Turtlesmithycos and @malindachan here! We are a couple-owned Costume and Prop business based in central Missouri.
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. 💚

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.

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

For the ear color, we’re using a new bright green fur, but we haven’t added it to our listing swatches yet. If you need to order ears for this character and want the new color, shoot us a message on Etsy!

A new green fur!!!! Shown with Mint and Jade for comparison.

Will add to our fur listings once we’re a bit more caught up!

However, if you are planning to cosplay a certain groovy bunny man and need to order soon, ask for “Dancing Green” in your order notes, and we can swap out the shade!

Did you know? If you have a wig from either of these shops, we can help color match with our furs before you order (or the other way around)!
Arda, Coscraft, Kasou, Assist

If not using a wig from the listed shops, send us photos and we can help suggest the closest fur option 💖
