  1. Wesley and I (well, mostly I) decided that in order to warm up for Fierce Deity Link and Skull Kid, we’ll be making a couple of Homestuck cosplays that aren’t quite as complicated. 

    Hint, we both thought the idea was

  3. So, I really, REALLY need money right now.

    I really need money for Otakon this weekend. I have gotten literally 0 commissions and I will get little to no money from my family as we are struggling to come up with the rent this month and are trying to pay for my mother’s physical therapy as she has been in the hospital for over seven months now. I do not beg for money (though if you really, really want to give, go ahead), so I have resorted to selling some of my things that I don’t need as much. If you want to pick up at Otakon, you don’t have to pay shipping and you can pay in cash. If you can’t, I really will need the money through Paypal by Friday and I will ship it out as soon as possible (though I have to charge for shipping). I’m being really fair with my prices because I am pretty desperate, so please consider buying something or at least reblog for signal boost.

    Here’s what I have:

    iPod Touch 4g 32GB: Sold!

    AM WWII Replica Compass: Sold! 

    Lucky Star/Generic Winter Sailor Fuku Uniform: $30 

    Fits sizes US 14-16. Worn once, no stains or holes. Includes top and skirt. 

    I also have an old acoustic guitar for sale. It’s a Trump Model TS27 with light wear. It also has a cheap case. Unfortunately, it would be ungodly expensive to ship this thing, so you’d have to pick it up from my house. I also have no idea what it’s worth. If you’re interested, I can provide pictures. 

    So yeah. I’m pretty desperate for cash right now. Please don’t force me to borrow money from my friends. I have super cheap commissions open right now. Thanks for reading and/or reblogging. 

    Message me here or send an email to milkymaelstrom (at) aol (dot) com if you’re interested. This is also my paypal email.

    Edit: Now with working pics.

  7. So, I really, REALLY need money right now.

    I really need money for Otakon this weekend. I have gotten literally 0 commissions and I will get little to no money from my family as we are struggling to come up with the rent this month and are trying to pay for my mother’s physical therapy as she has been in the hospital for over seven months now.

I’m being really fair with my prices because I am pretty desperate, so please consider buying something or at least reblog for signal boost.

    Here’s what I have:

    iPod Touch 4g 32GB: $80

    It’s in perfect working condition and has absolutely no major scratches in the screen and is not cracked. The metal back is scuffed from normal use. Never had any water damage or any major drops. This is a great price, as ones in similar condition (light wear, no cracks) can go for well over $100 on ebay. 

    AM WWII Replica Compass: $18

    Perfect condition, never used, and perfect for any steampunk cosplay. The piece is functional and completely metal and glass (no plastic) and even has a sight. It’s a bit hard to open since it’s never been used. Goes for $30+ online. Comes with the original box. 

    Lucky Star/Generic Winter Sailor Fuku Uniform: $30 

    Fits sizes US 14-16. Worn once, no stains or holes. Includes top and skirt. 

    I also have an old acoustic guitar for sale. It’s a Trump Model TS27 with light wear. It also has a cheap case.

  9. So I was on Facebook earlier, and some pages I liked posted cosplay photos. 

    The first was at a pony photoshoot, and had a royalty shot. All of the cosplays looked pretty good, and a few of them looked amazing. 

    All the comments complained how fat and ugly the cosplayers were, or even some of the people in the background at the shoot. 

    Another picture was posted of girls cosplaying the mane six. A couple of the cosplays looked decent, but they lacked horns, had cheap wings, and all of them showed way too much skin for their character. 

    But everyone commented on how great they were as cosplayers because they were skinny. 

    And people ask me why I’m afraid to cosplay.

    My favorite part about my Spades Slick cosplay was cutting an arm off a $150 Christian Dior suit.

    And I helped.

    Spades Slick, Homestuck, MSPaint Adventures, Otakon, Cosplay, It's okay though, I got it for $5 at the thrift store,

  13. Progress shot of Wes’s Spades Slick from yesterday. Still need to make and attatch the robo glove, and touch up, detail, and seal the arm. I think it’s turning out nicely. 
Also, my mate is a total doof. <3

  15. I just pumped out a checkered dress for Animal Crossing cosplay in about two hours. The only downsides to it are that it’s a heavy fabric (HEAT) and I have to wear both petticoats under it (MORE HEAT). But at least it looks great! Now I just need some tights to go with it.
