hello there i am a very tiny teensy tiny flying bug. i have been madly in love with you ever since i first saw you walking around in my forest. my natural lifespan is very short — i long to spend it flying directly into your eye, so that you might shed but one tear for my heartsickness

I've been having some fun with kigus lately! Here are a few of the ones I've finished in the last few months. The blue lion and Reptar were both commissions, and Venom was for me lol

A quick tutorial on making cheap collapsible props: build them on PVC pipes with screw-apart connectors.

Acquire PVC piping (approx. $3-7 depending on size), PVC cement (approx. $5) and appropriate connectors (approx. $2-3 each). There is a male and female side. These ones attach externally but sometimes you can find ones that attach internally on a shank.

Lay out pipes on workbench, elevated so you have better access to them.

Screw connectors together. I like to glue connectors on while they are screwed together because it helps me control the rotation. If you have nothing on the pipe it may not matter, but if for example, you have a blade at each end of the pipe, and you glue the connectors on separately, then you may end up with a blade on one end rotated differently from the blade at the other end. 

Score up surface of PVC pipe (and inside connectors) with a craft knife or rough sandpaper. This creates scratches that the glue can bite into.

Time for PVC cement. This stuff is noxious so please wear a respirator. If you don’t have one, get one. (If you can’t or won’t, work outside with good ventilation. for the love of god.) Apply PVC cement around the circumference of the pipe and to the inside of the connector. Squish together.

Let glue set.

Repeat on other side.

Wait until fully cured, and then disassemble/assemble to your heart’s content.

I used these for a commissioned kit for a Yoko Ritona rifle so that it could collapse for travel/storage:

I have a raging hard on for medieval/armor inspired fashion

[jackiegooutside-blog-deactivate]

@systlin this just seems like something relative to your interests?

[systlin]

I found the first prop I ever made while sorting through some stuff and had to take a moment here to appreciate my own growth... These props were made about 5 years apart. The left one was for Masquerade Loki back at Nebraskon 2012, which was the first real cosplay I ever did. The one on the right was for Cronan Darkroot from Secrets of Elvendale, made for Nebraskon 2017. I even think they used the same paint!

Hey look who's ready to see The Maze Runner tonight!

[scarylullabies]

look i know this is a bit niche, but I would die for the human who wrote this pattern description. maybe you won’t feel the same if you haven’t spent hours and hours reading knitting pattern blurbs by the designer or the designers hype person.

[feministfangirl]

listen, this niche is made for me and i am buying this pattern sometime this winter to make myself one!!! thanks for sharing, i am in love

[scarylullabies]

the pattern is called the rangers cowl by Michael Vloedman, the image is a link, but i guess that doesn’t carry through on reblogs?? here’s the url - ravelry.com/patterns/library/ranger-cowl

So sorry abt that folks, i really didn’t think anyone would notice this post at all.

[annathecrow-that-was]

@ardatli @alicesaurusfragilis maybe it’s just me, but I’d say this in deep red would make an A+ casual cosplay of Billy Kaplan…

[ardatli]

….yes, yes it would. Brb, going to Michael’s.
