Low budget, low tech Winter Soldier arm process photos. Started with a metallic silver opera-length glove from a Halloween store, taped my sections to create the panels’ lines, then colored them on woth a combination of fabric crayon & sharpie. The crayon helps give the impression of shadow & helps the sharpie stay vivid.

Paired it with a red henley, jeans, combat boots, and a fingerless black glove for a “civilian Bucky Barnes” cosplay.

I’d be astounded if I didn’t know about this gem:

Tammy and the T-Rex (1994) dir. Stewart Raffill

An evil scientist implants the brain of Michael (Paul Walker), a murdered high school student, into a Tyrannosaurus. He escapes, wreaks vengeance on his high school tormentors, and is reunited with his sweetheart Tammy (Denise Richards).

I’m way late on this one, but a fiber mascara works really well for enhancing/faking facial hair. Put on a coat of the colored part to act as glue, then add the fibers immediately. Let that dry for about five mins, then add more color. Keep repeating with fibers, then color if you want. Just look at it between layers/coats to be sure it’s looking right.

I helped with a pretty good Antisepticeye cosplay at the JSE tour with that for his scruff/beard, and Jack/Sean said it was pretty convincing.

So, I’m doing a Phantom cosplay for Halloween-

I have most of the clothes I need- Except for the God damn vest.

I know how to do the fricken pale af makeup, and I have most of it.

I have the cane.

I even bought a wig and fake gauges.

BuT hOW ThE FUCK dO I DO the EYEBROWS-

I HAVE TWIGS ON MY FACE AND I HAVE NO CLUE HOW TO TURN THEM INTO THAT.

LIKE, YOU CAN’T EVEN SEE MINE AND HIS ARE THICC AF.

LIKE, EGJDJCJ MY FUCKING MAKEUP SKILLS ARE BAD AS IT IS BUT HOW DO I DO EYEBROWS LIKE THAT-

H E L P???

Lovely work! Reblogging for inspiration

So as I said before. My cane for Phantom was stolen. So I had to make my own. I know the orb I have is pretty big but it's all I could get at such a short notice with the con just a DAY away. Finishing it up now and honestly? I think Phantom would be proud of my work so far :)

Imagine Dark losing control of his aura and killing Wilford, before coming to and sobbing over his body. -Angst Anon

Good thing I saw this in the morning, when my heart is dead. But here’s what happens when I imagine that:

—tw: blood, death, general angst—(Sorry, mobile won’t let me put the “keep reading” in here)

Looking back, no one who survived was sure what had started it. They’d been in a meeting when the sound of Dark’s aura spiked in a crescendo of ringing throughout the room. There was maybe half a heartbeat for the egos to react, more than enough time for Bing, Google, and Silver Shepherd to move.

Bing had been sitting next to King of the Squirrels near the door, the two planning to go outside as soon as the meeting ended. Bing was working on a new kickflip, and King had some new subjects to ease into his little family. As soon as he heard the ringing, Bing made a break for it, not even bothering to open the door and crashing through the wood. His movement turned the aura’s attention to the door, and King was the first to go, the shadowy tendrils gripping him tightly enough to crush his ribs. Multiple jagged bones pierced his lungs, and King’s peanut butter beard turned bloody as he coughed up his life.

Google was farther from the door, and he realized that any sudden movement would mean trouble for them all. He crept slowly to one of the windows behind them, moving much slower than a human would. He could hear the sounds of bones breaking and screams of pain as Dark’s aura made quick work of the room, but he didn’t turn to look. He managed to open the window enough to fit through, and began to climb out.A suit-clad body knocked Google off balance, shoving him to the floor as Bim made a break for it. Bim’s delay, and mad dash for the window, brought the aura’s attention to them. Google’s head was pulled from his body, exposing the wires and fibers in his neck. They sparked and flashed as his shell fell to the floor. Bim was climbing down the side of the building when the aura caught him. He was lifted from the bricks and slammed back against them, head crushed like an overripe tomato. His corpse crashed to the ground.

Silver Shepherd had reached Dark’s form just after King’s unfortunate demise, planning to fight Dark long enough for the others to escape. His first punch caught Dark’s aura off-guard, but his second was caught by a large tendril of the aura. Shepherd screamed in agony as his fist was crushed, the crackling of broken bones loud enough to be heard. The aura dropped him to the floor as it reached for the others.

Ed Edgar didn’t have time to run or bargain, dying in his chair with Dark’s name on his lips. “The Host trembled, knowing that the aura was reaching out for him next. It gripped him by the throat,” Host’s words cut off in a choked gurgle as the aura made quick work of crushing his neck. The taste of blood flooded his mouth, and the narrator was silenced forever.Yan attacked with a screech of “You killed senpai!��� They managed to cut through one of the tendrils before another grabbed their katana. The scent of blood filled the room, heavy and copperish, as the aura used the blade to slice Yan open. The red-haired ego’s last thought was of their failure to protect or avenge senpai.

Wilford managed to draw his gun, standing at the edge of the room. Everything had happened so quickly, and he wasn’t sure whether Dark would or could listen to reason. He could see Dark’s form where he’d crumpled around himself after Silver’s punch, and sympathy stopped him from firing immediately.“Darkling, please,” he managed before the aura slammed into him. The tendrils flooded his mouth, filling it with the taste of smoke, rather than the dark chocolate that was characteristic of Dark. He fired his gun in Dark’s direction, missing as the aura jerked Dark from the spot. More tendrils filled his mouth, shoving his jaw open as they moved down his throat. He gagged and choked, feeling his breath cut off as they went deeper than Dark had ever sent them.

Dr Iplier entered as Wil’s body was jerking in its death throes. He gasped in horror at the sight of the carnage before him and dropped to his knees. The thudding noise was loud in the silence of the death-filled room, and his sobs brought Dark back to himself.

“Doctor? Why are you…” his words trailed off as the scene before him registered. He caught sight of Wil’s signature pink floof and rushed over to his partner.

“Wil? Wilford, please, this isn’t funny.” He knelt beside Wil’s still form, hoping this was one of his pranks. His hands reached out to touch him, only to be batted away by the doctor’s.

“Haven’t you done enough already?” the lab-coated man growled. “Look at them all, Darkiplier. You and your jealousy killed everyone.”

“No, it’s one of Wil’s tricks, it has to be!”

“Wilford has never done something this morbid to you, and you know it. You did this, Darkiplier. You, and you alone.”

Dark’s head dropped to Wil’s chest and he whispered, “It was an accident, Wil, I swear.” He spoke louder, letting the doctor hear him. “It was my aura. I…it took over and shut me out. I don’t even remember what set it off. Can,” he hesitated. “Can you save him? Them?”

Dr Iplier shook his head, calming at Dark’s explanation. The sadness of Dark’s situation and feeling of his own helplessness filled him as he replied, “I’m sorry. They’re dead.”

reblog this if you’re an indie roleplaying blog with both an LGBTQIA+ mun and LGBTQIA+ muse(s).

i’m trying to get an idea of how large portion of the indie rp community consists of queer muses being written and represented by queer people themselves. allies, don’t interact.

Random thoughts sometimes become re-written song lyrics. Enjoy this one, inspired by the RP server & our characters.

Trying my hand at digital art

[bittenscreations]

For anyone who wants a free pose-able human reference for drawing

The other day I came across this awesome program by accident (I don’t even remember what I was actually searching for, but on the several times I’ve looked for a program like this I’ve had no luck). It’s cool enough that I wanted to share it.

It’s called DesignDoll (website here) and it’s a program that lets you shape and pose a human figure pretty much however you want.

There’s a trial version with no expiration date that can be downloaded for free, as well as the “pro license” version priced at $79. I’ve only had the free version for two days so far, so I’m not an expert and I haven’t figured out all of the features yet, but I’ve got the basics down. The website’s tutorials are actually pretty helpful for the basics, as well. 

Here’s the page for download, which has a list of the features available in both versions.

There are three features the free version doesn’t have:

Can’t save OBJ files for export

Can’t download models and poses from Doll Atelier (a sharing site for users; note that the site is in Japanese, though)

It can’t load saved files

The third one means that if you make a pose, save it, and close the program, you can’t load that pose/modified model later. You have to start with the default model. I found that out when I tried to load a file from the day before (this is why reading is important…). Whether saving your modifications (and downloading models and poses) is worth $80 is up to you. 

But, the default model is pretty nice and honestly if all you’re looking for is a basic pose reference it should work fairly well as it is. Here’s what it looks like:

There’s a pose tag that lets you drag each joint into place and rotate body parts. The torso and waist can be twisted separately, and it seems like everything pretty much follows the range of movement it would have on an actual human.

Even the entire shoulder area is actually movable along with the joint! See, like how the scapular area of the back raises with the arm:

The morphing tag is one of the coolest features, in my opinion. It lets you pick and choose from a library of pre-set forms for the head, chest, arms, legs, etc. It has some more realistic body shapes in addition to more anime-like ones. Don’t like the options there? Mix a few to get what you want! Each option has a slider that lets you blend as much or as little as you want into the design. 

So you, too, can create beautiful things like kawaii Muscle-chan!!

The scale tag lets you mess with the proportions and connection points of different joints. This feature combined with the morphing feature not only allows more body shape variations, but it also means that you can do things like make a more digitigrade model if you want. (The feet only have an ankle joint, but for regular human poses that’s all that you really need, so whatever.)

Or you can make a weird chubby alien-like thing with giant hands and balloon tiddies if that’s more your thing.

The ability to pose hands to the extent it allows is far more than I could have hoped for from a free program. Seriously, you can change the position of each finger joint individually, as well as how spread out the fingers are from each other. Each crease on the diagram below is a point of movement, and the circles are for spread between fingers. 

And to make it a bit more convenient, there’s a library of pre-set hand poses you can pick from as well, and then change the pose from that if you like. 

In both versions, you can also import OBJ files from other places for the model to hold, like if you wanted to have them hold a sword or something.

Basically, this program is awesome and free and you should totally check it out if you want a good program for creating pose references.

It’s not the best, but it *is* my first attempt at digital art with people. Inspired by a scene in RP between King of the Squirrels (sans crown and cloak) and Marvin the magician, after his mask was broken.

Marvin conjures confetti, and King is delighted.

And some of us understand and accept that. Many others try to blind themselves to that reality.

Hello Midguard!

[bittenscreations]

Awww, poor sweet Wilford. No other way to communicate? We all know you’re not limited to using your tongue to get the point across.

Hush. Now, why would you give any one of us so much power, sweetness?

Wilford takes a breath in to respond, before it comes out in a huff. That’s right, he can’t talk. Well, this isn’t as much fun as he’d thought it would be. Then again, the way he’s being spoken to has him looking somewhat concerned for himself.

[bittenscreations]

You *are* the rightful king of Asgard, and I’ve long been a fan of your chaotic nature. It’s a honor to even have your attention, majesty.

Hello Midguard!

[bittenscreations]

Aw, you’re adorable.

Would you rather punch Wilford in the face (possibly pissing off Dark) or lick the peanut butter off of the king of squirrels face?

I’ve hit Wilford before it was actually Darks idea I think.

[bittenscreations]

The feeling is mutual, my king.

Hello Midguard!
