And that's a wrap on designs I wanted to get up before Birmingham MCM. Essek doesn't enjoy the sun, but with a good parasol (gifted by his friend Jester), he can look at it a little easier.

Look I've said it before and I'll say it again

While I totally appreciate and love the tragic lifespan angst of Shadowgast and the fact that Caleb very much deserves to rest and see his parents again..

... I also cannot get over the absolute comedy of having the Shadowgast lifespan angst only for the perpetual repeated fucking with the beacon to lead to all of the Nein getting accidentally consecuted

I wanna sew but I have no sewing stuff…….

☾✶⁺˳✧༚~Essek Cosplay Saga Pt. 1~☾✶⁺˳✧༚

So the Mighty Nein neurosis has finally caught up to me and I’ve caved and decided to start a cosplay. Specifically I want to make a super “blinged-out” Essek look. Think full embroidery, beading, iridescent fabric, jewels; the whole nine yards really.

However to get to the point of blinging an outfit to hell and back- one must have an outfit. So to begin designing an outfit I began to collect and stare at some of my favorite fanart and decided what I wanted (Think the wonderful renderings of ccattnipp, Zmeess, mortuary9)

After doing my research I began sketching out the layers of the outfit,

and then I had to go find what every thing was called so I could find patterns (I unfortunately do not have the name of every sleeve cut memorized yet).

Here's a rough skeleton of what the layers of the cosplay will be.

Unfortunately there’s not many FREE patterns available for printing (I really don’t want to spend $ on non fabric and bling). SO I began drafting, using mostly YouTube and previous experience

These videos were extremely helpful!

I started with sleeves, mostly because I have 0 experience drafting patterns for them, and I decided that now was the best time to fuck around before I go back to work @ my university.

and fuck around I did!

Its not super clean of mathematically perfect, but the bishop sleeve is very forgiving lol.

I have successfully patterned and made a mock up for the underdress bishop sleeves,

I hoping that this is the most complicated sewing portion, since the rest of the outfit doesn’t have to be tight fitting. Possibly the mandarin collar for the topdress, but a collar is less fabric and will be covered by the mantle. ( the mantle WILL be the hardest part since i have never made cosplay armor, and least with the sleeves i've sewn before)

the entire saga of this cosplay will probably take a while based on budget and my work, ideally it will be ready by Oct 2027, since there is a local con I want to wear it to, but it’s not a hard deadline

for shadowgast doodles - bringing home moorbounder kitten(s)

they wanted to surprise each other 🥰 (and yes Essek absolutely loved it) thank you for the promtp! 🧡💜

i hate pattern drafting man

[sleep-deprived-onion]

Listen, I don't have many songs that i assign to characters/blorbos, BUT Essek does have one and it's: Love Comes Quickly by the Pet shop boys (and yes the dance mix i like it better)

[sleep-deprived-onion]

so i'm on my 4th rewatch of the mighty nein animated lol.

1st watch- w/ my friend, post our code geass binge

2nd watch- i did the watch alongs that TBSkyen did, highly recommend those if you enjoy animation + character analysis (he's show only as well so its fun to see his predictions)

3rd watch- made another friend watch it with me because i know of her love of pathetic men and strong hot women

4th watch- current watch rn w/ my parents & sister since we caught up with TLOVM, my mom's favorite so far is Nott if any of you were wondering

who knows, by the time season 2 is out i will have watched it a 5th time

[sleep-deprived-onion]

UPDATE:

finished the 4th rewatch w/ my sister and parents and:

My mom's favorite is still Nott

My sister is having a great time with all the hot strong ladies and pathetic men (bisexuals are very predictable)

My dad is having a fun time playing "voice actor bingo"- he was the most surprised by Tim McGraw

and i am having to physically restrain myself from info dumping every 5 seconds

Oh hey pals, new AO3 scam just hit!

Just like the tumblr scam where they pretend to be "the support team" this is also a scam.

I edited out the link because I GUARANTEE if you go to it you will get your computer hacked and your AO3 or discord account stolen.

I am so mad because I got this 30 seconds after posting a new fic.

DO NOT FALL FOR THESE SCAMS.

No legitimate website support will EVER contact you like this!
