I dunno. I think both make-ups look pretty good.

[forgottenjester]

Coming from someone who's not in fandom I think both look good but I like the one on the left more.

And that's an interesting view of fandom. I guess all the people I follow who are into it are in strange pockets. Interesting.

[rivia]

I'm guessing the one on the left is an old one and the right is a newer one? At first glance I thought they both looked okay, but the more I look at it the more obvious how much more detailed the older one is. The copper patina looks so much more vibrant in the older one as well.

>Transgendered
What? That looks like a guy to me.

Also, I think if he merged the two styles, like the right neck design with the left face design, it'd be solid.

[vethica]

She's a trans woman.

[(Anonymous)]

Ok.

[(Anonymous)]

Well, they started out as male presenting, playing the role of a male-appearing automaton - and the role, as far as I know hasn't changed even though the person's gender identity is different now?

But they said somewhere that they basically don't care what people call them so I don't even know anymore. I don't pay a lot of attention to artists' personal lives.

[(Anonymous)]

That's not true anymore. The character is going to be becoming female too despite robots having genders being stupid.

I agree on the makeup. The last few have been bad.

[(Anonymous)]

Ah, alright. I was mostly commenting on the "looks like a guy" part and I was assuming the make-up was still from the time when the character was "male", but still, it's good to know. I'm not really up-to-date. But in general: Yes, Robots with genders is kind of stupid.

Might be best to choose a completely different costume+make-up in the end, though, but whatever.

[(Anonymous)]

I don't care about the makeup (or Bunny's decision to make Rabbit female) but I am concerned about the sound of the band changing since Bunny's decision.

OP

[(Anonymous)]

Me too a little, mostly because my favorite parts of the harmonies are quite often when Rabbit takes the low end like in Rex Marksley and I'm not sure it will continue to happen. Also, I hated Upgrade.

I think it's something that could work if handled really really well but I'm not sure I trust Bunny to handle it because of the hugbox of Tumblr. My husband keeps saying that David won't let her destroy the band over it but I'm not sure, especially with how much volume people agree with her on anything and crush any dissenters. I'm trying to remain hopeful but the half-assed looking make-ups aren't helping.

Re: OP

[(Anonymous)]

As someone who's done the really fancy makeup, it's really hard, and it can be really stressful/time consuming, so I can see where Bunny see where Bunny is coming from wrt trying out new things, to see what looks best.

As for the vocal part, once someone is past puberty (and thus past the chance to do puberty blockers), changing the voice (permanently) with hormones is impossible; and while there is a surgery that can be done to make a trans woman's vocal range higher, Bunny has said that she's terrified of surgery, so on that end, it should be fine?

OP

[(Anonymous)]

Oh, I know the voice won't change. My concern is that Bunny will be doing Rabbit's parts out of her best range and even if it sounds horrible everyone will tell her it's amazing, just like every time she does something that's not good.

Re: OP

[(Anonymous)]

Like the skits, and sketches and stuff? Because I doubt the singing voice is going to change, especially if tracks from the new album are anything to go by (things like Ghost Grinder on youtube and Rust With Me (?) on the engineerateer website).

Re: OP

[(Anonymous)]

It really depends on whether she will try to change her way of speaking/style of singing to appear more feminine in voice. But the voice itself won't change too much, not like with FtM trans people on hormones.

I remember Heather Alexander. I loved their music, but after transitioning, I couldn't really listen to the new stuff anymore because it was so strange hearing the exact same inflection and style of singing, only with a voice that didn't really sound like the old voice had. It was basically uncanny valley - voice edition.

[(Anonymous)]

What? That looks like a guy to me.

...I'm not sure how that can make someone not transgendered.

[(Anonymous)]

My thoughts exactly.

[insanenoodlyguy]

The Night Vale Fandom understands your pain, OP.

[forgottenjester]

At first when I read your secret I was like, "We do?" thinking how makeup could have a connection to Night Vale.

...But then I remembered the second part of the secret. So many sad faces.

[(Anonymous)]

Dude, you're last part.

Steampunk is a huge thing. Not everyone is on tumblr. Especially the old fen who are probably not taking this well. And there are a few jerks too. My favorite is how we "shouldn't expose the identity of a rapist" because it might hurt him. Even though he travels and is a known womanizer.*


*I'm talking about Professor Elemental. I'll provide the links later. But urrgg.

[(Anonymous)]

So... Links?

[(Anonymous)]

But that would take effort. It's much easier to just say something horrible about someone and leave it at that.
