Our very own @turtlesmithy.bsky.social in his M-02 set! He used a combination of powders for a custom set of Sapphire with Ruby tips.

Our M-01 horn set was one of the first we ever made! @mimicrycosplay.bsky.social became our apprentice while we were adjusting the masters and remaking molds as they wore out.
Ethan casted his own sapphire horn set pictured here!

We have Genyaapa (IG) modeling our F-04 set! They picked a green garb to match the emerald highlights of the horns. 💚

Assuming it’s the same Glamoured to Life event this year, my costume lineup will likely be Sphene and G’raha! My goal will be finishing my props so I can finally get nice photos of both.

Kyle will bring Thancred for sure, and maybe we’ll figure out another casual Dark Knight or NPC outfit.

Here’s the lovely @yayahan.bsky.social modeling our F-03 horn set! Requests for Amethyst horns/tails were popular at the time, and for this set we played around with some additional colors for a pink to violet gradient.

Forced break time!

I am taking my fancy machine in to get serviced (nothing wrong but it’s been a while). Nice is wearable, and I have a good month or so before I need to have the optional armor done.

Going to catch up on some reading this week.

We sat down with Toshiyuki Itahana, the character designer of Sphene, for a chat on how the Queen of Alexandria came to life in FFXIV! 🎨✨

Our F-02 set modeled by @courageofstars.bsky.social !

The paint job was a fun experiment with various metallic powders plus blue dye to create a twilight sky look.

We do offer custom colors on our dragon sets, with pricing dependent on complexity/number of colors

Last year we brought a bunch of our dragon horns to a cabin trip with friends, and they modeled for us!

First up is @mahoumaddie.bsky.social wearing our F-01 set with gold highlights; her smiles are contagious! 💖
She edited this photo herself as well

I tried to open my Twitter back up yesterday, but my feed was like the ball pit of OG Dashcon.

It is private once again. Tbh, I’ve been struggling a little here too. I’ve gravitated back to IG as my primary social. Adding music to my posts is nice.
