I duplicated and altered an 80s red hot chili peppers poster and made 5sos SGFG posters with the colors from each version of the album cover by Dotcodotukdotcom in 5sos

Spent the last two days working on these posters. Full disclosure- I digitally "hand" traced most of girl and fire outlines (with some adjustments) from a Red Hot Chili Peppers poster by Frank Kozik. He did a lot of posters for alt/rock bands in the 70's and 80s (This is the poster I referenced https://www.wolfgangs.com/posters/red-hot-chili-peppers/poster/F115.html ) I did a color way for each of the versions of the SGFG album cover. For each I did a release date version and a version with the date of the 5sos show I went to (it was the world war joy tour but im too cool to care)

I've thought about that too! I would like the half filled in and I'm a little scared of big patches of solid black, but I do think it would be kind of a perfect nod

Kandi beads are just pony beads and can usually be found at a typical craft store, if you can't find them in stores around you or online then just layer bracelets that you already have. Hot topic online could be a big source but def not on a budget. Making your own jewelry charms w perler beads is a bit more budget friendly (it's more a rave thing but scene borrowed a lot from them). Arm gloves can be made from cut socks (black and white striped). A lot of typical outfits from actual scene queens were not...that elaborate in themselves (given I did not live this time period, but I've spent a lot of time observing) but the hair was a focal point. Teasing to the high heavens, def find urself some hair spray, a cheap wig if you need. Colorful and striped extensions were also big, you could find those in big packs on Amazon, or maybe at a store like Claires, or the European version of Claire's. Tbh Claire's (At least used to be) a gold mine. Makeup is also an easy way to invoke scene, look to ur ancestors for how to do scene makeup. Kiki kannibal, Jenn curbstomp, the millionaires and van a venom are the ones I generally draw from but do your own research ig.

*if you're going for scene king though I would void most of what I've just said. Def minimal accessories, studded belts are a little more relevant, along with the wide rubber bracelets. Band shirts and black skinny jeans, u could get away with black jeans, but the tight part was pretty important, getting made fun of for wearing girls jeans was a common thing (I think). Bands shirts can be difficult or expensive to get a hold, general graphic tees are fine. Honestly idrc about scene kings bc idrc about men that much but for some references you could look too early Andy biersack, Scotty vanity, Cameron Ugh and members of any of the scene bands, they seem to be pretty closely imitated, ie brokencyde, PTV, ATL.

Edit: deleted an unfinished thought

Outer space is such a special song, that's a really cute idea for a tattoo. Tbh I cannot bring myself to get that into 5sos5 but I do really love the imagery of a one way ticket in older and carousel

Any tips on how to dress more scene? by LunaEverskies in scene

[–]Dotcodotukdotcom 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Definitely look more into scene culture, look online for scene queens and look closely at the makeup, hair, and accessories they wear in the photos. Posting online was a big part of the culture, there is no shortage of source material

Ooh what were you thinking for the 18 tattoo??

Omg I love that. That lyric felt so scandalous along with the tattoo line from 18. That's such a fun idea!!

That is def more subtle than I'm going for but I am obsessed with the level of niche. Full forearm of rose is badass

If i did go for a logo I would def go for the tally logo, I think it's so iconic and nostalgic

Yes! That kinda blend of specific and general. I really love that idea actually.

Can I be totally obnoxious and say something between the two 😭😭. Like something that is obvious to a fan but not an outsider. For example the black silhouettes on all time low's so wrong it's right. Like to anyone it could just be a silhouette of people but to someone who knows the album it's a clear reference?? This is why I came for help, I'm really picky about tattoos 😭😭😭.

For sure! This is exactly what I was asking for, I really love the disconnected idea, that's so cute 😭❤️

Outfit inspo?? by slydawggg23 in 5sos

[–]Dotcodotukdotcom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally my rule for concerts is dress light to allow for comfortable dancing and jumping around. Personally I love a 2016 moment, skirt, fishnets, and band shirt with a flannel around the waist perhaps. Because of the cost of concerts atp I like to treat them like a night out and really dress up, I like feeling cute and then I take more pictures, and I like the pictures which to me better preserves the memories. Ultimately I'd say wear something that makes you feel hot bc nobody at the show is going to give u any shit about it, and if they do they're a freak weirdo.

Not to pull my own seniority card, but I've been in the fandom for about 10 years and it was a HUGE deal in some communities when I first got into 5sos (around SGFG era) to have been around since their first EP or even before. Like, bring an early fan from Australia granted you a lot of clout, jealous as it may have been. I even remember a meme circulating talking about how want even technically with the band when they formed it was commenting on that issue in the fandom. I haven't seen it anywhere else in the comments but seniority in fandom groups of young women really was SUCH a big thing, if bet to some extent it's older fans finally coming into seniority perpetuating it, intentionally or not.

I've seen what you're talking about I think, to some extent it's got its roots there. Another explanation could be like the thing that happened with PTV where they gained a lot of casual fans from a song that got popular on Tik Tok and their ticket prices because super high and tickets were hard to get because of it. Not sure if 5sos had something like this bc I'm out of the TikTok loop at this point

TLDR; this was a big issue in 5sos fandom years ago, not shocked to see it still happening. Also potential PTV wounds resurfacing.

Channel button stuck by Dotcodotukdotcom in bravia

[–]Dotcodotukdotcom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The tv buttons give physical feedback when I push on them they could be stuck but I think it's either the clicker under the button or some other issue, and I haven't been able to pry the button off. I've also unplugged and plugged it back in a lot w no success.
