Another commission from @betweenthefog.bsky.social and you can see how awesome it turned out. I'm especially pleased with the eyes and hair, when you see them at fullsize the highlight and shading is great. Same goes for the face, it really gives her definition. Enjoy the full-res version here!

I have a lot of thoughts on this design, but I’m SO HAPPY to have it done and to have been able to get some nice photos on what was most likely the last “warm” day of the year!!
Big write up on this on my other platforms, but it’s too much for Bsky’s limited space.

I made myself another skirt for winter! I wanted my favorite shade of green this time. Guest appearance by Daisy 💚I’ve been very overwhelmed & stressed, it was nice to make something simple for myself. I took vid to show movement, I’ll try to share this week. I hope your Autumn has been beautiful 🍁🍂

FINALLY DONE. I have been working on an original design for myself for so long I’ve lost track. I took breaks, worked on other things then would come back, there was so much hand painting and affixing over 3000 crystals, I had to take breaks. I hope to get a shoot this month!

I had an old lineart commission of Rusalka from 2018 that I got around to having Tanyuu color, and here's how it turned out. Great as usual. I wonder just what Rusalka was timing on her watch. Thanks to @betweenthefog.bsky.social as always! Very hi-res.

A collection of Pokémon cosplay commissions that I’ve made! I’ve made quite a few more of these in the past, but that was before I was taking nice videos of my commissions!

I didn't like the red dot on Megatron, it was too small an aperture for an arms-length sight. It works much better on the Vector, so back it went - and I picked up a 2x Burris scope to replace it.
Now I'll just have to dial it in someday at the range, won't be anytime soon.

Getting these pics was a dream come true.
I purposely went way, WAY out of the way to avoid people for this, it’s off the beaten track to say the least.

I put a red dot sight on Megatron for fun. Already had one attached to a .45 carbine, and read up that a few people use this model on a .460 without recoil causing problems, so I swapped it over.
Gonna have to get a big handgun case for this thing and a custom made holster too.

Just got back from my second trip to the gun store, this time picking up a proper hand cannon. Or should I say Wrist Chiropractic Device - .460 Magnum is a hell of a round. Holy crap this thing is bigger than it looks on videos; my carry gun (Charter Arms Bulldog in .44 SPL)

Detail shots of a new commission, a Black Mage from FFXIV! I really had fun with each piece, I even made gloves w fake nails & tattoos on them, so my client doesn’t have to paint their hands every time they wear it. The bag is functional, the staff breaks down to make transporting it easier.

New commission: a Black Mage from FFXIV! I really enjoyed making this, so many hidden details! I made the staff so that it breaks down in half for easier transport, the hat is built on a base of foam, I’m so excited to see how this all looks on my customer, it really feels like a magical outfit!

This is the adorable daughter of my customer astralbunniecos (ig) in the Sakura of Card Captor Sakura! She makes the perfect magical girl! 💖 It’s adjustable to grow with her a little, and the wings are posable!

New commission: Anastasia! I went a little ham on crystals on this, but I think they’re hard to see in photos. There’s thousands of them, and I used multiple layers of light, airy fabrics so the skirt really flows beautifully and flares out! I’m so excited to see this on my customer!

I did a whole need to write up on this cosplay, but bsky allows about 20 words on a post, so you’ll have to go to Insta or something if you want to read it.
Anyway, here’s the costume I did based on the War Rig from Mad Max: Fury Road.

It took 4 months but FINALLY got pics of my Hannah Alexander Nami! I made this for KaizokuCon in Ireland back in March, since it's a pirate themed con, but I didn't get to do a shoot there due to the nonstop rain.

Commissioned Matt Plog again for another pic of that custom Atlas, and just got this in. Sucker's got presence, and a lot of weight the way he draws it - but it's a 100 ton death machine, it's supposed to be a chonky boi. And it damn well is. #battletech #mech #art

This week was International Fairy Day, I can’t think of a better time to post Fairy King Danaan! I’m so happy I was able to shoot this costume, but unfortunately immediately afterwards I threw it in the trash. The weight of the wings hurt, the entire costume was rather painful to wear.

I worked incredibly hard in Photoshop for so long to create a semi realistic Salome to pose with in this image, it was a little bit hard to make a ridiculous snake from one piece look kind of real. I hope to shoot on location somewhere this summer, I’m trying to find somewhere really cool for it!
