Gathering materials for my Katsucon project has me thinking about last year's project, my own take on Yui from Fushigi Yuugi!

Had a great weekend vending in Neko Con's artist alley for the first time. Neko Con was actually one of the first cons I ever attended many moons ago, so this was a personally meaningful con for me to be vending at. #nekocon #nekocon2025 #artistalley #animeart #illustration

Jellyfish mermaid! Jellyfish are like nature's chiffon, so I had a lot of fun with the translucency and frills on the jellies 🪼 #jellyfish #mermaid #originalcharacter #characterart #illustration

Cosplay side by side of Cait Sith! I still have a few small details to add and the megaphone, but I'm pretty happy with the final results of this costume 🐈‍⬛📣

5. My most expensive cosplay: Rosalina as designed by @dessidesu.bsky.social
I don't track the exact costs of my costumes, but I'm sure that between the amount of materials used and buying them on a deadline, it's bound to be the most expensive

Stargazer lily fairy! I really love these flowers for their name and beautiful bright pink color. I want to continue working on original work more, even after I finish fall table prep. Any other types of mermaids or fairies you would like to see me draw? ✨

I've always been bad at cosplaying well-known designs or characters, but it's mostly because I'm attracted to designs that look cool and fun to make over popular characters. It's the love of the craft for me!

I understand the hate behind ai, I'm not shy about it myself neither.

That said, a ".ai" file is not ai, that's adobe illustrator: a vector-based art program. Please pass it on for people. I've seen multiple witch-hunts start up, which causes grief and embarrassment for both accuser and accused.

Who else is enjoying new Panty and Stocking? The newest episode has probably been my favorite so far. I think we are due for a Stocking focused episode though 🩵🍭 #pantyandstocking #stocking #animeart #fanart #characterart #illustration

Gonna be honest, I was initially very unsure of my body in this. It wasn't until I got to the shoot and the Molly-hype train pulled in that I started to feel like I did a good job.

Spider lily fairy! I’ve been working on a bunch of new original fantasy pieces and landed on doing a few lily flower themed fairies.

So glad I was able to get some water shots in Yui! This rocky lake shoreline ended up being the perfect setting for her.

Otakon is next week already! 😱 I should hopefully have some interesting progress to share on Cait Sith tomorrow. Until then, have some images of Amalthea from last year’s @otakon.bsky.social

Realized I never posted a cosplay side by side with my Yui artwork. One of these days I will finally get to actually making the scale pieces for my legs and shoes 😅

A winter mermaid for the summer heat ❄️ This is actually an unfinished piece I found on my iPad from 3 years ago that remain unfinished from life happening, so I decided to finally finish it up. #mermaid #fantasyart #originalcharacter #illustration

Some Sailor Cosmos from Otakon last year! I will thankfully be wearing much more comfortable cosplays this year 😅 Definitely bringing Cait Sith and Art Nouveau Umi. Maybe a third costume if anything else speaks to me ✨
