When I did Romulan makeup for my sis, I just painted on the forehead ridges with shades of eyeshadow. Everyone thought they were sculpted, just shaded like a graphic art. Also HAVE FUN 😀 I wanna go too!

!!!! That’s a really good idea! I might have to test that out later this evening (my eyeshadow/makeup stash in general is pretty limited — I powdered my face in green eyeshadow on Halloween while chanting I should’ve thought this through more — I maaaay be able to make it work though!)
AND I’LL TRYYY this is going to be my very first con ever and I’m pretty nervous

*drags you to new mexico for the weekend*

If you can just shade the green or whatever your base makeup is slightly lighter and slightly darker, you’ve got it made 😀 Try mixing colors? I have a ton of different eyeshadows and makeups because I am slightly insane and I love doing alien makeup…but yeah it just takes three shades to make a ridge. One light, one dark, one medium.

AHHH I WISH I COULD GO. I’m a lot farther than Amarillo though. But yeee first cons are exciting! My first was a tiny con with no famous guests, and I only made it to one panel, but I loved it anyway.
