Might be from the eyeshadow, sometimes the pigments in those are mixed and can look splotty when you're trying to get a sheer coverage out of it

Cheeks need a lot less powder than you'd think they do. If your face is really round, try experimenting with how far towards the center of your face the dark part comes.

Kabukis are for blending and large application, aren't they? try a blush brush.

One thing that helps me find where to contour for my cheekbones is to suck my cheeks in and make a fishy face. Apply shadow in the depression going from your ear to the corner of your mouth, or a little bit higher if you want a stronger illusion of cheekbones.

Also, are you contouring for a male or female character? If it's for a girl, you can draw attention away from the contouring on your cheeks by having dramatic eye makeup.

>> No.8002134

>>8002015

To go off of what this anon >>8002066 said/ the image they posted, have you tried using a darker cream shade as a contour? It may be easier to blend and look more natural than powder.

i was actually the one who unintentionally started that drama mentioned up thread if we're thinking of the same situation.

all i had had said was that i didn't get why she was being posted every thread because she's pretty mediocre. someone (possibly her) replied that her work is clean and she adds so many unique touches. i'd pointed out she adds the same touches most roxys add (i actually found less sticking to canon while googling), and her faq lists where to buy every piece of it, and another anon pointed out her wig is barely styled.

that's when she freaked out on tumblr. as far as i know she was never "ripped to shred", another anon and i had pointed out she's very average and not worth reposting every single thread. someone might have suggested that it was selfpost, but i don't remember for sure.

They've a lot of good cosplays in the past, but the last cosplay in their tag they actually made would be Diamonds Droog. There's a Derse Dreamer Equius from november, but that was from an old shoot.

Different anon but I don't think it matters that we get non-American on the list just because. She's out of place there compared to everyone else already tiered. Frankly, so is that mitsuki chick.

Striderian has always been meh to me but at least they have better variety and better construction. Caledbuttscratch I'm not sold on. Their Aradia is cute but their Dave is really not; they don't stand out imo beyond the fact that they hang out with CBC.

I think everyone except maybe neokalugova compares to other pretty tiers like kitty-maru or fromglibo. It doesn't make sense to hold everyone to a higher standard, otherwise we'll keep running into the same problem we've had all year where old people aren't removed and new people aren't added.

If we want to make special exceptions and add a few people with one hit wonder showstoppers that's one thing but the whole point of crunchy'a review is to find new, good cosplayers.

I put a vote in for Striderian. Maybe that wasn't clear by the way I phrased it.

If we're going to include lower quality cosplayers on pretty tier, then we should bump up other pretty tiers into mid tier to make room.

That's what we're trying to make, for the time there is no most recent version of the list. Everyone on it is in this thread anyway.

As for Caledbuttscratch and similar:
It seems like a lot of anons has incredibly high expectations. We can't hold everyone to the same standards as we do tiernames which has been on the list for long and we all already know, nor can we compare potential pretty tiers to people on mid tier.
Have another shot of Caledbuttscratch.

I would say that Crowmunist could very well be bumped to mid tier. As for "making room"... The list doesn't exactly have finite spots. It's literally a list of suggestions of Homestuck Cosplayers to follow.

I didn't mean "making room" in the literal sense so much as keeping tiers grouped with like peers so to speak. If pretty becomes a more introductory category, then we should bump the more established cosplayers already on pretty tier up to the next level. SS should be promoted no question. I could support crowmunist being promoted too. If kitty-maru has future HS cosplay plans I'd bump them as well. Since cancerously made it there's no reason to keep them off.

I guess I thought we had a lot more pretty tiers than we do. I didn't realize how many names had dwindled off. It's hard to mentally separate from the glory days of old but beggars can't be choosers. Might as well add everyone.

Like I said, I would not put Cancerously on mid tier today. The cosplay quality of the fandom has increased, the standards are higher.

As for Kisbe and Dei-Sandvich, it has previously been a matter of lack of tutorials. I do think thir craftmanship warrant a position on God Tier, but I'm afraid they're not the types to stick in the same fandom for very long and am worried that they might not cosplay Homestuck for much longer. Of course, that alone isn't a very good reason to hold them back, but that is my personal bias and thus I haven't really said anything about them.
