Also happy international talk like a pirate day for yesterday

Life is cruel, why should the afterlife be any different.

Hopefully some decent photos coming soon. Some small adjustments to the costume to be done but will certainly be ready for Armageddon next month. #nzcosplay #cosplay #piratesofthecarribean #davyjones

Managed to make it to the beach and do a photo shoot with my Davy Jones cosplay. Only narrowly avoided the incoming storm. Looking forward to the photos. #cosplay #nzcosplay #davyjones #piratesofthecarribean #beach

Been out for the last week with sickness so didn't get to take my latest cosplay to the beach. In the meantime enjoy my Thrall cosplay. Hopefully will have better luck this weekend #cosplay #projectebonblade #nzcosplay

All ready for Con. Cosplay is at a point where it is good enough, accommodations all purchased. Hoping to head to the beach in an upcoming weekend and getting some decent photos. #cosplay #nzcosplay #nzcosplayer #piratesofthecarribean

Do you fear death? #cosplay

Davy Jones hand. Probably a part of the costume that won't really get seen too much but hoping it will at least make a small impact on the completed costume. #cosplay #cosplaywip #piratesofthecarribean

Making a thing - Davy Jones glove wip #cosplay #nzcosplay #piratesofthecarribean #cosplaywip

Basically done on Davy cosplay. Still working on his glove which I'm not 100% happy with. #cosplay #nzcosplay #piratesofthecarribean

More work on Davy this weekend. More additions to the coat, recolour of mask, assembly sword, new rock boot and sea weed. Probably another test wear tomorrow. #cosplay #cosplaywip

Cosplay test runs #cosplay

Davy Jones cosplay wip - Still a few months until con , little bits to touch up here and there, currently working on his sword. Will look at makeup closer to the event. Also to organise a photoshoot at a beach. #cosplay #nzcosplay #piratesofthecarribean #cosplaywip

I have used quite a few different materials for my Davy Jones cosplay including, foam, 3d prints, lycra, terrain grass, real and fake shells, tin foil, and paper-mache #cosplay #cosplaywip

Really happy with how the coat is looking, even if it is more colourful than I intended #cosplay #nzcosplayer #nzcosplay #cosplaywip #piratesofthecarribean #davyjones

Turning my coat into a seafood basket #cosplay #cosplaywip

Getting work done #cosplay #cosplaywip

The slow progress begins of decorating Davys coat #cosplay #cosplaywip #piratesofthecarribean #nzcosplayer #nzcosplay

Some more progress on Davy cosplay. More details added to tentacles, adding gloss to shirt, and making a belt. #cosplay #cosplaywip #piratesofthecarribean #nzcosplay #nzcosplayer
