Tereshkova Costuming

I play a lot of dress-up.

I think I did pretty dang good.

I hate using Imgur for an image host even more than using Tumblr. Pay no attention.

Updating Rebel Legion photos, don’t mind me.

I do love a good character moment in my action shots, although I’ll probably go with the hanging parry.

Sneak peeks of my Master Indara costume for DragonCon. It won’t be done but it will be a solid V1.0.

You ever get an idea that just won't leave you alone? Last winter the Top Gun brain rot hit hard and then spawned "formalwear inspired by Iceman's helmet". Luckily I have friends willing to enable me. The gown was off the rack though I designed and constructed the shoulder accents myself. I learned how to trace and manipulate photos in Procreate! A friend traced the screen-used helmet insignia and vectorized it, while another friend designed and made it into a necklace. The F-14 earrings were also his idea. (@optimysticals you're the best.) The cuff bracelet with the callsign I made myself (the inside secretly has "bullshit, you can be mine" in Maverick's handwriting font).

The glasses are not actually screen-accurate because I liked these Randolph aviator sunglasses much better than Ice's American Opticals or Mav's Ray-Bans.

The Top Gun logo on the clutch was done on my Cricut, because I only use it for ridiculous stuff like this. Some of it is silver glitter cardstock and the rest is red or blue vinyl.

Seafair / Airshow weekend means it’s time to post Starfighter pilot photos. This is Flask, my Resistance X-wing pilot. She’s CO of Alpha Squadron, and this was taken during a shore leave on Batuu. There was a bit of a run-in with the First Order, but it was time for the Rise of the Resistance and we got away clean. We also connected with secret agent Vi Moradi.

Made a cosplay accessory! ICEMAN bracelet cuff with the color and font from his helmet. Worbla, craft foam, paint, and vinyl. Bonus interior detail using @k9effect ‘s Maverick Handwriting font. Nobody will see it except me, and y’all.

Next up: patterning the blue lightning bolts out of sequined fabric.
