FIXED cos-ideas poll... (oops)

Okay, so I messed up the multiple choices setting on the last poll. Let's try this again!

I will try to combine the two polls just in case people miss this second one...

VOTE FOR AS MANY AS YOU LIKE! (for real this time)

2023 cos-ideas! A poll

I am unfortunately sick with Covid again. ;-; Valentines are further delayed.

Also now that I have nearly run out of con shoots, I actually have to start editing my own photos again. (boo) While I wait to hear back from the photographer who shot my Arabian Rise photos back in July (yep, July), I figured we'd do something we haven't in a while - a poll!

While I have many cosplans somewhat set in stone for this year, I would like to get your opinion on some others floating around i...

Megumi Shimizu album

Now that I have finally wrangled all of them into one album... Here's Megumi from Shiki!

It's so great to finally see her in one piece (ish - I never finished her footwear). The photographer, Chris Gallevo, even made spooky black sclera edits of all the photos (with my eyes open). I would like to do a shoot in the future with my fake teeth and full sclera contacts, but I didn't want to have to fight with either at the con.

I have plans to make another of her outfits (or do a close...

ABBA bachelorette selfies!

It was a fun night! I kinda looked like Velma crossed with Austin Powers, but that honestly works. Jinkies, baby!

The puns were immaculate:



In actual Patreon-related news, I will hopefully have everything I need for the Valentines soon and mail them out ASAP! 😬🙏 And I keep forgetting to upload and post the fixed Megumi album so I will do that soon too!

SpyxFamily date album!

Happy Valentine's Day from best mum, Yor!

These photos turned out so cute! I definitely recommend swiping to the end of the album. 😏 They don't call her an assassin for nothing, amirite?

Fabric for Leafeon aquired!

We hit up the local fabric store this weekend! As usual, I was super picky and took forever to choose my materials... xD I also couldn't find decorative trims that were the right colours, so I may have to go online for those...

I chose a silk dupioni for the green outer dress, which shifts in colour. It can look anywhere from a golden yellow tone to a sea foam sort of greenish blue. I included a few photos of it in different lighting.

The sheer striped fabric will go on top of ...

Working on a new 🍑y sticker

If you remember the full photo, you know. ;)

Valentine cards are going out late (since the edited shoots from November were delayed, so I am only just ordering prints now). ;-; But I will be including this sticker in the cards for tiers 2 and up, so make sure to increase your pledge this month if you'd like one! <3

(Tier 1 will still receive a Valentine card with prints)

MAKE SURE YOUR ADDRESS ON FILE IS UP TO DATE!

Yor Forger sneak peek

I finally got my last shoot back from Colossal North! My long time photographer pal, FX Dandy, captured some cute snaps of my Yor cosplay with a little spy hubby. 

Yor and Megumi will be the albums for February! <3 One a loving wife and assassin, the other an obsessive stalker and vampire - WHO WOULD WIN?

New cosplan: Regency gown Leafeon!

Who remembers my barbarian Flareon cosplay from 2018?

My friends and I have decided to approach the Eeveelutions with a new theme: Regency era costumes, or - RegencEevees!

We all chose new types this time. Aura is going to be Glaceon, and I am going green with Leafeon! (Not a common colour in my cosplans)

The dress above is going to be my inspo for my final design, but I will give it some more fantasy twists and, of course, work the leafy ears into a hat ...

Bunny Camie & Butler Todoroki album

Happy Year of the Bunny! This was a fun little shoot I had with RicePoison back in November at Colossal North. Warning: there are lots of goofy pics while we struggled to stay in character... lol

Fun fact: I hadn't had much to eat that day and slammed back my prop drink a little too quickly when it was time to change locations. So... the photos of me leaning on the pillar... I was quite tipsy in them... xDDD

Camie Utsushimi album ONLINE

Hey, guys! I have been knocked flat by some nasty cold? flu? something? this month, but I have made it to my basement tonight to upload these gorgeous images of my Camie cosplay, taken by Justin Evangelista/Sixtus! They are online for tiers 2 and up.

Bunny Camie (ft. RicePoison as butler Todoroki) will be uploaded later this month. :3 Just in time for the year of the rabbit!

I didn't get a chance to finish up the Christmas Yor pictures, oop. ;-; I will finish editing those when I ...

Camie (My Hero Academia) album

For my first Colossalcon North drop, here's Camie Utsushimi from My Hero Academia! Her wig was oddly annoying for something so simple (it was determined to be in my face) so I ended up holding it in the photos a lot, but they still turned out very elegant!

I'd like to shoot her again in an outside setting one day, with some more action poses. :) (I guess I could stand to watch more of the show so I actually meet her, oop)

Gonna try something new today... Here is the album in two l...

Festive Felicia - Black Cat album

QUICKLY - BEFORE THE NEW YEAR ARRIVES IN BLAZE'S TIME ZONE- 🤣😅

Meowy Kittymas~ for the last time this year. (I will still share some Chrimmus Yor soon too) I hope you like this cute festive look for Felicia Hardy, sponsored by Richard. I have some photos with her black suit and mask, too, but it deserves a proper shoot one of these days... (and a much nicer mask)

More Xmas Black Cat!

I am sorry I haven't finished editing these! Some idiot (me) forgot to colour her eyebrows black after they were warm brown for another character... so I have to keep fixing those on top of everything else. 😫

Trying to stay on top of Christmas shopping, wrapping, and baking too - but I promise she's coming!

Cards are all in the mail - I hope you enjoy them~

Christmas Black Cat - coming soon!

A photo from this set will be one of the two included in your Chrimmus cards this month! Any tier gets a card with two prints~ 🥰

The other will be a Yor Forger (and plushie Loid) photo. 🌹

Thanks to Richard for gifting me this romper!

(There will also be a regular Black Cat set, but I wasn't super happy with the mask that came with the costume so I will definitely redo her shoot in 2023)

New Pink Rise pics online!

For tiers 2 and above, I have brand new Rise pics to share! I was hoping the Arabian Rise pics would be ready this month so I could upload them together, but alas... ^^;; Maybe in December.

I'll be sharing more selfies/BTS shoots from Colossal, too. :) AND THEN - finally getting caught up on my severely packed up mail. T-T I am so sorry, everyone.

At least I have at least four months until I attend another con. The healing can begin, haha!

Big thanks to Gavin for nabbing some bts shots from all of my shoots. Matt grabbed some shots with their phone, too, and you can check the cosplay channel on Discord for those! <3

From Jojo-posing over a glowing bar (precariously balancing in 6 inch platforms on a narrow bar stool foot rest) to leering into an axe throwing cage, I definitely made the most of the location. I knew al...

Today I had a shoot as Megumi Shimizu. You diehard patrons will remember me starting her back in 2019... 😳 Well - she's done! (Ish... I never actually finished her boots but shh - Bratz stompers are better)

Mermaid WIP #4 - things are getting somewhere!

This is my foam fish son, Finley. He lives in a rainbow 🌈 of fabric, and I love him~

The scales are DONE! The yellow skirt they will be sewn to... is in early stages.

I started the blouse - just needs the sleeves and some tidying up now. ("Just" 😅 - lots of work ahead of me...)

I am satisfied with the state of my mock-up so I cut it from the Good Fabric (uh... a few times, I kept changing my mind about what the Good Fabric would be and finally had to sew two fabrics...

Arabian Rise preview!

I had hoped these shoots would be ready for September, but at least it looks like they might be ready this month!

I am tinkering with the pink Rise set and then I will upload those. The Arabian set is currently being edited by the photographer (sounds like she was quite backed up - can't complain since my shoot was free!) and may be available soon.
