You DO NOT have to have good craftsmanship to be a good cosplayer and have a great time cosplaying! But if improving your craftsmanship is something you're interested in, you may benefit from learning a bit of creative theory. In this video, I've simplified this very broad topic into some starter steps, so check it out and learn how you too can "get good!"
GOOD OMENS PASS THE BRUSH 2: EVERYDAY (WE PASS THE BRUSH*)
youtube
In May 2020, GO Cosplayers worldwide united to create the first Good Omens Pass The Brush video. Now with the release of season 2, the Pass The Brush ineffably returns for its Second Coming!
We would like to thank all (120+!!) the cosplayers who participated in the making of this video, our lovely friend Bailey who was kind enough to sing our silly song** and the guys at @theineffablecon for their generous hospitality. And of course @neil-gaiman, Rob & the entire @goodomensonprime cast and crew - this is kind of all your fault, really (thank you!).
This video was made in solidarity with the WGA & SAG-AFTRA. You can support the strike by donating to the Entertainment Community Fund & The Snacklist.
Yo! Locked Tomb fans! @timmcosplay and friends put a crazy amount of time into recreating the infamous Soup Scene from Harrow the Ninth for your viewing pleasure, and it premieres in less than an hour on the Tube of You. You should scope it out. It's a thing of ridiculous beauty.
There is, needless to say, a good deal of fake blood involved.

This one has been 2 years in the making and OH BOY am I proud of it!! This one uses a bunch of the film skills that I’ve learned over that time, and it’s been really cool to finally see everything come together :D
Its that time yet again boys, it's time for a new cosplay! This time I even made a full length build video to go with it!

This time it's Zora Salazar from Epithet Erased!
Huge thanks to my roommate for taking the pictures
In total this outfit took 106 hours to make, I dyed all the fabric in this outfit by hand, 3d modeled the gauntlets, guns, buttons, and all the other parts that couldn't be made with fabric. The lining is machine embroidered while the strips on the arms are hand embroidered. And now to highlight all the little details that aren't normally visible. For starters the lining of the poncho
Making this outfit I knew I wanted it to tell a story. I had the idea of making the lining of the poncho look like it was an old blanket that zora turned into a poncho. I asked jello what zora's favorite color was and he told me it was sunset yellow. So with that in mind I tore the lining up and sewed in some sunset yellow patches that I made using some fabric scraps. I also wanted zora's entire outfit to be able to change colors in the sun to reflect her sun powers.
For instance look at the color difference in the poncho between inside and outside. While all of the details change colors the sun is the most noticable. I also added a lot of details in like weathering. My favorite example of this is on the gauntlets and guns
And last but not least for details I want to mention is the scarf, spurs and hat.
The scarf took approximately 4 hours to cover both sides with the gold flower and leaf design. The spurs where a mix or filiment printing for the base and resin printing for the spike and caps. While not a true wolf I thought zora fit the maned wolf best due to their reputation for smelling, solitary hunting, and long legs. I also gave zora's outfit an overall sunflower motif for obvious reasons.
Anyways thank you so much for reading, I hope u enjoyed the cosplay!
