Severely Behind

Sorry for the lack of updates! I tend to neglect my own site in favor of easy updates to my ACP and Facebook accounts D: I’ll try to update my latest costumes which include Princess Bubblegum from Adventure Time, Disney’s Snow White, and Captain America Evening Gown! I have Korra from Legend of Korra still in the works as well as Vanellope von Schweetz from Wreck It Ralph and Akemi Homura from Puella Magi Madoka Magica. As you can see, I’m veering more towards non-Japanese anime these days.

I’ll also be updating Gwendolyn Fairfax since I’ve finally gotten that more or less done to wear at Fanime 2012 with dear Angelic Threads and her Ernest. We won a Judge’s Award for Craftsmanship, which we were very pleased about! Princess Bubblegum was with my awesome friends of AGSMA and Ha-chan of iPlay Cosplay at San Diego Comic Con 2012 in which we won Most Humorous and a Judge’s award there as well! MATHMATICAL! I rounded out 2012 with finally finishing my Disneyland parade sparkle verson of Snow White for Disneyland’s Halloween Party and started 2013 with Captain America evening gown which I affectionately call “Cap Glam”, designed by artist Kelsey Michelle!

Hoping to add some more creations to my site including some historical and maybe even some comic book ensembles? Who knows! ^_^

Welcome!
