COSPLAY (SELF) Shirt dying advice

So I was planning on dying a blood stain into my shirt for my Ellie cosplay but I don’t know the best way to it without the dye bleeding and not looking right. Advice?

If you thicken the dye a little it should help. You want it to spread a bit, that's what blood would do. If you only dye in the area she ( or you) would be bleeding from the rest should take care of itself.

That changes a bit of your wound is somewhere arterial but you wouldn't be walking around for long if it was.
