Silliness aside, we did get some nice Promstuck pictures. I’m normally ehhhhhghhghhh about Flash pictures, but I kinda like the “crummy Prom pictures” quality of these.

Done with my Fancy Godtier Feferi wings… not entirely pleased with them, since they’re smaller than canon and just… I don’t know. But they’re done.

There are four golden bells on the back so I jingle when I move.

BEAUTIFUL CREATURE

Process pictures of my Fancytier Aranea wings!

They still look sorta odd. I went with the two winglets instead of the canonical three, so that there’s eight winglets in all, like a spider!

It’s hard to tell in the pictures, but they’re actually a more opaque blue, and I did darker gradients along the sides and tips.

PSA: Cosplay Tutorials/Whatnot

Hi guys!!

I am THRILLED and honored my cosplays have been floating around. Thanks for all of your many comments and likes!!

I woke up this morning to a BUNCH of asks asking to make tutorials, or where I bought items(?!) or various things..

I’m really, really sorry, but it’s unlikely I’ll make a Tutorial on these things! Reason ISN’T HURHURHUR IMMA HOARD SECRETS, it’s more that when I make cosplays… I just.. sorta… do them.

I always have the intention of sitting down and taking pictures but inevitably I’m halfway through the project and have totally forgotten. Also, with sewn pieces, I very, VERY rarely use storebought patterns and draft my own!  Which also means I screwed up a ton in-process. I taught myself to sew through doll clothes, cosplay, and lolita, so it means I don’t really know the proper or even easy way to do things! And even then, I couldn’t explain it if I tried!

Seriously, I’ve tried to draw pictures of my patterns and explain how they’re put together… AND IT MADE SENSE TO NO ONE.

So, tl;dr… Thanks for all of your questions and asks, everyone, but I’m probably not going to make any tutorials any time soon. ;;

That said- the wings I made were using a conglomeration of tutorials online- (Emilie Autumn did a really great one, of all people!) and a few years of making BJD wings.

There’s also an awesome tumblr,

HOMESTUCK COSPLAY HELP

for all of your tutorial needs! They’re even sorted by character!! It’s awesome.

That’s all! Again, I’m really sorry. I just feel awful when I wake up to a million questions asking me to explain how I made an entire costume when… I… DON’T REALLY KNOW HOW I DID EITHER…?
