hey everybody! ami here
and no i didnt actually turn green!
this is just a makeup test
becaaaaause
im going to be playing melfaba in the rhs production of villainous next month!
needless to say i am super excited
i dont know the exact showtimes yet but ill let you know when i do
also if you want to see how i achieved this look
i posted a tutorial on my youtube channel
which you can watch right here!
i hope you enjoy both it and the play :D

[ICly the link leads to a video tutorial, which is about 10 minutes long. It also features a little sneak preview at the end: Ami singing the first part of "No Good Deed" in her room, candelit and decorated with all sorts of spooky paraphernalia for what's actually a pretty neat effect! Even if it ... does make it kind of hard to see the makeup during that part.]

[SHUCKS......]

you really think so?
i was worried about the colors clashing

so what if clashes a little
don’t they all reject her just because she looks different?
i think it fits

haha yeah
thats true!
i guess it is thematically appropriate

[it's also one of her real-life fears, of course. it's been over a month, but even non-Retrospectres still notice her horns on the regular, and it's not easy to ignore all the weird looks and hushed giggles she gets. wouldn't it be super easy to demonize someone with horns like a demon? with strange, unearthly powers? wouldn't it be easy to dehumanize someone who's, quite literally, becoming less and less human? even a lot of her friends on the app joke and jape about her appearance, sometimes.]

fortunately theres no real life wizard to throw me under the bus huh :p

well that’s one thing you’ve got on malphaba
you’ve got people who wouldn’t let the wizard get away with it

ah yes this is also true
thank you

[that's right. she has many good and true friends she can count on!]

hey i’m just stating the facts

you guys are gonna be great
it's opening soon, right?

its a little ways off yet
but look for updates toward the start of may!
it should be the first or second week i think
