good dough 🤲 #vanco #zaundads
Cosplay portrait shot of Jul as alternative timeline Silco sitting at a table with lots of papers and a coffee pot and cup in front of him. He is holding a pen in his hand, but he is not working, because apparently something caught his eye. Cosplay portrait of Franzi in her alt timeline Vander cosplay — but only wearing his apron. Vander is standing in the backlight by a window, kneading dough with both hands on a wooden board. A rolling pin lies next to the board. The backlight emphasizes his arm muscles. Closer shot of Silco. He now wears a smirk on his face, has stopped bothering with his work and is instead staring at his husband who is out of frame. In the foreground, there is the ball of dough resting on its worden board, right next to a pack of flour, rolling pin and golden ring. In the blurry background, Silco is kissing Vander's neck passionately.

what a good time for a married #zaundads photo set :)
#vanco
Backlit portrait cosplay shot of Franzi as older Vander. He is looking down at something the viewer doesn't see, smiling slightly. He is not wearing his man bun and he's shirtless, like he's just gotten out of bed. Backlit shot of Vander's hand pouring coffee into a cup from a coffee pot. The light creates beautiful highlights in the metal cup and pot. The coffee is so hot that you there is a lot of steam rising from the cup. Portrait cosplay shot of Jul as older Silco lying in bed. He is holding his hand up and looking at a ring on his finger with a smile. In this shot, the light creates shadows of Vander and Silco on the bedroom wall. Vander is handing Silco his cup of coffee, and they are just about to kiss. In the foreground there are crumbled bedsheets, and Vander's and Silco's folded shirts lie below the shadows by the wall.

Cosplay portrait photo of young Silco and Vander from Arcane in their mining outfits, walking down a huge tunnel towards a blue light. Silco is looking back at the viewer, Vander is looking at Silco. We only see their silhouettes and the yellow lamp light on Silco's helmet. The blurry silhouettes of other people are visible in the background. Cosplay photo of young Silco and Vander resembling the artbook picture that shows them as miners. Both are smiling and Silco is touching Vander's shoulder. Full body low angle cosplay photo of young Silco and Vander standing in a tunnel, wearing their miner outfits and looking back at the viewer. Vander is wearing his gauntlets. The lamps on their helmets are on. A light in the background is creating a bright line through the bottom half of the picture. Below it, there are silhouettes of other people visible, too.

Throwback to our lazy lotr bbq day at viencon where we cosplayed as Frodo and Sam, and @antheaodreo.bsky.social took some pics before we had our second breakfast 🧡
Full body cosplay photo of Frodo and Sam from Lord of the Rings. They are standing between trees and looking up at the sky, standing very close to each other. Frodo's hands are resting on Sam's shoulder. Some of the leaves around them are brown; autumn is starting. Half body cosplay photo of Frodo and Sam surrounded trees and bushes. Frodo is holding Sam's head gently, giving him a forehead kiss.

ever wonder what it's like to take photos at viencon's pool area? story of opposites indeed bc most people go for vacation vibes and we decided to make Silco relive the worst day of his life 🫶
#arcanecosplay #silcocosplay #cosplayphotography
Close up side portrait photo of young Silco floating in the water. The mood is dreamy with a blurry white background. Silco's hair is spreading in the water, creating a dark spot where you can see a blurred reflection of his face, but it does not reflect the healthy side of his face, but the side that was damaged on the day of the failed revolution. Underwater cosplay photo of young Silco falling into water. The atmosphere is threatening and bathed in red light. The face and expression aren't visible due to the many air bubbles rising to the surface. Photo of young Silco. In the upper half you see his face emerging from water. Hair covers the left, damaged half of his face. The eyeliner on his other eye is smudged. He is directly looking at the viewer with an accusing expression. The lower half of the pic is the body of water, overlayed with the red-black silhouette of another person's upper body.

Cosplay portrait of Vander, Silco, and Powder from Arcane Season 2, Episode 7. They stand closely together, holding one another in an embrace. Vander looks at Silco and Powder with a fond smile. Silco and Powder gaze directly into the camera with expressions that feel gentle and show closeness as if captured in a family portrait. The composition is inspired by an illustration from the official Arcane art book. Cosplay photo of Vander, Powder and Silco from Arcane Season 2, Episode 7, embracing each other tightly, radiating warmth & safety. It shows the feeling of a found family.

This was inspired by a cute library photo where it was books instead of bottles (obviously). Here's two outtakes that show how simple the set up was
Simple photo setup made for the blurry foreground of an image. It is in focus in this photo. We see a surface with bottles placed on it in a way that creates a window for the viewer to see what is happening in the background. On top of some books, there is a small wooden stand that creates a second level above the other bottles. There are more bottles placed on it. In the background, we see two people kissing, but they are hardly recognizable because it's too blurry. In this photo we can see the foreground blurry as intended. The background is in focus here, with a glass cabinet filled with glasses in the back. In the middle ground we can see two people cosplaying Silco and Vander. They are grabbing each other by the throats, Silco is sticking his tongue out dramatically.

after all, why not? why shouldn't we share more old man yaoi #zaundads #vanco
Cosplay photo of older Silco and Vander from Arcane season 2 episode 7. They are framed by blurry glass bottles placed on a shelf in the foreground. Their faces are close. Vander is gently touching Silco's jaw while Silco is looking at him intensely, focused on both the physical and emotional touch. The lighting is warm. Same framing and characters as in the first pic. Now Vander is kissing Silco very gently.

plus a closer look at the makeup
Single cosplay photo of Vander, with a closer look at the makeup. He has long salt-and-pepper hair and a full beard. There are wrinkles around his eyes and on his forehead. Closer look at Silco's makeup. His scars are still visible, but they look healed. He's also got wrinkles around his eyes, and grey in his hair.

first time cosplaying as s2ep7 #zaundads yippiiiie!
cosplay photo of Vander and Silco from Arcane in their outfits from the AU episode. They are old and in love, laughing together. Silco is holding on to Vander's arm. There are lensflares and sparkles in the foreground and background, and the lighting is warm. Another photo of the two together. We only see little of them because they are framed by alcohol bottles that are placed on a shelf in the foreground. Silco is gently touching Vander's cheek, and Vander is figuratively melting into his touch.

throwback to our #zauntrio shoot with @tesscourtes.bsky.social ❤️ this one is very dear to us bc it's based on the AMAZING art by @jujudisegnacose.bsky.social 🫶
Cosplay photo of young Vander, Felicia and Silco from Arcane. They are walking down an alley by night, laughing and holding on to each other. Felicia has her arms around both men's shoulders. Silco is giving someone the finger, and grabbing Vander's shirt with the other hand. Vander's arm is reaching around both, to grab Silco by his waist. The photo is recreating a piece of fanart by jujudisegnacose

you can see where we recycled pleather bc ofc it's peeling as it's too olddd. adds to the rough look though lmao. everything else is thrifted leather jackets or in case of the base, jul's own worn out jacket
side view with a good look on the right sleeve of young silco's leather jacket. there's a blue piece of fabric patched onto the leather with tape and staples close up shot of the right shoulder front. the buttons on the pauldron have been deformed to break with their clean circle look. the old pleather belt that we recycled here is peeling closer look at the right shoulder backside

side view showing off the left side of silco's leather jacket. you can see that it is made of several different pieces of leather in different shades of black and brown closer look at the left shoulder front. there's a slit in the jacket tacked together with staples and tape. you can see how the single parts of the pauldron are layered. they're connected with each other and the jacket with the help of round head fasteners
