A few of you here, as well as several people on my Instagram stories, have expressed interest in tutorials!
To start, I’ve considered sharing a simple leather bracelet tutorial, just to show what tools are most helpful and to introduce folks to leatherworking (for those who are interested). I hosted a girls' night with my friends recently where we all made our own bracelets, so here's wha...
Hello all and happy start of your week!
Athena and Jackie had been planning a sleepy, fantasy pajama party shoot for a couple of days, and I was on the fence about whether I'd have time for it. Day of- I had FOMO and they were nice enough to let me tag along with like 2 hours notice 😅
That being said, I *also* didn't have time to come up with a completely original look, so it's kinda ...
Elven PJ night?? Decided I was going to this shoot about 2 hours before it was supposed to start, so in a way it was a happy surprise for me too lol. I never think to do casual/slice of life cosplays so this was the lovely idea of @dajackies, and I think it turned out so cozy and sweet! 🫶 More coming soon.

I don't know if you can tell 😏 But I've been sooo excited for this shoot!! Mixing my favorite cartoon with my favorite genre turned out better than I could have hoped, and the Catradora photos together are even more dreamy. 🖤🐾 Thank you to those who suggested this in my Instagram polls a couple weeks ago! Unfortunately we didn't have time for the She-Ra portion of the shoot before the ...

This is Elwynn, who the internet hasn't seen much of as We've only had her for about 6 months! (She's named after World of Warcraft ofc) She got spayed yesterday and hates the cone of shame, but she's doing well otherwise. :)

I don't mean to be posting twice in one day, but I was putting together cosplay pieces today and wanted to give you guys a rough preview! (minus all the wrinkles and dangling armor straps lol.) I'm going to add a little more armor and a necklace to the Adora look, as well as put some worbla and paint over a plastic sword to make it look like a fantasy ✨️She-Ra✨️ sword. If you have any q...

Still a LOT of finishing work to be done on the headpiece, but the bulk of it is all done! And while I won't have a dedicated tutorial for this one, I have been filming parts of the process for those who are curious. This is good practice for me to hopefully film more dedicated tutorial vids in the future lol. I hope you're having a great Sunday!
Otherwise, cosplay plans for this week ar...
I actually haven't made much use of it *yet,* other than for my recent knight cosplay and a couple pre-transitions, but probably will rely on it more this summer! This is a VERY difficult color to upkeep if I'm swimming and/or out in the summer sun all day, so I may just keep bleaching my roots and let the red fade but I'm not sure yet!
Otherwise what I'm currently working on... Y'all v...
Hello and I hope you're all having a lovely start to your week! I have a couple cosplays I own but have never had the chance to film videos in, so I'd love your help in choosing one for this week. Options are...
-Twilight Princess Zelda. I made most of this cosplay but only ever got to wear it to a con once!
-Star (Vs The Forces of Evil). A cosplay I bought *years* ago but never got...

Putting up past photos of my cosplays was recommended as an idea, and it's definitely something I'd be open to because there are SOOO many that go unshared. 😅 This is, of course, my favorite. Some parts of it I built from leather, such as the cuirass, gold tassets, and bracer. Much of it I've just purchased or collected over the past 2 years, but I'm really happy with how it turned out. Kind...

As a bonus from the initial medieval fantasy Vi, I started off with a more casual version for fun, and for the most part, loved it! I bought a tattooed undershirt to try out as well. I'll have to dye it slightly to fit my skin tone better, but it seems like it'll be convenient for future shoots or cons! Speaking of tattoos, I used to hand-draw the neck tattoo but my husband created a 3...

After a whirlwind of new cosplays and concepts, I'll take a breather for a bit! (The casual fantasy Vi will still be dropping on Friday though, since it's already edited :)) Otherwise yeah, let me know what other content you'd like to see on Patreon besides photos! In my Instagram stories I know a couple people mentioned tutorials (like cosplay creation? Leatherworking? Editing? Makeup?) which ...

This page has inadvertently become a Vi fanpage for a minute, but I got to shoot this cosplay with @prototype.fox as Jinx, before she goes out of town soon. :) I LOVED switching it up with the Vi-colored cloud tattoos, though it took me over an hour to paint them! Next on the docket.... An enderman lol.

It feels uncanny valley or something idk

With all the cosplays I share to the public, I almost always edit a lot of photos, and only end up posting a handful of them! Even if they're not meant for Patreon exclusives specifically, would y'all still want to see the photo galleries here?

Thank you and welcome to everyone who's joined the Halcygroup so far! (Guys I don't have better name ideas yet :')) This is Rue, she's one of 3 cats I own and she's an elegant little princess. Also sneak peek of the HTTYD cosplay I'm doing with my friend Athena today 🤍

Medieval Fantasy Vi is HERE! Listen - I know I went a little overkill with all the photos, and sets will likely be smaller in the future, but I was just SO excited to share with you all. Look for more polls in the future about what to create next! In the meantime, I also did a more casual medieval look that will be dropping soon.
