District 8 Costume and Craftworks

WIZARDUS INTERRUPTUS, or Gale walked away with my damn dinner. It’s supposed to be the other way around, dammit.

(Halloween but make it all your problem.)

Cause my last hat was borrowed, I now have my own true Y’allstarion hat. Fitting considering I was in a highly Gold Rush area today…

Howdy, darlin’!

But this is where we started...

"Wait...is that.....no, that can't be Karlach in a bunny suit....."

Preview of unexpected #YAllstarion.

If I can confirm that the weird nausea that started last night is done, I can try to put myself back in Astarion for fun tonight. Maybe take some nice photos for a change.

Or recreate my Badge502 impersonation.

If you see this, quote with a robot that isn’t from “Star Wars,” “Star Trek,” “Doctor Who,” or “Transformers".

Oh fine, I made a things. Whee.

And we have reached the time of the year where I leave the house in darkness. At least I go home in light to some degree.

Oh dear! Is it a place where your outfit could get messy? Then I get that entirely, especially if it’s something not washable.

(I had a near incident with ketchup and my linen shirt at LA Con. 🤣)

And don’t get me going on work Halloween. I wore Astarion to the office, and while I definitely found the DmD/BG3 fans, there are now Expectations going forward.

Here comes the cat onesie… 🤣

At least people are not looking to commission me!!!

Me at conventions: ALL THE COSPLAY.

Me at Halloween: Cat Onesie. Bathrobe. Eh.

It’s the tradition of many!

Oof! Good that you got it figured out. Also, never apologize for taking care of those dear to you. ❤️

I may try to draft out Rhapsody this weekend on the 3D printer. I want to look at the parts and see if I can figure out making the handle clear due to a little rumor someone set me on about Rhapsody’s identity….

My 3D printer isn’t top of the line but I do like playing with it. Yay more stabbies!

By the way, if I feel damn motivated, this will be a thing I wrangle mostly from the closet. Because short deadlines are short.

Twas the Monday before Halloween and all through the manor…

Nothing. We are freaking CLEANING up in here. For now. And then there may be some Dickens Fair plans and maybe a damn corset.

Pardon the loss of curl on my hair (long story), but I give myself credit for being able to whip out a lightweight Ascended #Astarion out of my wardrobe and get a fun photo with Maggie Robertson all at once. Love making stuff but when the closet provides…use it!

BTW: I forgot to mention it but if you are curious, the print file is from The Dangerous Ladies. :) While I am talented, I am not yet 3D design talented. :)

Also, I need to learn to spell check 🤣

A laugh: the smaller dagger is currently broken due to Oops.

My daggers for Astarion. I 3D orinter two sizes, and my best half painted and finished them. I threw together a last minute belt setup so I could take the larger one to faire and have it peace bonded. Never mind that because it’s live steel it wasn’t necessary. 🤣

Part 4: Some final Results. Me over here not doing photoshoots…including the first time I wore it and flipped the hair the wrong way (then again, I stand by the fact that this is Early Access so he has bugs that the devs need to fix.

A mini-introduction archive of progress photos from Astarion’s build process. Probably the most trim I have ever applied to anything.

Oh. Hi there. :)

Some folks have seen this already but let’s start this account right with a little bit of Early Access Astarion being hit with a bounty on his head.

Wellp, here it is. A cosplay account on this part of the world. Yes, it's me, the one also in the Instas. Welcome to my little BluHovel, in which I don't know what the heck I'm doing next, but I'm working on carefully curated and scheduled plans because I'm too ancient.

Proper intro soonish.
