[GaMzEeMaKaRa77]

OMG I saw you in pics and they are sick

[Mewthreezx13]

[whippedawesomeness]

Whoakjshj

*Whuah

*Fuck it

I jumped out of my seat when she opened her mouth

was not expecting the pointy teeth

[YaoiTarot]

AhHHH thank you I was looking for something like this Dx

[xbreakingfreex7]

Did you apply powder to the arms too? And how many 'cakes' of makeup did you go threw to cover your arms and face and neck?



[TheMiraculousMiracle]

@Hristo1999 YeS.

[TheMiraculousMiracle]

Could the grey also be used for like the arms and neck?

[WhiteFangWolfBite]

Where do you find the makup? I HAVE NO IDEA WHERE HELP!

[9VoltRobot]

If this gets top comment, I will roam the streets dressed as gamzee, and my friend will be dressed as eridan. If it gets 50 thumbs up, I'll take pics.

And if it doesn't, I'll do all that anyway.

[TheDrearyDeer]

I have ben nye, but it's not the usual kind, it's all liquid and comes in an ink bottle looking thing. No one that i've seen so far has the kind i do, and i'm having an ass load of trouble with it, also it cracks a lot. Does anyone have any solutions for me? I'm worrying about it a lot because i have a con next week.

[shiichandoomwow]

o3o whats the song?

[Mewthreezx13]

@shiichandoomwow miracles by icp owoUu

[seekerofdarkness]

those teeth are gorgous! where did you get them? and this makeup tutorial I shall use in the near future!

[adriannrod]

Your Gamzee pants!!! How did you do them? Did you buy them, or make them?

[Eraklondike]

How did you do the teeth?

[AngelGuide1]

she has the sweetest voice ;A;

[WarriorsAndWolfFan1]

anyone else notice the name of the song.....XD and great tutorial

[Thechloeya]

Soooo scary 😱

[aces123abc]

You are the perfect gamzee! thanks for the tutorial btw ^^

[ChisukieDA]

Regarding your original makeup tutorial, can the Ghoul Gray Ben Nye makeup work? :c I saw something about it on the MSPA forums, and people where saying it's not quite right.... do you know if it's to light or to dark?

[jordanXnarutoXjenna]

@ChisukieDA As far as I know it's a good make-up but the consistency can be a bit troublesome and on some people it looks too dark. Graftobian (theatrical, Ghost Grey) make-up seems to be amazing though.

[BadWolfOfGallifrey]

Love this video.

But when it was "Mime Joke Time" you reminded me of Silas from Epic Movie. /shot

But this will help A LOT because at Omni Con this year, my capricorn bro is letting me dress her as Gamzea. :3

[Mewthreezx13]

the gray that you use is "metallic" like ? i only have a metallic one TT.TT i need help, is for this sunday

[datkid56]

WHERE THE FUCK DOES A BOY BUY MAKEUP AT, WHERE.

I LOOKED AT PARTY CITY AND HAD NO CONFIDENCE FOR BUYING THE FACE PAINT THINKING IT WOUD NOT WORK OUT, SO I HAVE NOW THREE DAYS LEFT TILL THE CON AND ONLY HAVE THE SHIRT AND FABRIC PAINT TO MAKE THE CAPRICORN SIGN, HELP! ! !

[bmacfan]

@datkid56 Just go to a make up store! I know that may be one of the most degradeing thing ever...But you gotta do what you gotta do.

[datkid56]

@bmacfan Alright

[shadowwolf2334]

qustion were do you get the make up from??

[SapphireRoseist]

Am I the only one who finds it ironic, that miracles was playing and gamzee hates that song? xp

I loved this tutorial thoug<3

[evilhellokitty13]

is the 2x white 1xgrey and 1x steel grey just for one person? or multiple?

[an1meXXd0nutXXrul3s]

IMMA MARRY GAMZEE MAKARA

THTS FINAL!

[MNCosplaySTUCK]

ALRIGHT! Hanyann, I'm making a list of stuff I need for Gamzee make-up, since I'm completely useless when it comes to this! I'm going to use the Ben Nye products. Here's what I have so far on my list:

1-2x white (Depends how much it is, and your desc. says 2), 1x grey, 1x steel grey, x2 final seal, thin angled brush, and powder (What was it that you used?) Am I missing anything? And what would I mix for the grey body color? (Like, arm and neck color) What grey would I use on my face?

[FadeingAngel]

Hey if you don't mind my asking what do you use for your teeth? I've been looking all over for some decent troll teeth ^^

[TheHarleyToTheJoker]

My friends really interested in Homestuck, I'm not but I'm a capricorn and she just made some horns for her cosplay! I'd really love to cosplay this, with her, for her. Thanks for a great tutorial. ^_^

[theycallmemagic]

your voice is perfect for rose or kanaya or aradia

[FlyingZamora]

WHY 1N TH3 WORLD WOULD YOU PLAY 1CP FOR 4 G4MZ33 COSPL4Y? WHY? WHHHYYYY?

[06sabbeth062]

@FlyingZamora Because we're keeping ironic like Dave Strider.

[FlyingZamora]

@06sabbeth062

L1K3 D4V3 YOU S4Y? SW33T

[Mchelization]

@FlyingZamora Hello, this is OMGTURTLEZ:]

[SyntheticNight94]

Is it wrong that I want to tackle hug you? X3

[naruhina2894]

OMG IVE SEEN THAT PICTURE BEFORE....SOMEONE PUT YOU ON A VIDEO XD

[EvilToastify]

What is the gray paint you used? Is it foundation like the white you are applying? and Where did you possibly get it? I've had some pretty sad fails with face paint in general with cosplay and I finally decided that it would be a good idea to figure out where I could get make up that looks as flawless as yours and if there is a specific way to apply it?Also,Where did you get that setting spray and what is it called?

[TheExplodinKitteh]

How long does Ben Nye creme liner last unopened? Will it change it in any way? Will it last until April??

[sunarry]

you did a get job on this tutorial! and your voice is easy to listen to ....(totally not trying to sound creepy) XD

[Mrkawaii12]

I'm confused. :c How do I get my arms and the skin showing colored like it's supposed to? XDD

[ZeXMouse]

So, I'm using Kryolan Aquacolor, and it's water-activated. I'm also buying the Final Seal to spray on, but is the powder absolutely necessary? I'm just on a budget, and the less I have to buy, the better. xD Btw, you make a beautiful Gamzee! <3

[CielloDrive]

I'm sorry, but it's rather hard to hear what you're saying with the music playing. But luckily I can see it XP

[Rainbowxbutterxkat]

How'd you make your Horns? They look sweet.

[SpiderSquirrelPro]

Haha, how did you breath during the powder part?? xD

[HelloKittyHK94]

ILU for the music!!! <3

[bloodypanther]

lot of thanks for this tutorial! will be very useful for our gamzee cosplay

[IchigoAbarai]

Fantastic tutorial! Thank you :D

[StillNotLaughin]

For the black make up part

What brand was i t bc i didnt xatch it

[MahMagicalHat]

@hanyaan Hey! I'm planning on dressing up as a troll OC of mine for halloween as well as on the day of halloween at my school. I was wondering, with all the grey "skin" make-up, is there a way to keep it so that it can all withstand a good days-worth of activity? For example, smudging my hand across a paper when writing? Is there a kind of spray I can use to seal it on my skin or would I have to use something completely different than make-up for my arms and hands?

[MahMagicalHat]

@MahMagicalHat Sorry, screw that crap question. I finally decided to click that tutorial link of yours in the description and see all the pretty little details. Wow, you sure are thorough! Thank you for both of these tutorials (though I won't be using the Gamzee make-up one, hurrr)! Very thoughtful and kind of you. Also, on a random note, I love your eyes. You have a very beautiful smile. : ) Soanyway,kaythanx~

[KianaTheWarewolf]

Your voice sounds like the voice of Kyo on the Genderbender of Haruhi Suzumiya Podcast that I love. Hmm

[KianaTheWarewolf]

Were did you get your teeth? The only this I don't have for my Vriska Is the teeth.

[nw5111]

I find this hard to masturbate to.

[emoneko585]

tHe SoNg

:o(

[Randomgal417]

what kind of transparent powder did you use?

[allie9555]

Where did you get the T-Shirt!? I need a Tavros one.

[MahMagicalHat]

@allie9555 The Troll Tee's can be found on the MSPaint Adventures shop. The Tavros shirts are still in stock, fortunately!

[allie9555]

@MahMagicalHat TY!

[zemyx96renhei]

mOtHeRfUcKiNg HoNk... CaNt WaIt FoR kAwA-cOn, GoInG aS sObEr GaMzEe!

[demonatafan2010]

could you do a karkat one?

[Gazpatchoness]

what foundation did you use?

[ScarletMansionDevil]

so.. you you were the one i saw on google i think your the most amazing gamzee cosplayer ever!

[soiyoluffscats]

thank you for your help >u<

[Hiffvie]

GREAT tutorial! This will be SO useful!

Thanks for taking the time to make this!

Only one thing though, I have a bit of trouble following what you're saying at times because the music distracts me... :o( I think it wold have been a little less distracting if you had used instrumental music.

But, once again, Thank you so much for making this!!

[Maniac151340]

ur cute

[MagicCat97]

Hey, thanks alot for doing this! i'll be Gamzee for Halloween this year (or Eridan...) but do you know where i can find the clothes for Gamzee?

[samizwolfieKO]

Thank you very much :) I think I might be gamzee for the next con i go to :)

Your voice also reminds me of my head cannon for rose or kanaya.

[lilAlucard]

;3; I love you so much right now. Thank you for doing this <33

[JExyTan]

With how pleasant your voice was, I was half expecting a "happy trees" to come in XD But anyways this is totally helpful! I maaaaay do Terezi some time, and even if this is for Gamzee it's still useful to watch for application and stuff like that.

[BIackHatted]

ThIs MuSiC iS eXtReMeLy FiTtInG.

:o)

hOnK

[robineperver]

It might sound a little A LITTLE BIT stupid but..... i'm stuck at searching for pants .____. i'm searching like.... The kind of pants which kinda go with the tuxedo and... other kind o___o what are those kind of pant D= they seem so "loose" ._.?

[Homestucktrolls]

Your voice is so cute ; u ;

I am gonna make his cosplay/get it and shiz and my face is so pale that when i first was putting the white on my face it didnt look much of a change sep i didnt have freckles no more.

[XxHenkaChanxX]

lol looked like voldemort at first

[ChocoAndCigs]

Ack, I dunno if my last comment sent. Anyway.

I just wanted to thank you over and over for this tutorial. But I have a few questions about coloring your arms, neck, etc. You use the same troll-gray mixture like in your first tutorial, I'm guessing. Do you add powder on those too? Will it really last all day at a convention with hugging and sweating and all of that jazz?

[UnsureDreamer]

O_O what are you listening too. I'm scared to say it sounds like Pulp Fiction XD is it?

[kittykat490]

@UnsureDreamer

Insane Clown Posse :o)

[derangedInimeg]

...WHAT DID YOU MAKE YOUR FANGS WITH D:

[hanyaan]

@derangedInimeg I made them with the local costume shop, lol. They're Dracula House "Sexy Bites".

[Kempster3Chels]

@hanyaan Love those things dude.. awesome.

[onyx78787]

@hanyaan They look a lot like the "ScareCrow" Fangs that I have! :D! I'm being Karkat for Anime North this year.

[xCurii]

Thanks so much for making this tutorial! It's really helpful, and you really know what you're doing! Cx

And you're really pretty /coughcough/

But. The music is SO DISTRACTING XD

I was trying to listen to you, but the music was like HEY LISTEN TO ME INSTEAD so I like zoned out on half the tutorial!

[skitzol4dhuntersYAY]

HONK.

[404joeygirl]

Where do you get the shirts for this???? I've been looking every where and I can't even find a Vriska shirt!!

[xCurii]

@404joeygirl

For the shirts you can go to the MSPA store and go order one online!

Or you can do what I plan to do, and just go buy a plain black shirt, and some fabric paint ( You should be able to find some either at Wal-Mart, or a crafting store. ), and just draw the symbol on. You'll probably have to go over it a few times to get it bold, but it should turn out fine c:

[Ofrosen]

May I ask where you got the wig for the cosplay @A@ I'm having a really hard time finding one

[ValerianSugar]

Good tutorial, but that music is awfull and doesnt let us understand what the hell you are saying. @_@;;;

[HalloweenQueen95]

oh gog yes :3 this is perfect

[XxCrimsonBloodxX]

Where did you find the teeth for this costume? Or did you just make them?

[carciinoGeneticist]

@XxCrimsonBloodxX I'm pretty sure she explained this somewhere before. She used Tooth black for the smaller pointy teeth, and Sexy Vamp Fangs from a party costume store for the bigger ones. :)

[XxCrimsonBloodxX]

@carciinoGeneticist Thank you! haha I should have read more of the comments.

[XxCrimsonBloodxX]

Where did you find the teeth for this costume? Or did you just make them?

[xXinfinateXx]

what gray makeup did you use?

[carciinoGeneticist]

@xXinfinateXx She used Ben Nye creme liner on her face, and PAX (a mix of acrylic paint and ProsAide adhesive) for the body makeup. There's a link in the description for the material list, as well as the tutorial to put the makeup on. :)

[Poochilo]

Probably one of the best Gamzee cosplays I've seen. You make Gamzee look adorable, which he is-- when he isn't killing people.

[CielsTopHatNoJutsu]

Hello! Great tutorial! My friends and I had used the Ben-Nye, but the problem was even with the final seal and powder, it still smudged, ( And I will also point out we did not use foundation primer. I can afford so much.) And I was curious about PAX; Making it; Or maybe where to get it, and what exactly would I buy.

[Soroboruo]

The music kinda of makes it hard to hear what you're saying...could you possibly add annotations to this, please?

[IsOneFunkyNoob]

Where did you get your set of sharp teeth? they look pretty legit :>

[PeppermintBiscuit]

Thanks so much for the tutorial!

However, one critique: your music is much too loud compared to your voice. Half the time I can't hear what you are saying through the lyrics of the song.

Please tone down the background noise next time.

[supernukunuku]

I do have to comment that the music is a bit loud so it makes you a tad hard to understand at points

[Sasukeloverxxx]

So generally, how much makeup do you have left over from this? I saw the mspa fourm thing and I'll be going to anime expo. I need enough for 3 days. Is there enough?

[OtakuOtaku39]

@Sasukeloverxxx Just.

DON'T.

SLEEP.

AND YOUR GOOD :D

[KikiTheRaverKitty]

California? ARE YOU GOING TO AX THIS YEAR? <3 I'm going as Terezi.

[doseusa]

Oh this song...

[ChibiDevii]

@doseusa >:) im a stalker. lol no i'll watch this later when i have time JUST FOR YOU.

[CielsTopHatNoJutsu]

Hello! I hate to trouble you, but I can't find any of the ben nye makeup, the transparent powder, tooth black, theatrical creme makeup or foundation primer after like 5 makeup stores, D: I hate to ask, but where did you get all of this makeup, and if so are there any possible alternatives?

Thank you~!

[popularzelda]

I wanted to ask, where did you get your gray makeup? I have been stumped and I can't find it anywhere!

[ikarinoojo]

so could ben nye's neutral set work for the part that you powdered your face? and i read your basic troll tutorial, do I still need white, black, and dark grey eyeliner for gamzee as well? I'm doing Gamzee for AnimeNEXT this year and am trying to follow your tutorial to make sure that I do this perfectly for the saturday of the con.

[crazy4muffinz]

thank u my friend is obsessed with homestuck and me her and my other two friends all the characters names (nicknames) and shes gamzee im vriska my other friends are torezze and solicx i dont know how to spell the names sometimes and she wants to be gamzee for halloween so thanks lol

[AnnoyingKitty]

For your primer you said to get Monistat Anti-Chafe blah blah

but my Walgreens doesn't have it but instead has a "From the makers of Monistat" thing which is itch relief cream soothing care.

Do you think that would work, too?

[00Gimme00]

@AnnoyingKitty

Just going to come out and say; probably not the same stuff, and you might be better off checking at other drug stores in your area. Maybe WalMart?

[AnnoyingKitty]

@00Gimme00 Yeah that's what I thought. WOO AWKWARD REFUND.

Honestly the only reason I want it to be from Walgreens is because I get a 15% discount hahaha.

[YoYoToTiToTiToYo]

Could you explain to me how you made your horns ^~^?

I've asked friends how they made they're troll horns for other trolls but a few mentioned how good looking gamzee horns could be too heavy for fimo clay~

I guess you used a head band for the support for them like most horns~

So how did you make the horns and how did you attach them to the headband ^~^?

You probably get this alot but i would appreciate it ^~^ <3

[AnnoyingKitty]

So is super white powder considered colorless? Also since I'm doing Vriska would I be able to apply blue make up and stuff over all this stuff?

[fauxbrains]

How'd you do the arms? Like what material did you use to cover em cos it looks great.

[Helvitinei]

This is really great :). Thank you very much for sharing.

I have an irrelevant question (at least a bit irrelevant), where did you get the dentals? They look absolutely amazing (and you're really cute when you smile with them :)).

And keep up the good work ~. You make a great troll xD

[CielsTopHatNoJutsu]

@Helvitinei For the fangs, you can just use tooth black:P She explained that in the tutorial.

[Magnetohydrodynamics]

I am making a Vampire The Masquerade LARP character based of Gamzee.

HONK

[Prnnce]

HONK honk

[SpottedPillow]

you make a really nice gamzee.

HoNk

[rollinandsmoken]

I think I might already be followwing you on devviantART

[ConsidermeCrazy]

How did you do for like your arms? o:

Is it paint too?

[OnePieceShanksFan]

How much of the Ben Nye cream do you use for one troll-run? You mix two whites and one grey, correct? Do you end up using all of the mixture, or does it use only a bit?

[Zenophrenic]

Hey there!

I can't thank you enough for EXISTING to create all these tutorials for us.

But I really need to ask: Where the heck did you get your colorless powder from? I've been shopping for all my supplies and I keep finding everything BUT that one item. I do come across 'neutral set' powder a lot; is that the same thing?

[hanyaan]

@Zenophrenic yes, it is the same! I think you can also use talcum powder in a pinch!

[ShiwooBxtch]

This is amazing!!

What are the teeth you use?! Are they those like vampire fangs that you put on individually? Or are your other teeth just naturally sharp like that? :'''D

It looks so awesome. I'm starting my own Gamzee cosplay~

[meeshbeard]

Is there any specific product you use to take the makeup off, other than soap and water? I've been kind of afraid to cosplay as any character who would require a lot of face makeup, 'cause I feel like just rubbing it off at the end of the day would be too harsh on my skin :o

[hanyaan]

@meeshbeard Cold cream! Pond's is standard but el cheapo drugstore brand works just fine. For everything other than my face, Doctor Bronner's liquid castile soap works miracles.

[mangenkyokakashi]

ThAt thErE Is A mOthErf*ckIng mIrAclE!

[RoxYourSoxOhYea]

Fabulous!

But what about the wig? I'm sure you styled it and everything, but what was the length of the wig when you first got it and what did you use to style it like that?

[hanyaan]

@RoxYourSoxOhYea Thank you! The wig I got was this item dot taobao dot com slash item dot htm question mark id equalsign 6609639017 (which is a Touhou Project wig from Fantasy Sheep on Taobao which I ordered via email). I cut it shorter all around with a razor and then made it fluffier primarily by backcombing with a teasing comb, and blasted it a bit with got2b hairspray to help it stay in place. It's really soft and squishy!

[DragonFire381]

This is the greatest tutorial I have seen!

...

HONK

:o)

[hanyaan]

@coolwithdig My fangs are "Sexy Bite" fangs from the Halloween store, although I know another Gamzee got the same ones as me and found them too small. But they work perfect for me! I made the pants myself. Pajama pants pattern + flannel + a bunch of dark fabric iron-on transfers = awesomepants. Only took me a day, and they're the comfiest things ever. I could live in them.

[tengwarsenna]

Holy Shit you are my hero! This is amazingly good! I don't know what to say past that.

I really need to find a good supplier that will ship Ben Nye stuff to Canada. I hate being stuck with huge shipping charges...

[hanyaan]

@tengwarsenna Thank you! You don't necessarily need to use ben nye or even creme makeup (although I prefer creme makeup on my face); it's more the technique that matters. Depending on where you are, you could do what I do and shop in theatrical supply stores. I know there's theater up in Canada!

[MissyPyramid]

Hey, what did you do for the skin color, like, your arms and stuff? Same thing? O: Cuz it sorta seems like it would rub off of your hands and such... D:

[hanyaan]

@MissyPyramid yes indeedy, although for my arms and hands I had a slightly different mixture (see the link to the mspa forums in the vid description). Final Seal before, apply makeup in lighter concentration, ALL THE POWDER ALL OF IT, and then more final seal. About five thin coats of final seal. Works pretty nice!

[PurpleKirby54]

MAKING THIS MY HALLOWEEN COSTUME.

honk

HONK

honk :o)

[terminalyCapricious]

@PurpleKirby54 HEY, MOTHERFUCKER.

you can't just fucking use my motherfucking face as your party gear.

THAT WOULDN'T MAKE SENCE.

HONK Do:

[PurpleKirby54]

@terminalyCapricious oh god. OH GOD OH GOD OHGODOHGOD D:

@PurpleKirby54 DONT MESS WITH HIM DUDE, HE IS KILLING EVERYBODY!!!!!! SAVE YOURSELF!!! OH GOG OH GOG OH GOG I THINK I JUST HEARD A HONK!!!!!

[PurpleKirby54]

@carcioGenecist Karkat!! OK, seeing as how Earth isn't destroyed in my timeline, how do I avoid him with effectiveness?!

oh god I think I heard a honk now D:

[carcioGenecist]

@PurpleKirby54 JUST GO INTO A CORNER, OR SOMETHING... I CANT EVEN THINK!!!!!!! ARGH! OH GOG, I JUST HEARD ANOTHER HONK

[Smashdood]

This tutorial was quite helpful, as you have probably seen - I was Gamzee at Ohayocon (posted all those videos on the forums) and I couldn't have done it without your wisdom!

:o)

[MeineObsession]

Amazing, darling just amazing. :D

[CrocoDuck420]

I have a question, is it possible to mix solid alcohol activated paint with alcohol and use that mixture in an Air brush vial?

[hanyaan]

@CrocoDuck420 Yes it is! It may not be as easy to blend as what I'm doing in this tutorial, though.

[Omegashadowyoshi]

FUCKING MAGNETS

[OceanicCamels]

nah

[CrocoDuck420]

Those eyes :3

[hanyaan]

@CrocoDuck420 contacts. :D my eyes are really a light blue, which totally does not look right for trolls. but since i got circle lenses, they make my eyes look HUGE.

[hanyaan]

@ajloveshbk666 It may look white, but I was using Ben Nye Neutral Set Transparent Powder. That stuff is totally awesome. It works no matter what your skin tone (or no matter what you may have painted your skin tone to be).
