April Polaroids — Last Chance!

It's not too late to upgrade to the $20 tier if you want an Officer Jenny print & polaroid this month!

We were only trying to drown her...

Took a few quick snaps of this Neverland mermaid look on my DSLR after shooting February's polaroids because I hiiiiighly doubt I'll ever put this on again, haha!

February mailed rewards going out tomorrow!

Finally put this "super quick!! very easy!!" Neverland mermaid concept together for February's polaroids... remind me to never refer to any costume as "quick" or "easy"!! IT'S A LIE!

February Tutorial: Creating Photoshop Actions!

Okay, I didn't poll you guys for this one because my top priority right now is just getting backlogged rewards done, so I hope you guys are interested in this topic!! It's something I just learned how to do myself, and it's saved me a ton of time.

If you want to download the Nevertasia action I create in this video, you can find it here<...

Save the Date: April Livestream!

Mark it on your calendar — we're livestreaming next Sunday at 10am Mountain Time! I'm working on designing some t-shirts with my cosplays, so I think for this one I'll do some screencasting and we'll play with some design options while I fill you in on what's going on, and what my upcoming plans are!

Hey, it's me, being overwhelmed again!!

Irrelevant photo — a new edit from a verrrry old shoot! This is for an upcoming magazine publication. I really need to reshoot this costume!

I'm sure you guys are tired of hearing about me signing up for more than I can handle, haha. But I feel like I have a few slightly relevant updates to the whole "consistently biting off more than I can chew" problem, so I want to share them and a...

El Paso Comic Con is a wrap!

I had a whirlwind weekend at El Paso Comic Con!! It was my best convention appearance yet, I think, and I am bursting with ideas now that I can't wait to implement!

On Friday I wore Lavellan!

Saturday I t...

April Livestream Poll!

Please mark all dates/times that work for you for the April livestream! I've sectioned them into "morning" and "afternoon" options because all the times were starting to look really confusing! I'm on Mountain Time, so keep that in mind.

January Timelapse: Fade Rift Edit!

For January's timelapse, I wanted to show you guys how I created a fade rift for this dramatic photo!

Check it out on YouTube.

January Wallpapers: Inquisitor Lavellan!

Mobile and desktop Lavellan wallpapers are available here! (This one is now my background on both my phone and my desktop computer..... don't judge me!!)

Album Cover!!

I realized that I'm still not 100% happy with the final tracks for my Dragon Age: Inquisition covers, so I arranged to meet up with Blake in about two weeks to record some corrections and just make sure I'm proud of every track. It stinks to delay the album release (again...) but I want to make sure I don't release anything that isn't my best work.

Anyway, here's the album cover!

Early Access: Lavellan Photos!!

AHHH! I'm so excited! I started editing these last night right after I got home, but it took me a while to find the visual that I wanted for this set. I think I'm finally happy!

Despite having the PERFECT locat...

FINALLY... Inquisitor Lavellan Shoot is Wrapped!

Want to hear a funny story? Once there was a cosplayer who thought that she would get her Inquisitor cosplay shot and her new album released in January!! Hilarious, right?! It's a comedic story! Because!! It's April! BUT I FINALLY SHOT!

I've had this costume done for a solid month and just couldn't get the shoot scheduled, but today I finally did it! My wonderful mom he...

Officer Jenny — Early Access!

Just wanted to show you guys more of the photos from this shoot that I haven't released yet! (Plus bonus Morgan Danielle as Nurse Joy!)

Behind the Scenes on the April Fool's Prank!

Oh my god, you guys have no idea how hard it was for me to keep quiet about this!! I love sharing work-in-progress photos and behind the scenes content with Patrons, and giving you early access to photos, and it KILLED ME to not be able to do that without ruining the prank. But now the curtain is lifted!! I hope you guys enjoyed it!

The Plan

Usually these April Fool's group pranks are in...

BALLS, we never did a March livestream?!

good lord, I'm all over the place right now. WHAT SHOULD WE DO, PLS VOTE

January Tutorial: How to Sew Piped Seams!

As per your vote, January's tutorial is on how to sew piped seams! It's a super easy way to spice up some seams and create some interest on a garment. Watch it here! 

Stark Sisters in the Snow!

We had surprise snow on Sunday night, so we managed to squeeze in a quick (I mean really quick — 30 minutes, before Mandi had to go to work!) photoshoot the next morning!

Stark Sisters — Shoot with Anne!

On Sunday, we drove into the mountains to shoot with Anne Barhyte! It was me, Caitlin as Sansa, AlyCat Cosplay as Cersei, 2018-03-20 18:21:00 +0000 UTC View Post

#StarkSisters is Underway!

Oof, I should've updated you guys days ago, but we've been going nonstop! If you recall, my friend Caitlin (whom I've known for years online, but had never met in person before) was coming to Denver to shoot some Game of Thrones stuff with me! She's the perfect Sansa, so of co...

Spontaneous Potter Girls Shoot!

A week or so ago, Morgan let me know that Aletheia Cosplay, a Texan cosplayer she knows, was going to be in Colorado visiting! Aletheia does a flawless Luna, so we pulled together a quick Potter girls shoot at the last minute.

January mp3 — The Dawn Will Come

I was originally planning on giving you guys one of the Tavern Songs for January's mp3 download, but they're not going to be ready until the end of this month, so I thought I'd give you guys "The Dawn Will Come," a Dragon Age cover I did years ago! Some of you may already have it, but for those who don't, 2018-03-10 00:47:29 +0000 UTC View Post

I moved! (Again!)

It seems like yesterday that I was updating you guys that I'd moved back to Colorado, but it was actually ten months ago! Well, I'm happy to announce that after staying in our (very generous) friend's spare room for nearly a year, we finally found our own place, and we moved into it this weekend. It's in Denver proper, which is very exciting (we can walk to cool breweries and restaurants, and even...

Some Quick Updates!

I feel like I've been kind of all-over-the-place lately, so I wanted to touch base real quick and give you guys some updates!

Inquisitor Lavellan

I know this one's been dragging on (trust me, I didn't want that to happen either...) but I'm so, so close to being done with this costume!! Once I knock out the photoshoot, I can finalize the vast majority of the remaining Janua...

Inquisitor Update!

I’m ALMOST done with my Inquisitor, which will enable me to fulfill a lot of the January rewards! My custom buttons have arrived and I’m partially done customizing the pants with straps and embroidery.

I’ve also decided which music video to start with for the Tavern Songs: Samson’s Tale! I have a cool idea for a very atmospheric video that I think you guys will really like.

February Timelapse: Nevertasia Edit!

For February's photo editing timelapse, see how I edited one of the Nevertasia images! Click here to watch. 

February Livestream — Take Two!

LET'S TRY THAT AGAIN! Today we'll be doing some more Inquisitor makeup while I update you guys on what I've been doing, and what's coming up in the near future! Today's we're going to talk Dragon Age, upcoming collabs & cons, Nevertasia, and more!
