ANIME, COSPLAY, & PROPS

It’s been a week, so should be safe to share. I won’t give names just in case. A little over a month ago I was commissioned to ma a #raygun for a #weddinggift. Only direction I was given was they wanted it in the old #flashgordon style sci-fi and they would love it to light up and make noise. I had a lot of fun with this build. I think I captured the feel of the old campy sci-fi movies pretty good. What do you guys think? I know the client loved it and hope that their new husband like it too and wish them the best on their merry future. #prop #gunlikeobject #scifi #lights #noice #laser #wedding https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp72RJvrYSq/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Finally layout for the tavern has been made. Now all left to do is to decorate the room. #wip #wipwednesday #bar #tavern #rustic #homebar #hometavern #medivaltheme #fantasy #fantasybar #fantasytavern https://www.instagram.com/p/CoaNjDjL202/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

This was a fun and simple build. It’s just a cork board, canvas and sticks from my back yard. Im sorry I forgot to take a before wrapping the cork board. The canvas is just a photo backdrop of wood planks. This build was inspired by @ghostfiregaming Twisted Taverns quest board poster What kind of request would you put on the board? Leave your request in the comments and it might go on the board. #diy #woodcraft #messageboard #questboards #handmade #dndinspiration #tavernwall #twistedtavern https://www.instagram.com/p/CoXairtLbWA/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Finally found a way to display the tracker fly lantern I made a few years ago. Took some inspiration from a key hook sign I found on etsy and Pinterest and put my own twist on it. I did my best to make it feel like it came right out of a Monster Hunter game. What do you guys think, will it work for the tavern? #onedaybuild #onedaybuilds #monsterhunter #mh #monsterhunterworld #lantern #craft #woodcrafts #woodcraft https://www.instagram.com/p/CoAmEW-LViM/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

So big thing coming this year! I am renovating a room in my house to be a fully functioning tavern. This tavern will be for DnD/game nights and cosplay shoots. Also may do some videos as well. I will post more as I get more done. If you have any ideas of things to add please share in the comments. #houserenovation #tavern #bar #rustic #tavernbar #wip #workinprogress https://www.instagram.com/p/Cn-KPNUv7lk/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Mew’s new favorite spot is under the kotatsu as he warms his toys up by the heater. However I didn’t have the heater last night to tell him that the kotatsu wasn’t on. The pic is of when he finally figured out it was off and curled up in my lap to sulk. #cat #orangecat #catlife #kotatsu #keepingwarm https://www.instagram.com/p/Cn4S4wmL6sV/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

So did NY Renn Faire this past weekend and wore my Musketeer garb. It was very comfortable and I got a lot of compliments. I talked with a couple of awesome guys that gave me some pointers to make it better. So planing on weathering the gambeson to make it pop more. Also huge thanks to my buddy for lending me his rapier for the weekend. Definitely need to get my own. Also as a cosplayer I need to work on posing better for photos. I will share more pics later. #musketeer #rennfaire #nyrenaissancefaire #custom #orginal https://www.instagram.com/p/CjVj6EsrFvO/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Here’s a look at the stuff I have so far for my Musketeer. Before you say a gambeson is not correct the right style, I know, but it’s awesome looking and I’m going to make it work. I still need to get the correct kind of sword and dagger. #cosplay #costume #musketeer #workinprogress #wip #gambeson #hat #musketeerhat https://www.instagram.com/p/CiNmwjgLykw/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

It’s complete!! I have finished my musketeer hat. Really like how it turned out. It’s cray to think a cheap felt hat from Amazon became this. Now I just have to finish the rest of the ensemble. #hat #custom #customhat #musketeer #musketeerhat #peacockfeather #hatplume https://www.instagram.com/p/CiGJuaprtDo/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Shaping of the musketeer hat is done. I’m really digging this look. Now I have to make a leather strap and add a large feather. #wip #workinprogress #hat #felthat #musketeer #musketeerhat #custom https://www.instagram.com/p/Ch2mUcKL0Ui/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Making my own custom musketeer hat. Got cheap floppy felt hat off Amazon for the base and followed a hat maker tutorial to learn how to stiffen it. Worked very well. #hat #customhat #musketeer #musketeerhat #wip #workinprogress #felthat #newproject https://www.instagram.com/p/Ch0F_vVr-7z/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
