Description
Taken a few days before Tekkoshocon VII, where this crossplay debuted. I got SO much love as Roy, it was insane! One of the staff members gave me a giant, Armstrong-style hug and asked if I was a guy. (Apparently a TON of people thought I was a guy, which was a great compliment.
It was really weird having girls fangirl on me though, considering I'm a girl myself...)I had a ton of fun messing with people, considering I wore C.C. on the same day and no one recognized I was the same person. XD;
I'll upload some more pics of this outfit later, the ones taken at Tekkoshocon weren't from the best angles. X____x; *picky* We did have a BLAST at the Fullmetal Alchemist gathering though. :3

Wow, great Roy cosplay! Looks like you took a lot of extra measures with your make-up to look masculine, which improves an already great costume.

How did you pull off such a gorgeous convincing crossplay? I'm possibly going to AnimeNext as Lithuania and I must know your secrets?

Aw, thanks!
So, actually, I have a uber girly face and I had to play with makeup for a while to figure out what would work. (I'll never be "manly" and this'll be the closest I can get you, but here's my tips. ^^)
First, put on a TON of foundation. I put on a layer, let it dry, then added some more to my cheeks and whenever I need to hide blotchy skin. (Since you're not going to use blush as a crossplayer, it's even more important to have good skin, I think. XD)
Second, one of the most important things to do is to put a lot of foundation on your lips. I put on a few layers on my lips (it's harder to get foundation to stay there than on your skin, so I dabbed it on with a finger) until they more or less blended into my face.
Thirdly, (and this helps a GREAT deal), fill in your eyebrows with an eyeliner or eyebrow liner (they both work fine, imho.) I put eyeliner on, then smeared it into my eyebrow with my finger, then kept putting it on. I mainly made my brows thicker and a bit longer (pull it out toward the sides of your face.) It's amazing how much more boyish you'll look with this trick. XD
Other things you can do is to fill in the hallow of your cheeks (or a little behind the cheekbones) with a bronzer. I had some on and it helped a little, but I looked just as boyish without it, so I don't think it matters too much. Bronzer under your cheekbones should make your face seem less round and longer.
You can also shade the sides of your nose a little, but this always fails for me and I haven't gotten it to work yet. I just decided to deal with my real nose, and that worked out well too.
Also, eyeliner will help if you're a bishie-like character. I was a bit worried about wearing eyeliner as Roy, but he IS an anime character and the eyeliner made my eyes look more defined in pictures. As long as you don't put on mascara or draw attention to your eyelashes, eyeliner should be fine. 
I hope that helps! My god, this was a long comment. I'll shut up now. Lemme know if you'd like more tips. XD
