Sikard (or Claudia) | Watercolour artist | I love colours, archaeology, old stuff, vampires | Sometimes I cosplay | she/her | eng/ger
Pinned
Hi to whomever happens to stumble in here.
I'm Sikard (or Claudia) and I like to use watercolours, sometimes in a more illustrative and sometimes in a more loose way. I'm particularly drawn to anything mystical, mythical and oooold.
Oh, and every once in a while I also cosplay.

Japan's "Mundane Halloween" costume contest is back!

Each year website DailyPortalZ holds a contest where people dress up as something super duper ordinary.

Here's a thread of some of my favorites from the 2025 contest!

@blazingskies.bsky.social I won't be attending Sonic Con UK, so I've got one Early Entry Ticket for sale at the original price. Anyone interested?

RIP Renato Casaro, an Italian artist known for his film posters.
He passed away yesterday at the age of 89.

🎵 Time toohoo say goodbyeheee 🎵

This box was unearthed in the attic and contains (parts of) my oldest cosplays. The nostalgia is hitting but let's not pretend that these can be worn again (and not just because I'm not the same size I was as a teen...) 😂

(Sorry, tiny pics are tiny 😅)

Today I wanted to teach myself how to use Blender.

Instead I'm now looking at graphics card prices since my 9-years old card is hardcore struggeling with 4k. And by struggeling I mean it just shuts down 🙃

(Setting my monitor to 1080p did unfortunately not solve anything. It just crashed later.)

Da es nix mit Nyx wurde, musste ich den Schrank mit alten Cosplays plündern, aber das ist auch OK. Eska und Yennefer habe ich schon lange nicht mehr getragen und der Vorteil wird sein, dass ich mir keine Gedanken machen muss, überall hängen zu bleiben xD

Vielleicht bleibe ich auch ganz zivil.

It's astonishing how I'm suprised-pikachu-face everytime I try to pack my stuff into a smaller luggage for a convention.

Who would've thought that a costume might take up more space than a tshirt and a pair of jeans 🙃
Not to mention all those extra shoes and boots.

Me: "Why did I buy so much fabric? I don't need all of that."

*proceeds to cut everything too small*

"Boy am I glad I still have so much fabric." 🙃

I'm surprised to find my little hometown already on the list!
Unfortunately I can't add anything more of value 😕
I've started a new list!
This one is about medieval towns, villages & cities with bathhouses.
It's a work in progress but it would be cool if you could all contribute.
So if you find any mention of a medieval bathhouse with a source, let me know.

List of medieval towns, villages & cities with bathhouses
As it’s sometimes still difficult to comprehend how common (or uncommon) bathhouses were in medieval Europe, I thought it might be interesting to make a list of all the places that had a func…

I'm currently re-reading "Queen of the Damned" by Anne Rice (I first read it over 20 years ago) and that's the book where she goes into the origin of vampirism.

As someone with a degree in Near Eastern archaeology I'm dying a little inside and I can't fully turn my brain off 😩

I've been outside for five minutes and I'm already melting. Not looking forward to the next four hours 🫠

Time to start a Cosplay WIP thread! 🧵

I'm going for Nyx from Hades because I spent more than enough time playing the game (haven't played Hades II yet) and because she looks amazing.

Am I already getting a headache just thinking about making and wearing that wig? Absolutely :D

Me while sewing my cosplay: "You don't need to make it a science."

Continues to measure and calculate when eyeballing would do just fine
