This weekend I remembered that I had a bunch of pictures from my Valentine's day photoshoot I forgot to edit, so I worked on two 😅.

I think I overdid it a bit with raising heart's size, but otherwise, this is good 😅

Just spent the last month crafting Raising Heart. I don't know how to feel right now.

Finally for the wig, since it's an Arda, I went through it with a crimping iron. While I went for a natural look that doesn't show much crimping marks, the wig just doesn't tangle at all. Forgot to take pics of the finished front, but you can see it in the photoshoot pics anyway.

To hold the gem onto the ribbon, I used epoxy putty to glue hooks behind the backing foam. It was then a matter of sewing through the hooks to attach the gem.
June 26, 2025 at 8:22 PM
Next was casting the gem. Casting itself took roughly a week. There were some imperfections in the resin but I decided to roll with it. Made a base with foam and blue vinyl to house the gem and give it its color. #cosplaywip

I then ironed, cut and crafted bows. 5 were made in total: A big one for the back, and 4 smaller ones for the body + head. I kept the nicest looking one for the gem.

Let's finish the WIP thread before I start posting photoshoot pictures. So, I ended up dying white cotton fabric with blue dye. The result was fairly uneven, but I had enough fabric that it wouldn't matter much. #cosplaywip

It's surprisingly close to the real thing.

Might become a yeticon tradition, tbh.

Hello, Hello! I'm at a place called Yeticon!

I'm guilty too, btw

This week I finished the sleeves and then made the nightmare of all cosplayers: gloves. I'm starting to see the end, but still have a heart gem to cast, bows to make and boot covers to craft. I want to slightly dye the bows in blue, so that will be a new experience. #cosplaywip

With the bias tape sewn, the buttons added and the straps sewn, the dress is done! I added hidden hooks to the buttons in the front opening because the dress is very tight and 3 buttons is not enough to keep everything straight. #cosplaywip

I made frills out of white polyester for the bottom of the dress. Sew it at the same time as the bias tape that runs all around the dress.
May 19, 2025 at 7:50 PM
Again, I used the mock-up to cut the satin, assembled it, sewed the lining to the fabric, made the straps and top flap and assembled it all. Not pictured is me adding interfacing to the front panel where the buttons will be and adding bias to the top flap. #cosplaywip

I decided to continue working with satin and got started on the dress. My friend made the pattern for me so at least that was a bit easier. Again, I made a mock-up with the goal, this time, of using it as an inner lining.
