can’t really remember why I started on this but I know it’s been fucking hours and hours and I’ve done so many ridiculous things along the way and at some point this stopped being about making a silly image for whatever stupid argument I was planning to pretend to rope someone into.
at some point I started to develop a really deep empathy with the subject. I thought about my worst days of dysphoria and the fucked up mornings where I did something wrong and my makeup just got all fucked up and I’d have a panic attack and spiral the fuck out and not even make it to work and I started to feel a real duty to be respectful and sincere in this work.
Like. I’m not entirely sure it was necessary but I broke thru security on an fucking instagram filter site just I could use their particular shitty tools.
I got lost. In. The sauce.
Anyway what do you think of the makeover? I think the result is alright.
Here’s the before if you can do better 
You made him into a baby dressed as shrek for halloween
lmao fuck I won’t be unseeing that.
I think the picture looks cuter before. There is a sad innocence in his eyes. I wanna give him a hug and tell him everythings going to be ok (even if its a lie)
I would do anything for him in the before. Like spend ten hours giving him a makeover just because.
like why would I go through all that but still insist to myself on doing everything as destructively as possible so the mistakes and badness are baked in nice and deep.
