Final Halloween post from 2025: costume day at the gym, where I wore my new sloth onesie and REALLY sweated it out for three classes. Also included: proof I kept the kigu on.

More Halloween costumes! I brought Leela back out for my Halloween silks session 🚀
Picking something which is safe for silks, especially at the beginner level, sure is a challenge.

Fun fact: you can see my wig getting worse with each wear!

Keeping things rolling with a costume that didn't make the cut for Costober this year - "Butterfly Fae" original design using items from Great Pretenders.
...and also the newest gallery page on my site!

31. Spooky cosplay goes to my Bioshock Splicer, based on "Baby Jane" concept art. Two photos today; one for the atmosphere and the other for my FX makeup (which I only did for that one Snailoween). Photos from @elementalsight.bsky.social and @kameraninja.bsky.social 2012

30. Work-in-Progress for Izutsumi. Was supposed to be done in May. I have ears, tail, and fabric.
...maybe next May.

29. Dream photoshoot: I may be intentionally misinterpreting this one, but I'm picking an existing shoot. Cersei at University of Toronto, shot by @kameraninja.bsky.social in 2016. Aside from my costume being slightly incomplete, I think it's close to perfection.
#costober

27. Cosplans: 3 of these were part of my plans at the start of the year. I seem to have a constantly decreasing amount of time to make costumes, so I don't know if I'll make any progress before the end of the year, but it sure would be nice if I did.

26. Cosplaying a non-human character: I don't think it gets more non-human than Katamari Cousins. This is Mag, first appearing in Beautiful Katamari; photos by @elementalsight.bsky.social 2012

I love Midna, super loved getting to do this as a silly group of friends, and it was just SO FUN to hand out mail to other LoZ cosplayers in these costumes.

25. My favourite character to cosplay: this might be a weird one, but I'm going with "Postal Warrior" Twili Midna. Photos: @kameraninja.bsky.social and @veryfrankpics.bsky.social , both 2015. Also featuring @kurumasha.bsky.social @tedevium.bsky.social @hikarimoro.bsky.social

I'm crouched at the side of a water feature full of waterlilies, next to a paper parasol. I'm wearing a chiffon dress in pale pink with bright pink and dark purple accents. I have wings shaped and painted like lily petals matching the colour of my dress, and a lily painted on my face

A woman in a peacock-themed long dress and mask is handed a stem of lilies by myself in a pink dress matching the colour of the lilies. I have accessorized with wings which resemble lily petals and pointe shoes

24. Cosplaying an OC. This is another oooold one, a fairy I made based on "Pink Pagoda" lilies. Shot with Maple on her visit to Toronto, 2007

23. Cosplay from a game - more Rosalina? More Rosalina. And also the only purchased cosplay I'm going to post all month (though I am responsible for the racket, shoes, wig, and crown Lol)

20. Cosplay from a TV show: hey, it's my specialty: almost unknown side-character! I genuinely had fun recreating that skirt, and also a while dang cross-stitch which I never even got photographed. Mom/Grace from The Umbrella Academy, 2023

19. Cosplay from an Anime: Android 18 isn't *super* accurate, but for a stash/thrift cosplay it gets the point across. Also recently worn at a local meet-up!

18. Black cosplay: with the power of lazy cosplay and big groups, Team Rocket from Yeti 2024! Also featuring @asleepymeow.bsky.social @popfrocks.bsky.social @battlefrocks.bsky.social @modernwizard.bsky.social Leslie, Mage, and WCES
