MEDIA KIT

Hello Again! I'm so delighted that @WAWAKSewing sent me some more sewing and crafting tools. Some of these are new to me, some are things I needed, and some will help make crafting just that much easier! Thank you again Wawak for your kindness and generosity. I'll have smaller videos to come showing how I put these to use, especially the cutting mat. I still cannot get over it. #sewing #wawak #wawaksewingsupply #embroidery #unboxing

Welcome back to the final walkthrough video of how I created my Ryme Cosplay from Pokemon Scarlet and Violet. This video looks at how I made all of the accessories: her earrings, her necklace, customizing her hat and her microphone. The components of the accessories I worked on over the course of a month, amidst the other portions of her cosplay. Earrings: Worbla Resin Custom Molds (tip taken from @luduscosplay7067) Jewelry: EVA foam Jewelry hooks Jewelry chain Hat from Amazon, backstrap custom painted Microphone: the handheld microphone was a happy accident. I wasn't familiar with how microphones functioned since I never used them for a personal project. The original microphone that I bought was misrepresented in the description on amazon -- every wireless microphone has to have some sort of transmitter to receive the audio, and that microphone was $10.00 and sold without it. However the wireless microphone that connected to my phone worked perfectly. That trick of having microphone sound coming from a different speaker I learned from @PlexiCosplay when they were showing how to do their Alaster microphone from Hazbin Hotel. With the Pokeball Bluetooth speaker it executed super well. The microphone cover and details were made from EVA foam or foam clay, and the painting methods were the same as when I was making Ryme's shoes. Thank you so much for watching. If you've made it this far, there will be one more bonus video featuring the re-make of Ryme's jacket because I needed to test a brand new sewing machine. Stay tuned for that.

Welcome back!! Thanks for watching. Today I'll show you how I handled all of the satin sewing for my Sailor Jupiter cosplay. I think estimated time invested on this is probably short of 15-20 hours over the course of a month. Once again, big thanks to @MomoKurumi /@MomoKarinyo for hermagical girl patterns -- I use them for every Sailor Scout that I create. For this portion of the cosplay, I used her glove roll pattern from her accessories package, as well as her skirt pattern and followed her tutorial for how to make the choker. For the collar, I have @cosmiccoterie9698 's pattern saved, with the quilter's tape and ribbon tip borrowed from my Sailor Moon cosplay group, https://www.instagram.com/kcsenshi/ whom I love dearly. Satin fabric is from @fabricwholesaledirect1414 More videos coming soon for how I constructed the rest of the cosplay, including all of the spandex, the boots and her accessories! #sailorjupiter #cosplay

Hey there! thank you for watching. This is a 33 minute video that shows how I created the bomber for my Ryme cosplay over the course of two months, from the tail end of March to Memorial Day weekend. I worked on this as well as other components of her costume, and a secondary costume all at once. Total working hours was approximately 30. Components: Matte Satin (Fabric Wholesale Direct) Metallic Foil Lame' (Joann) Craft Foam (Walmart or Joann) 24 inch zipper (Wawak.com) I neglected to specify a few measurements in the video audio. The sleeve cuffs were folded in half, metallic fabric, cut at about six inches long (or the same measurement as that end of the sleeve pattern) and 3.5 inches wide. This way when folded over it would house a one inch piece of fabric freely. For the jacket hem, though the fabric was six inches wide and fifty four inches long, the foam was only 2.25 - 2.5 inches wide, so that the fabric could be wrapped around it securely and have room for movement. When adding the seams for the ridges, this decreases the amount of space and fabric, so don't be afraid to measure more fabric than you might actually need. At the tail end of the video, I did mention that I wound up re-making this jacket entirely, as I desperately needed pockets lol, I needed to test a new sewing machine, (stay tuned!) and also had an opportunity to give Ryme a proper photoshoot with a black cosplay photographer here in Kansas City. Thank you to http://www.instagram.com/micah_thompson_photography for capturing the amazing pictures just in time for my birthday, and for the fun little video at the end (we were jamming to Missy Elliott during the shoot lol. and again, thank you to @CaseyReneeCosplay for her collar video https://youtu.be/BaJeWUjjne0?si=eazheVHDiFlU0_WG We are almost done with the videos for Ryme! Next up will be looking at how I made her fantastic accessories.

Welcome back!! Thanks for watching. Today I'll show you how I created the two bows for my Sailor Jupiter cosplay. Bows are pretty simple for me since I've made them before, but it was fun to go through it again. Big thanks to @MomoKurumi @MomoKarinyo for her magical girl patterns -- I use them for every Sailor Scout that I create and specifically use the front bow pattern as well as her layering methods for batting and foam. I also specifically use @SparklePipsi 's butt bow pattern for the larger bow, printed at 130% to scale. More videos coming soon for how I constructed the rest of the cosplay, including the satin, all of the spandex, the boots and her accessories!

Hey there! Welcome back! Today I'll be showing you how I made the shoes, or shoe covers, for my Ryme cosplay. This consisted of foam and elastic with a few different types of adhesives. I've never made shoe covers entirely out of foam before. They came out great, even if they were a little wonky along the way. Follow along to see how I did this, and please subscribe to see the other videos for this cosplay series. By the way, if you're fond of the funky looking bonnets that I'm wearing, I do sell them on my Etsy! https://createdbythegreat.etsy.com
