After a bit of a dry spell where I dealt with a lot of real life nonsense, I found myself back in the studio this weekend. I’ve begun my next cosplay project - Marisha Ray’s Laudna on Critical Role got a new look, so I must make it!

While I wait for a few more things to arrive before I begin work the dress, I started in on the wooden house backpack… and it is already complete! It took 24 hours start-to-finish and it weighs less than 4 oz.
I need more projects like this in my future, I really enjoy this kind of model making/fabrication.
It’s mostly cardboard (Amazon boxes) under EVA foam, but it will be able to hold things as a backpack! I love heat carving EVA foam, it’s almost therapeutic. Smells horrible though - always wear a respirator!
