She's hard at work on the panel for tomorrow

Hiya! I'm TriumphantBass, Colin, or TBass for short- I've been a cosplayer since 2020, and love working on big 3D printed props, comfortable washable fits, and fun gender presentation (I also stream when I can, and am a Timespinner Randomizer dev and former Rock Band Network author) Credits below

Hey uh bad news: I lied

Okay but what if Ghastly had different faces #pokemon

Panels I will be running at TCC next weekend!! Come learn some intermediate sewing skills and tailoring!!

Got runner up masters performance at youma, surprise I built a puppet, have a shitpost about it!!

Only one day until my performance is over and I get to share all the secret shitposting about my prop I've been doing in dms

My lineup for youmacon this weekend!! I'll be taking it easy and focusing on the contest, but find me to chat and hang out! I'll have badge ribbons for Vivi!

Anime aki day 0 so far: caramels made by nuns and new katamari game?

KATAMARI TIME

Kept myself busy at work today with a curved welt pocket sample and smocking practice

Good news, I can do my skit with my glasses totally fogged up and almost no visibility (I will be wearing contacts at the con, don't worry)

Finally watching new new Pokémon concierge and this is in fact solving all of my stress problems

Everyone please hold my future self to this promise: no more skits in mascots after Vivi

I made a couple of simple little mask chains for Aura and Vivi! Nobody will see the Vivi one while my head is on ofc but I wanted a cute little something for myself

Luna is talking me into cosplaying my favorite silksong boss when they do hornet and it's working (Note: I am a fake fan and have only watched it played, I suck at platforming)

Finished all of my stage props for youma and I gotta say I'm really excited to be doing performance for the first time in years!! This is going to be so cute and I have some very fun things I've held back posting

In case anyone is wondering how youma prep is going, today at work I listened to my skit audio on loop for two hours straight

Very excited to pre order podcast merch that means I will soon be the proud owner of two maps from podcasts. I think I'm going to designate a podcast map wall and hope other podcasts I love also release cool map posters

I've been quiet here bc I'm doing exciting things like moving furniture and repainting walls instead of cosplay, but also bc most of my remaining work is just rehearsing! I have a short list of finishing touches and repairs on Vivi but all the big projects, including stage props, are basically done

Forcing myself to take a break from crafting and rehearsal for a bit but unfortunately the only game my brain wants to play is the new katamari and it isn't out yet :(

Got my skit recorded for youma submission tonight and y'all are not ready for how cute this is

Luna just said they like the stage prop I have spent one month building better than the costume I have spent almost four years on. I'm filing for divorce

Both my tcc panels got accepted!! Schedule and lineup tbd but very excited to yap about tailoring and seam finishing!!

I will have ribbons at youma!! But they relate to the secret part of my skit so I'm not posting what they are in advance whoops

Working on vivi's build book and trying to remember what my process was 3 years ago sure is an adventure. Anyway taking bets on number of pages this is going to be lmao

Thinking about making cute mask chains themed to my cosplays.....

Had a very fun and social weekend where I barely worked on cosplay at all!! The upside of stretching my crunch out over three months is still getting to hang out with friends and do fun things

At fest today!!

So, just ignore the fact that I’m using my Frieren staff right now 😹 Elk is almost good to go! Still need to tweak a few things (hem the pants, finish the wig, shorten the hat a bit, etc), but he’s definitely coming with me to MAG! 🙌

if i’ve ever tricked you into thinking signet is cool know that she canonically unwinds by hiring sex workers to do dishes while pretending to be her girlfriend 📸 @allyspock.bsky.social

I love her

Got announced as a judge for anime aki (haven't done an IL con in a few years!! ) AND got my youma acceptance email today so I am riding high

We took the paywall down on this one. defector.com/how-the-fuck...

Every time a designer lets me pattern an intentionally androgynous suit I grow more powerful

Just realized that doing a naturally textured prop means I don't have to sand it.... I get to skip the worst step of prop building......

Haven't really said it publicly here, but this is why I'm working on Vivi again! And if all goes well there will also be a little something I'm keeping as a surprise!

"Spooky you're posting so much progress right now are you in crunch" the con is in two months actually and my plan to avoid crunch is to spend like an hour a day working on something for cosplay to be ready in plenty of time

happy birthday miss elise!! 🎂🎉 - 📸: www.instagram.com/brittanylee.... game by @astralshiftpro.com 🪆: candycosplay21 - #LittleGoodyTwoShoes #Cosplay

Keeping a cosplay project secret is reminding me why I don't usually do this. I simply want to share what I'm cooking up!!

Nausicaa!!

These stays were such a fun build, and this shoot ruled, so much incredible skill from everyone involved. Fun fact: that's my great fairy wig with a little bit of restyling lol

Time to start a new (sort of) build thread! Vivi is getting some upgrades over the next few months, including a new head, new feet, new buckle, some hat upgrades, and a staff!

69 Cousins! How nice!

NEW KATAMARI GAME?????

*chanting* ART! ART! ART! ART! ART!!!!!!

Post competition means build book sharing time!! Most commonly asked questions were "what are the beads made of" (aluminum tubing for refrigerators) and "why would you do pin tucks in iridescent organza, what's wrong with you" (a lot, thanks for asking) Cover photo by honeyandheather
