Maleficent WIP paint test!

Okay lemme start by saying that this is no where near finished! It kinda looks like crap in comparison to what I'm envisioning :P

So for Maleficent I'm mostly using foam and wood-carving ...

Lazy Morning.

This shoot was a dream come true. I had a vision, and Regina helped make it happen! Collaborating with photographers can sometimes be a challenge due to artistic differences, but with the prompts '...

More Alcatraz!

Oh man. I was soooooo nervous for this shoot. I have this notoriously bad luck with shoots that I get kicked out of EVERYWHERE. You know the whole 'ask forgiveness, not permission' thing photograph...

So uh yeah this happened and I'm okay with it.

Sooooooo I made a Fem Ignis from FFXV and although it started out as a normal shoot with a full costume (photos soon!) , it divulged to lingerie and Cup Noodles rather quickly XD

T...

Making of Prompto: Handmade Patches and Painting

This was my favorite part of Prompto! The patches! Maybe it's because I love detail so much, or maybe because it was a unique use of my sewing skills =3

I have an embroidery machine but nev...

Valentine's Day shoot this week!!

Most of my creations start with a rough sketch just to get the flow of color figured out! Lingerie is no different :) Because of what I have envisioned, I'm going to have to make a majority of this...

Moving in!

Aela the Huntress

Handmade patches, bleaching, riveting, painting... So much work, and yet it will probably never show in photos :P worth it though! Can't wait to show you the finished Prompto and talk about how I m...

Snow and smoke

I had a lot of fun last Friday with Regina of MaelDesign shooting my Viking Elsa!

It's hard to get the snow to cooperate, so we toyed with a snow machine and smoke to get the effect we wante...

Cosplay/Crossplay/Genderbent? WAT -- Blog post on cosplay character design

Although I had two photoshoots prepped for this weekend (one being Witch Mercy at a graveyard!!), it's reach below 0 degrees Fahrenheit here in Minnesota, so going outside almost at all has been......

"I'm scared to cosplay because I don't know how to sew"

This is such a common thing I hear. And although it does break my heart when I hear it (sewing is such an amazing artform--you make a pile fabric into something wearable!) it isn't necessary for go...

Mold-making!

I was going to make a post about how I made my Witch Mercy, but kinda realized I didn't really use many new techniques to talk about! Like, my sewing was very similar to my Dark Brotherhood costume...
