The good news is my charms arrived today and they're PERFECT 🩷🩷🩷

“I’m shocked by my good fortune, quite honestly. Rent is fair, and the setup is just what I need to start making a living again.” Incredible captures of Dammon by @tylerhaunts.bsky.social They wield light so effortlessly.

By far my least favourite part of this cosplay process 😝

Happy 20th anniversary, besties 🩵 ATLA has shaped my entire life and I am so grateful. 📸: @honeyheather.bsky.social #atla #AvatarTheLastAirbender

Some Obles to break up the Gale progress! Incredibly, I’ve only worn Obi-Wan once, at Katsu a couple of years ago. I’ll have to dust him off again sometime. Photo by @silhouettecosplay.bsky.social #starwars #starwarscosplay #obiwankenobi

Took some pics of the mostly finished tunic and belt. Hand embroidered cuffs and collar, hand embossed belt tiles, hand stitched border details on both. Still have quite a ways to go on this cosplay but I’m so in love with how it’s turning out! #baldursgate3 #galedekarios #bg3cosplay #bg3

Belt tiles are weathered and attached! I quite like how each one is slightly different, it preserves that nice handmade feeling. Now to do all that silly tiny stitching for the borders….

Spot the difference, #Gortash edition #baldursgate3

These take a while but progress is being made!

I had a dream last night that I was cosplayjng Essek and I had a really cool wig except the bangs kept rubbing the body paint off my forehead Brain what even I am not a CR person except to the extent that I’ve watched Vox Machina and I’m being bullied into cosplaying Percy at some point lol

The Mother of the Halla and the youngest of the Evanuris herself; Ghilan’nain I finally finished the biggest and most difficult cosplay I’ve ever done, and I’ve never been prouder. Thank you Dragon Age: The Veilguard for my new evil princess. Enjoy 🖤 #dragonage #dragonagetheveilguard #ghilannain

I took a 2-hour depression nap last night and then hyperfixated on finishing Keyleth's staff for 3 hours straight while watching the beginning of the Critical Role C3 finale #CriticalRole #CriticalRoleCosplay #cosplay #Keyleth #KeylethCosplay

Just sharing for my own morale, to prove I'm making progress 😩

Large pile of aluminium cutouts turned into a slightly smaller pile as I paired them off for layering (and admired the future layout). Next up, embossing details!

"I get that...but I think the world would be better with you in it....even in Avernus." Darn you, Dammon, and your endearing optimism. ;^; <3 Karlach @sousvoid.bsky.social Dammon @athelartistry.bsky.social Photography: Andrea.Foshada (IG) #dammon #karlach #heartforge

Choosing fabrics for a character is one of my very favourite parts of the cosplay process, especially when I can incorporate some thematic symbolism! So here’s a brief look at Gale robe fabrics and the thought process behind them 👍 #baldursgate3 #bg3cosplay #galedekarios #bg3

Eeeeee ko-fi memberships are live! I’m so excited to have a space to blog and share details! If you enjoy my work and want to see even more behind the scenes progress, do consider joining! We’re gonna have fun! 👀 💚

Videos are very much not my forte, but I put together a little visual overview of how I’m doing Gale’s camp shoe embellishments! Cutting the shapes out of 36 gauge aluminium foil with my Cricut Maker, then embossing the finer details by hand. And yes, this is a very fiddly process 🤪

"It's you?! What are you doing here?" Trying to plan posting between Blusky and IG, so here is another Rolan. Photography by OddlyCaptured (IG) #rolanbg3 #rolancosplay

Hi all! I am revamping my ko-fi this year to be a better space to share my costumes, my process, and offer a way for folks to support my work if they want to enable me further! 😜 I have missed blog/style posting and I can’t wait to do more, so here’s a look at where my ideas are headed!

"Oh, don't get all high and mighty with me, Lia." The world is tough right now, but dressing up and making magic with friends definitely gives me joy. (I hope it brings others joy, too.) Photography by OddlyCaptured on IG Location: The Last Bookstore (LA)

One of my eventual goals is to do more studio work. I love the work I can produce. ❤️ ⚜️ Shadowheart 🖤❤️ ⚜️ Baldur’s Gate 3 ⚜️ @spookyducky on IG

Eagerly awaiting the snow coming tonight, so here’s a throwback to when I Skyrim’d it up at some ice castles! Absolutely frigid but well worth it for these atmospheric photos (taken by @silhouettecosplay.bsky.social ) #skyrim #skyrimcosplay

Got a new computer so I'm going through my external hard drive photos and man, I should start reposting cosplay photos here because I am actually really good at cosplay and have like 13 years worth of photos.

“I thought this was ai at first” is not the compliment some people think it is. I’ve gotten a few of these lately and I am over it. “Your hours of skill and creativity look like a machine spat them out” is one of the least flattering things I have ever heard, actually! 😬 AI cannot do what I do.

“Lost in thought….” I like how you can see a hint of the starscape robe lining in this one ✨ 📸: @silhouettecosplay.bsky.social #baldursgate3 #galedekarios #bg3 #bg3cosplay
