christmas bunny levi for bullet echo art challenge

[anthyssa]

aaaand the results i asked my friends to give me characters that require a lot of makeup/facepaint THIS is what i got dont ask me, i myself have no idea how did i do that

[anthyssa]

this was supposed to be twilight sparkle (my little pony) equestria girls version for #sixcostest as you can see i didnt have literally anything for this cosplay, so replace color tool was overused this time i dont even have purple facepaint, had to use pink instead

[anthyssa]

uploading more stuff i did for #sixcostest

[anthyssa]

stuff i forgot to post, these were for sixcostest also was trying to recreate trixie and biqtch makeup styles

[anthyssa]

also been cosplaying a lot of drag recently

[anthyssa]

idk, i dont want to post it on insta bc a lot of editing and ugly wig (this was for six costest challenge where your friends suggest a character for you and i dont have a suitable wig for this cosplay at home rn) but i kinda like how my makeup turned out and how in character this picture is sooooo let it be at least here

[anthyssa]

im back do yall remember me

[anthyssa]

hey guys guess who's back

(not really but anyways)

been at a local cosplay con recently in a very closet kanaya

so here you can see me without any digital photo edits

also it's kinda sad to be the lone homestuck, i was the only one cosplaying a troll at the 1st day, went off cosplay the 2nd day and met only like 2 or 3 more trolls

i really need a little company of horned creatures

the good thing is that a lot of ppl took pics with me and said i look great, really made me want to start my cosplay activities again

[anthyssa]

two best trolls ever

[anthyssa]

hey there, sorry to bother, but i was wondering where you got you ears for your various troll cosplays. they look really good and i want to see if i can get my hands on a pair. (also could you maybe answer privately, i'd appreciate it c:)

in your DMs! it's not really a secret tho :)

[anthyssa]

I don't suppose you heard of Malal? How do you think that would look like for a cosplay?

huh? i think i mentioned somewhere in my wh40k posts that originally i wanted to do Malal too but i dint know much about them so i decided not to. sorry to disappoint you anon.

also i've been getting a lot of DMs lately about my cosplays, so i think a little FAQ will help! Q: Where do you get your wigs? A: all wigs i own are cheap low quality crap from aliexpress :) also i have some clip-on extensions and fake bangs, so sometimes i make customizations Q: Where do you get your elf ears? A: i ordered these in our local sfx workshop but they dont ship international, sorry Q: Where do you get your troll horns? A: i made all these myself! here you can find some of my tutorials and in-process pics: my tutorials tag Q: What makeup do you use? A: i use grease based facepaints from a local party store and a cheap aliexpress 120 colours eyeshadows palette :) my gray paint is a custom mix of clown white and some black pigment. everything else like liners and mascaras are drugstore/sephora Q: How are you so good at makeup? A: im not! i still have a looong way to go. but i think the key to getting better at makeup is 1) youtube tutorials 2) a lot of practice! Q: What contacts do you use? A: i own black scleras and whiteout mesh contacts. everything else like red or yellow eyes is just edited these are the most popular ones, but if you have a question that's not listed here - feel free to slide into my asks/dms!

bringing back the OG because Aradia is the best troll and i was born to cosplay her! did you know that dead Aradia was my first and only full HS cosplay ever? i feel very dead and upset and sick rn so i wanted to do her dead version again today but i always wanted to do her godtier talksprite version too so this was a nice way to cheer up and remind myself that IM FKN IMMORTAL but i still dont have any costumes so i found my ol' good houston rockets hoodie (about time, its freezing here) and no, im not from houston, i actually never even been in US, im just an old ass basketball fan

[anthyssa]

omg thank you guys for 100 followers! its unbelievable! i had like 6 people only 2 months ago before i started doing troll call cosplays thank you all so much for your appreciation, likes and reblogs and dms and everything! i will be back soon with some celebrate content! also while yall here, please add me on instagram https://www.instagram.com/metaphora_madness/ it would be so kind of you to help me gain some attention there too

i wish someone loved me irl at least a little bit close to amount of love i give to this wig bc i just spent like 3 days detangling it (it's really long, reaches past my butt and im 5'9") my spine is probably broken rn
