JC's introduction

JC's Introduction Hey guys! The blogger's being a bit funky today, so sorry if this looks a bit odd. I recently asked JC if she would like to write a quick paragraph as an introduction. So, here it is! Take it away, JC! " Hello, I am gaycie the big boi. My cosplays are varying so far, but I'm going as my fursona, Richie Tozier, and Pidge so far. I don't cosplay often but when I go to conventions it's a fun experience. Feed me orphans, ~JC " JC isn't a blogger, but she is an artist, and you can usually find her on her DeviantArt, youtube channel, and Discord chatroom server. Her Fursona, JC Mocha Biscuit, her Axolotl OC Find her here! DeviantArt YouTube Channel Discord Chatroom Server Thanks for reading! Go check out JC and give her a few likes, at least! Keep cosplaying, Julia.

Ouran High School Embroidered Badge + Instagram?

Ouran High School Host Club Embroidered Badge + Instagram? Hey guys! Today I simply wanted to show you a picture of the badge I am working on and explain how I am making it. Also, talk a bit about my return to Instagram! I am making my badge from a felt base, then embroidered on top of it to get the design correct. I used markers on the felt to get the basic shapes, tested it, then embroidered it. I still have to finish the black, fill in the white, and add some yellow. I think that embroidering it will make it look more professional and make it look like I put my time into it (because I did!) Also, I have returned to Instagram after my long hiatus! Yes, I wasn't really planning on coming back, but I have more things I can do now. Please go check it out  https://www.instagram.com/inazuma.cosplay/

Ouran High School Host Club | Cosplay Panel I will be acting as Kyoya Ootori at a Sodak Con panel. Hello everybody!  This summer, I will be going to my first Full-Three-Day Anime Convention! But, I will also be performing at my first cosplay (or any) panel! The panel is a QnA/Dares panel starring the cast of a great anime, Ouran High School Host Club! I will be acting as Kyoya Ootori. " Kyoya Ootori , a 2nd-year student at  Ouran Academy , is the cost-conscious and calculating Vice-President of the  Host Club  which he co-founds with his best friend,  Tamaki Suoh ." - Wikia So far, I have the following finished. The main jacket, tie, glasses, and shirt. When I get the pants for this Character, I will use them for the Keith cosplay as well.  The wig, as well, will be used for both cosplays. Doing this can be quite cost-saving and easy. (Definitely recommended for starters) Keith Kogane Cosplay I will also be cosplaying as Keith Ko

How to Decide on a Cosplay | Advice

How to Decide on a Cosplay | Advice Hello everybody, today I will be talking about how to decide on a cosplay. Deciding these things can be very hard, the wrong choice can be regretful. Look at your resources. My Edward Elric coat. Take a look at your fabric, wigs, and other supplies. What can you make NOW? Or what do you have ready?  Yes, you can buy more supplies. But, if the convention is near. Or, if you're like me and spent all your money on the tickets. They can be expensive and hard to get.  Take a look at the panels. Same coat, but refurbished for Keith. Maybe you'd like to be part of a cosplay panel and you can make a costume for it. Or, there's a panel with voice actors from your favorite series you'd like to cosplay at. Think about your deadline and current interests.  You may like your Voltron cosplay, but be really into Undertale at the time and go as Undyne. Go in a cosplay that you will be excited about and happy

Kogata Daycon | Review

           Kogata Daycon | Review  Hey guys, today I am doing a very late review of a new con I went to! If you guys don't know,   Kogata Daycon is a one-day convention. It includes anime, gaming (Tabletop and Video), and furries! (A poster from a year ago, this year was their 5th) This con isn't really new, but it's not as popular as it should be. I was very impressed with the quality of the management and professionalism. The whole con was overall enjoyable and fun! I even met the creator of Paper Jam . A part of an Undertale AU I'm not very familiar with, but she was very nice! I only went to one panel, the cosplay makeup panel, but I wish I would've gone to the fandom battle panel. (It was Harry Potter vs. Captian America. I hear it was hilarious!!) The makeup panel was super informational and helpful! I received help from the panel host, but I even received information from the attendees of the panel. The Cosplay Makeup Panel was held by Cur

Keith Kogane and Kyoya Ootori Cosplay | Work in Progress

New Cosplays! Hey guys, I'm back and here to stay after a needed break. The school year got very busy, but you don't need to hear it! You came for some awesome cosplays! Please, keep in mind these are both works in progress. Keith Kogane You all remember my Edward Elric cosplay? Well, I took the red jacket, and folded/cut it to be smaller! I then hot glues strips of felt fabric for the yellow and white pieces. I am almost done, but I need to add the collar and possibly a zipper. I feel like using the base jacket saved much more money and overall improved the quality and efficiency.  I have some tuning to so and some more progress, but if you have any suggestions or comments, leave them below! Keith Jacket: Back Keith Jacket: Front Kyoya Ootori This next cosplay was made in about an hour! I will be wearing it to a cosplay panel, which I may post here. Kyoya Ootori is from Ouran High School Host Club. The school has a uniform, which all the
