We've had a busy weekend of patterning, dying and painting fabric but Fruit Maids are getting there! We'll be making an apron tutorial... When I have some time off work ššš #powercellcosplay #sailormooncosplay #cosplaywip #fruitmaids #cosplay #OzComicCon
Angelus acrylic paint is sooo good for colouring cosplay shoes. This test was after wearing all day at the con after painting the night before šI am so impressed with this paint I'm not going to be using anything else for the foreseeable future. #angeluspaint #powercellcosplay #cosplaywip
Did you know we've written full build notes for our Steven Universe costumes? Here's a preview of some of the work that went in creating Garnet. I still want to fix up a few things I'm not totally happy with but I'm stoked with the overall silhouette! Build notes can be found here https://powercellcosplay.wordpress.com/2017/05/01/steven-universe-build-notes/ Many thanks to @carcali_cosplay for the Garnet picture š #powercellcosplay #cosplay #stevenuniverse #stevenuniversecosplay #garnet #garnetcosplay #rockmom #buildnotes #cosplaywip #foamsmith
I know that I've been posting a lot of #SailorVenus related lately but since it's now #mooniemonday I couldn't resist. Plus who doesn't love a good comparison picture? Thank you my Moon Man @enemyofsanta for the picture!! #powercellcosplay #cosplay #sailormooncosplay #sailorvenuscosplay #princessvenus #princessvenuscosplay #australiancosplay #madfest #mohashtagsmolikes
Waaaaahhhh I am in love with this shot by @steamkittens of my Sailor Venus! š Be sure to check out his page for more amazing photography. Sailor Venus cosplay and props made and worn by yours truly. #cosplay #powercellcosplay #steamkittens #sailormoon #sailormooncosplay #sailorvenus #sailorvenuscosplay
Experiments in #worbla No. 2 Here's a redo of Sailor Moon's brooch using the same materials but the second attempt came out much less biscuit like š Comparison pictures like this show me a huge difference in my work when I do things to a schedule rather than the night before. The biscuit brooch took about 20ish minutes to make while the one on the right took a little extra time smoothing down the foam base and adding many coats of gesso plus sanding buuuuuuuuut it's so much nicer ššš #powercellcosplay #sailormoon #cosplaywip #props #sailormoonbrooch
She's geared up and ready to punish evil. A massive thank you for the amazing picture by Boss Studios (https://m.facebook.com/ben.bartlett.129/albums/10155040072871352/)! Sailor Moon's fuku and accessories were made from scratch mostly using Sparkle Pipsi's tutorial as a guide (http://sparklepipsi.deviantart.com/art/Sailor-Fuku-Cosplay-Tutorial-331557052). We used worbla primed with gesso for the tiara and brooch, glass cabochons painted with nail polish for jewels and clear painted Christmas baubles for the dango accessories. Full build notes coming in the next few weeks! #powercellcosplay #cosplay #sailormoon #sailormooncosplay #sailorman

Isn't this picture from https://m.facebook.com/Photogruzzi/ fantastic!?!

I'm inexperienced with body paint in general, so why exactly shouldn't someone use PAX? I mean, I've heard (from the internet) it was a good choice....??
The internet is lying to you, itās an awful choice.Ā
Iām going to play a card here which is going to make me sound like an asshole, but Iām going to do it anyways, because it does give me a little more authority on this than most people who will tell you to use it: Iām a professional makeup artist. The thought of using PAX on an actorās skin is horrifying to me and can get you fired. We use PAX in makeup to paint on top of latex prosthetics; it never touches skin.Ā
PAX is acrylic paint + Pros Aide. Pros Aide is a skin safe adhesive used in fx makeup; itās generally used to adhere prosthetics to skin. That said though, itās not great to use over large areas of skin because itās thick, very sticky, and not very breathable. You need a proper makeup remover like Telesis or Bond Off to really remove it and it can tear skin and hair if you remove it improperly. So even though itās safe and commonly used, you can still mess up with Pros Aide if you donāt know what youāre doing. The acrylic paint part of it is worse. Because acrylic paint isnāt tested on skin, isnāt meant for skin, is designed to be permanent, and isnāt regulated like makeup so it can have any number of gross ingredients and chemicals in it that you donāt want to put on your body. Acrylic paint is for armor, not your face. The mix of these two products then is incredibly stupid, because youāre putting something not meant for skin onto your face and it will not come off. Youāre rending craft store paint to your face with glue. It can take days to scrub it off of you. I once had a friend who I love dearly use PAX on my hands for a makeup project, and while I still love her dearly, I havenāt forgiven her for it because I had black colored and bloody raw hands for a week.Ā
People turn to it because it seems like a quick and easy way to do lasting body paint, but itās such an incredibly bad idea because they donāt know how to use it and donāt know how to remove it. The unfortunate answer to the body painting dilemma is that there is no quick, easy, long lasting way to do it. When actors are body painted for films, it generally takes 4+ makeup artists several hours to cover them and even then itās constantly being touched up every 10 minutes. The answer to body painting is a creme or water based body paint + time + sealing well + frequent touch ups. Kryolan, Mehron, and Ben Nye all make very good body paints that are safe and much better options than picking acrylic paint out of your pores for a week.Ā
This is SO important!!! Earlier on there was a post recommending to use PAX but it isnāt good either. Thank you so much @arkadycosplay for the info!!
