CABOOSE POST! Finally I’m happy enough to post this! Pfff been on and off working on it for quite a-bit …

For comfort reasons I’m going to state that no one besides myself should use this for personal use, as it is straight up me with my cosplay! and it took quite a lot of courage to post this on socials.

The shadow//art at the end was actually drawn on my birthday! Just couldn’t really find a good thing to use it for and I didn’t want to post it by itself.

Does anyone know what the logos on CB are? I have the chessie system and Pennsylvania Railroad, but I can't figure out the other ones.

"10/10 NEVER AGAIN! YOU'RE NO ENGINE!"

AKA: i finally sent some CB cosplay pictures over to my laptop, so tumblr can get some Marley!CB content. (my phone is still refusing to let tumblr post) >> Since taking these try-on photos i've finished adding all the stickers, and his first con will either be Musical con, or MCM london!! (both of which are at the excel centre in, you guessed it, London.) Just gotta make + add the chimneys, and find a way to paint my safety gear that i can easily remove since i do use it to skate and peely paint is NOT fun.

Cinderella Boy Cosplay Ideas

And here I am, with no free spending money, putting together Chase and Buddy cosplays for my husband and I. I am not in the habit of sewing my own clothes anymore (donated my dress form and sewing machine years ago) so here's the kind of look I'm going with...hoping most of it can be thrifted, or otherwise picked up inexpensively online...if I even go through with it...

Anyway if you wanna help me be a nerd and cosplay, did you know you can buy my books on Ko-Fi and it has a pay-what-you-want feature? Just saying...

Chase: Fairly easy, just a plain white shirt and pale blue jeans combined with the most 80s/90s core jacket matching his color scheme I could find:

And of course, the matching Chuck Taylor All-Stars:

And wig! It's not cosplay without a wig! (I mean it totally can be if you can't or don't want to wear a wig, but for me? gotta wig it up)

Overall looking at about... $150? Not the most I've spent on a cosplay for sure.

Fortunately my husband already has boots and slim-fit black pants so it really just comes down to the top...

Now, for Buddy, he's frequently called "mall goth" by Chase, so I want to go for a look that could come straight out of classic Hot Topic...which means, I looked mostly at brands that Hot Topic USED TO carry for inspo. Because they don't really carry a lot of goth clothes for guys anymore. ugh.

So anyway looking for a top that fit Buddy's "standard" outfit? or even his general design sense, that would make sense for my husband to wear?? Absolute hell. Fuck this design but also damn it's a good design.

Best I can fucking do is a shirt/vest combo:

And wig:

If anyone has anything better for Buddy's "standard" outfit (as we see him when first introduced) then by all means please drop recs in the reblogs/comments but. This is what we got. ~$100 for Buddy, I think?

Again not the most expensive cosplays ever but while we still have other ones we can wear...these will be on the back burner. (much as I'd like to make videos with them...)

Last treat for CB-day, my unfinished Kapa Kitchen inspired CB cosplay. Will it ever get finished? Who knows

I can thoroughly say I’ve never been happier with the turnout of a costume!
