redfruitwhiteseeds asked you: 16 & 18

16: Character you’ve hated most? From what game?

Oh gosh.  I almost never actively hate characters?  I mostly notice when I’m annoyed by a character.  I think I’d have to give that honor, weirdly enough, to Toad from Mario Kart.  That quick little bastard zooming in stealing my wins at the last second …. rrrrgghh ….

18: A game you wish your friends knew about?

I feel like I’m almost never up on the most current games, but there’s so many that I play that I don’t think most of my friends do/did and I wish they would get interested in?  Grandia II is the first one that springs to mind, which, other than the absolutely horrendous voice acting, is one of the most fun RPGs I’ve ever played purely from a gameplay standpoint (the story was pretty simplistic to the point of being somewhat boring, but it had its interesting points.)  The Devil May Cry series is another.  I wish that there was a better fandom in general for DMC.  Nothing else is leaping to mind, though …

19: Which game do you think deserves a revival?

SILENT HILL 2, oh motherfuck would somebody PLEASE JUST REMAKE SILENT HILL 2 WITH CURRENT GRAPHICS.  Don’t change anything else about it.  Just give me SH2 gameplay with the horrifying throbbing realism of the PS3 and surround sound.  I’d be on the floor sobbing three minutes into the fucking apartment building.

1: Do you try to stay away from walkthroughs?

Not really.  I will play the game on my own for as long as it’s fun and not frustrating me, but I will seek out a walkthrough if I’m not sure what to do next.  Since most of the ‘real’ games I play are RPGs, 99% of the time I’m using a walkthrough to find an event trigger rather than to solve a puzzle anyway.

3: Best game you’ve ever played?

Oh man, definitely gonna hand this one to Okami.  it’s basically Legend of Zelda in overall mechanics, but with a theme of restoration - there is no princess in a castle to save, no end objective besides rescuing the land of Nippon from the evil besieging it.  The Celestial Brush makes both combat and world travel fun.  Getting all the little Easter eggs and hidden goodies is a blast; each new power makes you want to go back to the places you’ve already been to try them out.  And the story, oh man, especially the ending - I won’t spoil you, but I actually cried, it’s just that damn beautiful.

8: Best soundtrack?

Not sure how many people will have heard of this, since it was released towards the end of the PS1’s run, but Chrono Cross, the semi-sequel to Chrono Trigger, has a simply mind-blowingly beautiful orchestral soundtrack. I never played Chrono Trigger, so I didn’t understand 80% of what was going on in Chrono Cross, but the music was what got me to play it in the first place.  There’s one particular battle where this heartbreaking track was playing and it was the hardest battle of the whole game (for me) but I didn’t want it to end because of the music.  Here’s a playlist of the tracks, if you want to listen!

7: A game you’ll never forget?

I spent way too much time thinking about this answer, but I think I’ll have to go with Final Fantasy 9 here.  It’s just a classic fantasy tale, but it’s literally everything I ever wanted out of an RPG game in terms of scope, story, and characters, and the gameplay is interesting and challenging without making me want to cry on the floor with frustration.

Don’t know why I still haven’t finished it, but that’s probably why I come back again and again (after losing my data over and over), because I love it so much.

How to Make Vantas Horns

okay so as an apology for the last tutorial I made, I promised myself I’d make a real tutorial for making Karkat’s horns.  It is literally the easiest thing you will ever, ever do.  It’s easier than the clay mug you made your mom in 3rd grade for Mother’s Day but it ended up being an ashtray because the sides wouldn’t stay upright.  Seriously.  They’re that easy.

1. Take two lumps of model magic and shape them into Karkat’s horns.  The lumps of clay should fit in the palm of your hand, no bigger, and they should be rolled into a shape somewhere between a cylinder and a cone - wider on the bottom and narrower on the top but not pointed.  Give them a slight curve as you see fit.  Ideally they will be mirror images of each other.
2. Get some floral or copper wire that is thick enough to hold a shape but thin enough to bend with your hands and cut a length of between 4 and 6 inches.  Shape it into a widening spiral/coil, leaving a length of about .75 inches pointing straight up from the coil. Shove this end into the bottom of your horn so it looks like this (picture in link).
3. Put the horns in a tupperware container with the edge of the lid cracked open and let them dry.  Give it at least 2 days and ideally a week.  You can also leave them to open-air dry but putting them in a container will make them less likely to crack as they dry.
4. Coat the horns in modgepodge once they’ve dried.  It’s a nice primer and will help hide any small cracks that have appeared.
5. Paint the horns with acrylic paint.  For the best gradient look, start with yellow, then add orange, then add red (the yellow in particular will always be overwhelmed by darker colors, so be careful). Let dry.

And viola!  Karkat horns. The wire spiral under the horns will let you literally screw them into the wefts of your wig, and you can secure them with a bobby pin to keep them from twisting.

Toldja it was easy.

Wow okay I have really let my inbox pile up. (Mass Thank You!)

I’ve had a really rough day today, tumblr.  And I was going back into my inbox because there is a particular meme I wanted to (finally) answer and I keep scrolling past all of the sweetest messages from people telling me how much they love my cosplay - Karkat in particular - and it’s just really brightening my evening.

I want to thank each and every one of you because it just means so much to me.

I’ve been cosplaying Karkat for about 18 months now and I’ve had so much fun every time I’ve donned that costume.  I’ve gotten to perform 4 times on panels as him and goof off with friends, do private photoshoots and run around cons; he’s hilarious and adorable (adorabloodthirsty, even), and I’m really glad you have all enjoyed my portrayal of him as much as I’ve enjoyed portraying him.

So thank you to every one of you I’ve tagged here and to all the anonymous people who have told me the same; you’re all beautiful, and I hope you have a lovely night!

YOU MEAN THE ONE BASED ON THIS AWESOME ART BY SYBLATORTUE???

by the way if you don’t follow Syb you should fix that.  Just saying.

Anyway, yes, I’ve read that fic!  here’s a link for everyone else =D
