The "Could I Pass One Day" Thread - Part 2

[DeeperThanSwords]

*deep breath* Here goes:

Here is me, pre-everything, just using make-up, a binder, and a packer. I was alone, so couldn't get a full-length, but I hope you can piece together the pics and give me some feedback.

Starting point, no make-up, no anything.


Binder.


Binder and 2 different t-shirts.



Packer in jeans, first at a short distance, then closer up (with frustrating 'spare tire').



And finally, the face (after using tutorial).


So, what do you think? Is there hope for me?

@ cori- I like those jeans on you! Look at your booty and hips! get it girl!
@ Saffron- your face is so pretty!
@ Silly - you look so perty without makeup, so natural! but I like you as a fishy, too. cute!

You're a total dude already!

[DeeperThanSwords]

I like you, you can stay!     

I need to try some more stuff (like seeing if I can make it work without the facial hair/different facial hair/different hair, but I'm encouraged by the initial result.

I'm still waiting for doctors to let me start HRT so right now I know I don't pass, specially for my body. I think my face is a good start even being 29. What do you think? Please be sincere.

You look very pretty, HRT will bring you along way. You look like one of my cis-females friends who I think she's absolutely gorgeous.

Paige, Silly and Cori you all look really good too!

So it could just be the hair, but in your pic without makeup, you really look like heather alexander (an awesome musician!). He is now Alexander James Adams and I think he looks incredibly male. That last pic of yours looks amazing. I think you will do well on t!

Thank you! That's an interesting coincidence, Alexander is my surname!

My first time over here checking out the pics you ladies put up and didn't plan on commenting but just had to say wow...you're beautiful.

Agreed! Flawless honey!

At first I only saw this picture and I was thinking that you was MTF, then I read your post  so I think you'll do fine 

[silly by the seashore]

You're trying to get back at me for that "don't break a hip" comment, aren't you?   

[DeeperThanSwords]

Haha, aww thanks!

I'm now thinking of doing my full 'woman' make-up, just to compare it with the male make-up. I reckon it'll be interesting.

I'll always be six years older than you!

I need some real constructive criticism and some honest opinions about how masculine or feminine I look now, and what features you see in my face that help me, and what features would hurt me. I don't really want to post any body shots yet cause Im overweight and I plan on loosing a lot of weight in the next 6 months so i can fit into something attractive. I have had no hrt at all or anything else done in this photo period. I had only waxed my eyebrows a little and shaved close and no makeup or anything at all.

I have my baby blanket wrapped around me for extra cuteness though

What can i do to improve my looks being more feminine without hrt at the moment, besides makeup, anyone have any suggestions? I will be growing my hair out long again but it will take a while I am sure. What i really need to know is "will I make a cute girl"? Its very hard to make a mental image of myself but people can see better what i can't see in my own self.

Honesty will be very helpful to me at this point.

[MaidofOrleans]

Agreed! Flawless honey!

You guys are too sweet! 

I just wish I saw the same person you all do when I looked in the mirror.

[AlexisB]

@Shawn I think your chin is pretty round

well if you ever need reassurance just look at all those posts!
You're beautiful and you should know it, don't sell yourself short!

You have a rounded face and fairly soft features, and your eyes & smile have a gentleness to them that will serve you well. I'd say grow & style your hair (or get a good hairpiece), something that will frame the face a bit. I'd also say to use make-up to lenthen your eyelashes and shape your eyebrows.

@Shawn Sunshine: I have to agree with DeeperThanSwords. Your face is "soft" as is, and your smile is beautiful. With a good hair cut (now or after it grows), it'll just bring out those features even more. Make-up will help too, in which it'll highlight the features you have going for you (cheeks, lips, eyes), and hide/detract from what little shadow shows. Also, I'm not sure if it is the lighting, but it appears your eyebrows are "thinned" near the end. If so, I have the same problem - strong and dark in person; nearly non-existent in photos. But if not, I'd suggest leaving a little more to define that brow.
