Hi, I’m Cass! 💖🌟✨

I’ve been a crafter cosplayer since 2007. I combine my professional engineering background w/ historical handiwork to create highly detailed, award-winning multimedia builds (& performances)!

I post WIPs, educational panels/tutorials, & design process content (thread below)!🧵⬇️

An over the shoulder shot of a cosplayer portraying their original character. The character, Valor, is from a Dungeons and Dragons game in a setting inspired by 17th Century Venice. A gold and purple cape drapes over their left shoulder, atop a purple, gold, and black doublet. The cosplayer reaches up their hand to the light of the window and is peering through square glasses at whatever is down below.

The Code Geass 2nd musical premiered in Japan yesterday -- the cast all looked so good! I hope they share a recording, I loved watching the first one with friends.

A cosplayer portraying Lelouch Vi Britannia from Code Geass is the subject of a portrait photo. A hazy blue sky is the background, and the outfit is white, black, and gold with heavy beading and embellishment. The cosplayer holds a chessboard with pieces identical to those in the show.

#cultofthelamb #cosplay
In a dark an ominously lit marble hallway, a swath of cultists in flowing red robes eagerly listens to their leader, Lambert. The Lamb leans down from their position at the top of the stairs menacingly, taking the hand of one of the cultists looking up at them. This group of 5 cosplayers is portraying the cult from the game Cult of the Lamb.

As an elder cosplayer who had not consumed their morning caffeine yet when I saw this headline... seeing the NYT launch "Crossplay" today sure sparked some confusion 😂

An over the shoulder shot of a young woman with long, curly red hair, looking at herself in a large, ornate mirror. Her scarves dance across the frame and pool below the mirror. A halo crown with leaves, jewels, and glass dice adorn her face, and she looks confidently but wistfully at her reflection.

D&D double header today! 🎲 What a great way to spend the first weekend of the new year 🤩

I’m so hyped to cosplay more of my OCs in 2026! Would you cosplay any of your TTRPG characters?

A cosplayer portrays her original dungeons and dragons character, “Valor”, in full regalia. The room is full is glittering silver objects and gold lights that reflect off of the floor. The cosplayer poses with hands dramatically outstretched as if to be casting magic while wearing a purple doublet, purple/gold cape, and grey pants with tall black boots.

A cosplayer portrays princess Ariel from Disney's The Little Mermaid in her Sail Dress outfit, comprised of parts of the wrecked ship and sail.

While I didn't craft for myself as much as I expected, I taught a ton of classes, learned a ton of skills, and posed for more photos than I can count. 💖

We'll have a solid chunk of the PikCrew on Friday, a big Twisted Wonderland group on Sat, and another big HeroX group on Sunday! 💖

The "real" Pantone color of the year is Pthalo Green and you're getting Sailor Jupiter pics instead of whatever nonsense "Cloud Dancer" is supposed to be. 💚

📸 = @adoylible.bsky.social (1 & 2), @disastertown.bsky.social (3), @reiukos.bsky.social (4)
A cosplayer portrays Princess Jupiter from Sailor Moon in her princess dress, which happens to be this year's fan-selected color of the year (Ptalo Green) instead of the officially selected "Cloud Dancer" white. The photo has vivid foliage in the foreground and a gazebo in the midground, where the cosplayer spins and her ruffly skirt flares out dramatically. She's giggling with a hand up near her face. The background is full of additional green foliage.

Two cosplayers portraying Qifrey and Olruggio from the hit manga Witch Hat Atelier embrace each other. Qifrey faces away, lovingly but worriedly clutching Olruggio, while cradling the hat on Olruggio's head. Olruggio is in profile on the back side of the hug, facing out into the distance, not realizing the magic that is being cast.

D&D tomorrow! 🎲

We’re uncovering an elaborate political scheme in the capital city of Oro… but it's irrelevant if we all drown talking to the ocean fey (Selkin) next session 😅
What’s happening in your campaign right now? 👀

A cosplayer portraying their Dungeons and Dragons (D&D) original character stands on a fancy marble staircase, leaning on an ornate wooden banister. The room is gold, as is the cape and trim detail on the cosplayer. Their black boots rest of different steps, hand embroidered pants puff out in a Renaissance style, and a dark purple doublet is adorned with gems and Masquerade masks.
