I’m working on a raven skull neckpiece for the front of my Vax’ildan cosplay and these are some of the progress photos! This is my first time working with foam clay, so this has been a learning experience!

Here’s a “life-hack” for you. Apparently concentrated Kool-Aid can be used as a pretty effective leather dye. I was making a drink while cutting the snaps off some new straps for my pauldrons and I got curious, so I tried it, thinking, “ok even if this works, it will just wash out.” Nope. It took the “dye” (undiluted) in about 3 seconds. After drying for about an hour and a half, it would not wash off in the hottest tap-water. It would not wash out after soaking for 30 minutes. It did not wash out until I BOILED it, and even then, only by a tiny bit and it gave it a weathered look that was kind of cool. Add some waterproofing and I’d wager it would survive even that. That rich red is only one application too. Plus it smells great, lol. So there you go, cheap, fruity smelling leather dye in all the colors Kool-Aid has to offer.

WELL THEN!

this may be important to some of my followers *and certainly not just getting reblogged because of my costuming and my boyfriends desire for leather armor*

When I was in middle school we used to use it to dye our hair. Potent stuff.

If you’re dying anything with kool-aid it’s best to use SUGAR-FREE ones otherwise the thing you’re dying might get all sticky

the flavor only packets where you are supposed add sugar are the best. they will dye any natural fiber: leather, wool, cotton, hair, flax, jute, silk and so forth. heat the dye water so it is more potent. let dry then rinse excess out in cold water. there’s a whole system to this.

On my way to DCA for tonight’s Oogie Boogie Bash! Any other Critters gonna be there with me? This will be the last time I’ll be wearing this coat.

Adventures in Wig Styling! In the last year, since debuting my Mollymauk Tealeaf cosplay, I’ve always used a brown moppy wig and called it good. I finally decided to go to my local Spirit Halloween store and got a can of purple hair spray, then proceeded to use the entire thing to add a layer of purple to the color of the wig! Oh my sweet Moonweaver, it helped!

I’ll probably go back to the store and buy a couple more cans of the spray so that I can do upkeep in case it fades later on. I also used a comb that was wet with regular hair spray to take down a bunch of the fly-aways in the wig. My grandmother taught me that trick on my real hair when I was a kid, and it’s something that stuck with me.

A reminder that the clothing of the Middle Ages was less brown (and the people were more brown) than often depicted.

This is an important thing to remember when designing clothing and making cosplay that’s meant to depict and reflect Medieval and Renaissance time periods. Something to be aware of, though, is that some of the colors back then were very hard to come by and were thus much more expensive. Meaning that it was often the higher-class people who were getting things made in those colors.

This has been my day at San Diego Comic-Con 2019! There will be more photos, but this was what I git via my phone.
