Completed: August 2017 Hours Spent: Under 5 Debuted: A-Fest 2017 Why This Costume: P5 took over my life in 2017.

Photographer Credits: Ash Snap 'Em Completed: October 2017 Hours Spent: Approximately 50 Why This Costume: Koholint Cosplay and I have this habit of dragging each other into various fandom hells.

Photographer Credits: Yogomi Completed: April 2017 Hours Spent: Maybe 5? Debuted: Dallas Fan Expo 2017 Why This Costume: One thing I'm terrible about making is comfortable costumes.

Almost as soon as Cosmic Coterie officially decided to tackle Madoka Magica for our big build this year, Koholint and I started brainstorming Madoka. We split the labor so that Koho took the upper half of Madoka and I took the lower half. I've followed several Madoka cosplayers over the years, and I was absurdly … Continue reading Madoka Magica: Madoka’s Petticoat & Skirt

Completed: February 2017 Hours Spent: About 40 hours How I made it: I know, I know. ANOTHER FUKU. I keep promising myself/y'all that I'm going to cool it with these, but apparently they're becoming one of my staples. For a long time I told myself I wouldn't take Super Moon commissions since I definitely prefer the gradient dyeing … Continue reading Commission Notes: Super Sailor Moon
I recently knocked out the first major portion of my Mami cosplay: the CRAZY ASS WIG! This wig was such a steep learning curve. Part of the reason I specifically chose Mami for our Coterie build (aside from her adorable design and the fact she's my favorite Madoka character) was because I wanted to flex … Continue reading Nightmares and Drill Curls
Completed: October 2016 Hours Spent: Approximately 30 Debuted: Anime North Texas Why This Costume: After A-Fest, the Cosmic Coterie crew decided we wanted to switch up our fukus a bit and decided we wanted to go Super!
