  1. Homestuck Cosplay Masterpost
  2. A pastebin full of tutorials and advice, used as a reference guide for many things regarding Homestuck. Still very much in progress, could use more things for specific characters as well as more tutorials and links overall, but it will all be updated as the threads continue. Please feel free to suggest more things and also give more personal experiences.

  20. > Armsocks:
  21. + Easy to put on and off, no smudging, can look nice when made well, make once and reuse for many characters, warm for colder events
  22. - Can get wrinkled or puckered in photos, initial timesink to make and fit, can get dirty and stained, will not work with some characters due to neckline

  26.  
  27. > PAX:
  28. + Waterproof, Smudgeproof, will not come off so easily, mixable to a perfect match with other makeup, lasts several days
  29. - Expensive, hard to apply to yourself, hard to remove quickly or completely, can apparently cause cancer if you use a cheap enough acryllic to mix it with?

  33.  
  34. > Ben Nye:
  35. + Requires no additional makeup purchase, quick and easy to apply and remove, relatively inexpensive
  36. - Hard to get completely seal, can still rub off even after sealed, has to be mixed for standard Troll grey, not cost effective for large amounts of bare skin
