Can I pose my face well? No. Have I slept enough? Also no. Are the contact lenses comfy after a long day? Not so much. BUT the wig does fit roughly and only needs a little more tweaking to get it to sit right. Also need to pin the mask in place better too. #CosplayWIP #CosplayTest #Hades2 #Hypnos

I'm trying so hard to get embroidery going and keep working on the cosplay but loafing on my lap wasn't enough for Jetsam he simply had to climb up my chest, put his paws on my shoulder, and flop so I have to lean back and hold him with at least one arm Sir please I have so much to do! #cats

More progress! Testing the embroidery files and they really do take forever. The one on the right I used the colours that the machine told me to, but for the one on the left I picked some of them myself to be a better match to my art. Just...a lot more to go! #Hypnos #Hades2 #HadesGame #CosplayWIP

Another #CosplayWIP update for #Hypnos #Hades2Hypnos #HadesCosplay #HadesGame Finished 40 hours of styling on the wig, and probably another 5 hours on the eye mask (including making a test piece to check the design and sizing, which I may keep as a spare for people to use for photos at MCM?...)

WE'RE BACK! We'll be bringing back the BG3 Fan Meets to MCM London May 2026! More details coming soon - join our Discord server for more information, help us decide when we should host & get to know fellow BG3 fans! Please note, these fan meets are 18+ only. #mcmlondon #bg3fanmeet #mcmfanmeet

One day, I might be able to be invited to something - a meal out, a party, a special event - and just...turn up. That'd be nice. Unfortunately the present reality is that an invitation means research, working out if it's accessible, if the information is correct, if... I'm so tired. #disabled

More progress on the #Hypnos cosplay - this is around 30 hours of work on the wig, as I've been taking each tiny section and coating it in glue stick on both sides, making sure it's smooth, then pressing in each wave of the curls one by one with a straightener. #Hades2 #HadesGame #CosplayWIP

This is going to be my final line-up! Next step, work out measurements for the pyjamas and get the pattern cut out and start testing the embroidery patterns. *Hopefully* I have all the colours I need! #HadesGame #Hades2 #HadesGameFanArt #Hypnos #Hades2Hypnos #HadesGameCosplay #CosplayWIP

4 more added today - #icarus #aphrodite #apollo #hades and #persephone I changed the angle for Hades and Persephone too, the in-game icon has them angled slightly away from each other but for this version I thought it'd be cute to have them leaning towards each other like that's how they sleep 🥰💖🥰

Bringing back my BG3 Valentines too because...I keep...forgetting...to do new ones... #BG3FanArt #BG3 #BG3Emperor #ValentineCards #BG3Valentines

More characters initial drawings done! #Polyphemus doesn't have a chibi so I tried to design one for him to be like the others. 12 more main ones to go plus 5 more extras like Polyphemus who don't have icons! (They're all re-drawn from scratch still and altered) #Hades2 #HadesGame #HadesFanArt

Making progress on drawing all the chibi icons for the Hypnos-jammies! Decided to go with sleepy versions rather than direct copies, but still trying to keep them close to the original designs as I redraw them! #cosplay #hadesgame #hadesfanart #melinoe #moros #hecate #dora #nemesis #zeus #eris

So my husband needed to go to the shop earlier and said if I want anything to let him know and he'll get it for me I turned to him and yelled: CHEEEEEEEESE!!! "We already have cheese?" "Sorry, I meant *cream* cheese, not *scream* cheese"

Time and again I remember how wonderful the conventions in London are - where everyone's having fun, celebrating fandoms, and the unapologetically and openly LGBTQIA+ vibes are *flawless*. So many stalls with pride themed merch or decorations, and the welcoming, loving atmosphere. It's the best💖

Can't remember if I put it here before but I'll share again anyway - full build book for The Dark Urge is here on my Google Drive free to read if you like! docs.google.com/document/d/1... My top tip for Cosplay? Try things! Sometimes it works! Sometimes it won't and that's ok too! #BG3Cosplay

Best craftsmanship in the entirely handmade class! #cosplay #bg3cosplay #thedarkurge #durge

Hopefully the materials for #Hypnos #cosplay will arrive this week! Or at least some of them. I need to plan out the pattern fully before I buy the fabric... But I got the wig for xmas and have a crimper and some glue on the way - it's going to be a new adventure in wig styling! #Hades2 #HadesGame

Bhaalgown #Durge is going to #MegaConLondon and I'll be in the competition! It was a very last minute but I've got all my pre-judging forms sent in so it'll only be some quick fixes and ironing/steaming the dress and I'm all good to go! Hope to see some familiar faces 🥰 #DarkUrge #BG3DarkUrge

My next #cosplay plan (to start in JANUARY or so help me you need to stage an intervention) will be #Hypnos from #Hades2 - but I don't know what to make to go under the blanket he "wears" (I'm not wearing my birthday suit) so... Vote time? I'll describe the options in replies, most likes will win!

"What does it look like from inside the Durge mask?" Shadowed and a bit blurry/fuzzy. Or rather: "it's Dark in the Urge"

AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!! Sorry let me translate... I was given an honourable mention at MCM's masquerade competition! Which is a free ticket for next year and I'm still buzzing! My thanks to Neikai on Instagram for the photos! #BG3 #BG3Durge #TheDarkUrge #BG3Cosplay

Said it before and I'll say it again - I love cosplay. I love spending the day in a character's shoes and seeing the passion for the franchise. It is also just endless joy to be able to chat to people about the character and costume instead of strangers asking about my wheelchair. It feels *normal*

Wonderful to see everyone today at #mcmlondon! Reasy to do it all again tomorrow! Though ny butler will be taking the day off from his outfit and modifying the face for Sunday so he can drink and talk easier. #TheDarkUrge #BG3DarkUrge #BG3Cosplay #Durge #BG3 #SceleritasFel

8 hours of painting later... It's still drying, and the white on the tongue will hopefully dry clear or saliva-like as it's just thick mod podge. Just got to leave it all to dry now and glue in some extra padding in the morning when I check the fit on my head one last time. #BG3Cosplay #CosplayWIP

*Almost* there now! The bottom edge of the dress (gold pleating) needs to be sewn on and the head needs to be painted, and a couple of other minor tasks but the #BG3DarkUrge Bhaalgown is so close to complete now! It has been a real labour of love (and pain) but I'm proud of it! #BG3Cosplay #Cosplay

If I have time to print these for #MCMLondon there will be stickers - but what colour should they be? I could do 2 colours for "I resisted" and 2 colours for "I embraced" but they probably all want to be paler colours. Any opinions? They should be on holo paper 💖 #BG3 #BG3Durge #BG3DarkUrge #BG3Art

Many hours of babysitting the embroidery machine along with some errors, fails, file issues, and one huge tangle that had me terrified...the crossbelt details are embroidered onto the pieces, almost ready to assemble! I don't want to do this ever again it was agonising. #CosplayWIP #BG3DarkUrge

More progress for #BG3DarkUrge Bhaalgown - it's looking more like a dress than a pile of cloth now but still so much to go - currently hand stitching the lining to the shoulders. #CosplayWIP #BG3Cosplay

Finally. Got the chest piece embroidery pattern to work, and it's done after half a day of watching it and changing threads and snipping excess and aligning *4 times* The shoulders and hips are also nearly done, so the dress might be ready to assemble tomorrow #BG3Cosplay #CosplayWIP #BG3DarkUrge

The next time I confidently say "I'm going to make [character] as a ballgown" I need one of you to sedate me - I'm fighting this with so little time left to pull it together and the instructions on this patter for the pleating on the skirt is going to drive me well past the edge of madness 😅🙃🙀

Trusting. The. Process. #CosplayWIP #BG3Cosplay #BG3DarkUrge

If anyone knows how to work with a Janome MemoryCraft 350e and JEF files, I would *really* appreciate some help as I'm struggling with the machine and running shorter and shorter on time to get it working #Janome #machineembroidery #sewinghelp #sewingmachinehelp

...trust the process. Trust. The. Process. #CosplayWIP #DarkUrgeBG3

The head piece. It begins. ...it was the only pencil I could find easily so let's not judge that it was from last December lol Anyway. Let's see how this goes. I need more fabric for the dress so I can't sew it yet.

It messed up a bit by the end so I'm going to get my machine looked at before I do the final one that'll be on the dress but... Stillmaker looks alright. I need to change just 1 or 2 things to the embroidery file, and I think this might be almost ready to succeed... It takes ~3 hours on the machine

Our rebrand is complete!🥳 We've updated our server and our socials for our new name and we would love to have you join us on Discord. If a place where creativity, real art and cosplay is what you're looking for, then this is the place for you! 🧡 discord.gg/3tGs75wBTe

Playing some #Hades2 so I can literally Kill Time whilst keeping an eye on the embroidery machine for my BG3 cosplay. Like most well adjusted people would do whilst suffering a huge pain flare on a Sunday night less than a month before a convention...

The embroidery struggles continue...Nailed it with the test piece for the skirt border, but the more complex pieces are still testing the limits of creative masochism 😭 I honestly still can't work out why the machine won't recognise the more complex files. I've checked all the limits and parameters

Another day, another failed embroidery design... Going to try again at the weekend, I have another idea that might help which is essentially "make it bigger" but I fear I'm also likely making silly mistakes in the settings like with the fine tuning of row spacing etc It'd almost be faster by hand😅

Alright, I have the base pattern, the fabrics, and all the other materials so this is the plan to turn this dress pattern into a more Durge style Bhaalgown Current task - work out the dagger embroidery patterns before I even think about cutting out the pattern pieces. Exciting! #CosplayWIP #BG3

3 hours drawing Stillmaker, another 1 hour converting that into a sewing file for the machine, 80mins sewing... I need to completely redo it tomorrow because it absolutely did not work. Aside from not picking out the detail (and that I got one or two colour changes wrong at the start), it tangled😱😭

Today's Durge progress: - Undershirt base made (need to put scales on the shoulders) - Second glove finished - Obtained a killer headache - Would kill for a cup of tea (that's the real murderous Dark Urge, for a cuppa, preferably a huge one) The shirt is crop length so I don't overheat #CosplayWIP

Summer is nearly over but it's not too late for a holiday! Bring your homework with you, Us is hungry 😉 (Made by a friend 🥰💖🥰) #TheEmperor #BG3Emperor #illithid #BG3meme #BG3 #BG3Cosplay
