(I just come to tumblr to share my cosplays anymore…. i ve lost as a tumblr queen)

anyway TEAM VALOR YASSSS!!!
RED RED RED BURRRRRN
no jk xD love all teams but spark is the most precious leader ever !
AS you can see I m cosplaying my teamleader candela ♡ (werd sie auf der gamescom tragen trifft man sich? :))

I nearly finished candela and THEN my laat sewing machine needle broke… skkaksksw so i gotta wait till Monday to finish her Dx

and thrn i ll start with spark! a friend of mine (no i didnt FORCE him to cosplay with me what are you saying pfff )

however, here is a wip! are there any other candela cosplayers on here?
if you have a question ASK ME I LL HELP YOU OUT SOMEHOW (only if you r on team valor tho. JUST KIDDING XD ♡)
i also have question!
as you can see i m too pale (for life) for candela. i sometimes really feel weird to put on darker make up for darker skinned character but at the same timr i dont wanna “white-shame” a character
but Then cosplay is for everyone xD
I M A CONFUSED POTATO
(my question was: darker make up yes or no?)

(if you are wondering what i still wanna add:
her weird… jacket bracelets… sleeve ends…. idk how her outfit works ok dun judge me.
i d want to add voltres to the back!
and i wanna detail the shoes a bit ♡)

hope you like my wip ♡
NOW TAKE OVER THAT GYM !

I’m sure others have sent you messages on this but please please don’t ever do dark makeup even for a cosplay. Blackface is serious business and you will be just as recognizable in your natural skin tone. @brichibi might be able to elaborate a little, if she has time.

Agreed. Do not darken your skin. At all. You will end up doing more harm than good that way. Just be your natural, wonderful self. You are showing love for the character, there’s no “shame” in it, but it definitely will become an issue if you paint your skin in any way. 

I can go on and on about the reasons why not to do it, actually, I have. If you’re still not sure, please give it a read :)

The cosplay looks great the way it is.
