Okay, so I am quite nervous and excited. I have been asked to make Wonder Woman for the Norwegian premiere here in June! I have always adored Wonder Woman, and being asked to do this is a huge honor. This will actually be my first cosplay from the DC universe. I haven’t even cosplayed from the Marvel universe yet either, I need to get my butt onto that as well~ I have 2 and a half week left, and I think I should manage if my EVA + worbla arrives in time. Bracers are ready for paint + Arm ring + tiara. The base of the sword is also ready. The dragon details might take me a while as there is many small details going on at the guard/handle. Most worried about the chestplate part. I decided to make it out of EVA, and most of my progress will be up for my Patrons. ;3 Wish me luck guys! Time is cutting it short, so my VLOG’s will be put on hold until then. I plan on vlogging during the premiere day though! Hope you all are excited for that. ;D Read More
I have finally managed to sit down and write this after some days of rest~ I told you all I would be more active on my blog, and that will continue! ^3^ This year I had the honor of guesting expOtaku Almeria in Spain! My heart always drops when I get invited to events, my mind is like “What? Really? They want me there? ;o;”, then I shed some tears of joy. This was my first time in Spain, since I was unable to go last year as I got sick. But WOOOW, Spain is super beautiful! It is so different from Norway, so I was filming everything like a crazy tourist! :’D The first day we got to explore Almeria a little, we went to the beach and ended up eating a lot of the most amazing ice cream ever! So goooood! So the first day was pretty much a day of relaxing. I went to bed at 7 PM, as I hadn’t gotten any sleep the day before. I woke up at 7 AM the next day, fully rested and full of energy! The first day of expOtaku I wore my Sawako Kuronuma cosplay from Kimi ni Todoke for the first time at […] Read More
It is time to talk about my experience from GIGACON 2015! I was an invited guest this year along with Kairi in Cosplayland and Tanzoir, two super sweet girls whom I love very much! <3 For GIGACON, I wanted to finish my Arcade Miss Fortune in time for the Cosplay Contest, so there were many sleep-less nights in order to get her ready for the judging, which took place on Saturday, but I freaking did it! A huge thanks to Chris for helping me cut and sand, without him this Arcade MF would never have happened in time! :O Kairi in Cosplayland also managed to complete her Arcade Riven! So we got to take some super awesome Arcade pictures if you scroll down below~ I would write about each day, but it was mostly me working on Arcade Miss Fortune, so there is not a lot to say around that, aside from that I was working really hard on getting her ready, but of course I will write about all the other stuff I did, so here you all go: This year I decided to sit out with the LAN participants, I think it’s more social and tons of fun […] Read More
Hello lovelies! Hope you all are doing well! Last weekend I was attending KawaiiCon 4 which took place in Porsgrunn! Which is super close to my home town Skien, so it was really awesome seeing an anime event this close to my home town! I had so much fun stuff to do during this weekend! I was a part of the opening show, judged their cosplay contest, and had a panel~ So there was always so much fun stuff going on 24/7. Day 1 Day one started pretty early, I had to get up at 7 in the morning so we were able to rehearse at least once before the opening show went on for real. I was playing Tamaki’s Mother (The Queen), and the Evil Princess, (Ganondorf in disguise) during the show. I was pretty nervous, as we just had gotten into all of the script one day before, but it all turned out great! I really enjoyed playing the part of the Evil Princess, especially since I dressed up to look like Cadence during the play! (My Little Pony related) I’m going to show you guys a video of it later~ After the opening show was done, I […] Read More
I am back home from Stockholm, and started working on my Arcade Miss Fortune again! LCS Stockholm was amazing! It was such an honor being invited by Riot Games. They are always such a pleasure to work with! I was lucky enough that I could stay with my Swedish friend, Laura Craft, during this event! I always miss my Swedish friends, they’re just amazing! Riot teamed up Laura Craft ( Karma & Ziggs), Amenoo Cosplay ( Lux and Annie), Ciwiel (Miss Fortune), Illeda art and Cosplay (Zed) and myself to guest during the event. Most of us knew each other from before, but it was also nice making new friends! Like Illeda, I’d only spoken to her once before. O: Day 1: I arrived one day before the event so I could settle down and wake up well rested. We got to the event around 12:00 during lunch time and got our cosplays on. Riot had put up their own “Cosplay Hospitality” spot where cosplayers could get dressed and got some snacks/water. Erin ( Riot Yuka) took good care of us along with two other Rioters, you girls did an amazing job! <3 After we all got dressed, we headed […] Read More
It is time to talk about my trip to ESL One in Frankfurt! BEFORE THE EVENT Kairi in Cosplayland and I were lucky enough to be able to work with Razer at this event. Again, I feel really honored to be able to work with such amazing and kind people! Kairi and I were making 2 completely new cosplays for this specific event. I decided on Crystal Maiden, and Kairi decided on making the Windrunner! Our only problem was time management, as I had worked pretty hard on my Valkyrie Leona only a few days before! Two days after Dreamhack I left for Frankfurt, so the days were pretty much sleep-less. :’D But it was SOOOO worth it. I was lucky enough to get some help from my little sister, Sophie. So thank god for that! PROGRESS I’m actually quite pleased with how Crystal Maiden turned out on such a short notice! I do have plans to redo some of her parts pretty soon, as she was a very comfortable cosplay to wear. This was also my first time working with Transpa Worbla, and it worked out pretty good! The huge crystal on Rylai’s staff was made out of Transpa Worbla. […] Read More
Woah, where to begin? DreamHack this year was crazy busy for me, as I had been working non-stop on my Valkyrie Leona for weeks! I managed to complete her the day before in my hotel room. I hadn’t sleep for the past days before we had to leave for Jönköping in Sweden. So my first day before the contest I was just checking out how I wanted my performance to be – our stage performances couldn’t be too long, for example spending time on stand-alone props and other things, as they had a very tight schedule, which is understandable! I at least was allowed to get my props on stage, on some chairs, for the act, which was very kind of them! I also had time to “LAN” a little for the first time at Dreamhack! It was super-nice! I only wish I had a laptop, bringing my tower sure was a pain…luckily I had someone to help me carry my tower and monitor! :’D It was cool hanging with those of you who came over to the LAN spot, very cozy indeed! A huge thanks to Komplett for making the LAN spot awesome. It for sure was a lot of fun! Now over […] Read More
Wow, just wow, is all I’ve got to say. This convention was SO much fun! I met new people, the con had lots of content, an awesome cosplay show, and an awesome crew. I even got to see parts of Bucharest in my spare-time, which was very interesting. I love sightseeing, especially when everything is so different from Norway :’D Believe it or not, but this was actually my first Comic Con, and I loved it. I got to judge alongside Shappi’s Workshop – a very talented cosplayer – we’ve even both made Dryad Soraka! xD In the evenings, we usually went to a place called Oktoberfest, (I bet everyone who was at the convention knows where that is xD), a very cozy place with lots of yummies~ I had three cosplays lined up: Fluttershy, Alexstrasza and Caitlyn. Everything went well except that it was so hot on Saturday, and my Alexstrasza wig gets heavy over time, so I tried to endure my best so we could take pictures together during the event. ;o; I’m so sorry if you did not manage to get a picture on Saturday, it was so hot that my worbla chestplate cracked on the side…I […] Read More
Hello all! It’s time to post my first tutorial here! This is how I made Link’s bow from Four Swords Adventure. Keep in mind that I didn’t manage to take many progress pictures along the way as I had very little time to get this bow ready for an event. BUT, I will try to explain the process in as much detail as possible, and I’ve made some “diagrams” …in MS Paint. I will also include extra info on points where I find it relevant, and label it as such. The methods I describe in this guide can of course also be adapted and used help make any bow you may wish to make! YOU NEED: 4 sheets of EVA, some Worbla (Depending on how big you want the bow to be), Gesso, wood glue, hot glue, and acrylic paint. TOOLS: Heating Gun, Hot glue Gun, paint brushes, a carpet cutter, a dremel and a mask to cover your mouth + goggles. EVA foam: I needed about one package of EVA foam. Here one package is 4 sheets of EVA foam. I drew out a pattern, (So I could see how big I wanted it), on paper, and then I transferred that […] Read More
Hello every-nyan! How are you guys? This past week has been pretty creative for me and Buskerud Folk School~ I had my second workshop there now, and it is always a joy to see people eager to learn new stuff. This time we were gonna make props instead of bracers. Reason why I chose bracers for them for the first workshop is cause It’s easy to make, and they get to know the material quite well. So they already had the knowledge in the back of their head when we were gonna make props. There were so many different swords/knives! They chose everything from The Legend of Zelda, World of Warcraft, Kingdom Hearts, Alice Madness Returns, Lord of the Rings, and more! This was the first time they got to work with EVA foam, and they were actually quite surprised by how easy it was to work with. Although the sanding was a pain as we only had three dremels. :’D I wish we had at least 4-5 days on this project, but we managed to do a ton of stuff in three days. We got to the part where they had to prime their props, which was splendid! So […] Read More
