They/Them | Elu/Ela/Ele Brazilian. I'm reading mainly mutant comics chronologically. I like to have fun and engage critically with what I read, it's fun. Most likely on the spectrum, I tend to post a lot I think

Fun fact about doing my own designs that I learned is how important the minor details are.

I keep thinking "the biggest part is the hardest and if I do that the whole illusion is basically sold."

Thats not the case. From turning from "oh" to "damm, okay" its in the details, they sell it

Overall my idea of blending the Phoenix look with the Marvel Girl mask came across okay but it can definitely be improved

Mutant Makeup Month - Phoenix

This is one of the designs I learned a lot from

I thought the gradiant and blending would be the hardest part, but its definitely the shaping. I did my best in 40 minutes, but I could definitely have used 40 more to have a great result.

My boss saying "this was all made with AI"

Waking up in 5h to do my makeup for work in 8h...

I did it btw.
It was one of the best powerpoints presentstions I've ever seen

With custom handbuild themes, a lot of techniques that I invented for that, a shit ton of research.

And I got like a C+
No explanation on why btw

I once spent like 2 hours trying to do a moving paralax effect for the cover of my power point presentstion in high school

I really liked power point and if I could I wanted to work just making powerpoints

In retrospect that was insane

Once I had to edit a video for a class

But my pc was bad enough that I couldnt really do what I wanted.

So I did the only logical thing
And animated each frame of the video individually in powerpoint
Then I took a screenshot of each frame and put it in the editor

I kinda animated a presentation

If I didnt know it was a classic I would have given up on it a good while a go

I'm starting to really get into Planetary (Im 10 issues deep)

Ellie 👻 @elliecesa.bsky.social · 2d

I feel like planetary is trying to say something and I havent caught what it is yet

Ellie 👻 @elliecesa.bsky.social · 2d

Is Planeterry supposed to be funny?
Because I feel like its trying but the humor just doesnt do anything for me

Ellie 👻 @elliecesa.bsky.social · 3d

I feel like to understand me you just need to know that several times Ive tried learning to program games

I always get as far as building Pong, and I cant figure out the math for the ball bouncing
And I refuse to look it up because thats not real "learning"
Then I give up completely

Guys I think science might be the future! :o

Ellie 👻 @elliecesa.bsky.social · 3d

Not me getting into chemistry at 25

I blame Watchmen and the pressure at work

Ellie 👻 @elliecesa.bsky.social · 4d

Had the worst nightmare of my life
It was a movie it was recursive, we didnt knownwhere it ended and where it began and there was a lot of gore, but especifically animal gore it was horrendous

I'll keep it a buck, very "loud" makeup is insane for audience retention.

As a cashier I'm trying to make the person at least look at me, and since I started this project the ones who don't look at me the entire time are rare.

Ellie 👻 @elliecesa.bsky.social · 4d

The effect is maybe better shown in video.

This is also the makeup after 8h of work so it's no at it's peak too

Mutant Makeup Month - Bling!

So, I actually wasn't supposed to do Bling! because I couldn't find a great look for her.
Well, today there was a themed Saturday at work with the theme of Jewels.

I already did Emma Frost so I had to make a look for Bling! and it's one of my favorite looks I've done

If I had a nickel for every person I pushed more to the left I would have like a couple dollars.
It isn't that hard
