🎋A Shizun in the making! 🪷 I’m thrilled to share my current costume progress of Chu Wanning from the danmei novel “ErHa” or “Dumb Husky And His White Cat Shizun” in honor of his birthday!! Yes it is August 9th in China already! I have been planning and collecting materials for months but started sewing just in the last couple of weeks. The lil video shows the various layers coming together, the belt is a stand-in from my Lan Wangji costume, and there is still A LOT left to do. Yes it is ANOTHER all white hanfu 😆 but the overall look will be much more regal and formal than my last one. For Chu Wanning, I’m taking inspiration from the elusive mobile game designs and various official illustrations of the character but then throwing in my own design aesthetics as well. The ErHa novel is not as well/known as the MTXT works (or is it for the faint of heart) but it is the one that has left the deepest impression on me and I knew fairly early on that a Shizun cosplay would be inevitable. The novel had been licensed in English and the first volume will come out later this year so I hope more readers will get to experience the brilliance and core-cutting angst of ErHa. I think only Berserk has ever come close to this pain level for me lol Anyway - Happy Birthday, YuHeng Elder! More updates on my Wanning cosplay sooooon! #cosplayprogress #danmei #danmeicosplay #erha #2ha #dumbhuskyandhiswhitecatshizun #chuwanning #chuwanningcosplay #meatbundoesnteatmeat #二哈和他的白猫师尊 #二哈 https://www.instagram.com/p/ChAz8-rOmgn/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
