And that’s a wrap for Comic Con 2024! Ha, it was a lot of fun, but I really enjoyed dressing up as Mondo today! I even had a couple people recognize him! And a few others just liked the hair, one of whom asked how long it took me to get my hair like that, which tells me that at least it looks natural enough for people to mistake it as my actual hair, ha.
Overall, Comic Con was cool! On Thursday, I attended a live podcast recording for Braving the Elements, which is an Avatar the Last Airbender podcast hosted by Janet Varney and Dante Bosco (the voices of Korra and Zuko, respectively), and I actually got a trivia question right and I should (hopefully…) get an email from them soon to get a prize for answering the question right. If not… oh well. At least I’ll be featured briefly on the podcast answering trivia correctly, even though I usually suck at trivia, ha.
The rest of the days were a bit more meh, but I still had fun. I won a Pokeball ornament from a Hallmark panel, since I knew how many Squirtles were in the Squirtle Squad, aha. Which leaves my trivia score 2 for 2 at the moment.😅 I also got a free shirt and scarf for the upcoming Yakuza live action show, which was neat. I’ve never played Yakuza, but my brother has, so I was able to give him the shirt at least.
Still, while Comic Con was fun, I’m definitely glad it’s over so I can go home and clean up from my frantic cosplay creating the last several weeks, oof.
Also! On the first day I dressed at Taka, but since I was by myself I only have the one photo my dad was able to quickly take of me before he had to drive off and a quick selfie I took in the car.

Also I made this outfit for a friend of mine (: it was my first time sewing something with just her measurements without it being possible for her to try it on before it was finished. so much maths -_- I was really scared that it wouldn’t fit but it was perfect, also the corset back makes it somewhat adjustable
details and progress pics under the cut <3
She wanted a corset top made from a specific fabric that I had left from something else, so the first challenge was that I didn’t have a lot of fabric left and there was basically no room for error 😅 then obviously I had to make a pattern based on her measurements and I also added a white silky lining on the inside because the fabric isn’t very comfortable. The boning is made of big zip ties and for the corset back I first wanted to use actual eyelets but because of the fabric they didn’t work but just ripped a hole into it 🥲 so I used these plastic loops that are attached to a strip of super firm fabric on the inside of the top. The skirt is a half circle skirt (again), they’re so simple and they just look the best in my opinion (:
Here’s the skirt on me, I really love the waistband, and how the top looks in the back when it’s laced up (you can also see where I had to fix the hole ): )
