forum Cosplay, anyone?

Anyways, next question I had thought of:

Why do you cosplay?

Favorite cosplay: Victor Frankenstein, because of what he means to me as a person (if you go to the "review the last book you read" chat, I go pretty in-depth). Although General Hux was also very fun!
Why do I cosplay?: It's fun and I like it. I'm the sort of person who does more casual cosplay than full-on cosplay, but I like to look cool and it's fun for me.

That's still amazing, Jyn.

Why do I cosplay?
Several reasons, some deeper than others.
1: I like makeup, I think it’s an art, but at first glance I seem somewhat tomboyish, people were surprised when I started wearing eyeliner so I just don’t often wear a full face because I don’t like the attention, except when I cosplay.
2: i like building things. I make most of my costumes myself and I plan tons more that I don’t have the means to actually make.
3: it’s a escape from reality to actually put on a costume, makeup and wig, to dress up to the point that you barely recognize yourself, and we all need a break from reality every once in a while.
And there ya have it.

I definitely feel the 3rd reason for sure

That's still amazing, Jyn.

Thank you <3

In other news: I finished mapping out the timeline of events for my idea, and also decided to call the series "Build for Mercy."

Would yall like to see the timeline? It has multiple endings and plenty of ambiguous details left for the viewer to fill in~

I want to see it~

alrighty well get ready for some reading
I also apologize beforehand if you don't know about Undertale. Which would be surprising, but still very spoiling of the game.

Built For Mercy

The series progresses like a normal Pacifist run, but with the passing knowledge of Chara haunting and attaching themself to Frisk. Only Frisk can fully see Chara. No one else is able to see Chara until Chara takes over Frisk’s body, even if it’s in small batches. Continue through, only highlighting the differences compared to the original (and reactions to Frisk asking the main Monsters about Chara). Before going through and facing Sans, Frisk gets a call from Alphys, explaining that she had a breakthrough in her experimentation to help separate Chara from Frisk by getting a stable body. Unfortunately, Alphys didn’t remain tight-lipped about this breakthrough and slips up to Undyne, who confers to Papyrus and Sans, all of whom confront Frisk, and also Chara, about why Chara shouldn’t be let loose. After these intense talks, Frisk and Chara have a fight of their own, in the aftermath of which, Frisk lets their guard down and gets sneak-attacked by an unknown assailant. The attack leaves Frisk mortally wounded (damage to the SOUL), and unable to fully RESET. Of which there are four endings:

Best Ending: Frisk and Chara both survive the transfer into their respective bodies.

• Consequences: Chara lives on as a flower-buddy with Frisk as they both continue the game fully Pacifist, and getting through the final hurdle with Chara appearing and calming down Asriel/Flowey until they’re both children again. Chara decides to stay with Asriel in the Underground, and Frisk takes up the mantle as an ambassador for Monster and Human affairs.

Worse Ending: Frisk barely survives the transfer, but is killed by Chara, deciding to “put them out of their misery” before going on a rampage through the underground with Frisk’s SOUL.

• Consequences: Chara demolishes the population of the Underground until they reach Asriel/Flowey, and is then stuck forever battling the Asriel/Flowey, neither of them relenting as they both hold human souls, that is until the mountain caves in on them and traps them for all eternity.

Saddest Ending: Frisk dies right after the transfer is complete, leaving Chara to wake up next to a dead Frisk and hostile souls around them, of whom decide to imprison them for life.

• Consequences: Frisk’s SOUL is captured by their friends and preserved for Asgore so he can open the barrier, all the while Frisk says goodbye to whoever holds their SOUL and blesses Asgore’s conscious with the knowledge that Frisk doesn’t hate him or any of the monsters in the Underground. Chara lives on in prison until they die. Once they die with a whimper, they finally see Frisk again, only for a moment, before everything fades to a comforting black.

Neutral Ending: Chara opts to switch places with Frisk, using the RESET feature to heal Frisk at the expense of Chara disappearing from this timeline.

• Consequences: Frisk is torn apart inside at this sacrifice, knowing that they can’t bring Chara back now that Frisk is no longer able to RESET properly. Frisk continues to live in the Underground with their friends until they find a way to fix their RESET abilities. [possible continuation of another story or can also leave off with abiguity].

And now I have to put the scenes into script-format so I can film, act, and edit the video series with a clear idea of what I want.

I see. Nice. I wish you the best of luck with putting it into script-format.

Thanks. It should be easy since I already have the plot down, but I think it'll be the notes of film and editing that will slow me down. That, my impulsiveness while in cosplay, and my phone's data storage.

I did a makeup for an OC, what do y’all think??

Man, at first I freaked out and thought "WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR FACE" and then I realized it was makeup.

That’s exactly the reaction I was hoping for, thanks lol

Holy shit that looks amazing!! I'm honestly so impressed with how realistic it looks! What did you use? And how did you do that?

Outline the area you want with concealer, blend the inside only. I don’t know why that makes it look better but it does.
The rest is mostly just lipstick, one pinker shade and one browner shade.
Use the lighter one to make (curved) stripes over your cheekbone into football kind of thing, then do the same underneath it and above it. Fill the empty striped with the darker shade. Use eyeshadow to fill in any areas of needed and make a shadow line under your cheekbone.

Just gonna screenshot that so I can pull it up later when I make an attempt.

Thank you so much for the instructions you wonderous God/Goddess/Deity of makeup!
