Bonfire - Dark Souls
And my next cosplay project is…
This weekend’s cosplay for MCM BIRMINGHAM (Richter Belmont & Gurlukovich Mercenary)
One Last Time As The 4th Survivor
Been a while, here’s a story about cosplaying Hunk
So I’ve cosplayed Hunk 2 times now and next month I’ll do it again but with a new change.
Let me paint you a picture;
Grey Commits To Making a Mistake
In 2021 I finally work up the courage to start cosplaying. After talking to a friend about a side character in Resident Evil, I settled on attempted to cosplay Hunk. Unfortunately I chose a character that had a piece of some really obscure equipment.
Grey Loses Their Mind
I spent a lot of time researching the equipment of Hunk. M88 helmet, Avon FM12 Gas Mask, etc. But there’s always 1 piece that’s evaded me. The Load Bearing Vest (LBV). This ammo carrier has been the bane of this cosplay since the beginning and I spent longer than anyone should looking into it.
The worst part about it is that no one could identify what it actually was. It’s definitely made by Special Operations Equipment (SOE) but what model of vest was it?
What Is This Vest????
General consensus was that it was an SOE Alice Patrol Vest. With my extended research and insanity I came to the conclusion that it fucking wasn’t the Alice Patrol Vest
After some further searching I finally found it. It was an SOE Rallyman vest
Finally, the journey is ovWRONG
I get a substitute in defeat
2023 jumpscare
Fast forward through 2022 and I end up checking out Buyee for some things here and there
Then I spot a piece of rare SOE kit
Oh fuck
The search begins again
2 minutes or searching and I find it. A Rallyman Vest
I deliberate, place a bid and hope. I won
Over 2 weeks later
It arrives, it’s in great condition, it has everything. My Hunk cosplay it’s finally complete
I’m never doing this again
I will be at MCM Comic Con in May this year with a completed Hunk cosplay, now featuring a good MP5 prop
Twink
Yeah
More Gurlukovich Mercenary cosplay pics!
Well.
If twitter goes down, I'll be posting more of my garbage here. Although I do intend to post more in general.
My 3rd cosplay:
Gurlukovich Mercenary - Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty

I forgot to post stuff, here’s a cosplay I’m working on for next week: The Gurlukovich Mercenary
In my typical fashion, I tend to overdo accuracy for what I’m interested in. So I have acquired genuine TTsKO camouflage uniform from Ukraine (as surplus), a paratrooper harness (which I need to dye black) and a tanker helmet with attached PNW-57A Night Vision Goggles from Poland.
Along side all this I have also acquired an AKS-74U as a prop.
I’m never making a cosplay in under a month again. EVER.
Birmingham MCM 2021
Cosplay: Hunk
Cosplay update: it’s done
The state of things
So I realise I’m vague about things in general, like accidentally mysterious in a weird, almost cringeworthy kinda way. I feel like talking, so lets talk.
Life is looking up all of a sudden, I’m doing cosplay now, I’m moving out in February, I’m looking to get a tattoo not long after, I’m going to comic con in November and I’m seeing Royal Blood next April. So yeah, looking pretty good.
It’s pretty weird having a string of consistently good things just start happening all of a sudden, I’m not used to it. This comes off the back to some major life changes since 2019 which have contributed to my overall better mental health.
On that subject of mental health, that’s always been a struggle but I think I have it under control now. I know what causes any drops in mood and I’ve learned how to dampen the effect and, if possible, mitigate it. Still have PTSD though, I’m getting therapy, so that’s fine. Still trying to work out the loneliness issue. 22 and alone is not a good way to spend my time, it makes me feel like shit when I notice it.
So, there’s the post-depression wall of text I threatened a while back. Overall, outlook is pretty good, still got some work to do and I’m generally happier than I was. I gotta keep moving forward as the momentum is picking up.
That’s all for now,

(Still bisexual, very non binary)
Because I have very little other places to put it, I’m putting cosplay updates here because someone may find it interesting:
I’m currently working on HUNK from Resident Evil 2 Remake. In this iteration, he uses the FM12 size 2 gas mask (not to be mistaken for the similar but discontinued S10). Instead of using a cheaper alternative, I’ve gone for SAS issued red outsert lenses.
I’m currently awaiting some additions to the mask such as the VPU and filter
Every so often one of my older posts gets reblogged and gets attention and I’m just?? Why????
Gender? Hardly know them
I'm non-binary.
End of story. Maybe. Let's see where this goes.
