Left hand jewelry and chest brooch for Y'shtola is complete! 💍✌ I couldn't find any tutorials online so I made my own pattern out of poster board and then used craft foam for the details. I sealed it with Frog Juice, spray painted it, and then weathered with black acrylic paint. The brooch and pinky ring were made from resin cast gems and apoxie sculpt. They were painted weathered using the same technique.

The rest of my gems have been cast now too, and the gems for the staff are almost done as well!

My wig came in too and I'm pretty happy with the ears so far, but I want to finish styling my wig first before sewing them on.

Howling Moons from Sayonara Wild Hearts 🐺💜 This was essentially a closet cosplay that has never made it to a con, but it would be great for a comfy day! Made the wolf mask and painted the iridescent heart. Simple, but fun. Finished this one back in 2019!

N E W P R O J E C T ! 🔮🌟

Y'shtola from FFXIV (Shadowbringers outfit) + Nightseeker staff!

Over the last couple weeks I've been digging into this cosplay. I've made some progress and wanted to share it here! I'm updating more regularly on IG and TW (linked below), but I wanted to share one post with the progress pics so far.

The top part is finished now! (Minus the chest brooch). The outer dress part and fur will clean up the edges, but the base was critical first.

Nightseeker is coming along too! I printed a full scale mockup according to my height and it's going to be 6ft tall! I'm using Apoxie Sculpt to model over a 3/4" wooden dowel.

Also casting gems for accessories, and drafted up over the knee boot covers! These have both been new avenues for me, but so far it's going well!

Other notes: My wig will be here this week so I'm excited to get rolling on that, and the neck and face tattoos are designed and ready to be made into temporary tattoos. I'll probably print them and do a full makeup test once I get the wig finished.

Mae Borowski from Night in the Woods 🐱🔪 Reused my Lapis wig and the weft from Bloody Mary for this quick and fun cosplay back in 2018. My friend joined in as Gregg too! I made our signs and we had a great time at AWA. Still one of my favorite shirts from Finji!

Mimikyu Squad 👻⚡ We made these in 2019. They were fun ponchos to make together! Heather made the patterns and sewed it all together. I cut and transferred the faces and made our "tails". This is a perfect cold weather cosplay. It even doubled as my Halloween costume last year!

Long time no post! I'm reviving our cosplay after a long while of life changes. I've been doing a few small projects, but this was the last one started before our big hiatus.

Q cosplay from Zero Time Dilemma (Zero Escape series) is finally finished! Really happy with how this one came out in the end and proud to have tackled the challenge that was that head.

I also started an Instagram and Twitter page for us and I'll likely be more active there from now on. You can follow us at @hsquaredcosplay on either platform!

More progress on Q from Zero Time Dilemma! Shirt and overalls are finished and the head has been formed out of EVA using Evil Ted’s Foam Dome tutorial. Lots of filling and sanding to come, but the initial holes are cut! See our last WIP for this project.
