Gandalf the Grey from Lord of the Rings... but make him babygirl lol

Had a great time cosplaying him with my Hobbit friends and Sauron at Planet Comicon Kansas City. The beard threatened to suffocate me with yarn fly aways, but we persist.

Jayce officially absolutely not getting finished for Planet Comic Con. Therefore, Gandalf arises. Big bits (robe and hat) in a week with one king size bedsheet, a bottle of RIT dye, and a dream.

Still have to make a fuck-ass beard and dress my cane like a wooden staff. Then he will be complete

Don't have a whole lot of Pics of Gale from Planet ComicCon 2024, but here's these.

He'll probably make a reappearance this year as well.

Working on Jayce's front panels.

The curved panel is a bitch to put in, but it needed to be a separate piece so I could add in the dart that goes up from it. Did a flatfelled seam on the inside to finish, cutting notches along the curved bit to prevent puckering.

Jayce Talis begins

Fabrics are: cotton blend sateen for the exterior, a polyester microsuede for the sleeve lining, and a plainweave cotton for the rest of the lining

Might dye the blue fabric a little darker. It's not quite as saturated in person, but still 🫤

Bernadette Banner is single handedly responsible for me giving tailors chalk a second chance by making it look so aesthetically pleasing.

Still not my fav but it has earned my respect.

Launda from Critical Role, cosplayed her at 2024 Anime Nebraskon

Launda was the first cosplay I made and has been a work in progress since 2022. I swear to god she'll be 100% complete by Nebkon this year.

Hello :)
I'm Toadshade, I cosplay at conventions around the midwest

Cosplay is just a vessel for my fixation on sewing and needlework, so there will be yapping about that along with general nerd shit
