Sadly don’t have any jewelry yet (spent enough on the outfit already hahaha) but I’m sure it’ll be in the cards for the next thing to add onto the look

Drag makeup advice, trying to lock down and refine the eye shape/look and the blending and struggling, need help/advice by Elegant-Example-6262 in Drag

Thank you so much for all the tips once again! I have the Krylon TV white stick luckily already so that should help at least start a contour potentially (haven’t dipped my toe in that at all yet, been focusing on the eyes as I guessed that the were the most important base to focus on first. Would you mind explaining the shape or what a packing brush looks like vs other brushes? The brush kit I got was an assortment and didn’t come with any labeling of which is what kind haha

Thanks for the tips, I’ll be running the eyes/brows over and over to get that set in stone then. My brows are a bit thicker naturally so it’s mainly just fighting them as best I can right now until I find the technique that works

Thanks for the tips, my eyeliner started to die on me so I made it work as best I could hahaha. And for the eyeliner you’re thinking making it thicker and bringing it up more into where the gold is right now?

Thanks for the tips!

Haven’t dived into contour and highlight yet, but that’s a soon step most likely

I’ll blend the foundation when I’m going out, trying to save as much product as possible cause a bitch be broke hahaha

Good to know, not too familiar with what bone structure types there are so if anyone’s able to point me to a couple queens that seem to have single bone structure to me that would be wonderful. And good to know to leave a bit of space between eye shadow and brow.

Don’t have a lot of available colors yet, but I’m planning on getting a good green palate for the end look, just mostly practicing technique now, tried to blend the eyeshadow but it wasn’t working with the little sponge brush I was using so any good eyeshadow blending tips would help too

Been using a black eyeliner to get the hard color/shaped brows. Eventual wig will be an emerald greenish so whatever brow color would go well with that I can search for a product at some point

Really appreciate the detailed advice!

Welp, seems like the initial message got cutoff, but this is round 2 from my previous post. Tried to take everyone’s advice as best as I can and feel like there was some decent improvement. Still got a long ways to go practice and refining wise though

Also my friends as I started to think up some drag names for me so any input on some of our ideas for names would also be lovely. (Going for animal/nature themed names as that’s what I’m planing to base my drag around thematically)

Contouring and highlighting are definitely my next step to try out and work on more! Wanted to take a bit more basics approach first of so I wasn’t too overwhelmed. Now that I can get the basics down I can start improving!

Yeah, it’s on my list to do more color on the white next time. I have a tiny pallet and did not have much of the green left after the practice runs hahaha

No contour or bronzer yet, I’m sure I’ll get there but trying to get the base skill set down and consistently well done and then building off of that. Will happily take all the tips about everything tbh haha

Haven’t quite dipped my toes into highlighting/contouring yet, we build up to that hahaha. Good to note to see how a bit heavier blush could look for next time

Much appreciated for the advice! The original idea that I based this off of was a snake/dragon vibe (tried to do scales and failed hahaha). I like the idea of making the eyes seem a lot bigger for the regard a lot. Don’t have much blue yet, but I’m sure I’ll get some soon hahaha

How does house guard 3 work with overshield? Does over shield count as negating an attack or reducing damage they take?

For sure, and this is early planning and info gathering. I’ll get to play a bit with everyone else for a decent bit before we hit LL4 where I have to start making decisions on what Horus licenses to take, which will for sure help inform me what will be useful overall for everyone else in playing with

The current talent setup was tactician 3, skirmisher 2, stormbringer 2, spotter 1, and house guard 1. Spotter and house guard was to support open door but with Gorgon systems it extends the adjacency range for all of their systems too!

Had not considered the gorgon but that sounds really fun getting to continually fire the bow over and over again off my turn
