I am so, so proud of all of the contestants and champions who graced the stage for the @c2e2 Global Championships of Cosplay! You each did such incredible work and it's been an honour being able to serve as your judge. I am over the moon over how incredible our winners last night were, especially the camaraderie amongst each other as you celebrated each others victories. You each brought your A game with you. This was one of the hardest contests to have judged and each win was well deserved! Thank you for your craftsmanship, positivity, creativity, and continued dedication to cosplay!

Three hammers and only two hands. I hope @jasonaaron can help me out there and hold one of these for me. ;) #roadtoc2e2 #thor #thorhammer #mjolnir #jarnbjorn #järnbjörn #worbla #foamsmithing #worblaweapon #foamweapon #infinitywar #marvel #avengers #cosplay #cosplayer #marvelcosplay

My room is called The Armory. These are all mine. Hahaha. The Sword of Athena is by @coregeek and painted (badly) by me. The shield pattern is by @epoch.echo Everything else was made by me. @c2e2 #c2e2 #roadtoc2e2 #dayzero #thor #wonderwoman #askmeaboutmyfeministagenda

I love pretty piles of armor. My parents, however, find this an inappropriate use of the dining room table. ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ My drinking horn says “tears of men” on it. I drink that shit up. #janethor #femalethor #ladythor #thor #thorcosplay #janethorcosplay #RoadToC2E2 #marvelcosplay #worbla #worblasfinestart #worblaarmor

This weekend at @c2e2 was a success! I was successfully able to trick @yayahan @ridd1e and @canvascosplay into thinking I wasn’t actually just two hobos in a Snuggie fighting over a lunchable! THAT is the true power of cosplay. Little did they realize that my handler @bodoni_italic is actually just three puppies stacked in s trench coat. I was honored and humbled to be graded and judged by these unbelievably skilled and talented cosplayers. Us competitors only get five minutes to ramble off about the shit we did. I didn’t talk about how I got my heavy ass cape to attach, which was part of my engineering achievement which I feel might have earned me some bonus points. But in the end, they liked the puffy paint on my hammer. 😂😂 that hammer I hated so much? Yeah. They liked it. Now I don’t think I’m allowed to sell it. Hahaha. I was very pleased that they left the table, touched my costume, crawled on the floor, and really examined us. Trust me, they were Up In There. There was no ten-foot-rule in these championships. You had to look good from ten feet, AND ten inches. Oh and on the inside. Seams AND armor flipped. They checked your straps. Your glue. Your wires. Your hand sewing. Your zipper. That is how is SHOULD be in a construction based craftsmanship competition. It’s nerve wracking to have them behind you, asking you why you did what you did. “It seems like a good idea at the time” isn’t s good enough answer, you gotta KNOW why you did what you did and how it was the best way to tackle that element of your cosplay. When you are mind UB with anxiety, that’s hard. I’m proud I formed words. I had such a blast tho. I would love to judge in my future. But I still have ambitions. I’m still a Crown hopeful. But that means I have to move up and beyond just foam/worbla and leather. Reach for the stars!! #cosplay #cosplaychampionships #c2e2 #cosplayer #roadtoc2e2 #janethor #femalethor #ladythor #thor #thorcosplay #dontletyourdreamsbedreams

Test fit. To just make sure the helmet doesn’t hit the neck of my breastplate. It doesn’t unless my head is tilt d and turned. It otherwise clears it naturally and comfortably. GOOD TO KNOW. Also tested the weight of the cape. It feels great and doesn’t pull back on the armor at all. I’m SO HAPPY the cape covers all the details on my breastplate. And that my wig covers all the details of my cape. And by so happy, I mean kill me now. #RoadToC2E2 #cosplayfittest #cosplaywip #janethor #femalethor #ladythor #thorcosplay #cosplay #themightythor #mightthor #worbla #worblaarmor #worblahelmet #worblafinestart #cosplayer #cosplay
