After what feels like a million years and as many rhinestones, I FINALLY have the front panel of Christine's skirt completed! I'll soon be able to start assembly on the actual garments 💕 . . . #cosplay #cosplaywip #christinedaae #christinedaaecosplay #christinecosplay #phantomoftheopera #phantomoftheoperacosplay #phantomoftheopera2004 https://instagr.am/p/CSrUUr8DnQd/

It's the last day of the year, seems like a good time to recap 2019! I actually put together two costumes this year, but at the con I was so focused on hanging out with friends that I completely forgot about pictures, so I only have one portrait of Caleb (by the lovely @ela.common.room) and one blurry selfie of Calianna 😅 I promise I'm working on them and next time I'll remember to take photos! I also spent about 6 months on Christine's skirt embroidery, which is still not finished but is getting there, so if everything goes well I can finish the costume in 2020 🤞 But you guys seemed to enjoy my works in progress, so I'll try to keep you updated 😉 I'm really looking forward to what's coming next year! Hope you'll all want to stick with me for that 💕 . . . #Cosplay https://ift.tt/35bmDau

Lillie selfies through the years, and I still haven't done a full photoshoot in this costume 😂 She's just my go-to comfy summer cos, I want to shoot her on a beach with palm trees but there aren't many of those around when you live 200km from the sea 🏖️ . . . #Cosplay #Lillie #pokemonlillie #lilliecosplay #pokemon #pokemoncosplay #pokemonsunandmoon #pokemonsun #pokemonmoon #cosplaysidebyside #Cosplaycomparison #cosplaythroughtheyears #cosplayprogress #cosplayimprovement https://ift.tt/2Qje4Iz

I added darts and boning, and I'm much happier with the shape! I still need to fix some little details but now I'm confident I won't have to start over which is nice. The paint I used on the crown also turned out to be a perfect color match to the faux leather! I haven't finished the paint job because I'm out of brown paint but I'm pretty proud of it so far. . . . #Cosplay #cosplaywip #anora #anoramactir #dragonage #dragonageorigins #dragonagecosplay #sewing #sewingwip #costumer #costumemaking #costuming #costumedesign #costumedesigner http://bit.ly/2WRpGk5

I'm slowly chipping away at the first sunburst! This is definitely going to take a while, hopefully I can wrangle someone to help me out 🙏 . . . #Cosplay #cosplaywip #sewing #sewingwip #embroidery #embroiderywip #christinedaae #christinedaaecosplay #phantomoftheopera #phantomoftheoperacosplay http://bit.ly/2W4GPai

While I'm on my way to Düsseldorf for DoKomi, I might as well post my line-up! I'm excited to wear Lillie again after two years, and to finally get some pictures 💕 If you're going as well, hit me up, I'd love to hang out! 😘 . . . #Cosplay #dokomi #dokomi2019 #cosplaylineup http://bit.ly/2QNpe4C

Put the final touch to my new Anora crown! I designed it from scratch and I'm pretty proud of myself for this one 😊 I'll put the print file up on Thingiverse soon, in case you guys want to print your own :) . . . #Cosplay #cosplaywip #anora #anoramactir #dragonage #dragonageorigins #dragonagecosplay #anoracosplay #3dprinting #3dprint #3dprinter #Cosplayjewelry #3dprinted http://bit.ly/2Yy2TL1

I don't have much to show, but Christine is slowly progressing! It definitely won't be finished for DoKomi, I'd rather take my time to get her to the level I want, so I'm bringing Lillie back, hopefully I'll get some photos this time, and I will also bring the 1910 dress I just altered to my size! . . . #Cosplay #cosplaywip #sewing #sewingwip #embroidery #embroiderywip #christinedaae #christinedaaecosplay #phantomoftheopera #phantomoftheoperacosplay http://bit.ly/2LOjNDX

Hand sewing this entire thing is kicking my ass (if you look closely you can see under my nail where I stabbed myself with my needle 😢) but it's really turning out nice, and once it's done I'll be able to use it for a bunch of plans I have! . . . #Cosplay #cosplaywip #costume #costumewip #costumer #costumemaking #costuming #christinedaae #christinedaaecosplay #phantomoftheopera #phantomoftheoperacosplay #trulyvictorian #trulyvictorianpatterns #trulyvictorian103 #crinoline http://bit.ly/2V4mroP

Introducing: my new logo! I've been meaning to replace my other logo that I just threw together in a monogram maker for wedding invites for a while now, so I commissioned weapestudio on fiverr and this is the result! I'm really happy with it 😊 . . . #Cosplay #cosplayer #branding #logo http://bit.ly/2S9yymp

New Firekeeper picture! Taken by @demorafairy with a cape flip courtesy of @alilenvyious 😉 I look a bit goofy because I was having a lot of fun and had this huge grin on my face!

A new 3d printing project? I'm still struggling to get Fusion 360 to do what I want but I think I have the main shapes pretty much down. I've looked around for a model for Zelda's pauldrons but I wasn't able to find one that I liked so it's an opportunity to learn! . . . #Cosplay #cosplaywip #3d #3dmodel #3dwip #3dprinting #3dprint #3dprinted #3dprintedcosplay #zelda #zeldacosplay #zeldafan #princesszelda #princesszeldacosplay #legendofzelda #legendofzeldacosplay http://bit.ly/2UwSyNF

Progress! I'll probably tweak the placement of things before I actually sew it together, since it's a bit wonky in certain spots. I still need to have something in the middle to keep it in shape or it curls in on itself, not sure how to resolve it, maybe I'll spend some time blow drying it to see if it helps. . . . #Cosplay #cosplaywip #christine #christinedaae #phantomoftheoperacosplay #phantomoftheopera #christinedaaecosplay #christinedaaé #sewing #sewingwip #costumer #costumemaking #costuming #trulyvictorian #trulyvictorianpatterns #trulyvictorian103 https://ift.tt/2Do3YOj

I'd say Juli's wig is about done! Now I can do a makeup test soon, though I still haven't found the shoulder patch I made for her 🤔 . . . #Cosplay #cosplaywip #juli #julikidman #julicosplay #julikidmancosplay #tew #theevilwithin #theevilwithincosplay #wig #wigwork #wigstyling #cosplaywig #wigisfashion https://ift.tt/2rthKbc

Here's the result of yesterday's trek to Goldhawk Road, I found this really pretty chiffon that's blue with a bit of a pink shift, so I bought a meter of it to use as Anastasia's sash 💙 My supply stash for her is getting quite respectable, so she'll probably be coming right after Christine, if I don't get distracted by another project 😅 . . . #Cosplay #fabric #fabrichaul #sewing #anastasia #anastasiacosplay https://ift.tt/2Ptu0Gl

Thank you all so much for the love you've been giving my Firekeeper posts 😭💕 I have more of that coming your way so stay tuned! I didn't include Anora in my year by year slides but she deserves a post of her own after the hell that was her belt... Thing. I want to do another Dragon Age costume soon, I've had my eye on the mage Grey Warden uniform for a while, what do you think? . . . #Cosplay #anora #anoramactir #dragonage #dragonageorigins #dragonagecosplay #anoracosplay #cosplayer #cosplaygirl #cosplayergirl #cosplayersofinstagram #frenchcosplayer #frenchcosplay #french #arda #ardawigs #ardastyle #sidebyside #cosplaysidebyside #Cosplaycomparison #cosplayvscharacter #charactervscosplay https://ift.tt/2Q7Crbn
