Okay, just one more, because I forgot how much I liked these two. Koalakid’s fairy costumes, photographed by me.

The only real full-on shot of our SWaTH costumes, debuted at D*C this year. The costumes were both fully crafted by us. Thor made the amazing feather cloak and her crown and dress while I drafted my own pattern for Snow’s outfit. Didn’t have as much time as I wanted to work on it…missing a lot of the fine detailing and trim that made me love the costume in the first place…but some specs: -outer green dress is hand dyed faux suede with red suede lining -under dress has a hand-weathered hem that I dirtied using brake dust (yup, as in right from the hubcap) and coffee grounds. Didn’t show near well enough in the photos.  If anyone sees any more pics of us from the con floating around, would you mind shooting a link my way?

My friend who is going to cosplay Thor did herself up as Emma Frost today. Extremely impressive.  And Siffy was a hardcore werewolf from Teen Wolf!

I have the best friends.

This is a really derpy snarling pic. This one’s better. Photobucket

Finished with costume no. 1, Pepper Potts based on this pic. The sports bra is intended to be worn under the semi-sheer grey tank. Both LED sets are attached to hidden battery packs.

It’s been a while, but the finishing touches are coming together for my Sif costume. A friend of Lopti’s graciously offered to make me some chain mail accents for the costume and I am excited out of my mind to implement them. Here’s some info on this incredible piece:

Ring count: 14,185

Hours to make: 120

Amount of wire used: 430 feet
