Kernel Panic Cosplay

Yeeeee first official Astarion pic!!

It was so fun to finally wear him to a con after working on it the past three-ish months! I’ve definitely found some things I want to adjust/make better, mostly in how things are rigged together, but overall a successful first run!

First Astarion makeup test!!

NGL I was super nervous about testing this one because visually Astarion is sooo out of my comfort zone! But I got excited after the wig styling worked better than I expected, and now I know I can do the makeup too!

I brought this unused Loki concept to life!!

I’d been eyeing this stunning design by @aleksibriclot for years, and a little while ago (after two years of working on it) I finally finished it! It has all the dark norse fantasy vibes that I wanted Ragnarok to be, and I figured hey, I can make it myself!

I had to up a lot of my leatherworking skills for this one, and I dove into a lot of new skills as well to try to make all the pieces a cohesive whole. It uses lambskin leather, suede cowhide, and veg tan, as well as an entire sheepskin for the cape!

This whole costume has truly been a labour of Loki love and I’m so glad I was able to share all the madness (process) and the finished look!
