Pretty sure the inverted pockets are part of the fantroll design, yeah

Wig isn't entirely terrible, good place to start. Shirt is really frumpy and awkward, but again, the idea is there.

Mermaid skirt Kanaya doesn't appeal to me at all, and generally doesn't look very good. Also seems really derivative of Actualsharbois Kanaya skirt.

If you can't do the original version, and your humanstuck thus isn't just a lazy Sunday cosplay, you really ought to put some effort into making it a complete and cohesive humanstuck design on it's own. Maybe don't go for the all white look, but make it look like a complete cosplay on it's own.

Completely unrelated but I see this discussion pop up in Lolita threads every so often... graveyards used to be much more chill to hang out at, like, our relationship to death and the dead is sooo much more awkward today than it used to be. Like, mourning wear or the fact that the victorians had picnics at graveyards etc.

I don't think it's inherently bad; here we have a holiday in november celebrating the dead, and when I went it was a huge mass of people at the local cementary. Plenty of children, playing and chatting and whatnot. As long as you can be reapectful towards the monuments and the other people present, it's fine.

If we're talking cosplayers with big followings, I'm very curious on your opinions on Princelyblood. I think they've a nice balance on the ~super pretty~ make up and the more legit end of the spectrum most of the time, and their cosplays look mostly well made though they do fall a bit on lazing out on some things, but the visual impact is pretty dang good. I dunno, man, I see them all over my feed. I just wish they had good photos.

these are kinda of just weird and bad. why did that tavros think that wig was a good idea. the makeup on Equius is unsettling- looks like the Huns in Mulan, desu. Karkats horns are pointy? And there is loads more things wrong/weird about this au cosplay but i don't even want to really dig deeper.

>>9417941
These are. Alright. everyone needs improvement but they could be worse. jadesprite's wig is nice, but her fake fur is shitty quality and wtf is the lazy wrap on her hands. davesprite's wig is nice and wings acceptable, but red shirt? Feather boa neck fluff and unpainted hands? Davepetta is the best of the three of them but that wig needs a brushing, they're lacking wings, and that sleeve looks messy.

>>9417942
This looks AMAZING. The horns are great and detailed, and all the work on the outfit is very impressive. makeup looks good too. Only complaint is the weapon isn't very smooth.

>>9417944
Is this supposed to be a fem tavrissprite? It looks nice and all, but its very heavy on the FEM part, and thus, very inaccurate. Not sure why they thought the corset was a good idea, or the girly puff sleeves, which don't even fit vriska's character at all anyway?

Yeah I agree. I'm getting very tired of them when so much of their cosplay is 'almost but not quite' for quality. The fins are nice, eyebrows are nice, and gray looks smooth. But lipstick on a male troll, girly eye makeup, yarn horns (granted, better than most. but still yarn.), and that wig! the purple piece looks like she just stuck it on her forehead and didn't even bother shaping it to smoothly go with the rest of the hairline. She put effort into styling the back of the wig, but the front hairline is just garbage.
She's not an awful cosplayer, but seeing the 6 of same picture with slight variations, combined with all of the above, really isn't doing her any favors here.

The sides of the wig also look really stringy like she put in way too much hairspray or something, the wig in general just looks like a mess. And I really think she should ditch the fake teeth. She has a very small mouth and the teeth look really bad on her. Pic related is older so she's gotten better about it but I still really think she should drop them entirely. Also maybe just a pet peeve of mine but I hate when people do the slightly open mouth thing.

I really like her cosplays but some of the stuff she does just has me scratching my head sometimes.

>> No.9424323

>>9424308

Also speaking of fake teeth, do you guys know of any good examples of the fake fingernail kind of teeth? I'm not really a fan of tooth black or the gremlin teeth or whatever and it's not really feasible to do an entire upper row of sharp teeth with scarecrow fangs. It's hard to find people who have made it look natural so if any of you guys have good examples I'd love to see them.

>> No.9424520

>>9424323
Thing is that unless you're really lucky the way you smile and the shape of your mouth is going to make it look super awkward, because your teeth are going to be way too long. Or, if you use tooth black, far too short and making your bottom row disappear. The best I've seen is wonderflex + just a short point. So not really a V-shaped tooth but just the tiniest enlongation.

It also makes no sense. If lips and cheeks and nose etc etc were all bright as hell blood color, Karkat would have never been able to keep his shit under wraps. The only exception is a tiny bit of blush if they're actually blushing, or blood-matched lipstick, since those both happen in the comic.

Adding onto previous anons, now when I meet fellow Homestuck cosplayers at cons or meetups and start to get to know them, it turns out they've never actually read the comic. Only listened to "let's read"s and gone off of fanon. It gives me a specific kind of sad feel that I can't put my finger on.

We had a new 12 year old come to their first meet last month who was totally up to date and in a Dave cosplay.
The 'let's read homestuck' videos seem to get a lot of the younger crowd past the first 2 acts, where honestly a lot of the references might be too old for them.

More than a handful of young homestuck's have told me they moved to the actual comic after watching up to act 3, read until they were up to date, then went back and read the first two acts when they had things to look for and keep them interested.
For some people, just reading isn't as engaging as an audiobook or something with voiceacting. I can't really fault them for it? If they like it, they like it and i'm glad to have them cosplaying. I don't think your average decent cosplayer would be 'a casual fan'. No one paints themselves gray casually lmfao

Couldn't find them, but if anyone else does then just run them through dinsta?

Anyway, I found this, with this commentary:
>Remember when I spent 4 years of my life cosplaying this gay garbage baby? No? Good. My efforts to erase my shameful past have been successful. Until now, I guess. Rest in peace, Homestuck, you dirty, dirty trashcan.

I recognize that this self berating is really trendy, but I can't be the only one who can't stand it. Especially coming from ex-fans, it just seems really vile. I see non-stucks do this too, but not NEARLY to the same extent as Homestucks do. Of course, this has to do with HS being a hated fandom and this being a way of deflecting criticism, but it still gets under my skin.

The trickster group was a throwback, I'm afraid. As for social spheres... I do see your point, but it seems to me like there are always new fans coming in, even if it's at a slower pace than it was a few years ago. Talk to international fans, maybe? If you're dedicated enough to hang in these threads you shouldn't have a problem finding other stucks to talk to outside of your local community.

So MTCC (formerly known as MTAC) is usually a pretty small turn out, since only recently it's been made into an actual convention. When I first started going it was 20$ for a weekend pass and it was a hallway in the basement of the convention center.
Somehow this year we ended up with way more people than I was expecting. While we have 440 members on the facebook group, the usual crowd is about 30 regulars only about 25 of them in cosplay. Sushi lunch was roughly the same turnout as last year, but the photoshoot had a handful of new people showing up, some of them in full gray paint, and a whole bunch of people who weren't even cosplaying homestuck coming to hang out.
The Dave on the right, closest to the front, was new, and 12 or 13 if i remember right? The Calliope's were also new and young!

Our photoshoot location at this convention center is always the same spot, tucked between the north and south building under a bunch of escalators. Next to this spot theres a large area that used to be the dealers room at FanExpo each year, but was being used MTCC weekend for some sort of event that we'd all been curious about.
That event turned out to be an expo that included a Pitbull concert lmfao so we had to delay our 4:13 photoshoot a little because you couldn't hear anything due to Pitbull playing directly beside us.

A couple of the best received cosplays that weekend were the wedding Kanaya (she's super tall and was upset she couldn't gray that weekend due to an allergic reaction she'd had to some primer a couple days before. poor girl didn't want to make it worse), and Guy Fieri, who had two pairs of tongs with them.

Our 413 meet was a little small yesterday, likely due to the weather being really chilly in comparison to the last few weeks. I wasn't the only idiot who braved it in shorts though!
We had our usual potluck lunch- these kids are so good at bringing food, everyone took home leftovers. 3 new people came and said they had a wonderful time. So, cold, but not a waste at least.

Our next event isn't until Anime North at the end of May, which is our biggest turnout every year because it's Canada's largest convention. Really hoping it's not as hot this year, but they're already giving warnings about the heat for next month.
It's looking like it'll be the first time in 7 years that we've not had a AN Sunday Photoshoot- though there's still time for that to change I guess.

I can bet there will be due to Hiveswap. Given how long awaited the game has been and the amount of hype, I'm assuming there'll be a boom. Retired Homestucks might come back momentarily to enjoy the game, and new Homestucks will probably join. All I'm hoping for is that it won't get as bad as some of these other video game fandoms.

Yaexrae: Last I heard, real life stuff was taking presidence

Vintage-Aerith: Also still into cosplay but they're usually video games, especially square enix. Collaborated with Behind infinity on some FFXV photos.

Murtunacaptor: Moved on to series like Hero Academia and Haikyuu. Posts a lot of wig commissions and just got a sponsorship with Fivewits wigs

Alyssaties: focuses on artwork more now. Cosplayed from love live and YOI recently.

Vantasticmess: cosplays mostly older series but did Shiro from Voltron recently.

Cancerously and seerofsarcasm: Still roommates, still love scourge sisters but like a lot of others, have moved on to other things. Got featured by Kotaku last year.

Thevvioletprince: Has lived in Korea for the past few years.

Harshwhimsical: Cosplays other things now and then, seems to still like Makaras.

Lindzar: from what I can tell, they have stopped cosplaying.

Gemiblu: cosplays a lot other things but now and again a Dave picture springs up. Still curious what exactly got him on the shittier list.

Rikala: cosplays other things, was in a few Katsucon videos this year

Rikala still posts old homestuck on her instagram, and has changed usernames as of a while back. She's a guest at a couple cons now and has improved a lot from her days of basically only cosplaying Mindfang. Personality looks like it's lightened up as well- appearently getting away from Durrscurr was good for her.

might be able to answer the Gemiblu question though. I know there was personal drama in the florida scene way back, but also he was on an 'ask the roboyfriends' blog with a boyfriend/roommate and the situation went south real fast. And rather publicly.

Which leads me to wondering what the fuck happened to ChocoboStrider? the crazy kid that attacked their s.o. and threw some huge fit on tumblr about going to jail or something? I definitely remember that being joked about on here a few years ago.

14k is quite an achievement, but IG very much is not a community centered around craftmanship. The sooner you realize that IG popularity has very little to do with quality of craftmanship, the sooner you can move past bitterness and jealousy.

I'd say that pretty much anyone can get up to 3k, more than that you need to dedicate a non-neglectable amount of time to follower interaction and producing content. I definitely think 10k+ takes some effort, but it has far less to do with craftmanship and is more influenced by half a dozen other factors. Mostly it's about being pretty and vaguely interesting.

She's fine, lost a lot of weight and seems a lot happier these days. Not everyone can or wants to stay cosplaying forever.

Galaxeys hasn't done Homestuck for years. Shes got a mostly normie life now.

>>9476998
I'm glad she is still around.

While I'm here, anyone wanna talk about Casil McArthur? Goes by dreads_of_a_mink on Instagram and is being called "the first trans male supermodel"? I'm surprised nobody's brought it up on cgl before, but he's an ex-Homestuck whose photos we've all seen before. Pic related.

Probably because his cosplays aren't anything special (just another mediocre Strider). I've never heard of this person before, nor is he the first trans supermodel.

Just because you haven't heard of someone doesn't mean they aren't gaining plenty of success and attention lol. The world doesn't revolve around you.
Name another trans male supermodel if he's not the first? I've never heard of any.

I'm honestly just thrilled about ex-Homestucks appearing in media, lmao. Imagine in a decade-ish when we have a whole crop of media creators with a past in Homestuck fan-media. It's the best kind of secret club.

Maybe stop using a Speak and Spell as a laptop and try using an actual computer.

Amazing how if you Google "trans male supermodel", the first 30 results aren't talking about Cassette Mcwhoeverthefuck. I see Laith de la Cruz, Ben Melzer, Aydian Dowling. In fact it takes 4 pages to find the single article from a single website that proclaims him "the first trans male supermodel".

Holy salt, batman. You literally said you were surprised this person wasn't posted here before, and your answer is because they won't get posted if their cosplays aren't good. It has nothing to do with their omgspeshul status as a trans model.

You must be using Bing.
