Going to use this to pin tags I use in here. So far only cosplay stuff is posted but the others will get love in time. If you're on mobile hold down on the tag to filter posts.

Toyohime cosplayer asked to remain anonymous but is a friend of mine.

I entered in the craftsmanship contest but didn't win, oh well 🤷

#ProgressDump time

Next project has been decided and I ordered the fabric for it too. Won't get here until end of the month but I have the under skirt stuff already so it begins!

I just made my Megumu this year and debuted it during Animazement (May). I doubt I'd do a full rebuild but I may redo the pauldron and give it a bit more shine. The cosplay for the most part has been holding up fine.
Next up on my list is Keine with a quick change dress feature.

Made Tengu fans for Ota friends. Friday is going to be Tengu day >:)

Eva foam. I used masking tape to make the hot glue in the seams flush and basically injection molded it. Acrylic paint. A dremel. The good stuff. Sturdy enough to work as an actual fan too.

I'm bad at posting on here.

Anyways here's my Otakon line up and the blank template I made. Template is from Ota's website I just modified it to fit vertical format with 4 slots. Font is Serif-Bold.

#megumuIizunamaru #cosplay finally got some good pics of me in it. As with the rest of my stuff this is hand sewn madness. Don't do this! Don't be me. I cannot begin to explain how unhinged it is to do this did stuff 100% by hand. Took home a Judges Choice! Yippie!

Megumu Iizunamaru #cosplay debuted @animazement.bsky.social

Entered in the hall contest but I was at the booth during the masquerade so no clue how I did. I'll have this one at Otakon too.

I do not look forward to painting these. It's going to suck so bad.

Each feather set is organized into sheets. 8 total per wing plus whatever seam coverage I end up doing.

To answer the age old question you asked your math teachers in Trig/Geometric "when am I ever going to use this stuff?"
Now.
You'll use it now to plan cosplays. I've had to re-teach myself cones, circles, triangles (all flavors)
#WatatsukiNoYorihime is next after Megumu

Megumu wing work. Internal is upholstery foam and 9ga wire. Feathers are 1/8in eva foam. Harness is a simple loop. I'll explain in a different post.

Reception was dicey yesterday. It's doing ok today. So here's some Okina pics. And before anyone asks, yes I dodged the burst pipe, I was upstairs at the time. Go support the artists who had their stuff ruined ok? #okinamatara #cosplay #摩多羅隠岐奈 #touhou #東方 #Katsucon2025
