Dreamcast: US Rehearsal Alts Edition

Hey y'all! A while back someone had asked me to make a dreamcast of rehearsal alts who hadn't yet debuted. I really enjoyed working on that, and now with Alizé Cruz joining the Boleyn Tour I thought it would be fun to do another in that vein. I realized exactly ten US-based rehearsal alts hadn't ever done an on-board contract, so for simplicity's sake I just did a US-style cast with those 10. I also generally factored in the covers that each rehearsal alt prioritized during their time with NCL.

Aragon: Jaelle Laguerre Boleyn: Chelsea Lorraine Wargo Seymour: Alyssa Gianetti Cleves: Adrianna Glover Howard: Kate Zulauf Parr: Jasmine M. Smith Alt A/B/S, DC: Kristina Walz Alt A/C/H: Emily Rose Lyons Alt B/S/P: Lois Ellise Alt C/H/P: Brooke Aneece

IRL Sixsona Designs Pt. 2: Makeup Edition

Hey y'all! This is second in a series of a few extra sixsona posts that @lightleckrereins and I are doing this week. The first post is here, showing the real-life vinyl inspirations we used!

This time around, I'm doing yet another hypothetical: what makeup would be used for each sixsona design!! My list of makeup recommendations for Six cosplayers is probably the post I'm second-most proud of (after sixsonas ofc). When I was initially working on that I kept seeing makeup that would be perfect for some of our sixsona designs, so because I have absolutely zero chill of course I had to figure out the full makeup plots for each.

The basic rules were - one glitter - one eyeshadow palette - and two additional products to fill in any gaps, as needed (this included fun stuff like an extra glitter or liquid liner, but also practical things like additional eyeshadow shades when needed or a liquid base for more sheer colors)

White (swing): Colourpop palette in Cloud 9, NYX Metallic Glitter in Lumi-Lite, Danessa Myricks Colorfix Matte in Lift, Urban Decay Moondust Liquid Eyeliner in Pyro

Yellow (A/B): Nicka K Pop Neon Palette in Oh Honey, With Love Pressed Glitter in Pineapple, MAC Dazzleshadow in It's All About Shine, Glisten Cosmetics wet liner in Bananas Cream (A/S): Beauty Bay (42), NYX Ultimate Glow Shots in Come Thru Coconut, Colourpop Super Shock Shadow in 3rd St, Colourpop Super Shock Shadow in In Harmony Bronze (A/C): BPerfect Cosmetics in Compass of Creativity North Skintones, Lemonhead Spacepaste in Dirty Penny, Haus Labs Hy-Power Pigment Paint in Copper Shimmer, MAC Dazzleshadow Extreme in Objet D' Art

Mint (B/S): Nicka K Pop Neon Palette in Lucky Charm, With Love Pressed Glitter in Mint, Haus Labs Hy-Power Pigment Paint in Mint Matte, Colourpop Super Shock Shadow in Life Coach Coral (B/H): Kimchi Chic Palette in Citrus Queen, Slayfire Cosmetics in Peaches & Scream, Danessa Myricks Colorfix Matte in Phoenix, Glisten Cosmetics wet liner in Rose Quartz Emerald/peacock (B/P): Cozzette Beauty Palette in Blue-Green, Designer Dust Co in Water Country Flakes, Danessa Myricks Colorfix Metallics in Firework, MAC Eye Shadow in Carbon

Amber (S/C): Colourpop in Rock On, Danessa Myricks Infinite Chrome Flakes in Hot Lava, Danessa Myricks Colorfix Liquid Metals in Hot Fire, Lemonhead Spacejam in Rainbow Road Peach (S/H): Colourpop in Sweet Talk, Lemonhead Spacepaste in Mulholland, MAC Dazzleshadow Extreme in Kiss of Klimt, MAC Eye Shadow in Shell Light blue (S/P): Colourpop in Blue Velvet, Designer Dust Co in Carolina Bae Micro, Danessa Myricks Colorfix Foils in Mermaid, Colourpop Super Shock Shadow in Ice Dream

Magenta (C/H): Beauty Bay in Berries (16), Designer Dust Co in Bubblegum Bae Micro, Colourpop Super Shock Shadow in Roy G. Biv, MAC Eye Shadow in If It Ain't Baroque Maroon (C/P): Juvia's Place in The Berries, Lemonhead Spacepaste in Wine Safari, MAC Pigment in Gold, Glisten Cosmetics wet liner in Bloody Mary Lavender (H/P): Juvia's Place in The Violets, Barry M Biodegradable Body Glitter in Hypnotic, MAC Dazzleshadow in It's All About Shine, Glisten Cosmetics wet liner in Amethyst

Some credit info: Designs for white, yellow, cream, mint, amber, peach, magenta, maroon, lavender + all sixsona art featured here by @lightleckrereins. Original designs for bronze, coral, emerald/peacock, and light blue are mine. I did most of the sourcing work for the makeup, but Sofia created the inspiration + made final decisions on the makeup for all her designs.

Sixsona designs can actually be made irl part 1

The whole project started when I made this post where I was trying to hypothesize what new color could be chosen for a fifth alt costume (yes fifth this was before silver swing existed) that worked with the rest. A few months later we started seeing silver previews, but those were all monochrome. And since we didn't know the color or that it was a swing costume, or that alternates would have principal costumes I began assigning the vinyl on that post to the first cover combos that didn't have an alt costume designed for them already. Half of those colors didn't make it to the list for various reasons so I had to find more. For that post I aimed for widely available textile holo vinyl colors, but once I expanded I had to go into rarer colors and some were not even meant as textiles.

And then. Between me figuring out the sixsona colors and now. The most commonly available textile holo vinyl (which includes some of the six stage vinyls) expanded its color range and suddenly I had textile holo for most colors. Currently only coral and magenta are not textile but instead craft vinyls. The rest you could buy them and make a costume no problem.

And its so wild to see them together @sixcostumerefs and I have made a point of creating designs that could be made in real life and to just see design and vinyl side by side feels crazy. I should look for sequins too tbh.

Bronze, coral, emerald and blue were designed by @sixcostumerefs

Dreamcast: Future Shows (Aline Mayagoitia Edition)

The other day I continued my trend of dream casting soon-to-be-leaving Six actors in shows I’d like to see them in in the future. However…I think any long-time readers of my blog will know that seeing Aline in Six has meant the world to both @lightleckrereins and I, and narrowing it down to just one show/role we’d most like to see her in out of our long af list was HARD. So, as a farewell to Aline…we decided to post a few of our biggest dreamcasts for her.

Lempicka as Tamara de Lempicka

Moulin Rouge! as Arabia/understudy Satine

Anastasia el Musical as singer swing/understudy Anya and Lily

Gatsby as Myrtle

Hamilton as standby Schuyler sister (don’t ask us to choose just one)

Mentiras el Musical as Daniela or Yuri

Dreamcast: Future Shows (Boleyn Tour)

A few years back I’d made a post of the shows I’d most like to see each of the Broadway alts join when they left Six. I’ve made one for just about every cast since, and this time it’s the Boleyn Tour cast’s turn!! (And keep an eye out for a special edition of this in a few days…). So without further ado….

Gerianne Pérez: On Your Feet! as Gloria Estefan

Zan Berube: Mamma Mia! as Sophie Sheridan

Amina Faye: Hamilton as standby Schuyler sisters

Terica Marie: The Wiz as Evillene

Aline Mayagoitia: Moulin Rouge! as Arabia, understudy Satine

Sydney Parra: Jesus Christ Superstar as Mary Magdalene

Cecilia Snow: Shucked as Storyteller 1

Taylor Pearlstein: Hadestown as swing, understudy Eurydice/Fates

Jana Larell Glover: MJ as swing, understudy Kate/Katherine Jackson

Per usual, I only included actors who are imminently leaving the show. Since Adriana Scalice, Kelly Denice Taylor, and Aryn Bohannon are continuing, I didn’t include them in this post. The exception this time was Jana Larell Glover, purely because I’d been really wanting to include MJ for her prior to her being announced for Broadway.

Freaking love these, and so much fun to see someone else interpret my designs, especially with all of @lightleckrereins' thoughtfulness + attention to detail

(also, sneak peek of bronze updates)

Its sixsona season!!

Main variations edition (cleves tomorrow)

So incredibly proud of this lot. I am aware it is my art but it feels so wild to see this designs in something that has become in a way very iconic for six.

Pulled the numbers on what colleges were most common for the US/Can actors. This is mostly taken from the Wiki. May be missing some actors/colleges. I generally tried to only count it when an actor actually got a degree in the performing arts, but it's possible that some of these still went to college for something else. I'll probably do this for the UK eventually, too.

5 University of Michigan (Bre Jackson, Storm Lever, Zan Berube, Cydney Clark, Aline Mayagoitia) AMDA (Gabbi Mack, Brittney Mack, Didi Romero, Joy N Woods, Brennyn Lark. Leandra Ellis-Gaston also attended AMDA LA, but that's a different program)

4 Cal State - Fullerton (Ellie Wyman, Abigail Sparrow, Lauren Mariasoosay, Taylor Sage Evans) Columbia College (Courtney Mack, Megan Leung, Mallory Maedke, Shantel Cribbs) Sheridan College (Julia Pulo, Elysia Cruz, Hailey Alexis Lewis, Julia McLellan)

3 Belmont (Wesley Carpenter, Sierra Fermin, Carlina Parker) Boston Conservatory at Berklee (Kennedy Monica Carsterns, Gabriela Francesca Carrillo, Aryn Bohannon. Honorary mention of Hien, from the non-replica Hungarian cast) Ithaca College (Olivia Donalson, Sydney Parra, Audrey Fisher) Montclair State University (Gianna Grosso, Amaya White, Kristina Walz) NYU (Gerianne Pérez, Princess Victomé, Guilia Marolda) Penn State (Jasmine Forsberg, Amina Faye, Jessie Davidson) TXST (Bella Coppola, Anna Uzele, Adriana Scalice)

2 Ball State University (Terica Marie, Keirsten Hodgens) Baldwin Wallace University (Keri Rene Fuller, Shelby Griswold) BYU (Emily Rose Lyons, Channing Weir) Emerson College (Kathryn Kilger, Erin Ramirez) Elon University (Ruby Gibbs, Nasia Thomas) Fullerton College (Haley Izurieta, Lauren Mariasoosay) Indiana University (Abby Mueller, Caroline Siegrist) Pace University (Aja Simone Baitey, Aubrey Matalon) Rider University (Casey Esbin, Jessie Bodner) Shenandoah University (Kelsee Kimmel, Willow Dougherty) Temple University (Alana M Robinson, Chelsea Lorraine Wargo)

I'm alive. And I'm here with an update.

Final haircolors for the game update. I swear no more changes this time. I said recently that I was doing all four options in the hair dilemma. But then I started thinking and I realised there were gaps I didn't love particularly in blonde. So after some tests I landed in two potential hair colors. After some thinking I realised if I cut the alt ponytails that go over the shoulder I could fit a full new color because a color takes about 450 layers atm and the ponytalis take about 600 (might have figured out a way to keep those but make no promises). And then I bounced between potential colors for a week before realising the new dark brown is close enough to current dark brown that I can keep only one. So final list of hair colors for the six game:

Black, dark brown, medium brown, light brown, ash brown, dark blonde, ash blonde, light blonde, strawberry, auburn, ginger.
