Guro Kawaii/Yami Kawaii is a fashion style using guro and horror themes. Menhera is inspired by the manga of the same name.

Oh I should of been clearer in my wording, I know they are oral syringes but are the filled up with resin or uv resin? I am curious since I can get supplies to make these easily but I know some plastics can be eaten away when using resin and don't want to invest into something that will just make a huge mess to clean up.

Also what are some motifs that would be good to hang from them? I have some in various colors - they used to be pens but I've taken the ink out and was planning on filling the tip with glue and then inserting a metal eyehook with some charms hanging from it.
So far all I can think of is droplets that match the color of the fluid inside them.
I like the little stars, though. Maybe hearts or something?

I think you can use lots of diff things. I've seen some use glitter glue/paint. Using beads would be a non messy way of doing it too.

As what you can hang on the end: charms, beads, bows, etc. I'm trying to find pill shaped charms or cross shaped beads.

I just got the crazy idea of using clear silicon (like the one people use for glitter whip decoden) and use that to fill up the syringes with glitter, beads, etc. but the only problem would be which will be more durable, craft friendly, and cheaper for making these charms.

Also what kind of fabric paint is best to use for jackets and not wash out?

I'm absolutely in love with pic related, but I'm not sure how I'd get my hands on one. I know it's made by Yummy! but no luck finding it on their web shop. I don't want to be a jerk and ask them if they'll ever make any more, and they probably don't speak English, anyways. I'm contemplating asking an in-shop SS to check Listen Flavor on the off-chance they might have some left. What do you guys think?

If you're using resin then UV would be better. The beads/glitter would be suspended when it's cured instead of sinking to the bottom, which is more likely to happen when you leave the piece to cure for hours.
As for the things on the end, put a dab of resin/glue in the hole and stick in an eye screw. It's easier to attach the charms after the screw's been put in.

The text is really hard to read in that space even though she's transparent. Too much of her body is taking up the bulk of the letters which means you need to take your focus off the art to look underneath her.
Also with what the other anon was saying, you can see a lot of gaps in your lines so making sure you keep things solid will help it to look sharper.

I have a weird story with this fashion.

I love Fairy kei a lot, and I'm building my first fairy kei coord. When I heard about menhera, I felt it's just like my beloved fairy kei style with gross things.
Like a month, my mom was diagnosed with cancer (a little one, but holy fuck). She was operated, but in one month she needs other operation, and after, chemotherapy. My mother is really important to me, and seeing so weak and sad makes me feel really depressed, useless and like a shit.

So, Menhera just catch my attention a lot. I just I feel the cutie pain Menhera wants to transmit. I can't stop drawing menhera now.

Not that anon, but it sounds like it was a coincidence of timing: getting into fairy kei, discover fairy kei + morbidity, then something morbid and scary with someone you care deeply about. She's probably still interested in, thinking about, and participating in the fashion while having her mom at the back of her mind. You've never found that things you have problems with or are concerned about tend to make links to things you do in your everyday life, even if they're not necessarily directly correlated?

Nor does Yamikawaii feature guro or horror, it's only "sickly cute" aka the sick/yandere aesthetics in general. OP is obviously a newfag to the fashion.

"Upon seeing the term “yamikawaii”, you may be thinking things like, “What does the whole “yami” (sick) part mean?!?!? Do they have a terminal disease? Are they physically weak? What kind of idols would turn being ill into a concept? WTF Japan?” The “sickness” refers to how “yamikawaii” girls might be cute but have kind of obscure or uncool and geeky interests, are very insecure about themselves and prone to negative thoughts. Similar to the eyepatch and bandage trend from a few years ago, the appeal is in how the girls appear to be weak and in need of care and protection. In the case of a “yamikawaii” girl, her bandages are internal. A “yamikawaii” girl is kind of like Rei Ayanami from Evangelion in some aspects."

I already have one with Menhera-chan and those colourful ones people found from pixiv (??) from the last thread, but I'd like more!
All I can find googling are Menhera-chan "stickers" from Line or shitty tumblr art that has no clue what this is all about.

Pic related, one other picture I have.

Would it be tacky to show of your self harm cuts in this fashion? Like new ones and not scars? My medication makes me really prone to self harm and I'm curious if you gulls think it would be best to hide them (maybe use bandage, that way it would still be kinda fitting) or maybe take the chance and flash them a bit
I'm obviously not gonna cut for the reason of showing them of, but sometimes I can't help but cut and it could be fun if the cuts could be like a fun accessory instead of just shameful (not saying cutting is shameful because it's not, I'm just saying that I can easily feel shame over my cuts and scars)

Haha I kinda suspected that kind of reaction, but since the style is kinda about that stuff I just wanted to ask anyways
The reason I'm on medication is because of severe depression. Some antidepressants are known to make you even more depressed or even make you self harm
I've tried about 4 different meds or so, and each switch takes about 3 months to fully complete since I'm really sensitive to these kinds of medications and need to introduce them very slowly. All the ones I've tried so far have done worse things for me, made me feel nothing etc. Without meds I get super suicidal from time to time, and it gets worse each time. Even if I don't actually kill myself, anyone who's been suicidal knows how much that sucks
When I self harm I feel suicidal too, but not close to as bad. I don't cut to the point where I'm actually in danger either.
At the moment, things are going really good for me, after like 5 years of staying home, I'm being able to study and have a job at the side. So I can't afford switching meds on the slight chance that all the good things meds give me will stay, and all the bad things will go away
I've kinda accepted it as it is.
Sorry for the long off topic ramble, and sorry for sounding stupid and tacky. I just wanted to know what you gulls thought. Thanks for your input! I'll go with bandages instead

Thanks everyone for the response! General consensus points to erasing all text. I'm also going to change the dark line work on the middle one. Thanks for the feedback! I'll definitely research about quality with apparel since I've never had custom print work done. I'll remember to reflect that in the prices. Something I have to think more on is pricing. I'm not sure how popular this stuff will be so I will be buying smaller batches which means bulk prices are a little more $. I had in mind $18 for the thigh highs, $22 for tights, $25 for tops. I'm not sure about doing sweat shirts though bc pricing on most websites for them is much higher especially bc the art is so colorful. I don't want to have to charge $50 just to barely make a profit. I know a lot of us are poorfags. If anyone has recommendations for sweatshirt printing websites please send them my way.

Here's two tights designs and a shirt because anons mentioned the shibari art. Also anon >>8900274
mentioned pre-orders. I know that could help make the price low. Idk how you gulls feel about pre-orders though? Was thinking about if that's something you guys were interested in? I know that it takes a little longer wait, so I would include a free one of a kind drawing with every order as a thank you gift.

I'll add an outline to make her more defined on the shirt. I'm open for more suggestions! Since I only made 2 tights designs, I was going to make each come in 2 different colorways. I also can offer 2 sizes for tights. s/m is 100-150lbs and m/l 150-200 lbs. Thigh high socks only come in one size though. To anon asking about art, I don't draw guys.

When they are made, they will be avaiable on http://tomybear.taobao.com/ , Qun.to used to be their exclusive reseller in Japan but they closed their onlinestore due to being overhelmed.

Your art is so cute and I love you!
Just my two cents: As much as we love hoverloli, I think a version with legs (bandage thigh highs? syringe garter?) might be cute. I will give u 1 non-vital organ for this print on the back of a black zip up hoodie!

Of course you don't want to couse eye cancer with wearing billion random colors that don't go with each other. Jfashion in general seems to focus on "easy on the eyes" these days compared to the good old decora days of the early 00s.

It's not that all that weird, anon. Many art movements like Baroque were at least inspired by the great suffering of the given time period they were in (The 30 Years' War plus famine and disease reduced the populations of the German states between 25 and 40 percent). If you're witnessing a close family member suffer from a life-threatening condition, it's only natural that you will be drawn to art that relates to your experiences.

I've really fell in love with Menhera and want to start drawing more of it, but I feel like i don't have the full aesthetic down yet

>> No.8907639

>>8903444
is this your art, anon? if you don't mind me giving some criticism, here's a couple things you could work on:
the pose is a little bit awkward, maybe you could experiment around a bit with a couple different poses before settling on a final one?
her head looks a bit squished, too. i think her eyes are kind of overwhelming the rest of the head
you've got the aesthetic, though! i like the coloring, there's just a few stylistic things that could be changed

>> No.8907857

>>8903444
Her legs are too short and her ankle and feet need a lot of work. Her forearms are also too short and wonky, and the right hand is really puffy- the fingers need to curl more and there needs to be a gap between her thumb and palm. Also, her hair needs to be more in proportion to her head, it looks strangely compressed. These are some pretty common mistakes and they don't take that long to fix- try drawing the figure without clothes to get the shape/pose right, then add them in when it looks good.
I really like the eyes though, and the missing teeth. The colours are good and you have the right aesthetic, don't worry! The shading is also impressive, especially since it looks like it isn't digital. Her curls are really nice, too.
I'd like to see more of your work, anon.
