A very dramatic screenshot at the alter to Fen'Harel in the Exalted Plains. I wish he had any kind of reaction to visiting this. Even like, a nervous laugh or something. #dragonage

Finished Bellara hairpin! I sculped this in clay, made a mold, then resin caste it, sanded and painted. Its functional too! #dragonage #dragonageveilguard #bellaralutare #cosplay

Bellara hairpin is functional! I've done some dremeling on it and I need to do fine detail sanding still but it was smooth enough to try in my hair. I put my hair in a ponytail, twisted it up into a bun and the hairpin keeps it in place! I have *long* hair so I'm happy its so stable. #dragonage

Bellara's hairpin project- I've got it sculped and baked! Its pretty fragile so I'm going to do a bit of sanding then make a mold and hope a resin caste works! #dragonage #dragonageveilguard #bellara

I'm making Bellara's hairpin from Veilguard. I've got it sculpted out of sculpy clay right now. After some adjustments, I'm going to make a mold and resin caste it for durability. #dragonage #dragonageveilguard #bellara

I'm remaking my leg armor for my Inquisitor costume. The old ones were heavy and difficult to put on, new ones are much lighter material and a different process. I'm happy with them so far! Below is a picture of a very nice corner. I'm proud of it, its very clean. #dragonage #dragonagecosplay

I really enjoyed reading "Dragon Age II" by Charlotte Reber put out by Boss Fight Books about the development of DA2. Some great information in there and based on new and old interviews with developers. #dragonage #bossfightbooks

Part of the talk was how the author names characters- sometimes after people she knows or meets. So there's a character in the book named Carmen (my name!) and when she signed my book we had a funny little discussion about that. And then this is how she signed my book! 😆 I'm so delighted!!

In my Origins playthrough, I came across this field in one of the surprise encounters. And just.. what is going on here? I know its supposed to be pumpkins and tomato bushes but it really looks so much like a shitty Halloween & also Christmas display.. little Christmas trees.. hilarious #dragonage

I sprayed them with a couple layers of water proofing and then chicago screwed them to a belt with the rest of the skirts. They ended up being stiff but still flexible and kept the 3d shapes really well.

Once dried, I added the hems:

elkattack.bsky.social @elkattack.bsky.social · 22/07/2025
I tried a few different things and ended up creating the shapes using sewing pins, painting over it with fabric stiffener, and taking the pins out once mostly dry so it wouldn't dry with too stiff of shapes. A huge headache. Here's shots of the pins in the correct placement:

I made (and hand sewed) belt loops to it, also the correct number to exactly match my screenshots. It fastens at the side with velcro that's very hidden in pictures. This is a piece that really matched my vision and I'm very happy with it! Here it is, my final costume front and back!

I never could find a vinyl or fabric that I was satisfied with the color so I painted it using Angelus leather paint in copper. 2 coats and a clear topcoat worked really well!

This piece kinda drove me nuts because the screenshots show its puffy & quilted and I really wanted to get the number of quilted pieces to match the Inquisition screenshots exactly.. so I made a pattern for the shape of the whole thing and then basically cut it up to make each little piece.
