I think I got one or two votes max against my idea, holy moly 😭
I’ll get to work on some crocheted Papa squares, which, I still want to make into a sweater since there’s conveniently four, that’d be cool as hell
While I work on that though, I still will be posting the other things I make, Ghost related or not. Thanks for the votes on the poll, y’all 💙
Slight internal conflict:
I want to try making a crochet pattern depicting the Papas’ makeup (ideally to make sweaters), but that will take forever and likely render my blog relatively inactive while I work on that.
Smaller projects would include papa plushies and probably some rats with Cardinal hats if I can figure that out, just to be clear.

Not Ghost related but I made a lil bouquet of roses 🤭
Tumblr media
That being said, I think it’d be cool as hell to have an immortal rose as a cosplay prop or in general. Maybe I’ll make a black and white bouquet, OR BLACK AND RED, AUUGHH THERES SO MANY COOL COLOR PALETTES I CAN DO

GHOULETTE HEADCANON!!
Aurora and Sunshine are siblings. The reason being that, scientifically speaking, an aurora borealis is formed from solar flares interacting with the Earth’s magnetic field and atmosphere.
Ergo, Aurora is Sunshine’s sister since they’re fundamentally made from the same source. Enjoy that little tidbit 🤭

Where is that church located!? The Boston church??? Something I do not know!
Looks like it’s in Tulsa, Oklahoma on Boston Avenue. Hope that answer suffices 👍

Don’t tell me the top half of the Boston Avenue United Methodist Church is where I think it is
Some possible sources of inspiration for Meliora design
It is known that when creating Meliora, Tobias Forge was inspired by the movie "Metropolis" and the art deco style of the 1920-30s. Here I want to share my findings of some borrowed elements in the third era.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The Palace of the Soviets was a project to construct a political convention center in Moscow on the site of the demolished Cathedral of Christ the Saviour. The project was never realized. Zbigniew Bielak wrote in his blog: "Check out the rough concept sketches leading up to this apotheosis of Soviet esprit". Meliora is probably referring to the USSR as a failed utopia.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The building beneath the lustful megalomaniac resembles Boston Avenue United Methodist Church (1929).
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This element is taken from the old RKO building (usually known as the General Electric Building) (1929-31). The theme of electricity is given a lot of attention in Meliora.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The lanterns in the hands are made in the style of the Helsinki Central Railway Station (1907) lamps. Papa Emeritus is compared to Lucifer the Light-bringer, and at the same time he is the bearer of the idea of enlightenment.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Another unrealized building, a concept by visionary artist Hugh Ferriss, can be seen in the City's urban landscape from the music video. Hugh Ferriss was an American architect and illustrator who created many images of futuristic New York in the 1920s, he's also the author of the book "The Metropolis of Tomorrow".
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
This building is the actual Odeon Cinema in Glasgow. It was built in 1934 and was originally owned by the American Paramount movie studio. A prime example of mid-1930s architectural modernism.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The cover of "From the Pinnacle to the Pit" is painted from Nick Gaetano's "Romantic Manifesto." It is a 2006 painting inspired by Ayn Rand's book "Atlas Shrugged".

FINISHED THE GHOST PONCHO AND WAS ABLE TO GET SOME COSPLAY PHOTOSSS
Tumblr media
Ignore the striped insides, I’m just ECSTATIC about how the poncho itself turned out.
Work time: 18 hours
I’m gonna make an updated version of the cosplay given that I wanted a few more accessories than I managed to make before this (I went to a comic con, the poncho was totally a con crunch 🤭).
UPDATES WILL INCLUDE:
A crocheted revolver and holster
Rat with a cowboy hat on my shoulder (also crocheted)
Probably a cleaner interior for my poncho lol
Maybe a black shirt, but I do like the contrast the white shirt gives. Thoughts on that?
Cool thigh/belt pouches
Thanks so much for your patience, and be sure to follow for more Ghost crochet/cosplay content 💪💪

TAKE TWO OF THE MOSAIC CROCHET GRUCIFIX!!
Tumblr media
It came out SO MUCH CLEANER, but I still think I can do better. I just need to get the left and right tips of the grucifix more defined and hopefully similar to the top and bottom ones, and I might have an idea for how to do it.
Stay tuned, and follow for more Ghost crochet content 🤭

Thanks so much!
I was actually thinking about that yesterday! Definitely gonna try to make some of those later, but for now I’m trying to crochet a poncho for a Cowboy Copia cosplay with this design on it 🤭🤭
Tumblr media
(Here’s my concept sketch. I want the points at the bottom of the back on the poncho to resemble Copia’s bat wings 🤭)
Tumblr media
First swatch for a mosaic crochet grucifix! Hopefully I can use this idea soon in an upcoming cosplay 👀👀
Came out a bit stretched, but hey! First time trying mosaic crochet in general, let alone making my own design 💀 I know where I can improve, and I’ll make another post when I make my second attempt. This time, I’ll try crocheting in the other direction too, just to see how that would look. Maybe I’ll get cleaner lines?

Made these six fat chickens today to finish off an off-white skein of yarn. Now I just gotta make lil babies for them 🥰🥰
Tomorrow I’m gonna try making a few swatches to perfect a grucifix in mosaic crochet form. I REALLY wanted to finish off a few skeins today to break into my yarn stash some more, so with that goal done, I’m gonna get going on a crap ton of Ghost stuff 🤘😈
(Also I have about 20 of these chunky ladies now.)

OH MY GOD, BAT WINGS, IT NEEDS TO REFERENCE BAT WINGS SOMEHOW BUT HOW DO I DO THAT
Hey Ghesties and hoes,
I’ve taken it upon myself to get a cowboy Copia cosplay going, and to do that, I need to crochet myself a little diddy.
I’m making a Ghost poncho.
I need to come up with ideas, might need *help* to some up with ideas/designs, but regardless I will be posting updates on its progress. If y’all wanna see the progress on it, be sure to get on in here cause I might even slap some mosaic crochet on there like I mentioned earlier 👀
