Knight Artorias ✨🐺

Just took a stroll down memory lane looking through photos from my "Adventures in Lordran" with and gang. I absolutely love the empty dark ambiance of this set. Very Knight Artorias emo abyss boy vibes 🖤😶‍🌫️

The whole trip was so incredible, inspiring, and
–surprisingly– relaxing. I can't wait to do it again one of these days ☺️

Also along for the trip were my friends and fellow cosplayers , , and . And, as always, The Phil™️

Mighty Nein Monday! ✨ Okay it's a stretch but I needed something to post today so here it is 😂

In all seriousness - I had so much fun working on my level 2 Beauregard last year. It was complicated enough to keep my mind busy, but simple enough to turn it around in a reasonable amount of time (about 60 hours all in from pattern to completion). I've really been missing working on personal cosplay projects lately - so I'm hoping to find the time to squeeze some projects in soon ... somehow 😅!

A texture appreciation post for my boy, Artorias 🐺💙

I've had this armor on display for several years and it was finally time to pack it up and put it in storage for a bit. I captured these shots of the small details I find get lost in the fancier shots we tend to post as cosplayers. It was nice to spend some time appreciating all the little bumps and ridges I spent so long building up on each piece of armor.

Armor is made using Worbla's black art sandwiches around 2mm craft foam. Texture was added with a combination of heat cutting tool and bondo spot putty, base coated in satin black enamel and painted with acrylics by hand. The helmet was a monster clay sculpt, molded and cast in SmoothCast 300.

Snow Knight at MegaCon 2024 💙💛

It was a weird feeling to put this cosplay on again after six years of having it in storage. I'm so thankful captured these tranquil, glowy shots the armor, as I've decided it will be my last time wearing it.

Snow White Knight armor was designed and constructed by me in 2017. It won Best in Show at the first FanExpo Champions of Cosplay Sunshine Qualifier in 2018. Armor is made using Black Art.

Happy first of 2024! I hope you all had a fantastic holiday and are embracing the ⚡️electricity ⚡️ of the new year!

I’m busy getting back in the swing of things, so here’s some amazing shots I never shared by the lovely and talented during C2E2 2023. I absolutely adore the details she captured in both these shots! Interested to see which stand out to you guys?! 👀

As for my current WIPs, I have a fun little commission going, a handful of new products in the queue, and I’m working on restocking for both and weekends in early February. I've also made some exciting for later in the year 😆 !! All of which will be shared soon! ⚡️💜🐲

One last 🐲 DragonCon post 🐲 before returning to the real world ✨

This was a good one, ya'll. I feel it every time I'm back at DragonCon, but truly this was the best yet. To all my new friends and old, thanks for hanging, * Sam * dancing, taking selfies, talking shop, climbing art, watching The Phil Cart 🤣), and for just being generally amazing. You're a bunch of talented goobers, and I appreciate every one of you 💜✨

Til next year! 🫡

"Sorry I hit you with my stick." 😐

More from this amazing Beauregard shoot with at ! POP POP!

I have been busy busy busy working on THREE amazing commission projects, a new bunny hutch for DragonCon, and some minor repairs for Eivor and Beauregard - all before I leave for GamesCom next week 🤯 Surprisingly I am feeling great about balancing my time, and I know I'll be able to manage it all - but hot DANG it's still a lot to juggle at once!

Regardless, I've decided I'll be wearing Beauregard on Saturday for dragon and I am beyond excited to actually wear a comfy and SUPER FUN cosplay for all the Saturday shenanigans! I'll post up my full lineup the week of 🐲

Would love to see you if you're going!! Leave a comment if I'll see you there ! ✨

Custom "bone" carved rune stave mask is on its way to its new home today! 💀🐲

My client requested a set of staves for protection on one side, and happiness on the other. But then add a Dark Fae look to the overall mask 😈🖤

I stopped offering this mask style as a made to order once I created my big boy dragon skull, but I'm considering opening it back up as a made to order only, with up to six staves. What do you think? 🤔

Super-late SuperCon post is Super! 🦹‍♀️✨

I have told everyone who asked me this, and I truly mean it: This SuperCon was the most fun I've had at a convention in a long time.

I am beyond honored to have been invited by to judge the Southeast Qualifier. On top of that, to do so next to my friend and fellow past SE Champ , and new friend and amazingly talented seamstress was a blast. We made a great team if I do say so myself. We also worked in time for one on one feedback sessions with any participant who wanted it, which as a competitor myself is something I have always wanted post-contest, and I hope CC will continue to offer!

Congratulations again to all the winners of the SE Qualifier 🏆! You're all out here making the Southeast cosplay scene proud 💪

Congratulations as well to the winners of both walk on showcase contests! You all looked fantastic up there and made it SO difficult to choose winners. Keep it up!! I want to see you all in the Qualifier next time 😜💜

Additional shout outs to my new friends .snip.cosplay and the amazing Yasha cosplayer who did not have an Instagram handle (I love her and she made my day 🥲). To the lovelies I was able to see again - May the art forever be climbable, and your ears forever ring with the anguished tunes of MCR. 🖤

To the best helper, handler, social media content recorder, and biggest fan - you are my shining raccoon star and I love you ✨🦝💛Thank you so so much for your constant support and putting up with my blatant OSHA violations. I hope you are recovering well from all the extrovert activities 😜!

And most importantly, just THANK YOU everyone for a fantastic time. Drem Yol Lok! 🐲💜

🏳️‍🌈PRIDE TOTOROS!! ❤️💛💚💙💜

I am so late on publishing these little cuties to my website, but better late than never, I suppose! They are finally available for adoption on my website, and are eager to find a new houseplant to call home 🌱🐰

Each bunny is meticulously cast by hand using colored layers of resin. Eyes are colored by hand using alcohol ink.

Available in Gay, Le***an, Pan, Bi, Non-binary, Ace, and Trans! I'm hoping to add Agender and Ally Totoros in the coming months as well 🌈
