My first actual Loki cosplay shoot 😀✨🐍💚 (apart from some casual 2021 pics) was a (generic) Vintage Lady Loki closet cosplay (in October 2023), with an emerald green Summer dress that is quite reminiscent of 1930s slinky dresses. I also took some pics with another emerald green dress that I dubbed 'casual Asgardian fashion', and you can see that one in the selfies in this post (more to come of both!).
This post features a couple of edits from this shoot, a selfie roll, and some casual test pics with just the make-up, lenses and wig (the hairline is still not customized, but I didn't need to do that yet because of the horns xD).

It was after the shoot that I realized that the green contact lenses that I had worn for the first time that day were actually two different colours o_O The left one is the emerald green that I had wanted, but for the right eye they sent me an aqua one 😅. Ah well, there's Photoshop, and the effect also looks kinda cool, I guess.
Happy birthday / 10 year cosplay anniversary to me 🎉
I made my first ever cosplay for my 18th birthday party and I turned 28 today.
The original plan was to finally finish Avengers Loki since that's the Loki that got me into the fandom and by extention cosplay in the first place.. but I didn't plan for my dad to get cancer, be sick for 2.5 years and then die last week... I simply haven't had the energy to work on him.
Next best thing: honoring my beginnings with Loki's beginnings 🙌 (and yeah I didn't manage to finish him either, scaley underwear will follow)
I have exactly 16 days to make this Loki dress for a local comic-con. I am already ready to throw my sewing machine and myself off a cliff and I haven't even started yet.
I don't think I ever posted good pictures of my Lady Loki cosplay 😊.
The Lady of the Void is one of my main OC Loki Variants from my series "Branches of Time Grow Freely". She's a Loki who died in Ragnarok and found a way back by taking possession of Lady Sif's body. Unfortunately (or fortunately) she was pruned before her plan to get her original body came to fruition.
In the Void, she found herself very happy with this new life of freedom, far away from all the expectations others would project upon her. She used her knowledge in witchcraft to survive and build herself a reputation. Now that Alioth is bound, she cultivates a magnificent garden and loves to welcome everyone in the Hall of Helgafjell.
I really wanted to give life to this character who is always there to comfort me and enlight me with her wisdom 😊.
My first idea was a shawl with a large Yggdrasil pattern, as she loves making complex crochet patterns. I finally opted for a long duster.
For the corset and skirt, I bought working pants in a thrift shop. I wanted her outfit to feel sturdy and also handmade, perfect to go savenging in the Void. This fabric also has a surprisingly satin sheen that looks amazing with the woven design.
For the jewellery, I made some trinkets from beer bottle shards. This is how you make pretty things in the Void !
The horned crown is made of wire. I wanted it to look delicate and Elven like.
And I reached the 10 pictures mobile limit. See the next reblog for the staff details !
