Yeah, I wanted to do my own version of her dress, since her perfect cherry blossom one is so plain.

Hey! Your cosplay looks absolutely amazing, but can I say something about your expressions?
Please, don't take it personally... But, Yukari strikes me as someone who looks curious and amused most of the time, instead of looking blankly at things.
She has this snarky smirk and has that look in her eyes which I like to translate to "I will devour you" face.

I h-hope you don't mind that kind of feedback as it's a minor detail and it could be like, my own personal opinion, which you don't have to consider at all <.<

And I would comment on all pictures but I would rather not spam "Wow! Gorgeous!" or "Great pic!" and "The costume looks _perfect_ (which it does, honest)".

Anyways, great job

Emmaliene In reply to Heiteinah [2012-05-21 19:36:43 +0000 UTC]

No, I don't take things personally, I'm totally fine with critique!

I should point out though, that I model for various photographers, and that's the sort of face that most prefer, if you've noticed most models in fashion shoots. So, it's more of a habit to fall into those sorts of expressions. D:

Actually, I do have a couple photos where I personally think I look more in character:
[link] [link] and [link]

I'd love your feedback on those ones ;u;

Heiteinah In reply to Emmaliene [2012-05-22 05:51:20 +0000 UTC]

Ah! I get it!
Well, it's tough, but I understand how you feel.
Lets see...
The links for the first two didn't work out, but I took my time over your touhou folder. The Suwako pictures look very nice and do remind me of her a lot, so great work on nailing her personality quite well!

Now, back to the Yukari pictures...
I liked these three: [link] (Which you linked, it looks a bit more in character)
[link] This one has a bit more of a blank expression, but somehow it feels so right... I'd say... "Staring into the void", I dunno, it just strikes me that way
[link] This one makes me feel happy, you look like you're staring something down like "Hohohoh, inferior being!" or "Pitiful! *giggles*", or simply looking over something satisfied with whatever you just did.

And well, stating the obvious, you're gorgeous

Emmaliene In reply to Heiteinah [2012-05-22 06:07:01 +0000 UTC]

FFFFFTTTT, dat Suwako. I felt like I made a lot of awkward faces XD

Thanks so much for your feedback, I actually really appreciate it. I get rather sick of the "woah, pretty," or "I like your cosplay," or, sometimes, merely ""

It's boring, I'd rather have legitimate feedback.

And that is very sweet of you ;u;

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Heiteinah In reply to Emmaliene [2012-05-22 17:51:15 +0000 UTC]

Hah! I'm so glad someone wants to hear some feedback instead of having their ego fed!

Well, as for Suwako, she's a slightly awkward anyways, but the faces you did were really nice, very "Suwako-ish"

And I really like Yukari (not enough to cosplay her, as I did with Mokou lol). Once again, just to be sure, you did a fantastic work with the costume overall.

And I don't know much of your others cosplays, or else I'd be glad to say something about those too.

Anyways, thank you for reading and accepting my feedback. I'll be watching your account, if you don't mind.

Cheers!

I adore Yukari, her, Alice, and Remilia are my favourite Touhou characters!~ I'm actually going to be Remilia for a July convention <3 Thanks for complimenting my cosplay, I sew them all myself ;u;

If you ever want to give feedback, seriously, feel free, I'm incredibly appreciative.

And thanks for the watch c:

Heiteinah In reply to Emmaliene [2012-05-23 02:21:02 +0000 UTC]

I'm glad!
Remilia? Oh! Nice... Make sure to wrap up your... chest... Since Remilia is... young... you know? XDDD Gosh this is so embarrassing...


I will give you feedback!

> I sew them all myself

GOSH, I wish I had those skills! But my fingers are not steady... I broke them all at least twice... And I can't do very precise things... Which is a shame..

BUT, I'll make sure to give you some feedback and whatnot whenever I feel I can!

Take care~

Emmaliene In reply to Heiteinah [2012-05-23 04:11:06 +0000 UTC]

I'm actually pretty flat chested, so, I don't think it'll be too much of an issue. My Flandre, on the other hand, will need to be bound.

I've been sewing since I was little, so I like to think I've gotten pretty decent c: And oh gosh, I know that feel, my left arm is nearly useless due to permanent nerve damage. But, I don't really use my left hand for sew other then to hold down fabric or something, so, it's not too hard. But oh gosh, your poor fingers D:


alsdkjfsdf, thank you so much ;u;

Heiteinah In reply to Emmaliene [2012-05-23 17:22:14 +0000 UTC]

Oh, those pictures are somewhat deceiving them...

Hah, well, good luck with that, anyways!
It's... depressing on my end, since I love playing the guitar, but I can't improve a lot because of this situation... And even weirder, it's that I'm ambidextrous, but my handwriting is horrendous with both hands! LOL
At least I can cook and cook very well... *sigh of relief*

Well, I ... I'm sorry about your left arm nerve damage is a terrible thing to deal with, I know that because of my uncle.

Be fine, will ya? And I'm looking forward to your upcoming cosplays!

Emmaliene In reply to Heiteinah [2012-05-23 19:28:48 +0000 UTC]

Maybe I'm not as flat chested as a I thought. Compared to most of my friends, though, I'd be considered flat XD

I play piano and guitar, I know that feel, bro. Darn left armmm D: OH god, I can't cook to save my life D: Hot oil erry where.

I don't think mine is too severe, it just shakes a lot, so it's difficult to do things.

oof, thanks, man

Heiteinah In reply to Emmaliene [2012-05-24 04:47:28 +0000 UTC]

Wow... Well, sorry for ... talking about it D:

Oh! Piano!
I can play that since I don't need to be extremely precise, which is not the case of the guitar for example...
Cooking is easy! The more relaxed you are when you do it, the better the outcome!

I guess... My fingers are unsteady, perhaps in a lesser degree compared to your situation ...

Emmaliene In reply to Heiteinah [2012-05-24 07:01:30 +0000 UTC]

Oh, pft, I don't care XD

I've been playing piano since I was four!~ And I dunno, I'm really advanced, so, the left hand is near impossible to do now, because of tricky fingerwork. ;n;

And I dunno, man, I just don't have the magic touch.

Heiteinah In reply to Emmaliene [2012-05-24 17:25:34 +0000 UTC]

Hah! Well...

I... see... well, I hope you can recover from that, somehow..
And, well, do you have anything recorded? I'd love to hear it, if possible.
I'm looking for inspiration for a song I'm writing, so I'm basically on a 'listen to anything' rampage lately...

You might as well could recommend me a few songs to listen to too, I wouldn't mind it!

Emmaliene In reply to Heiteinah [2012-05-24 17:28:51 +0000 UTC]

None of my piano playing is recorded unfortunately, just a bunch of videos of me singing (I do musical theater).

And hm, what sort of genre do you listen to?

HRM HRM HRM, I listen to a lot of indie music, listen to any of that?

And sure, if I can dig up old recordings

Heiteinah In reply to Emmaliene [2012-05-24 22:18:51 +0000 UTC]

That's quite wide. Give me some examples.
I listen to Porcupine Tree, mostly. Everything else comes with time.

Emmaliene In reply to Heiteinah [2012-05-25 02:06:01 +0000 UTC]

The Hush Sound, Two Door Cinema Club, The Submarines, The Strokes, Metric, bands like that.

I don't know if my singing voice is considered decent, I just get a lot of leads in musicals.. but sometimes, musical theater actors really only sound good with that style of music

Heiteinah In reply to Emmaliene [2012-05-25 07:51:15 +0000 UTC]

Alright! I'll give them a try, but I do know the Strokes already. Good stuff!
