#transistor cosplay

[stelera]

Fun fact! My full-sized Transistor prop weights a whopping 33lbs and is not great to be carried at a con, so when not in it's case (which also has wheels) it also has a little bracket with wheels mounted on it so it can be rolled around a convention floor without getting dragged.

The bracket isn’t like skateboard trucks though, it’s just a bit of wood with foam padding on it. There’s a hole through the bottom of the transistor that the wheels bolt on through. And the wheels are free-spinning castor wheels which makes going around tight corners and navigating crowded conventions a little easier.

Video game protagonist with a huge fuckoff sword, except the sword has a little spar with roller-skate wheels on it projecting from the distal part of the blade’s back edge so that you can let it drag on the ground behind you without fucking up the tip.

Happy 10th Anniversary, Transistor! Last week I did a little mini shoot to celebrate, and it's finally time to post the photos.

Transistor is a special game to me, and, if you like Hades, I highly recommend checking it out. It's got a short but emotional story, and a clever combat system.

They want you back, I bet.

Well... so do I.

Parallel Play Week 2024

Day 1 - Fairytales

Woe, Parallel Play Week 2024 be upon ye! (For those uninitiated this is when I borrow the prompts of another ship week and play alongside them with my own blorbos because there's no one who will do a ship week with my obscure crossover ship and sometimes it's just nice to feel like a part of something. I will sit quietly in my corner and not disturb the ship week tags though.)

I searched for a bunch of different cultural fairytales that might have fit this prompt, but in the end I succumbed to my baser desires and made a Transistor AU, so it's more "Fiction" than "Fairytale."

I imagine the Akatsuki being the Camerata in this AU. Itachi is obviously Royce Bracket, Pain and Konan I think make a decent Grant and Asher Kendrell, and it would be really interesting for Sasori to be Sybil Reisz. You can insert any ship thoughts you would like in there, but I think he's the Akatsuki member most suited to being a flying multi-armed glitch monster.

Was mr nobody again for a con!i used different arm wraps the first day but it gave a rash so i quit the next day but 2 people got the costume and i got so happy!! I really need to sew the sleeves to elbow level cause the keep falling down but maybe next time

[capriccio-ffxiv]

In game cosplay of Red from Transistor! Weapon: Alexandrian Metal Guillotine, Turquoise Green Hat: Friendship Circlet (probably a better one exists; wanted to try to emulate the feathered collar thing she has) Top: Chrondite Top of Fending, Honey Yellow Gloves: Emperor's New Pants: No2 Type B Shoes: No2 Type B Jewelry is all Emperor's New except Palm Ear Cuffs & Ishgardian Knight's Ring which are there for character reasons and I didn't feel like removing them Hair: Fashionably Feathered

[riikasgarbagepile]

My project list is always so long, I’m working on so much stuff at once right now

but

i *have* to add Red’s concert dress and torn concert dress to the pile

i’ve been thinking about this for years and now’s the time methinks

[jamethinks]

I've mentioned this before but at my core I am a contrarian so I like to think away from the crowd. And so while working on a future fic (canceled) I had to decide what each of the Eden gang would do in school and professionally and how that would aid in the major themes of the story.

For that reason I kind of attached Anya to doing cultural studies even though a more natural progression would be law enforcement. Anya is the child of an immigrant (kinda) and grew in a blended family. Although it's not spoken about in the show itself this does impact Anya's understanding of the world. It starts with an interest in language and linguistics and evolves into a more general interest in culture and cultural preservation. (she's still a spy though lmao)

Similarly for Damian I actually had him doing macroeconomics, his experiences with Anya the Commoner expanding his knowledge and interest in the economy and the long term impact of war on economies. It thrives on his math skills but also relates to his current goal to be a politician as most politicians don't really study politics or political science. Although Economics isn't a very socially conscious discipline Macroecon does to some extent seek to better understand the world and the economic structures that define it.

Becky was a bit more complicated and it plays into her personal conflict between being an ideal Blackbell and doing what she actually loves. Becky loves fashion and art and wanted to go to fashion school but she felt that would be a waste of her skills and brilliance and instead thinks she should follow in her father's foot steps, deciding instead to study business/finance. At the time of the story she had dropped out as she couldn't handle the stress of it all.

The character I really wanted to talk about was Ewen. He wasn't a central figure in the WIP but his career hc was one I had a lot of fun with. Currently he is portrayed as being interested in science and space so astrophysics and engineering may seem like the most likely route but I had a different idea. The 60s and 70s were a big time for the computer science industry as computers were becoming for refined and powerful particularly with the introduction of transistors and eventually microprocessors. It was a new a blossoming science with a lot of potential applications and innovations. It also played a huge role in the Apollo missions and realizing the dreams of space travel. So I thought a more interesting career trajectory would be computer science, specifically CS in space travel and engineering. Again he is still working in space and keeping up with his main interests but now he's working with computers to advance the industry.

Obviously, I personally am interested in computers and midcentury computer development has always been a fascination for me so it is a bit of projection onto him. Like i cannot think of a better time to get into the industry while it was still in it's infantile stage and everyone was just so curious and excited. I also hc that he is into scifi and generic nerdy stuff. Like one storyline i had was them playing an early version of D&D (technically it came out after when the story was set but fuck off), dragging his friends to watch the planet of the ape movies, forcing everyone to do a star trek cosplay, I had a plotline where him and Anya go to Texas to visit the space station. Just making shit up honestly, I don't care he's a nerd now fuck right off.

[deadguydeathmatch]

Welcome to the Dead Guy Death Match Elimination Round!

Due to the broad nature of death as a concept, most of the submitted characters only received a few votes each causing a massive tie. I figured the fairest way to sort out this issue would be to hold an elimination round to let you guys vote on who you want to make it into the bracket.

There will be two elimination rounds the first of which will start on Monday the 3rd of April at 3pm BST and the second will start on Saturday the 8th of April at 3pm BST.

Elimination Round 1 will feature polls of 5 or 6 unrelated characters (all of the matchups were generated randomly) for you to vote on. The lowest voted character will be eliminated and all of the remaining options will progress to the bracket.

Elimination Round 2 will feature polls of differing numbers of characters from the same or similar media and only the highest ranked character among them will progress to the bracket, all of the others will be eliminated.

Both sets of polls will last 24 hours.

I've tried my best to only include official images for all of the characters on the polls but I'm not familiar with every series listed so, when the polls go up, if you notice I've used a fanart or cosplay image without permission or credit please let me know and I'll add credit and correct it for any future appearances of that character.

The matchups are listed under the read more and hyperlinked to the polls

I apologise if I’ve accidentally spelled something wrong or used a wrong name for something, I’m not familiar with every series listed.

There will be spoilers for many series ahead.
