This is a blog mostly for cosplay, so there will be Homestuck, (with some Hetalia, Free!, knb, and Gintama, among other things) I will try to tag everything accordingly :D

forget slow burn romance, give me slow burn found family. give me enemies to friends to siblings. tired, weary old mentors learning to live again for their plucky young apprentices. heroes sharing apartments after world saving adventures because they’re so used to living with each other. dramatic “oh shit” moments where one gets kidnapped and the other realizes “god, that’s my kid.” i want to sit and watch in agony for thirty chapters while two idiots slowly adopt each other, someone get on it

OOO you do!? Excellent! I can tell you what we do, then!We buy applebaum paint - acrylic you can get at walmart - in dolphin grey and mix it either 1:5 or 7:2 paint:alcohol. The alcohol is 72% or something around there! Make sure the paint is really well mixed, and you can test it on your skin for color but painting it on won’t give you a good indication of how it will airbrush on for coverage, so just err on the side of too much alcohol! If you do too much paint it could gunk up your airbrush and you’ll be stuck losing time cleaning it 3 It will always paint on wet, but if it hasnt’ dried after 2 or 3 minutes then you probably have too much alcohol!! It shouldn’t take more than one full coat of slow careful coverage to cover the area you need. I always do my hands/neck/arms this way \o/I HOPE THIS HELPS AND ABSOLUTELY feel free to come back if you have any more questions at all, I love being able to help and I hope you have a great time cosplaying aaaaaaaa

Hi! I'm a huge fan of all of your cosplays! And I'm sure you're probably tired of answering questions about your gamzee make-up so I'm really sorry!! I'll try to be quick and concise and you dont really have to answer it, but I am wondering if you use different make ups for at cons vs photoshoots? I've heard people suggesting this so that make-up won't crack at cons. For solid grey Im ok but I have yet to find somethin for Gamzee that won't crack! Also any advice for sealing arms? Thank you!! :)

shhflasdf s OH NO THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! You’re so sweet aaa thank you for such a considerate ask!! I’m not tired of answering questions at all, so don’t worry about it I love to help \o/!!!I personally use the same make up at conventions and for photoshoots. What I use for Gamzee is Ben Nye clown white creme and ben nye steel grey creme! I smear a crappy layer of white on my face, then blot over it with a make up sponge’s fat end to make it more opaque. Then I draw on the face and fill it in - then powder then hair spray then final seal!For arms, I don’t use ben nye, because I never found a good way to seal it!! What I use requires an air brush, so if you don’t have one I’m not sure how helpful my sealing advice will be - after applying the make up but before the powder put some lotion on your joints, this will help the make up to not flake off as much. Then powder gently and hair spray - powder again if you’re nervous!I HOPE THIS HELPS AND IF YOU HAVE ANY MORE QUESTIONS or want details or anything like that feel free to hit me up again I REALLY DONT MIND ;u;!

How did you like the HS ending?

aaa I’m flattered you’re interested!!! uuuu////I personally haven’t followed the story as intensely as I was some years ago, so I’m not sure how well-informed my opinion is but!! I agree with basically everyone when they say that it was ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL from a visual/musical standpoint!! All of the work on that is insane, and it feels really nice to see something so great come out of it all.From a writing stand point, I’m a bit disappointed if only because my favorite characters ended up not being as relevant to the story as I’d hoped they’d be. This for Gamzee isn’t incredibly surprising, even though he has about 10000x loose ends. I did think Karkat would be involved more, so that’s a bit of a let down.BUT IN GENERAL!! It’s a very nostalgic night for me and for a lot of other people too, I’m sure! Everyone getting to reflect on the happy memories and good friends they’ve made during this time is so lovely to watch, and take part in. I’m happy I got into homestuck, and I’m really happy that people on tumblr wanted to be into it with me >///u///
