Day 7 for #20daysofcosplaychallenge : future Cosplays for the year I made a mabari kigu earlier & need to make another for Das Husbando, I'll be Starbucks by the amazing Ozumii Wizard at #AX2017 , a fancy sorta secret version of Bucky, and Grey Warden armor. Twice. Because I'm crazy #cosplay #cosplayinprogress

Day 6 of #20daysofcosplaychallenge : character that is most similar to you. This was a tough one. If still say it's a tie between this one & Wolfwood, Twilight Sparkle wins. I'm a huge book nerd (I'm holding my leather bound copy of Jekyll and Hyde), love purple, am surprisingly shy about making new friends, love dragons, am a super nerd, & have had an epic fail whale of a slumber party. I remember being introduced to G4 by a friend who said, "you have to watch this, there's a pony that makes me think of you every episode!" I've done a variety of different versions of her, simply because I own so much purple clothing. I also crocheted a sweater vest because it felt incredibly appropriate. This picture was when we did "Crystal Empire" inspired looks, brilliantly designed by @devoidofsarcasm I was showing off my knee high argyle socks #cosplay #mlp #mlpcosplay #partymoderately

Day 3 for the #20daysofcosplaychallenge : favorite & least favorite Anders is quickly turning into a favorite. I've just met so many awesome people because of it & I get to be a bit of a troll hehe Sadly T'vray from Looking for Group was a bit of a disaster. Body paint+no sleep+gloves+long and heavy wig= all my suffering. The worst part was when someone said I must be from Avatar. Lady do you see how much clothing I'm wearing?!? But, all the pieces except the wig have been reused 😁

Day 12: Favorite Cosplay Item This was hard. I have a lot of things I love wearing or using in cosplay, but my oar for Botan is probably what I'm the most proud of. I cut this oar out of foam - or well it's actually two pieces of foam glued together. Then after I glued it, I sanded it FOREVER in order to get the shape PERFECT. Then I covered it in duct tape (purple of course). And then FINALLY I painted it. I get so many comments on my oar and no one ever thinks it's fake. I can't tell you the number of times I've been told I can't bring this into a con because it's a weapon and each time I just calmly hand it over to the staff member and laugh as they say "Oh....nevermind." I've really been wanting to make more props like this but whenever I try it doesn't work. So maybe it was a one time fluke. Either way, I love my oar. #20daysofcosplaychallenge #favoritecosplayitem #botan #oar #yuyuhakusho #propmaking #handpainted #ducttapesolveseverything

#20daysofcosplaychallenge Day 15: What events have you gone to? Uhh... A lot... 😅 There may be a few I forgot in this list, and I only included cons, not one-day meetups or local events. Moving around a lot has perks! But there are still more cons I'd love to go to in places I haven't lived, like the mid-west and pnw and Canada. One day! 😤 . . . #20daysofcosplay #conventions #cosplayer

Day Six: Character you've cosplayer who is the most like you. Well, at first I was going to go with Belle (which seems the obvious choice) but as I was scrolling through my cosplay pictures I realized...I'm totally Edna Mode. I'm short, unmarried, an artist, and I don't give two shits what anyone thinks of me - plus I'm slightly crazy. #20daysofcosplaychallenge #ednamode #theincredibles #cosplaymostlikeyourself

#20daysofcosplaychallenge Day 14: Most recent cosplay? Battousai Himura Kenshin! 💖🗡 . . . . . #20daysofcosplay #himurakenshin #himurabattousai #rurounikenshin #rurounikenshincosplay #cosplay

#20daysofcosplaychallenge Day 13: Dream Cosplay(s)? Poncy historical Frenchmen 😩💦🇫🇷 I've been wanting to cosplay Napoleon ever since playing AC Unity, and Lafayette is my ride or die fav... But both of these cosplays won't happen until I have the time and money to invest in historically accurate materials and construction techniques. One day...! 🙏🙏🙏 - - - - - #20daysofcosplay #dreamcosplay #dreamcosplays #napoleonbonaparte #marquisdelafayette #historicalcosplay #hamilton #assassinscreed
