Doing a little last minute painting on Nuala's book before putting it away! Istg this was the one thing the body paint on my hands would transfer to, so I've had to repaint it after each time I wore her this year. This time, though, I'm going to actually seal the paint so it can just be wiped off later! Now I just have to outline the lettering and flowers. . . #cosplay #princessnuala #nuala #princessnualacosplay #hellboy #hellboy2 #hellboy2cosplay #hellboy2thegoldenarmy #guillermodeltoro (at San Diego, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnUQK_ngEkG/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=nzvdy7p9oqj4

Happy #fanartfriday 💕 Got to finish up this little #pencildrawing of #hellboy 2's #starcrossed #lovers . My Wife and I rewatched it recently and I still very much wish they'd had a happy ending (to the point that I have a headcanon now of the forest returning Nuala to life upon the condition that she work to prevent her brother's return. Perhaps someday I'll get to write it). #fanart #love #abesapien #merman #princessnuala #elf #elven #nuala #fae #faerie #romance #tragic #traditionalart #fantasyart

*screaming* The masquerade was long and crazy and everyone was amazing, AND I DID NOT EXPECT TO WIN BEST IN CLASS FOR TWO THINGS. Workmanship was less surprising since this was the outfit that they recognized at WonderCon, but I'm still astounded at the presentation award! #cosplay #costumecon #princessnuala #princessnualacosplay #wat #masquerade #conmasquerade #costumecon36 (at DoubleTree by Hilton San Diego - Mission Valley)

I just realized I've never done an actual #sidebyside for my costume and the original! #cosplay #princessnuala #princessnualacosplay #myface #hellboycosplay #hellboy2thegoldenarmy #hellboy2cosplay #thegoldenarmy #sewing #dyedsilk #ombresilk #ombre (at San Diego, California)

Despite feeling super unprepared and arriving super late, #LBCE was still a ton of fun. I went there to wear #Nuala and see people, and both were accomplished! The dress mostly stayed put, and I finally got the hang of the makeup. Next up, more work on the belt and actually making her book! (The real one will be much prettier than The Memoirs of Field Marshal Montgomery) #cosplay #longbeachcomicexpo #princessnuala #princessnualacosplay #hellboy2thegoldenarmy #hellboy2 #hellboycosplay #sewing #ombre (at Long Beach Comic Expo)

One "quick" hour and a half makeup test later, and I think I remember how to do this! At this point I'm fairly good at gluing my eyebrows down, so they're finally barely visible under the greasepaint. And no contacts this time since I lost the battle with them, but fingers crossed I get them in tomorrow, and that the gel line goes on right the first time! #cosplay #cosprep #princessnuala #princessnualacosplay #makeup #moviemakeup #hellboycosplay #hellboycosplay #hellboy2thegoldenarmy #clanbethmoora (at San Diego, California)

Three sets of hooks and eyes, a snap, and cuff trim later, and Nuala's finally actually done! She was completed in a rush for WonderCon last year, so I never actually got the closures right, and the collar and cuff trim arrived too late for the con, so I had to finish hand sewing a ton of bits last night. The belt still needs some perfecting, but that can wait. After a quick ironing, she'll be ready to go for #LBCE tomorrow! #cosplay #cosprep #longbeachcomicexpo #princessnuala #nuala #princessnualacosplay #hellboy2 #hellboy2thegoldenarmy #hellboycosplay #bethmoora #sewing #ombresilk (at San Diego, California)
