Why is deciding cosplays so freaking hard???? Like I know I am cosplaying my WoL at GATEway FATE, but I'm torn between like 3 other cats, 2 elves, and an Ascian in a pear tree.

Heads up I am retiring the "Nidhogg's Rage: The Tour" and "Convocation of the 14" designs after Halloween or when it sells out. Whichever comes first. I will be redesigning both shirts and launching a 2.0 version in late November. So yeah um, this is the final run for both of the original prints!

Okay, so I have learned that if I do the bodies and back of the head first it goes faster when making nuis... still gotta embroider the faces but it's definitely going quicker

For folks who were utilizing the Best Western block, our apologies but due to ongoing repair work that keeps having delays they will not be able to honor the reservations there. An email has now gone out from them with relocation instructions.

Okay so con prep for GATEway FATE is almost done: Stickers and photocards have been ordered. Main cosplays have been restyled and cleaned. All that is left to do is finish up a little guy for a friend, and actually pack.

Side note i might make marketable plushies of my WoL cause I have it as kind of a running gag that Tataru has commissioned 2 types of minions based on Luces. One is your standard minion with accessories and extra clothing sold separately. The other is an ultra rare special edition wedding version

can we PLEASE bring back the word "poser" and stop using "larp" or "cosplay" - being a "poser" or "faking" being into something is lazy and disingenuous whereas cosplayers and actual larpers are passionate about their hobbies and out a lot of time and effort into them
