“I’m asking you to open your heart... to chaos.”💕🍭🧁 Fun collab I worked on with both We Love Colors and Jacquard products and this project couldn't be possible without the artist Cyethefox! #cosplay #cosplayer #criticalrole #mightynein #jesterlavorre #mightyneincosplay

normalize seeing a media property you actively dislike and going “eh, isn’t for me, hope the fans are having fun” and muting the series name

The Traveler appears to Jester and reassures her, saying, "You were my first, and you will always be my favorite." Jester is me! Traveller is @poisonskye.bsky.social #mightynein #criticalrole #cosplay #jesterlavorre #thetraveller #mightyneincosplay

I binged all 12 episodes and here are all my thoughts, I left things vague to avoid spoilers for those who haven't read the books, and if you have, watch it with an open mind, they did make some changes that still make for an interesting story even with the deviations from the books! Overall 8/10

A third of the way through! I forgot to state that I'm intentionally keeping things vague for potential watchers and readers!

I JUST LEARNED MY FAVORITE BOOK SERIES GOT MADE INTO AN ANIME THE VISUALS ARE STUNNING NOT ONLY THAT BUT THE AUTHOR IS AN EXECUTIVE PRODUCER DO I HAVE FAITH STAY TUNED FOR MY THOUGHTS

Still need to make the bandana then this outfit will be off to a new home! #cosplay #upcycling #sewing #labubu #labubuthemonsters

Reviving that Merida wig kinda makes me miss when I cosplayed her 😩 My own wig for her needs some serious TLC and unfortunately that dress was sacrificed for it's pattern and then lost to a move 😭 #cosplay #cosplayer #disney #disneycosplay #brave #merida #disneyprincess

"The Ballet Class" (princess tutu edition) #Art #PrincessTutu

Toph Beifong Bun Tutorial! I wear mine pinned over a Epic Cosplay Chronos wig and just tuck the excess into the bun. It's the same wig I originally used when I first made the cosplay years ago! #cosplay #tutorial #wig #wigtutorial #wigstyling #cosplaytutorial

Posting some emotional support Jester pic, I love this one in particular, most of the time I just feel cute, but this is a pic where I feel powerful! Cosplay made by me! 📸: @joeldcastrophotography Character belongs to @laurabaileyvo.bsky.social #cosplay #criticalrole #mightynein #jesterlavorre

Finished a resetting commission! I love resetting wigs and offer: -Full reset (wash, comb out, & back to straight) -Reforming curls -Dematting wigs I love being able to save a wig from being trashed and giving them a second chance at life! #cosplay #wig #cosplaywig #wigcommission #disney #merida

I'm almost entirely unaffected by the major pattern companies going under because they don't make patterns in my size. As a plus sized cosplayer, heres where I get my patterns:

"The world is a lot bigger than your cemetery." Caduceus made by @rennacosplay.bsky.social Caduceus worn by @tealeafcosplay.bsky.social Jester made & worn by me! 📸: Joel D Castro Photography #cosplay #cosplayer #criticalrole #mightynein #jesterlavorre #caduceusclay

Not me trying to bribe my self that if I finish two elements for the cosplay with a deadline, I can then start the cosplay I had ZERO plans for and nearly all the materials already on hand.

I'm so happy to have a new Jester Lavorre to wear!! Tried out the 1780s stays pattern from Clockwork Faerie & only mods I made was lengthening a bit & fully boning the stomacher, wore them all day and it was so comfy! Def will be using this pattern again! Cosplay made by me! #criticalrole #cosplay

"...I just want to read the book Caleb" "You want to read it yourself?" "Well, I mean..." "I could read it to you if you want" Caleb is @noclouds.bsky.social Jester is me! #cosplay #cosplayer #criticalrole #criticalrolecosplayer #mightynein #mightyneincosplay #calebwidogast #jesterlavorre

It's Thursday and I now have a back log of Level 10 Jester😂 Finally have a pic with my Fortunes Favor scroll I bought from Critical Role like 5 years ago lol Cosplay made by me! Photo by @mint.chocolate.studios #criticalrole #jesterlavorre #criticalrolecosplay #mightynein

thinking a lot about how autism and other disabilities would be less of an issue if accommodations and accessibility were just a given and not a thing to be fought for

Selling some wigs! $10 each, free shipping with 3+ I have more wigs in the highlights on my Instagram!

AS A OGRE FIONA COSPLAYER IM OBLIGATED TO ANNOUNCE THAT SHREK 5 IS OUT NEXT YEAR IF YOU THOUGHT I WAS UNBEARABLE BEFORE, IM ABOUT TO GET A WHOLE LOT WORSE #shrek

WORTH IT

adding to that list of do not buy for stashing: pleather! a ton of modern pleather rarely stands the test of time, even when stored in a temperature controlled space. i have pleather stuff from years ago that looks fine if you don't move it, but the minute it folds, it crumbles to pieces.

Hey, old school cosplayers, can any of you help answer a question that @cosplaytology.bsky.social and I have? Neither of us have any of our old Amphigory wigs on hand and while we know Amphigory was relabeled Sepia and New Look, we can’t remember if they ever had Amphigory tags in the nape!

Video on how I made them is up now! youtu.be/XCZGzLKStE4?...

My pro-crafts-ination project was spending a day making myself #chappellroan merch😅 Did film the process and nearly done editing, hope to get it up this week! #leather #accessories #crafting #crafty

I really really need you guys to make a conscious rejection of generative AI tools part of your ongoing political resistance. Don't use ChatGPT. Turn off Gemini. Don't read the AI results forced upon you at the top of Google search. Don't use AI art generators or support anyone who does. Please.

Can't share progress on my Ren Faire cosplay, so here's a before and after of reshaping a hand basket I got at the goodwill bins! What accessories should I add? #cosplay #renfaire #azrenfaire

How Brennan Lee Mulligan feels about food I feel about my cosplays. I want there to be HEFT, I wanna test the limits of the zippers on my suitcase and the how close I can get to the 50lb limit for checked bags at the airport. Is it cosplay or wearable weighted blankets?😂 📸: @dtjaaaam.bsky.social

As a fellow Ace, I know I know more about kinks and kink culture than the average pride attendee, I'm ace, not blind and def not uninformed😂 While some Ace may be sex repulsed, majority are either sex positive or neutral.

Jester & The Traveler - @criticalrole.bsky.social It was really nice to get an actually good photo together finally 🥰 Jester - @cosplaytology.bsky.social Traveler - me 📸 @dtjaaaam.bsky.social #ALA2025 #criticalrole #jester #thetraveler #artagan

The benefits of being a plus sized Sewist nobody talks about: When you're hella squishy, you don't need to add closures, you can just adjust the squish until it's on. In other news, I continue my avoidance of zippers because I hate sewing them in.

This cosplay was made from fabric from my favorite dead stock fabric store Fabricmart as part of their Fashionista program! Checkout Fabricmarts blog to read about the details of my sewing this cosplay! Accessories printed by w13rdostudios Photographer is costog.gen #cosplay #toiletboundhanakokun

The way I've been crafting like an insane person's for the last few weeks💀 What's worse is I keep lying to myself saying I won't sew after ALA, but I jump right into my next Fabricmart project😂 For now enjoy Frieren nearly complete!

Posting this here to hold myself accountable: I wanna actually do photoshoots and give my work, especially my competition pieces, a chance to shine. Even if it's just me at home with my phone, I want more photos.
