Dark. Added Dragon AU easter eggs in some of these shots, can you find them?

Though I'm not the biggest fan of TGCF, I could listen to Qi Rong's potty mouth for days.

LWJ Cosplay Log - Master Post

Making Lan Wangji

(AKA My Lan Zhan Cosplay Log)

This went from a historical project to cosplaying all the Hanguang-Jun, Lan Wangji in existence!  The main concept is Lan Wangji’s (LWJ) novel/manhua/audio drama design.  As the project started pre-pandemic, I didn’t consider the butler or dragon au in the design.  That would be too much.  There is a dash of videogame in him since there were some details I liked in that model.  If the title is “Mo Dao Zu Shi” then I have incorporated Lan Wangji’s description and concept arts into my design.  

Lan Wangji as known in The Untamed was generally avoided save for a tiny nod to the show’s Gusu Lan Clan.  “Mo Dao Zu Shi” Wangji and “Untamed” Wangji are distinct in my opinion.  Neither is superior from the other, just different enough that I need to pick one interpretation to play with.  The actors of Untamed, especially Xiao Zhan, really claimed the characters as their own and portrayed them wonderfully.  Wang Yibo’s Wangji is his Wangji, I won’t interfere that.  If you want to see that interpretation of Lan Wangji, then go watch the show.  It already exists.

A few caveats before you dive in:

1)     I am not a seamstress or tailor so I don’t know all the proper sewing terminology in English or any other language 2)     Also, modern romanization of Chinese confuses the shit out of me, a native speaker, so apologies for any spelling mistakes.  The Yale Romanization made so much more sense but then China thought they understood the English alphabet better than native English speakers so here we are.  Do as the Romans do, I guess. 3)     I am not a historical costumer either so all my info come from conjecture and research 4)     I am not a Chinese historian but I like to think I know enough about my history and culture through osmosis and the hell-hole disguised as Chinese school to talk about it 5)     I am not trying to make an authentic historical costume, I’m trying to make an anachronistic fantasy costume. Historicity went out the window the minute LWJ and every adult character decided to have their hair down.  I did try to make a semi-historically accurate version?  Depended on the mood at time of construction. 6)     I suck at being Chinese apparently so that will be my safety net if everything fails horribly :P

LWJ is certified waterproof! I know this because every shoot I've had with this one has involved copious amounts of water. First studio shoot was a water shoot in a DIY pool. Second one was a location shoot that rained all day. Everything survived except for the headpieces so you might see LWJ changing up his hairdo on occasion...(I am the proud owner of 2 ratty wigs :D)

Location shoot for LWJ at Dongying a Toei film studio. This was a full gear shoot as in I was carrying all props for a full 7 hours, wandering around town in the rain. No wonder LWJ needs those broad shoulders.

Also, finally a photographer who had an eye for detail! No one has successfully captured all the fine details until now. Here you can see the hand-embroiered shuzhou embroidery to the 3D printed and resin-casted jade belt. and more in great detail. Look at it! I spent 2 years on it. Take a nice long look!

Happy New Year!!

What a wild start to the year! We're beginning with some surprise redecoration from a huge earthquake. Hope this year keeps up the excitement but not like that.

Obligatory Christmas Post. Happy Holidays everyone!! At risk of getting repetitive and sappy…

良い年を〜😘 Time passes and I have more photos to make a mosaic. There was a time I only had 4 tiles to work with. The base image is kinda stark but it was so sharp I didn’t want to mess with it. Photographers good luck on finding your photo…on my face! 😜

Thank you to all that stuck with me during the hiatus, new fans, and all the talented people I had the opportunity to collaborate with. I am grateful to you all. It really keeps me inspired to continue making art.
